Skylanders Tech Characters
Skylanders Tech Logo
We think of ‘tech’ as something new, but in the Skylands, tech has been around for over 10,000 years. An ancient civilization perfected the use of tech long ago.
At the heart of all tech is the Golden Gear. However, it only works if oiled by a green primordial goo.
Tech Skylanders can use any form of tech as a weapon, from dynamite (i.e. Boomer) to guns and rockets.
Tech is very effective against the element Magic, but is very weak against Earth.
Drill Sergeant is a train-like machine of Arkeyan descent. He is used for drilling and can be found in Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure. He also makes an appearance in Skylanders: Giants. He is affiliated with the element of tech. Drill Sergeant was actually buried in the ground for centuries. In that state, he was nothing but an artifact and reminder of an ancient civilization.
Thankfully, though, one day when Terrafin was burrowing around, the two of them collided! This helped Drill Sergeant’s programs to start up again. He was programmed to obey his leaders, and since Terrafin found him, Drill Sergeant was ready to obey! Terrafin did not like that idea, though, so his first order was for Drill Sergeant to not serve him at all. Terrafin eventually brought him to Master Eon, who muttered some magic words and officially brought Drill Sergeant to life. Soon after, he was invited to join the Skylanders.
Drill Sergeant is extremely interested in machinery. He still experiences the side-effects of his obedient programming, sometimes even calling his friends “sir.” Some of his pals are annoyed by it, but everybody seems to be getting used to Drill Sergeant’s odd mannerisms.
