Skull Sorcerer (Crystal King Powers/Scythe Of Destruction)

Skull Sorcerer's History

Vangelis is the former king of Shintaro and the father of Vania. Years before the ninja arrived at Shintaro, Vangelis sent the Lowly to find one of the skeletal remains of Hazza D'ur before tricking and banishing them to Rock-Bottom. He then got the power to resurrect the Re-Awakened while taking control of the Dungeons of Shintaro and forcing the Geckles and Munce to mine Vengestone for him, which he traded on the black market with Harumi for. Following his rise to power in the Dungeons, he became known as the Skull Sorcerer. Eventually, Cole learned the power of the Spinjitzu Burst and destroyed the Skull of Hazza D'ur. Having been defeated, Vangelis tried to ask for forgiveness, but Cole refused, and Vania had Hailmar arrest him. He was ultimately succeeded by Vania.

More than a year later, Vangelis was freed and recruited by the Kabuki Mask to join the Council of the Crystal King along with more of the ninja's enemies to have his revenge. After he was given new powers by the Overlord, he joined in the latter's invasion of Ninjago, in which he also battled the ninja and the Resistance. However, he was eventually defeated by Cole and left stuck in a crevice created by the former's use of the Scythe of Quakes. Following the battle, he was apprehended and taken to Kryptarium Prison along with most of the Crystal King's Council.
