After centuries of lurking in the caves of Cadaverous Crypts as a shadow, Malefor struck a deal with a fairy named Calliope to steal the powers from the Skylanders, Hex, Cynder and Spyro, with a crystal. The sprite managed to succeed in fulfilling her part of the bargain, but was pursued by Spyro, Hex, Cynder and Wallop soon after they discovered Calliope's actions. Upon reaching the depths of Cadaverous Crypts where Malefor laid, Calliope hesitated on shattering the crystal to release the powers of the Skylanders as it will make them helpless. Malefor furiously ordered the fairy to do the deed, or she would face the consequences for disobeying him. Calliope then reluctantly released the powers of the Skylanders from the crystal, which were then absorbed by Malefor, allowing him to be revived. Almost immediately, he unleashed a devastating fire breath upon Spyro, Cynder, Hex and Wallop, knocking them unconscious, before announcing his return.
