Hey!! Just wanted to tell ya that your art and rewrites are great as ever! Amd I hope your doing well!
If I can ask, what would you do with Magna Charge? I feel like he has so much potential to write about and I really wonder what's your take om him! He's personally a comfort character of mine and he has the most interesting design among all of the Swap Force (imo)
Guess who's back from the deeeeeaaaaad!!!!!
Lol I know.this is MEGA late but I thought about trying to relax my brain with other things before I went back to skylanders lol
Also I'm doing great! Thank you for askThese....
(know it's late but I do get around to these.... eventually lol)
So without further ado, please welcome
MAGNA CHARGE
I know it's not much since my absence but I thought to keep him more intune with his OG design.
Now for your question about his lore, look no further!
Magna charge is an anomaly in on himself. A machine who is a living EMP... the bane to all who's bodies are circuits and wires. Magna was never meant to have emotion, desire, pain, or anything that's reserved for those who live and breathe. No... he was meant to be a weapon, a tool to use against the mechanical armies who claim loyalty to Eon. He is one of many who Dr.Krankcase created to help push Kaos' reign upon Skylands. However, with mass success comes failure. And failure is that of Magna Charge.
For you see, Magna Charge had desire... a desire to be independent, to think beyond his parameters. To feel like those who he was sent to crush under his tread. He desired something more than his coding... he wanted to be free. However, due to his nature, he was the only one of his kind. Any technology that comes near him shuts down and stops working. Mechanical beings are no different. But those who weren't made of metal, those of flesh and bone, they weren't affected by his ability. So he desired to learn from them. And learn he did...
Escaping his creator's grasp, he followed a group of skylanders in hopes of joining them. For which they immediately took him in and offered him shelter. Albeit with caution as he was one of the many creations of destruction. However, Eon saw the wanting in Magna, the want to learn, to live, to experience life beyond just coding and circuitry.
Through the skylanders, Magna Charge learned compassion and the concept of fun. Slowly, he changed his destructive nature and became a being of hope. In no time, he was one of the many skylanders who fought to protect Skylands. During this, he learned to control his EMP abilities, however he still cannot be around technology. But mechanical beings were able to tolerate his presence without being shut down from his magnetic field. Magna finally got settled in with the swap force and became a hero to many.
As for the company he keeps, Magna perfers to spend his time by himself. Taking in the nature around him and simply observe. With how fast he can be, it is always nice to sit down and watch the world go by....But he would never turn down a race with old friend

Man I have been waiting to show you guys this redesign!
Presenting.....!
TREE REX
I've been working all night for this guy. He's so cool and he's GIANT!
(Now for the lore bit I promised!)
Many question how giants came to be. Some believe it's due to an overload of magic in one area... some also believe it's genetics... but one thing is for sure... giants never stop growing. Their sheer size and weight could easily topple any city with ease. But these are rare occasions, for giants are mostly peaceful. Very rarely does one have malicious intend and if one does, the damage is catastrophic.
But most giants perfer to be peaceful, gentle giants if you will. These massive beings are known for letting smaller, much weaker beings to live on or off them. Their sheer size allows for structure to be made and foundations to be set. Creating their own ecosystem and civilization.
Now, there's no real way a giant comes to be, it's happenstance. Anyone or anything could become a giant. The biggest tree to the smallest bee, the chances of becoming a giant is rare but not too uncommon. And once a giant is made/born, their presence is enough to settle any kind of dispute.
Now what happens when a giant dies? Does it continue to grow?
Well, when a giant dies, their body curls up and forms into a new, floating island. Bones become stone and the rest turns to dirt. But that's only if they were made of flesh and bone to begin with.
Those that aren't flesh and bone will have a different end. Their bodies with become pure energy and disburse peacefully throughout skylands. Returning the energy they've taken, back into the world in the giant circle of life.
Now, one of the oldest giants to date in none other the the King of Trees, Three Rex. His power and stature is told throughout skylands as one of the biggest giants to ever live. And to think he was just a humble tree at the beginning of his life. He even is older than Master Eon himself! Not by much but the giant still revels in the fact that his age is what gives him more wisdom than Eon could ever have. In a playful manner of course.
Tree Rex has served under Eon's command for centuries. When he finally retired, he went back to the forest island he originated from and lives a peaceful life of restoring the forest from the damages that poachers and loggers have inflicted.
