History
Frostelus were created by the Makuta using Viruses and Liquid Protodermis to be one of the Rahi to inhabit the Matoran Universe.
Six thousand years before the Great Cataclysm, a large group of Frostelus launched an attack against a group of Toa tasked with guarding the Makoki Stone and stationed at a fortress. Two Skakdi, Vezok and Hakann, stole the Stone before the Frostelus attacked, and when they did, all of the Toa in the fortress except for the young Lhikan were killed.
Two of the Toa Hagah, Norik and Iruini, also ran into some Frostelus during their travels, but they managed to defeat them using a cyclone of molten lava.
Shortly after the Great Cataclysm, a group of icebergs were spotted drifting to the north of Metru Nui. As they approached, they were revealed to be Frostelus, although their presence continues to be a mystery. When the Rahi began to invade the city, Toa Takanuva battled several of them and drove them off.
The Dark Hunters saw the Frostelus as being useful allies, as the Shadowed One was hoping to form an alliance with them, having Subterranean discuss it with them.
The Kingdom Alternate Universe
In this alternate universe, the Frostelus were among the many beings that fled to the island of Mata Nui when the Great Spirit died. They made their home in the region of Ko-Wahi with the Ko-Matoran.
Abilities and Traits
Frostelus are creatures housed within larger suits of armor. Their armor has both two legs and four arms; one pair of arms ends in sharp claws, whereas the other pair ends in large hook-like appendages. They have the ability to launch dual Rhotuka spinners from their shoulders. As a result of their increased intelligence and sapience, the powers of their spinners vary between individuals. The Frostelus are also known to travel within icebergs, which serve as homes and protection for the Frostelus as they float across the sea.
They are fiercely territorial, and are not afraid to attack in large numbers. Their attacks are devastating, and even Toa have fallen before them.
Set Information
The Frostelus can be built out of the Toa Hordika sets Nokama, Onewa, and Nuju. Its building instructions were featured on LEGO.com, although they are no longer available. Both sides of its body feature a Rhotuka Launcher and silver Rhotuka spinner.
Trivia
- It was rumored that the Frostelus were former victims of the Visorak, but this is unconfirmed.
- An alternate timeline created in the mind of Toa Lesovikk by the Kanohi Olisi worn by Karzahni was made so that Lesovikk's team joined forces with the besieged Toa and saved them from the Frostelus.
