| ~ Zane (as the Ice Emperor) and Vex. |
Zane, currently known as the Ice Emperor, is one of the main protagonists of Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu, and serving as the focus character in Season 3. However, he serves as the tritagonist turned-central antagonist of the eleventh season, due to General Vex erasing his memories and lying to him about him being the Ice Emperor.
History
Becoming The Ice Emperor
As a result of taking a blow for his master, Zane was banished to the Never-realm by Aspheera.
Zane fell through a portal and awoke in the new realm and called out for help but received no reply. While wandering the realm, he attempted to move the mech but nothing occurred and he begrudgingly used the Scroll, allowing him to succeed.
As he moved the mech, a Giant Eagle attempted to attack him but he used the scroll to freeze its wing and scared it off. He created an ice cave for shelter, where he tried to repair the Titan Mech but realized he needed to perform a full diagnostic to do so. Zane recorded a message for anyone who happened to find the area in the future and told them of his identity, as well as his loved ones.
Zane proceed to reboot the mech, by plugging himself to the mainframe. As he did so, it turns out that Zane was stalked by General Vex who had been watching him since he arrived. Vex attempted to steal the Scroll of Forbidden Spinjitzu and use it to destroy Zane but was unable, as he lacked power. However, Vex overheard the consequences of unplugging the mainframe and removed it from Zane, erasing his memory in the process.
When Zane awoke, he questioned who Vex was and the latter manipulated Zane into thinking he was his advisor and that Zane is the Ice Emperor who was overthrown. Vex handed Zane the Scroll of Forbidden Spinjitzu and persuaded him to take what is "rightfully his".
Believing Vex, Zane journeyed to the Castle of Grimfax and overpowered the soldiers before corrupting them into Blizzard Samurai. Vex told Grimfax that Zane is the Ice Emperor and gave him the option of submitting or perishing. The former ruler surrendered allowing Zane to take his throne.
Zane took up a new armor and helmet, as he took his place on the throne. Now christened the Ice Emperor, Zane sent an eternal winter across the land while Vex took his place as his advisor.
Taking over the never-realm
In the decades that followed, the Ice Emperor began his rule of terror by wiping out the Yeti's, leaving only one survivor.
At some point, he met and tamed the Ice Dragon Boreal, which became his loyal pet.
After the Formlings (Vex's people) refused to submit, Zane sent Boreal to freeze the village, leaving Akita and her brother (who was taken prisoner) as the only survivors.
Season 11
Sending the Blizzard Samurai
Ice Emperor is on his throne, as Vex appears to tell him of "strangers" (the ninja) are coming to them. Vex tells him they might be there for the prisoners or to defy his will. Hearing this, Ice Emperor states they must be punished but Vex advises him to destroy them instead and he agrees. He asks for his Ice Samurai to be deployed to handle the strangers and those who aid them, at Vex's nudging.

Unleashing Boreal and kidnapping Lloyd
Notes
- Zane previously had premonition nightmares of the Ice Emperor and Boreal.
- As he orchestrated the genocide of the Yetis, he is the second ninja to be responsible for many deaths.
- The first ninja was Nya who destroyed the Preeminent, which was the Cursed Realm and destroyed all its inhabitants. By extension, Nya also destroyed the Cursed Realm's sister Realm Djinjago.
- As time moves faster in the Never-Realm, Zane states he has been there for decades and is therefore older than the older ninja.
- He is the second ninja to be villain after Lloyd Garmadon.
