So today, they released new details on Cynder in the upcoming Season 2 of Skylanders Academy.

Think Spyro is the only purple-skinned, wisecracking, devil-may-care dragon in the Skylands? Well, actually he is. But there’s also Cynder, an ambitious, violet-scaled dragon who arrived at the Academy with a mysterious past that she refuses to talk about. Maybe it has something to do with how preternaturally talented she is in the dark arts, with awesome—and sinister—powers like her spectral lightning and shadow dash. Or how she’s always taking those weekend trips down to the Underworld. Until the Skylanders can get to the bottom of what’s really driving Cynder, she’s content to be the brooding ying to Spyro’s carefree yang, adding a much-needed edge to the Skylanders' fight for good.

A little late but this design actually looks quite good in my opinion. Her thinner appearance makes her look a lot more cartoon-ish and fits the new character.

anyway OH MY GOSH GUYS SHE'S CLEARLY BLACK JUST LOOK AT HER SHE'S NOT PURPLE
