Gahlok-Kal

"You cannot stop us, we are the Bohrok-Kal. We cannot be stopped, we can only stop who is in our way."

- Gahlok-Kal to Gali Nuva

Gahlok-Kal was a Bohrok-Kal.

Early History
Gahlok-Kal was at one point an Av-Matoran. It later transformed into a Gahlok. It, at a later time, along with the rest of the Bohrok-Kal, was exposed to a mutagen substance, and was transformed by the substance. The transformation enabled Gahlok-Kal to think independently and speak, as well as granted it power over Magnetism. It then went into a dormant sleep until it was awakened to free the Bahrag.

Mata Nui
Gahlok-Kal was awakened shortly after the defeat of the Bahrag Sisters at the hands of the Toa Mata. It proceeded to steal Gali's Nuva Symbol. Gahlok-Kal, along with its fellow Bohrok-Kal, continued to search for the Bahrag, which they eventually found. As the Bohrok-Kal were completing their mission, Tahu Nuva used the Kanohi Vahi to slow their progress, and the Gahlok-Kal was flooded with power from Gali Nuva's Nuva symbol. It's magnetic abilities gone wild, Gahlok-Kal's metallic body turned into a strong magnet and pulled the remains of defeated Exo-Toa with such force that Gahlok-Kal's form was crushed on impact.

Characteristics
Gahlok-Kal is as hard to catch as water itself. It's surface is designed to make it difficult to grasp, and it can "flow" around obstacles when need be. Gahlok-Kal is stealthy as well, able to sneak in and out of a Matoran village without ever being seen or heard. Gahlok-Kal's tool is a magnetic shield which collects, controls and directs the power of magnetism from the earth. The magnetic field can be employed as a defensive force field against attack or as a formidable weapon. The shield is also use for a variety of mundane tasks, such as shattering magnetic rock. In the end, Gali Nuva's connection to her Nuva Symbol caused Gahlok-Kal's magnetic energies to attract the smashed Exo-Toa scrap, crushing Gahlok-Kal.
