History

History[]

Background[]

Born in the Never-Realm, Fritz lived in the village of the Formlings and found his animal form. At some point, a monster attacked it, causing him to get lost and eventually forgotten by his people. He stumbled upon the Land of Lost Things, where he met and joined a group of fellow runaways known as the Finders, and they became his new family.

The Vault of Focus (flashback)[]

At some point after Cole arrived in the Land of Lost Things, Fritz went to check a geyser that gone off with the other Finders. While rummaging through the junk, he found Boobytraps and How to Survive Them, pointing out the fact how many people are losing the copies of this. Then Spitz showed him a Yeti mask he found, scaring Fritz and make him turn into a blackbird fly to Cole and Geo. As Spitz apologized to Fritz, Geo explained Cole that Fritz's village was attacked by a monster. Thankfully, Cole comforted Fritz, saying that he is safe and all of them will be safe with him.

Dragons Rising, Season 1[]

They Call It Doom[]

As Nya and Sora landed in the Land of Lost Things, they noticed Fritz and Spitz watching them and decided to follow them. Fritz and Spitz ran to Cole to protect them.

Land of Lost Things[]

After realizing Nya was a friend of Cole's, Fritz and Spitz introduced themselves. They hid in a giant noodle container from the Hoarder and returned to the Rookery.

When Dr. LaRow attacked, the Yellow Dragon Core was stolen, causing the Hoarder to appear. However, Sora realized that the creature was actually a Sweeper, a magnetic organism designed to clean Imperium sewers. Once Sora exposed Sweeper, Fritz threw a jar at Spitz, who caught it and easily captured the creature.

Dragons Rising, Season 2[]

Force From the East[]

Fritz and the other Finders were rummaging through a fresh arrival of lost things when the Cloud Kingdom appeared on the horizon. Geo identified the floating structure as the Cloud Kingdom from Cole's stories and that its populace were friendly. Unfortunately, they were unaware that the Wolf Clan had since conquered Cloud Kingdom and were now descending to attack. Geo ordered for Spitz and Fritz to run, but when both refused, he provided them each with makeshift weapons to fend off the Wolf Mask Warriors with.

As the Wolf Mask Warriors captured Bonzle and began dragging her away, Spitz defiantly shouted to the warriors that they would never get him or Fritz. To their surprise, the warriors ceased attacking and left, leading for them both to realize they didn't want either of them but only Bonzle. Fortunately, Cole returned just in time to provide backup and rescue Bonzle, but they still had nowhere else to go. In the brief moment of respite after reuniting with Cole, Fritz admitted that he and Spitz liked Geo's breakfasts to the extent that their other alternative was eating nothing at all.

With the Wolf Clan closing in on them, Cole recognized the remains of the Monastery of Imperium's portal gate and urged for everyone to help assemble it. Once it was completed and activated, Fritz and the others ran through the portal and emerged in the Monastery of Spinjitzu.

The Spell at the Waterfall[]

Fritz, Cole, and the Finders emerged into the Monastery of Spinjitzu with two Wolf Mask Warriors in pursuit. Fritz and the Finders then dove for cover while Cole and Zane fought back their pursuers. The group then settled into the monastery's relaxation room, where Spitz and Fritz were served some food and then played video games.

To Mysterium[]

Fritz and Spitz grew bored of the game they were playing and ventured into the Monastery's Hangar bay where they decided to try their hand at piloting Sora's SA Mark 01. Unfortunately they almost immediately lost control and had to be bailed out by Cole.

Fugitives From Madness[]

Fritz and the others at the Monastery of Spinjitzu witnessed the rise of the Blood Moon.

After the Ritual of the Blood Moon[]

The Shatter Dragon[]

During the Winds of Chaos, Fritz tried to fly by turning to his blackbird but caught up in the storm. Thankfully, Cole saved him and took him to the Rookery, where he and the other Finders stayed until the storm calmed down.

Casket of Bones[]

While Kai and Cole were training Frak in the Land of Lost Things, Fritz and Spitz showed the Prismatic Blades to Kai, playing with them as Kai questioned how they ended up here.

Under the Light of a Mechanical Moon[]

Realizing that they are attacked by invisible beings, Fritz exited the Rookery with Bonzle and Spitz, trying to defend himself with a Prismatic Blade. Seeing this, Cole tried to help them, only for them to get hollowed, devastating Cole. After finding out that Nokt was the one who stole their souls, Cole wanted Geo to take the hollowed Finders to the Monastery of Spinjitzu. In the dragon stables of the monastery, Fritz walked mindlessly with Bonzle and Fritz as Frohicky and Geo watched them.

For Whom the Bell Tolls[]

After arriving at the Monastery of Spinjitzu, Wyldfyre and Sora saw the hollowed Finders, making them think the monastery was attacked, only for Frohicky to correct them. Then Geo stopped Fritz from mindlessly walking.

Later, Frohicky and Geo tried to revive the Finders with the broth Frohicky made, only for it to do nothing. After Ras arrived in the monastery, Geo and Frohicky took the Finders to the elevator and escaped with them.

Chaos Reigns[]

Fritz was unhollowed with the rest of the Finders after Thunderfang's defeat. He, the other Finders, and Cole hugged each other.
