" Our ancestors let humans who seemed trustworthy into the pack as well, to be safe the ranks were made to keep new members in check. In later years our ansectors tried to find those who were descended from the wolves who left to join the humans with the First Alpha. Over time we lost our ability to transform into our wolf form because of so much human blood, but that doesn't mean we haven't tried our best to keep the bloodline alive. It is the pack's rule that whoever is purest of blood is the alpha. The line of the alpha is always carefully watched and whoever is alpha takes on the name Alpha. However, to humble the new pack members, the students, it is law that they call the alpha master, because he is their teacher. Our ancestors still knew about the problem with the balance though, so the pack took it upon themselves to make sure there was a limited amount of powerful people in Ninjago. They couldn't just go after people in broad daylight though, so they did assassinations at night and humanely got rid of thier prey while they slept. However they could not risk being revealed, so they kept to up most secrecy and would only go after people once a month. We do the same to this day. We're not always successful though, many times people wake up or something happens that forces us to call it off and try next month. We useally go for elemental masters, sorcerers, spinjizu masters, or thier family members or close friends who could inherit powers. " Zephyr had question. " You say sorcerers, what do you mean? " " Have ever heard of the sorcerer Clouse? " Asked Alpha. " A little. " repiled Zephyr. " Like him. " " Why aren't there any sorcerers around anymore? " She asked. " What do you think? " Asked Alpha. Zephyr felt sickened as she realized the truth. " Exactly. Now this went on for many years up until the Serpentine War when my father was alpha, during this they didn't do monthly assassinations. Instead they were in the war on the humans' side of the war, helping people escape and aiding their relatives. The training they had ahead of time was a great advantage in battle and pack members made good assassins when needed."

" I was born shortly after the Serpentine War. When I was grown I married my wife Alfida, you're grandmother, and years later we had your father. Now not to many years after your father was born the unexpected happened, the ninja rose to fame out of nowhere and not long after that most elemental masters came out in the open. My father was still alpha at the time, and fearing for the pack's safety he called off all assassinations. The ninja fought powerful foes and Ninjago was nearly destroy on several occasions like our ansectors said. I tried to convince my father to put an end to the ninja before the world fell apart, but he would not listen to me. I might have tried to take matters into my own hands if I didn't respect my father, or if I wasn't trying to raise my son right in a world that treated the ninja like movie stars. Instead though, I planned for when I would become alpha. Twenty seven years ago I became alpha after my father's death, on the day of my coronation Gamma received a prophecy and gave me detailed instructions how I could not only destroy all powerful humans, but also restore the pack's former glory. It will all begin when an asteroid comes, in the meantime we must gather aurora minerals, the full plan was only shared with myself, Gamma, Alfida, and your father, who at the time was about thirteen. Now we prepared, and even added the asteroid symbol to our capes and knives as reminder of the brighter future ahead. Seven years past and all went well, I even still had both my eyes then. "

