History

Background History

Sensei, master of the elements.

When Sensei was young, his closest friend was Tusk. Sensei and Tusk eventually were taught the ancient art of Card-Jitsu. As they trained, their friendship began to split apart. On a sunny day, Sensei challenged Tusk to a friendly battle of Snow to practice. When Tusk created an oversized snowball to throw at Sensei, Sensei deflected it and resulted in an avalanche. Sensei managed to escape from the avalanche, however, it was too late for Tusk. Sensei spent weeks attempting to recovering Tusk until he discovered Tusk's broken tusk. To his discovery Sensei vowed to master the elements and teach others to respect their power. Sensei built the Dojo then went on a "long journey", which (according to him) lasted until his return in November 2008. This journey lead him to learning about the elements of Fire, Water, and Snow.

2008

Sensei during Dig Out the Dojo.

Sensei was first seen on Club Penguin after the Storm, which heavily damaged the Dojo rooftop. It is thought that he started the Dig Out the Dojo project, because throughout the ordeal he was seen digging snow in the Dojo Courtyard (as ??????). When the Dojo was successfully dug out, Sensei revealed himself, as well as a new card game known as Card-Jitsu. After earning your Black Belt in Card-Jitsu, you must beat Sensei in a Card-Jitsu match to earn the Ninja Mask, thus becoming a ninja.

2009

Sensei's first role in 2009 was when he hid the eggs for the annual Easter Egg Hunt. From July 3rd until July 5th 2009, he revealed a new technique later revealed to be cloud waves. This was also his first appearance as a meetable mascot. Shortly prior to the Halloween Party 2009, the volcano near the Dojo started to become active. Sensei decided to create Amulets (like his) to advance ninja training further. He determined that it was time to start mastering the element of fire soon afterwards, which lead to "Sensei's Scavenger Hunt". After the scavenger hunt was complete and all of the fire items were collected, the Fire Dojo was built on the top of the volcano. Along with the new dojo, a new training game known as Card-Jitsu Fire was created by Sensei so that ninjas could master the element of Fire and become Fire Ninjas.

2010

When The Great Storm of 2010 arrived, Sensei knew that the time had come for ninjas to master the element of water. After the rainstorm cleared, he decided to start the "Water Hunt", which sent ninjas on a hunt for water items. After the hunt was completed and all items were collected, the Water Dojo was built in a nearby Waterfall. Once again he created a new training game, Card-Jitsu Water, to help ninjas master the element of water and become Water Ninjas.

2011

In November 2011 Sensei set up a Card-Jitsu Party, to recruit more penguins to be ninjas, fire ninjas and water ninjas.

2013

In 2013 Sensei waddled around during the Chinese New Year. Sensei waddled once more for the Hollywood Party to train actors how to stunt. In early May, Sensei vanished and left a note saying for ninjas to train.

Shadow Guy and Gamma Gal: Heroes Unite!

Main article: Shadow Guy and Gamma Gal: Heroes Unite!

Please note the content in this section is made to look non-canon even though it was created by Club Penguin. So, as a result none of this information may be completely accurate to canonical Club Penguin history.

Presumably before 2008, Sensei trained a girl named Amy who would later become the heroine known as Gamma Gal. This is set up as non-canon because it is a story written by a normal penguin in 2010, and their story has many time flaws and other errors; which you can view here.

Sensei's Games

These are games that sensei has created to play with other penguins when he's waddling around Club Penguin.

• Chat-Jitsu: Sensei would name an element, and players have to answer with what beats it, as fast as they can (Sensei often tricks people, by naming random things like marshmallows).
• Hit-a-Gong!: Sensei would name a creature, and players have to hit the gong with the named creature on it (Sensei often tricks people by naming creatures like seahorses).
• I spy...: Sensei would name the color of something and players have to name it.
• Ninja run!: Sensei gets players to run left & right in the Ninja Hideout.
• The Fire Game: While in the Fire Dojo, Sensei would shout 'FIRE!' and players must run to something with fire on it.

Haikus

During his visits, Sensei sometimes talks to penguins in haiku.

Sensei's Card-Jitsu Card Haiku

The wisest penguin,

Knows that every journey begins,

With a single step.

The Cookie Haiku

Like the great cookie,

We must have honor and strength,

And chocolate chips.

As orange as orange,

Or a tangerine.

Sometimes we don't like to smile,

But skateboard instead.

You must train hard and focus,

And don't skip breakfast.

An epic awesome haiku,

Search all across the island,

Be very careful.

The Greatest Ninja

The greatest Ninja,

Never gives up a battle,

Or a cup of tea.

Wisdom

It is quite easy,

To sound like you have wisdom,

When talking haiku.

Sensei's Knowledge of other Famous Penguins

Sensei has three explanations about his knowledge of Rockhopper. It is unknown why he knows and doesn't know him. However it may be because Sensei is an old penguin who may be forgetful:

• Rockhopper: Rockhopper, you say? He is a most wonderous pirate, as well as wise.
• Rockhopper: Rockhopper? I do not know this lad. Does he know me?
• Rockhopper: Rockhopper. Silly penguin. Much to learn in the ways of ninja.
• Gary: Gary? I do not know much about him... I hear he is a famous scientist.
• Aunt Arctic: Aunt Arctic writes in the paper, doesn't she. Listen to her words.

Never Wake a Sleeping Sensei

Main article: Never Wake a Sleeping Sensei.

Never Wake a Sleeping Sensei is the first official Club Penguin Animated Short. Sensei pretends to be sleepwalking to get four ninjas to have teamwork, rather than fight. This is also the first time we hear Sensei's voice.
