The Miru Nuva is the Kanohi Nuva Mask of Levitation, one of six masks that may only be wielded by the Toa Nuva. Miru Nuva can be formed using the Mask of Creation[2] or by dipping a destined Kanohi Miru in Energized Protodermis.[3] Great Miru Nuva allow their users and select others nearby to float and glide on air,[4][1] while their Noble counterparts possess less potent abilities. When combined with the power of a Kakama Nuva, these masks can allow users to levitate upward at high speeds.[5][note 1]
