Freedom

Warnings: I don't think many are necessary, but we got some angst.

Previous Stories: Gone Soft, Separated, Mini-Stories 

Daemon stared at the floor of his cell, normally glowing eyes surprisingly dull. The chill of his vengestone restraints bit into his wrists, shivers coursing through him occasionally from the cold of the stone room. 

It had been two months. Two months since the normal life he and Safa had been living was torn to shreds. Two months since he had agreed to willingly go to Kryptarium, if the ninja just let him say good bye to his young companion. He could still hear her desperate, begging voice as she called out to him. It rang throughout his mind, reminding him how he abandoned her. But it was for the best, right? The ninja thought he would hurt her, and given his history, who was to say he wouldn’t have, albeit accidentally, in the future? He was already lying to her; it was only a matter of time. He was secretly glad for the solitary confinement the ninja had thrown him into. At least no one else was around to witness his tears, to hear his pained, muttered apologies. “Don’t leave me like my other family did” Daemon clenched his eyes shut, tears rolling out. “I don’t want you to go!” He shook his head, trying to block out her voice. This was for the best.  “I didn’t want to leave ya, kid” “Daemon” “I’m sorry, Safa” “No! Daemon!” “I-I’m sorry” His voice quivered, raspy from his tightening throat. “DAEMON-“ The final echoed cry was cut off by a clattering outside of his cell. Daemon glanced up, raising his cuffed hands to wipe his eyes.  It was late...but, maybe the cops had decided on another round of questioning. Everyone seemed to think he knew where his fellow Bizarros were, that he knew something about some random vigilante that had popped up recently. No matter how many times he told them he didn’t know anything, they continued to interrogate him. Clearing his throat, he called out. “I already told ya, I don’t know anythin’.” No response. Raising a brow, Daemon slowly stood, walking over to the door, and glancing out. “Wha-“ He stepped back in confusion at the sight of two unconscious security guards, laying face down on the floor. Wide eyes narrowed when he found the cause. “Hello, Cole” The icy voice of his fellow bizarre greeted. “Zane” He stated flatly, taking in his ex-teammates new appearance. His snow white hair now had black roots, and ice blue tips. His gi had been replaced with simple clothing, and a leather jacket with frosted sleeves. “Whatd’ya want?” The robotic bizarre sighed, stepping forward to unlock Daemon’s cell. “I…no longer go by that name. But for my purpose of being here, I am breaking you out-“ “- Why? Thought I wasa waste of time. ‘sides, who said I want out?” “The whimpered apologies I heard just now suggest there is someone you wish to see again” Zane responded coolly, placing a key card from the unconscious guards into a slot by the cell. Daemon glanced away, some of the echoes of Safa’s voice returning. “As for...why I originally chose to break you out...”  Sudden regret filled the nindroid’s voice, an expression of guilt appearing. “I...suppose it is a form of apology. We, both have had a change of heart, it seems. I should not have agreed to remove you from the team; we should not have said the things we did. There…is nothing wrong with being a good person...” A small smile appeared on Zane’s face, as he looked up at his old companion. “As cheesy as that sounds.” Daemon took a moment to process this. It..wasn’t impossible to believe that Zane had changed. After all, Daemon had done the exact same thing. Besides, even though he still held a small grudge, he’d chosen to stop letting their words affect him, soon after he’d taken in Safa…. Safa …No, no he couldn’t leave. He was here because it protected Safa. Before Zane could reach for the vengestone cuffs, Daemon stepped backwards, shaking his head. “Can’t…can’t let ya break me out…I’m stayin here” Zane blinked in confusion, “Cole, I am certain you do not wish to stay here. You are not meant to be cramped in this small room, and elemental masters are not meant to have vengestone on for this long.” The larger bizarro glanced down at his cuffs. He couldn’t deny the cold feeling in his chest that came from them, the nausea that prevented him from eating. He couldn’t deny that the cell he was forced into had left him restless, and sore. Nonetheless, he still took another step backwards, going into what remained of his cell. “Doesn’t matter how ‘t affects me..this..this is for the best, trust me” His ex-teammate frowned, stepping forward. “Cole-“ “Daemon…my name is, Daemon” “I..see…Daemon, why, in your words, is this for the best?” Daemon went quiet, lowering his head as he averted his eyes away from the nindroid in front of him. Zane continued, stepping forward once more. “Are..you protecting someone?” Daemon stayed silent still, but nodded his head. He hated the tears that built up, as Zane continued to come closer and question him. “Is it the person you were apologizing to just moments prior?” Daemon swallowed, nodding once more. His voice had turned somewhat raspy, “Safa…h-her name is Safa…the ninja have her..” “And they’ve convinced you that you are a threat to her safety..” Zane sighed, finally close enough to place his hands on Daemon’s shoulders. His hands were cool, firm. “Co- Daemon…you allowed yourself to be locked away, you are suffering under the vengestone, for Safa. You are apologizing, you are making sacrifices. Whatever the ninja told you…I do not believe it was true..” “ I thought I had changed” Daemon muttered, “But the minute the ninja showed up…I fell into my old rage.  What if, our change is temporary,” He looked up at the icy bizarro, “what if ‘t’s just a matter of time before we’re back t’ being evil? Back to being what we were created to be?” “I…” Zane took a moment, “I will not lie to you..I have had the same fears. However, I have also searched for an answer, as to why we have changed for the better.  And, I believe it is simply because, the source of our corruption no longer exists. Garmadon is dead, and before that, reformed. The golden weapons, destroyed.” Daemon fell silent again, looking away. He..wasn’t sure if he believed Zane. The theory sounded plausible, and Zane was just as intelligent as his ninja counterpart. Didn’t make the guy trustworthy. Before either could say anything more, however, the alarms began to blare. Zane had overstayed his welcome. “I wish I had more time to convince you, that we are good” Zane moved his hands from Daemon’s shoulders, to the cuffs around the bizarro’s wrists, “But have you at least made a decision?” He was met with more silence, for a moment. Daemon stared at his cuffs. He was his own person, wasn’t he? He could make the decision to change, who cared what the ninja said? At least this way he could check in on Safa, something the guards had refused him. Looking Zane in the eyes, Daemon nodded. The bizarre almost looked relieved at his friend’s decision. Moments later, they were running for the forest, not looking back at the cops chasing after them. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- He and Zane, or Blizzard, as he had told soon after his escape, watched Safa sit in the courtyard of the building she was living in. She looked miserable. Not at all like the happy, optimistic, and sweet girl Daemon knew. Her usually colorful dress was swapped for some grey uniform, matching her mood. It hurt him to see her so sad, to watch her sit and sulk instead of playing with the other kids, or laughing and singing. She wasn’t coloring or playing with dolls, or planning a tea party. She looked alone…she looked abandoned. Blizzard seemed to sense how Daemon felt about this, gently placing a hand on his shoulder. Daemon had decided to forgive the icy Bizarro. And, admittedly, it was nice to have a more genuine friendship with the guy. He turned to his friend. “We’re getting her out right?” Blizzard nodded with a smile, “Of course. If I can manage one break out, I can certainly manage two.” Daemon exhaled, “Thank you…” ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Safa was crying before she even hugged Daemon. “You came back for me!” The bizarro gave a quiet chuckle, returning the small girl’s hug. Her face had lit up when she saw him, she was happy. That was his job, his purpose. To make sure his little sister was happy. “O-of course I came back, kid. Couldn’t stay away from my little sister forever, could I?” He wouldn’t have a problem admitting that he was crying a bit to. “B-but..you said..” Dameon’s smile fell slightly, as he gently moved Safa away from him. He felt the urge to hang his head in…was this shame? Regret? A mix of both? Both seemed correct, after he’d let himself get taken away without a fight. “I-I know what I said kid…but I was being stupid. I’m not abandoning you again, alright?” Safa was quiet, and for a moment, Daemon was worried he had upset her again. But then she held up her pinky finger. “Ima hold you to it,” She grinned, “Ya have ta pinky swear ‘t” He couldn’t help but laugh as she mimicked his accent. Gently, he looped his pinky with hers. “Pinky swear, kid, ‘t’s not gonna happen, ever.”

