Sensei's Signature.

A White Puffle following Sensei.

Sensei, (formerly known as ?????? when he was shoveling out snow before the Card Jitsu Game opened), is a penguin that first appeared when the Dojo got severely damaged by lightning, claiming to have returned from "a long journey". He used to be seen at the Dojo Exterior, but now he can be found inside the Dojo, sitting on the cushion next to the variable-colour pot. He has the color Gray, which is not currently available to players and appears to be a very old Penguin. He has a small white beard (Possibly he is related to Rockhopper), thick white eyebrows, and a conical straw hat. He was seen digging out the Dojo. He later revealed he would launch a card game for training Ninjas, known as "Card Jitsu". His name was revealed to be "Sensei" or the Japanese word for 'teacher', implying he is the ninja trainer. Apparently, he said that came over from far away to return, which means he has been to Club Penguin before. He presently is handing out Starter Packs in the Dojo to players training to become ninjas. He also awards penguins colored belts for their progress in the Card Jitsu. Also, once players get a black belt, Sensei can be challenged and if one wins, they become a true Ninja. Sensei will always pick the opposite card of what you pick, unless you are a black belt.

On July 3 to July 5, Ninjas were able to meet Sensei at the Ninja Hideout, and teach them a new trick (a cloud maker). The award for finding him is an autographed background. He was also seen during the Sensei's Scavenger Hunt, teaching ninjas about the upcoming event. He also visited the Fire Dojo and Ninja Hideout on Friday 20th November 2009.

Interview

In the Penguin Times Issue #163, the Club Penguin Times interviewed Sensei and he revealed things about Ninjas and himself.

A Possible Relative

Rockhopper could be a possible relative of Sensei, seeing as they both are the only penguins to sport beards and bushy eyebrows. They both seem to have a knack for exploringand and telling stories to penguins while visiting. This has not yet been proven.

A comparison someone drew of Rockhopper and Sensei.

Sensei's Favorite Games

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

Haikus

During his visits, the Sensei told penguins haikus.

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.

How to write a haiku

To write a haiku.

You just need to write three lines.

Of 5,7,5.

The "Orange" Sky

The sky is orange...

As orange as orange...

Or a tangerine.

The Black puffle

Like the black puffle.

Sometimes we don't like to smile.

But skateboard instead.

The Wisdom Haiku

To find true wisdom.

You must train hard and focus

And don't skip breakfast.

The Epic Awesome Haiku

This is a Haiku.

An epic awesome Haiku.

This Haiku is done.

Scavenger Hunt

Fires must be round.

Search all across the island.

Be very careful.

The Greatest Ninja

The greatest ninja,

Never gives up a battle

Or a cup of tea.

Interview with the Sensei

In an exclusive interview with the Sensei on September 16th 2009 about the orange sky and the machine in the Ninja Hideout, Sensei said,"We will use the fire to awaken the mountain". He also said, "always look to the mountains."

Sensei's knowledge of other Famous Penguins

Sensei has 3 explenations about his knowledge of Rockhopper. It is unknown why he knows & doesn't know him:

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.

The picture shows Sensei using a power card featuring Rockhopper.

Trivia

Sensei on the wall.

Sensei was maybe the first penguin to discover the Club Penguin Island.
Sensei is one of the three only known penguins who has a real beard and real bushy eyebrows. The other two are Rockhopper and Scrooge.
Sensei is the only penguin to have the color gray, which is not available to other penguins.
"Sensei" means teacher in Japanese.
Sensei actually built the Dojo.
Sensei started the Dig Out the Dojo program.
Sensei could possibly be related to Rockhopper, seeing as he has so much in common with him. But when asked, Rockhopper said "Sensei? Who's Sensei?". This probably means that they are not related or Club Penguin don't want to reveal it.
Sensei was first seen wearing a jacket when he was on the Dojo Exterior and when he was known as "??????", probably since it was so cold outside in the mountains of Club Penguin. He now resides in the Dojo, and is seen as not wearing a jacket.
Sensei actually ridicules Sanity Penguin every time someone asks him how to become a Ninja. He quotes his infamous myth of standing in the Dojo for thirty minutes straight to become a Ninja.
Sensei usually speaks in haikus, a type of Japanese poetry. The most common form of haikus have three lines, with five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, and five again in the third, and final, line.
Sensei only fully shows his eyes in Card Jitsu.
Sensei was never known to exist until November 3rd 2008.
The Sensei may be a Secret Agent, because he has access to G's inventions while playing Card Jitsu.
In the Club Penguin Times, Sensei has his own section called "Sensei's Fortune Cookie" sometimes and it tells you your "fortune" for the week. Sometimes it is not in the paper.

His name is sometimes misspelled as "Sensie" or "Sensi".
He can do the Cloud Wave Action without a ninja suit (to do the cloud Action you should have the Cloud Wave Bracers and the Ninja Costume).
He can also just disappear when he dances.
Like the Cadence Myth, If you leave the floor, Sensei will appear. This (again) was untrue.

He is a Level 5 Member.
He did not visit the Spanish servers for his first visit.

- If you take in a puffle he will say something about that specific type of puffle (e.g. he says for black puffles "Heh heh black puffles have great power. They are true masters of fire...")
