Nightfall was a Dreadwalker from Fogshadow Tower, a mysterious fortress in the middle of the Poison Sea. While most Dreadwalkers stayed within the noxious cloud they called home, Nightfall preferred to dive into the black abyss and hunt the dark monsters that threatened her people. One day, as she was exploring a deep cavern in her submarine, the Sea Shadow, Nightfall came upon an enormous object that pulsed with a strange energy. It was gigantic, and before she could comprehend what she was looking at, it hatched! Out came a creature 100 times
larger than anything she had ever seen! She fired the engines and raced back to warn her people. Just as the last citizens boarded an evacuation ship, the colossal head of the Leviathan broke the surface of the water and let out a terrible roar! Without hesitation, Nightfall rushed towards the monster, blasting it with everything she had while the others made their escape. This act of heroism caught the attention of Master Eon, and the rest is Skylander history!

Nightfall’s SuperCharged Challenge takes place in Mystical Vault. Shoot the light crystals with Dark Orbs (Darkness Vortices darken the crystals as well but they don’t track like Dark Orbs) from the Abyss Cannon to turn them dark. Darkening a crystal fills the Dark Gauge on the right side of the screen. If you keep moving and shooting, you should complete this challenge on the first lap.
Overview
If you enjoy tormenting your enemies, Nightfall is the SuperCharger for you. Ambrush begins as a way to move around safely, but can be upgraded to become a potent attack. Whip Lash allows you to pop enemies into the air, or knock them to the ground, and then juggle them for additional damage. Nightfall’s Soul Gem Ability, Bad Hair Day, allows you to do this to every nearby enemy at the same time! Choose the Master Angler path if you lean on Handy Hooks to defeat enemies. Dread Head path upgrades make it nearly impossible for melee enemies to reach Nightfall.
