"Ehrye? So that was his name! He came in asking a lot of questions about Kanoka disks, the Morbuzakh plant, how to get up to the higher levels... all sorts of things that were not his business."

Biography

Metru Nui

On Metru Nui, Jaa worked as a Scholar in Ko-Metru.[2] He informed Toa Metru Nuju that Ehrye had come, asked him questions and then left by a chute to the top of the Knowledge Tower, when the Toa was searching for the Ko-Matoran. Jaa also gave Nuju a Knowledge Crystal to make a new Knowledge Tower, as several had been toppled by Morbuzakh vines.[3]

Shortly before the Great Cataclysm Jaa was captured by Vahki under the command of Makuta Teridax disguised as Turaga Dume. He was then placed into a Matoran Sphere in the Coliseum and went into stasis but was later spirited away from the city by the Toa Metru and transported to the island of Mata Nui.[4][5]

Mata Nui

Jaa was awakened by the Toa Metru on the shores of Naho Bay on Mata Nui. Despite the fact that his memory had been erased and his size and power diminished by the Matoran Sphere, he assisted in the construction of Ko-Koro using parts from the Airships the Toa Metru had used to transport the Matoran.[6]

In Ko-Koro, Jaa became a Scribe, copying Turaga Nuju's translations of the Wall of Prophecy.[7][8] When Takua arrived in Ko-Koro to speak with Nuju, Jaa informed him of Matoro's absence and opened the tunnel to The Drifts so the Chronicler could search for him.[8] After the Bohrok-Kal were defeated, he was rebuilt with the rest of the Matoran, into a form similar to the one he had had before being kept in a Matoran Sphere.[9]

Jaa was evacuated from Ko-Koro with the other Ko-Matoran following the Rahkshi's attack on the village.[10][11][12][13]

Return to Metru Nui

Jaa later helped in the construction of Boats to return to Metru Nui.[3] At the city, he participated in the widespread work required to rebuild the damaged metropolis. He temporarily stopped his work of reconstruction on order of Jaller, to force the Turaga to reveal where the Toa Nuva had gone, but he eventually got back to work.[14]

After Teridax was killed by Mata Nui, Jaa and the other Matoran exited the damaged Great Spirit Robot to live on Spherus Magna.[15][16]
