Malefor

The Dark Master

Dragon prophecies speak of the rare purple dragons with a mix of reverence and fear. As the first purple dragon ever born, Malefor proved a quick study in the dragon arts, mastering all of the elemental breath attacks. As his power and knowledge grew, Malefor became corrupt, turning to evil in his quest for more and greater power.

Fearing the prophecies' promise of the birth of a second purple dragon, Malefor led a raid on the Dragon Temple, seeking to capture the egg. Ignitus had hidden Spyro's egg, but Malefor did not leave empty-handed, having stolen Cynder's egg. Raising the young black dragon and penetrating her mind, Malefor used the young Cynder in another grab at power, only to be banished at Spyro's hands. Released years later by Gaul the Ape King, Malefor continues his mad quest and will stop at nothing to bring about the end of the world.
