Spyro the Dragon

**Spyro the Dragon** is the main character of the fittingly-named *Spyro* video game series. He appeared in the sixth episode of Battle Royale with assistance from Sparx the Dragonfly, where he was pitted against Yoshi and Baby Mario from the *Super Mario* series. Spyro was voiced by Matthew "LeopoldTheBrave" Garner, while Sparx was voiced by 5555thExplosionMage.

## History

Spyro is a purple dragon, a rare species fated to hatch once every 10 generations and bring hope to the world. When the ancient Dragon Temple was attacked to prevent his hatching, Spyro's egg was sent down a river and found by a pair of dragonflies, who raised Spyro as their own along with their son, Sparx. Spyro grew up believing himself to be an abnormally large dragonfly, until Sparx was captured by a group of apes, driving Spyro to unleash his fire breath. Spyro decided to leave the swamp to find his true home, with Sparx in tow, discovering his destiny as the dragon who would save the Dragon Realms from the Dark Master Malefor.
