Mega Flavius

*“What I was going to say is that all warriors feel fear, Lailie, but only the most valiant among us can face that fear... and master it. From what I saw of you on Munition's Forge, you are one such warrior.”*
    —Mega Flavius

**Mega Flavius** is the Titan Skylander creature who appears in the *The Legend of Lailie* series. He is the second-in-command of the remaining Skylanders.

## Character Development

Mega Flavius was created to have a more robust and muscular design that appeared solid, powerful, less lean and lithe like the other Skylanders to reinforce his strong connection to the Titan element. The 'immovable object' of the group, Mega Flavius was inspired by one of the level mesh artists on the Krome Studios development team in 2008. Extensive battle damage was more thoroughly explored and lead artist Jared Pullen liked the notion that this character was more of a warrior than anything else. There was an idea to have Mega Flavius in full plate style armour to establish that concept, but time did not permit Jared to flesh it out.

## Appearance

In his original design, Mega Flavius is a red dragon with light red spots, brown scaley plates on his shoulders, light brown horns resembling a ram's, and a brown spiked tail end. His wings are also red with his battered membranes being brown along with his back spines. He also has a brown goatie under his chin.

In his redesign for *The Legend of Lailie: Dawn of the Longma* by Étranges Libellules, Mega Flavius remains largely the same as his previous design, but lacks the light red spots on his body, the brown back spines on his back (which are only present in his concept art) and his shoulder plates were made smaller. His back is pushed down more than his original design's and his teeth resembles an equine's. His battered wings are strangely healed due to the change in art direction.

## Personality

Mega Flavius is a battle-scarred warrior and the most militant of the Skylanders. He is dedicated and focused on the practical art of battle. His solid demeanor and skill of speech makes him perfect for battle command. Not prone to erratic bouts of meaningless talk (Tempest Shadow) or prideful boasting (Scootaloo) or even fiery rage (Spyro), Mega Flavius is able to keep a level-head in the face of greatest danger. He dislikes cowardice but is wise enough to know when to retreat.

He possesses the heart of a warrior and is the most powerful of all the remaining Skylanders when it comes down to brute strength. He does not judge others by their appearance or reputation, but by their skills in battle, having much admiration for Lailie who proved himself in combat at such a young age. There is an elegant, if brutal, quality in his knowledge and speech, but holds the view that living to fight tomorrow is all one can hope for.

## Story

### History

Mega Flavius participated in the war against The Dark Master's armies. He was assigned to defend Tall Plains during the on-going battle, until he and the other remaining Skylanders were driven back when many Skylander longmas were killed.

### *The Legend of Lailie: A New Beginning*

Sometime after the raid on the Longma Temple that resulted in the smashing of all the longma eggs except for Lailie's, the dark longma Patty came to power and quickly defeated Mega Flavius during battle against the Dark Armies. She imprisoned him in the burning lands of Munitions Forge, the home of the Manweersmalls and the volcano Boyzitbig, in order to drain the power of his Titan element into a crystal to be used in a ritual to resurrect the Dark Master.

   After rescuing Scootaloo years later, Spyro sent Lailie to Munitions Forge to rescue Mega Flavius. Along the way, Lailie had to release the local Manweersmalls from their slavery to progress to the area Mega Flavius was kept in and he was also forced to defeat the Conductor and his maniacal train engine Steam to get to him. After its defeat, Mega Flavius was freed from the machine that was draining his power, but before he and Lailie could leave, Patty burst forth from a lava pit and took the crystal now charged with Mega Flavius's power. Mega Flavius attempted to pursue her but he was quickly dispatched with a single blow from the mighty female. Mega Flavius ordered Lailie to run whilst he went back to the temple for help but Patty heard him and began to chase after Lailie. It wasn't long until Spyro arrived was Lailie able to escape, but in the process, the Fire Skylander was captured himself.

