IMG 1953

The Dread-Yacht , also known as  Cap'n Spyro's Ship , is the hub world in Clash of the Skylanders with Ponies: Legends  that is actually a cursed ship. It can be customized in the game from  Legendary Treasures  found in the cartoon.

History [ ]

Some say that the person who originally built the ship was a very bad pilot. He was constantly getting lost, crashing into things, not stowing his luggage safely in the overhead compartment, etc. So he decided that since he probably wasn't going to become a better pilot, he should try to build a machine that just makes him very lucky. He could still be bad but he would luck out and it wouldn't matter. So he built the  Luck-O-Tron  machine on board the Dread Yacht (then called the "SS. Look Out!!") but unfortunately, this guy wasn't a great inventor either because what the Luck-O-Tron initially did was drain all the luck permanently out of the ship and it was never lucky again. He was able to salvage the Luck-O-Tron to provide some help to people who fly on the ship, but never when they are actually on the ship. This is the original curse of the Dread Yacht.

  • After its debut, the ship has been badly damaged or even completely destroyed several times, but it is always rebuilt entirely in short amount of time.
  • Despite being unadvanced in technology, the Dread-Yacht does have a holoprojector in Spyro's cabin.
  • If you use anyone who can create large objects and throw it down the side, the object will collide with an island.
  • Many fire attacks will die out when touching the water puddles on the main deck.
  • Hot Dog and Drobot are the only Skylanders that do not sing their names when near the jukebox.
  • Some Skylanders, like Gill Grunt, will have an unlimited amount of water when you stand on the puddles on the main deck.
  • Ghost Roaster is the only Skylander who is able to die on Cap'n Spyro's Ship due to his ectoplasm mode.
  • The people of Ponyville admire Spyro so much, that some of them think he disguised the Dread-Yacht as a rickety piece of junk (when clearly it was).

You have been introduced to Flynn's "new" ship, the Dread-Yacht. But before tracking down the hermit, some replacement parts are required.

Flynn: Alrighty - we gotta make a quit pit stop before we shove off to find that hermity fella. Cali: What do you expect to find around here? Flynn: Oh, you can find a lot of things around here, Cali... Maybe even love -- BOOM!!!

The dread-yacht (somewhat violently) docks onto the side of the island, sending a mabu flying.

Flynn: Welcome aboard the Dread-Yacht, Skylander. You arrived just in time, too. Here's the deally-o - first thing we need for our trip is probably the most important thing ever. Now, I'd go get it myself of course, but because of a 'misunderstanding', I'm not really allowed to set foot on this island... Heh, it's a long story. Cali: -And I'm sure a fascinating one. Flynn: So if you could just - uh - go pick it up for me, Cali can get going on some minor repairs, which... I'll oversee.

Dread-Yacht [ edit ]

Before heading onto the island, you can visit Persephone's Cabin (near Cali) to start purchasing upgrades, though they haven't been formally introduced yet. If you do not wish to purchase upgrades yet, continue onto the island.

Rotten Moorings [ edit ]

Y button

Walled Ruins [ edit ]

There are two more root runners here. Finish them off, then destroy the next wall. Destroy the pile of bricks on the left as well. Go to the left and drop down.

Rotten Bottom [ edit ]

There is a cave entrance here.

The Cave [ edit ]

Inside is some debris, as well as a tzo crystal. These can only be destroyed by bombs, but can also be destroyed with the attacks of Whirlwind, Flashwing, Crusher and Prism Break, and leave valuable loot. There is also a breakable wall. You could grab the bomb from earlier and quickly drop down, enter the cave and use it, but using a Giant is probably easier. The 1st Treasure Chest is revealed. Bust it open, then exit the area.

Rotten Bottom (cont.) [ edit ]

Use the bounce pad to get back up onto the mainland.

Walled Ruins (cont.) [ edit ]

Smash any other debris and walls blocking the path, then go through.

Eon: Using a Skylander of a particular element in areas that match will give them more power and experience.

Crumbling Remains (Undead) [ edit ]

There are a few chompies to kill. As always, you can use a Giant to destroy these walls, but to get the bomb, push all the blocks to the right. Then push the furthest block into the gap to form a bridge to a platform with some treasure and the bomb. You can destroy the next two walls from this position, allowing you to pass through.

- New Enemy: Drow Lance Master (Pointy Ears with Pointy Spears)

These guys aren't too difficult to kill, just avoid their spear attacks. A bounce pad will reveal itself on the right. But remove the boulder on the left first.

Hephaestus' Chain (Undead) [ edit ]

Crumbling remains (undead) (cont.) [ edit ].

Use the bounce pad to get onto the platform and collect the Octophonic Music Player.

Dread-Yacht (cont.) [ edit ]

Flynn: Awesome! Now it's finally a road trip! BOOM!

He turns on the music player, which blasts a funky tune.

Cali: Er... seriously? This is what we came here to get? Flynn: You are right, Cali. Let's get serious. Look - our engine is currently just a family of raccoons.

The ship departs the island.

Flynn: And that's probably not a good thing, right? Luckily, I know a guy who can sell us a real one.

The ship docks onto the next island.

Cali: Wait, up until now, this ship has been running solely on raccoon power? Flynn: ANGRY raccoon power to be exact. In fact, better not tell the little critters they're being replaced. They won't like that.

The Dread-Yacht

the dread yacht

The Dread-Yacht, also known as Cap'n Flynn's Ship, is the hub world in Skylanders: Giants that is actually a cursed ship. It can be customized in the game from Legendary Treasures found in the game. The Dread-Yacht made a reappearance in Skylanders: Swap Force and later Skylanders: Trap Team.

Some say that the person who originally built the ship was a very bad pilot. He was constantly getting lost, crashing into things, not stowing his luggage safely in the overhead compartment, etc. So he decided that since he probably wasn't going to become a better pilot, he should try to build a machine that just makes him very lucky. He could still be bad but he would luck out and it wouldn't matter. So he built the Luck-O-Tron machine on board the Dread Yacht (then called the "SS. Look Out!!") but unfortunately, this guy wasn't a great inventor either because what the Luck-O-Tron initially did was drain all the luck permanently out of the ship and it was never lucky again. He was able to salvage the Luck-O-Tron to provide some help to people who fly on the ship, but never when they are actually on the ship. This is the original curse of the Dread Yacht.

Skylanders: Giants

Using the reward money for "defeating Kaos", Flynn purchased the Dread-Yacht from a desperate seller, who knew that the ship was cursed. The Molekin of Molekin Mountain, and Bowsers from Cutthroat Carnival, have heard or possibly knew about the Dread-Yacht's origins.

Skylanders: Swap Force

The Dread-Yacht took major damage during Flynn and Tessa's desperate escape from the Greeble Airships. It was soon towed to Woodburrow where the villagers began to repair the damage the vessel sustained. After a series of quests throughout the Cloudbreak Islands, Sharpfin and his crew repaired the Dread-Yacht, giving the ship new improvements including a spy mode, leprechaun gold plated trims, a manual, and a hot tub.

Skylanders: Trap Team

During their assault on the Skyhighlands, Cali piloted the Dread-Yacht to help tackle the aerial forces surrounding the pirate hideout.

Return of the Dragon King

The Dread-Yacht was used to transport Spyro, Hex, Cynder and Wallop to and from the Skylanders Academy during their journey to the Cadaverous Crypt. However, as an attempt to damage the newly revived Malefor, the airship had its trajectory redirected by Hex and dropped on the dragon, destroying most of it. The Skylanders then had The Dread-Yacht's remains tied to Malefor and its heavy weight was used to drag both it and the evil dragon to the lower parts of Skylands.

Rift into Overdrive

Flynn used the Dread-Yacht to transport Jet-Vac, Stealth Elf and Gill Grunt to Know-It-All Island. Soon after discovering the history behind the Rift Engines, Kaos created a rift, which consumed the island and the Dread-Yacht itself, leaving its fate unknown.

In the story events of Giants, the Dread-Yacht's bad luck brought misfortunes to the crew while they were on their quest to stop Kaos, such as the ship repeatedly breaking apart in some areas, getting struck by lightning, ambushed by an Arkeyan Copter and later a ghost pirate ship. Flynn however, refuses to believe that his ship is cursed.

After its debut, the ship has been badly damaged or even completely destroyed several times, but it is always rebuilt entirely in short amount of time.

