Nokama

Nokama was the Toa of Water on Metru Nui and later the Turaga of Ga-Koro.

Toa Metru
Nokama is the Toa Metru of Water and guardian of Ga-Metru. Before becoming a Toa, Nokama was originally a teacher. Although she is now a heroine, she has not lost the habit of trying to instruct others. This is particularly annoying to Matau, who says she should listen more and “speak-teach” less. Nokama takes her responsibilities as a Toa very seriously, and believes they have a duty to the Great Spirit to meet any challenge. She does sometimes miss her old Matoran friends, though, who now do not seem to know how to act toward her.

Toa Hordika


Of all the Toa Hordika, Nokama is the most comfortable with her new form because of its connection to nature. She wasn't sure, for a time, if she wanted to be a Toa Metru again.

Turaga
As a Turaga, Nokama was allways telling people what the Turaga say they should keep secret, such as telling Jaller where the Toa Nuva went.

Powers and Abilities
Nokama as a Toa of Water had the ability to create or absorb water and manipulating it in almost any shape or form using elemental energy. After she became a Turaga she, like all Turaga, still had a tiny amount of that energy. As a Toa she carried two Hydro blades, which could pull her through the Protodermis canals at high speed. They were also strong enough to shatter solid rock, and could channel her power to control water. As a Toa Hordika she carried twin Fin barbs, which could dig through most substances and charge up her Water Rhotuka spinner. As a Turaga she now carries a trident made of bones of a Makuta fish and wares the Kanohi Rau, the Noble Mask of Translation, a weaker version of the Great Rau she carried as a Toa. The Great Rau allowed her to read ancient Matoran dialects and understand spoken languages, including those spoken by Rahi beasts.

Personality
Nokama is extremely wise and very resourceful, having once managed to defeat three Rahkshi single-handedly. She is very good at seeing the big picture, making connections between seemingly unrelated events and always manages to cool down the tempers of the other Turaga. She always listens to every side of an argument before giving a ruling, and is extremely logical, as she knows the dangers of unchecked emotion. Keeping secrets does not sit well with Nokama; she has been known to defy the other Turaga and tell things the others agreed to keep secret. Along with Onewa, she is the best tactician among their team.