His footsteps till the grounds as he walks and plants and animals are able to trive. Some locals even live in the mushrooms that grow in his body. In return for the protection, the people help with any potential attackers or maintenance thst needs to be done. A perfect symbiotic relationship.
"HAHAHAHAHA HA! I, KAOS, HAVE RISEN TO DESTORY YOU SKY-LOSERS AND YOUR NEW LITTLE PRINCESS TOO!!! NOTHING CAN STOP ME NOW!!!"
OK I held him hostage long enough, I've been busy this week so I don't have anything else but this... :')
Now you may be wondering,
"How is Kaos in this lore rewrite?"
Well sit back and have some popcorn cuz its a doozy!
"Herald be named, Kaos, last true kin of the portal masters of light. Now deformed and darken by ambition's flame. May he never walk your way"
- Prayer by a lost Mabu shaman
Long before Beauo, and even longer before the academy, Eon and Kaossandra had Kaos. Now, during this time, both were still recovering from the Great War. Their wounds, still fresh on their minds and their fears ran through them like a blade. They were young. Inexperienced, and most of all, afraid. And in their fear, they unintentionally doomed the future of their own son.
Prophecy and fate ran their lives and in doing so, fed Kaos the same belief. The belief of him becoming the next Portal Master that will unite the world once more, in an era of peace and healing. With these goals in mind, Kaos practiced his magics, studied the ancient knowledge of the world, and worked to the point his bones broke and his mind burned. He strived for praise from his elders but nothing was good enough...
But in thinking that he became portal master, he could finally gain the praise and admiration he deserved. All this came crashing down when he received the news about the prophecy... it was never meant for him and in this, he snapped.
All he worked for, all he had done, the pain and suffering he went through was all for nothing. So if he couldn't have what he deserved, then no one else could. Kaos is said to be so evil, just being around him could cause your mind to corrupt itself. There are only a few things Kaos would NEVER do as even he has his limits. But anything from pillaging, environmental destruction, poisoning mythical beings, and murder are a typical Tuesday for him. In a snap of his fingers, whole fleets and army's are destoryed and he wouldnt even bat an eye at it. Some would say that his soul would be too evil for Tartarus. But regardless of how evil he is, the only sliver of good in him comes from his love for those who are outcasts, deformed and unwanted. He openly accepts them into his kingdom. He especially has a love for hydras. Seeing that he can shape-shift into one in honor of his one and only pet (which sadly died at the hands of the skylanders).
In no time, Kaos had become one of Skylands most vile beings. Following the path of his uncle, Strykore, he dove into the depths of dark magic. Selling his soul to the darkness in exchanged for power, Kaos quickly grew in power. Such dark power took its toll on him, forever deforming the young scholar. But he doesn't care....
Kaos wants nothing more than to destory Eon's world and build a new empire. So that no one can take anything from him again. He would have the world, while the rest would have nothing, just as he did.
Now, despite his evil deeds and obviously turning down a path of redemption, Eon still tries to protect his son from his consequences. Mainly protect him from being killed by the skylanders but in his old age, he's finding it more difficult. His son will have to face the consequences but he can't bare to see it happen and do nothing about it. So, he will continue to keep him alive as best as he can, even if Kaos doesn't want him to. Making their relationship more strained than it was at the beginning...
When news of the actual portal master appeared. Using his spies, he watched from afar and grew resentful of the star born child. Now he plots to get rid of her. Despite not caring for fate, he feels that if she continues to exist, he will finally feel the bite of a steel blade against his neck and face the consequences of his actions... or maybe someone will intervene for the third time and leave him humiliated and broken once more.

Was I potentially watching "A Knights Tale" while drawing Blast Zone? Maybe...
Was I also having a stroke trying to design his helmet? Also maybe...
Did I include some of his new lore here? ABSOLUTELY!!!
Regardless.... HERE HE IS!
BLAST ZONE
I gave him a horse cuz why not.
(Also his name is Arthur. 1 like = 1 piece of coal to feed to the furnace horse)
Now for the lore!