[ask-the-bizarros]

It was near impossible to focus on anything but the situation at hand, or more accurately, the anxieties it brought about.

Daemon stared at the cobblestone floor below him, tugging slightly at the cold vengestone cuffs that were locked tightly on his wrists. He and the others had been thrown into a holding cell soon after arriving at the police station with the ninja.

To their credit, the ninja had tried to tell the commissioner and his officers that the bizarros had come peacefully and weren’t to be arrested. And were currently trying to negotiate the ‘compromises’ he’d heard so much about.

……..

The cold of the cuffs bit into his skin, spreading through his arms and to his chest. He dug his nails into the palm of his hands as memories flashed past his eyes.

Placed into a cell much too small, forced to wear vengestone for long periods of time. All the questions they asked, questions he didn’t have answers to.

The pacing, the sleepless nights.

Believing it was better that he was cooped up instead of walking free. Believing the people he cared for were better off…

……

He shook his head, trying to clear his stirring mind.

..He really hated prisons…

……….

Something metal nudged him in the arm. He glanced up, meeting a pair of worried mechanical eyes.

He couldn’t give Cryptor even the slightest smile.

The nindroid’s frown deepened, and he leaned on Daemon’s shoulder in an attempt to comfort him. “Dae…one way or another, it’ll be fine. You know that right?”

“You aren’t alone.”

……..

“I know”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Meanwhile, the ninja stood in the commissioner’s office, trying to explain the situation.

“Sir, you need to understand-“

The police commissioner raised a hand to his mustache, cutting them off “I heard it all from Cole, when we arrested the first two- which ones were they, the Jay and Zane look alikes??”

“Speaking of-“His eyes fell on Cole, who glanced at the wall instead, “You shouldn’t even be standing here, free, Mr. Brookstone.”

……

“We’ll get to that later. We’re not asking you to let them go free, just to give them a chance.” Kai stepped forward, placing a hand on Cole’s shoulder.

“We all know you have the resources and technology to keep track of them.” Lloyd added, “It shouldn’t be hard to give them a few months to prove themselves, at least.”

…….

……..

A beat of silence, and the commissioner sat down with a sigh.

“Why are you giving them a chance, ninja? Last I checked, most of you were pretty firm in your standing that the Bizarros weren’t to be trusted.”

……..

………

“It’s…a bit of a story…sir.”

“Just a chance, that’s all we ask. All they’ve been asking for.”

Redeemed Bizarro Ninja stuff

-After moving to the mountains, Ayden (B!Kai) gave up on shaving. He has a very bushy beard, and keeps it in braids.

-The ends of Ayden's beard are singed.

- Being a nindroid, Blizzard (B!Zane) can change his eye color if he chooses.

-He only does this for undercover vigilante missions, and to entertain Safa. Otherwise, his eyes are red like his fellow Bizarros.

- Azul (B!Jay) loves learning new things. He's always interested in hearing people ramble about their interests, and had learned several new skills over the years.

-The first thing he learned was how to juggle, then skateboarding, and then baking.

- Daemon (B!Cole) pulls an uncle Iroh whenever someone tries to mug him on the streets. He teaches them how to properly fight and will listen if they need a listening ear.

-He refuses to tell anyone he does this. 

-Blizzard will not damage his opponents (or he at least does his best to avoid harming them). No broken bones, no stab wounds or cuts, and especially, no killing.

- He just knocks them unconscious, dazes them, or pins them down, and leaves them somewhere for the cops.

-Ayden is absolutely rumored to be a red eyed mountain cryptid, who guides lost travelers to safety.

