Toa/Dark Hunter War

The Toa/Dark Hunter War was a large-scale battle that took place a short time before The Great Cataclysm and the fall of Metru Nui. The combatants were the Toa, representing the majority of the Matoran, and the Dark Hunters, an organization of Bounty hunters, assassins, and spies headed by The Shadowed One. The war was instigated when the request from the Shadowed One to build a Dark Hunter base in the city of Metru Nui was aggressively turned down by Turaga Dume. Notable participants in this war included Toa Lhikan and the Dark Hunter Nidhiki.
