Brotherhood of Makuta

The Brotherhood of Makuta was an organization made up of the Makuta species devoted to furthering their goals, good or evil.

History
The Brotherhood originally existed to create and alter beings as needed to keep the universe running smoothly. However, they eventually became corrupt, culminating in one member attacking the universe's guardian, the Great Spirit Mata Nui. The rest of the Brotherhood supported this attack, and are now working to fill the resulting power vacuum and become the world's rulers. The corruption was only revealed a thousand years ago in the Great Cataclysm, when Mata Nui finally fell unconscious from his injuries, and the Makuta who attacked him tried to brainwash the Matoran of Metru Nui into forgetting their Great Spirit.

The Brotherhood has been weakened considerably in the past thousand years. Due to actions taken in the Cataclysm, the Dark Hunters have declared war on the Brotherhood, and the Toa have taken advantage of the fighting to strike the Brotherhood whenever they can. However, the Brotherhood's master plan is still in effect: since the Matoran of Metru Nui escaped and met up with a team of Toa - Toa that weren't easily eliminated - Mata Nui will eventually be allowed to reawaken... and then a reign of darkness will be released such as no Matoran has ever imagined, even in their worst nightmare. It is unknown whether this plan takes into consideration the possible existence of such an organization as the Order of Mata Nui.

Members
All members of the Brotherhood are of a single race (also called Makuta), and have long since evolved past the point where they need physical bodies. As a result, they exist as masses of energy that merely inhabit and animate unliving armor. For some reason, Makuta armor is inherently tougher than solid Protodermis, though still not quite as strong as the hardest metal known, Protosteel.
