The Collector, also known as The Colossal Troubletaker by the Twitterpillars, is an unnamed elven girl who resides in Gadfly Glades. She is a hyperactive elf dedicated in collecting many rare items and putting them on display in her garden. Due to living alone in the glades, she frequently talks to her collection.
Abilities
The Collector possesses the power to magically shrink or grow people or objects with a blast of magic from her hands, as she used this to shrink Flynn, Tessa, and the Skylanders down to bug size.
Story
In Skylanders: SuperChargers, The Collector had recently captured the bookworm, Pomfrey, and placed him on display against his will. The Skylanders, Flynn, and Tessa, arrived to find and retrieve Pomfrey, but The Collector refused to let them borrow him. At the sight of a Skylander however, the Collector eagerly offered a deal that if the Skylanders beat her to Pomfrey, then they were allowed to take the bookworm. If they fail, The Collector would take the Skylander and put them on display. Flynn accepted the deal without hesitation, prompting The Collector to magically shrink down the Skylanders, Flynn, and Tessa down to bug size, something she neglected to tell about.
Despite the massive hazards and The Collector herself trying to stop them, the Skylander prevailed in reaching Pomfrey. The Collector kept her side of the bargain, allowing the Skylanders to take Pomfrey, reassuring the bookworm that she would have his new habitat waiting for him when he returned.
