I don't think he was born with the power, or the ability to live a longer life, but rather given it, by a higher being. This supreme creature would have been the Ultimate Power and also would have created the 16 realms and the Universe many billions of years before. The role destiny would have played in these circumstances would be the decision that the supreme creature (I'd like to call it the Time Dragon, the element time being every element in existence combined) chose to give a fraction of his power to the First Spinjitzu Master, altering his genes to adapt to his once powerless stage to the incredible power he once possesed. Once that happened it was his choice, or destiny's, to give some of his power to his followers, creating the first elemental masters, and to migrate to the world he created, Ninjago.

Anyway, that's what I think. The most we can do here is speculate, since so little information is actually given in the storyline of Ninjago. That's good. I like the entire theory. It sticks to the main idea (that for some reason, people have a hard time dealing with) that the First Spinjitzu Master didn't have to have parents or come from anywhere in particular. I'll be honest though, not a big fan of "Time Dragon". Dragons are overused, and Time is an element I think should replace Speed as a secondary elemnent. Is it just me, or do "Ultimate Power" and "Embodiment of Good/Evil" keep changing? Like, (for the Ultimate Power and Good) the First Spinjitzu Master, the Golden Weapons, Lloyd, "Time Dragon", etc. and (for Evil) the Great Devourer, the Overlord, the Preeminent, etc. Maybe it's just me, but I'd like to think that if the creators of Ninjago (the show) are going to make an Ultimate Evil (like the Overlord), the Preeminent and others shouldn't seem to be more of a threat or cause more damage.

Yes, you are absolutely correct. The "Ultimate Evil" does change in Ninjago, mostly swaying between the Overlord and the Preeminent. The cause of this problem lies clearly with the creators of Ninjago, who, in some cases, add on random plots without checking if it condradicts the storyline, hence the inconsistencies. Because of this, I like to think of all the "Ultimate Evils" in Ninjago as just "Evils", if you know what I mean.

Also, now that I think about it, dragons are overused in Ninjago, but I can't really think of anything else that would fit the overall theme. I would actually be glad to change it, since it will be part of my timeline. Do you have any suggestions?
