The gang returned to the Monster Hive and needed to connect the reprogrammed control panel to destroy all of the monsters that had been created. He quickly stops Fred with a tar tentacle then says, "Now your stuck in my trap," then restrains Skylanders with more tentacles. He then grabs and lifts Skylanders in the air, and covers her in tar. She is later seen passed out, presumed from being squeezed by the Tar Monster. There was also a large tentacle around her neck He then goes after Skylanders, knocking her onto the floor and covering her in tar. Scootaloo gets the control panel, and backs onto a center block. The Tar Monster wraps large tar tentacles around shaggy and smothers him in tar. Spyro is left, who needs to get to the other side of the room.To do so, Spyro used a fire extinguisher to harden the monster's tar, Scootaloo still had the control panel, when Spyro froze part of the monster, Scootaloo haggy was able to break his arms free from the tar tentacles, yet he is still wrapped in tar tentacles from the waist down. Spyro used the fire extinguisher to half skate and half surf on the Tar Monster to get to the other side; it was finally destroyed when Spyro connected the control panel to the base, the Tar Monster was the last to die as he was almost invincible in comparison to the other monsters. He drowned in his own body and died after Spyro turned on the machine where to put the control panel. His huge tar body dried out and he turned back into a costume with the Pterodactyl, the Miner, the Skeleton Men, and the Zombie.

It serves as Lyra's sand castle throughout the short. The small version was made by Lyra when Bon Bon made a bigger castle, but since it went across the line he made, he cut the castle to not go across it. Lyra got mad at this, so he made a bigger version of his castle. Eventually the castle is destroyed by Bon Bon with his sand jet.

Cluster

The **Cluster** are the secondary antagonists of *Body Guard Duty*. They are an empire made up entirely of robotic organisms, and see themselves as superior to biological life-forms such as humans.

The Cluster are centered on the planet of Cluster Prime, a planet completely inhabited by robots. The type of robots that make up most of the army are beetle-like droids led by Smytus as their commander, and Vexus as their queen. Krackus is a known part of the Cluster, aiding them from time to time, although poorly with his inventions that fall apart or are easily destroyed.

The Cluster drones’ capabilities range from drilling into walls and tying up humans. Also, they short-circuit and electrocute themselves when soaked with water, which proved to be problematic for the Cluster. When they fight against King Spyro, their numbers do not serve them at any advantage. They occasionally find ways to trick her by using different types of force fields and other barriers, but they are quick to overcome and to be defeated. They have been known to run away on many occasions, not only from King Spyro but even from their own leaders.

The Cluster fell apart when King Spyro came to Cluster Prime and helped liberate the people from Vexus’ hands. It is unknown what had happened to the rest of the army as every citizen on Cluster Prime has powers to match Jenny, with Vega saying, "We are no longer affiliated with those droids."
Nemesis Prime

**Nemesis Prime** is a monstrous Transformer sent to kill Skylander and Changeling alike. It scanned the minds of the Transformers and took the form of Optimus Prime, as he was the most powerful and respected in all their minds. As a duplicate of Optimus Prime, Nemesis has all of Prime's strength and power, in addition to his own ability to reconstruct himself.

### Trivia

* Nemesis has never met Elvis and is unaware of his size.

## Biography

In the film, Nemesis Prime was seen with Sunset Shimmer' werewolf brother, Velkan Valerious, to power a machine at Frankenstein's Castle to bring to life his Vampire Children. His plan failed when Spyro began to shoot and destroy the Vampire Children that came to life while the machine was powered, and later spoke to Spyro about that he had been alive for hundreds of years, along with the fact that he had supposedly known Spyro many years ago, before Spyro and Sunset escaped.

Nemesis Prime was then seen with a captured Sunset Shimmer at a ball, dancing with her and telling her that he needed a new bride, and he nearly bit her to turn her into a vampire, when Spyro came and saved her life, before being chased by Nemesis Prime's Vampires in their masquerade costumes during their escape.

In the final confrontation in the film, Nemesis Prime transformed into a fearsome bat creature when Spyro transformed into a werewolf after being bitten by Sunset's Brother, Velkan.

