Glumshanks is Kaos' right hand henchman, butler, and only "friend". Glumshanks is taller, (arguably) smarter, more sensible, and slightly (physically) stronger than Kaos, but still serves him.
Role
History
Glumshanks flunked everything back when he was in the Troll academy, from rudimentry detonation to advanced annihilation. He couldn't work out which end of the dynamite to light.
After Kaos abandoned left his royal family, Glumshanks remained loyal to Kaos and headed out into the wilderness along with the tyrant. They eventually went across the universe in search of a portal for Kaos' research of his magic until they reached Skylands where Kaos would begin his plan to destroy the Core of Light in order to take over that world and the universe.
Skylanders: The Machine of Doom
Glumshanks aided Kaos in his plan to seek out the Machine of Doom that is rumored to be an Arkeyan weapon powerful enough to destroy the Core of Light. Although not doing much besides unlocking the tomb to the Pyramid of Just Rewards (when Kaos was unable to do so himself) and holding Flynn hostage, the troll butler commonly corrects his master's errors only to be berated by the evil Portal Master as a result.
When the plan to trap the Skylanders in the pyramid failed, Glumshanks returned to Kaos' lair.
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure
Glumshanks' role remains unchanged as he still assists Kaos in his evil plans to rule Skylands until the tyrant finally suceeded in destroying the Core of Light. The troll doesn't make his actual in-game appearance until later in Lava Lakes Railway, when he was sent by Kaos to sabotage the train tracks leading to the Eternal Fire Source. At the sight of the Skylanders and Diggs, Glumshanks flees deeper into the Lava Lakes. The Skylanders soon rebuilt the train tracks and continue their way through the mines, with Diggs unknowingly almost running over Glumshanks with the train.
Afterwards, Glumshanks returned to Kaos' lair, singed and dsoriented from his task at the Lava Lakes. When Kaos wonders what was wrong and told him that Glumshanks looked different, the troll nearly lost his temper with the little tyrant. At that moment, the Core of Light is quickly repelling The Darkness, flooding Kaos' lair with bright light from the sun. Kaos ordered Glumshanks to take the Lair back to the Outlands to get away from the light, and the troll isn't seen again afterwards.
