- – Description in the game
Drow Archers, also known as Elf Archers, are enemies in Skylanders: Giants, but despite being called a Drow, they take on the appearance of a yellow imp. They also bear big similarity to Rocket Imps, which are enemies from Spyro's Adventure. They fire arrows into the sky to strike their targets from above, and use a fiery stomp if you get close to them in certain circumstances.
They return in Skylanders: Trap Team for 3DS, with the name of Elf Archers, and an appearance of a Drow. One of them is trappable.
