Battles and Conflicts

The Battle of Mangaia
Aspect of Society
Location All areas of the universe
Purpose Achieve power

Effects Shift of balance of power


Battles and Conflicts are combative events that occur when two factions, comprised of one or more individuals, begin fighting one another, in order to achieve a goal. These battles usually end either when one faction eventually overpowers the others, or a third party steps in to end it.

Battles occur on a smaller magnitude than Wars, which typically involve large organizations or influential groups fighting with each other.

Generation 1

Spherus Magna

On Spherus Magna, the societies were organized into tribes. These tribes coexisted relatively peacefully until the arrival of the Element Lords. The Lords also maintained a semblance of peace until the discovery of Energized Protodermis. Ownership of the mysterious substance lead to the Core War, which caused the Shattering.

After the Shattering, battles became regulated and organized on Bara Magna in the form of Arena Matches. Due to the scarcity of resources, inhabitants of the desert world frequently clashed inside and outside the arena in order to survive.

Matoran Universe

The denizens of the Matoran Universe were designed by the Great Beings as nanotech, intended to keep the Great Spirit Robot, governed by Mata Nui, functioning. Despite this, they developed into highly advanced artificial beings, and also came into conflict with one another, spawning numerous fights and several wars.
