Possilbly crack pot theory, but backed up
At the end of TEN, Spyro traps himself, Cynder, and Sparx in some form of gem or such to save their lives, and I noticed in the DotD pics, there's nothing that could measure Sypro's Dragon Time ability. Mechanic wise it'd make sense (since I doubt Cynder can weild time), but there may also be a plot reason.
Basically, the only ability Gaul's staff didn't rip out when he blasted Spyro with it at the beggining of their boss fight at The Mountain of Malefor was Dragon time.
So here's the theory, to save their lives, Spyro taped so deep into his Dragon Time ability he destroyed his ability to use it in the future, but it also trapped Spyro and Cynder in time, which may also explain why they aged a bit dispite being in suspended animation.
So go ahead, you can say its as cracked up as what's left of Gaul (got blown down to dust), or give your oppinion.

Re: Possilbly crack pot theory, but backed up
I agree; it sounds very reasonable. I'm guessing Spyro will have to re-learn everything again, and it makes sense that time would be the last of his powers to return, if it does at all (meaning not in this game). Like you said, it wouldn't work so well as a feature in a two-player game.
If they explain it at all, I suspect it will be this or something similar. They might forget to mention it, though, leaving answers to the realm of fanon.

Re: Possilbly crack pot theory, but backed up
In the game, spyro was only able to control time briefly, therefore I think that even though he did create the crystal, that another power is sustaining it, namely the Chronicler's, until such time as needed.

I agree with that theory.

Mm, had to reread that a second time. I think it could work. Nowhere near being "crackpot!" :-P

Re: Possilbly crack pot theory, but backed up
Yeah that's quite believable. Not crackpot at all.
They used a simialr plot method to make spyro lose his powers between games, as I recall - he basically wore all of his powers out.
Just to complicate your theory a little more... remember the final stage against Cynder in New Beginning? I don't suppose it's possible that the strange time shifts and the weird dragon heads we saw flying around there were in fact, the first manifestations of dragontime? or were they some kind of extended power RELATED to dragontime, and to the REST of spyro's elemental powers? I've heard it said that one theory is that the crystal spyro used to enshroud them at the end of TEN was created using the combinaed power of all five of his unique abilities... Maybe he lost EVERYTHING all over again. Dragontime included?

Re: Possilbly crack pot theory, but backed up
After giving it some thought, I thoink that this is a pluasuiible explanation: Spyro used up so much of his dragon time power in creating that cyrstal that he lost the power to control time. he also used up his other powers as well. I wonder though if Cynder will have to learn her abilities like Spyro does n? I'll wager yes.

Re: Possilbly crack pot theory, but backed up
Wow. I was pretty close to the actual theory. Wow.
*stunned*
Still, it makes sense.
