Story
History
Long ago, King Pen and Master Eon worked together to battle a fearsome foe and nearly lost. In their goal to protect the Skylands, King Pen worked on a Skylander with unlimited skills and abilities that can help protect the realm when no other Skylander are unable to answer a call to arms.
Season 1
In Missing Links, King Pen was summoned by Master Eon when Team Spyro was having trouble with working as a team overcoming the Fire Viper simulation. The Skylander Sensei brought over his Imaginator, Cy, to help the Skylanders improve their talents while working as a team. While Team Spyro trained with Cy, King Pen and Master Eon worked in relocating the Core of Light and would later see how Cy's involvement with the Team during the Fire Viper simulation.
When Team Spyro and Cy failed the test, both Master Eon and King Pen expressed their concerns about the future of the team and Cy's failure in helping them. The Skylander Sensei then accompanied Eon to a good thinking spot at Skylander Academy where they can ponder deep thoughts. During that time, they bore witness to Team Spyro and Cy working together in defeating the actual Fire Viper that attacked them, and King Pen became proud of Cy in accomplishing his main goal as an Imaginator.
Season 2
Sometime before the events of Season 2, King Pen and Cy returned to the Sensei's home at Arctic Isle.
In Belly of the Beast, Fire Viper returned for revenge by capturing King Pen at Arctic Isle, unnaturally immune to the cold and easily able to trap him with icicles. When the Skylanders came to rescue King Pen, Fire Viper devoured the Sensei to taunt them, driving Cy into a rage and causing the group to also be swallowed by the villain as they were unable to evade his assault.
Relationships
Master Eon
King Pen is old friends with Master Eon, having worked side by side with the wizard in their battle against a great foe in the past.
Cy
Cy is King Pen's own Skylander creation and was eager to see what improvement he would add to a Skylander Team. However he expressed disappointment in Cy when the Imaginator failed to help Team Spyro in their training simulation and then intended to scrap the Imaginator piece by piece to see what was wrong with Cy, disregarding any possible feelings Cy felt about it. When Cy ultimately helped Team Spyro defeat an actual Fire Viper, King Pen was pleased that Cy succeeded in being a warrior he was designed to be, despite being doubtful at first.
