Abilities

Sonic Boom has the ability to shoot sonic waves from her mouth at her enemies. She can also toss out eggs and her hatchlings pop out to attack surrounding enemies and follow Sonic Boom before returning to their egg shells.

Sonic Boom is a mid-range fighter character, with her Roar attack dealing damage at close to mid-range and her Egg Toss allowing her to field computer-controlled griffin hatchlings that attack nearby enemies. For her specialization paths, she can either chose to upgrade her Egg Toss hatchlings into being more easily usable or improve her Roar attack's potential range and damage.

Biography

Long ago, Sonic Boom took refuge high atop a mountain peak in the far reaches of Skylands. Away from the mystical dangers of the outside world, she had hoped to keep her griffin hatchlings safe. But despite her precautions, a devious wizard tracked her down and placed a wicked curse on the griffin eggs. Once hatched, the young griffins can live for only mere moments before they magically return to their shells... only to be hatched again in an endless cycle. Wanting to prevent such evil from happening to others, Sonic Boom joined the Skylanders and has trained her young to defend Skylands each time they are hatched.

Trivia

Sonic Boom's silver bracelets look similar to the silver bracelets Cynder wore when she was under Malefor's control and in Dawn of the Dragon. Though Sonic Boom wears her silver bracelets on all of her ankles instead of only her front legs, tail, and neck like Cynder does.
- Some fans even think of Sonic Boom as the griffon version of Cynder due to the silver bracelets they both wear and the fact that they also wield an element that is associated with the sky (Air and Wind).
Sonic Boom is the fifth playable female character in the Spyro series. (The first being Sheila, the second being Cynder, the third being Stealth Elf and the fourth being Whirlwind).
She is the third female character in the Spyro franchice to have children (The first being the Turtle Mother and the second being Nina).
Most fans consider Sonic Boom's backstory as sad and tragic, due to her having to forever watch her babies hatch, only for them to magically return into their egg shells over and over again in an endless cycle after they've lived out of their eggs for only a short while.
