The Official BIONICLE Website in 2003 continued to host many of the features and content introduced in 2002, namely its story updates section, its character descriptions, and its animations, in addition to hosting Mata Nui Online Game 2. The first half of the year centered around the Bohrok-Kal storyline, whereas the latter half promoted the Rahkshi and Mask of Light storyline, along with the first BIONICLE movie, BIONICLE: Mask of Light.
Text Content
In the first half of the year, the site centered around the Bohrok-Kal storyline, adding a Bios section for the Bohrok-Kal and a section for the Krana-Kal. Later on, the site also added additional Bios for supporting Matoran characters previously introduced in the online animations: Takua, Hahli, and all of the Turaga's left-hand Matoran. The site had the following structure:

Hafu
Matoran from Po-Koro
Hafu is a master stone-carver. Some villagers – not the least of which is Hafu himself – call him the greatest craftsman that Mata Nui has ever known. He is a talented storyteller, but his favored topics tend to be his own genius and great achievements. The other Po-Koro Matoran do their best to ignore his arrogance because they are so fond of their master carver.
Location: Po-Koro
Jala
See Official BIONICLE Website (2002)#Jala.
Takua
Matoran from Ta-Koro
Takua has led a singularly adventurous life for a Matoran. It was he who gathered the stones that summoned the Toa to Mata Nui, and he was present at both Makuta’s defeat and the awakening of the Bohrok. Due to his knack - some would say ill luck - for being present at most of the island’s major triumphs and catastrophes, he has been appointed the official Chronicler of Mata Nui, charged with the task of recording significant events as they unfold. Takua is brave and loyal to his friends, but he can be reckless and even irresponsible in his pursuit of new adventures.
Location: Ta-Koro
Kapura
Matoran from Ta-Koro
Kapura is considered by some in Ta-Koro to be slightly slow, but Vakama has great confidence in the odd little Matoran and has appointed him to stand at his left side. Through the Turaga’s wisdom and lots of practice, Kapura has learned the secret art of covering large distances very quickly by walking very slowly. His slow and deliberate way always remains true to his purpose and he is surprisingly thoughtful, contributing simple but profound wisdom from time to time.
Location: Ta-Koro
Kongu
See Official BIONICLE Website (2002)#Kongu.
Tamaru
Matoran from Le-Koro
Tamaru speaks so quickly that he often bewilders even his fellow Le-Koro Matoran, yet somehow he remembers almost everything that he hears. The only thing faster than his speech is his speed at vine-swinging through the tall trees of his jungle home, a skill that helps to make up for his lack of ability as a pilot or navigator. His greatest dream is to fly a Kahu, but unfortunately he is quite afraid of heights.
Location: Le-Koro
Maku
See Official BIONICLE Website (2002)#Maku.
Kotu
Matoran from Ga-Koro
Kotu has a sharp mind and a quick, witty sense of humor. Her skills at practical jokes are unequaled in Ga-Koro, where almost everyone has fallen victim to one of her pranks. She helps her best friend Maku play jokes on Huki and is a skilled Koli player. Kotu has the important job of tending to Rahi that have been freed from Makuta’s control.
Location: Ga-Koro
Hahli
Matoran from Ga-Koro
Hahli spends most of her time tending to her many chores in Ga-Koro. She sees herself as only a simple fish-catcher and net-mender, never daring to dream of adventure beyond the shores of her village. Although full of ideas, Hahli is too shy to speak them out loud, and she is often forgotten or overlooked by her fellow Ga-Matoran. Little does Hahli know, but Nokama has glimpsed her true potential and has great plans for the simple net-mender.
Location: Ga-Koro
Matoro
See Official BIONICLE Website (2002)#Matoro.
Kopeke
Matoran from Ko-Koro
Kopeke rarely speaks and is often considered aloof, but his courage and loyalty are unquestioned. The bridge shrines that he carves from ice are some of the most beautifully crafted tributes to Kopaka ever created. He knows the icy slopes of Mount Ihu better than any Matoran and is always on the lookout for suspicious strangers. He is famed as one of the greatest Huai Snowball Sling skaters of all time and has recently begun to train in the new form of Koli.
