Plot

The antagonist Red

The game features a fallen dragon, Red, who plans to plant dark gems all over the realms with the help of some of his evil friends. One of his evil friends is Gnasty Gnorc who has reappeared from the first game to kill Ppyro. The protagonist Spyro has to stop him by destroying the dark gems to restore peace to the dragon realms.

Playable Characters
