The eight Hordika Dragons are Dark Hunters mutated by Hordika Venom.

History

Some time ago, a group of Visorak stumbled upon Odina. They were captured and had their venom analyzed. The Shadowed One later tested the venom's properties on eight of his Dark Hunters, mutating them into the beings known as the Hordika Dragons.

The Shadowed One uses the Hordika Dragons to force his clients to abide by their deals, if for some reason they attempt to withhold pay. At some point, their Hordika sides may soon take over, but until then, they continue to serve the Dark Hunters.[2]

After the Matoran Universe was critically damaged in the Battle of Bara Magna, the Hordika Dragons immigrated to Spherus Magna.[3][4]

Abilities and Traits

Apart from their enhanced strength, speed and tracking senses, the Hordika Dragons also have a natural electric current flowing through their claws, which can be controlled at will. As a result of exposure to Hordika Venom, the dragons have a very animalistic nature.[2]

The Hordika Dragons possessed Rhotuka launchers.[5]

Trivia

  • The Hordika Dragons were created by Austin Stoeffler, for the LEGO Magazine Dark Hunter Building Challenge, and were given a storyline role and place in the book BIONICLE: Dark Hunters, by Greg Farshtey.
  • The image from BIONICLE: Dark Hunters is mirrored, as evidenced by the teeth of the ripcord. It sits on the right side, while the placement of the launcher only allows it to sit on the left side. Because no official publications feature an un-mirrored image of the Hordika Dragons, the image in this article has been left mirrored.
