Master Wu is a character from the LEGO Ninjago Series franchise. He is the Master of Creation and the Sensei of the Ninja Team, His First Pupil was Morro. He is also the Uncle of Lloyd Garmadon.
Personality[]
As a young boy, Wu was a bit irresponsible and impulsive. Because of this, Wu nearly started a war between the Serpentine and the humans. However, after Wu and Garmadon stole the Scrolls of Forbidden Spinjitzu, Wu became a more benevolent, satisfied, and generous person, being very reserved and noble and valiantly fighting for good.
This as a result, led to Wu refusing to retrieve the katana he lost while he was sparring with Garmadon. Instructed by his brother to never put off until tomorrow what can be done today, he would watch, haunted, as the Great Devourer's venom began to corrupt Garmadon as a result of his procrastination, and would likewise remember his brother's words prior to his corruption for the rest of his life.
Having a kind heart, he brought in a homeless orphan named Morro and took care of him, discovering his fatherly instincts after taking in the Master of Wind to be his pupil. However, he also had little patience for wrongful behavior, readily disapproving Morro's reckless actions, unanimously agreeing with his brother to banish the Anacondrai generals to the Cursed Realm, and being highly protective of his father's name.
Years later, having officially become a master, Wu would develop an incredibly eccentric and mysterious personality, often instructing others with cryptic hints and would often avoid being straightforward, confusing everyone with his strange methods and ways. Wise because of his years of experience, Wu had an enormous amount of forethought and skilled intelligence, triumphing over several enemies as a result. Incredibly graceful, even when losing, Wu would be willing to sacrifice his life under any circumstances to protect others.
Despite this, Master Wu also had a more silly and playful side. He enjoyed less reserved actions such as food fights, dancing, and riding on Ferris wheels. However, Wu also had a past haunted by his mistakes, echoing his own brother's wisdom, and secretly reprimanding himself for the corruption of Garmadon and Morro, and for not telling Misako about how he felt about her.
When turned into a baby, Wu often cried, but laughed at something funny to him, and he enjoyed being held by Cole. When he grew into the size of a toddler, Wu starts being helpful, even using the motto that "Ninja never quit," but he is still portrayed at having laughter. He later did a drawing, albeit badly, of Mystake's tea shop sign as advice for the ninja.
Upon becoming a child again, Wu displayed both his previous attitude as a child and as an adult. After turning into a teenager, Wu regained some of his maturity and some of his memories help him in using his wisdom. However, he gained an impulsive side as he chose to lie to Faith about the Dragon Armor since he needed a way to keep hope in his friends. When confronted by Faith, he had to admit his lie but he was happy to see it actually contained truth as they discovered a map for the armor. He was also willing to steal Dragon Hunters' clothes if it could help save the ninja. He was giving up quickly in activities he couldn't do, like when he couldn't use a Chain Rifle. He also didn't understand how the ninja could joke in threatening situations, although after Jay's explanation, he began joking with them.
After aging further and growing a mustache and a goatee, Wu regained all his memories and his full wisdom returned. Wu was ready to defend his friends as he did in the past and did so by standing defiant towards Baron. Wu also wanted to protect them and did so by agreeing to lead Baron to the Dragon Armor while assuring his protesting pupils. After Baron failed to control the Firstbourne, Wu showed a darker side of himself to Iron Baron, revealing that while his students helped teach him responsibility, Baron taught him the power of lies. Wu revealed that the Dragon Armor could not, in fact, control the Firstbourne, and he watched, near emotionless, as the Firstbourne encased Iron Baron in molten lava.
After returning to his actual age as an old man, Wu appears to have regained his normal personality. Wu also doesn't like when the ninja are lazy and is willing to set insidious traps to teach them a lesson. He can also be quick yo anger if his student want help from him before thinking for themselves. After Zane's disappearance in the Never-Realm, he was very sad and blamed himself.
After the attack by Unagami, he began to feel his old age, and although he admitted that he enjoyed many adventures, he realized that the ninja had become independent and no longer needed him. Later, after talking to Vania, however, he realized his mistake and realized that the ninja still needed him. His desire for adventure returned and he was determined not to return home but to go wherever the wind takes them.
When he thinks, he strokes his long beard. He has a similar habit even though he suspects something bad, but then he only runs his hand over his mustache.
