Deepstone is a deep black aquatic material that is mined from the bottom of the Endless Sea in the world of Ninjago. The molecules that Deepstone consists of are constantly moving, yet still staying solid; making it an effective material for utilization in both combat and defense against ghosts, since it has the same effect on ghosts as Vengestone does on the Elemental Masters.
History[]
Background[]
When Deepstone came into existence, one of its uses was to forge Aeroblades, a shuriken-like weapon that is highly effective against ghosts. The material was also forged into armor.
Possession[]
Sometime after the Second Serpentine War, Wu purchased the Deepstone armor for the ninja to wear. The four original ninja also received the Aeroblades after being attacked by Morro and the other Ghost Warriors at Ronin's pawn shop, in which they used to destroy the ghosts and would continue to wield these weapons throughout the adventure.
After the ninja learnt Airjitzu from Master Yang at the haunted Temple of Airjitzu, the ninja received added shoulder pads to their Deepstone armor (save for Cole, who was turned into a ghost prior to that) and made the suits feel heavy to perform Airjitzu in. As the four original ninja scaled the Wailing Alps, the Soul Archer hits Kai with a Skreemer arrow, but the Deepstone armor was enough to prevent him from turning into a ghost.
After Wu sold Steep Wisdom to Cyrus Borg, he used to time and money earned to build the Ghost Cycle out of Deepstone and upgraded the Ice Mech with Deepstone particle shooters, and the ninja used these vehicles during the ghost invasion.
Skybound[]
Nya continued to wear her Deepstone armor.
Ronin continued to use the Aeroblade to hunt the Ninja at Mega Monster Amusement Park and he used them, along with Echo Zane to help the Ninja Replacements climb up a cliff.

Trivia[]
- Black katanas, referred to as Deepstone Katanas, were used by the ninja and Ronin in the Possession sets, thought never appearing in the series.
- Deepstone is fairly similar to Vengestone, as they are both able to prevent ghosts from phasing through them.
- In the German dub, Vengestone and Deepstone are no longer distinguished since Season 6: Skybound and both are simply reffered to as Tiefenstein ("Deepstone").
- In "All of Nothing", Vengestone is still translated correctly as Rachestein.
