“Welcome to Town Square, Spyro! Begin exploring by gliding to that area with the bulls. Use the L2 and R2 buttons to get a good look.”
    —Nils

Original Design (1998)[]

Nils is a green dragon who shares the same character model as Nestor. The difference between is that Nils has a different scale pattern on his underbelly.

Reignited (2018)[]

Trivia[]

  • In the June 15th Prototype of the original game, Nils' dialogue is displayed as text, and this dialogue is different to the dialogue used in the final version's cutscene: "Town Square is full of treasure and dragons, but you must glide to explore. Use the L2 and R2 buttons to expand your view."
  • In the original PlayStation game, he has a very similar character model to Nestor, with only minor differences between them.
  • In Reignited, like several other Artisans Dragons, Nils has an art piece on the credits page where he is featured with Spyro.
  • Xander Mobus, who voices Nils in the Reignited Trilogy is best known for his role as the Announcer, Master Hand, and Crazy Hand in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS and Wii U, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
  • If one looks closely at the sculpture of Spyro's bust that Nils is working on, the unfinished half resembles Spyro's model from the original PlayStation trilogy, while the finished side resembles his appearance in the Reignited Trilogy.
