[carve] Biography
Vamprah, like all other Makuta, once worked solely on Rahi creation. When Teridax took over the Brotherhood, Vamprah remained silent throughout the meeting, but joined Teridax in the end.
[carve] Karda Nui
Vamprah discovered a side entrance to Karda Nui and informed the Brotherhood of it. He and several other Makuta were then ordered to invade Karda Nui by air in order to control Mata Nui's situation and prevent the creation of any more Toa of Light by turning the Av-Matoran into Shadow Matoran.
Vamprah had just drained the light of Radiak, when Matoro entered Karda Nui to use the Ignika. Though he saw Vamprah briefly before dying, he did not know who it was. Like Antroz and Chirox, Vamprah was permanently blinded by the bright light caused when Matoro revived Mata Nui from death. Therefore, the three Makuta chose Shadow Matoran to act as their "eyes," Vamprah choosing Gavla to act as his.
Shortly after, Vamprah and the other Makuta battled with the remaining Av-Matoran. During the conflict, Vamprah launched a Tridax Pod, but the Shadow Leeches in it were destroyed by Tanma. The Toa Nuva then appeared and the Makuta momentarily retreated to their lair, discussing their plans.
Later, the Makuta battled with the three Toa Nuva, Kopaka, Pohatu and Lewa. During the battle, Vamprah used his Kanohi Avsa and defeated Kopaka.
Vamprah, along with Antroz and Chirox, arrived at the Shadow Leech Hive just as Kopaka and Solek defeated Mutran. They were able to defeat the Toa and Matoran and capture them.
While Antroz and Mutran interrogated the Toa, Vamprah and Chirox held the Av-Matoran hostage until Pohatu saved them. The Toa destroyed the Shadow Leech vats and then ran through Vamprah and Chirox using Pohatu's Kakama Nuva, causing the two great pain. Afterwards, the hive was destroyed by the Toa Ignika.
Shortly after the hive was destroyed, the Makuta regrouped at Antroz's cavern. Icarax arrived afterwards and the Makuta ventured to the last remaining Av-Matoran village to destroy it, only to find it deserted. Gavla then found two Shadow Matoran bound by Lightvines. They freed the Matoran, and learned from them that the Toa Nuva had ambushed them then fled towards the Makuta's lair, and Vamprah realized that they were after the third Keystone.
While Vamprah and Gavla flew with the other Makuta to the lair, they were ambushed by the Toa Nuva and the Av-Matoran. Vamprah and Gavla became engaged in a battle with Lewa and Tanma, but were interrupted by Vican, who delivered Mutran's message telling the Makuta to retreat to the Swamp of Secrets and regroup. Vamprah grudgingly agreed after Lewa was joined by all of the remaining Av-Matoran.
Vamprah and the other Phantoka Makuta later rejoined their brothers in the swamp who were engaged in battle against the Mistika Toa Nuva. However, the Phantoka Toa Nuva also arrived, just in time to help their fellow Toa.

More fighting ensued, and the Makuta forces were soon driven back temporarily by the sudden arrival of Takanuva. After the Toa formulated a plan, they flew straight at the Codrex, downing any Makuta coming near them. However, Antroz flew behind, unnoticed, leaving the other Makuta outside of the large structure.
After Krika had disabled the shield around the Codrex using his intangibility powers, Icarax flew up above the Codrex and slowly crushed it inwards. Gorast and Vamprah flew off to confront him, although their attack proved futile until Mutran arrived in aid. While Mutran filled Icarax's head with nonsense telepathically, Gorast sent mental messages to Vamprah to formulate a plan, and the two approached Icarax with utmost ease. After Gorast taunted Icarax that the Toa were slowly awakening Mata Nui, he began to teleport away to fight them. Gorast grabbed him while he was teleporting and disrupted his atoms, causing them to go wild. Then Vamprah threw a sonic blast at him, sending his atoms all across the universe, killing him.
Later on, Vamprah attempted to escape from the building Energy Storms. Blinded, he was not able to get out in time and was destroyed by the storm, as were all the other Makuta present.
[carve] Abilities and Traits
Vamprah enjoyed stalking his enemies as opposed to direct combat. He even toyed with his prey just to prolong a hunt.
Vamprah disliked speaking, for he found it to be unnecessary noise and impeded on his hunting ability. He usually communicated through telepathy.
As a Makuta, Vamprah possessed many abilities which included elemental Shadow powers, shape-shifting abilities, the ability to produce Kraata, and all forty-two Kraata powers.
[carve] Mask and Tools
Vamprah wore the Kanohi Avsa, the Mask of Hunger. It allowed him to drain the light, energy, or positive emotions from his target. His preference was always the latter, but he would drain an opponent's energy in combat.
Vamprah used his knife-sharp wings and his claws as weapons in combat. He also had a Tridax Pod in which Shadow Leeches were stored.

[carve] Set Information
Vamprah was released in winter 2008 as one of the three Makuta Phantoka canister sets and contained 49 pieces. This form of Vamprah is noteworthy for having not arms but rather two massive wings, each featuring a single clawed digit and a blended dark silver/normal silver wing piece representing the razor edge of these wings. Vamprah's mask, as is the case with the masks of most Makuta sets, features a two-color blend, in his case silver and dark blue. Pressing a button on his back deploys a Tridax pod that can hold the set's four Shadow Leeches. Vamprah, along with the rest of the canister Phantoka, can "team-up" with his corresponding Matoran set. His parts can also be combined with those of the Pohatu Nuva Phantoka and Toa Ignika sets to make the Niazesk model, using instructions in the May-June issue of LEGO Brickmaster magazine.
