## Biography

### Background

Hounddog McBrag was born and raised in Texas, Mexico, to two Ninjagoan migrants, who had mistakenly travelled to the Johanian side of the Mexican border. Growing up, he had always supported Ninjago and had a dream moving there. However, due to the relationship between Ninjago and the Johanian Republic at the time, entering Ninjago was illegal. Not liking the laws, he entered law school and became a lawyer. However, he was not too found with the paper work and instead entered the Mexican Police Force. After around 3 months of active police work, he was fired and sentenced 5 months in prison for being unjust and cruel towards non-Ninjagoan criminals compared to Ninjagoan criminals.

After ShitCraft IV had ended, and the border between southern and northern Mexico opened, he moved to the southern side. From there, he applied for full Ninjagoan citizenship and the request to move to Ninjago City. However, the process was difficult and would take a long time due to United Nations regulations. Meanwhile, McBrag attempted to join the new United Mexican Police Force, however, was rejected due to his history. Eventually he joined the *Dark Emperor* organisation, which was a non-official, secret, paramilitary police force in southern Mexico. Their main purposes was to protect Ninjagoans from being harmed and followed only Imperial Ninjagoan laws while rejecting the Mexican. He quickly rose in ranks, being the chief for various units. When the Mexican civil war broke out, the Ninjago-friendly Jitzuans announced *Dark Emperor* as an official national police guard. McBrag shortly became the head of the organization, before leaving for Ninjago once Kareastikuru had been reinstated.

Due to his upbringing in Texas, he has a distinct Texan-Ninjagoan accent.

### Kempeitai

When arriving in Ninjago, he directly applied for the Imperial Police Agency. Mentioning his accomplishments in the Mexican civil war and his time in the *Dark Emperor* organization, he was instead offered to work for the Kempeitai. He accepted and entered the Kempeitai training academy. Finishing the academy, he directly was given the title of Inspector of the Kempeitai for Ninjago City. While doing work as a Kempeitai unit, he also achieved military ranks.
