Trivia
- In the 3DS version of Swap Force, Persephone went back to speaking in her original fairy language. She also prefers dancing and playing than doing upgrades.
- Persephone's odd euphemisms might be a reference to the Orz in Star Control II, another series from Toys For Bob. The species could not be accurately translated, resulting in some words to sound inviting or goofy though they meant violent or unknown concepts. However, Persephone's strange words appear to be much broader concepts,such as "dancing" being used in place of most verbs, "happy" being used for good things, or "unhappy" for unpleasant ones.
- She is also the only fairy in the series to use these euphemisms; her "fairy sisters" of Ancient Wood never talk to the Skylander, while Calliope and Marsha speak normal english.
- Her role in providing Skylanders upgrades is replaced by Power Pods in Skylanders: Swap Force.
- Her name is based on the goddess of spring from greek mythology, Persephone.
- She, Lightning Rod and the Leviathan are the only characters who are based on Greek Mythology.
- She resembles Crysta from FernGully, and Musa from Winx Club.
- She is voiced by Laura Bailey, who also voices Ninjini.
- In Trap Team, some villians comment about her:
- Hood Sickle wonders if Persephone would consider a date with him.
- Brawl & Chain wonders that if it was possible for villians to get upgrades (which is not possible), he would ask to get an upgrade that will give him hands.
- Masker Mind wonders how Persephone casts upgrades.
- Dreamcatcher mentions having been friends with her in the past before she "went all goody-goody", though it's not explained further.
