Revision as of 07:27, 30 January 2012

Thieves are enemies in the Spyro the Dragon series. They first appeared in Spyro the Dragon, where they stole the Dragon Eggs that Spyro needed to get back, but since then they have appeared in almost every Spyro game in the original series. They enjoy taunting Spyro, saying "nah nah nahnah nah!".

All thieves apparently live in a place called the Thieves Den, where they store everything that they've stolen. They are voiced by Carlos Alazraqui in Spyro the Dragon, and the same voice recording is used in future games.
