His faith in Lailie is utterly unwavering and he is a devout believer in the Ancestors, truly believing that Lailie is nature's way of balancing itself against evil. Spyro is often calm and collected but has been known to break out into fits of fury, using his fire ability to great effect equally capable of warmth and rage. The top of his back is now dark purple before blending down with his natural purple body color. He no longer has darker purple spots on his body (though they are present in the concept art for Spyro) and his back is pushed down more than his original design's, potentially giving Spyro an oriental look. Spyro was given a major design overhaul in The Legend of Lailie: Dawn of the Longma by Étranges Libellules. A pair of frills grow from under his chin resembling a goatee. His wings are also dark purple with light orange membranes and he has a scaley underbelly. He has dark purple spines that grow from his head and trails down his back to the tip of his frilled tail. Spyro is a purple dragon with dark purple spots, light orange horns, and purple-orange frills on his shoulders and behind his cheeks. The animators also loosely held true to this idea, so without it being 'official', it was the original intention. Jared stated that he had always personally maintained that Spyro was indeed Lailie's biological father and set out with that in mind right from the design phase.

The concept was to re-occur across the three games, but it never panned out. Jared said that the goal was to reveal Lailie's parentage in stages and throw up the notion that perhaps his father was one of two possible longmas one being Spyro, and the other Chajju. Īccording to an interview with Jared, it was originally intended for Spyro to be Lailie's possible biological father. He was originally planned to be about 250 years young at the time of A New Beginning. Spyro was designed by Jared Pullen, lead concept artist of The Legend of Lailie: A New Beginning and The Eternal Night. 5.4 The Legend of Lailie: Dawn of the Longma.5.3 The Legend of Lailie: The Eternal Night.5.2 The Legend of Lailie: A New Beginning.
