Cole Brookstone

Cole used to be more uptight and strategic, disapproving of Kai's impulsiveness. Before meeting Wu, Cole lacked direction and purpose. At this time, his mother just passed away and he was struggling to take care of the family himself and understand his father's way to cope with their loss. As a ninja, Cole thoroughly enjoys helping others in need and feels accomplished with a job well done. Cole insisted he was without fear, though Zane quickly pointed out his fear of dragons. When the ninja had to recruit their dragons, Cole awkwardly stood on top of the Earth Dragon instead of properly mounting him. Despite his initial hesitance, he grew to accept Rocky, even learning to care for him more than the other ninja cared for theirs. He was also worried to face his dad and dance. Cole may act out of instinct or impulse without thinking first. He is shown to have fatherly tendencies. He also has addictive tendencies, mainly his love for cake. He has also shown these same tendencies towards noodles from Chen's Noodle House. In general, Cole seems to have a great love for food and eating, despite being shown to be a terrible cook. Sometimes he eats without thinking though, like when Dareth hid weapons in a cake for them, or eating the fortune cookie without taking out the fortune. He and Zane are the most serious and focused of the ninja. However, that does not stop him from allowing his one-track mind or competitiveness to get the best of him. Once he really sets his mind to something, he will remain interested in it until it is fulfilled. Cole is one to put himself at risk before his friends, as shown when he gave Jay the Jadeblade. However, when trying to comfort his allies, he seems to have difficulty finding the correct words to do so, only able to accomplish the task with the example of his teammates. He always encourages his friends to do the right things but tries not to force them.
