Kivoda

Kivoda was the Protector of Water and the chief of the villagers who resided underwater on Okoto.

Biography
Kivoda inherited the position of defending a village in Okoto's Region of Water from his father. He was also told of the Prophecy of Heroes, which his ancestors had learned from the Mask Maker Ekimu after his battle with Makuta, to be recited in times of peril.

Skull Spiders began to menace Okoto. When the stars aligned, as foretold by the Prophecy of Heroes, Kivoda joined the other Protectors at the Temple of Time and recited a prayer. Six Toa then fell from the sky onto Okoto. Kivoda sought out Gali and guided her through the Region of Water for weeks to find the Golden Mask of Water. At the mask's shrine, Kivoda held off a horde of Skull Spiders and was nearly overpowered, but Gali used the Golden Mask to overcome the Skull Spiders. She then departed for the City of the Mask Makers, a journey on which Kivoda informed her that he could not accompany her.

However, Kivoda soon traveled to the city and joined forces with the other Protectors, entering the city by an alternate route so as to come to the aid of the Toa if it were needed. In the process they came across the Region of Jungle archaeologist Harvali, confronted the Lord of Skull Spiders and his hordes, and fought and defeated a group of Skull Warriors. At long last-and in fulfillment of prophecy-they stood before the revived Ekimu, who briefly mistook them for their ancestors from a thousand years previously. They then celebrated the victory of the Toa and welcomed their villagers to the city, which by Ekimu's decree would become their new home.
