[carve] Toa Mata

[carve] Pre-Mata Nui

Kopaka and the rest of his team were created on Artakha. The Toa were then sent to Daxia, where they were introduced to each other and told of their destiny: to be the guardians of the Great Spirit Mata Nui. On Daxia, they were trained in combat by Hydraxon. During one of the first exercises, Kopaka was the only one who succeeded in escaping Spinax, freezing the Energy Hound. As a result, Hydraxon congratulated his original thinking and knocked him down repeatedly afterwards. On another exercise, Hydraxon took the Toa's Kanohi and hid them across the island. Kopaka spent most of the day trying to figure out how to get his Kanohi Akaku out of the volcano on Daxia, until Lewa realized that Hydraxon wanted them to work together. That night, Tahu and Kopaka allowed themselves to be captured by the Order at the fortress so they could get inside. There, they met with Toa Helryx, Toa of Water and leader of the Order of Mata Nui, who agreed to tell them of their mission and their future.

After they finished their training, the Toa Mata were sent to Karda Nui to protect the Av-Matoran who were working there. The six Toa fought against many Rahi, which were being affected by strange energy spikes. After they defeated the Rahi, strange, sentient lightning bolt Rahi known as Avohkah began to attack the Matoran. After several months of fighting the Avohkah, the Rahi were finally defeated and the Av-Matoran finished with their work. Tahu and Kopaka then led the others to the Codrex, the strange, spherical building embedded in one of the stalactites, which trapped them inside upon entering. The two Toa were forced to explain everything to the others: they could not leave, because of the energy storm that now filled Karda Nui would kill them. They then entered Toa Canisters, where they remained for thousands of years.

Their canisters were supposed to be launched into the sky following the events of the Great Cataclysm and land on the island of Mata Nui. From there they would go to the Kini-Nui, descend to Metru Nui, and continue on to awaken Mata Nui. However, a malfunction caused the canisters to instead land in the sea around the island. For one thousand years the canisters floated there until Takua collected the Toa Stones of Mata Nui and the Toa were summoned to the island's shores.

[carve] Mata Nui

[carve] Collecting the Great Masks

Kopaka first awoke when his canister blasted open when Takua summoned the six Toa. After piecing himself together, he met Matoro, whom Kopaka thought was an enemy. Matoro told Kopaka of his quest and about collecting the five other Kanohi Masks. As they walked onward, a Nui-Rama attacked them, causing Matoro to fall over the edge, but was saved by Kopaka. Nuju saw this brave deed and began to tell Kopaka more about his quest. Kopaka, Nuju, and Matoro then split up and Kopaka departed to find his mask at "the place of far-seeing". While climbing up a mountain, Kopaka met Pohatu, who accidentally crushed him while practicing. Undaunted, Kopaka went on, and reluctantly allowed Pohatu to tag along. After reaching the top and finding a Great Hau, Kopaka noticed four strange beings of great power (the Toa). Kopaka and Pohatu defeated a Kane-Ra together on their way to the other Toa and the Toa all officially meet for the first time. But they went their separate ways to search for more Kanohi. After Kopaka found more masks, Onua called another meeting for the Toa. They decided to work together just as Makuta Teridax launched an attack. Kopaka and Gali defeated a Muaka, while the other Toa defeated other Rahi/obstacles. Once again the Toa split up to complete their mask collecting, and once again they regrouped at Kini-Nui. There Kopaka received his Golden Kanohi and the Toa entered the path to Teridax's lair, the Mangaia. On their way the Toa encountered Manas, and Gali and Kopaka agreed based on their visions that the Toa should combine form with Lewa, to become a Toa Kaita. They defeated the Manas, and then the Shadow Toa. After a hard battle, the Toa worked together to defeat Teridax. Kopaka, along with the other Toa, was transported back to the surface after their victory.

