**Kai Smith** was a fire elemental human male who served as a loyal member of the Secret Ninja Force, dedicated to the protection of Ninjago. For a time, he struggled with his emotions and the acceptance of the fundamentals of working in a team. Working more independently he would often rush headlong into danger, but is very passionate about life and devotion to family.

Kai Smith was the son of Ray and Maya Smith, inheriting the element of fire from his father in 16 BDI. He later had a younger sister named Nya, who inherited Maya's power of water in 14 BDI.

## History

### Early Life

Kai was born to Ray and Maya in 16 BDI, and was later Nya's older brother in 14 BDI. He inherited Ray's Elemental Power of Fire. Kai was raised in Ignacia, alongside his sister. Growing up, they learned about their parents' elemental powers, and were told not to use them, but only in emergencies. This often made them the targets of abuse.

## Personality

Fittingly for his elemental affinity, Kai is very hotheaded, prone to taking action before thinking things through. He is capable of making careful observations when the need arises, but his emotions often overshadow his caution. His single-mindedness makes interactions with his friends and family difficult at first, but they eventually get used to his actions. He can be a bit cocky at times, sometimes even to the point of an egotistical nature, insisting that he is better than others, gloating about his victory, or getting angry about his failures.

Kai also has something of an overconfident stubborn side, believing that he is right until evidence that supports the contrary is present. His stubborn streak gives him an incredible determination that allows him to bolster up team spirit.

Despite his hotheadedness and overconfident personality, he has a good heart and shows his dedication to the people he cares about - if someone can earn his friendship, he will do anything to protect them. Much of his stubbornness and recklessness are due to his desire to help his loved ones, either directly or by becoming strong enough to defeat anyone who might threaten them. In turn, his friends and family work to balance out Kai's more extreme traits, causing him to become a levelheaded friend with great respect.

## Appearance

Typically preferring red attire, Kai has tall, thick spiky reddish-brown hair, shaped lick fire. He is often seen with a focused expression on his face, with a scar visible on his right eyebrow and bandage above his left.

Kai's civilian attire consists of a red half-zipped up jacket with a black upper stripe and black pants.

## Powers and Abilities

Kai has inherited the Elemental Power of Fire from his father. He has the ability to perform Pyrokinesis. He can create fire from his hands and manipulate it from existing sources. He often uses Pyrokinesis as a projectile and uses it more as an offensive weapon.
