The Skylanders Academy, also referred to as the Skylander Academy or the Skylands Academy, is an island that first appeared as the main hub world in Skylanders: Trap Team. It serves as the training ground for potential Skylanders. It is also the area where the Minis were trained from being Sidekicks to full-fledged Skylanders.
Role
The Skylanders Academy is the school where the Minis were trained from being Sidekicks to full-fledged Skylanders. The Academy also holds the Villain Vault where, in Trap Team, the Skylanders can switch out the villains they have in their possession.
As the game progresses, more locations at the school appear that can be explored from the courtyard:
- Persephone's area is the first to appear when the Skylanders interact with her.
- Following the mission at Know-It-All Island, an area across from Persephone's house appears with a special gate.
- Following the mission at Chompy Mountain, the main hall can be accessed with the appearances of the Legendary Chompy Statues and Auric's shop.
- Following the mission at the Phoenix Psanctuary, Brock's arena appears as well as an appearance by Crossbones and the rap battle area.
History
The Skylanders Academy was established by Buzz in order to train future Skylanders to protect the Skylands.
In the Skylanders: Return of the Dragon King arc, the school was under attack and damaged by the Undead Dragon King Malefor, who sought to destroy the Academy to build a fortress in its place as revenge for the troubles Spyro, Cynder and Hex had caused him. The evil dragon was eventually defeated by the Skylanders, and although the Academy was damaged, it was set to be rebuilt.
Although the school was successfully renovated, during the Rift into Overdrive arc, the Giants were forced to break off pieces of the island in order to take out most of Kaos's attacking forces.
In Skylanders: SuperChargers, the Skylanders Academy once again serves as a hub world and is viewed as a symbol of hope for Skylands during its darkest hour when Kaos and the Sky Eater struck.