[carve] Defeating the Bohrok

Just a few hours after the Toa's victory over Teridax, the Toa got word of terrible creatures, the Bohrok, that were destroying Ta-Koro. Kopaka followed along with the other Toa as they made haste to see what was going on. They found Pahrak and Kohrak destroying the village. After a fight with the Bohrok, and an explanation from Vakama, each Toa set off on their new task: Collect the eight different types of Krana. Kopaka first returned to his village to make sure nothing has happened to it. After seeing that nothing had, he set off to find the eight Krana. While on his way collecting his set of eight, Kopaka learned some devastating news: the Bohrok came from within Mata Nui itself! Kopaka found Tahu and showed him the Bohrok nest, then he continued to find more Krana. Once he and the other Toa found all eight Krana, they met together and entered into the nest. Tahu decided to investigate the nest alone. In the end the Toa were in a seemingly impossible trap, but then Kopaka stopped the lava flow from getting to them. After Tahu heated up the nest until it exploded and Lewa figured out that the strange impenetrable wall was actually an illusion created by the Bahrag the Toa entered the chamber where the Exo-Toa were stored. Kopaka (along with the others) placed his Krana in their correct places and entered his own door to don the Exo-Toa. There they encountered the Bahrag and battled them, but realized that the suits hindered their Elemental Powers. They shed them and combined their powers into one stream of power, causing the Bahrag to be trapped in a Protodermis cage. Then, for some unknown reason, the floor gave way, causing the Toa to be immersed in Energized Protodermis. Kopaka was transformed into Kopaka Nuva.

[carve] Toa Nuva

[carve] The Bohrok-Kal

After his transformation, he left the cave with the other Toa. The Toa began to try out their new powers, which caused them to explode on one another and fight. Of course, the tension between Tahu and Kopaka struck a fierce battle, but Gali, the wisest Toa of them all, stopped the fighting. With tensions running high, the Toa Nuva disbanded and went to their own villages. Kopaka went to Ko-Koro. Pleased to see that his people were safe, Kopaka left. While skiing down the slopes of Mt. Ihu and walking across a chasm by making an ice bridge, Kohrak-Kal stole Kopaka's Nuva Symbol. This caused Kopaka to lose his elemental powers almost instantly, which caused his bridge to break. Without his powers, Kopaka had to use his sword to stop himself from falling by jamming it between two sheer cliffs. He then waited until Nuju found him and used his Mask of Telekinesis to bring Kopaka to safety.

Kopaka went to the drifts to meditate, but was interrupted by Pohatu, who was seeking to accompany him searching for the Kanohi Nuva. Kopaka didn't answer to his calls, and simply went ahead. However, he was tricked into accompanying Pohatu when he pretended he was stuck in a snow-drift. Later Kopaka sat down for some rest, and awoke to a Muaka breathing down his neck. Fortunately, Pohatu distracted the creature, and Kopaka managed to escape. Later they found the cave holding the mask, and Pohatu was able to unblock the entrance. They made their way through the cave, and slowly descended down a huge crevice. When they reached the bottom, a tremor caused a huge rock fall. Pohatu pushed Kopaka out of the way, and Kopaka quickly grabbed the Hau Nuva, and tried to use it to shield Pohatu. Both survived, but Kopaka thought that Pohatu had died. He grieved for him, and made his way back through the cave, and then to Po-Wahi. He gave the Mask to Onewa, saying that it belonged to Pohatu, which Pohatu thanked him for. Kopaka then turned round, and saw that Pohatu was alive and well, actually showing emotion.

Once the Toa all met together, they followed the trail of the Bohrok-Kal to a desert in Po-Wahi. Without their powers, the Toa were utterly defeated by the Kal (since the Kal's mission was not to destroy the Toa, they instead gave them a "warning"). Tahu then told Gali, Onua, and Pohatu to find out what happened to the Bahrag, while he, Lewa, and Kopaka would chase the Kal. They went their separate ways to go collect Krana-Kal and slow the Kal down. Kopaka briefly merged with Gali Nuva and Lewa Nuva to fight a Bohrok-Kal Kaita Ja. The three then met the other Toa and followed the Kal underground to prevent them from freeing the Bahrag. After the ensuing fight (See Tahu Nuva for details), Kopaka's powers returned and he left with the other Toa.