[afandomroom]

please keep considering the redeemed bizarre ninja

Wrote a (very) short Bizarro Zane drabble! More Safa and Daemon will be appearing sometime on this blog(hopefully)

Zane wasn’t sure why he had chosen to act as he had. It simply didn’t make sense. He had been designed to destroy; his purpose was to be an ambassador of evil. So when the subway caved in, why did he use his ice to stabilize the artificial cavern?   He supposed he could have called it a form of self- preservation; the falling debris could have severely damaged his exterior, and perhaps even his inner wiring. He wouldn’t have died, unlike the civilians, whose biological bodies would have been crushed. But the damage would have been inconvenient. No, that wasn’t right. His actions had been anything but self preservation, they had been....heroic… He shook his head. He wouldn’t believe it ;that went against everything he had been created to be. Perhaps it had been a glitch in his programming; he had needed an update recently. Or perhaps one of the ninja had slipped a virus into his programming, it wasn’t their style, but he would admit it was an efficient way of removing a problem. An issue with his programming would explain his odd desire to help the people who had been harmed by what few pieces of debris had fallen. A glitch explained why he was scanning for who had the most devastating damage. A virus explained why he was walking towards one of the victims, slowly raising his hand, controlling the ice so it raised the cement from them. It explained why he knelt next to them, taking their broken limbs with a surprising gentleness, and resetting them with a precision he didn’t even use with his teammates. It explained the pain in his chest when people flinched away from him, finding his unnaturally calm expression and harsh, red gaze unnerving. It had to explain the strange warmth he felt when a few of the civilians thanked him for saving them or saving their family and friends. It was the only explanation for the gentle smile that formed when a small child came over to show him her doll, and to make it thank him. When the ambulances arrived, Zane disappeared into the shadows, watching from a far. He ran a diagnostic, searching for whatever had been lodged into his programming. He dug through file after file, ran through each and every code. There was nothing. No virus, no glitch, not even a number out of place. He opened his chest panel, looking at his darkly glowing core and wirings. Everything looked fine. It wasn’t possible, it didn’t seem possible. But…he might just be, becoming a good person. And maybe, he could be ok with that.

[ask-the-bizarros]

Sooo... what exactly did ronin do? (sorry I have no context)

.......

Cryptor sat quiet for a long while, leaning back on his chair, staring pointedly at the wall before him. 

After a moment, his hand drifted to one of the replacement metal platings on his arm, a long, shaky sigh escaping his lips.

"He-"

The nindroid swallowed, running a hand through his hair. "He tried to reprogram me, and when that didn't work, I was nothing more than scrap metal" 

"And....a-and"

......

.....

He shook his head, standing up. "I'm going to take a quick walk"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sorry this took so long - Aries

[ask-the-bizarros]

That kid seemed like she trusted them.

"Past experiences suggest that trusting a child's judgement when it comes to villains, isn't the wisest decision" Zane turned another page in the case file, not looking up.

Everyone, aside from Cole, collectively looked over at Lloyd, who pouted.

"I didn't know Pythor was trying to destroy the world, ok?"

Cole decided to speak up once again,"They care a lot about her, y'know" 

Zane sighed, "Of course, but caring about one person doesn't mean they aren't still evil or destructive. And we don't have proof that they won't use her as leverage"

Kai nodded, ruffling his hair dry with a towel,"Yeah man, you saw how "Daemon" reacted when we were at that village" 

"We attacked him first!"

[ask-the-bizarros]

"How did they slip by us, again?!"

Kai tossed a fire ball at the dummy before him, letting some of his frustrations out. Nya was quick to put out the flames, glaring at the brunet.

It was just hours after the bizarros had made their escape. The team had gathered in the central training area of the bounty to discuss the nights happenings and plan their next course of action.

"It seems they had a security system in place," Zane looked up from the report file he'd been reading.

"That definitely explains a few things" Lloyd added, preoccupied with spinning a ninja star on his finger tip.

"Great, so they can see us coming before we get 'em. Just perfect" The firery ninja's voice dripped with sarcasm as he launched another fire ball.

