Hahli was a Ga-Matoran net-mender, fish-catcher, Chronicler, Kolhii Champion, and good friend of Jaller - captain of the Ta-Koro Guard (prior to their transformation into the Toa Inika). Ever since she and other brave Matoran defended Ga-Koro from a swarm of Pahrak, Hahli has become more adventurous and helpful to her fellow Matoran. After changing through roles very quickly, Hahli ended up becoming a Toa Inika and later a Toa Mahri on a mission to find the Mask of Life.

[carve] Matoran

[carve] Metru Nui

Hahli was one of Nokama's Students before she was captured by the Vahki and put into a Matoran Sphere.

The Toa Metru rescued the Matoran of Metru Nui and transported them to the island of Mata Nui. Hahli was never very active until the Pahrak attack on Ga-Koro. There, she and Macku helped dismantle the causeways so that the Pahrak couldn't get over to the Ga-Koro village. She also developed a close friendship with a Ta-Matoran named Jaller, Captain of the Guard.

When Gali's Nuva Symbol was stolen, Hahli saw her summoning a tidal wave, only for her to suddenly lose her powers. Hahli immediately set off to find Nokama and told her what had happened.

To everyone's surprise, after the Bohrok-Kal had been defeated, Nokama chose Hahli as Kolhii champion instead of Kotu. She went around the island with Macku, training up and meeting several Matoran. She also found several charms, the six Crystals hidden on Mata Nui, and solved the riddles in the six temples.

Eventually, they got into the Kolhii Championship in Ta-Wahi where Po-Koro and Ta-Koro were playing. Ga-Koro's team beat the other teams, although the Po-Matoran were close. But that was when the Mask of Light slipped out from Jaller's bag, where it had been stowed after discovery. She wanted to speak to Jaller, but he had to leave quickly as herald.

After Ta-Koro's destruction, Hahli placed the crystals in slots near the Amaja circle on the Ta-Koro beach. She was teleported on Kini-Nui and to a beach, where Turaga Nokama told her that she was to be the Chronicler.

When Jaller died and Takua transformed into Takanuva, she mourned greatly for him. She was the one who proposed putting his mask upon the Ussanui, as a symbol of leading one to victory and a new light. She even snuck into the Ussanui and went down with Takanuva into Mangaia. There, Takanuva sent her back to get the other Turaga and Toa Nuva and tell them to come. After the battle, with Takutanuva lifting the door, she ran by with Jaller's mask. She was stopped by Takutanuva, however, who gave up part of his life force to bring Jaller back to life.

Hahli returned to Metru Nui by boat along with all the other Matoran of Mata Nui. She was chosen by Jaller to accompany him and some others to Voya Nui.

[carve] Toa Inika

After being chosen by Jaller, Hahli, along with Kongu, Nuparu, Hewkii, and Matoro began their journey to Voya Nui, along with Takanuva. The Matoran and Toa later reached an archway through which Jaller's company passed but Takanuva couldn't. After a long farewell, they moved on. They then arrived at Karzahni's realm where the ruler took Hahli's mask and replaced it with another. She was then ordered to tell Karzahni about the "outside world" as Karzahni knew nothing outside of his realm. After hours of story-telling, Karzahni, upon request, told his story. Later, Hahli managed to escape with her friends in Toa Canisters which brought them to Voya Nui. On their arrival to Voya Nui, Hahli was struck by a bolt from the Red Star, transforming into a Toa Inika.

After a brief discussion in a cave, the Toa Inika began their quest to find the missing Toa Nuva. They encountered the Piraka Vezok, and battled against the rogue Dark Hunter. After winning, the Toa Inika met with the Voya Nui Resistance Team, where they split up into 3 groups, with Hahli, Jaller, Dalu and Piruk as one team. The 4 beings departed to an enslaved Matoran group, and using Zamor Spheres filled with Energized Protodermis, they started freeing the Matoran. Hahli later reunited with the other Toa Inika, and battled against the other Piraka.

During the battle, Piraka Hakann and Thok used a special Zamor Sphere to absorb the powers of Brutaka, gifting them with immense power, while knocking Brutaka out. The two Piraka quickly defeated the Toa and the other Piraka and began their search for the Ignika, Mask of Life. The Piraka and the Toa Inika, after reviving, followed the two and another battle took place, during which the Toa Inika returned the powers back to Brutaka using another special Zamor Sphere, but were knocked unconscious in the process.

