Cole and Kai

Personality:   Cole used to be more uptight and strategic, disapproving of Kai's impulsiveness. Before meeting Wu, Cole lacked direction and purpose. At this time, his mother just passed away and he was struggling to take care of the family himself. As a ninja, Cole thoroughly enjoys helping others in need and feels accomplished with a job well done. In the pilot episodes, Cole insisted he was without fear, though Zane quickly pointed out his fear of dragons. When the ninja had to recruit their dragons, Cole awkwardly stood on top of the Earth Dragon instead of properly mounting him. Despite his initial hesitance, he grew to accept the Earth Dragon, even learning to care for him more than the other ninja cared for theirs. He was also worried to face his dad and dance in Season 1. He had a fear of ghosts in Season 5, which he was also able to overcome after turning into a ghost and facing Master Yang. This was the same with singing in front of people in Season 8. Cole has had the most fears expressed and conquered, despite acting like the bravest of the ninja. Cole may act on instinct or impulse without thinking first, as seen in "Wishmasters", where two of his wishes went to waste. He is shown to have fatherly tendencies, caring for baby Wu as his own in Season 8, even going to the extent of calling him Cole Jr. before figuring out the baby's identity. He was often shown being protective of the deaged Wu as well, examples being when he attempted to threaten Ultra Violet should she harm the child, running into the ninjas' cabin to protect him when the Bounty crashed, and making sure the deaged Wu was safely hidden behind a rock before joining the other ninja in using his Spinjitzu. Throughout the season, Cole was his main caretaker. Another example of these tendencies was in Season 11, where Cole threatened Krag with a parent-like punishment: to not let him play video games. Cole has kept a strong relationship with his father, Lou, ever since Season 1. Before, he would lie to his father through letters about his dance practice, not wanting to disappoint him. Whenever the Royal Blacksmiths would be performing, Cole would point out his dad proudly. Since then as well, Cole has been more confident in his dancing and singing. He occasionally does the move Triple Tiger Sashay in a fight and in Season 8, he openly sang. He is also addictive, mainly his love for cake. He has also shown these same tendencies for noodles from Chen's Noodle House. In general, Cole seems to have a great love for food and eating, despite being shown to be a terrible cook in Season 1. Sometimes he eats without thinking though, like when Dareth hid weapons in a cake for them, or eating the fortune cookie without taking out the fortune. In Season 9, the others joked about how he might be overweight, but Cole points out how he had shown a lot of self restraint in Seasons 8 and 9 by staying away from cake, even stating that "his body is a temple". At the beginning of Season 8, Jay comments that Cole has become a party pooper since Master Wu had gone missing after Season 7. This was due to Cole giving up cake. It seems like a drastic change for him, and may be inferred that the loss of Wu affected Cole immensely. Similarly, the death of his mother, Lilly, prior to the series, impacted him and forced him to become more responsible at a younger age, explaining his tendency to become a leader and take more responsibility to deal with loss. He and Zane are the most serious and focused of the ninja. However, that does not stop him from allowing his one-track mind or competitiveness to get the best of him. Once he really sets his mind to something, he will remain interested in it until it is fulfilled (for instance, when he was itching for a fight in "Island of Darkness"). Cole is one to put himself at risk before his friends, as shown when he gave Jay the Jadeblade during Season 4. He has shown sympathy toward Zane, Lloyd, young Wu and Jay when they were melancholic. However, when trying to comfort his allies, he seems to have difficulty finding the correct words to do so, only able to accomplish the task with the example of his teammates. He always encourages his friends to do the right things but tries not to force them. This happened with Jay in Season 6 and Wu in Season 9. If it comes down to it though, he will try to solve the problem. He tends to be patient and give others the benefit of the