Background

Biography

Swarm was once a prince from a proud race of mysterious insect warriors that had built their entire civilization inside a giant honeycombed pyramid. Growing up as one of the 9,000 members of the royal family, he was never permitted to leave the hive. But unlike his brethren, there was a magical quality to Swarm that caused him to grow much larger than the rest of his kind. No longer able to fit amongst the rest of his colony, the young prince broke the long standing tradition and stepped out into the open world - where his size and strength would be put to good use in the legendary battle between the Giants and the Arkeyans.

Trivia

• He speaks in a French accent.
• Unlike most flying Skylanders, Swarm (and Gill Grunt) flies in a standing position rather than in a quadruped position.
  • Because of this, they cannot turn around while flying.
    • He and Drobot are the only two Skylanders who can damage enemies by just flying.
• There is also a glitch where if Swarm enters a cutscene or is otherwise interrupted whilst flying, he will land although still be showing the animation of his wings buzzing.