By the time they revived, the Piraka had already begun to journey down the 777 Stairs. The Toa Inika decided that they had to follow, and on their trip, they came across challenges such as Umbra and the Chamber of Death. Eventually, they reached the Chamber of Life, where they fought against Vezon and Fenrakk. The Toa Inika managed to push the pair into a pool of lava, but the couple re-emerged, unharmed, with Fenrakk transformed into the Kardas Dragon. The Toa fought against the couple once more, but were being defeated by Kardas' powers. However, the Toa managed to freeze the couple in time using a Zamor Sphere created by Axonn.

After Vezon's defeat, Matoro pried the Mask of Life from his head, only to have it fly from his hands and plunge into the ocean. Hahli attempted to retrieve it, but failed and would have drowned had she not been rescued by a Matoran from Mahri Nui, who then subsequently died (presumably from something similar to decompression sickness). The Toa Inika later talked with the Toa Nuva, and it was agreed that they shall continue the search for the Ignika, while the Nuva depart to prepare the universe for Mata Nui's awakening.

Hahli, along with the rest of the Toa Inika, journeyed down The Cord. During their way, they battled against a group of Zyglak, and escaped into the seas of The Pit when the 300 Foot Mutant Venom Eel began to squeeze it. The Toa Inika then started battling against the eel. During the fight, the Kanohi Ignika unleashed a cry of help, transforming the Toa Inika into the Toa Mahri.

The Toa Mahri managed to defeat the Venom Eel, and proceeded towards Mahri Nui.

Upon arrival, they were attacked by the Matoran there, believing the Toa to be enemies. Hahli managed to convince the Matoran that they were Toa, and that they would not harm the Matoran there. While Matoro stayed behind, the other Toa Mahri proceeded to the Fields of Airweed, where they were asked to clear it of the Keras Crabs. When they reached the fields, the Toa confronted the Barraki and was escorted into sea caves. Hahli later used her Kanohi Faxon to hypnotize the squid guarding her cave, and began to explore the sea floor for the Mask of Life.

While exploring, she was attacked by Mantax. Using her Cordak Blaster, she fired at the Barraki and wounded him with her Protosteel Talons. While Mantax made preparations to attack Hahli once more, she used her mask to turn chameleon, then, seeing Mantax's head, she fired, only to find herself in a decoy and having Mantax using his venom to paralyze her. However, Hahli used her Faxon once more to utilize the ability to counter-act poison, and she confronted Mantax, causing the Barraki to believe that his fellow Barraki had betrayed him. The two came to a compromise, and Hahli was named the lieutenant of Mantax's army.

Later, Hahli attacked Hydraxon as the Pit guardian tried to destroy the Mask of Life. However, during the attack, the mask was lost to Mantax, who demanded for the other Barraki to meet with him. Meanwhile, Hahli and the others convinced the Matoran of Mahri Nui to journey up The Cord and return to Voya Nui. On the way, the Toa were ambushed by the now-mutated Piraka. During an attempt by Avak to choke the Toa using his prison powers, Axonn sent out a blast, stunning and knocking out both the Piraka and Toa. After reviving, the Toa talked with Axonn, who took them to a cave holding the Toa Terrain Crawler. The Toa Mahri then entered the creature, who took them down to the waters of The Pit.

Once in The Pit, the Toa Mahri split up, with Hahli and Nuparu attempting to keep the Barraki out of the trouble involving Gadunka. Unfortunately, this proved to be a failure, as the Barraki were departing from all sides. Later, the two Toa Mahri rescued Hewkii from the jaws of Gadunka.

The three Toa then reunited with their comrades, and prepared to destroy The Cord when Gadunka, along with the 300 Feet Mutant Venom Eel and the Ancient Sea Behemoth appeared. The Toa Mahri then began to battle the three Rahi, during which Hahli used her Faxon to become bio-luminescent, luring the Ancient Sea Behemoth into a trap made by Kongu. The Toa Mahri then destroyed The Cord, and followed Matoro, who now had the Kanohi Ignika once more, with the Barraki and their armies right behind them.

During their chase, the Toa Mahri all felt the impact of Mata Nui's death, and they decided that while Matoro made a final attempt to revive Mata Nui, the other Toa would battle against the Barraki and their armies. After an emotional farewell, the five Toa turned and faced the Barraki, preparing to give up their lives for Mata Nui's life.