doubt, as seen in "Scavengers" when he told the others to not be so hard on Lloyd, who was trying to lead at the time. Cole has been shown to make allies easily. Examples of this include Master Yang, Krag in the Never-Realm, and the Upply in Shintaro. Cole seems to be very understanding and willing to help those who need it. Cole is also never willing to leave someone behind, as shown in Season 4 with the factory workers and eliminated Elemental Masters. This was an early example in the show of his promise to his mother to "always stand up to those who are cruel and unjust", even though the phrase was never shown until Season 13. Rarely does Cole back down from a fight, for better or worse. When Jay aggravated Cole about Nya, Cole was willing to fight back. However, it doesn't seem like it was about Nya as much as it was about seeing who was the better of the two. However, in the end his maturity manages to shine through, with him finally ending the fight in the Tournament of Elements. Since then, Cole is proud to be considered Jay's best friend and is shown to return this friendship. Season 11 showed how sensitive Cole is to keep his friends happy and how he hates letting them down. This is most evident when Cole felt extreme guilt for losing the Traveler's Tea. He also seemed like a pretty good artist, making some pretty well-drawn ninja puppets to tell the kids stories about Aspheera and how the ninja got into the Never-Realm. The other times we see drawings from him are the ones hanging in Lilly's room when he was younger in Season 13 and in Season 1 when Nya was explaining the venom of the Venomari. In Season 12, he and Kai heroically both sacrificed themselves for the others to win the Speedway Five-Billion. Both Jay and Cole in this season were shown to be the video game experts on the team. Cole has a lot of ideas that seem to typically be shot down or cause doubt. In Season 4, as he tried to find the trigger for a secret passage in Kai's suite, the other ninja questioned him. Later in the season as he and the factory workers plan an escape, his plan of rolling into giant egg rolls was rejected. His argument against a Roto Jet was also ignored. In Season 13, Cole seeing a purple creature in his bedroom wasn't believed by the ninja or Wu. Later, Cole tries to lead Master Wu, Vania, and the Lowly out of the mountain by making choices like riding the minecart and using the stone mech to push it. Not only was there doubt, but when they barely succeeded each time, Cole would claim dizzily, "Another great idea!" Cole has a lot of confidence in his super strength. In Season 4 after Chen took his elemental power, Cole yelled that they couldn't take his super strength, in which he was quickly proven wrong. This happened again when the ninja were put in jail. In Season 8, his advice to Lloyd to impress Harumi was to act tough and flex his muscles. Cole is the most likely ninja to give nicknames. Some nicknames/name calling include calling Zane "Tin Can," or "Pinky" (when Zane's gi was pink in Can of Worms) and calling Jay "Motormouth," "Zaptrap," and "Bluebell." He also makes fun of his friends' crushes, like when Kai thought Skylor could've been related to him, or after Lloyd went into town with Harumi. For himself, he befriended Princess Vania, but nothing romantic occurred between the two and he assured Lloyd that he doesn't like her in that way since they just met. Cole has a somewhat uncreative naming sense, although Zane stated Cole was much better at naming things than he was. He was presumably the one to name his Earth Dragon "Rocky", and other names he came up with have been "Rocky Dangerbuff", Dangerbuff Jr.", "Snake Jaguar", and "Cole Jr.". When he is alone, he often talks to himself, as shown in "Snake Jaguar" or "The Skull Sorcerer." According to Tommy Andreasen, Cole "is a selfless empathic person ... as simple as that" Earth: Cole commands the element of Earth, giving him great physical strength and durability. He can stand his ground to a supernatural degree and enemies frequently act as though they have hit a person-shaped brick wall when they bump into him. At full power, he can manipulate the earth below his feet, causing earthquakes, creating fissures, throwing rocks and dust at enemies, or even burying things in rapidly-rising mounds of dirt. Earth Punch: After defeating Yang, Cole obtains superhuman strength, even more so than before. This is seen in use when