Flynn took all the credit for the events that happened in Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure and used the reward money to buy the ship.

With the right set wings, you can unlock Hatterson's shop. The only set of wings that will do this is the Dragon Set's wings, which are available at Kaos' Kastle.

Despite being unadvanced in technology, the Dread-Yacht does have a holoprojector in Flynn's cabin.

If you use anyone who can create large objects and throw it down the side, the object will collide with an island.

Many fire attacks will die out when touching the water puddles on the main deck.

When a Skylander goes close to the music box on the Flynn's ship, they will sing his/her name.

Eruptor is the only Skylander that does not sing his name when near the jukebox.

Some Skylanders, like Gill Grunt, will have an unlimited amount of water when you stand on the puddles on the main deck.

Curse Magazine recently rated the Dread-Yacht as the #6 most cursed thing in their "Top 100 Curses" issue, just behind the vegetable, broccoli.

Ghost Roaster is the only Skylander who is able to die on Cap'n Flynn's Ship due to his ectoplasm mode.

In the Wii version of Skylanders: Giants, there is a glitch with Eruptor that is caused by using his Eruption attack while standing in a water puddle, then bringing up the Skylanders Stat Menu just as mist rises up from the puddle. If you keep performing this, the mist will stay there. It can lead to a game crash if performed enough times.

The people of Boom Town admire Flynn so much, that some of them think he disguised the Dread-Yacht as a rickety piece of junk (when clearly it was).

The Dread-Yacht's grappling hook can be seen in its back in the console version of Giants, while it had to be installed after the piece was found in the Rust Marsh's old troll factory. This implies the events of the 3DS version took place before the console version.

Masterstroke Casting in “An Enemy of the People”

By Vinson Cunningham

Two men in oldfashioned suits under a lamp.

I don’t know if I’ll ever forgive myself for missing the Thursday, March 14th, preview performance of Henrik Ibsen’s “An Enemy of the People,” published in 1882 and revived at Circle in the Square, in a new version by Amy Herzog, under Sam Gold’s deceptively simple direction. At the climax of the play, there’s a town meeting in a raucous bar, the whole place fit to explode with civic tension and proto-Fascist violence. The theatre lights are up, as if to indicate that the audience is also attending the meeting, and Jeremy Strong, playing Dr. Thomas Stockmann, a scientist armed with the truth but lonely in its defense, is standing atop the bar, trying to get his point across.

At that moment of high drama, one environmental protester in the audience after another got to their feet and began to fulminate about the climate. “I am very, very sorry to interrupt your night and this amazing performance!” one shouted. “The oceans are acidifying! The oceans are rising and will swallow this city and this entire theatre whole!” The protest action, with its references to science and to government inertia, and with its tightrope walking along the boundaries of free speech, perfectly matched the tone and the content of the play. Many people in attendance thought (wrongly) that it was a contemporizing gag—a possibly corny play at relevance—planned by Gold. The truth can be an off-putting distraction. It changes trajectories; slows down the blithe, fleet motion of progress; makes your big night out at the theatre a weird and confusing ordeal.

Thomas Stockmann is a proud, sad, bombastic, socially clumsy, utterly sincere doctor working as the medical director of the baths in a cloistered Norwegian town in the late nineteenth century. He’s a widower who has become passionate about doing what’s right. His brother Peter (Michael Imperioli) is the mayor—and therefore, quite awkwardly, his domineering boss. Thomas likes to host young people at his house, though he has his daughter, Petra (Victoria Pedretti), do the real work of hosting: she serves food, pours drinks, entertains the retinue of journalists, seafarers, and political wannabes who are constantly stopping by. Thomas sits off to the side and admires their energy and righteous countercultural beliefs. He’s excited for the future, when they’ll take over.