The Toa fought a desperate battle, with about 100,000 troops against five Toa. Very soon, it became clear to the Toa that they would lose, and Jaller decided to launch a Nova Blast, sacrificing the Toa and killing all their enemies so that Matoro could revive Mata Nui. However, while Jaller channeling his powers, Matoro was using the Kanohi Ignika to revive Mata Nui. Knowing that he must die, the Toa of Ice teleported the Toa Mahri back to Metru Nui in his last moments of life, turning them back to air-breathers once more.

In Metru Nui, Hahli and the others learned of Matoro's fate from Vakama. Hahli later recounted their adventures to Kopeke, the new Chronicler, and later departed for a memorial of Matoro in the Coliseum. Since then, she and the other Toa Mahri have taken over the defense of Metru Nui. In doing so, they defeated and captured the Kardas Dragon. She later went to search for the mysteriously missing Takanuva with the other Toa Mahri (except Jaller), and when she returned, they encountered the Toa Hagah, who told them that they had come to destroy the Coliseum. Both teams of Toa were soon locked in a ferocious battle, one that Hahli unintentionally ended when she blasted Toa Kualus after he summoned a giant Rahi, disrupting his control and setting the beast on a rampage. Once the beast had been stopped, Hahli worked together with Gaaki to put out the resulting fires, and then cooled the walls of a tunnel formed beneath the Coliseum by the combined efforts of the Toa of Fire and Stone of each team. Hahli, like Jaller, wished to accompany the Hagah into the depths, but remained behind at the Hagah's insistence, checking on Hewkii after he passed out from the effort of holding the Coliseum aloft and then lowering it back into place.

As the Toa Mahri left the Coliseum, Hahli discovered a golden crystal that floated in mid-air. As she tried to grab it, it moved out of the way. A stranger appeared telling her and the others about the Heart of the Visorak and that the Visorak horde would travel to wherever the crystal was. Hahli and Nuparu were chosen by Jaller to venture to Artidax with him and place the crystal there. Once they arrived at Artidax, they discover that Takadox was there, having somehow escaped from the Pit. He used his power of hypnosis on the three Toa and escaped with their boat, leaving them on the island with the Visorak.

[carve] Abilities and Traits

As a Matoran, Hahli spent most of her time tending to her many chores in Ga-Koro. She saw herself as only a simple fish-catcher and net-mender, never daring to dream of adventure beyond the shores of her village. Although full of ideas, Hahli was too shy to speak them out loud, and she was often forgotten or overlooked by her fellow Ga-Matoran. Little did Hahli know, but Nokama had glimpsed her true potential and had great plans for the simple net-mender.

Hahli was a Ga-Matoran who grew from a simple net-mender to a Chronicler, 'friend' of the Captain of the Guard and Kolhii champion. After the Mask of Light incident, Takanuva gave his original Chronicler role to Hahli, presumably along with the Chronicler's Staff. When Hahli became a Toa, Kopeke replaced her as Chronicler.

When she became a Toa, Hahli was initially nervous about her new role. She eventually warmed up to it, however, and became more confident to the point of choosing to go on solo missions without fear.

As a Toa Inika, she had Lightning powers along with her Water powers. The lightning constantly crackled inside her, making her immune to the effects of Antidermis, and she could not create water without it having electricity laced in, though she could manipulate existing water without this problem.

As a Toa Mahri, she lost the lightning powers and could only breathe water. When Matoro teleported his team back to Metru Nui, he gave them the ability to breathe air again.

[carve] Mask and Tools

As a Toa Inika, Hahli's mask was Kanohi Elda, the Mask of Detection. It allows the user to find the Mask of Life wherever it may be, as well spotting other hidden objects, such as an Iden user's astral form.

Hahli's tools in her Inika form were a Laser Harpoon, which could fire energy harpoons (it also has been claimed to be able to punch through any armor), as well as a Zamor launcher loaded with Energized Protodermis.

As a Toa Mahri, Hahli wields a pair of Protosteel Talons and a Cordak Blaster, and possesses wing-like fins on her back. Her mask is now a Kanohi Faxon, the Mask of Kindred.

"You know, Jaller always used to say that Toa were invincible, because the things they stand for - unity, duty, and destiny - are invincible. Oh, we had seen them injured, even defeated temporarily, but somehow they - we - always stood to fight again. Even in the worst moments, I thought surely we would win out and return home again. That's what Toa do, isn't it? That's what heroes do."
