Aaaaaaa
Pls spill oni stuff! I wanna hear it!!!!
ok so imma gonna start with some lore
basically I've changed how the lore starts, the elements are split between the oni's and the dragons, the main four elements, Fire, Lighting, Earth, and Ice are split between them. Dragon are of creation and have earth and ice, Oni's are of destruction and have Lighting and Fire. All other elements are offshoots of these original four.
The first realm starts with only dragons and oni and the two species balance each other and the realm flourishes, they don't always agree or get along but destruction and creation balance out and everything works.
Omega and the Firstborn are basically gods over their races having powers of pure destruction and creation respectively. And they decided to try and create a new race, one that can balance itself, having access to both destruction and creation. They want to bring the realm into more harmony and hope that this new race can be the bridge between them both. So they create the FSM (who really needs a new name) and he is their son basically. With all four elements with creation and destruction.
Omega and Firstborn teach them all they know, and try to teach him how to keep the balance of the realm. But the FSM favors Firstborn, and creation, he does not understand the need for destruction. He wants perfection and happiness, and he thinks he can achieve that through following creation. At this point he is leading the humans, and the humans don't all have elemental powers, but they're all made from destruction and creation, some have more destruction others more creation, but there is balance. And for awhile everyone lives in harmony.
But after years of watching the people he's unsatisfied and hates how it seems that destruction has taken over some people, making violence and pain and hurt. He decides to take those who have more creation and he leaves to create his own realm, abandoning the others in the realm. He creates Ninjago and separates himself from his own destruction (a dark shadow that eventually becomes the overlord) and is determined to make his own perfect realm that is balanced.
But by doing this he's thrown the first realm out of balance, as the humans aligned with destruction fall further into it, being abandoned and having no counterbalance or law they become the hunters of the first realm. They destroy faster than the dragons can create, throwing the realm out of balance, the oni's try to help, refraining from destruction and even trying to help create but they can't. Magic begins to fade from the oni's and the dragons numbers shrink as the humans devour the land. The first realm used to be a plentiful world of magic and plants and life, but its slowly been draining as their world has fallen more and more out of balance. Both Omega and Firstborn had tried to help but their own powers and magic have been draining as well. So they decide to slumber to try and gather as much strength and magic as they can, hoping that they will be strong enough to correct the wrongs and restore balance.
No one is sure whether they will create a new realm to flee to, or destroy the Hunters and reclaim the realm.
For Ninjago even though the FSM has tried to make his realm in creation the overlord is still in the realm creating destruction, he is the one that transforms a lonely serpentine into the great devourer. A beast that could devour the excess of creation and will always hunger. This is the reason Ninjago is always in danger of destruction, a world made out of balance with too much creation attracts itself to destruction, and it only gets worse and worse until balance or complete destruction is achieved.
Destruction in itself is not a bad thing, and by both oni's and dragons its not seen as something negative but something inevitable and good. Destruction is change for creation, and everything created has an end. But the FSM only saw the pain that comes from seeing something end, and decided to try and make something perfect instead of something balanced. The reason that the FSM eventually dies is that he separated himself from his own destruction putting himself out of balance.
