- “You have to do better than that to unite the tribes!”
- ―Skales to Pythor P. Chumsworth in "Can of Worms"
Skales is the current general of the Hypnobrai snake tribe, formerly second in command to Slithraa. He currently is second in command to Pythor, making second in command of the entire Serpentine.
Background
Skales was introduced in the second season of Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu, Rise of the Snakes. He was the Hypnobrai tribe warrior when Lloyd Garmadon unlocked the Hypnobrai tomb. When the General of the Hypnobrai tribe, Slithraa, came under Lloyd's control, Skales saw an opportunity to seize power. Lloyd made the Hypnobrai perform childish acts such as raid an entire village for candy (where they lost the snake staff), or build a tree-house fortress. As the Hypnobrai were constructing Lloyd's tree-house fortress, the ninja attacked them to try and stall them. Skales hypnotized Cole to keep the other ninja busy while the snakes went to retrieve their Snake staff back. After the Hypnobrai got their staff back, they went back to the tomb, Skales holding the staff. When Slithraa wanted the staff back, he demanded for Skales to give it back, but Skales was defiant and the two Serpentine had to fight for the staff in an arena called the "Slither Pit." Skales won the battle, and became the new general of the Hypnobrai tribe.
Skales returned in The Snake King. When Skales and Pythor P. Chumsworth discovered the lost Serpentine city of Oroboris, Pythor promised Skales that he would let him become his second in command if he obeyed Pythor. That night, Pythor challenged the generals to a fight for their allegiance and Skales handed him a magic flute capable of controlling the Serpentine. While the others were in pain, Skales threw down his staff. In that episode, Pythor declared Skales as second-in-command of the unified Serpentine. He helped Pythor find the fang blades in Once Bitten, Twice Shy, The Royal Blacksmiths, and The Green Ninja. In the last episode, Day of the Great Devouer, he declared himself the new snake king after Pythor disappeared following The Great Devourer's defeat. He appears in the promo card Hypnobrai Rattle.
LEGO.com Bio
This is a description taken from LEGO.com. Please do not modify it.
Warrior and second in command of the Hypnobrai tribe. Skales masters the ancient art of Fang-kwon-do.
When he sees Slithraa fall under Lloyd’s control, Skales sees an opportunity to fulfill his own ambitions for control. Raiding villages for candy is beneath him, not to mention a complete waste of his Hypbnobrai powers.
Skales sets his own cunning plans in motion. He schemes to strike at the Ninja from within and patiently waits for events to unfold in his favor.
Skales uses hypnosis on Cole to keep the Ninja busy. After that he challenges Slithraa (The current General in that time) to a battle for leadership in something called the Slither Pit. Skales wins leadership and grows a tail, whileSlithraa loses his tail. Skales met Pythor when He wanted to awaken all the tribes. After that act, he went on a goal to lead all Serpentine. Pythor did have this happen, and placed Skales as his Second in Command. After Pythor P. Chumsworth dissapears in The Great Devourer's defeat, Skales (who was second in command of Pythor) declared himself the new Snake King.
