My son (Lloyd Garmadon) recommended that I participate (before the multiverse, dimension debacle).

Ask me anything, without breaking the law. You all have self-control (or you will if I choose to block you, mwa-ha-ha-ha-hah!)

Uhm... Hi?

Sora taught me glamour spells. Would I be able to just hide my dragon features or would I be sniffed out?

- @tech-whiz-sora (Arin)

If you walk in there with only glamour, all the oni would be able to sniff you out. If you disguise your scent, there is still a decent few old oni that can look through glamour.

...

I was just about to ask that...

What kind of things would Source Oni represent, then? Uh. Hm...

... Wait does this imply that the Sources are just... That? Sources? And that they could give elemental powers to anyone and anything?

...

...

in my timeline of events, an elemental power works kind of like a restraint. A leash. Elemental masters are strong, but never *too* strong. Without effects like Nya’s merging with the sea thing. Elemental masters have borrowed power, and however long the leash is, it always leads back to a source dragon. The source dragons do not chose who gains their elements. All other elemental master rules (familial descent, no two same masters at once) still apply here.

the oni reject this. And they have for centuries. One way or another, they’ve managed to magically program themselves into being largely incompatible with elements. They reject this leash, this upper limit on strength, which is no suprise. There are anomalies, to some degree. Lloyd. Wu, Garmadon, myself. But none of us are 100% oni, and even Garmadon lost his element during his unfortunate reancarnation.

there…is a downside, of course. Oni ultimately just have a different upside to strength, which is madness. If an Oni ever becomes too powerful, they go mad, and their power consumes them completely. Now that I think about it…it’s a little like Merge Sickness. An Oni must be incredibly powerful for this to happen though. The most prominent example of this is the former Warlord of Hate. It’s a very horrible fate to meet.

I experienced this somewhat during my tournament of elements. I had what, five? Elements? I nearly went mad. Kind of. It wasn’t the skin-melting power-exploding madness the warlord before me felt, it was more…my head was going to explode madness. I forfeit for that reason, just wasn’t safe.

... I feel like Sora would be able to deduce any changes with you. You should ask her.

Sora slowly took off her mercenary head gear, staring at Percival.

Uh, did you notice anything weird? Like during spinjitzu did you notice traces of shatterspin in it? Or did it look unstable? Is his power levels much higher than normal to you too? Can Oni even see other power levels or is that more visual and not energy sensing like conduits can-

SORA. WHAT DID YOU DO.

Sora what did you do? I mean, I feel fine.

Percy, in using oni and Theoxrian infused animal DNA I might've accidentally... Given you trace amounts of Destruction and Chaos elements themselves that you're starting to manifest.

... What.

It's small, but it's very bright and very high in voltage from what I can see, uh... Try blasting that rock.

Wait, hold on. Is this like a strength enhancement or something?

Uh...

Percival looked at her, his eyes sparkling.

She quickly leapt out of the way before Percival rammed into her, but the sheer force of his movement nearly landing a hit on her made her fall back harshly.

Okay...! So, making a couple of estimates based on the energy signature- AH-

Percival managed to throw her directly into a rock, letting it shatter. She grunted, forcing herself up despite her lungs being on fire. She continued to comment as the two fought.

Your strength got increased quite drastically because you're subconsciously tapping into that trace amounts of power-

She moved out of the way again, rolling onto her side before getting up. She quickly caught his leg, throwing her own punch as he dodged.

Reflexes are around the same level, so is movement but each impact is drastically stronger. The genes were to only give it a 10% increase but this is more around 34% of a power increase!

Sora forced herself out of range, catching her breath. Percival quickly called a motion to call off the fight.

So what you're saying is that the destruction chaos thing isn't really dangerous?

To be honest... No. It just caught me off guard. It looks unstable because chaos energy naturally appears unstable, and paired with the destruction aspect I was kinda fearing the worst...

So I'm just... A lot stronger than normal in terms of physical strength, right?

No, Percival is not at a risk of dying. His strength is just drastically... More, than before. Not a bad thing! His body is stable and capable of holding this much energy inside it, but it'd be best for him to learn how to use his element and try to figure out what it exactly does.

“she should tough it out. The weak will die.”

“Nokt don’t say that—and when did you get here?”

Lloyd flew over to them, quietly waved, picked up Sora, and promptly flew away with her.

... Anyway- Wait, Papa! Hi, Papa!

Cole, waving the two off.

”HAHA LITTLE MANS”

Nokt grabs Percival, lifts him up into the air, and spins him around, marveling his kids newest form.

His tail was definitely wagging.

“…I don’t visit either.”

“Just ask Kai.”

“You know I don’t talk to Kai.” (Cole)
