I FINALLY BRING YOU ALL HARMONIZER LORE!!! For those who don't know, Harmonizers are an original species I created for my Ninjago universe and specifically my OC Hanna. Below is everything you need to know about who they were, what they looked like, and what they did/didn't do. I also threw in some nice bits of extra culture lore bc why not lol.

Backstory:

First of all, we are aware of 16 Realms in the Ninjago Universe (examples of them are Ninjago, the Never Realm, The Realm of Oni and Dragon, The Wyldness, etc). Harmonizers originated from a 17th Realm, one that isn't canon to the actual series.

This realm is called, "The Lost Realm." It's because this realm was destroyed and became a barren wasteland without life because of a war.

So, in modern day Ninjago (Dragons Rising Era), The Lost Realm doesn't exist, most people don't know it ever did. When The Lost Realm became void of life, it crumbled into what I call Realm Essence.

Also in my lore, the First Spinjitzu Master used the Realm Essence from The Lost Realm to complete the creation of Ninjago. I'll touch more on this in a bit, explaining why this is.

What was in The Lost Realm?

Well, The Lost Realm housed a species of people called Harmonizers. I'll talk about Harmonizers specifically below, for now it's stuff about just The Lost Realm.

The Lost Realm was also a jackpot of various minerals and plants which are rare in other realms like Traveler's Trees and Chronosteel deposits.

In The Lost Realm, there was also vegetation with powerful healing properties. These plants would end up transferring some of their healing power into the soil, allowing for everyday plants to be grown and have similar healing properties.

There was also this specific kind of fruit called Master's Root (yes root even though its a fruit). It looks like a mango but tastes like a strawberry. And if an elemental master consumes it, they get a temporary boost in their powers.

So for example, if Kai ate Master's Root, he would go from an average firepower of say 4 out of 5 to a 6 out of 5 for as long as the fruit is in his system.

The fruit has negative properties too, it's juice is venomous to Harmonizers. If they consume Master's Root, it can cause various negative side effects. The known side effects are; opposite personality changes, aching muscles and joints, extreme migraines, fatigue, and uncontrollable power fluctuations. I'll explain more about this later.

How did The Lost Realm fall? What was the 'war?'

I say war in quotations because technically, there wasn't a civil or native war to The Lost Realm. In actuality, The Lost Realm was invaded by a different species from a different realm. The Invaders... invaded (lol) because they wanted the power of the Harmonizers for themselves (classic Ninjago occurrence).

The Lost Realm was put under extreme distress because of conflicts between the Invaders and the Harmonizers. So much so, it produced a freak event in the form of a child named Fuwa. Like other things, I'll explain Fuwa later.

All thats needed to know about Fuwa now is that she was the reason The Lost Realm fell. She was able to recognize the Invaders wouldn't stop their assault on her realm and if they succeeded, they would only move onto a different realm to take over. So in a very sad scene, Fuwa used her power to destroy The Lost Realm and everything in it, including the Invaders and the remaining Harmonizers, leaving her as the last living Harmonizer.

This also means Fuwa was the one who caused the burst of Realm Essence for the First Spinjitsu Master to use. Before you wonder, yes, Fuwa and the First Spinjitsu Master have a relationship (FRIENDSHIP!!! NOT A SHIP!!) and would end up becoming the 'gods' of Ninjago basically.

wow this post is long. i'm breaking this into two parts uhhhh
