Spirit Star

A Spirit Star is a star that represents the spirit of a Toa. As long as the star burns in the sky, the Toa it represents is alive. It would correspond to the color of the Toa's Element (i.e. brown star for a Toa of Stone) Only a Toa that has done a great deed can get a Spirit Star. Lhikan's Spirit Star split into six others representing the Toa Metru in the Metru Nui sky, while six above Mata Nui were believed to represent the Toa Mata. The Toa Inika had Spirit Stars as well.

Only Toa may have a Spirit Star. These are actually just red dots of energy inside Mata Nui's body in the Matoran Universe. How it appears in unknown, but needless to say, they are not actual stars.
