Special Power: By continuously throwing ornaments at feet, will become a giant frost monster for a short amount of time, time is extended with every defeated enemy.

Appearance: His chest is a giant snowball, with ice armor on his upper chest. Upper arms are made of snow, forearms are made of ice, and hands are made of snow. Thighs are also made of snow, and legs from the knee down are made of ice. Head is a big snowball with two coal eyes. Ornaments are as big as his palms, and a snowstorm can be seen raging inside of each one. As a frost monster, he looks much the same but with spikes of ice jutting out of the ice parts of his body, has five large clawed Traptanium fingers, and has an under bite made of Traptanium teeth.

Personality: Calm and calculating, he knows how to handle almost any situation.

Backstory: Once a regular snowman, a large chunk of Traptanium was lodged into him, slowly mutating him into the form he has now. After a few days of wandering around, he came across two small children who were, somewhat ironically, the ones that had created him. However, they were being attacked by Snapshot and Wallop. Quickly jumping into action, he had utilized his new powers to drive off the two former Trap Masters from the children. After making sure the two were alright, he escorted them to Skylands Academy, to make sure nothing would harm them. When they got there, the two had instantly introduced the snowman to Alpha, whom was their mentor. After hearing about how he had helped them when they needed him most, Alpha asked the snowman to join the new Trap Team. He had gladly accepted, and now defends all with his Traptanium ornaments.

WTJ: To defend all of those that couldn't defend themselves.

Name: Ember

Species: Fire Warrior

Element: Fire

ToS: Trap Master

Move 1: Slash at enemies with Traptanium tomahawks, defeated enemies become a pile of embers that erupt into flames when other enemies step on them

Move 2: Throw Traptanium tomahawks

Move 3: Erupt into a blazing inferno, increasing speed and damaging enemies upon contact, but will only last a short amount of time and will be incapable of doing anything for a short while

Appearance: Tall and lithe, build more for speed than strength. Has slightly worn-out coal-black clothes worn normally by a hunter, has incredibly light armor made from dark red lava rocks on her torso, forearms, and legs from the knee down. There is no armor on her back, because it is actually a bed of embers. Skin is a slightly pale red, and her eyes are a calming light blue. Her hair is red flames with orange hints that reaches her shoulders with the bangs covering her left eye. Her two Traptanium tomahawks look like a regular pair of tomahawks, but with a hole in the blade leaving only the edges of the blade. When she erupts, her eyes become pure blue flames, her hair becomes longer and turns white with hints of blue, and the embers on her back erupt into flames much like her hair. Her skin also starts to glow, and her armor turns from dark red to a bright white. When this wears off, her colors become slightly darker, and smoke rises from her entire body.

Personality: Normally calm and collected, many see her as either the kind older sister or the caring mother. When she erupts, however, she becomes reckless and oblivious to others. After her eruption, she becomes oddly closed off, not really caring for much.

Backstory: When she was only just born, Dreo had his men start hunting down her parents and anyone associated to them, due to them being immune to his manipulation. So, in order to protect their newborn daughter, they put her into an unknown orphanage and told them nothing, except that her name was Ember. After a few years, she started to get teased and insulted by the other kids since she was the only one that knew nothing about her birth parents, or even what her last name was. When she finally had enough at the age of sixteen, she erupted and lashed out at all of the other kids verbally, using every bottled-up emotion in her being to fuel her outburst. Afterwords, she had gone into her more closed-off personality for the next few days. When she had gone back to normal, she had heard all of the others talking behind her back, and spreading rumors to the newer kids. Embarrassed and ashamed of herself, she ran away from the orphanage, and took two tomahawks from the nearby village to defend herself. After a week or two, she ran into a few dozen Drow preparing to attack some of the younger kids from the orphanage. Acting on some unknown instinct, she distracted the Drow long enough for the kids to run away and get help. When she was about to collapse from exhaustion, Frostbyte had appeared on the scene to take out the remaining Drow. Having been told about her heroism by the little kids, he offered Ember a place among the new Trap Team. Feeling unsure of herself, she said that she wouldn't be that good of a Skylander. Frostbyte, however, had insisted, and encouraged her to at least consider it. After promising that she would, the two went their separate ways. After another week, she overheard two of Dreo's Drow talking to each other, and heard something about their master wanting to find and eliminate a certain fire girl using tomahawks... much like he had killed her parents. Feeling angry, she defeated the two Drow and went to the Skylanders, saying that she accepted Frostbyte's offer.

