Hypnobrai Staff

The Hypnobrai Staff is one of the Serpentine Staffs. It used to belong to the former Hypnobrai general, Slithraa, until Skales obtained it after having defeated his former General in a Slither Pit fight. It holds a vial of anti-venom that can prevent victims from the effects of the Hypnobrai hypnotism.
When mixed with the anti-venom of the other four Snake Staffs, a white liquid is formed that, when it drips on a piece of paper, creates a map to the four Fangblades.
==History==
===Rise of the Snakes===
As the staff was the symbol of leadership within the Hypnobrai, Slithraa never let it out of his hand even when the snakes attacked Jamanakai Village. However, while there, the General was attacked by Cole who claimed the staff and used the anti-venom to release the villagers of their hypnotism.
===Home===
The Ninja continued to keep the staff safe from Serpentine hands at the Monastery of Spinjitzu. However, this provoked an attack by the Hypnobrai on the monastery to reclaim the staff while the Ninja were preoccupied. Skales returned to the Hypnobrai Tomb with the staff in his possession until he was challenged to a Slither Pit duel by Slithraa. Mezmo held on to the staff during the fight and presented it to Skales when he claimed victory.
===The Snake King===
In his efforts to take control over the four remaining Serpentine tribes, Pythor challenges the respective generals to their staffs and their allegiance in the Ouroboros Slither Pit. During the fight, Pythor used the stolen Sacred Flute to incapacitate his competition. As Skales was looking to become Pythor's second-in-command, he conspired with Pythor before the fight and subsequently wore earplugs to the fight. Thus he relinquished the Hypnobrai Staff willingly.
===Between Season 2 and Season 10===
Years after the events of "The Day Ninjago Stood Still," Cyrus Borg obtained the Serpentine Staffs and placed them in the vault underneath Borg Tower.
===The Fall===
Lloyd and Garmadon pass the staff while evading the Oni.

==Trivia==
*In the TV series, the Hypnobrai Staff was held by every Serpentine rank in the Hypnobrai, except for the Scout rank. Although normally wielded by the current general, it was temporarily held by Skales (as a warrior) and Mezmo prior to the Slither Pit in "Home."
**However, in the sets, it was held by everyone except Mezmo.