his arms glow orange. Cole himself doesn't even know the extent of this new ability, nor is he an expert at controlling its power. At times, his hands appear to have a mind of their own when the power is activated. But over time he manages to control it and summon it at will, but it is shown that if he becomes lazy and doesn't train, it loses its ability. Elemental Golem: Sometime after the Merge, Cole obtained the ability to transform into a golem, using his Earth Punch and surrounding rocks. Spinjitzu: Like his fellow ninja, he can also perform Spinjitzu. He can combine his Earth Punch with Spinjitzu to make a magma trail. Spinjitzu Burst: In contrast to the other ninja, Cole possesses the unique ability to execute the Spinjitzu Burst. Initially, Cole harbored reservations regarding his mother's capacity to perform the technique until he recollected the promise he had made to her to stand up for what is right. Airjitzu: Cole can perform Airjitzu. Dancing: After coming to terms with his dancing heritage, Cole gains a surprising amount of grace and flexibility, allowing him to wriggle out of tight spaces when he relaxes himself. Triple Tiger Sashay: His new agility also enables him to perform the Triple Tiger Sashay, which is effective against multiple opponents or for getting himself out of trouble. As a ghost: Possession: As a ghost, Cole can possess materials like snow, objects like a keyhole, and mechanisms like the Ice Mech. Intangibility: Cole also has the ability to phase through solid objects, but become solid himself if he concentrates. Levitation: Cole can levitate if he concentrates hard enough. Invisibility: Cole can become invisible if he concentrates, but is still visible to paranormal scanners. Weapons Scythe: In battle, Cole favored scythes, especially the Scythe of Quakes. He wielded a larger and sharper scythe in Season 7. Elemental Blade: He later wielded an Elemental Blade with the power of Earth, allowing him to use his elemental powers to great effect once more. Techno Blade: During the Nindroid crisis, Cole, along with the other three ninja (Kai, Jay, and Zane), received Techno Blades, a weapon which allowed the ninja to hack into any electronics. Aeroblade: He also had an Aeroblade (along with Kai, Jay, and Zane) that can destroy ghosts. Hammer: Post-movie, Cole wielded a large hammer that he uses to slam the ground and channel the power of Earth. Golden hammer: As of Season 11: Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu, Cole uses his golden hammer. Prime controller: Cole's personal weapon used in Prime Empire, designed as a small scythe. Mace: In Season 13: Master of the Mountain, Cole briefly used a mace he found in the Heart of the Mountain. Blades of Deliverance: Cole briefly wielded his mother's Blades of Deliverance during his fight with the Skull Sorcerer. He used them to great ability until they broke when Vangelis used the Skull of Hazza D'ur to shatter them. Kai is the current Elemental Master and Ninja of Fire, Nya's older brother, Skylor’s boyfriend, Ray and Maya's son, and mentor of Wyldfyre. He and his younger sister worked as blacksmiths in their father's blacksmith shop all their life until they met Master Wu. With his guidance, Kai learned Spinjitzu and discovered his other teammates, Cole, Jay, Zane, and Lloyd, with whom he embarked on many adventures; battling the likes of the Serpentine and the Stone Army. After Zane's sacrifice to defeat the Overlord, the ninja parted ways before reuniting to go rescue Zane on Chen's Island. There, Kai grew closer to Skylor, one of the tournament contenders, as they competed in the Tournament of Elements. Ultimately, he allied with the other Elemental Masters to defeat Chen's Anacondrai Cultists. After the war ended, Lloyd was possessed by Morro, who escaped the Cursed Realm and released a legion of ghosts. Kai and the ninja battled Morro and his forces before the Cursed Realm was destroyed. The ninja found fame after saving Stiix, but when Nadakhan returned with the Sky Pirates, Kai was the first of the ninja trapped in the Sword of Souls. Jay eventually freed him and the rest of the ninja, and reversed these events with his final wish. On the Day of the Departed, Kai and Nya fought a revived Chen, who they defeated once more. When the Time Twins returned to Ninjago, Krux tried to convince Kai that Kai's parents were traitors. Kai and Nya reunited with their parents and stopped Krux and