[carve] The Search for the Seventh Toa

After the Kolhii Championship game and the finding of the Mask of Light, the Rahkshi were released to chase down the Herald to the Seventh Toa. Later, Kopaka got word of a meeting that was to take place for planning a strategy to stop the Rahkshi. He left for it right away, but when Kopaka arrived, no one was there; for the Rahkshi had already ambushed the other Toa. Now the Rahkshi came at him and it was Kopaka against all six. At first Kopaka was winning but when Vorahk's Staff of Absorption drained almost all of his energy, all seemed lost. Thankfully Gali, Lewa, and Tahu came and together drove the Rahkshi away. Fights continued against the Rahkshi all across Mata Nui. For Kopaka, that happened when he ran into Takua and Jaller in Ko-Wahi, who where searching for the 7th Toa. Together the three of them started walking, but soon Kopaka noticed something odd. Out of nowhere three Rahkshi appeared. Kopaka defeated them by knocking them into a lake, then freezing it. Then Kopaka left Jaller and Takua to tend to his village, giving them words of comfort before he left.

Later, while searching for the Rahkshi, Tahu, Lewa, and Kopaka found destruction in Le-Wahi. They saw nearby Matoran and proposed to ask them what had happened. It turned out the Matoran were infected by a Shadow Kraata, but the creature that caused the destruction had already left. Kopaka encased the Matoran in ice to "hold them for now" and the Toa left. Eventually, on the outskirts of Ko-Wahi, the two Rahkshi Kaita pulled a surprise attack on the Toa. During the fight, Kopaka saved Lewa by making ice walls that would reflect an attack back at one of the Rahkshi Kaita. The Toa underestimated their foe's power, which was greater than they thought, and they had to retreat and find the other Toa for help. The Toa's ignorance of their foes almost cost them dearly.

Not long after, Kopaka, Lewa, and Tahu met up with Gali, Pohatu, and Onua, who were busy revealing to the Onu-Matoran the discovery of the Mask of Light. That was when Vorahk, Turahk, and Kurahk pulled a surprise maneuver and assaulted Onu-Koro, revealing to the Toa that they were hunting Takua, the true Herald of the Seventh Toa, rather than the Mask of Light (which was with Jaller elsewhere). Kopaka fought valiantly, but in vain; for not long into the battle, Pohatu was blasted by Turahk's Fear energy, while Onua had his energy absorbed by Vorahk, giving the Toa two incapacities right off the bat. Tahu, in an attempt to defend Takua, was blasted by Kurahk, driving him into a dangerous rage and causing him to turn hostile to everyone around him, including his teammates. Takua escaped with Lewa's help, and Pohatu and Onua recovered, but an earthquake caused by Onua in attempt to stop Vorahk and Kurahk brought the cavern ceiling down upon Onu-Koro. Finally, Kopaka, deeming Tahu too dangerous in his current state, was forced to freeze his brother solid, so he could be taken away to be cured.

Kopaka also helped in Tahu's purification by combining his ice energy with the flame energy from Tahu's sword over Tahu's body, allowing Gali to purify him by casting a healing bubble of some sort upon the fire Toa.

After a time, when Gali and Lewa began to speak of how Jaller and Takua had arrived at Kini-Nui - which was almost definitely the location of the Seventh Toa- and how it was up to them alone to set up a final defense against the Rahkshi, who would surely arrive; Kopaka took it upon himself to find Pohatu and Onua, who were lost during the battle of Onu-Koro.

Then, at the final showdown with the Rahkshi at Kini-Nui, the Toa, after Kopaka had arrived with Onua and Pohatu, defeated the Rahkshi with the help of the newly created Takanuva. The Toa of Light went down to Teridax's lair and defeated him. Kopaka went down with the other Toa and Turaga after Hahli summoned them. Takutanuva then opened the gate to Metru Nui for them.

[carve] Return to Metru Nui

After the discovery of Metru Nui, the Toa went around the island to say their goodbyes and remember the past. Then the night before the Matoran, Turaga, and Toa would sail to Metru Nui, the Turaga gathered the Toa to tell them everything. They told them of the time when they were Toa Metru and what happened. After the Turaga finished their talk and the new day came, the Toa left for Metru Nui. Once they got there, they ran into six Doom Vipers, but defeated them using their Kakama Nuva. The Matoran settled in and began to rebuild the city. While rebuilding the Toa ran into Turaga Dume (and presumably the Rahaga). Then after some meetings with Nuju, Dume told the Toa his terrible discovery: Mata Nui was dying. The Toa then set off to Voya Nui to find the Mask of Life.

