Welcome one and all to the, for now at least, finale of Ignitus' Wisdom. Like I've said before, the remaining three fighters from Challengers Passes 9 through 11 will get their own story once all three come out. Now, to business, there's only one thing left to do. A Fighter Profile for Spyro and Cynder. This will cover their moves, animations, taunts, victory poses, and really anything else I find worth noting. So, with how detailed this game's movesets are, let's not waste another minute! Here we go!