Nya hit him, rather than the dummy, with water this time, "Would you stop that? You're gonna set the whole place ablaze"

-----------------

For a short amount of time, the ninja are available for questions! - Aries

[ask-the-bizarros]

That's some pretty strong evidence to me! Why don't you agree with Cole?

"......" Kai shrugged, "They were made to destroy us, made for evil by Lord Garmadon."

"And even after he became Sensei Garmadon," Jay added, "they still caused chaos everywhere! We're talking burning buildings, robbing banks, crushing cars-" 

"Not to mention, they've been spotted recently near places of mass destruction, and broke into jail" Lloyd mentioned, glancing apologetically at Cole. 

Cole huffed, "But-"

"The truth is" Zane sighed, closing the file before him, " Even if they have turned a new leaf, they have committed to many crimes to simply be let go. We're trying to work with the law, and the bizarros need to be brought in"

"If, as  Cole seems to believe, they truly are "good" now, then we can discuss this fact with them once they've been arrested"

------------------------------

Quick thing on where the ninja stand- Kai, Jay, and Lloyd all think the Bizarro can't be trusted and are still evil. Just waiting for the right moment to strike again.

Nya and Zane are on a more neutral ground. 

Cole is the only one who 100% believes the Bizarros have changed.

- Aries

[ask-the-bizarros]

Please don't hurt them! :(

"Ideally, we won't have to" Zane rested his chin upon folded hands, "If they stand down, we won't have to resort to fighting them."

"Ha, knowing Cole's lookalike, we're gonna be in for a fight" Kai leaned back in his chair, smirking. 

"Even IF we end up fighting them," Nya nudged her brother, narrowing her eyes at the brunet, "We'll do our best not to hurt them badly"

[afandomroom]

Random-

- AU where redeemed Cryptor gets corrupted and is forced to be evil again

- Because why not. Hurt the lad.

- Ever since I added Cryptor to the Redeemed Bizarro Ask Blog, I've started to lowkey ship Cry and Daemon (B!Cole)

- I have never shipped anything outside of Pixane, a canon ship, so I don't know how to handle this realization.

- I will forever be wary of weekends, because of Weekend Whiplash.

- It's fun to see but at the same time I'm constantly on edge, waiting for the next wave of chaos.

- The idea of the ninja playing Minecraft, and it's peaceful for ten minutes before a full on war is unleashed between them.

- Legos, but they're minecraft people instead

- Nya wakes everyone up by summoning water and throwing it in their faces. Bonus if Zane is there to help chill the water.

- Not freeze, chill.

- Kai absolutely loves the cute creatures from Star Wars (Porgs, mainly)

- I feel like Cole would make a decent Hagrid, in a Harry Potter AU.

- Somethin about him gives off Hagrid vibes

[afandomroom]

for the redeemed bizarro ninja au, what about kai and jay? they are my favorite ninja. maybe they adopt someone too, or maybe it was one of them who saved safa in the first fight fic?

Hello, Thank you for the ask!

Unfortunately neither of them are the one's who saved Safa. That job went to my oc Marion, whom we will see more of in the sequel when I can figure out how to write it

However! Both Kai and Jay did turn a new leaf, and I have written a couple of short drabbles on what they've been up to. Hope you enjoy!

