Master Chen

Master Chen was the leader of a secret cult of followers who worshiped the Anacondrai and the former owner of Mr. Chen's Noodle House. 
A master of deception, Chen was responsible for the Serpentine War, causing him to be exiled to a secluded island when the Serpentine he aligned with lost. 
Over the years, Chen built up his criminal empire while also making money in New York City through his noodle house. 
He also had a daughter, Skylor, who inherited the element of Amber from her mother.
Shortly after Adam's presumed death, Chen had him kidnapped and organized the Tournament of Elements as a cover to steal the powers of the Elemental Masters, so he could perform a spell that would turn his followers into Anacondrai. 
This plan eventually succeeded, turning him into "Chen-acondrai," but their mission to destroy New York was thwarted when Chen's former pupil, Garmadon, unleashed the Anacondrai generals from the Cursed Realm.
The generals cursed Chen and his cultists, before banishing them to the Cursed Realm.
Months later, the Preeminent was unleashed into Stiix. 
When Ian & Irma drowned the beast, the Cursed Realm was destroyed and sent to the Departed Realm, killing Master Chen and all of its inhabitants.
A statue of Chen was later placed in the Museum of History. 
He is the main antagonist of the Tournament of Elements Arc.

== Appearance ==
Chen wore an Anacondrai skull atop his head, which itself sported a large purple snake around its own head, with skeletal rims attached to it. 
He had a mustache-goatee, thick eyebrows, and thick sideburns and hair, all of which were black in color, though in his younger years his hair seemed to be red. 
He sported dark red robes with golden and black markings, along with purple rims along the midlines.
== Personality ==
Before his banishment, Chen was an master of deceit and trickery who was able to manipulate both Garmadon to crave power, and the Elemental Master of Earth (in addition to others unmentioned) to fight against the Elemental Alliance. 
This manipulation served him in keeping a balanced rift between the Elemental Alliance and the Serpentine in the Serpentine War. 
At this time, he also proved to be a master strategist, twisting moves on both sides in such a way to keep his involvement in the dark—an aspect that grew stronger in the years to come, with the newer generation of Elemental Masters.
After his banishment, however, Chen became more childish, spoiled, and impatient (all of which he expressed while supervising the Tournament of Elements), but still devious and greedy. 
He also had a quirk, which is his love for buttons and trap doors (which is a combination of his need for power and childish nature). 
During the Second Serpentine War, Chen started to complain about how difficult and time consuming it was to take over Earth.
However, it would appear that Chen did love his daughter, and gave her special treatment (he provided her with a tournament suit similar to those of the ninja, and he allowed her to keep Kai around after he had drained him of his power). 
After she betrayed him, though, he no longer cared for her safety, and his greed took over.
He was also shown to be culturally insensitive, as he used the symbolism of the Anacondrai, even after betraying both humans and serpentine by igniting the war that drove both sides to near extinction. 
He even violated their remains by using them as decorations and clothing, while espousing their ideology of "only one can remain," adding insult to injury. 
He was also shameless in this, as he begged the spirits of the Anacondrai generals to spare him even though he was the one who instigated both wars, which caused them to be banished to the cursed realm and then used elemental power to transform himself into a pseudo-Anacondrai while claiming to be on the same side.
Chen was also shown to be temperamental, sadistic, and possibly psychotic. 
This was shown in his previously mentioned duplicity, hot temper, and tendency to believe his own lies. 
He also showed great enjoyment and schadenfreude when he revealed to Wu and Misako that Garmadon had signed the love letter that Wu had written for Misako that caused her to fall for Garmadon in their youth. 
Chen's perverse glee was quite evident in this action, and only further showcased his psychosis.
Chen was also shown to be quite cowardly and was seemingly incapable of owning up to his own mistakes and misdeeds, claiming that his use of magic to become an Anacondrai meant that he was on their side in a futile attempt to be spared by the unleashed spirits of Arcturus and his comrades.
