The Darkness is the ultimate force behind all evil in the Skylanders series. It is depicted as a large mass of dark, onimous storm clouds.
Despite being an evil force, The Darkness and its sinister magic can be controlled. Spyro is the only known Skylander so far to use The Darkness and combine its power with its own to become Dark Spyro, eventually being able to control his power and using the dark magic to fight evil.
Story
History
No one knows what The Darkness is or where it came from. Some believe that the benevolent Ancients once took their magical experiments too far and were responsible for letting The Darkness into Skylands. It played a role in wiping out Voodood's entire tribe when they marched to battle the evil force, but Voodood was the only survivor. When The Darkness attempted to corrupt the Core of Light, its influence nearly consumed Spyro, and it was Master Eon's timely spells that saved the young dragon from a horrible fate. The Darkness also destroyed Boom Jet's homeland, but the Air Skylander managed to rescue the citizens just in time.
Elves who chose to be evil and embraced the effects of The Darkness are called Drow, but they retained their love for nature.
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure
For generations, the Core of Light repelled The Darkness until Kaos returned from his exile and destroyed the Core, allowing him to use The Darkness for his own gain to take over and rule Skylands as its emperor. After the Core of Light was restored, The Darkness was repelled once more.
In the 3DS version of Spyro's Adventure, The Darkness came to the Radiant Isles and brought in Hektore, who then proceeded to capture the Mystic Seekers and forced them to create the Dark Mirror that will later shroud the Radiant Isles from the rest of Skylands. After Hektore was destroyed, The Darkness was driven away.

It was revealed that a small, remaining portion of The Darkness was collected after being repelled by the Core of Light. This fragment of darkness was sealed inside a vial behind an elemental door within the Skylanders Academy where no one can gain access to it. However The Darkness fragment was able to transfer its power to strengthen Kaos, who was locked away in his Traptanium prison after the events of Skylanders: Trap Team. With the help from the Darkness, Kaos was able to leave his cell for short periods of time without the Skylanders knowing, and after planning his escape, he and Glumshanks broke open the elemental door within the school and took away The Darkness fragment to be used for their latest evil plan in ruling Skylands.
Skylanders: SuperChargers
The Darkness is set to reappear in Skylanders: SuperChargers and assist Kaos in his latest plan. It powers the evil Portal Master's machine, the Doomstation of Ultimate Doomstruction, and it is now sentient, seeking to not only to destroy Skylands, but the entire universe.

Trivia
- The Darkness bears similarities with the Maelstrom of the now retired MMO LEGO Universe.
- Its role in Skylanders: Giants is reduced greatly. Certain enemies who have been enhanced or created by The Darkness, such as Drow, appear, but otherwise the Darkness isn't even mentioned.
- It is said that Free Ranger was about to jump into the Darkness until he was stopped by Master Eon.
- It may correspond to the element of Dark. However, in the 3DS version of Skylanders: Trap Team,The Darkness was attempting to engulf the Midnight Museum's Dark relics in "eternal forgotteness", meaning that it does not encompass the entire Element and seeks to corrupt it as well.
