Pyro Vipers

The Pyro Vipers are an ancient tribe of Serpentine who live in the Desert of Doom, led by Aspheera. They were once ruled over by Mambo the Fifth. They were entombed in the Ancient Pyramid, now the only remnant left of their culture. When the Ninja explored the pyramid and unwittingly released Aspheera, the pyramid's destruction freed the rest of the Pyro Vipers. They regained the power of fire from the lava which released them from their sarcophagi. Their goals are to conquer Ninjago and exact revenge upon the boy who imprisoned them long ago. They serve as the villainous faction of the first part of Season 11, The Fire Chapter.

Past
The Pyro Vipers were originally a tribe of Serpentine that built pyramids and were ruled by King Mambo the Fifth. They had a truce saying that humans could not enter the valley that would become the Desert of Doom. One day Wu and Garmadon entered the valley and were captured by Pyro Vipers. But then they were released by a serpintine witch in service of the king who befriended Wu. Aspheera the serpintine witch was taught spinjitzu by Wu.

Afterwards, Aspheera overthrew Mambo the Fifth and met her servant Char. However, Wu used the Scroll of Forbidden Spinjitzu. To stop her and put Mambo back into power who sentenced aspheera to magical entombment.

Eventually the Pyro Vipers would die off and the Ancient Pyramid would be the last remnant of their culture.

The Pyro Vipers and Aspheera had tried to conquer Ninjago and gain th Scroll of Forbidden Spinjitzu. Aspheera befriended Wu and Garmadon, but was betrayed and entombed in the Ancient Pyramid.
