Master Garmadon

Master Garmadon is an identy that the former Lord Garmadon used after he was purified of the Evil corrupting him.

After Adam sacrificed himself, Garmadon and the ninja journeyed to an island to rescue Adam.

There, they were caught up in a conflict with Master Chen and his cult.

Garmadon was banished to the Cursed Realm in a bid to defeat Chen's army.

Later, during the ghost's invasion, Adam found Garmadon and rescued him from the Preeimanent and now lives a happy life.

## Appearance

Garmadon was reverted to a normal man, free of the evil energy that had corrupted him.

He appeared as an old man similar in appearance to Master Wu, but with a full head of graying hair instead of a white beard.

His old outfit had been transformed into the "special" kimono his brother wore in "Battle Between Brothers," a predominantly black kimono with white sleeves and golden Chinese characters are written on the front of the kimono.

In Rebooted, his face is slightly different, and he has donned an official master gi that was mostly black with a white sleeved, gray overcoat and a green belt, along with a crest of a black dragon in a gold circle.

This same symbol appears on his back.

In Tournament of Elements, his gi remained mostly black, but its design was altered to have gold accents.

His hair appears to be a darker shade of gray than before.

It was also revealed that he had an Anacondrai tattoo on his back from his days as Chen's right hand.

He later turned into an Anacondrai but was reverted to normal after his banishment to the Cursed Realm.

## Personality

After being purged of the Great Devourer's venom after a decade of scheming and manipulating, Garmadon's true, good side finally begins to show through.

However, as a result of his crimes, he was left to feel tremendous guilt.

To cope, he began to live in solitude, training pupils to defend themselves, and was extremely pacifistic, relying exclusively on the Art of the Silent Fist in combat.

Despite this, he was unwilling to let his personal guilt place his loved ones in danger.

Additionally, Garmadon would later refuse to take hostages, regardless of who they were, in order to accomplish any goals.

As a master, Garmadon was also noticeably different in that while his brother was generally more cryptic and vague, Garmadon was far more down-to-earth and practical, making his advice and instruction to the ninja more direct and not hesitating to emphasize their wariness of his former master Chen.

Ultimately, without the venom of the Great Devourer, Garmadon proved to be incredibly selfless as well; upon the need, he willingly had himself banished to the Cursed Realm in order to save Earth from the Anacondrai warriors and likewise emphasized the defeat of the Preeminent over his own safety.

Because of his virtuous and altruistic side, for a time, Garmadon changed his legacy from that of a vile Dark Lord to a benevolent hero, his good side being remembered forever by his friends and family.

## Powers, Skills & Abilities

* **Spinjitzu:** Like his brother, Master Wu, Garmadon has the ability to perform Spinjitzu, with his version channeling the power of Destruction instead of Creation.
	+ **Forbidden Spinjitzu:** Using Forbidden Spinjitzu, his strength increases and he uses energy waves much more.
	+ **Catjitzu:** Using a special form of Spinjitzu, invented by Nineko, Garmadon can walk on ropes, jump high with the help of Spinjitzu tornado and jump down in the same way.
* **Destruction:** Garmadon has the ability to control the elemental essence of Destruction. He is able to create Destruction daggers to help him in combat, and he is able to gain more power by battling opponents. After being bitten by the Great Devourer, his power became unbalanced. After being purified of evil after the Overlord's defeat, Garmadon's Destruction returned to balance.
	+ **Shapeshifting**
		- **Oni Form:** Due to being part-Oni, Garmadon can enhance his strength and other capabilities whilst using Destruction and channeling his anger, making himself turn into an Oni as a result, similar to an Elemental Master user in their Dragon Form. However, if weakened, he would revert back to normal.
		- **Limb Changing:** In Christofern, Garmadon was shown to be able to get rid of his two extra arms and grow them back at will (though its possible that his two extra arms were associated with his Oni Form).
* **Creation:** Despite Destruction being his primary element, Garmadon is part Dragon and could access the power of Creation after unlocking his true potential, even though he is mostly Oni in form.
* **Shadows:** In his first appearance, Lord Garmadon was able to summon and duplicate shadows, dark entities able to harm physical beings while the latter could not do the same. Similarly, during his stay in the Underworld, he had the ability to use his powers to create a shadow duplicate of himself in order to interact with Ninjago to some extent.
* **Weapon Summoning** - Garmadon can summon weapons from a distance or from thin air. This was shown in "Once Bitten, Twice Shy," where he summoned 4 weapons (a staff, a double bladed dagger, a staff with shurikins, and a scythe) from a distance. He later summoned 4 swords by pulling them out from his back in "The Royal Blacksmiths." In his current form, he can create Destructive daggers, which he used to fight Lloyd and Wu at the top of Borg Tower.
* **Wielding the Golden Weapons:** During his time in his dark dimension, he gained the power of doing what was seemingly impossible for him to achieve: to wield all four Golden Weapons of Spinjitzu at once. In addition to this newfound ability, he gained two extra arms to help him hold each weapon more easily—though this new power still left him feeling weak upon using the Mega Weapon. Upon being purified after the Overlord's defeat, Garmadon lost his extra pair of arms, and therefore, the power to wield all four Golden Weapons.
* **Skilled Combat:** Garmadon is a skilled fighter, being proficient in martial arts and the use of many different weapons. Initially, after being cured, he repressed his power by refusing to fight, but he eventually returned to being an active combatant in order to save his son. He is also skilled in swordsmanship as he often wields two identical katanas and later four after he gained 4 arms. Even powerless, while they were caught off-guard, he still outmatched all of the ninja and later several Oni with only one sword. During his battle with the Time Twins, Garmadon, unlike Wu gained the upper hand while fighting each of the twins.
* **Fishing:** Garmadon is very good at fishing and has often been with his father, brother, or both to fish when he was a child. He can also swim, as he and Garmadon often go to swim to the lake.

## Weapons

* **Bo staff:** During the Serpentine War, Garmadon used a staff and fought Arcturus forcing him to flee.
* **Katanas**: Garmadon also wielded katanas during his youth. Before he gained 4 arms he often duel-wield two katanas in battle. Following his evil side, he often wielded four swords.
* **Destruction daggers**: He is able to summon up to four daggers out of Destruction for combat.
