T-Bone is a skeleton ally to the Skylanders who first appeared in Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. He is known for having a sarcastic sense of humor relating to the Undead.

Personality

T-Bone has an ironic sense of humor and particularly likes undead-jokes. Being dead already, he seems indifferent to the whole 'end-of-the-world' thing. He also helps out because he thinks the Skylanders are 'ok' and seems to envy The Darkness, which he thinks is Undead business. T-Bone also has a fear of spiders, since they love to steal his bones.

Story

Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure

T-Bone first appeared out of the door leading the underworld of Skylands, but he was missing his bones and was left as a head. With the help of the Skylanders, he recovered his bones that was scattered around the beach of the Ruins and was able to walk again with a full body. T-Bone agreed to help the heroes retrieve the Skull Mask from Crawling Catacombs as thanks for recovering his body bones, but he soon ran off when a spider appears.

In Cadaverous Crypt, T-Bone was left behind when he and the Skylanders were separated upon entry to the Crypt. After they retrieved the Skeleton Key, T-Bone puts his head on the key as a joke, and he later opened the gate to the Creepy Citadel using the Skeleton Key. Afterwards, he stayed behind at the citadel's entrance while the Skylanders retrieved the Eternal Undead Source.

T-Bone later appeared at the party that was held after the Skylanders defeated Kaos.

T-Bone appears outside the Undead elemental gate in Cutthroat Carnival. He also appears in Fright Rider's Heroic Challenge, Delivery Day.

Trivia

• While T-Bone is following you at the Ruins when recovering his body, it is possible in certain parts of the main plateau to make T-Bone walk off the edge of the world and fall into the void below, but he will teleport back after a few seconds. While T-Bone is following you, if the player traverses the water around the ruins, he will wait on the beach until you get back. If you go to one of the many platforms in the water, he will teleport to said platform, and wait for them there instead. If you lure him to the platform with a bounce pad, he will be bounced high into the air by it, and either land on the platform way above, where he will fall off it and back on to the bounce pad platform, or land in the water around the platform, causing him to instantly teleport back to the platform.
  • If the player oils the robot that operates the gate leading into the cove underneath the train tracks on the beach of the ruins and enters it with T-Bone following them, he will enter the cove as well.
  • T-Bone can occasionally get stuck on the stairs leading to the main plateau if the player goes up them while he’s following you, and if the player keeps going away from him while he’s stuck, he will teleport to them.
  • When searching for T-Bone’s bones, if you go back up the stairs to the main plateau and talk to Hugo while he is following you, he will comment on T-Bone’s presence, saying “There’s a skull behind you.” if you haven’t collect any of T-Bone’s bones yet, and “There’s a skeleton behind you.” if you’ve collected one or more of his bones. Strangely, none of the other characters will acknowledge his presence.
• One of the Trinkets in Skylanders: Trap Team is called T-Bone's Lucky Tie.
• He is the only member of the Skaletones who doesn't wear a hat.
• Though you can talk to him and go to the mentioned levels as an Undead Skylander like Hex or Ghost Roaster, T-Bone will still describe and refer to the Skylanders as one of the living.
• T-Bone's model was used for other skeletons buying Batterson's pies in the Darklight Crypt instead of Ghosts. This only happens on the Wii version of Spyro's Adventure and Giants.
• In the Wii version of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, the spider that chases T-Bone is a Moon Widow.
• When you hit T-Bone while his head is on the Skeleton Key, his head will return to his body for the hit animation before going back onto the key.