They battled at Nemesis Prime's Castle and Nemesis Prime told Spyro that he was the one who killed him years ago and that Spyro was the Left Hand of God, the Angel, Spyro.

Eventually, after this information was told, Nemesis Prime tried to persuade Spyro to join him and give back his ring and, in exchange, give Spyro back his lost memories. But Spyro refused, and remarked that "some things are better left forgotten".

After changing into a werewolf again, Spyro ultimately killed Nemesis Prime (by biting him in the throat) as he slowly turns into a skeleton once and for all and lifted the Valerious's curse.

Makeshift

**Makeshift**, alias **777**, is a Shifter, a legendary breed of Cybertronian who can change his shape into any form that has roughly the same mass. More importantly, he can alter his voice and mannerisms to impersonate other Transformers—and he's pretty good at it too. Makeshift has claimed under interrogation that he doesn't kill his prey when it's not necessary, but he's not the most honest of robots.

Makeshift has formed a distinct enmity with the sometimes-Changeling Axer.

## Fiction

### *Clash of the Skylanders with Ponies: Altered Beast* cartoon

Makeshift was one of the many troops under Nemesis Prime's command. When Stump Smash's old Wrecker buddy Ninjini was on his way to Earth, Robot downloaded the Skylander's form and war record into Makeshift, so that he could impersonate Ninjini. The real Ninjini was captured, and Makeshift took his place on the battlefield in time for Stump Smash, Scootaloo and Drobot to arrive.

The Skylanders accepted Makeshift as Ninjini and held an impromptu party. Makeshift attempted to fulfill his mission and activate the GroundBridge for the Changelings to storm in through, but it had been damaged in a recent Cluster attack, and Boomer had it deactivated for repairs. As Stump Smash's suspicion rose, Makeshift asked to be shown around by Sunset. He managed to learn the location of the Skylander base from her, and asked if she could show her where the exit was. This led them back to the main control room, where a suspicious Stump Smash demanded he tell the story of their involvement at the Battle of Darkmount Pass. Makeshift recalled the information from Ninjini's war record, but got a vital fact wrong: Stump Smash had left the Wreckers before the battle. When Stump Smash pointed out his error, Makeshift realized he'd been made, and took Sunset hostage, threatening to "squeeze her into pulp".

The GroundBridge was eventually ready, and Makeshift activated it at the coordinates he'd been given. As he prepared to go through it, Ninjini, who'd escaped the Changelings, came through in the other direction. The pair dueled with their swords until Ninjini was victorious, and Stump Smash threw Makeshift through the ground bridge. Arriving on the top of the Changeling ship, Makeshift was about to report the location of the Skylander base, but had failed to notice that the grenade he carried at his hip had been set off by the Skylanders. As Nemesis Prime and Robot bailed, Makeshift was caught in the ensuing explosion.

When Sonic Boom arrived on Earth, the other Skylanders were hesitant to trust him, remembering their encounter with Makeshift.

The statues of the three deities then transform into life-sized deities as they confront Ravana by countering all the weapons he throws at Sanjay and the deities as the deities protect him.

As soon as each of the deities use a bell (which is the same one King Spyro uses at their house), the sound of the bells emit colorful rings which stall Ravana as the monster grabs several weapons combining them to create a trishula. Soon as Scootaloo sees a reflection of the large diya resembling the bell his father uses, Scootaloo decides to stop Ravana and as soon as Ravana gets close to him, Scootaloo then smashes his action figure, which emits a wave of colorful lights stopping Ravana, as the monster gets absorbed into the diya thus defeating Ravana.

