Toa Inika/Toa Mahri

Toa Inika are a Team of Toa from the Bionicle Legends.

History
Jaller and the other Matoran travel through the realm of Karzahni on their way to Voya Nui. In an attempt to have the Matoran discard their old identities, Karzahni had their Kanohi masks replaced with new ones. They are able to find some Toa Canisters to escape Karzahni's realm; and when they arrive on Voya Nui, the canisters are struck by lightning from the mysterious Red Star, turning them into Toa.

In examining their new bodies and tools, each of the new Toa begin instinctively activating their mask powers - which causes some chaos, as Nuparu is airborne, Kongu can't turn his telepathy off, Matoro seems to be dead and Hahli is talking to thin air; but eventually they get things under control.

They soon meet the few Matoran on the island that are still free, and learn of the situation: six beings calling themselves Piraka, under the names Thok, Hakann, Vezok, Zaktan, Avak and Reidak, have invaded and enslaved most of the Matoran in their quest to claim the Mask of Life for themselves, except a resistance made out of six Matoran: Balta, Kazi, Dalu, Garan, Piruk and Velika. The Piraka also have an ally, a giant named Brutaka, that has beaten the Toa Nuva and taken them captive. While Jaller and Hahli went to free some of the slaves with Zamor Launchers provided by the Matoran, Hewkii and Matoro were brought to another giant being named Axonn, only to find him badly beaten; Axonn tells them to stop Brutaka before it is too late. Meanwhile, Kongu and Nuparu raid the Piraka's stronghold looking for the Toa Nuva, but are unable to find them before they are caught. The other Toa Inika arrive just in time to help them fight, but two of the Piraka, Hakann and Thok, are able to steal Brutaka's power and they soundly defeat everyone else.

In order to stop them, the Toa form an uneasy alliance with the remaining Piraka to try and return Brutaka's power to him. Axonn also appears and gives Jaller a Zamor Sphere, stating that the Mask of Life needs protection; but he elects to stay behind and watch over the near-unconscious Brutaka. Meanwhile, Hakann and Thok have started fighting each other, and a massive explosion makes the two easy to find. In the ensuing fight, the Inika and Piraka have the upper hand when Hakann and Thok finally agree to work together, but even as they attack, Hewkii uses a specially-prepared Zamor Launcher to take their power and return it to Brutaka, who begins an "eternity-long fight." In the end, Zaktan is the only one still standing; Hakann and Thok fainting from the power loss and the rest having been knocked out by their attack.

The Toa Inika wake up to find the six Piraka already gone, and a long underground staircase exposed from the earlier explosion. Figuring that the stairs lead to the Mask of Life and that the Piraka have gone ahead of them, they decide to follow after them immediately, preparing to fight the guardians of the Mask of Life.