" Then the day came when my son Zechariah, your father, was to prove himself to the pack by taking out three at once, Gravis and his two young siblings, who all lived in a house together far away from most people. My son returned claiming he had been successful, he didn't have his knife with him which was odd, but I thought little of it at the time. After that he began to act strange. He'd leave at weird times in the day and night without telling anyone where he was going. This went on for quite awhile. Finally some warriors followed him one night. You'll never guess what they witnessed, they actually saw your father propose marriage to Gravis' younger sister Grace, your mother. " Alpha chuckled a little. " I don't know why I was so blind, he must have been seeing her for at least half a year before we found out. However before the spies could return to tell me, Gravis discovered them watching your parents and chased them all the way to one of our mines where the pack members tried to hide out. A fight started and somehow a fire started in the mine, the pack members escaped and they watched as the fire made the aurora minerals melt into a liquid and Gravis fell in. " Alpha's story was horrifying, but Zephyr stayed quiet, because she'd wanted to know all this for so long... " The only remains they could find of him was his turban and they brought that to me along with the news of my son's betrayal. I'll be honest, I was shocked, but I got over it by the time he returned home. I showed him Gravis' turban and told him I knew everything. He looked horrified, then and there he left and I never saw him or anyone related to Gravis again, until today. "
He froze when realized this was a bedroom. The walls were painted in bright colors and there was painting stuff and art supplies organized on shelves and in neat boxes. A painting easel with a canvas was on the left side of the room with a unfinished painting on it and on the walls there were finished paintings hanging up. He couldn't see the paintings very well, but from what he could see they were really good. He then turned his attention to the bed on the right side of the room, it was occupied by the the owner of the room, the artist of all these wonderful paintings. He crept up to the bed and looked down at the sleeping figure, it was a girl, who to his shook looked to be about his age. He'd expected Gravis' younger sister to be older, especially since Gravis himself was like forty or fifty after all, yet here his sister was looking to be about twenty like himself. He took a closer look, the girl had long blonde hair and pink pajamas, she was resting soundly. She looked so peaceful. He cursed at himself in his head. He shouldn't be paying attention to his target, that was the trick, make your prey seem as unalive and unhuman as possible. It was his duty to rid the world of people with power, and to do that they had to keep their numbers down, even if they had done nothing... This was nature, this was the balance, this was ok? Besides he had to do this to prove he would make a good future Alpha, the pack depended on him, their future was in his hands. Admittedly he wasn't the best suited to be Alpha, but there were very few others who could be the next Alpha, it had to be him, he was purest of blood. He took his knife out the pouch he kept it in, it was brand new and sharp, the symbols were green, his favorite color. He was prepared to do it, it would be quick, humane. He hovered the knife over her throat, however he made the terrible mistake of looking at her face. She had no idea she was so close to smashing, she had no idea she'd never wake up to finish her painting, or that her brothers would be smashed right after she was. Plus she was kind of pretty... He couldn't do it...
" Our ancestors realized that if this kept going eventually two would rise to be so powerful that their fight would destroy the world as we know it. So to prevent this our ansectors figured out a simple solution, destroy power, this way nothing more powerful can rise and bring destruction. So the alpha at the time along with a handful of the pack came to the most powerful warriors in the land, the elemental masters. Our ancestors told them of this doom that would come if they would not give up their elemental powers. The elemental masters of the time refused, saying that our ancestors were crazy and out of their minds. Alpha of the time told them they would regret their choice and they left them. To prove the truth to the elemental masters Alpha freed a monster from the Underworld. It attacked the elemental masters, however after defeating it the elemental masters discovered it was our ansectors who freed the monster. Hungry for revenge the master of fire at the time gathered a group of other elemental masters and raided the forest in the late morning when the pack slept. He burned the forest and the others slayed our ansectors like animals. The ironic thing was they didn't just use their elemental powers to do the job either, most of our kind were lost to the sword and the fire that spread throughout the forest. Once the elemental masters thought our ansectors were all gone they raided what remained of their homes and left. It was said that when the other elemental masters heard of this they were horrified, they took the group's powers by force and banished them to the Cursed Realm. The only survivors were two of Alpha's sons and the wife of the older brother. The three of them went into hiding and the younger brother met and married a human. Time pasted, the older brother had twelve children and the younger had three, this was the beginnings of the new pack. "
Whoawhoawhoa-- previous Master of Fire? As in, Ray, Kai and Nya's dad? Ô.O

I know you've never seen "Avatar: the Last Airbender", but for some reason I keep getting these Avatar vibes.

Okay, this is kind of a weird question, but can I get a rundown of what the main cast looks like? It would make it easier to have the pictures in my head.

Now I'm really glad I never deleted those character descriptions I used for that cover art months ago.
OK, so, very basic rundown: Zephyr: She wears a pale blue gi, usually, and has white hair with blue streaks. Her hair is in the style of Pixal's. Jadyn: Reddish/fiery orange hair, kind of shaggy. He has a scar-burn-I-think on one side of his face. Lisa: Blond hair in a braid, pretty sure she's in a normal human form, but is a robot, much like Zane's first body. Moe Turner: Long, light auburn hair that nearly reaches his shoulders. Alpha: Long dark gray hair that was once auburn, and short gray facial hair; half his face is burned off, leaving only one gray-black eye; wears a black uniform with a cape, insignias such as a wolf paw with three strips signaling his rank and a gray comet stand out gray on his shirt. Azelela: Raven-black hair that falls to her shoulders. Lloyd: Picture the Old Lloyd from Skybound, but wearing a green gi similar to his dad's.
