* TurnedAgaisntTheirMasters: The entire Stone Army (save for Kozu) are linked with the Helmet of Shadows, giving them command over the army, if the helmet falls into the hands of someone else, the army will obey their orders rather than of their original master. Garmadon and Kozu learned that the hard way.


Added DiffLines:

* UseYourHead: How he was defeated the second time in Day of the Departed, by his own army no less (Thanks to Dareth using the Helmet of Shadows).

Added DiffLines:

* TookALevelInJerkass: The already evil Anacondrai has done a lot of bad deeds. Like unleashing the Great Devourer, kidnapping Lloyd twice, and betraying Lloyd in "Day of the Departed" even though the two ended up having a truce in Season 4. But by Season 15, he's an even bigger jerk where he is more prone to mocking the ninja for such things like being inferior towards the New Ninja and taunts Nya for losing her powers.


Added DiffLines:

* TookALevelInJerkass: The Mechanic was already a big dick since his big debut. From trying to dismantle Zane and causing all sorts of crimes in Ninjago. But by Season 15, he has reached his worst. As he is not only more prone to mocking the ninja. A great example being how he mocks them for being out of shape. But the biggest example of how much of a jerk he's gotten is how he teases Nya for not being a real ninja because of her power loss. Not even namedropping her and only calling her, "girl", as if he sees her as nothing significant.

* TookALevelInJerkass: While Aspheera was already a big asshole from her first appearance, from betraying Wu, attempting to turn the serpentine against humanity, stealing Kai's fire powers, and mocking Wu for Zane's disappearance, she got even worse as of Season 15. In "A Painful Promise", she resorts to cheating against Wu in various games for fun, betrays the ninja when they got her staff back and released her, and in "The Fall of the Monastery" she even tries to straight up kill Wu, whereas in Season 11, she just wanted to make him suffer big time.


Added DiffLines:

* TookALevelInJerkass: The Skull Sorcerer was already a big jerk in Season 13, enslaving Munce and Geckles, making them turn on each other, lying to the ninja [[spoiler: and his daughter, Vania,]] for his own personal gain, and trapping the Lowly once they did what they asked him to do. But by Season 15, he's become more unhinged and more rude and insulting towards his teammates, in contrast to how he would even call his own minions his ''children''. Furhtermore, he was even going to disobey the Crystal King just to kill Cole, even though the Crystal King asked him bring the Earth ninja to him alive.


Added DiffLines:

* TookALevelInJerkass: As of Season 15, Aspheera, Vangelis, Pythor, the Mechanic, and [[spoiler:Harumi]] have become just as, if not, even more psychotic than the Crystal King/[[spoiler:Overlord]] is. See their character folders above.

** During the final battle against the Overlord, Garmadon furiously voiced his disappointment towards Harumi for siding up with the Overlord and his plot to corrupt the powers of creation, to which Harumi angrily retorted that he and Lloyd aren't strong to stand against the Overlord. [[spoiler:However, she realized her awful mistake of antagonizing Garmadon and Lloyd when the Overlord revealed that he was the one who created the Great Devourer that turned Garmadon evil and killed Harumi's parents in the first place.]]