The recently opened baths, Thomas’s remit, promise to be an important source of revenue for the town. Sick people from all over will come to convalesce and rest up. It’s inconvenient, then, perhaps catastrophically so, when Thomas reveals a finding that he’s been working toward in secret: the baths use water that has been contaminated by the local tanneries. It’s full of bacteria. (His father-in-law, first funny then menacing, calls the bacteria “invisible animals.”) After Thomas offers his report to Peter and makes a series of suggestions to right this potentially fatal wrong, a veil lifts, and Peter’s identity as, above all, a political operator, becomes evident:

P ETER : This morning I stopped by to speak with the town engineer. I brought up your proposals, sort of “by the way,” as something we might consider down the line— T HOMAS : Down the line! P ETER : He was very amused by the impracticality of my idea. Tell me, Thomas—have you thought about how much what you’re proposing would cost? According to the engineer, it would be on the order of three, four hundred thousand crowns. Maybe more. T HOMAS : That much. P ETER : Yes. “That much.” And the work would take at least two years. T HOMAS : I’m sorry to hear that. P ETER : So what would we do with the Baths in the meantime? I guess we’d close them. We’d have to. Unless you think the customers will still show up this summer once the rumor gets out that the water is a health risk.

This bit of climactic dialogue, hammered into plain yet insinuating and increasingly dangerous English by Herzog, is emblematic of this new production. Ibsen is a locus of particular interest for Herzog: her transfiguration of “A Doll’s House” last year, starring Jessica Chastain, took a similar tack. She finds the word-by-word humor in Ibsen and throws it like a huge, falsely comforting blanket over the social trouble that the plays describe. In her argot, Ibsen’s characters sound like slow-talking, fast-thinking products of migration across the U.S.—people with country manners and city coolness lurking within. Listening to her translations is like riding in a placid yacht over shark-infested waters.

Herzog’s take on Ibsen reminds me of Tomas Tranströmer’s gently troubling poems, as translated, from the Swedish, by Patty Crane. From “After Someone’s Death”:

You can still shuffle along on skis in the winter sun through groves where last year’s leaves hang on. Like pages torn from old telephone books— all of the names swallowed up by the cold.

In “Enemy,” a slow dread, first muffled but gradually made all too clear, is prompted by the organism of the town as a whole, fickle public, whose whims reveal another kind of invisible animal—discernible only by the steady changing of the collective mood. Peter is opposed to Thomas’s proposals from the start, but at the outset Thomas is supported by Hovstad, the dynamic publisher of a liberal paper (played in sharp, ironic, and deadly accurate style by Caleb Eberhardt). Hovstad, one of the young people who often gather at the Stockmanns’ house, has published several of Thomas’s ardent articles and seems to respect the older man. The paper’s printer, Aslaksen (the always excellent and here magnificently funny Thomas Jay Ryan), is a cautious moderate who promises to corral the working class and bring them over to Thomas’s side. But in the course of the play, for reasons both deeply personal and politically expedient, each man becomes an impediment to justice.

It was a masterstroke to cast Jeremy Strong in the role of Thomas Stockmann. He’s a patient, nuanced performer with an instinct for the rhythms of everyday talk. He and Herzog both find conversational menace like certain musicians sniff out a perfect pitch. He speaks at a measured pace but with constant urgency, almost a strain, even when Thomas is at his happiest, giving toasts and mingling with the people he thinks are his friends. His tenor has currents of impatient energy running under it. His declarative sentences turn upward at the end, like a series of unanswerable questions.

Strong’s public persona—as a dead-serious, process-obsessed actor (as portrayed in a Profile in this magazine), never hesitant to be an inconvenience if true art hangs in the balance—is at work here, too. Not unlike the sad clown Kendall Roy, from “Succession,” the character with whom Strong is most likely to be forever identified, Thomas makes grand attempts at rhetoric that don’t quite succeed, perhaps, paradoxically, because they are so earnest and deeply felt.

At the big moment when—stymied by the multiheaded hydra of the government and the press—Thomas tries to read his findings aloud, he does so in an increasingly tragicomic mode. Defending his own expertise, he makes a bizarre dog analogy: “There’s a difference between a stray and a poodle, isn’t there? There’s a fundamental difference. I’m not saying those mutts wouldn’t be capable of learning good behavior if they’d had the right opportunities, but I wouldn’t want one living in my house. . . . But somehow when it comes to humans—when I say I have studied biology, I know things you do not know, you should listen to me, that—that you can’t abide.”

It’s a perfect echo of the righteous but—let’s face it—heretofore largely ineffective pleas of climate scientists, whose cries from the heart have become the droning background to our march toward disaster. I sat in the theatre, the day after the protest, hoping that the activists would strike again, make one more nice, big mess.

