This mystical, high-adventure series is based on the ancient mythical Xiaolin martial arts inspired by Chinese monks thousands of years ago.
Omi, a young, gifted monk-in-training from the Xiaolin Temple, must show his fellow trainees - J-pop hipster girl Kimiko, flashy, street smart Brazilian Raimundo and Texas Kung Fu cowboy Clay - around the world to find and protect sacred ancient artifacts. These sacred objects with supernatural powers called the Shen-Gong-Wu are keys to controlling the powers of good and evil. They can only be captured after an extreme, gravity-defying, martial art-inspired "double dare" showdown occurs.
Challenging the trainees is evil boy genius Jack Spicer and his custom-built robot army, along with the ancient witch Wuya - all competing for these objects in extreme Xiaolin Showdowns. It is a tight race - for the one who gathers all of the Shen-Gong-Wu will become an unstoppable force for good... or evil!
Let's go Xiaolin Showdown!
An excitable, young monk-in-training who is the unofficial leader of the Xiaolin team. Omi possesses the element of water. He sets his heart to finding the missing pieces of the Shen-Gong-Wu, and will have a showdown with any enemy that gets in his way of finding them. Besides teaching his new students about the Shen-Gong-Wu pieces and martial arts, Omi will always learn something from them also.
She is a rich and sometimes snotty girl. Born and raised in Tokyo, she has a very wealthy background, and sometimes likes to show off her valuables. However, she proves herself worthy when it comes to battle. She tells the others not to pick on Omi, and immediately befriends the young monk, sticking to his side at all times. Kimiko possesses the element of fire.
He doesn't seem all that nice when we first meet him because he picks on Omi and has a little bit of a bully in him. He is more worried about what his new room looks like then finding the missing Shen-Gong-Wu objects. Although, this Brazilian circus star is helpful in battle as he shows what he can do to kick evil's butt. Raimundo possesses the element of wind.
A cowboy from Texas that knows a thing or two about Kung Fu. He is more loyal to Omi than the rest of the team. He uses his cowboy-like skills to fight in battle, and teaches Omi, little by little, how to properly beat the bad guys. He has a steady approach when fighting in battle. He is never in a hurry, unless he's worried about finding the next Shen-Gong-Wu. Clay possesses the element of earth.
He is Omi's original teacher. He believes Omi will turn out to be a great monk, and, therefore, gave Omi a band of new students to teach and help find the ancient Shen-Gong-Wu objects before evil gets a chance to. He is also a mentor to the students, and often guides them in their travels. When Omi and the others are having trouble in their adventures, Master Fung always provides good lessons to help them in the right direction.
He may look four feet long, but Dojo is really a fourty foot long fire-breathing dragon! He is the Xiaolin Temple guardian. He has been guarding the ancient Shen-Gong-Wu scroll for thousands of years. Dojo is also used for transportation to take Omi and his friends places they need to go to locate the Shen-Gong-Wu pieces. He feels like he's been demoted from temple guardian to baby-sitter, though. He is Omi's guardian and is somewhat of a trainer to him during showdowns. He also sniffs out the Shen-Gong-Wu to their exact location even when they're many miles away.
The wannabe bad guy that dresses in goth clothing and is bent on world domination. He has a bad attitude, and will always chew out the people who don't agree with what he thinks is best. He stumbles upon the spirit of Wuya, the evil witch, who tells him that he needs to find the missing Shen-Gong-Wu objects before Omi and the rest do. If Jack can't take on Omi by himself, then he relies on his evil Jack-bot minions to help stop them. He is set on finding the missing objects so he can carry out his plans on ruling the world!
Once an evil witch, but was defeated in the first Xiaolin Showdown, and was cast into a wooden puzzlebox for a thousand years. Now, she's an evil spirit that can't take physical form, and must enlist Jack to help find the missing objects. Wuya tells Jack what to do when he comes face-to-face with Omi and his team, but most of the time Jack just sends the robots to do his dirty work. Wuya needs all the Shen-Gong-Wu objects to return to physical form.
