i draw my ocs about once a year and its November so...

Fayelynn was raised a monk and a scribe witnessing Ninjago history and transcribing it to scrolls in the mountains. She was present to witness the second battle of the Overlord, this event triggered her element which tore her from her work as scribes aren't meant have elements or the ability to influence history. She was eventually sent to the ninja to train to control her ability to summon portals. Her main teacher is Jay while her power is controlled/helped almost solely by Lloyd as they both wield different aspects of energy. Faye is my introduction character to my religious system of lore for ninjago. Almost solely started by wondering why if the fsm created Ninjago is his family not royalty? And how the people on the ground view the ninja over the years. Surely there have been other ninja in the past or a protector of sorts. How many people were aware of the prophecy and how it affected scholars and conspiracy theorists alike while being kept a close-ish guarded secret between the FSM family

Irzu follows/mirrors Zane. His family of crystal users more or less hacked into immortality by using their crystals to slow/stop age progression. After an attack on their clan, Irzu was left wandering the southern Ninjago islands with no memory until Zane found him and asked if he had a home. Zane helps him cope with the fact he may never remember his past while Wu knows damn well his family was assassinated for "defying god" 100 years ago. His source crystal keeps him alive, it is very susceptible to corruption so he has to find peace and meditate a lot to keep his energy pure.

Qi is part of the elemental family of light. Light unlike most elements can have multiple users. Different aspects of light are manipulated by different people. The Pale Man uses reflection to appear invisible. Qi refracts light creating blinding rainbowlike glares. Their grandfather (em during the serpentine war) projected light from himself essentially creating flashbangs. The Wei family uses their gifts to maintain the Temple of the Sun and the village beneath it They can also divine prophecies from the Great Light. The Pale man deflected from his family to be himself and Qi is sent out to go get his cousin. On the journey he touches the Great Light, has a vision, and runs to Master Wu and the ninja to tell them. He helps the ninja with a task and Nya and Cole offer him a room. He doesn't need a teacher but they just want him to loosen up and take a break. They help him get his shit together with his sense of self, a hobby, and a cat.
