They can use the chain to their advantage for maneuvering, such as by swinging each other around like pendulums or having one of them hold onto an object while the other pulls them around, but they can also be pinned down by special anchors.

Chained Heat: The game has this as a mechanic - due to the snake chains that tethers them together, Spyro and Cynder can't go too far from one another.

Cat Folk: The cheetahs are humanoid felines largely resembling upright panthers with thumbs, and are characterized as fierce and proud, but also seclusive and isolationist.

Bottomless Pit Rescue Service: The player is automatically forced into flight mode if they fall into an otherwise bottomless pit.

Cynder's are a bit more unusual-she has the standard Wind, the less-conventional-but-still-plausible Shadow and Poison, and the truly out-there element of Fear.

Bizarro Elements: Spyro's elements are still the usual Fire, Ice, Earth, and Lightning.

She also primarily uses this to attack Spyro when she is temporarily re-corrupted by Malefor.

Beware My Stinger Tail: Cynder has a blade on the end of her tail that she sometimes uses as a weapon, particularly in heavy melee attacks and her Scorpion Strike (where it is imbued with her Poison element).Watch enemies explode into pretty showers of crystals on contact! After a beam struggle, the heroes finally overpower him.

Beam-O-War: The final battle features one as the deciding move when Malefor tries to kill Spyro and Cynder with his Dark Aether Breath, only for them to counter with their respective Fury Breaths.

Bag of Spilling: Spyro starts the game with no powers, as the elemental and time-based abilities he developed in The Eternal Night are lost in the transition between the two games, requiring him to redevelop his breaths from scratch.Dawn of the Dragon uses a much more detailed, realistic one, with notably less stylized proportions and more complex rendering and shading. Art-Shifted Sequel: A New Beginning and The Eternal Night use a fairly simple, cartoony look similar to that of the classic games.Putting on an entire matching set will give them an additional bonus. Armored Dragons: Spyro and Cynder can find various pieces of armor around the world - helmets, bracers, and hip pieces - which can be equipped to provide various stat boosts.However, it can also be a Class X, as the world breaks apart in the process but somehow gets restored afterwards. It's kind of hard to tell if almost all life gets wiped out and the remaining life survives or if it's complete extinction and life returns somehow. Apocalypse How: The Destroyer causes either a Class 4 or Class 5.