Acronix from changing the future, but at the cost of losing Wu in the Time Vortex. A year later, Kai and the ninja watch over Princess Harumi after she loses her adopted parents. They later discover she's secretly the leader of the Sons of Garmadon and wants to resurrect Lord Garmadon. Despite the ninja's efforts, Harumi succeeds, and shortly after Kai is marooned in the First Realm with Cole, Jay, Zane and a de-aged Wu. Kai and the ninja help save the dragons from the Dragon Hunters, and help Wu regain his confidence and memories. After Iron Baron's defeat, Wu reclaims the Dragon Armor, in turn allowing them to return to Ninjago. Kai and his allies take down Garmadon's Colossus, restoring peace to Ninjago once more. Not long after, the malicious Oni invade Ninjago, forcing the ninja to ally with Lord Garmadon. Kai uses his blacksmithing skills to reforge the Golden Armor into the Golden Weapons, and later defeats the Oni by using the Tornado of Creation with the other ninja, Wu, and Garmadon. Typically preferring red attire, Kai has tall, thick spiky brown hair, shaped like fire, similar to his hair in The LEGO Ninjago Movie. He is often seen with a focused expression on his face, with a scar visible on his right eyebrow and a bandage above his left, which has been there for a long time, possibly because he thinks it looks cool.[1] Before Season 8, his hair was a slightly darker shade of brown, his eyebrows were black, his bangs parted to the right and instead of a scar, and he had a notch on his left eyebrow. However, he has a scar below his eye in the LEGO sets released prior to Season 8, which is now reflected in the sets and in the show after Season 8 onwards. From Season 11 onward, his hair is more textured with color. Flashbacks from Season 7 show that Kai used to have freckles when he was young, while wearing short tan pants are a red shirt with his lion symbol. In a flashback from "Fugitives From Madness," Kai now uses his physical set hairpiece (most likely due to WildBrain not having access to the original hair model), and has brown eyebrows and the shirt is slightly redesigned, now using his legacy lion symbol. In "Way of the Ninja" and "Endings," Kai wore a white shirt and red pants as well as an orange apron. Since "The Royal Blacksmiths," Kai's civilian attire consists of a red half-zipped up sweater over a maroon shirt with his symbol on the chest and brown pants. Throughout Season 6, he wore a red cap over his hair to conceal his identity. In the pilot and The New Masters of Spinjitzu, it can be observed that Kai has chest hair while wearing pajamas, but in later appearances where his chest is visible, including the appearance of his past self while time traveling to the events of the pilot, the hair is no removed, retconning his original torso. Fittingly for his elemental affinity, Kai is very hot-headed, prone to taking action before he thinks things through. He is capable of making careful observations when the need arises, but his emotions often override his caution. His single-mindedness made interaction with his teammates difficult at first (especially due to his worry about Nya), but he eventually learned to work with the other ninja. He can be very cocky at times, especially earlier in his career as a ninja, sometimes even to the point of selfishness, insisting that he is better than others, gloating about his victory, or yelling about his failures. He seems to have a large ego as he wanted to be the Green Ninja and lead the team. He eventually grew out of this for the most part, though he occasionally lapses back into a similar mindset. But those emotions are also when his strength is greatest, especially when protecting those he cares about. Kai´s personality represents caution, growth, safety,and warmth. He may not say it much, but he deeply cares about his loved ones and will do anything to protect them, even at the cost of his own life, which is why he´s so overconfident. Later, following the ninja's fame, Kai would end up getting something of a larger head and bigger ego, constantly flirting with girls and enjoying the merchandise styled after him. He indulged in his fame the most out of all of the ninja.