Glacier Barrens

*Not to be confused with the Frozen Wasteland.*

*“The next two legs of the race take us into the winding maze known as the Birchwood Forest, and then through the perilous and icy Glacier Barrens.”*

— An Announcer, "Ninjaball Run"

## Information

### Inhabitants

Hypnobrai (formerly)

The **Glacier Barrens** are a frigid and mountainous region of Ninjago. They are home to the Hypnobrai Tomb and is used annually as part of the Ninjaball Run race track. They are also the place where the Pause Time Blade landed.

## History

### Prior to the series

The Glacier Barrens was one of the locations visited by Misako in her quest to learn how to prevent the Final Battle between Lloyd and his father.

### Rise of the Snakes

Lloyd was forced to flee to the Glacier Barrens after his plans the previous day were foiled by the ninja. While he searched to seek revenge, he discovered strange markings under the snowy ground. He uncovered the entrance to the Hypnobrai Tomb, which Lloyd was able to open with the pull of a snake-shaped lever—however, as the doors opened, the boy accidentally slipped inside the icy cavern below.

### Never Trust a Snake

The Fangpyre briefly fought the Hypnobrai before they realized they joined forces with each other in the past.

### Ninjaball Run

Skales drove the Serpentine Bus into the Glacier Barrens as a bundle of police cars followed suit. At first, the Hypnobrai General assumed that the policemen were after him, but when the police cars passed them Skales realized they were only trying to win the race. Upon being distracted by the commotion of his competitors, the Postman crashed into a lone snowman.

Suddenly the ninja realized they had used up all of their fuel for the Ultra Sonic Raider. Ed and Edna noticed this, eagerly offering the fuel from their jalopy. Both competitors were then forced to transfer the gas while driving in order to keep the lead.

Meanwhile, on the *Black Bounty*, Lord Garmadon complained that they were flying too slowly which lead him to push most of his Serpentine comrades off-board to gain speed. Among other Serpentine, Lizaru landed atop the Serpentine Bus, crawling over to the windshield and gasping in disbelief upon seeing Skales driving.

A crowd of Serpentine hopped onto the Ultra Sonic Raider in an attempt to slow them down, but their efforts were in vain when the ninja (with the exception of Kai) climbed out to counter their attacks.

However, during the fray, Rattla crashed into Ed and Edna's jalopy which caused them to veer off and create a domino effect with the other racers. The only vehicle that arrived undamaged was the Ultra Sonic Raider. Jay rushed out to his parent's aid, and when Edna commented sorrowfully that the jalopy would not be able to make it to the finish line, Jay took a spare part from his parent's vehicle and placed it on his own before racing off.

### Codename: Arcturus

After Pythor and the Nindroids went into hiding, Lloyd was ordered to search the Glacier Barrens for them.

### Pause and Effect

Using the BorgWatch, Krux and Acronix discovered the Pause Time Blade was at the Glacier Barrens and traveled to retrieve it. After it landed, Krux successfully claimed the blade before the group left the area.

## Geography

Situated nearby Birchwood Forest and the Sea of Sand, the Glacier Barrens are located in a cold environment where it snows consistently. The land is covered in snow due to the weather, the only thing breaking away from the miles of ice being the large protruding stones and hills rising from the ground. The local inhabitants live inside small igloos, capable of living through the harsh blizzards thanks to the large coats they bundle themselves up in.
