During a live television interview in the Artisans Realm, Argus, one of the Artisan Realm's resident Dragons, insulted and ridiculed Gnasty Gnorc, the foul tempered King of the Gnorcs, a group of goblin-like creatures, this ended up sending the Gnorc King in a volatile rage, Gnasty, who had been exiled for his various misdeeds and vulgarity, had previously sworn revenge against the peaceful Dragons.
Months after his exile, Gnasty reappeared in the desolate Dragon Scrapyard, where he had somehow managed to learn a small amount of Dragon Magic, which he probably stole. After being insulted 3 times on live television by Argus, Gnasty snapped and he turned all of the Dragons who live peacefully in the 5 Realms, into Crystallized Carbonite, the Gnorc King also turned the Dragons' coveted horde of 14,000 Gems into loyal Gnorc Soldiers, however, one Dragon wasn't imprisoned during Gnasty's savage attack, Spyro, a young purple dragon. It is unknown if Gnasty Gnorc accidentally missed Spyro because of his small stature, or he deliberately left the young Dragon free, in order to torture Spyro.
Now, a completely fired up and vengeful Spyro has decided to take it upon himself, to free the 6 Dragon Realms from Gnasty Gnorc's control, free the imprisoned Dragons and reclaim the stolen Dragon Gems in his first thrilling adventure. Stay tuned for some Gnorc arse kicking and bad guy torching action, in Spyro 1.
