- “Roll with the Punches!”
- —Night Shift's official catchphrase
Night Shift is a vampire boxer who is one of the SWAP Force Skylanders in Skylanders: Swap Force. He is of the Undead element.
Background
Personality
Night Shift can come off a bit grumpy, due to being an Undead character. Whenever he hears the sound of a boxing bell however, he goes into a wild frenzy, punching anyone and anything around him.
Biography
From high up in the gloomy Batcrypt Mountains, Night Shift was a full-fledged baron and heir to a great fortune. But one day, he decided to leave it all behind to pursue his dream as a prizefighter. It wasn’t long before Night Shift became the undefeated phantom-weight champion of Skylands, famous for his massive uppercut and for having once bitten an opponent in the ring. Unfortunately, a rule change made teleportation illegal and Night Shift was forced to give up his belt, officially ending his career as a boxer. Crestfallen over being disqualified from a sport he loved so dearly, his spirits picked up when he was sought out by Master Eon, who told him that his skill as a fighter could be put to great use as a member of the Skylanders.