(//TW!!! THE LORE IS A BIT DARK SO IF YOU DONT WANT TO READ DONT SCROLL ANY FURTHER!!//)
Blast Zone joined the Swap Force right before Rattle Shake and Freezer Blade did. Giving him a bit more authority over some of the younger members of the Swap Force. Despite his discipline and cold demeanor, he is really kind. In fact, he's quite the chatterbox if given a chance. Especially about his Furnace Horse, Arthur. He'll loves to talk about his horse and horses in general. They have a special place in his heart. But the one thing he's truly known for is his fiery passion for protecting his friends. He sees the Swap Force and other skylanders as apart of his family. If one is in trouble, there isn't anything stopping this freight train from coming in and wrecking havoc. Once, he ate bombs to spite some bandits and then proceeded to spit out the flames to send them running. Saving not only the new recruits but also Eon at the time.
When Beauo become the new portal master, it didn't take long before Blast Zone easily grew attached to the young Portal Master. Often, he is seen checking every room in case there was a hidden bomb or assassin. Sometimes he may go a bit too far but he means well.
Afterall, he'd do this for anyone in his family, without even asking.
. . .
Blast Zone is one of many Furnace Knights who became a skylander. No one really knows how they come into existence but one thing is for certain, seeing one or many means something bad is about to happen. Whether it be a bomb that's about to go off or a war that's about to start, Furance Knights have a complicated history in skylands.
Furnace Knights used to be considered omens of pestilence, war, famine, and death. Often, many see them as evil and sinister. But in reality, they come when something bad is about to happen and try to prevent it... or if something bad has ALREADY happened, they come as damage control.
Back before the age of healing magic, disease and famine ran rampant in a lot of islands in skylands. Due to the lack of medical knowledge and poor hygiene, it was easy for a disease to hop from island to island. That is where the Furnace Knights come in. To prevent other islands from getting infected, they would cleanse the island of all life and transport the remaining healthy population to another island. If the disease was so virulent, they would have no choice but to do what had to be done to prevent others from getting sick. It was a hard job to do but it was necessary at the time.
But that's only scratching the surface of their past. When war was waged, the Furnace Knights were often approached to either fight against the enemy or to create weapons of mass destruction. Regardless of who asked, they would obliged with the right price. They're speciality were fire weapons and bombs. You could always tell if someone has got their hands on a Furnace Knight weapon when there's only a crater left on the battlefield.
But it wasn't all dark, they were also known to protect and fight for those who couldn't do so themselves. Often, they were even be seen giving their own life to protect someone thst is not of their kind. Despite all their dark deeds, they have always valued other lives above their own. Giving the term "Knight's Honor" meaning.
Several centuries later, their purpose would change. No longer would they be made to cleanse or to wage war. In the industrial era, they were able to use their forging skills to craft tools and supply business with fuel. Because of their influence, the first ever coal powered train was invented. Making it easier for transportation. Although, some knights didn't like the change and stuck with their original purpose of forging weapons. But they soon faded through time.
. . .
A Furnace Knight is composed of 2 things, fire and metal. But no ordinary metal, this metal is insulated. It keeps the fire within the armor to prevent it from going out. The fire is what makes the Knight, it is their life blood and one must tend to the fire or it will go out. Furnace Knights don't eat regular food or drink, they instead burn coal and wood to keep themselves going. But they can't eat too much for they might go into over burn. A state where the fire with seep through their armor and make it difficult for the knight to move. Which it why they stay away from anything flammable as much as possible. What's worse is thst they may even risk exploding if they're not careful.
As for any living creature, a Furnace Knight is not exempted from the laws of time. They are still subjects to the forces of nature and can rust or even get put out. Regardless of how old or young a Knight is, when their time has come, their flame will dissipated. Leaving only the armor behind, other Furnace Knights will gather the pieces and create a memorial in honor of the individual. Those who died from sacrifice will gain the highest honor of them all, to be buried in the Hall of Heroes. Where only the most heroic are buried. Some legends even say that this burial sight is the closest to the heavens. Giving the honored knight a place in the heavens above.
"Kaos when down to Albuquerque looking for a soul to steal-"
-- Free Ranger
(Yea, he's in a band, deal with it lol)
Yep! The cock of the block is here!
Look, I know I do a lot of swap force but that only because I know them more and honestly... Best skylander game....
ANYWAY! LORE TIME!
BOOM! CRASH! BANG! POP! This rooster is top of the flock! Free Ranger was a mere egg when he was struck by lightning. The sheer force of it hatched him right out.... But he wasn't like his brothers and sisters....
Oh no...
He came out with some electrifying new features. In fact, his siblings are much duller in color than he is. The lighting had given him a golden plumage and a zappy personality. This, along with his new found lighting powers, had made him quite the arrogant sort... and it didn't help that he was flirtatious too.