Warning: Little bit of angst 

Note: Kai is Ayden and Jay is Azul

------------------------------------------------ He hadn’t meant to burn down the village. Luckily, no one had been harmed, but he’d left these people without a home. They had no where to go, no possessions but the clothes on their back and what few toys the children had been holding. He looked away from the mourning crowd, staring instead at his shaking hands. He swallowed. It was no secret, to him at least, that  his powers were uncontrollable. There was a time where he didn’t care about the skin that burned when he touched it, didn’t care about the accidental fires or scorched furniture. It was destruction, that was all that mattered. He craved it, he was made for it. But ever since they’d left Cole, and Zane had abandoned them…Ayden had found himself questioning his purpose. He had started watching what  he touched, avoiding contact with people. To prevent accidents, he’d taken up traveling, staying on the outskirts of villages and keeping a distance. And for a while, he’d been able to live in peace, to be happy. He’d been able to separate himself from his past. Until on of his hands  brushed against the dry grasses of fields surrounding this village. And the next thing he knew, it was in flames. It was all his fault. These people would sleep without a roof over their heads, and it was all. his. fault. His face felt wet, drops of water steamed as they hit his hands. It didn’t matter how much he wanted to change, everything would always be the same. He couldn’t avoid harming people, not by traveling through the populated Ninjago lands. There was only one place left to go. Turning, Ayden looked to the blurred outlines of the mountains. They were unoccupied, outside of the occasional traveler or monk. Perfect to isolate the raging fire that coursed through him. 

--------------------------------------------- Admittdely, using vengestone to keep his unruly powers at bay wasn’t the best idea he’d ever had. He didn’t need to find Zane- or Blizzard, as he was apparently calling himself now?- to know the effects vengestone had on those with elements. Azul had started experiencing the naseau and shortness of breath. He’d already been on the brink of insomnia before, he could hardly sleep two hours now. It was harder to carry grocery bags, to lift weights. And he supposed a simpler way to avoid hurting someone would be to go lone wolf, like Kai had, and travel. But Azul enjoyed being around people, he wasn’t sure if he could isolate himself from the world. He wanted to hear laughter, to wander around festivals, to hear people’s stories, to hold conversations. It had been weird when he first started noticing how happy being with people made him. He was used to being energized around people, sure. Being around people meant being able to scare them, scaring them meant panic, panic meant chaos and..well….Bizarros were designed to be agents of chaos. But it wasn’t the fear that energized him any more, it was the life, the energy of the people themselves. He didn’t want to leave any of that. He didn’t want to risk hurting anyone either. So, vengstone was the best solution in his eyes. Even if it made daily life a little bit harder, even if the spreading cold spot in his chest kept him awake at night. Small sacrifices to ensure that he could be near people, and they would be safe. It wasn’t like anyone had ever died of vengestone poisoning anyway.

-------------------------------

[afandomroom]

Talk about your ninjago oc's?? I saw a couple of posts in the tags and I wanna know more!

Oooh sure! :D Buckle up because I have a ton and this is probably gonna turn into a lonnng answered ask. 

I'll stick to general answers so it doesn't get to long. If y'want more specific stuff about any of them, just ask!

Ok, to start with newest edition of them all.

Siege (Also know as "The General" or "Zero") 

- They're specific to my Redeemed Cryptor AU.

- They're part of the Overlord's nindroid army in season 3, yes they're a nindroid. 

- They replaced Cryptor as the Overlord's general after Cryptor was discovered to be a double agent and traitor. They were also placed in charge of getting information from Cryptor on the ninja and their whereabouts, and in erasing any traces of Cryptor from the Overlord's ranks. 

- Post- Overlord's defeat, they refused to let Cyrus reprogram/recruit them for his security, so they ran away and disappeared.

- Absolutely hates Cryptor and wants him dead for  betraying the Overlord. 

- Overall they're an arrogant jerk, kinda murderous and very cruel. 

------------------------------------------------------------------

Moving on to, The Partners in Crime. My first ocs. 

Sage Brooks and Asher Woodman. 

- Sage and Asher are a pair of thieves for hire. They were introduced to a life of crime by Ronin at a young age. 

- Sage and Asher met during a skeleton horde attack as kids and they've stuck together since.

- Sage is an archer, with a lot of guilt over things she has done. She's sorta the mom of the group, though Asher, Sage, and Marion all view each other as siblings. She tends to be more heroic than Asher, stopping to save lives during villain attacks and such. 

