Skylands is the main setting in the Skylanders series. It is a magical world in the center of the Universe that contains an endless expanse of clouds with large and small floating islands; each with its own world, inhabited by both normal and fantastic creatures. Protected by the Skylanders, it is under constant threat of evil.

History

With no known beginning or end, Skylands is a wondrous world filled with magic and mystery, both light and dark. Magic flows through everything in Skylands, from every rock, tree, and beast. It is also home to the Skylanders, including Spyro, who serve as Skylands' greatest protectors. The Portal Masters and the Skylanders protected Skylands and its magical Core of Light for generations, using their magical powers and weaponry to keep peace and balance in their world so that all creatures can thrive.

Throughout the history of Skylands, brave explorers have piloted airships far and wide to see what lies beyond its cloud-filled skies. Some were lost in the Great Black Whirl Storm while others were shipwrecked on strange and dangerous islands. But one thing has always proven true: there is seemingly no boundary or end to the world of Skylands.

Qualities

Different areas in Skylands have different elemental energies. Certain Skylanders will have extra powers and rewards when they're in the area their respective element is stationed at. Some are simply small energies that enhance creatures affiliated with them such as Sunflower Ridge in Perilous Pastures enhancing Tech powers, while others, like the Bleating Highlands nearby, have such strong enemies that the landscape is altered and is closed off from creatures of other elements until its Elemental Gate is opened.

Core of Light

The Core of Light is a great machine that protected Skylands from The Darkness and kept the world together until it was destroyed by Kaos, allowing him to take over Skylands using the impeding evil. Set as one of the main goals in the console version of Spyro's Adventure, it is up to the new Portal Master to repair the Core of Light by finding its missing components that were scattered across Skylands. However in Skylanders: SuperChargers, the Core of Light was destroyed by Kaos' The Sky Eater, leaving Skylands without a beacon of light.

Celestial Bodies

Though stars are never visible even in its night sky (though in the Academy, the Dark element is associated with star constellations), Skylands appears to have at least one moon and sun; the former visible in Monster Marsh and Quicksilver Vault, the latter mentioned in Empire of Ice. The Future of Skylands also reveals that more planets (thus, possible moons) and suns will form in the millenia to come.

Geology

Many materials that don't exist on Earth can be found in Skylands. Sky Iron is a durable metal used for the creation of shields and other resistant objects; Skylithium is a material strongly associated with crystals; and Traptanium is said to be one of the strongest materials in Skylands with the power to trap creatures inside of it and channel elemental energies. With currently unknown properties, Imaginite can also be found and used to shape new creatures into being.

Trivia

  • In the intro to Spyro's Adventure, the Island of Scalos is shown, with the top of Dragon's Peak visible.
  • In 'Spyro's Adventure' and 'Giants' strange creatures are occasionaly seen flying through the sky in the levels and cutscenes, they slightly resemble manta rays, they also have different colors and several wing-like appendages protruding from their sides.
  • Fans are often confused by the assumption that Skylands is the shattered world taking place at the conclusion of The Legend of Spyro trilogy in the Spyro the Dragon franchise. This is completely false, as both franchises take place in different universes and Skylands was likely inspired by the reconstructing world of The Legend of Spyro.
  • Each of Skylands' extremes seem to drastically change its scenery; the outer reaches of islands are the Outlands, its lower areas are mostly part of the Underworld, and the only known regions of the higher areas are made of geodes and known as the Skyhighlands - even higher than that, the Light Vehicle Zone area has an abundance of asteroids and other planetoids, and border of Skylands' atmosphere can be seen. As Skylands is said to be endless, it is unknown if there are areas past that border.
