Krekka

"You fool!"

- Nidhiki to Krekka, BIONICLE 2: Legends of Metru Nui

Krekka was a member of a middle-class species on Stelt, and later joined the Dark Hunters.

History
Originally living on the island of Stelt, