[carve] History
The Bohrok were created for one purpose, cleansing Mata Nui to a barren wasteland, as it was in the time before time. Upon creation, they were put into stasis, awaiting the time when they would be needed. When the Toa Mata succeeded in defeating Makuta Teridax, he unleashed the Bohrok Swarms, hoping to impede the Toa's progress. Awakened, the Gahlok began cleansing the island, and defeating whoever got in their way.
Soon after awakening, a squad of Gahlok traveled to Onu-Koro. Alerted to this, Whenua called for an evacuation of the Koro. While Taipu and Onepu helped with the exodus, Nuparu gathered some supplies. When, at last, the Onu-Matoran escaped the tunnel, the Gahlok unleashed a wave of water, flooding the cavern, and washing Onepu, Nuparu, and Taipu away. When the three Matoran woke up, they found themselves in a darkened cavern. As Nuparu fetched a Lightstone, they found themselves in the same cavern as a disabled Gahlok. Thinking, Nuparu began using the Gahlok's parts to build an invention, while Onepu and Taipu helped. At last, Nuparu completed the job, and used it to destroy the boulder blocking their path. Returning to their abandoned village, Nuparu began battling the Gahlok in his invention, the Boxor. He succeeded, and several Gahlok fled.
In a different part of the island, Toa Gali and Pohatu were busy collecting Krana from Bohrok. After defeating several Tahnok, they found themselves among Gahlok. After much work, the two of them defeated the swarm, earning more Krana. The Toa were victorious in many more battles, and ended up defeating the Bohrok Queens, the Bahrag. Relieved of their Krana, the Gahlok began to help rebuild the villages.
Soon, the Toa Nuva encountered a new enemy, the Bohrok-Kal. After having their elemental energies drained, the Toa had little luck defeating them. The Gahlok then experienced a change of heart, and began helping the Bohrok-Kal. After many hardships, the Toa Nuva defeated the threat, and the Bohrok returned to hibernation.
After adventures on the island of Voya Nui, the Toa Nuva returned to the deserted island of Mata Nui. Knowing the Bohrok's true purpose, the Toa Nuva reawakened the swarms. The Gahlok continued with their cleansing of Mata Nui, and met opposition only when they encountered the Kardas Dragon. After subduing the creature, the Bohrok completed their task, and went back to hibernation, awaiting the time when they would be needed again.