[carve] Voya Nui

Kopaka eventually arrived on Voya Nui by a Toa Canister similar to the one he arrived on Mata Nui with. Upon arrival, Tahu insisted that they begin searching for the Mask of Life near Mount Valmai. While journeying to there, the Toa encountered the Piraka and a great battle began. Kopaka found himself fighting with Avak, and later got encased in a fire cell. Kopaka tried to escape but every time he tried to freeze the fire, it heated up and he eventually fell unconscious. Zaktan, the leader of the Piraka, ordered the other Piraka to throw him and the other Toa Nuva into Mt. Valmai, the active volcano. When the Piraka were just about to throw the Toa into their doom, an eruption occurred and the Piraka ran away. They defended themselves with what they could. But still the lava caught Kopaka on surprise, badly scorching his right leg. If it was not for the other Toa's help, he could have died. Then the Toa were able to make a clean get-away, but only to come face to face with the Voya Nui Resistance Team. Thinking that the Nuva were just more Piraka "calling" themselves Toa, they attacked the weakened Toa. After a while of trying to not kill the Matoran, Kopaka just got fed up. Now fueled with rage, he went on to turn the tables. While not showing any pain from all the hits he took, Kopaka froze three of the Matoran, leaving Garan and Dalu alone. In the nick of time Balta came and told them that the Toa Nuva were real Toa. In the end, the Matoran and the Nuva aligned themselves together and tried to raid the Piraka's base. However, Brutaka arrived and defeated the Nuva and the Matoran with one blow. Kopaka was placed in Brutaka's custody with the others. Later, he along with the other Toa Nuva were rescued and begun their new mission of preparing the universe for Mata Nui's awakening.

[carve] Preparations for Mata Nui's Awakening

Kopaka traveled with the other Toa Nuva to fulfill the tasks given to them on a scroll. Their first task was to awaken the Bahrag and start the cleansing of Mata Nui. The next task was to retrieve the Staff of Artakha, which they believed to be on the island of Odina. Kopaka and the other Toa Nuva encountered The Shadowed One there, who informed that the staff was on Xia, and in exchange for that information, asked them to kill Roodaka. He and the other Toa went to Xia and found Roodaka, but rather than kill her, forced her to change the Rahaga back into Toa Hagah. Unfortunately, the staff had been stolen by Icarax.

Later, the Toa Nuva followed Icarax to the realm of Karzahni, where all the Toa but Gali were defeated. After the realm was destroyed by a Nova Blast unleashed by Gali, Kopaka was revived and then journeyed with Tahu to a chain of southern islands (including Artidax) where they needed to stop several active volcanoes. He was then teleported by Botar to Daxia where he saw the Staff of Artakha being used to restore the Universe to its former aspect.

After completing their missions, the Toa Nuva arrived on Artakha and stayed long enough to gain new armor. They were then transported to the Universe Core.

[carve] Karda Nui

Upon arrival, the Toa Nuva encountered the Makuta. After the Makuta momentarily retreated to their lair, the Toa landed on a safe location and questioned the Av-Matoran. The Toa Nuva then split into two teams: Lewa, Pohatu and Kopaka as one team, while Gali, Onua and Tahu as another. Kopaka stayed in the skies to lead his team against the Makuta attacking Karda Nui.

Later, the three Toa started to battle against the Makuta, and Kopaka was defeated by Vamprah, who used his Avsa to drain Kopaka's energies. He, Solek, Pohatu and Photok were later bound by Antroz in chains of shadow, hanging from the ceiling of Karda Nui. Lewa later arrived and saved him and the others.

As the three Toa fought the Makuta, Solek gave Kopaka a Keystone and told him that there are five more; Kirop has one, the Makuta have one, and the others are in unknown locations.