WTJ: Having nowhere else to go, she joined to make sure no one else would suffer the way she had, along with getting revenge for her parents.

Appearance: A woman of average height in her mid-thirties with pure green hair that reaches her mid-back. Wears a simple green tunic that reaches her knees over a brown long-sleeved shirt, and light brown leggings. Has no shoes, and her periwinkle eyes glow with a certain amount of warmth.

Personality: Social and outgoing, she will always be the first to start cheering and the last to stop.

Backstory: Ever since she was little, she had trained to become a full-fledged Skylander. She had actually trained under Stealth Elf for a while, and had even developed a close friendship with her. So, naturally, when she had been taken under control by Dreo, she felt saddened, but had volunteered when Frostbyte asked the Academy who wanted to be an official Trap Team member.

WTJ: She feels that it's the right thing to do, and also in hopes of saving her dear friend.

Move 3: Take on a spirit form, is incapable of actually attacking enemies, but is also unable to take damage

Special Power: Defeated enemies turn into wandering reapers that will follow him and attack enemies until either they are defeated or when their time limit runs out, the reapers cannot turn defeated enemies into more reapers, however

Appearance: Tall with a dark aura around him, he wears pure black Arkeyan armor on his chest, legs from the knee down, and his forearms. He also wears a pure black hooded cape, which trails on the ground behind him. His scythes have a long, curved blade with a smaller blade in the back, with a very short shaft that extends when he's slashing at enemies with them. Nothing of his face is visible, except for two glowing blue spheres for his eyes.

Personality: Silent and brooding at first glance, many are surprised when they find out that he's actually quite the charmer and very social with those he knows very well.

Backstory: Despite his easygoing personality around friends, he instantly tenses up whenever they ask about his past, his eyes seemingly staring off into space. So, they've learned that, like with so many other Skylanders out there, they should just let him be, and let him talk about it when he feels ready to.

WTJ: All he says when asked why he joined is that he and Dreo have met before, and that he wants to even the score between them.

Catchphrase: Reap What I Throw

Name: Mecha Takeaki (I couldn't think of anything, so I looked up samurai names, took the last name from one, and gave it a first name that went with it and had something to do with technology)

Species: Robot Samurai

Element: Tech

ToS: Trap Team

Move 1: Slash at enemies with a Traptanium sword

Move 2: Stab sword into ground, creating a line of electricity directly ahead

Move 3: Upper body starts spinning madly, sword slashing anything that comes close

Appearance: Looks exactly like a samurai, the only thing visible from underneath his golden armor being a single golden visor. Holds a Traptanium katana with both hands, with symbols lining the side of the blade.

Personality: During battle, he is the fiercest warrior that respects his foes, being unwilling to fight those that are weaker than him or when they are down. Outside of battle, he's calm and collected, and prefers to be in quiet places with only close friends.

Backstory: He was the protector of his village, the villagers being robots that resembled Japanese people wearing colorful kimonos. One day, Gearshift had appeared at the edge of the village, asking to come in. Not knowing she was being controlled, he let her in as they were close friends. As soon as the gates were fully opened, hundreds of Arkeyans that Dreo had taken control of had leaped out of the surrounding terrain and charged into the village. Enraged, he went to defend his home, but was soon stopped by Gearshift. The two fought, the rest of the samurai trying to get rid of the Arkeyans. When Gearshift noticed that most of the forces that she brought had been defeated, she ordered the rest to retreat. Once the last of them were driven out, Mecha had traveled to Skylanders Academy to see what was happening. When he did eventually learn, he instantly asked if he could help, and when offered a place as a member of the Trap Team, he instantly accepted. He gave his father's katana to Ember, whom then infused it with Traptanium using her forge, and gave it magical powers for him to use.

