Lloyd Garmadon

Lloyd Garmadon, also known as The Green Ninja, is a fictional character and major protagonist of the Lego Ninjago toy-line. He has appeared in various media such as the television series Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu and will even appear as a cameo in The LEGO Movie.
Appearance
Lloyd's first variant consisted of a black hood, a shirt with a green "5" on the upper right corner (possibly a reference to him being the fifth ninja) with a painted rib cage to resemble Lord Garmadon, and short black legs.
Lloyd's Green Ninja variant, also referred to as "Lloyd ZX", includes a green ninja hood with a dark silver "crown" on the forehead, a dark silver katana holder on his back, and a matching outfit to go with his hood. At first, fans were speculated at Lloyd's legs which were now longer than his previous variant. This speculation was resolved in the episode "Child's Play" when he is exposed to an aging potion.
Lloyd was given an exclusive minifigure that was only available as a promotion with copies of "LEGO Ninjago: Character Encyclopedia". This variant, the kimono, similar to his ZX variant, had a gold crown on the hood and a gold katana holder instead of dark silver. The rest of this outfit consisted of black leggings and a black torso with green sleeves.
Lloyd's last known variant appeared in the third wave sets of Ninjago. This Variant, the "Ultimate Spinjitzu Master", features him wearing a suit painted entirely gold, along with his whole headpiece painted gold. However, Lloyd's head is shown to be a regular yellow for minifigures as the variant was debuted in the season 2 finale "Rise of the Spinjitzu Master". Lloyd reaches his full potential and defeats the Overlord allowing him to become the Ultimate Spinjitzu Master.
Personality
When Lloyd first appeared in the series, he was immature and dreamed of being a villain like his father. After being raised by Sensei Wu, he is more willing to be good but still lacks maturity. After aging in the shows second season, he begins acting more mature.
In Media
Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu
As well as appearing in the second and third waves of the Ninjago toy-line, Lloyd also appeared in the toy-lines television series. He debuted in the first seasons first episode "Rise of the Snakes", In which he is introduced as an immature young boy and son of Lord Garmadon, the series main antagonist. At first, Lloyd wanted to be evil like his father and take over Ninjago by releasing the Serpentine tribes, a fictional race of snake people, from the tombs they were imprisoned in. In various episodes, he unleashes the Hypnobrai tribe, Fangpyre tribe, and Pythor, the last of the Anocondrai tribe. His plan backfires when the tribes and Pythor betray him, leaving his uncle, Sensei Wu, and his ninja students to take care of him. Lloyd has appreciation for his uncle, but often plays pranks on the ninjas. It was shown in the episode "Can of Worms" that he regrets unleashing the serpentine after Pythor unleashes the last two tribes, the Constrictai and Venomari. In the episode "The Snake King", Lloyd is kidnapped by Pythor who has now made himself "king" over all Serpentine tribes. He was unable to be rescued by the ninjas until the episode "The Green Ninja", when Garmadon joined forces with the ninja to rescue his son. It is also revealed in that episode that he is destined to be "The Green Ninja", and must one day defeat a dark lord believed to be Garmadon. Garmadon parts with the ninjas in the episode "All of Nothing" but later returns to defeat "The Great Devourer", a giant snake unleashed by Pythor.
In the first episode of season two of the series, "Darkness Shall Rise", Skales, Pythor's former second-in-comand before he was eaten by the Great Devourer, attempts to kidnap Lloyd and use him as a threat so Garmadon will let him lead the Serpentine he is currently ruling over. However, Skales is defeated by Sensei Wu and Nya and is sent to Ninjago City's prison. In "Pirates vs. Ninja", Lloyd learns Spinjitzu for the first time while fighting Captain Soto. In "Child's Play", Lloyd is exposed to an aging potion and his body ages to that similar to the other ninjas. Ever since his aging, Lloyd has matured and has gotten better in fighting. In "The Stone Army", It is revealed that Lloyd has a mother, named Misako, who left him as a child. Lloyd forgives Misako after she explains that she left him only to find a way to prevent the fight between him and his father. In "The Last Hope", Lloyd is given a chance to defeat his father, but hesitates. He also injures his leg. In "Return of the Overlord", It is revealed that the "dark lord" is actually an ancient entity known as the Overlord, who has transformed into a monstrous dragon. Lloyd defeats the Overlord, cleansing his father of his evil in the process. Lloyd is seen walking with a now good Garmadon and Misako in this season finale.
