Background
When Ninjago was created by The First Spinjitzu Master, the overlord was created too. He and the master began a battle between good and evil. To help him combat the master, he created The Stone Army from indestructible material. The first spinjitzu master knew he could not win, so he created the Dark Island and banished the overlord and his army there.
Years later Lord Garmadon teamed up with the Serpentine in an attempt to destroy the ninja (Jay, Kai, Zane and Cole). After the ninja thwarted all his plans, Garmadon made one last ditch attempt by finding the dark island. The Serpentine betrayed him, and threw him in the ocean. Garmadon washed ashore on a small island days later. It was there that he met the overlord.
The Overlord and Garmadon teamed up to take over Ninjago. The Overlord instructed Garmadon to climb to the top of the mountain. There, Garmadon turned four cranks and The Dark Island came out of the ocean. The overlord then urged Garmadon take the helmet of shadows so he could control the stone army, in turn starting the celestial clock that counts down to the final battle between good and evil.
Next The Overlord instructed Garmadon to instruct the army to build a super weapon. The Ninja soon showed up on the island in an attempt to stop evil winning the final battle. The clock reached zero, and the super weapon was powered up. The Overlord gave the super weapon, Garmatron, to Garmadon so he could take over Ninjago.
Garmadon drove the Garmatron to the beach of the Dark Island and Fired a dark-matter missile onto Ninjago. This disturbed the balance between good and evil and the Overlord possessed Garmadon's body. Lloyd Garmadon attacked the overlord, and started the final battle. The overlord injured Lloyd's leg and traveled to Ninjago to claim his place as ruler, leaving the ninja on the Dark Island.
The Ninja returned to Ninjago, only to discover the Garmatron had turned into a fortress and the Overlord had transformed into a massive dragon. The ninja climbed Garmatron, but only Lloyd made it to the top. Lloyd used his golden energy and summoned The Golden Dragon and began the final battle. They were evenly matched, then the overlord gained the upper hand and swallowed the Golden Dragon. The Golden Dragon unleashed the maximum power of Lloyd's golden energy destroying the Overlord and the Darkness, supposedly for eternity.
The Overlord will apparently somehow return in a digital form of some sort, and will be in charge of the Nindroid Army. He is going to somehow try to get revenge on Lloyd. [1]