Later on, Kopaka flew over to a Shadow Matoran village and took Kirop hostage. The Toa then waited for Kirop to awaken and began a discussion about a planned attack on the Makuta's Shadow Leech Hive. As expected, Kirop fled to the hive, leading Kopaka and his fellow Toa straight to it.

After they broke in, Kopaka and Solek confronted Mutran. Solek was knocked unconscious quickly and Kopaka faked defeat at the hands of Mutran's mental powers. When given the chance by Solek, he struck back and froze Mutran. The victory was short lived as Antroz, Chirox, and Vamprah arrived and defeated them. The Makuta held them hostage for a short time, but were rescued by Pohatu and the Toa Ignika, with the latter destroying the Shadow Leech Hive.

The Makuta, with Icarax now in Karda Nui, soon afterwards launched an assault on the sole remaining Av-Matoran Village, only to find out no one was there. By the time they realized it, Kopaka and his team had taken the third Keystone from their lair and ambushed the Makuta. The battle swayed back and forth, and Antroz almost destroyed Kopaka's armor, but the tide changed when Ignika joined in and defeated Icarax by devolving him back into a biomechanical being. After Antroz's armor was pierced by Kopaka when he reflected Antroz's heat vision back at him using an ice shield, the Makuta retreated following a large blast of Shadow released by Mutran. The Toa then captured the weakened Makuta and forced him to divulge where the others went.

After following the Makuta, Kopaka and the others arrived in the Swamp of Secrets just in time to freeze Antroz's oncoming Shadow blast. They then joined with the other Toa Nuva for the final battle against the Makuta.

Spoiler Warning: Plot or ending details follow. (Please highlight the white space below if applicable)

During the course of the battle, Takanuva arrived, and drove the Makuta off. Tahu took advantage of their absence, and had the Toa read the Keystones. The Toa then proceeded into the Codrex. Inside, Onua found a switch that made the platform lower down. When it reached the bottom, Lewa and the others discovered the Axalara T9, Jetrax T6, and the Rockoh T3. Lewa boarded the Axalara T9, while Pohatu boarded the Rockoh T3, their armor adapting to the vehicles in the process. Before Kopaka could board the Jetrax T6, Antroz hijacked the vehicle. The Toa on the vehicles followed Antroz in full pursuit. When Antroz blasted Pohatu's craft, Lewa engaged him in aerial combat. Kopaka then followed Antroz out of the Codrex, but stopped to catch Radiak. He then gave Radiak to Takanuva, and flew to pursue Antroz.

During the dogfight, Kopaka decreased the temperature of the Jetrax T6 so much the engine slowed, but as the two other vehicles were about to ram into the Jetrax T6, Antroz teleported out. Kopaka released ice barriers, trying to stop the vehicles. He managed to slip into his vehicle, and flew off. He later encountered Takanuva again, and saved him from Bitil. Takanuva had unleashed his rage, and threw Kirop from Chirox's back. Kopaka flew to save Kirop, and then confronted Takanuva about his behavior. Bitil then knocked the two out using his chain lightning power.

When they regained consciousness, the Makuta were gone. Takanuva went off to evacuate the rest of the Matoran, and sometime later, Tahu rounded up the Toa for an escape from Karda Nui. As the Energy Storms started, the Toa used the vehicles to escape.

Kopaka flew the Jetrax T6 to Metru Nui, and after the Toa Nuva's arrival, a celebration to Mata Nui's awakening commenced. This celebration, however, was interrupted by Teridax, who revealed to the whole universe that his plan succeeded, and that he rules the universe.

[carve] The Kingdom

Kopaka helped defend the fleeing citizens of "The Kingdom" Pocket Dimension from the Makuta and Rahkshi as they left the Matoran Universe. When Rahkshi killed Pohatu and Hewkii, Kopaka joined Jaller and Tahu in driving them back.

[carve] Dark Mirror

In the Toa Empire Pocket Dimension, Kopaka and the other Toa Mata were awoken prematurely by Tuyet and convinced that the only way to ensure the safety of the Matoran Universe was to fight with the Toa Empire and destroy the Brotherhood of Makuta and Dark Hunters.