[11] Usually, because he often feels insecure, Kai feels like he´s useless or insignificant at times or not as good as the other ninja. Kai also has something of an overconfident stubborn side, believing that he is in the right until overwhelming evidence to the contrary is presented. This is especially pronounced during Lord Garmadon's stay on the Destiny's Bounty; Kai repeatedly accused the four-armed villain of treachery or plotting despite Garmadon's insistence that saving Lloyd was his primary concern at the time.[12] On the other hand, Kai's stubborn streak lends him incredible determination that allows him to bolster the team's spirit in the face of impossible odds. and, at another point, losing hope when his power was taken by Aspheera.[14][15][16] Overall, Kai is a tough, brave, confident, passionate ninja. The most prevalent facet of Kai's personality is his good heart and dedication to the people he cares about—if someone can earn his friendship, he will stop at nothing to protect them. Much of his stubbornness and recklessness is due to his desire to help his loved ones, either directly or by becoming strong enough to defeat anyone who might threaten them with their plans. In turn, his friends and family work to balance out Kai's more extreme traits, causing him to become a level-headed mentor for Lloyd by the time he and his comrades begin training the Green Ninja. According to Zane, Kai's desire to protect his friends is just as powerful as his temper. Unlike his sister, Kai likes to spend time with his parents and does not mind it when his mother tends to baby him. He also formed a better relationship with Ray while playing video games at the monastery with Cole. Fire: Being the Elemental Master of Fire, Kai can create Fire with his own hands and either throw it, use it as boxing gloves, or unleash a burst of flames towards his opponents. It is also shown that he can withstand high temperatures and walk through fire unharmed. He also has the ability to move fire at will. Combat: Even before his ninja training, Kai is a competent fighter, wielding a sword against the Skulkin when they attacked the blacksmith shop. Kai manage to fight Karlof and Ash in the Tournament of Elements, although Kai lost twice against Karlof he did mange to put up a fight and with Ash, he was mostly fighting using his ninja training skills. Once Kai started to use his powers, he manage to defeat Ash. Kai is also capable of performing hand-to-hand combat, able to go toe-to-toe with the Time Twins and later Kalmaar. He also manage to have the upper hand against his fight with Aspheera, before Pythor help restrain him. Years later after the Merge, Kai skills improved to the point where he manage to fight the New Master of Smoke, Cinder, and even predict his attacks. Once Kai learned the Rising Dragon, he manage to outmatch Cinder again. Swordsmanship: As Kai's primary weapon is often swords, he is skilled in using many types of blades. Blacksmith: Kai can work as a blacksmith when needed. As seen in "Endings," he was able to melt down the Golden Armor, and reforge it into the weapons it was previously made from. Although, Nya used to tell him he was a terrible blacksmith, as of "Way of the Ninja." Somehow, he was able to gain these skills with hardly any practice at all.

Weapons Swords, katanas, and blades: Kai favors swords in combat, taking up a curved silver blade against the Skulkin when they attacked his shop. Sword of Fire: He used the Sword of Fire as his primary weapon until it was lost, and then switched to wielding regular katanas. Elemental Blade: He eventually gained an Elemental Blade that allowed him to harness his fire abilities to an even greater degree. Techno Blade: Months after Lloyd defeated the Overlord, Kai, along with the other three ninja (Cole, Jay, and Zane), receive Techno Blades, a weapon which allows the ninja to hack into any electronics. Aeroblade: He also has an Aeroblade (along with Cole, Jay and Zane) that can destroy ghosts. Dragon Blade: In Season 7, Kai used a double-bladed dagger created by his father Ray that is use for combat or to create the Fusion Dragon. It can also be used as the key to unlocking the Ancient Library of Hono Mizu, only when the current Masters of Fire and Water are holding it. Twin katanas: In Season 8: Sons of Garmadon and Season 10: March of the Oni he switched to using two katanas. Golden katana: As of Season 11: Secrets of the Forbidden Spinjitzu, Kai uses his golden katana. Prime Blade: Kai's personal weapon used in Prime Empire. This helped him fight to get the purple Key-Tana. Machete: In Season 13: Master of the Mountain, Kai briefly used a machete as his weapon.
