Description PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION BEFORE COMMENTING. THANK YOU.

MADE: 8/29/14

POSTED: 9/2/14

I'vee been wanting to do my own "LoS" remake of Flame and Ember from "Spyro: A Hero's Tale" so the two headshots are them. For Flame I thought, maybe he could be related to Ignitus in some way and hopes to be the next fire guardian. I know he looks like Spyro as well but in the original game he did anyway. So I'm thinking maybe that's how male fire dragons look. The same horns. The crest (head things) probably not as much. Though maybe it's coincidence, or Flame is perhaps Spyro's cousin as well. I don't know.

Ember I didn't have to do much with. I felt that giving her yellow wouldn't be too good though so I went with purple and pink only. I don't know what element she has, probably also fire but not as strong because maybe she's only half fire dragon. But since any dragon but the Purple Dragons (and rare acceptions of creatures that are not strictly dragons or were corrupted by dark magic) only has one element, her's would still be fire.

The last character to the left though, is Mega. Firstly I wanted to see what she'd look like with blue and silver coloration then I thought about how I could put that into my possible "LoS" story. I know it sounds a lot like a mix of "Fueriah's Dawn" and "Pure Light" but the rough idea would be that Megara is a Black dragon (like Cynder. Not a Kuros though because I don't want to collab with anyone either) but after the "Cynder, Terror of the Skies" business the Black dragons were given a bad rap. 

That said most of them, like the ones in her clan, used their unique branch of magic to change color. Because the Black dragons also had the fire element (hense why Cynder did in the first LoS game) it would be easy to convince the other dragons of their false heritage. Unless one was familiar with the Black dragons though, to an extent of seeing through that disguise which is unlikely to most, they could be fooled into believing the dragon with them is a fire dragon. Even if their fire breath color is unusual (it usually is the color of the dragon's eyes, with Mega though it's white).

So Megara here has been living under the false story as a fire and ice dragon hybrid. Her element still being fire but due to not even knowing what her fire is meant for, able to say it's a very weak form of fire because of her ice dragon heritage. I guess in the story she befriends Flame and Ember and a couple of others, taking place a week after Malefor's downfall to Spyro and Cynder (who, being a more purple color now, can't exactly clear the Black Dragon's name. Especially without any knowledge of her heritage herself).

A brief QnA: 

Q: Is this going to be a comic?

A: Probably, but I'm not sure I'll have the patience to finish it like the rest. I could try someday though, or commission someone to help me with it. For now it's just another idea in my head.

Q: Is Ember royalty in this? She's always royalty in other stories. 

A: Though Ember does look like she would be royalty, I don't think she will be. It is used quite a bit so I think she's just a simple villager who is also a hopeless romantic. She's also a bit of a match-maker as well. Probably why she wears that heart pendant.

Q: Is Megara related to Cynder in any way? Sister, cousin, or some kind of family member?

A: No, Cynder and Megara are only related in that they are the same species (Black Dragons). Aside from that Megara only knows her for her horrible and then helpful deeds during the LoS games.

Q: Is Megara royalty then? And will Spyro fall in love with her?

A: No and no. I never really had a crush on Spyro, having grown up with him as a kid (the LoS series though since I never played the other ones) and I do ship him with Cynder like a lot of others. So no, she doesn't fall in love with Spyro and he doesn't fall for her. I doubt Megara will even have a love interest. As for the royalty thing, as I said no she isn't. She is an important character though but she isn't related to royalty at all. Only in that the Black Dragon king, Blackthorn, always had time for her when she was a child.

Q: what is the plot?

A: As I was writing this actually, I thought up a simple plot. Basically Mega (her prefered name) enters Warfang City where the remaining dragons that managed to flee while Malefor then Cynder were in power, had gathered. They were still celebrating the fall of Malefor and it was here that Mega met Ember and Flame while trying to steal some food from one of the tables. After Ember startled her by saying "It's all free you know" she had no choice but to introduce herself and then Ember introduced herself. Then Flame showed up and it went on from there.

During the festivities Mega asked why everyone was celebrating which surprised both the other young dragons. After explaining about the legendary purple dragon and the defeat of the Dark Master, Mega's interest is piqued. If it's true that Cynder helped save Avalar then maybe Mega could convince this Cynder to help clear the Black Dragon name. So she convinces both Ember and Flame to help her find Spyro (and Cynder) and bring them back to Warfang. Or discover the truth of if the two are still alive.

On this journey they'll meet some friends and enemies (like some Skylander characters, hint hint) and such. And that's all I've got.

I like the way you did Ember & Mega. Most tend to ship Ember & Spyro..but besides that, the plot is original & seems fun to read about. Totally gonna read it (sorry if it is already published XD send me the link if you finished.) once it is finished.

but hey, your "fanart" ability is getting better (I understand & know this isn't really "fanart", but I recognize Flame & Ember from LoS..and I feel like it's fanart for no reason. lol.) nice try  

I wondered how myself (Namira) would be in the LoS universe, but I would pretty much be a black dragon like Cynder & Mega No no, don't expect any LoS art from me besides some Spyro & Cynder art XD

Actually most tend to ship him with Cynder. I've seen few that ship him with Ember but there are some out there. And I have actually done a preview image as well. lol Just not sure if I'll actually do the comic or not though.

It is fanart though. The only way it isn't is that I have Mega in there too. Thank you I guess. (the nice try made it sound like I didn't do well enough. Pretty sure I could do better than you. *shot*)

Who knows.

yea, I honetly prefer Spyro & Cynder shipping, it fits more than Spyro & Ember.


Oh good. 

Of course you can do better XD once I get a new art program. I'm getting REALLY tired of MS Paint, I can do better than on MS Paint, but I literally need a new art program then my art would be better ;-;



True *shrugs*

what did you think I use? SAI? XD I know, I draw great & a master (don't judge .3.) on MS Paint, but still.

I DO use a tablet to draw, but my program is "Sketchbook Express" it IS a good program, but I haven't been posting art from my tablet recently.