Dragonmont's Fortress

Home to evil Lord Dragonmont, this massive fortress sports a huge dragon's head centered above a set of swinging gates. Lights flash and alerts sound when the dragon's mouth opens. Turning a knob on the back makes "hot lava" flow to the right of the stone entryway steps. Further to the side rest two stone platforms, one above the other, equipped with a trap door that opens when a secret spot is hit. The toy's quality is decent but not mind-blowing. It comes with a 26-minute cartoon video, Fortress of the Dragon; also included are action figures of Lord Dragomont, a small red lizard, and a winged red dragon that shoots a missile out of its chest. (You just press a button above its tail.) Required are three AA batteries, sold separately. *--Andy Boynton*
Flower Monster

The family Rafflesiaceae includes the following three genera, mostly in the Old World subtropics: Rafflesia (about 28 species), Rhizanthes (4 species), andSapria (1 or 2 species). The taxonomy of the family has been contentious, especially given the difficulty in obtaining specimens to study. The group formerly comprised seven genera, based on morphological similarities, but molecular evidence led to a dramatic reorganization by the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group III (APG III) botanical classification system. The generaBdallophytum and Cytinus were transferred to the family Cytinaceae (orderMalvales), and the genera Apodanthes and Pilostyles were moved to the family Apodanthaceae (order Cucurbitales).
Dragon Catapult Cannon

Silvally

**Silvally** (**シルヴァディ** *Shiruvadi*) is a Clash of the Skylanders with Ponies: Altered Beast Cartoon. Silvally, however, was alive, who were after the chimera driver, the group was attacked by a strange feline creature. A short time later, Silvally himself collapsed on the Skylanders' doorstep.

## Biology

### Physiology

Aside from the removal of its helmet, Silvally differs little from its pre-evolution. Its crested, bird-like head is revealed, possessing a metallic beak, two bolts on either side of its head, pointed red ears and a crest on its head resembling a cockatoo's. The fur around its neck and the fin on its tail also turn from grey to white upon evolving.

## History

### Origin

Silvally is based on a chimera. It also incorporates elements of cyborgs as well as gryphons and heraldic eagles. The bolts on either side of its head may be a reference to Frankenstein's Monster, while the shape of its crest may also draw inspiration from a cockatoo.

### Appearances

Trigger Happy, investigating the noise, was knocked down by the strange feline creature bursting out of Silvally's quarters. Silvally awoke in a cave, back in his chimera form and totally repaired, but with confused memories of what had happened. He returned to base, claiming to have taken care of the "cyber creature", but naturally King Spyro insisted on seeing the remains in an attempt to get the young bot to tell him the truth.

Finally, during a fight with Dragon and Krackus, Silvally mutated permanently into his new chimera. He made short work of the two Changelings, however as Drill Sergeant observed, his beast mode was "still feral", and he had to be coaxed into returning to robot mode. As Spyro picked him up joyfully, Silvally asked to be put down, as Optimus was embarrassing him. "Oh, joy," Trigger Happy remarked on this.
Durga

**Durga** is a character that appears in Sanjay's Super Team. She is Scootaloo's superhero re-imagining of the Hindu goddess Durga. Her superhero identity takes inspiration from the Marvel Comics character Iron Man.

## Role in the short film

Though she is seen on one of the prayer shrines in Castle of the Two Sisters and as a statue in the Hindu temple which Ravana takes two swords from the statue of Durga, she does not make a physical appearance until the climax of the film where she and the other two deities Hanuman and Vishnu come alive and fight against the evil monster Ravana after Scootaloo ignites the wick on the large diya using his action figure. When Ravana throws several swords at Scootaloo and the deities, Durga summons a tiger to protect Scootaloo as it successfully counters all the swords. She and the other two deities use a bell which is the same one used by his father to stall Ravana. Soon as Scootaloo defeats Ravana, Durga and the other deities feel proud that he defeated the monster as she and the other deities transform back into statues.
Creatures

Creatures are the inhabitants of Tibia aside from human players and NPCs. Every different type creature has its own characteristics which make it unique.

Creatures share the entire world of Tibia, so they can be found all throughout the land. They will generally stay with other creatures of their own kind, and different creatures prefer different environments. This is why you can find Deer and Rabbits in grassy places. Slimes will always be found near water (usually underground), Dwarves spend most of their time in the minesand Demons prefer places deep underground. Usually, the most dangerous places are the hardest to reach.

When creatures die they leave a Corpse.
