Velika

"When the Muaka roars, do not look for the Stone Rat."

- One of Velika's proverbs

Velika was a Po-Matoran of Voya Nui. A master crafter and inventor, Velika designed elaborate equipment for use by the Voya Nui Resistance Team. Although wise, his habit of speaking in riddles and epigrams made it hard for many to understand him, and was especially annoying to Kazi. He also was one of the Matoran who worked to build the Piraka Stronghold.

Velika carried twin Power Carvers that used energy to cut through or craft things. Velika used them to invent devices for the Resistance Team.

Velika found a pool of Energized Protodermis and the Toa Inika used it to fill their Zamor Spheres. Also the Toa Inika got their Zamor Launchers from Velika. The Matoran stole one from the Piraka and Velika used the design to create copies of it. They got in an eventually found the Toa Nuva just after the final battle between Vezon and the Inika. Afterwards, Axonn gathered the Matoran and headed into the Nui Caves in order to survive Voya Nui's descent while the Toa Mahri brought the Mahri Nui Matoran up The Cord. He and his friends are now safely on the Southern Continent.

The kingdom
In the short story 'The Kingdom' he was chosen by Takanuva to become a toa of stone.
