Overview
- For the helmet that controlled the Stone Army, see Helmet of Shadows. For another helmet worn by Garmadon, see Garmadon's helmet.
The Underworld helmet[1] was Garmadon's first helmet and a symbol of authority in the Underworld. It previously belonged to Samukai. When Garmadon put on the Helmet of Shadows, he left this helmet behind next to the Celestial Clock.
History
History[]
Once fallen warriors began to populate the Underworld as undead Skulkin, the helmet was put to use as a symbol of authority amongst the skeletons, with Samukai eventually arriving and seizing it for his own.
An Underworldly Takeover (flashback)[]
With Garmadon banished to the Underworld, the disgraced hero sought a means of escaping the realm by taking control of the Skulkin, and after defeating a vengeful Samukai in combat, donned the helmet for his own.
With the symbol of Skulkin authority now his, Garmadon would proceed to command the skeletal beings, wearing it even after betraying and forsaking the fallen warriors.
The Day Ninjago Stood Still[]
Offered the Helmet of Shadows by The Overlord in order to begin the countdown of the Celestial Clock, Garmadon accepted the being's offer, discarding the helmet.
