It sort connects several of the various theories which have already been mentioned. As most of you have already said, Zane's ice element must come from his power source, which, as you remember, Pixal wasn't able to identify back in the Techno season. Now consider this. Zane is a robot, and therefore he has no soul. Wrong! Ninjago canon proves that Zane has some sort of a soul in the latest season. When Nadakhan uses the sword of souls to steal it, he succeeds. So, the question is, how? Where did he get this seemingly ulimited power source; and where did he get a soul? The two entities must be linked together, which is proven when Nadakhan uses the ice element against the other ninja. What if the only reason Doctor Julien built Zanes (Echo Zane included) were for his own personal gain? And if it was, are there more? Now that I have you intrigued, let me explain.

Dr. Julien was mortal, and therefore he was doomed to die from the start. There was nothing he could do to prevent this from happening, unless, maybe, he was able to work his mind around it. This brings us to the point. Zanes are merely bits and chunks of Dr. Julien's original soul, much like how horcruxes are used by Voldemort in Harry Potter. How was he able to cut and extract his soul? I have no idea, but, being the genius he is, he probably could've managed some technological feat. So, Dr. Julien is theoretically alive as long as there is a Zane around harnessing a fragment of his soul. Doesn't it seem quite selfish for such an amiable old man? Yes, I agree, but Dr. Julien hasn't been around long enough in Ninjago for us to know is full personality. If this theory proves correct, Dr. Julien would technically be still alive, and it would explain in full detail Zane's origns concerning his ice power, human-like personality, and unlimited power source.

So, what do you guys think? Seems like the best Ninjago theory ever, man! How did you ever figure this out Meh. Zane has a soul through emotions. His emotions created it.
