Toa/Other Toa

From BIONICLEsector01

"Less than fifteen minutes later, they were on the march, over one hundred Toa with Lhikan and Nidhiki in the lead. Clouds of dust kicked up under their armored feet as they traveled well-worn paths through Po-Metru. Each of them had lost a brother or a sister Toa in this war, and all wanted it to end. But not before they had made the Dark Hunters pay in full for their crimes."
— Narrator, Birth of a Dark Hunter

In the Matoran Universe, there are many other Toa who do not belong to Toa teams or about which fairly little is known.

Toa Teams

Jovan's Team

Toa Jovan, leader of his team

Led by Jovan, this team was the first to reach the Kanohi Ignika, traveling during the Great Disruption. They successfully claimed the mask and used it in Karda Nui, healing Mata Nui at the cost of one of the team's members. Several of the survivors became Turaga, leading Matoran in other areas.

  • Jovan - A Toa of Magnetism who became the lone Turaga of Voya Nui; he died during the Great Cataclysm.
  • A male Toa who used the Kanohi Ignika; died while reluctantly using the mask.
  • A Toa who wore a Kanohi Olmak; killed, mask stolen by the Makuta.
  • An unknown number of Toa who became Turaga
    • A Toa who wore a Kanohi Elda

Varian and Norik's Team

This team was originally two separate teams, who came together in order to fight off Protocairns and Parakrekks, and stayed together after the battles due to the success of their teamwork. This team would send members off in pairs on missions around the universe. During one such assignment, Norik and Varian encountered the Dark Hunters, who kidnapped Varian but released Norik. Norik eventually left this team to join the Toa Hagah, and his remaining teammates presented him with metallic armor and weapons as a badge of honor.

  • A Toa of Gravity - The leader of the team whom Varian convinced to allow her to participate in more dangerous missions.
  • Varian (formerly)
  • Norik (formerly)
  • An undisclosed number of other Toa serving on the team

Makoki Stone Guard Team

This team was active around 7,000 years ago, defending the Makoki Stone at a Toa Fortress; all but one of the members died in an attack from Frostelus.

  • The leader of the team, who ordered Lhikan to escape and warn others
  • A Toa of the Green
  • A Toa who used a flail
  • A Toa who used a mace
  • Lhikan - A Toa of Fire who was a rookie at the time. He escaped on the orders of the team's leader and was the only survivor of the Frostelus attack.

Lhikan's Army

Lhikan commanded more than 300 Toa in the Toa/Dark Hunter War on Metru Nui, of whom most are now either deceased or transformed into Turaga. The team was initially comprised of around 200 members gathered by Naho, who arrived early in the war to help Lhikan's team. The rest came to Metru Nui at the very end of the war to surround the Dark Hunters and force them to surrender. This is considered the largest Toa team to have ever existed.

Other Toa Teams

  • Dume's Team - A Toa team Dume once led; the status of this team's Toa is unknown, except for Dume, who has become a Turaga.

The Melding Alternate Universe
