Source Dragon of Focus

“I also regret getting involved with mortals. It has brought us nothing but pain and danger. We should remove our presence entirely.”
— The Source Dragon of Focus, "Casket of Bones"

The Source Dragon of Focus is one of the seven Source Dragons. Hence her name, she represents Focus, serving as the foundation for all the Elemental Powers related to her source.

History

History[]

Background[]

The Source Dragon of Focus was among the seven Source Dragons that helped maintain balance across the realms. Each Source Dragon represented a unique source,[7] with the Source Dragon of Focus specifically embodying focus.

The First Spinjitzu Master came to the Source Dragons and implored them to contribute their dragon energy. This request was made in order to create the Dragon Cores, which were meant to prevent the Coalescence,[8] an imminent event where all the realms would merge into a single world, a consequence brought about by the Source Dragon energy.[9] As the Source Dragons debated the merits of supporting the First Spinjitzu Master with a promise, a division emerged among them. The Source Dragon of Focus opposed the idea, aligning with the Source Dragons of Strength and Life. Ultimately, the decisive vote came from the Source Dragon of Balance, which led the council to commit to their promise and grant boons to the First Spinjitzu Master.[10]

When Thunderfang, the dragon of Chaos, attacked the City of Temples after being rejected from the council of the Source Dragons, the council decided to send the mortal avatar of the Source Dragon of Focus, the Arc Dragon of Focus to stop the Chaos dragon. After having completed its task, the avatar of the Focus Source Dragon was split into two halves, which were put into a deep slumber.

When the Merge occurred, the Source Dragon of Focus' influence over the Merged Realms allowed her to create a new Elemental Power, Technology.[11]

Dragons Rising, Season 2[]

Beyond the Phantasm Cave[]

When Lloyd sought help from the Source Dragons to find a way how to counter Shatterspin, they all summoned him to their place, where they discussed what to do, and agreed to help him after the Source Dragon of Energy begged them to aid him, like he aided him back in Imperium. The Source Dragon of Focus seemed to be fine with their decision, showing no signs of objection when the Source Dragon of Motion gave Lloyd a vision.

Dragons Rising, Season 3[]

Casket of Bones[]

Upon discovering Thunderfang's intention to ascend as a Source Dragon, the Source Dragons convened to deliberate on whether they should take action. The discussion became contentious, with the Source Dragons divided on the issue of aiding mortals. The Source Dragon of Motion argued that summoning the Arc Dragon of Focus was essential to finally vanquish Thunderfang. However, the Source Dragon of Focus firmly rejected this idea, stating her unwillingness to assist this time around. The Source Dragon of Energy interjected, suggesting that the Source Dragon of Focus shall support if there is enough backing, just as she had done previously. Yet, the Source Dragon of Focus regretted over past involvement with mortals, emphasizing that it had only led to suffering and peril for the council. She proposed that they should consider withdrawing their influence entirely. The Source Dragon of Motion countered, asserting that it was too late for such a retreat, as Thunderfang possessed more power than they realized and could potentially infiltrate their council, wreaking havoc. Despite this warning, the Source Dragon of Focus remained unconvinced. The Source Dragon of Motion reminded her that mortals could summon the Arc Dragon of Focus. At that moment, the Source Dragon of Strength suddenly realized that Lloyd had been eavesdropping on their conversation, causing him to be suddenly forced out of the council meeting.

Chaos Reigns[]

Focus learned that the ninja awoken her personal avatar, the Arc Dragon of Focus to defeat Thunderfang. Angered by this action, Focus, along with Strength and Life withdrew from the Council. Flow, despite agreeing on the necessity on summoning the Arc Dragon of Focus, couldn't help but condemning the ninja’s actions, declaring it unthinkable that mortals would dare command Focus's personal avatar without the council's consent. But Motion said while improper, it had spared the council from Thunderfang's wrath. Energy condemned the price of that decision, as without Focus, Life, and Strength, the balance of Elemental Powers will unravel and all Elemental Masters will go into chaos, betraying the vow they once made to the First Spinjitzu Master. Her departure from the Council was sensed by the mortal avatar of the Source Dragon of Life, the Arc Dragon of Life.

Personality

Personality[]

The Source Dragon of Focus is a cautious and principled being, shaped by a deep sense of regret over her past involvement with mortals. Once willing to intervene, she advocated for complete withdrawal from mortal affairs, believing that such actions have only brought suffering and peril to the council of Source Dragons. She also seems to be stubborn and slightly nihilistic, as despite pressure from her peers—particularly the assertive Source Dragons of Motion and Energy—she remains firm in her stance, unwilling to be swayed by urgency or sentiment, despite knowing Thunderfang will kill all of them if they did not act. After the Ninja released her personal avatar against the council's will, Focus chose to leave the Council of Sources alongside Life and Strength despite knowing that could throw reality into chaos.
