An old man visited us last night. He had taken ill, and he needed shelter. It was as if winter had followed him here.
Dr. Julien to Wu
An unnamed man, referred to as the Master of Ice[2] or simply Ice,[3] was the Elemental Master of Ice during the Serpentine War. At some point after the war and shortly before his death, he gave his powers to Zane, the future White Ninja.
History
Serpentine War
In the Elemental Alliance, the Master of Ice fought against the Anacondrai in the Birchwood Forest. The Alliance was betrayed when they were attacked by the Master of Earth, who had been manipulated by Chen.
Battle for All of Time
Shortly after winning the war, the Alliance was betrayed by the Time Twins, the two Elemental Masters of Time. This left the Alliance with no choice but to fight back. In the ensuing battle, the Master of Ice attempted to blast ice at Krux, but he was frozen in time and struck by Krux.
With the Alliance having been overpowered, the Master of Ice watched as Wu told Maya and Ray he has a plan to defeat the Hands of Time. When Wu and Garmadon defeated the Time Twins at the monastery with Time Blades forged from Chronosteel, the Master of Ice restrained Krux while Wu and Garmadon let the blades be lost in the temporal vortex. However, the twins chose to be lost to time and, after fighting off their restrainers went into the vortex as well.
Lost in Time
Immediately after this, future versions of Krux and Acronix landed at the monastery in the Iron Doom, confusing the Elemental Masters at first. The Masters fought the twins and their army of Vermillion to keep them out of the monastery. When they were outnumbered, "Ray" and "Maya" came to help. The Vermillion suddenly separated into snake form and fused inside the Iron Doom.
The Masters watched as "Ray" and "Maya" summoned the Fusion Dragon to defeat the Iron Doom. The Masters fought the Iron Doom as a distraction. When "Ray," "Maya," and Wu followed the twins into the vortex, Wu told the Alliance to drink Obscuritea to restore the future.
After the Battle for All of Time
The Elemental Master of Ice visited Dr. Julien's workshop in the Birchwood Forest while ill and stayed for the night. He had taken a particular interest in Zane and passed his powers on to him.[4] Sometime later, he perished.[1]
Official description
This white-haired warrior fought with the other Elemental Masters during the Serpentine Wars. He had no children, so at the end of his life, he passed his powers on to Zane-who had no idea about the gift he'd been given.[1]
