Astor City

**Astor City** is a city located on Ninjago Island. It is a futuristic city with many districts found at the side of an ocean, shaped as an A surrounded by a star. It is protected by a secret organisation known as the Ultra Agents. Jay Walker tested his flying glider here when he was recruited by Wu to his ninja team.

## Description

Astor City's architecture looks similar to Ninjago City, but with some differences. These include much more neo-futuristic buildings and some oddly shaped buildings with different forms on them. It is divided in many different districts: Riverside, Astoria, Uptown, Pointer Island, West Village, Downtown, Rookbridge, Southgate, Cane Beach, Coleporth and some buildings within the city, such as The Peak. It is shaped like a giant star with an A.

## History

### Galaxy Squad

In the mid-1990s, the Galaxy Squad was formed in Astor City to protect the Earth Realm against the Alien Buggoids.

### Ultra Agents

At some point, the Ultra Agents were formed to protect Astor City, led by Solomon Blaze, a former member of the Galaxy Squad.

### Jay Walker's Invention

In 2010, Jay Walker traveled to the city to test his new invention, a flying glider. While flying around the city, he crashed into a biliboard and met Wu, who recuited him to his team of ninja.

### The Rise of AntiMatter

In 2012, shortly after the Ultimate Battle, Morgan Lux, a member of the Ultra Agents, discovered a Dark Matter missile that was sent to Astor by the Overlord but never detonated. He brought the weapon back to his lab and, unaware of its true capabilities, decided to use it to create the AntiMatter Staff, hoping to use it to combat the crime in the city. However, the Ultra Agents banned him from working on it as this was too risky, so he began working on the device in secret. This machine was intended to suck all the evil in the city, but instead it backfired, and the corruptive powers of the Dark Matter corrupted his brain, transforming him into the super villain AntiMatter.

He later began to corrupt citizens of Astor City, so they could bring him the items needed to create a giant device that would transform the entire city into super villains. He believed that the people had a good side and one evil, but the combination made them weak, so he wanted to create a city, then a nation full of evil and powerful beings, so they could unleash what he believed was their true potential.
