Chen is a minifigure in Ninjago in 2015. He will be a main antagonist of the fourth season of the Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu TV Series. He is Skylor's father.

Background

Master Chen is a deceitful person who had once trained Garmadon. In season four he hosts a tournament called the "Tournament of Elements" and invites the Ninja. However, "only one can remain" in the tournament. In "Only One Can Remain" Sensei Garmadon reveals Chen had betrayed the Elemental Masters during the Serpentine Wars, Chen had allied himself with the Serpentine and turned the Elemental Masters against each other, but they still, barely, managed to defeat the Serpentine. Also Chen was Garmadon's sensei, and convinced him to sign his name to a letter written by Wu in order to woo Misako. During the Serpentine War, he tricked both sides into thinking that the other would attack, and then sided with the Serpentine while turning the Elemental Masters against each other. At the end of the war he was banished to an island for his crimes, but established a successful restaurant chain in Ninjago. He captured Zane and P.I.X.A.L., using the former to lure the other four ninja into joining his tournament. His daughter is Skylor, who inherited her elemental power of Amber from Chen's unseen ex-wife, and whom Chen planted in the tournament to spy on the Elemental Masters and keep them from banding together against him. Unfortunately for Chen, Skylor's growing feelings for Kai and her recognition of his evil path turned her against him, though he did manage to use her power of Amber to complete his plan to transform his cult into Anacondrai. He then invaded New Ninjago City, capturing Pythor in order to use his sweat to make the transformation permanent, and revealing the truth of Garmadon's old deception to Wu and Misako. However, he met his end when Garmadon allowed himself to be banished to the Cursed Realm, freeing the Serpentine General spirits to whom Chen had lied previously. They then cursed Chen, sending him and his followers into the Cursed Realm, and Chen's pleas for help went unheeded by his daughter, who finally saw her father for the monster he was.
