"This way leads to Gnasty's Lair. Now go and ram his gnarly butt!"

—Flame.

Flame is a small, red dragon who first appeared in Spyro: A Hero's Tail. His character model could be unlocked for viewing as well as actual gameplay. Not much is known about him apart from Red trapped him in Gnasty's Cave.
