Norik

Norik was a Toa Hagah of Fire. He was later mutated into a Rahaga. Then he was turned back into the Toa Hagah of Fire.

Toa
Not much is known of Norik's life before his recruitment into the Toa Hagah. What is known was that he was active as a Toa for quite some time beforehand, operating as a member of another Toa team. Whether or not Norik was the leader of this team hasn't been revealed. When the Brotherhood of Makuta decided that Makuta Teridax needed Toa bodyguards, Norik was selected as representative Toa of Fire and made leader of the new team. He was endowed with metallic armor to indicate his status as an elite Toa and his former teammates presented him with his current Kanohi Pehkui as a badge of honor.

Toa Hagah
Norik was a Toa of Fire who wore platinum armor. He and the other Hagah were asigned as bodyguards for the Brotherhood of Makuta protecting him from attacks such as Rahi as Teridax didn't have the time. After dicovering the BoM's treachery, he led his team to rebell against the Brotherhood. This left him unprepared for the ambush, forcing him on a rescue mission to save his allies. He and Iruini breifly quit the team only to return so they could rescue the others. During that rescue mission, the two of them were mutated into Rahaga by Roodaka.

Rahaga
Norik’s fluid movements and soothing voice allowed him to charm reptilian Rahi. When he was close enough, he used his staff to distract the creatures and then trapped them with his snare spinner. Norik prefered to lead by doing, rather than talking, and appeared to be utterly fearless.

When the Rahaga were at the Great Temple looking for clues, Vakama came and captured all of the Rahaga except for Norik. Norik then helped Whenua, Matau, Nokama, Nuju, and Onewa find Keetongu. Later, in the battle at the Coliseum, Norik freed the rest of the Rahaga.

Norik and the rest of the Rahaga were transformed by Roodaka back into the Toa Hagah 1,000 years later, when the Toa Nuva needed help.

Powers, Mask, and Tools
As a Toa of Fire, Norik can create, control, and absorb heat and flame.

Norik's Kanohi is the Pekhui, which let him shrink to a minimum height of six inches while still maintaining his original level of strength. His Pehkui is carved in the shape of a Noble Kiril, but it was in honor of someone other than Turaga Dume (who also wore a Noble Kiril).

His main Toa Tool a Lava Spear, which can focus his elemental flame powers, as well as shoot a stream of lava (the latter was the spear's, not Norik's). He also carries a Rhotuka Launching Shield who's Rhotuka Spinners can slow down a target.

As a Rahaga Norik used a staff and snare Rhotuka.
