Im new and like to read the chat and im a big fan of all spyro games and after reading merlcks post i started thinking correct me if im wrong but in ANB cynder was a adult dragon and couldnt she have been made back to spyros size and in TEN at the end spyro turns into dark spyro so couldnt cynder have been born like that but is still a purple dragon but just dosent know it or is hiding it and dosent the start of the eternal night when the moons or planets eline i also have a theory is couldnt cynder working for the darkmaster in descise

One thing I do agree with, though is they did a bang up job with her coloring in DOTD. The lighting makes her look dark purple, but she is clearly black in the last two games and artwork. She can't just "magically" change.

ok, now you people don't even make any sense XP

Only Spyro and the Dark Maser are PURPLE... Cinder is BLACK and was under the CONTROL of the Dark Maser... and the crystal was ONLY a form of "frozen" protection... and these are dragons, their life span is way longer than normal. Spyro could be be 20 (not physical or mentally) for all we know.

Which makes me wonder... no matter what game it is, Sparks is always the same. lol, it could be ages on and Spyro is 100 years old... and here's sparks still flying around like it was yesterday!

I AGREE FINALY SOPME 1 who knows spyro cynders black end of dm is 1st pupel dragon and spyro anover pupel dragon but i dont think he is the 2nd caz if he was they would of feard him wont they thinking he would end up like mailfor
