– Villain Vault

Hood Sickle is a reaper who is one of the trappable Undead villains in Skylanders: Trap Team. He was summoned by the Dreamcatcher to stop the Skylanders' progress at Telescope Towers. The reaper was defeated despite his teleportation abilities and was captured.

In Skylanders: Imaginators, Hood Sickle is a Dark-elemental Sensei and teaches Imaginators of the Sentinel Battle Class, changing slightly in appearance.

Abilities

Hood Sickle can strike with his energy scythe and teleport ahead, summoning black ghosts in his wake. If he has active ghosts, they will explode whenever his scythe is used.

As a Sensei, he switches his previous weapon for a double-ended scythe that is now made of steel.