When the protesters had marched toward the stage, causing barely comprehended chaos, both Imperioli and Ryan had initially stayed in character as they attempted to fend them off. Strong, though, authentic impulses all the way down, reacted as Thomas, on the protesters’ side. “Let him speak!” he implored. I’m certain he meant it. Thomas surely would have. ♦

Personality

Cali is one of Skylands ' most daring explorers. She describes herself as being tough and laughs in the face of danger. She's shown to be rather smart and quick to make the right decisions in perilous situations, but she is also shown to have a very caring and even somewhat motherly side to her. She is never afraid of being captured by her enemies, which is lucky as it seems to happen quite a lot. [1] Despite this, as revealed in Prism Break and Sunburn 's Heroic Challenges, she hates spiders. If you're looking for adventure, Cali is the natural choice as a trainer to prepare young Skylanders for future missions.

One of Skylands' greatest explorers, Cali originally set out to map every single island before she was forced to give up after the number 4,367. She settled in Eon's Citadel where she helped train the Skylanders. [2]

Cali Captured

Cali is held by a Drow Witch disguised as a young Mabu girl while Kaos prepares to capture her.

Cali was among many who attended the Annual Storm Titan Games to see Lightning Rod in action with two other Skylanders, Pop Fizz and Drobot . When Flynn 's balloon was accidentally struck down by Rod's hammer, the Skylanders quickly saved the day, and Cali was filled in with the details about the Mask of Power and why Kaos was after its fragments. The female Mabu heard that the Air segment to the Mask of Power had seemingly taken on the form of a Land Whale , which Cali revealed to have seen long ago at a Cyclops city called Tempest Towers, where the Cyclops Queen kept her collection of never-before-seen animals.

Due to her knowledge to where Tempest Towers laid, Kaos kidnapped Cali with the help of a disguised Drow Witch , and the Skylanders quickly gave chase to save her. During their pursuit through the Sea of Storms, the Skylanders managed to beat Kaos to the Tempest Towers first thanks to Drobot's Afterburners. Cali was soon rescued by Flynn and Double Trouble , and they gained control over Kaos's Drow zeppelin to get the other Skylanders off the island. It was later revealed that the Air segment to the Mask of Power wasn't the Land Whale, but the Cyclops Queen's tower that held her animal collection. 

Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure

Cali was captured by the Drow and held prisoner at the edge of  Perilous Pastures . She was later freed by the Skylanders and returned to the Ruins , where she volunteered to help the Skylanders by offering them Heroic Challenges to train them. After Kaos 's defeat, Cali began to tolerate Flynn more when he complained about the ramblings of the captive Kaos, realizing that she found something she and Flynn agree on. She then remarked to Flynn that he was okay when he's not saying something ridiculous (which he obliviously agrees). She also appeared at the party being held after the game is completed, where she will encourage you to try and beat all her Heroic Challenges.

Cali joined Flynn on a quest to stop Kaos from ruling Skylands with an army of Arkeyans . On board the Dread-Yacht , she took part in helping the Skylander with Heroic Challenges and later helped out by planting explosives in Troll Home Security for the Skylander to get through the stronghold.

In the 3DS version, Cali helps the Skylander in their fight to stop Captain Frightbeard , interrupting her exploration of Sand Dune Seas.

Cali made a brief cameo at the beginning of the game, trying to tell Flynn something while he was on vacation at the Cloudbreak Islands . However Flynn cut her off when he desperately tried to retrieve his volcano hat that was blown away by the wind.

3DS Version

While the residents of  Boom Town was celebrating Flynn's 'heroism', the lord of the underworld, Count Moneybone , kidnapped Cali and turned her into one of the Undead to be his bride before beginning his evil plot to rule Skylands. Cali was freed and returned to normal when Moneybone was defeated and his plan foiled. However the Undead transformation has left a side-effect on Cali as she has been known to howl at nonexistent moon every now and then. [2]

The Kaos Trap

Cali and Tessa2

Cali talking with Tessa in Skylanders Issue #2

Cali participated in the opening to the Skylanders Academy when Flynn's Dread-Yacht piloted by the Minis was soaring out of control. When Tessa managed to land the Dread-Yacht with its passengers intact, the group discovered that Flynn had walked overboard with Chopper having gone after him. Cali and Tessa decided to go and find Flynn, coming upon the real Weeruptor along the way. They eventually found Flynn and Chopper being attacked by a squadron of Troll Bombers and saved them with the help of Weeruptor and Wildfire . When Flynn claimed that Cali and Tessa were worried about him, the two girls glanced away sheepishly, but denied it by saying that they would save any of their friends if they were in trouble. 