With Spyro gone, Mega Flavius temporarily took over as the leader and explained what Patty was doing. He then taught Lailie how to correctly use his Titan element, and admiring the will of the warrior within Lailie, sent him to Concurrent Skies where Patty's fortress was to rescue Spyro. When Lailie returned with Patty, now freed from Chajju's control, Mega Flavius apologized with the rest of the Skylanders for being unable to protect the longma eggs on the night of the raid.

### *The Legend of Lailie: The Eternal Night*

Mega Flavius was asleep with the rest of the Skylanders when Patty snuck away. When the Longma Temple was attacked by the Apes once again, he helped defend it, this time driving the Apes away and successfully holding his home, despite the great damage the Temple sustained. He was gathered around the Pool of Visions with the other Skylanders when Lailie mentioned The Chronicler and, along with the others, was startled to hear of his existence. With the Skylanders unsettled by the reappearance of the Chronicler, who was often linked with tales of doom, and with the visions of the mountain of Chajju that Lailie was having, Mega Flavius was assigned by Spyro to go to the Shattered Vale to warn the inhabitants of the spread of darkness from the Mountain of Chajju.

### *The Legend of Lailie: Dawn of the Longma*

During the three years since Lailie and Patty disappeared, Mega Flavius waited with the other Skylanders at the longma city of Warfang. The Titan Skylander didn't make an appearance until Lailie and Patty successfully prevented Chajju's army from storming the city gates. When the Golem emerged from the ground and began to attack Warfang, Spyro ordered Mega Flavius to stay with him as they attacked the creature head-on. Mega Flavius would soon attack the Golem whilst Lailie and Patty were engaging it in battle atop of the High Tower. Utilizing his Titan element, he spunned into a cannonball and smashed through the Golem's chest, bursting out of the other side. When he came back for another pass, the Golem hit Mega Flavius with a blast of fire, rendering the mighty Titan Skylander unconscious.

   After the Golem's defeat, Mega Flavius joined Spyro atop of the High Tower as they reunite with Lailie and Patty after three long years. He later witnessed Chajju reveal his plan to resurrect The Destroyer bringing about the end of the world. Along with the other Skylanders, Mega Flavius ventured through the city's underground to confront the Destroyer and attack it before it completed the Ring of Annihilation and initiated the end of the world. When the attack failed however, Mega Flavius noticed the urgency in Spyro's voice whhen the Fire Skylander was giving orders to the warriors and soldiers to take shelter in the Underground City, and the Titan Skylander knew that Spyro was up to something that would risk his life.

Under Spyro's orders, Mega Flavius flew back to Longma City to help move the Inhabitants of Warfang underground in the hopes that they would be safe, before Spyro, Lailie and Patty flew to the Belt of Fire to confront Chajju. He was later seen emerging along with the other Skylanders and the inhabitants after Lailie and Patty defeated Chajju and prevented the destruction of the world. Mega Flavius looked over the horizon along with everyone else and witnessed the creation of a longma constellation in the sky, signaling the beginning of a new age.

## Relationships

### Spyro

Out of the three other Skylanders, Spyro is the one who Mega Flavius gets along better with and have known each other for a long time, to the point of being close allies with each other. When Spyro was captured by Patty, Mega Flavius said that he'd give anything to go with Lailie to rescue him, and Spyro trusted Mega Flavius to take his place before going to the Burned Lands with Lailie and Patty. The two longmas at times have shown their high opinion of each other, and when Spyro was planning out their next move after the Destroyer crossed the Belt of Fire, Mega Flavius stated that he knew Spyro long enough to know what he was up to.

### Tempest Shadow and Scootaloo

While Mega Flavius seems to be closer to Spyro than Tempest Shadow and Scootaloo, he still cares and trusts them, and unlike Spyro he isn't annoyed by their habits, although he thanked Scootaloo for stopping Tempest Shadow from giving another long talk once.

### Lailie

Mega Flavius developed a high regard of Lailie immediately after having met him. He considers Lailie a powerful warrior and eagerly encouraged him to go and rescue Spyro after admitting that he couldn't join the young longma.