Often, he would strut his stuff and show off, making others dislike him. Now, the young rooster didn't quite understand why, he thought it'd make him popular since he was considerably flashy and outgoing. But no matter who he approaches, he was rejected. Leaving him all alone to himself.
Until one day, he heard a cry from his home town and ran to investigate. Seeing a house on fire, he quickly ran in to save whoever was inside. Using his powers, he zapped through and created a whirl wind to stop the fire. This did extinguished the flames and save the people inside but it left quite a destructive path in its wake. Outraged, the townsfolk exiled him from his own home and he was left to wonder Skylands.
His heroic act wasn't left unnoticed, Eon approached the young chicken and offered to help him hone his skill and learn proper control. Free Ranger instantly agreed and was sent to the group now known as the Swap Force. There, he met his first friend, Rattle Shake, another rookie who had yet to master his craft. There, they were taught under the watchful eye of Night Shift and learned to be proper heroes... and to not cause copious amounts of property damage. After a few years, he picked up a small hobby of playing the banjo and sometimes will play with Rattle Shake to pass the time.
. . .
When he met Beauo through Rattle Shake, he was one of the few skylanders who wasn't opposed to the new shift in leadership unlike other skylanders. (Cough cough Spy Rise cough cough)
It didn't take long for him to already start to flirt with the new portal master but luckily it was all in good jest.
Hell, he even tries to get Rattle Shake to get over his shyness and get him to ask his crush out. Even if he seems a bit too pushy and over excited, he means well.
Hey guys! Sorry for the sparse posting, I gotten a bit sick... BUT! I am getting better! So I squeezed in a small sketch of Wolfgang here! We all love our wolf Rockstar!
WOLFGANG
Sadly no silly doodles as I don't feel so silly ATM. But there's lore!
Battered, beaten and left with a broken heart, Wolfgang had sworn to never let this happen to himself again. The musician who fell in love, only to be scorned, wasn't always that way. He was once a talented and renowned musician that traveled from island to island. Sharing his music and teaching others the way of the musician.
His talent had not come unnoticed, many of royal blood had hired the star to perform at their banquets, parties, and ballrooms. The musician's fame grew more and more as time went on, tales of his music spread further than ever before. But this caused other musicians to become wary of the new competition. Especially one in particular.
Well, one night, this rival set up a plan to humble the starred musician, by using a girl Wolfgang began to fancy. The trap was set and the two were ready to be met. But instead of the girl, he was met by a gang of musicians who weren't pleased to see him....You can imagined what happened next....
Despite the musician being broken, a wrathful fire grew in his heart. His sorrows were replaced with rage and his body began to twist and change because of it. With a bow clawed hand, he picked up the pieces of his beloved instrument, and a chord began to play with an evil hiss. A very powerful yet painful one.... the Chords of Pain had been born.
Hearing the chord whisper to him, he sought his revenge. Every blue blood, every banquet, every passerby he came across were subjected to these painful chords. To the point that they would do whatever they could to make the music stop, almost akin to mind control.
With these chords, very few stepped in the way of Wolfgang. But over time, he grew tired of it. Almost becoming aloof and began to think that his way of life was... empty and meaningless.
There were times he tried to lay low and start over. But his looks and features only made it harder for him to do so. With the years of being outcasted, he began to feel there was no hope... until he faced with something he couldn't predict. With so many years of being heartbroken and mistreated, he never expect anyone to feel sympathy for the beast. But yet, someone did, that someone being bone other than Beauo.
Wolfgang, at first, tried to use his Chords of Pain on Beauo. But seeing at it had no effect, he sighed and awaited the routine of getting beat-up and sent to jail and so on. But instead, Beauo had different approach to getting the wolf to open up, she complimented his music. In fact she enjoyed it, the portal master was a metal head despite how she looked.
And by using a shared interest, Beauo was able to get Wolfgang to open up and get to the root of the problem. With some convincing, Wolfgang went to the rehabilitation prison with Beauo so that he can get the help and needed.
After long hours of work and constant visits from the portal master, Wolfgang was able to be released from the prison. However, this doesn't mean he os a skylander, in fact he doesn't really like them all that much. He finds their "know it all" attitudes very offensive. So he perfers to stay out of things that deal with them.
But for his biggest fan, all Beauo has to do is ask nicely ;)
