Poison
"No, he is not the brightest mask in the storehouse, but Poison does have his uses to the Dark Hunters. For one, he has a ferocious hatred of Matoran, arising from the fact that his species were hunted to near extinction by the little fools. For another, he exhibits unquestioning loyalty to me. After all, thoughts of rebellion require a brain, do they not?"

Biography
The majority of Poison's species were wiped out by Matoran, and Poison has grown to hate them.
More than 1,001 years ago, Poison attacked a Matoran settlement, and was almost defeated by the local Toa. Dark Hunters who had witnessed the fight brought Poison to Odina, where they discovered that he had not been using his venom. Nidhiki then taught him how to use his powers.[1]
After the Mata Nui Robot was critically damaged in the Battle of Bara Magna, Poison emigrated from the Matoran Universe to Spherus Magna.[2][3]
Abilities and Traits
As his name suggests, Poison has a storage of paralyzing venom, which, if not treated within half an hour, will kill the victim. Despite storing it in his own body, Poison is not immune to his own venom.
Many Toa underestimate Poison due to his Rahi-like appearance, though he is actually much more powerful and dangerous than the average Rahi.
Poison has a tail that can deliver a powerful stun to an opponent.[1]
Trivia
- Poison was created by Isaac Evavold, submitted to the LEGO Magazine Dark Hunter Building Challenge, and was given a storyline role and place in the book BIONICLE: Dark Hunters, by Greg Farshtey.
- The image for Poison published in BIONICLE: Dark Hunters was mirrored, as evidenced by the molding on the Fire Greatsword pieces used for the model's wings. The image was later corrected in BIONICLE: Encyclopedia Updated. The image at the top of this article originated from BIONICLE: Dark Hunters but has been flipped to its correct orientation.
