Pronunciation AV-sah[1]


The Kanohi Avsa is the Mask of Hunger. It allows its user to drain light, energy, or positive emotions from a target at a distance,[2][3] even to the point that it kills the target.[4] The user will absorb the energy removed from their target.[citation needed] The mask can also drain a Makuta's essence.[5]

This mask can be used to make lightless beings such as Shadow Matoran.[6] The Kanohi Avsa places a psychological barrier in its victims that keeps their light from returning, although the light drain must be complete before the barrier is set.[7] The power scream of klakk can reverse this by breaking the barrier. Other beings with a sonic scream ability could also break the barrier, granted they know the exact frequency, volume, and duration to do so.[8][9]