Location: Ko-Koro
Onepu
See Official BIONICLE Website (2002)#Onepu.
Taipu
Matoran from Onu-Koro
Taipu may appear small, but his compact body holds incredible strength and he can lift many times his own weight. He is enthralled by tales of other lands and yearns to explore all of Mata Nui. He may be a little clumsy, but he is always eager to help. If his friends need protection, Taipu can invariably be found at the front, usually tripping over his own feet to get there.
Location: Onu-Koro
Nuparu

Matoran (Updated)
The Matoran are the villagers of Mata Nui. Although small in stature, they are clever, loyal and brave. With the dark times finally past, their island home is enjoying a newfound age of peace and prosperity. To celebrate, the Matoran prepare for a great Kolhii tournament between all the villages.

Jaller
Matoran from Ta-Koro
With his strong sense of duty, Jaller is the obvious choice to stand at Vakama's right side as Captain of the Ta-Koro Guard. He is dedicated, studious and respected by all the Matoran of Mata Nui. He takes his position on the Ta-Koro Kolhii team very seriously and spends his rare free moments in training. Although he is Takua's best friend, Jaller is sometimes exasperated by his teammate's lack of responsibility.

Takua
Taken from http://www.oafe.net/yo/biontp.php
Takua has led a singularly adventurous life for a Matoran. Due to his knack - some would say misfortune - for being present at most of the island's major events, he has been made the official Chronicler of Mata Nui, charged with recording history as it unfolds. He would rather observe important events than participate in them and often acts irresponsibly toward his duties. Despite his faults, Takua is a good and loyal friend, especially to Jaller and the faithful Ussal crab Pewku.
Macku
Matoran from Ga-Koro
Macku lives in the floating village of Ga-Koro. Her skill at canoe racing is legendary and her sense of direction is flawless - she can navigate through the waters surrounding Mata Nui in even the worst conditions. Her athletic ability has made her a natural at Kolhii, and her good friend Hewkii is always willing to give her pointers to help improve her game.
Location: Ga-Koro
Hahli
Matoran from Ga-Koro
Once a humble assistant flax-maker, Hahli has discovered a newfound confidence since she was unexpectedly chosen by Nokama to play on Ga-Koro's Kolhii team. Although new to the game, she is learning fast and displays a remarkable talent. Always full of ideas, Hahli envies Takua's freedom to wander and secretly longs to explore Mata Nui like the Chronicler - especially if it means getting to spend more time with Guard Captain Jaller.
Location: Ga-Koro
Matoro
Matoran from Ko-Koro
Matoro is the interpreter of Nuju's mystical stories, the only Matoran who can follow the meaning of the legend-keeper's movements and musical tones. He has been chosen to lead Ko-Koro's Kolhii team, a task that he takes very seriously. When once he hunted Rahi in the frozen drifts of Mount Ihu, Matoro now trains night and day to bring honor to his village and his team. He considers himself an ambassador from isolated Ko-Koro to the rest of the villages and is proud of his duties - a little too proud at times, if you ask some of his fellow villagers.
Location: Ko-Koro
Kopeke
Matoran from Ko-Koro
Kopeke rarely speaks and is considered aloof, but his courage and loyalty are known to all. The bridge shrines that he carves from ice are some of the most beautifully crafted tributes to Kopaka ever created. His solitary and suspicious nature makes him an unusual choice for Ko-Koro's Kolhii team, but his skill at Huai Snowball Sling gives him him an unerring aim and sense of timing. Kopeke's Kanohi mask was recently damaged during Kolhii practice and he has taken to wearing a new one in honor of Turaga Nuju.
Location: Ko-Koro
Hewkii
Matoran from Po-Koro
Hewkii, who stands at Onewa's right, lives in the desert village of Po-Koro. He is the greatest Kolhii scorer of all time, a recipient of the Copper Mask of Victory and one of the few Matoran with the ability to crush boulders with both his feet and his head. Hewkii accidentally invented the newest form of Kolhii while rescuing Macku during the Bohrok siege. In return, she is determined to teach the Kolhii champion to swim - whether he wants to or not!