WTJ: He believes it dishonorable to control others against their will, and believes that Dreo should be brought to justice.

Name: Vivian

Species: Human (Formerly)

Element: Magic

ToS: Trap Team

Move 1: Fire a beam of energy from a Traptanium sphere

Move 2: Create a vortex using Traptanium spheres

Move 3: Create a shield using Traptanium spheres

Appearance: Looks like a regular human girl in her early teens, with somewhat pale skin, vibrant purple eyes, and short brown hair. However, she also has pointy ears and deep purple markings all over her body. She wears a pure brown tunic that had a skirt attached, which reached the middle of her thighs. She also wore brown tights, but no shoes. Over this, she wears a purple cloak that has a golden trim and was open in the front to reveal her clothes. Around her waist was a long, bright red strip of cloth, which was tied in the front and flowed slightly in the wind. Floating directly behind her to form a circle that looks like a hole in a wall behind her are seven spheres made from purple Traptanium. When she needs them to, they quickly move to her desired position. While floating, they have the design of a closed eye, but when their powers activate, the eyes open.

Personality: Somewhat insane, no one knows what to expect from her.

Backstory: She was a regular girl once. Granted, she loved Skylanders and was a total fangirl, but normal nonetheless. But the day that the Skylanders were taken changed that. She had been playing Trap Team with Hanna when it happened, and her portal somehow pulled the two in. For whatever reason, it changed their genetic structure to give them the powers they have now, along with the changes to their appearance. Shortly after the Skylanders disappeared, they fell from the sky and at the door of Skylands Academy. When she came to her senses and realized where she was, she quite literally screamed. After being told what had happened, she eagerly joined the academy so as to better learn to control her powers, Hanna having the same reasons.

WTJ: This was like a dream come true for her.

Appearance: About the same height as Tessa, but with pale gray fur that has light blue markings. His large and bushy tail is completely blue, along with his wild hair that reaches his shoulders. Wears white tights and a white shirt, along with pale blue armor on his chest and forearms. Has two swords, the curved blade on each being easily as long as he is tall. There's also a shorter curved blade on the bottom. When the flat side of the swords are put together, it forms a perfect oval.

Personality: Impatient and incapable of sitting still for more than five seconds.

Backstory: He grew up in Woodburrow with Tessa, though he went on a small adventure before the situation with Kaos's mom. Shortly after he came back and heard of it, he went to Skylands Academy to become a full-fledged Skylander. While there, he became skilled with dual swords, and was one of the best in his class. When Frostbyte was recruiting new Trap Team members, he eagerly joined, thinking it was an easy way to impress Tessa. Now, he'll often challenge her to races, though he's fine with just hanging out.

WTJ: Secret crush on Tessa. Enough said.

Backstory: The same as Vivian, up to the point where they woke up. She had initially panicked, but quickly calmed down the instant she realized just what was happening.

WTJ: To quote what she said - "Why would I not?!"

Catchphrase: You Called?

What's this?! I actually finished the Trap Team?!

In all seriousness, I'm terribly sorry this took so long! I hope none of you have lost interest in this story just yet.

Now, quick question - do you think I should add the Super Chargers to my story? It means I'll have to revisit the actual story a bit, and it'll take a bit longer for me to post the first chapter. I already have it planned out either way, so it's all up to you. (P.S. If the Super Chargers are a thing in this, they'll be posted the same way, you just have to add their vehicle somewhere.)

Seeya in Skylands, Portal Masters!
