If anyone asks if there was one other kid who had the best shot at taking on Spyro, most students at Artisans Academy would probably say the Peace Keeper Blades might have the greatest chance.

Blades has a rather bitter rivalry with Spyro, unfortunately for the Peace Keeper, even when decked out with a wide assortment of weapons, plenty of skirmishes between him and the purple dragon have often ended with Spyro coming out on top eighty percent of the time...

After learning about Spyro's accident, Blades sees this as an opportunity to dethrone his rival once and for all!

Yeah... I don't have much in the way for Blades' story yet, all I know is that he'll be Spyro's rival, and possibly after the reveal that Spyro is incontinent, Bash and Camo may end up siding with Blades, seeing him as the new 'cool kid'.

Although a suggestion I received from someone was the idea that Blades could be an Anti-Bully character and might see Spyro as a villain he'll have to take down which I think could be interesting, Blades could be this character who believes he's in the right, and would do anything to take Spyro out, it gives him some cool Knight Templar vibes.

Bully, or 'hero'? I'll need to think about it.

Funny thing is, I think I've yet to see anyone draw this guy without his armor on. Which I guess makes a bit of sense, as assuming you don't speculate and just work with what you're given from the Skylanders model itself, the end result does look rather awkward, I had to give him hair just to not make him look utterly cursed.

I do have a completed image of Blades with his full armor set on, but as he doesn't don the full set until after the events of SBH, I can't label it as being a part of this story.
