''Elements'' is a Ninjago fanfiction series, starting with the first book [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8315871/1/The-Makings-of-a-Storm The Makings of a Storm]].
The story is based off the first season of the show, with a more realistic (well, as realistic as you can go with a fanfic based around show staring Lego ninjas) and adult approach. The fanfics each have been praised for being able to keep the characters completely in character, while making the situations darker.
While the Serpentine are still the main villains, and stopping the release of the Great Devourer is still the main objective, the story features some new elements as well. There are powerful deities that chose the ninja as their advocate, a prophecy that introduces three female ninja and causes Nya to join their ranks, and a new threat – the Agamemnon.

* ActionGirl: The canon character Nya, as well as the three OCs Sasha, Ayane and Ebony, all fit this trope to a T.
* AdaptationalBadass: The author did a lot of research to make the ninja more badass than they are in the show. Unfortunately for the heroes, the bad guys are all a lot more dangerous as well.
* AffectionateNickname: Zane calls Ayane his angel (in Russian) while Kai enjoys calling Ebony Snow White (in Japanese). The gods also like to nickname their advocates as well.
* AndTheAdventureContinues: The ending to the last book fits this, considering it’s leading to the next series.
* AngelsDevilsAndSquid: With the ninja and their gods as the ‘Angel’ side, Lord Garmadon and the Agamemnon cover the ‘Devil’ part and the Serpentine, once they start experimenting, slide into the ‘Squid’.

* BadassBoast: Almost every time they're in a battle, someone comes up with something. Kai tries, but he usually fails.
* BadassBookworm: Zane and Ebony might be the most intelligent members of the team with a deep love of books, but that won't stop them from kicking Serpentine butt.
* BattleCouple: Nya and Jay, Cole and Sasha, Ayane and Zane and Ebony and Kai.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: You really don’t want to mess with Ayane or Jay.
* BewareTheSillyOnes: Jay can be absolutely ridiculous at some points, and the whole team of heroes can be told off by the enemies for behaving this way. Doesn’t stop them from taking down entire armies.

* CharacterDevelopment: Everyone gains some character development, but the prime example is Ebony.
* ComicallySerious: Zane and Ebony, occasionally.
* CostumePorn: The outfits the ninja and kunoichi wear look amazing.
* DarkerAndEdgier: Compared to the original show? By a lot.
* DeadpanSnarker: Ebony loves this trope, and the rest indulge in it occasionally.
* DeadPersonConversation: [[spoiler: Sensei Wu and Ebony have one in the last book.]]
* EarnYourHappyEnding: Depends on your definition of happy, but after [[spoiler: watching Ebony almost die in her trial, fighting hordes of Serpentine, watching their mentor die and having to destroy the Great Devourer – a giant snake that devour an entire city]] they definitely earned the break they get.
* EmotionsVsStoicism: Before her character development, everyone wanted Ebony to express her emotions a bit more.
* FanService: With what the main characters are wearing, it's constant fan service.
* FighterMageThief: Nya and Sasha are the two fighters, Ayane plays the mage with her healing abilities, and Ebony's abilities and attacks make her the thief.
* GlowingEyes: You know you're about to read about something awesome when a ninja's eyes start to glow.
* InsultOfEndearment: This is what Kai's nickname for Ebony becomes. Though really, it wasn't that much of an insulting nickname to begin with - it just brought up bad memories for Ebony.
* ItSucksToBeTheChosenOne: Lloyd has to deal with harsh training for a ten-year-old, and knows he will have to fight his father one day. And the rest of the chosen heroes don’t have it easy either.
* JerkassGods: Even though they are helping humanity, some of the stuff the put the ninja through really makes them come across as this. Especially in the lost chapters, where they revealed that they consider the ninja a form of entertainment.
* KillAllHumans: The Serpentine's main goal. It's not going so well for them at the moment.
