Barraki

The Barraki were a band of six Warlords and their armies. The Barraki were banished to the Pit 80,000 years ago by Botar. After arriving, a mutagen in the water transformed them into sea creature mutants. They wanted the Ignika to restore them to their original forms so they could be reunited with their old armies. Each Barraki has their own army, consisting on the sea animal they are based on (Kalmah's army of Squids).

History
For the past 80,000 years the Barraki have been led by Pridak, in an organization called The League of the Six Kingdoms. Plotting to overthrow Mata Nui, they were caught and defeated by the Brotherhood of Makuta. Botar sent them to the Pit, where they stayed until it broke open 1,000 years ago during the Great Cataclysm. The Barraki built a fortress, but 300 years ago, Mahri Nui fell on and destroyed it, causing them (especially Ehlek) to be filled with rage at the Matoran. Since then, they have gradually attacked Matoran settlements, picking them off at leisure.