By the time Cali and others arrived back at the Academy, Kaos was being driven out by Food Fight , saving the Minis from danger.

Cali, along with Hugo and Flynn, participated in the grand opening of the Skylanders Academy when a large fragment of Cloudcracker Prison crashed into the nearby Soda Springs . After the Skylanders went with Buzz to the Springs, and defeated both Sheep Creep and The Gulper , Cali assisted the Skylanders on their quest by piloting Flynn's ship when he became too injured after a later mission. When navigating through The Golden Desert  with the Skylanders, Cali was turned to a gold statue and kidnapped by the Golden Queen . She was eventually rescued after the Skylanders defeated the Queen's minions in her desert arena. Fortunately, Mags was able to restore Cali to normal by using her De-Goldifier, and Cali soon accompanied the Skylanders to help them take down the Golden Queen within her lair.

Return of the Dragon King

Cali, Flynn and Gurglefin were on en-route to the Wilikin Village by ship when they were ambushed by Captain Frightbeard and his crew of Cyclopses . Anticipating the ambush, the Skylanders were hidden below deck and attacked the pirates when they were searching around for treasure. The Skylanders defeated Frightbeard and his crew, but not before noticing that there was something wrong with Spyro 's powers.

When the Skylanders, Spyro, Cynder , Hex and Wallop were fighting a revived Malefor , Cali was among the spectators who witnessed the battle on an nearby island. Wheellock noted how Cali had seen the Skylanders overcome impossible odds compared to Malefor, and the female Mabu confirmed this, firmly believing that the Skylanders wouldn't give up.

Rift into Overdrive

Cali took part in the last day of school party at the Skylanders Academy. Three months later, she accompanied a few Skylanders and Sharpfin in search of Kaos, who escaped from his Traptanium prison. They came under attack by Dark Drow at Kaos' abandoned fortress and were nearly consumed by a rift. Although injured during the escape, Cali stayed behind at the Academy to help protect it from whatever attack Kaos may throw at them. During the battle for the school, Cali, Flynn, and Hugo were captured and brought to Count Moneybone's prison ship.

Imprisoned onboard Moneybone's vessel, Hugo was able to create a portal for the Portal Master to transport their Skylanders to Skylands. With the help of the Skylanders and their vehicles , Cali and the other prisoners were able to escape and reach the Skylanders Academy safely. Afterwards, she helped the Skylanders in their fight against Kaos, The Darkness and The Sky Eater .

Other appearances

Cali is an unlockable companion in Skylanders: Lost Islands , and can be purchased with 3,500 Gems. Upon being unlocked, she doubles the amount of Gold rewards for all Adventures.

Relationships

Cali and Tessa

Cali and Tessa blushing at the thought of checking on Flynn.

Cali is annoyed mostly with Flynn and his big ego. However, in some cases, she warms up to him, as shown when she found out that they both have something they agree on about  Kaos  and when Flynn announced that he would be turning over a new leaf by being more humble. Despite him not really sticking to this promise, throughout the games she's shown to still get along fine with him, though she can still be annoyed by his mannerisms, or lack thereof. In Mini But Mighty , Cali has feelings for Flynn, but doesn't admit it.

Earth Portal Master

Oddly, in Skylanders: Ring of Heroes Cali is affectionate and encouraging to the Portal Master, helping them get used to Skylands and the many facilities Master Eon arranged for them.

  • Cali's character model is shared by Jess LeGrand 's, who has her ears laid down opposite to Cali's.
  • She is voiced by Sumalee Montano, who is best known for voicing Arcee in the animated series, Transformers Prime .
  • It is possible that, sometime in the development of Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure , Cali had her own species that would act as enemies. This is shown in the director's cut version of The Beginning trailer, where a grey, axe-wielding Cali tried to hurt Gill Grunt , before being carried away by Cynder .
  • Cali is notable for her damsel-in-distress role in the series.