- Asher is hand to hand combat based, and tends to put on a brave face and push away his own emotional stuff to instead support Sage and Marion. He's a troublemaker. He really only cares about himself and his loved ones safeties, preferring to stay away from villain attacks or at least stay on the villains good sides. The only exception is fellow thieves/criminals. He'll fight them, specifically if he thinks they're a threat to his family, without hesitation. 

- I actually have files for them somewhere on here, but they really need updated. Specifically Sage's. 

- Asher has a girlfriend/wife named Katlyn Mcbrian. She was a fellow thief that he met on a job. They continued a life of crime after marriage, up until Katlyn was pregnant with their twin daughters, Willow and Cedar Woodman. 

---------------------------------------------------------------

Marion Nettle

- He's Sage and Asher's little brother. Sage saved him from a group of SOG members back in Garmadon's take over. 

- He's an elemental master, specifically the elemental master of fear. I also have a file for this element somewhere on here. 

- As mentioned in an earlier post, he was trained by Morro. He was one of Morro's first students after redemption, to be specific. 

- Most people don't react well to his presence, thanks to his element. It hurts but he's gotten used to it. He's also a soft ray of sunshine, a cinnamon roll.

- He's an inbetween ninja, as in he's somewhere between the current ninja and the next generation of ems. As an adult/older teen he leads a small warrior squad named "The Shadow Squad", who watch over Ninjago and help train the next generation of the elemental masters. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Safa Mayfield

- She's from my Redeemed Bizarro Series, and is Daemon (Bizarro! Cole's) little sister. See " Gone Soft"

- She's a really sweet kid, even when she's a teen who acts all tough and sarcastic. 

- Really looks up to Daemon and Blizzard (Bizarro!Zane), and aspires to be like them. Daemon taught her self defense and Blizzard taught her weapon based combat. 

- She becomes a viglante named "Nightmare", and essentially becomes the Shadow Squad's Samurai X later on. She wears red eye contacts as part of her vigilante uniform,  a nod to and attempt to hold a likeness to her bizarro brothers. 

- Does not like the ninja, with the exception of Cole and Marion. And Morro, kinda.

- She's the youngest member of Shadow Squad by two years. Was worried the trainees were scared of her; they aren't, even though she's intimidating.

---------------------------------------------------

Calvin Rune

- Calvin is a dark sorcerer, and a member of the Shadow Squad.

- He lives with his brother, Jerome, who is also a sorcerer, but not of the dark variety. More on him later.

- He is a bit sarcastic, very tired all the time thanks to studying magic for hours on end. 

- He's a bit of trickster, encourages the trainees to prank eachother and place bets (with candy) on stuff. 

- I still need to figure out more for him 😅

------------------------------------------------------

Zoe Rose Johnson

- Zoe is a non-em ninja and a member of the Shadow Squad. They're a team healer.

- They were one of Garmadon's season 3 students. They very much admire him and were inspired to learn how to defeat an opponent without fighting them from him. 

- Has learned chi blocking. 

- They're kind hearted, but are also incredibly stubborn and won't hesitate to physically drag you to the med bay of you refuse to have your injuries looked at. Which is good because Safa will try to walk it off, Calvin will be to tired to take care of himself, and Marion doesn't wanna bother Zoe. 

-------------------------------------------------------

Jerome Rune

- Jerome is Calvin's older brother, and is a Light Sorcerer (? The name is in progress)

- He runs a tea shop known as "Mystery Teas" along with his husband. Before joining Shadow Squad, Calvin worked there, or babysat Jerome's triplets.

- Jerome once had a very strong connection to his magic, and was a powerful sorcerer. He was a capable fighter, as well.

- However, after a near-death experience (with the outcome of severe injuries) during a villain attack, where he attempted to help civilians, he lost his connection to his magic. 

- This isn't connection that can be regained. Once severed, it's gone.

- He got lucky, a specialist managed to salvage some of his magic with a rune of his choice. The magic that remained was condensed into that specific rune, and with practice and concentration, he'd be able to perform the spell that matched that rune. 

- He chose a shield rune.

------------------------------------------------------

Villains
