laser drill

The laser drill^{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}, also called the blaster drill^{8, 9}, was a drill-like weapon that served as Nuparu's Toa tool when he was a Toa Inika. Nuparu used it to channel and focus his elemental power of earth, which was laced with electricity due to his nature as a Toa Inika. The drill was filled with pure energy that caused it to glow when in use.^{10, 11, 12} It shot energy bolts, or pulses of energy^{2, 3}, that punched holes in solid matter.¹³

The laser drill materialized inside Nuparu's Toa canister when the Red Star transformed him into a Toa Inika.^{14, 15, note 1} Presumably, it later transformed into the aqua blaster blade when the Mask of Life transformed Nuparu into a Toa Mahri.¹⁶

Notes

• It has also been called a "laser-powered blaster drill."⁸
