Shatterspin

:Not to be confused with the comic series.
Shatterspin is a forbidden and highly developed version of Spinjitzu that was created by the Forbidden Five. Aside from its creators, this technique is only accessible to Elemental Masters wearing a Wolf Mask activated by the Gong and Mallet of Shattering and who have studied the teachings of the Forbidden Five. When activated, the Wolf Mask turns red and morphs into armor, allowing the user to perform a dark red spin. Shatterspin is focused around the concept of strength. It can be best countered by the Rising Dragon technique.
==History==
===Background===
The Forbidden Five developed Shatterspin as one of their formidable combat techniques to overpower any adversaries who dared to challenge them. Shatterspin became available to other Elemental Masters, but they needed to wear a Wolf Mask and strike the Gong of Shattering with the Mallet of Shattering, unlike the Forbidden Five. Despite the group's efforts, Egalt and Rontu managed to defeat them and their Shatterspin using the Rising Dragon technique. Following the banishment of the Five, Egalt and Rontu erased all records of their existence, including the teachings of Shatterspin. However, centuries later, Ras discovered the Shadow Dojo and instructed Cinder on how to master the Shatterspin technique.
===Shattered Dreams===
After Cinder was defeated by the ninja, Ras introduced the concept of Shatterspin to the ninja. As Cinder puts on a Wolf Mask, Ras strikes the Gong of Shattering with the Mallet of Shattering, causing the mask to transform into armor. Cinder then levitates in the air, encircled by a storm of Shatterspin, and lands with his eyes glowing red. Engaging in combat, he employs Shatterspin against the ninja until they eventually retreat.

* It's the second advanced form of Spinjitzu to be a dark counterpart, the first being Forbidden Spinjitzu.
**Both coming from Spinjitzu, Shatterspin was created by evil Elemental Masters, while Forbidden Spinjitzu was created by the First Spinjitzu Master himself.
**This is further implied when Chris "Doc" Wyatt states that Shatterspin is not based on Forbidden Spinjitzu.https://x.com/otherland71/status/1797362605176279405
**It's also the second form of Spinjitzu to be exclusive to Elemental Masters. The first was the Spinjitzu Burst, which could only be performed by an Elemental Master when surrounded by their corresponding element.
