A new servant of the Dragonlord, he possessed the Golem that protected Cantlin from his master's army, explaining the reason why it fought the Hero when he tried to enter the town. Originally want to slaughter all residents of the city it did with Damdara, it stop and kidnap the old priest, wanting to seeking the relics of the legendary Erdrick.
He eventually met his end in Kol, where he trying to devour the whole family of the cowardly royal guard, shortly before slain by the hero, cursing him and refuse to accept the fact he got defeated by the weakling he look down upon, the Ultimate key drop after he fade into nothingness.
It is implied in Spiketail's bestiary notes and JP dialogue that, the fiend was working under Hargon who support Dragonlord conquest along with Mirage, which allows him to work under the Dragon King despite the latter annoyance toward it.

*Tip for Battle: It is recommended to equip both Asbestos earrings and Anti-freeze earrings to lower Spiketail's breath damage when he used Inferno and Freezing Blizzard, and since he will summon two Dragonfly twice per turn, it's best to use Focus Pocus in order to Skysplitter via Gust Slash Souped Up version, which deal damage to all three.
