Dragon Masters

The Dragon Masters are two martial art teachers, specialized in training students to become ninja warriors.
==History==
===Background===
The Dragon Masters took on the role of martial art instructors, teaching both dragons and sometimes humans the art of Spinjitzu, as well as the Rising Dragon Technique."To Mysterium"
One day, the Forbidden Five embarked on a mission to conquer other realms, leaving destruction in their wake and eliminating anyone who dared to oppose them. Fully aware of the threat posed by the Forbidden Five, the Dragon Masters devised a plan to put an end to their reign of terror. They knew that the key to stopping them was Rising Dragon, which could overpower Shatterspin. However, the Dragon Masters also understood that it was crucial to remove the presence of the Forbidden Five from the realms entirely. To achieve this, they sought the assistance of Gandalaria, the high sorceress of Mysterium. Gandalaria dedicated day and night to crafting a spell that would transport the Forbidden Five to the Nether-Space."The Spell at the Waterfall"
Once the spell was completed, the Dragon Masters unleashed Rising Dragon, successfully subduing the Forbidden Five and banishing them to the Nether-Space. With the Forbidden Five no longer a threat, the Dragon Masters took further action to ensure that their dark legacy would be forgotten. They had the Forbidden Five be erased from memory, sealing their history within the confines of the Shadow Dojo."Force From the East"
===Dragons Rising, Season 2===
Following their first encounter with the Wolf Clan, in which they were met with Shatterspin for the first time, Lloyd began seeing visions that instructs him to seek out Egalt, though the visions didn't reveal to him that there are two Dragon Masters. With a mission bestowed on him by the Source Dragons, he, the ninja and Riyu (alongside Wyldfyre, who stowed away) began seeking out the 'teacher' that would help them in countering Shatterspin. During their jounrey, they went through a trio of trials/tests that were played out by the Dragon Masters. 
After the ninja successfully went through the first and second trial, they were met by Egalt, who served as an obstacle for the final test, which was the Test of Unity. Working together as a team, they successfully prevailed over Egalt and passed the test before they were met by Rontu. As the ninja readied themselves for an incoming attack, the Dragon Masters bowed to them, leaving the ninja confused. Rontu proceeded to congratulate the ninja for passing their tests, and explained each of them to the group. When Lloyd asks the two dragons about the ancient teacher they seek, Egalt refused to give a clear answer but Rontu reveals that she and the latter are the teachers they seek before introducing herself and Egalt and that they are the Dragon Masters.
When questioned on why he and the ninja came to seek them, Lloyd tells the Dragon Masters of the vision he had received and requested that they teach the ninja to counter Shatterspin. While Egalt was skeptical of it, as he knew that no one practiced the technique for centuries, Rontu asks Lloyd if he has seen anyone perform Shatterspin, which the ninja confirms, though Egalt still refused to believed it, as he has a strong distrust of humans, due to having bad experiences while teaching human students. Upset by the old dragon's skepticism, Lloyd informs him of Ras training an elemental master in mastering Shatterspin, the Wolf Masks, and the Gong of Shattering. The Dragon Masters were left shocked upon learning of Ras' plot to free the Forbidden Five.
They assumed that Ras could not have opened the Shadow Dojo without the energy of a Source Dragon, causing Sora to theorize that the Source Dragon energy Ras has must have come from the Source Dragon that was imprisoned in Imperium. Though Rontu tells Lloyd that she and Egalt can no longer fight the Forbidden Five, due to their old age, she, however, claims that the Dragon Masters can help train them in mastering Rising Dragon. This offer leads to an argument between Rontu and Egalt. A reluctant Egalt eventually agrees to help train the ninja.
After the ninja performed a combat demonstration before the Dragon Masters, each of them are then split into two separate groups; As Sora, Riyu, and Wyldfyre are promoted as First Fang Ninja, they went to train under Rontu to master Spinjitzu while Lloyd, Kai, Nya, and Arin went to train under Egalt, as since they have learned Spinjitzu, they are promoted to Second Fang. As Rontu trained Sora and Riyu in a separate part of the training plateau of the Dragon Masters, Wyldfyre was the only one of the group who didn't start training, due to having a broken leg, and she was told to let her leg heal, much to her chagrin. Meanwhile, Arin accidentally blinds one of Egalt's eyes, causing the latter to harshly demote him to First Fang, since Arin had lost control of his Spinjitzu. 
As the Blood Moon nears, Kai, with help from Nya, was able to perform the Rising Dragon technique, which impressed the Dragon Masters. Because of Kai's success, he is made a Third Fang Ninja by Egalt. When the Blood Moon suddenly rose into the sky, Lloyd desperately pleads the Dragon Masters to help the rest of the ninja in mastering Rising Dragon. Unfortunately, however, Rontu tells him that they can't and confessed that since the Blood Moon had fully risen, it is also a bane to her and Egalt. After Egalt expressed his hope that the Source Dragons will be on the ninjas' side, he and Rontu were turned to stone. Later, after the ninja defeated Ras and the Wolf Clan, though they were successful in freeing one of the Forbidden Five, the Blood Moon passes, allowing the Dragon Masters to revert back to normal.
