Aether is the daughter of Spyro and Cynder and Raiden's closest friend. The left of her body is black and the right side of her is white. She has blue eyes.
When the dimensionator takes The Rangers to Skylands, they meet Aether, her siblings, and friends. Aether informs the team that Dr. Nefarious has raided the Skylands. Aether's parents, Spyro and Cynder attempted to defend their land but were captured. Aether forms a close friendship with Raiden. Aether was afraid of flying, so Raiden and Ice Blister teach her. After saving the Skylands from Blarg forces, Aether and her siblings combine their powers and fix the dimensionator. They agree to accompany the team to defeat Nefarious.
Aether is a happy-go-lucky, optimistic dragon whose goal is to be a powerful healer in the future. She is easily trusting and naive, but she never fails to see the best in everyone and everything. She views Raiden as her best friend and the only person who is willing to help or train her to fly and control her powers. She is endlessly loyal and persistent in her desire for friendship, even in the face of others' hostility. She has proven to be sympathetic when she comforts Raiden after Seri dies and when she expresses grief over her parents' disappearance. She is appreciative and grateful for the little that she has, expressing disinterest in attacking others openly.
At first, Aether doesn't appear to have any specific powers. She didn't know how to fly properly, and she had a low self-esteem. After watching Nefarious injure Raiden, her best friend, Aether becomes enraged and discovers she has Aether as her main element, (though she summoned "Dark Aether" on Nefarious). Raiden helps Aether harness her "Light Aether" abilities to assist in fulfilling her dream of becoming a healer.
Trivia:
Aether's name comes from both her element and the fact her skin is both black and white (symbolizing light and dark aether).
Aether is the first dragon and Skylander to speak to the Rangers.
Unlike the other Rangers, Aether and her family are well aware of the different universes and has even heard of the dimensionator.
Aether appears to only summon her dark aether abilities when Raiden is in trouble, hinting their bond is stronger than just plain friends. (Nothing romantic!)