When Takanuva arrived in this dimension, Kopaka and Tahu froze Kapura, who was running across the city at the time, and confronted Takanuva. They took him prisoner and placed him inside the Coliseum.

Later, Kopaka defended the Coliseum from an attacking rebel group. He froze Ahkmou and struck Lesovikk down with an Ice dagger, but was then knocked off the Coliseum by Lesovikk and killed from the fall.

[carve] Abilities and Traits

Kopaka is one of the least social of Toa on the team. He prefers to work alone and only agrees to team up with others when needed. While he sees the importance of teamwork, he still feels uncomfortable by it. Kopaka felt most at home on and skiing down the slopes of Mount Ihu, and he could often be found alone up in the high mountain. Kopaka had and has little patience for fools and reckless behavior. He is known to wander off in the middle of something, leaving anyone else behind. One such case occurred when, after defeating three Rahkshi with Takua and Jaller, he walked off without an explanation while the two Matoran were talking. Kopaka would often have clashes with Tahu, whom he usually disagreed with. Of all the Toa Nuva, Kopaka would only consider Gali and Pohatu his true friends. (He would never admit that Pohatu was his friend, however). He eventually learned that working alone is not always the best approach.

Kopaka has an excellent understanding of the way things work, both on a physical and a mental level. His Akaku lets him examine the insides of anything he wants, which helps him understand the world. He also spent time inside the Sanctum in Ko-Koro pondering mysteries.

Kopaka has control over the element of Ice. He can freeze water, stop snow falling, whip up immense blizzards, cause avalanches, make the temperature drop, freeze his enemy into a solid chunk of ice, or unleash blasts of ice.

[carve] Mask and Tools

Kopaka used a shield as a secondary Toa tool, both as a Toa Mata and as a Toa Nuva. In both cases, his large white shield has proved very useful, even doubling as a way of getting down a slope quickly, as seen in Mask of Light.

From Kopaka's creation until after his arrival on Mata Nui he possessed a single Ice Sword and the Kanohi Akaku, the Great Mask of X-Ray Vision. Preparing for the Toa Mata's confrontation with the Makuta in Mangaia, Kopaka collected five other Kanohi and placed them on his Suva with his Akaku to obtain a Golden Kanohi with the powers of all six masks.

After Kopaka became a Toa Nuva, however, his Ice Sword was replaced with twin Ice Blades which could double as skates. Due to his usage of the shield, Kopaka was the only Toa Nuva to primarily use his weapons in the double edge configuration. His Golden Kanohi, meanwhile, was replaced with an Akaku Nuva, and on the Turaga's recommendation he sought out five other Kanohi Nuva to replace the powers lost in his transformation. These five Kanohi currently remain on his Suva in Ko-Metru.

In his Adaptive Armor form, Kopaka carries a Midak Skyblaster with a Blizzard Blade attached. The Blizzard Blade features a laser-targeting system for the Skyblaster, and can be wielded separately from the blaster as a conventional blade or knife. His mask now features a laser-targeting system as well. Unfortunately, the ceiling of Karda Nui's dome currently blocks the usual mental access to the five secondary Kanohi Nuva stored on his Suva.

[carve] Set Information

Kopaka was first released as a canister set in 2001. It contained 33 pieces. If you turned the gear on his back, his right arm would move up and down, swinging his Ice Sword.

Kopaka was released again as a Toa Nuva canister set in summer 2002. It contained 43 pieces and featured a similar gear function; if you moved the back gear, his arms would move in opposite directions. Alternatively, one could replace the gear operating his left shoulder to his back and replace it with a pin included in the set. The gear could now either be pushed in towards his body to allow for the movement of his right arm on its own or pulled out to lock the right arm in place. Two axles and two bushings included in the set could be used to attach his Ice Blades to his feet as skates.

Kopaka has been released again in winter 2008 in his Phantoka form bestowed by the Adaptive Armor. He, like the rest of the Phantoka canister sets, can "team-up" with the Matoran small set of the same color, in this case Solek. The 2008 Kopaka set consists of 54 pieces including four silver Zamor Spheres representing the Light spheres fired by his Midak Skyblaster.
