Biography

Early life

The Great Spirit Mata Nui created Kojol 100,000 years ago using a pool of the substance known as Antidermis located on one of the Southern Islands of the Matoran Universe. Like other Makuta, he became a member of the Brotherhood of Makuta, an organization tasked with maintaining order and carrying out the will of Mata Nui. Kojol was responsible for the creation of several Rahi breeds to populate the Matoran Universe and specialized in flying and marine Rahi, such as the Proto Drake.

Following the Matoran Civil War on Metru Nui, Kojol was entrusted with supervising the island of Artakha and the uninhabited island connected to it, and was one of the few beings who knew its ruler. He kept the location of the island a secret from everyone, going so far as to use his air and sea Rahi to protect Artakha from all intruders, even other Makuta.

When Teridax demanded a Convocation be held on Destral to reveal his plan to overthrow the Great Spirit, Kojol sided with Teridax. This plan relied a great deal on the cooperation of Kojol, whose secrecy made Bitil and Mutran nervous. When the Makuta first evolved, Kojol had a small portion of his Antidermis and armor taken from him by Chirox for study so as to discern what had happened to them.

Raid on Artakha

Later, Kojol led the raid on Artakha to steal the Kanohi Avohkii, and was the only Makuta to take part in it. During the invasion, Kojol led a strike team of Visorak, Rahkshi and Exo-Toa. The team of Visorak was quickly defeated by two Crystal Serpents, and the Rahkshi defeated by Artakha's inventions. However, the Exo-Toa managed to take control of the island, permitting Kojol to enter Artakha's fortress and take the Avohkii.

Kojol later traveled to Xia to request an armor-eating type of virus to be incorporated into a weapon. While there, he hid several viruses beneath Xia for safe-keeping; thousands of years later, these would be recovered by the Shadowed One. Unbeknownst to Kojol, Artakha had requested the Order of Mata Nui eliminate all who knew the location of his island. Tobduk arranged for Kojol's virus to escape, and it devoured Kojol's armor. Kojol's Antidermis was then destroyed by the blazing flames of a Xian foundry.

Alternate Universes

Toa Empire Alternate Universe

In this alternate universe, Kojol was one of three Makuta who resided in the Archives, along with Teridax and Krika. He later joined in a battle at the Coliseum with a resistance group led by Pohatu. After a fight, his armor was crushed by a Toa of Iron and his essence was incinerated by a Toa of Plasma.

Abilities and Traits

For a Makuta, Kojol was comparatively secretive and never shared his knowledge with others, not even the location of Artakha. His knowledge also made him arrogant and obnoxious.

Being a Makuta, Kojol possessed control over Shadow, the ability to create Kraata, and all forty-two Kraata powers.
