Personality: Curious and outgoing. Often rushes into dangerous situations without thinking, but his fast reflexes make sure he gets out in one piece.

History: During the war with Kaos and the Darkness, the two elves in the Skylander army formed a close bond. A troll bomb blew up in Flameslinger's face, causing quite a morbid wound. Stealth Elf was able to nurse him back to health, but unfortunately, the wound cost him his sense of sight. Nevertheless, he returned the favor by teaching her about elf society and culture, since she was raised outside her own species. At the end of the war, they decided they made a perfect pair. Dark Bolt was born later as a result.
Elves are naturally magical creatures. When they have shaped birthmarks, it means whatever the birthmark depicts will have a special role in their lives. Dark Bolt was no exception. He was always tinkering with electric devices, sometimes getting shocked, and going right back to doing the same thing. Oddly enough, he never got electrocuted too badly. When he got old enough, he joined the elf military, then wired the spear he received to a portable electric generator. The other soldiers saw it, and were jealous. None of them could afford to make such a device, and Dark Bolt only could because his parents were rich war heroes. He left the military to avoid trouble, and now follows in his parents' footsteps.
