Hydraxon is a former member of the Hand of Artakha and Order of Mata Nui who perished during the Great Cataclysm. He is also the namesake for a transformed duplicate who fulfills his duties.

Biography

Hydraxon was originally a member of the Hand of Artakha. He was later invited to join the Order of Mata Nui. Hydraxon also recruited fellow former Hand member Axonn into the Order.

Hydraxon was later called upon to train the Toa Mata, a team of six Toa who had recently been created at the time. Hydraxon trained the Toa Mata in melee combat, fighting them himself and unleashing his Energy Hound, Spinax, upon them. He also tested their compatibility with one another, unmasking them, placing them in hard to reach areas, and forcing them to work together as a team.

After he finished training the Toa Mata, Hydraxon was assigned to be the jailer of the Pit. There, he was assisted by several Maxilos robots. At some point, he gave custody of Spinax to one of the Maxilos robots. When the Pit was impacted during the Great Cataclysm, its dome was shattered and a cave-in ensued. Hydraxon was badly injured during the event and tried to stop the inmates from trying to escape, only to be killed by one of his prisoners, Takadox.

Hydraxon was then transported to the Red Star to be revived and sent back to the Matoran Universe. However, as the return function of the Red Star suddenly malfunctioned, Hydraxon was unable to be returned to the Matoran Universe, and remains trapped in the Red Star as a result.

One thousand years later, the Kanohi Ignika transformed the Po-Matoran Dekar into a replica of Hydraxon. The Ignika duplicated everything about the original Hydraxon, including his memories, so Dekar now believes he is the original jailer of the Pit.

Abilities and Traits

Hydraxon has a strong sense of justice and is dedicated to his job, never giving up on re-capturing escapees. As with all Order of Mata Nui members, Hydraxon's mind is shielded against Telepathy and mental attacks. He is also a master of weaponry and an expert at all variations of combat tactics with all types of weapons. Hydraxon also has very sensitive hearing.

Tools

Hydraxon has thick protective armor, and wears a helmet. He also possessed a wide range of weaponry and tools with which he is extremely skilled in using. Hydraxon carried a Cordak Blaster, Wrist Blades, Exploding Boomerangs, and two Back Blades. After his revival on the Red Star, the status of his tools is unknown.

His Exploding Boomerangs were mounted on his shoulders. On his left wrist he wore his Wrist Blades while a Cordak Blaster was affixed to his right. The set featured nine Cordak mini-rockets, three of which could be stored on his feet at specific points while the other six occupied the barrel of the Cordak Blaster.