Location: Po-Koro
Hafu
Matoran from Po-Koro
Hafu is a master stone-carver. Some villagers - not the least of which is Hafu himself - call him the greatest craftsman that Mata Nui has ever known. He is a talented storyteller, but his favored topics tend to be his own genius and great achievements, and he will talk all day and night about his latest Kolhii feats. Hafu often attempts to outdo Hewkii, who tolerates his teammate's showmanship with good humor. The other Po-Koro Matoran are fond of their master carver and do their best to ignore his arrogance.
Location: Po-Koro
Takanuva
Ancient Matoran legends speak of a mysterious Seventh Toa, who will free the island of Mata Nui from darkness. The signs of his coming are said to be the discovery of the Mask of Light and the appearance of a seventh star in the sky. Now both those events have taken place, and Takanuva walks the surface of Mata Nui at last!
Mask: Kanohi Avohkii
The Toa of Light wears the Kanohi Avohkii, which can project powerful beams of light energy and banish the shadows. The Avohkii brings understanding, turning anger to peace and enemies into allies. His destiny is to challenge Makuta, master of shadows, and lead the Matoran out of the darkness and into the light.
Takanuva carries the Kolhii Staff of Light, and rides the Ussanui, a sleek vehicle made from parts of Rahkshi and Bohrok-Kal. The Ussanui is powered by kraata and can find its way to Makuta wherever he may be.
Makuta
It is said that in the time before time, the dark spirit Makuta grew jealous of his brother Mata Nui and cast him into a deep sleep. As the Makuta's shadow fell across the land, the ancient values of the Matoran began to be forgotten. He corrupted the creatures of the island and awoke the destructive Bohrok swarms. From his own essence he created the kraata, slug-like creatures that spread his infection and control to whatever they touch. Makuta has taken many shapes to deceive the Matoran and the Toa, but in his favored form, he is a hulking and powerful being of pure darkness who carries an immense double-bladed staff.
Mask: Kanohi Kraahkan
Makuta wears the Kanohi Kraahkan, the Mask of Shadows, which can turn friend into foe and bring fear to the heart of the bravest champion.
Even the six Toa Nuva may not be able to put an end to Makuta's darkness alone.

Bohrok-Kal
Only the Toa Nuva can stop the Bohrok-Kal from releasing the Bahrag and the raising the Bohrok Swarm. But the Toa Nuva face their greatest danger yet when the Bohrok-Kal steal their symbols, and with them, their elemental powers!
Scrollover Texts:
- Quick as flickering flame, Tahnok-Kal controls the forces of electricity.
- Fluid as water, Gahlok-Kal manipulates the force of magnetism.
- Solitary and cold, Kohrak-Kal strikes with a devastating sonic blast.
- Steadfast as the earth, Nuhvok-Kal commands the crushing might of gravity.
- Master of the swamp, Lehvak-Kal wields the awesome power of vacuum.
- Powerhouse of stone, Pahrak-Kal uses plasma to melt through obstacles.
Tahnok-Kal
Bohrok-Kal of Electricity
Tahnok-Kal is fast and powerful, and usually acts as the leader of a Bohrok-Kal squad. Its reflexes are incredibly swift, making it appear short-tempered to those who see it in action. Some have said the Tahnok-Kal is truly as fast as the lightning it controls.
Tahnok-Kal controls the forces of electricity via his power shield. The shield can use energy for defense or fire lightning bolts at an opponent.
Location: Ta-Koro
Krana: Tahnok Bo-Kal, Tahnok Su-Kal, Tahnok Ja-Kal, Tahnok Yo-Kal, Tahnok Ca-Kal, Tahnok Vu-Kal, Tahnok Za-Kal, Tahnok Xa-Kal
Gahlok-Kal
Bohrok-Kal of Magnetism
Like water itself, Gahlok-Kal is hard to catch. Its surface is designed to make it difficult to grasp, and it can “flow” around obstacles when need be. Gahlok-Kal is stealthy as well, able to sneak in and out of a Matoran village without ever being seen or heard.
Gahlok-Kal’s tool is a magnetic shield. This collects, controls and directs the power of magnetism from the earth – which can be employed as a defensive force field against attack, or be used as a formidable defensive weapon. The shield is also use for a variety of mundane tasks, such as shattering magnetic rock.

Krana: Gahlok Bo-Kal, Gahlok Su-Kal, Gahlok Ja-Kal, Gahlok Yo-Kal, Gahlok Ca-Kal, Gahlok Vu-Kal, Gahlok Za-Kal, Gahlok Xa-Kal
Kohrak-Kal
Bohrok-Kal of Sonics
Kohrak-Kal tends to work alone more than any other Bohrok-Kal. The reason may be that its sonic powers are so great, they are even a threat to its comrades. In fact, the Kohrak-Kal is so awesome that its krana can afford to ignore danger until the very last moment, then react swiftly and with overpowering effect.
Kohrak-Kal’s tool is a sonic shield. It can change its rate of vibration almost instantly, forming a dense sonic barrier that can repel most forms of attack. It is even more impressive when used in attack mode--bursts of sonic emanations can deafen an opponent or if used at higher intensity can cause almost any target to stress and shatter.

Nuhvok-Kal
Bohrok-Kal of Gravity
The Nuhvok-Kal sacrifices speed for sheer power. Its gravity shield makes it one of the most dangerous Bohrok-Kal, but it seems to be in no hurry to fight. Perhaps the reason is that as soon as it brings its gravity shield into play, the struggle is over in seconds..
The Nuhvok-Kal’s gravity shield has the dual ability to negate gravity (so that its target becomes lighter than air and starts to float away), or intensify gravity (so that its target becomes much more dense, and sinks into the ground). To be sure of defeating Nuhvok-Kal, the Toa Nuva should face him only above ground.

Krana: Nuhvok Bo-Kal, Nuhvok Su-Kal, Nuhvok Ja-Kal, Nuhvok Yo-Kal, Nuhvok Ca-Kal, Nuhvok Vu-Kal, Nuhvok Za-Kal, Nuhvok Xa-Kal
Lehvak-Kal
Bohrok-Kal of Vacuum
Lehvak-Kal is the fastest and most unpredictable Bohrok-Kal. Its vacuum shield gives it two powerful modes of defense, and there is no way for a Toa Nuva to know which it will choose. Lehvak-Kal makes full use of the terrain, and can disappear into the jungle in an instant.
Lehvak-Kal’s vacuum shield can suck all the air out of a given area, causing a destructive implosion. It can then release the evacuated air in a single blast that has the power to smash through solid rock.
Location: Onu-Koro [sic]
Krana: Lehvak Bo-Kal, Lehvak Su-Kal, Lehvak Ja-Kal, Lehvak Yo-Kal, Lehvak Ca-Kal, Lehvak Vu-Kal, Lehvak Za-Kal, Lehvak Xa-Kal
Pahrak-Kal
Bohrok-Kal of Plasma
Pahrak-Kal is a slow-moving powerhouse. Although it would seem this Bohrok-Kal would be easy to evade, that is not so. The Pahrak-Kal is a powerhouse that can plow through any obstacle on its way to its goal.
Pahrak-Kal’s tool is a plasma shield. It has the power to superheat any substance until it becomes plasmodia. This makes him a fast and effective tunneller. The shield can also be used defensively, to turn any incoming missile or attack into a roiling mass of plasma. More terrifyingly, it can be used as an offensive weapon, to turn any obstacle into a molten mass.

Rahkshi
Makuta has unleashed these powerful creatures on Mata Nui, with a single mission: find the Mask of Light and prevent the coming of the Seventh Toa!
Scrollover texts:
- Panrahk can shatter any obstacle in his path.
- Guurahk can turn rocks to rubble!
- Lerahk is the bringer of poison!
- Kurahk turns allies against each other!
- Turahk fills heroes’ hearts with fear!
- Vorahk drains the power of the Toa Nuva!
Panrahk
Panrahk
The Panrahk is strong, exceptionally fast, and possessed of incredible endurance. But his true power lies in his staff, which can cause objects to fly apart with a mere touch. It can also be used to cause explosions at a distance. Even the strongest koro walls cannot long stand against Panrahk’s raw power! As he walks, the soil beneath his feet blows apart in a series of small explosions – these sounds serve as warning to the Matoran of this Rahkshi’s approach.
Location: Po-Koro
Guurahk
Guurahk
When Guurahk uses his tool, a web of cracks appears in his target, and eventually it collapses to the ground. But the staff would mean nothing without Guurahk’s skill at divining an opponent’s weak spot -- he is able to spot the stress point in any structure or the weakness in any foe and target it immediately.Guurahk’s staff emits a powerful cone of energy which can disintegrate whatever it strikes. When Guurahk uses his tool, a web of cracks appears in his target, and eventually it collapses to the ground. But the staff would mean nothing without Guurahk’s skill at divining an opponent’s weak spot -- he is able to spot the stress point in any structure or the weakness in any foe and target it immediately.
Location: Ga-Koro
Lerahk
Lerahk
Although not a cunning planner, Lerahk more than makes up for what he lacks in intelligence with sheer power. The touch of his staff can poison anything – plants, animals, soil, or any foe he might choose. Unlike Guurahk and Panrahk, his power does not work over distance – he must physically touch his target.
Location: Le-Koro
Kurahk
Kurahk
Though he is fast and strong enough to down any foe, Kurahk prefers to make his opponents turn against each other. His Staff of Power fire rings of anger, which can cause his target to become consumed by rage. Even the Toa Nuva are not immune to his power, which magnifies any difference of opinion into an all-out physical conflict.
Location: Ko-Koro
Turahk
Turahk
Turahk is the master of fear. Using his staff, he can induce anything from slight unease to complete terror in his foes. A being struck by Turahk’s energies will either run in panic or remain rooted to the spot in sheer terror. Turahk’s power is particularly disturbing to the Toa Nuva, heroes who have rarely known fear.
Location: Ta-Koro
Vorahk
Vorahk
The Rahkshi called Vorahk has an insatiable hunger for power. Using his staff, he can drain the energy from an opponent and add it to his own. As his foes grow weaker, he grows stronger, until nothing can stand against him.

Theft of Fire
Toa Nuva’s symbol stolen!
By Takua Just as we thought the threat of the swarms was finally over, a new danger has emerged from the darkness. In a daring raid on Ta-Koro, Tahu Nuva’s symbol of power has been stolen, and with it the Toa’s control over the element of fire.
The thief approached the Ta-Suva by stealth, incapacitating the Matoran on watch with some sort of electrical field. As the Ta-Koro Guard looked on helplessly, the creature – like a Bohrok in appearance, but far more powerful than any that we have encountered before – took Tahu’s symbol from the shrine and leapt away.
“I have rarely felt so powerless,” said Guard Captain Jala, “as when that…thing stood gloating before me with Tahu’s symbol in its grasp, and I could do nothing to stop it.”
Tahu Nuva appeared to block the beast’s path, but it brought down a shower of stones upon him. The onlookers’ relief at the Toa’s arrival turned to dismay as mighty Tahu summoned his blazing elemental energies – and was buried beneath the rubble as his flame failed to appear.
What does the appearance of this terrible new creature bode for Mata Nui, and what has become of the Toa Nuva of Fire?
Location: Ta-Koro
Out of Their Elements
Toa Nuva search for symbol thieves
By Takua The theft of Tahu Nuva’s symbol was just the start. Each village of Mata Nui has been the victim of a similar raid, with each Toa left diminished in its wake. Kopaka Nuva was nearly lost down a chasm, Tahu Nuva found himself buried beneath a hail of stones, and Gali Nuva was swept away by a giant wave that she had called forth only a moment before. Lewa, Onua and Pohatu too have suffered indignities thanks to the work of the mysterious Bohrok-Kal.
“I fell out of a tree!” said an embittered Lewa Nuva. “Me, of all beings! I nearly ended up neck-deep in that reeking swamp on the ground below. Stupid bugs.”
“It wasn’t fun,” was Pohatu Nuva’s only comment. “Frankly, I’d rather not talk about it any more.”
As they set out in pursuit of the Bohrok-Kal, some of the Toa were more introspective. “Our powers were increased greatly in the nest of the Bahrag,” Onua Nuva mused, “but they were also shackled to these symbols by some means. Now with the theft of the one, we have lost the other. It is a discomforting thing to ponder.”
“Thankfully, although they have lost some of their vibrancy, our masks still serve us,” Gali Nuva reported. “The Turaga believe that the event that transformed us and created our symbols may also have brought forth new Kanohi from Mata Nui. As we follow the creatures that have stolen our powers, we will seek these Kanohi Nuva and hope that they grant us the strength to protect our villages once more.”
Location: Ta-Koro
Desert Showdown
Disaster in the sands for the Toa Nuva
By Takua The Toa had tracked the thieves of their symbols all across Mata Nui, returning at last to the sandy expanse of Po-Wahi. Deep in the desert, they finally caught up with the mysterious Bohrok-Kal.
The creatures’ eyes glowed with a cunning intelligence. Their gleaming shells bore reptilian patterns surrounding strange symbols. They raised their shields and, incredibly, they spoke!
“We are the Bohrok-Kal,” said one in a voice like metal scraping stone. “We search for Cahdok and Gahdok, queens of the swarms.”
“Tell us where you have hidden the Bahrag and then stand aside,” said another, “We have no wish to harm helpless foes.”
Angered by their tone, Lewa Nuva leaped into action, but the impulsive Toa of Air found himself pinned in place by the magnetic force of Gahlok-Kal. Onua Nuva tried to end the battle with a single blow, but Pahrok-Kal’s plasma held him at bay. As Tahu Nuva attempted to protect his fellow Toa with the Mask of Shielding, Nuhvok-Kal’s mastery of gravity sent him crashing to the ground. Then the Bohrok-Kal turned the full force of their powers on the heroes of Mata Nui.
When the Toa Nuva awakened, the creatures were gone.
“This was one of those look-before-you-leap things, wasn’t it?” said Lewa Nuva. “I guess I’m still mad about the tree. Stupid bugs.”
Kopaka Nuva’s mood was predictably cold. “If they free the Bahrag, the swarms will return to their mission. We cannot allow this to happen.”
“The Bohrok-Kal faced us together, while we stood apart,” said Gali Nuva sadly. “This is what I feared when we went our separate ways. As powerful as we became, it is in our unity that our true strength lies.”
Now the quest of the Toa Nuva has become even more desperate. They must find the Bahrag, defeat the Bohrok-Kal and end the threat of the swarms for good – all without the aid of their elemental powers!
Location: Po-Koro
Defeat of the Bohrok-Kal
The Toa Nuva Triumph Again!
By Takua By the time the Toa reached the lair of the Bahrag, the Bohrok-Kal had already arrived – and departed. They had melted through the floor to the cave below, where the Queens had been trapped since their defeat. Strangely, the Bahrag were being guarded by the Exo-Toa. How and why the Exo-Toa came to be there would remain a mystery, for the powerful devices were swiftly defeated by the might of the Bohrok-Kal.
To free the Queens, the Bohrok-Kal needed to touch Cahdok and Gahdok with their krana Xa-Kal and place the stolen Nuva symbols upon the cube in the cavern’s center. When the Toa Nuva arrived, the Kal had already completed the first part of their task!
The Toa Nuva quickly used their secret weapon: the Vahi, the Great Mask of Time. Using the Vahi is very dangerous, and Tahu knew that if he lost control, it could mean the unbinding of all reality. Time slowed, but the Bohrok-Kal were protected by a powerful energy field and could not be harmed. Acting fast, the Toa Nuva took one last gamble and channelled their energy through their symbols, straight into the Kal.
Energized by the elemental strength of the Toa, the Bohrok-Kal’s powers raged out of control, incapacitating or destroying their unliving shells. The krana-Kal yet lived, but without their Bohrok hosts, they were no longer a threat. The Bahrag remained imprisoned, and the Swarms would not be unleashed this day.
As the Toa Nuva reclaimed their symbols, they felt their powers surge through them once more. They made their way to the surface and prepared to return to their villages. Another threat to Mata Nui had been defeated!

Naming Day
Honoring the heroes of Ga-Koro
By Takua Mata Nui has bestowed a great gift upon his people. Through the teachings of the Turaga, the Matoran have been transformed, becoming stronger and more agile, better able to defend their villages from danger. As all the villagers of Mata Nui gathered around the Kini-Nui, the Turaga made a momentous announcement.
“Brave Matoran,” began Nokama. “You have weathered a time of challenges with courage, spirit and unity. We wish especially to recognize those who stood against the Bohrok in the final battle against the swarms. In the face of darkness, you were a beacon of light for us all.”
Vakama raised his staff. “The defenders of Ga-Koro shall receive a special honor. Even as the Toa became the Toa Nuva, so too will these heroes have new names when their tale is carved in the chronicles.”
Jala was the first to be called. “Captain of the Ta-Koro Guard,” Vakama declared with pride. “Your valor and dedication to duty are an example to all. When your name is inscribed upon the Wall of History, you shall be known as Jaller.”
As the crowd cheered, Huki of Po-Koro and Maku of Ga-Koro too were granted new names. For their deeds at Ga-Koro, they will be known henceforth as Hewkii and Macku.
At last, Vakama called one final name. “Chronicler Takua…”
“Inscribe these names upon the Wall of History, as is your duty,” said Vakama sternly. “And try to spell them correctly.”
Now it is a time of great festivity and celebration. Matoran from all across Mata Nui gather in Po-Koro to exchange gifts and goods and to play in the village tournaments. After much consultation with Pohatu Nuva, Turaga Onewa has announced that the new form of Koli, played with Ga-Koro net-staffs, is to become the official Po-Koro sport of Kolhii.
As for Takua the Chronicler, who it seems shall forever remain only Takua the Chronicler, he too has held a small ceremony of naming. From this day forward, whenever her deeds are written on the great Wall of History, the faithful Ussal crab Puku shall be known by the name of Pewku.

Kraata
Unfortunately, the original text of this section is not available in web archives; the Flash object which described the various types and power-levels of the Kraata was online for only a few months, and its textual content was loaded through a separate XML file which web crawlers at the time failed to detect. However, fan-made projects exist (namely, here) which appear to include all of the text that was originally used. Below is a re-construction of this section based on those sources, and the descriptions most likely match the original text exactly. The names of the Kraata colors come from the original Flash object.
| Stage | Description |
|---|---|
| Stage 1 | A first-stage Kraata is driven completely by instinct. With no real mind of its own, it slithers through the deepest, darkest places of Mata Nui, eternally compelled to seek out masks to infect. |
| Stage 2 | A second-stage Kraata has little intelligence to speak of, but knows enough to flee from danger and avoid the light. Kraata at this stage often make their homes in the marshy depths of the Le-Wahi swamp. |
| Stage 3 | A third-stage Kraata is capable of evading capture and defending itself with its powers if cornered. Many of these Kraata lurk in the crevices of Mata Nui’s caves and tunnels, waiting to infect the masks of passing beings. |
| Stage 4 | A fourth-stage Kraata can evade traps and even withstand the sunlight for a short while. These Kraata are shrewd enough to know of Matoran and are known to spring from ambush in an attempt to infect a mask. |
| Stage 5 | A fifth-stage Kraata has developed its powers and knows how and when to use them best. These Kraata know the Makuta’s will and actively seek out Matoran masks to infect. |
| Stage 6 | A sixth-stage Kraata is fully aware of its mission and in control of its powers. Kraata at this stage are in constant communication with the Makuta and carry out its bidding with cunning and skill. |
| Stage 7 | It is rumoured that a seventh-stage Kraata exists, capable of infecting masks from a distance and known in whispers as the Shadow Kraata. If the stories are true, this Kraata must be the most intelligent and powerful of all the Makuta's servants, save the Rahkshi themselves. (purple-colored) (This text appears in the fan-made material but may not have been in the original Kraata section.) |
