Before the beginning of time, theisland of Mata Nui was a tropicalparadise. Then a shadow of fearand darkness fell across the land.That shadow's name was Makuta.

In the dark years that followed,the islanders, the Tohunga, puttheir faith in a legend. A legendthat foresaw the arrival of 6 migh-ty heroes called Toa.

Only the Toa will have both thestrength and bravery to bringpeace and harmony to the world.

To fulfil their destiny, they mustfind the Kanohi Masks of Power.They must face countless obstac-les, and fierce competition, buttheir greatest test will be to bringan end to Makuta and thedarkness.

Let the legend begin...

He is a slow, but basically friendlycharacter upon whom you canalways depend. He is not good atsnap decisions, but when he deci-des on a course of action hesticks with it until the end, andwoe betide anyone who gets inhis way.

Pohatu prefers the lower slopes,moving slowly but sure-footedlyamong the rocks and boulders atthe base of the great mountains.Pohatu can, sometimes literally,move mountains and cause mas-sive rocks to explode like a bomb,or roll with great precisiontowards any attacker.

Pohatu is liked by all the Toa, bothfor his amiable character and hisrock-solid dependability.

Whenever there is trouble,Pohatu will always be therebehind you, an immovable forcethat few enemies can dislodge.His only fear is water - he cannotswim, and if in water, he quite lite-rally sinks like a stone.

Onua watches over the land, andintervenes to restore balancewhen it is threatened. Onua isbelieved to be responsible forearthquakes, which he inflicts onthe inhabitants when he isdispleased with the way they arecaring for his domain.

Onua is at home both above andbelow ground. With his hugehands, he scrapes out tunnels inthe rocky cliffs. His low, squatbody and head allow him to movequickly in tunnels and his infra-redeyes give him amazing night visi-on, but in normal daylight his eye-sight is poor, although hecompensates for this withamazingly powerful hearing. He isslower in open land thanunderground, but has incrediblestrength and surprising dexterity.

Onua is very strong in charactertoo, and can always be relied uponin a crisis. He thinks deeply, and atlength, and when he speaks, it isalways in a very considered way -Onua doesn’t waste his words.

But as a friend, Onua is the best -he will always be there for you.This doesn’t mean he looks aftereveryone equally: he can not tole-rate fools, although he will alwaysgive anyone the benefit of thedoubt, the first time.

Gali is the only female Toa. TheTohunga believe she is the sustai-ner of life. But Gali never getsconceited about this - she alwayshas a benevolent attitude to allliving things. This doesn’t meanshe can’t get angry - she can - butit takes a lot to anger her.As longas the waters are treated well, shewill in return treat life well. But ifher waters are polluted, then shewill take her revenge.

Gali is at home both in and abovethe water. Here she can swim andmove quickly around the water-falls that plunge down into the icywater, using her grappling hookarm to pull herself to safety ifneed be, or to keep steady onslippery surfaces. She can’t exa-ctly control the waters, but shecan work in harmony with them,and they will protect her if theycan in times of danger.

Gali is the most agile and gym-nastic of the six Toa: with hersmall body and long legs she canbe very fast, and with incrediblejumping abilities. She is alsoexpert in her own brand of acro-batic self-defence (although shewill only use them as a last res-ort).The only thing that slows herdown is excessively hot and dryconditions.

The Tohunga have the greatest ofrespect for Tahu, knowing that firecan destroy quicker than any-thing, and more unpredictably. Heis the guardian and provider offire.

Tahu is most at home in the hotmolten world of the Volcano,where he uses his incrediblebalance to surf on lava flows, usinghis sword of flames to cut throu-gh rocks and keep the lava movingdown towards the ocean. He isthe fiercest of the six Toa, and themost feared - you don’t want toget into a fight with Tahu if youcan help it.

And as befits a fire Toa, he is oftenhot-headed and irrational, with aflaming temper. He has the leastpatience of all of them, and is thefirst to resort to the physical if aproblem isn’t getting solved, whichmore often than not gets him andhis fellow Toa into trouble.

But they always forgive him, ofcourse - Tahu may be fiery, but heis also fiercely loyal, and while heargues constantly with the others,there is nothing he wouldn’t dofor them when they are threate-ned.

Lewa controls the skies, the cloudsand the wind, and as such is oftenat odds with Gali, the Toa ofwater. The Tohunga believe thatthe rains are the result of a con-flict in the skies between the twospirits, and the thunder and light-ening the sound of their battle.

In his physical form, Lewa isalmost monkey-like, and prefersto inhabit the treetops. Movingquickly around the jungle he cancut vegetation with powerful armsand is supremely competent withaerial activities, and can even glidethrough the air when jumpingfrom tree to tree. He hates water,which is a problem when hecomes down to the ground, asmuch of his beloved rainforestgrows over swampy land. Lewa isnot very gainly when on two feet,and has an almost clumsy loafingwalk when on flat surfaces.

Lewa is not the down to earthcharacter that Onua is- he ismore flighty, more ready to jumpto conclusions than the others,and as such often gets into troub-le first.

But his instincts are good, and hishunches often turn out to beright, often to the annoyance ofthe others after they have plod-ded their way through a problemby the book. But if there’s a fight,he will always be the first to getinvolved, protecting the othersbefore himself.

As you would expect of an iceToa, Kopaka is cool, calculating,and coldly methodical in his actions.

Kopaka is most at home on theice and snow, skiing up and downthe slopes with consummateease, and using his long ice bladeto cut and melt his way throughthe ice both for shelter and whenmaking traps for his enemies. Heknows the ways of the ice andsnow, and with one skilful swipeof his blade can conjure up ava-lanches, or instantly freeze any-thing the blade touches.

Of all the Toa, Kopaka is the leastcommunicative, always preferringto work alone, and will only joinforces with the others if it’s abso-lutely necessary for his own survi-val. This doesn’t mean he doesn’tlike the others, just that he is verymistrustful.

Vakama, holder of the GreatFirestaff and protector of Tahu'slegend. He is famous for his quicktemper and great courage regard-less of the odds, as well as speedto protect those who show cou-rage. He is great friends withMatau and it is said that whenthey sit together at the firesideand tell the great stories,Tahu andLewa themselves can be heard inthe rustle of the trees andcrackling in the village fire.Vakama has little time for nonsen-se and practical jokes, but thefearlessness of his people canseem a little impulsive or evenfoolish to outsiders.

The inhabitants of Mata Nui,the Tohunga, live in six villa-ges scattered around theisland. Each village is hometo a priest known collective-ly as the Turaga. The Turagaplay a vital role in the com-munity as the keepers of thelegend of Mata Nui. TheTuraga are very wise andmarvelous storytellers. Onlythe Turaga can help the Toato find and defeat the evilMakuta.

Onewa, protector of Pohatu’slegend, is known among his close-st friends in this cheerful andinformal tribe as 'The Referee', ashe sometimes seems to take anage to make a decision, but isnever to be argued with once hehas decided. Like all of his tribehe is sure-footed and swift overloose ground. He often travels tomeet with Whenua to discuss thegreat stories and also what mustbe quarried and carved in prepa-ration for the coming of the Toa.

Nokama protector of Gali’slegend, knows more about theways of the oceans and riversthan anyone but Gali herself. Hisfork is said to be made from thebones of a Makuta fish foundwashed up on the shore back inthe time of Mata Nui. His maskhas an invisible layer of sea pearlwax which helps him move morequickly when diving underwater.Nokama has a reputation forbringing the Turaga together andresolving disagreements with hispractical logic. All of the Turagarespect the way he listens to allsides of any discussion, but thisquality is most admired by his clo-sest friend Nuju.

Nuju is the protector of Kopaka’slegend. Some find Nuju aloof anduncaring, but nothing could befurther from the truth, it is justthat he does not show his feelingseasily only showing his true selfthrough his generous deeds. It issaid that he can tell stories thatlast for days using gestures andwhistles that only Matoro caninterpret. Nuju has great sight andseems to have more time to reactthan any.

Whenua is the protector of Onua’slegend and known to all on MataNui for his fairness and good jud-gement, and the honest wisdom ofhis words. He guides work in thevast, complex tunnels and the quar-ry, always seeing problems a daybefore they occur and helpingthose around him solve problemsfor themselves. He carries the Drillof Onua, with which he can listento the shape of that which is unse-en behind the rock and tell if thetunnel will be good, or lead to oneof Makuta's traps and lairs.

Matau, the protector of Lewa’slegend, is like the silence at the cen-tre of a tornado when he is amonghis people, calm, stable and pater-nal. But in truth he should bewatched carefully unless you wantto be the victim of one of his jokes,for in spite of his straight mandemeanor, he is the greatest jokerin the pack. He is also a brave war-rior and a leader who receives theutmost in loyalty. He can make thetribe feel like they are on a holidaywhen they are in the gravest dangerand the tribe repay him with a cou-rage which is to be found nowhereelse on Mata Nui. He caries a KauKau staff which has many uses in hisdense jungle home.
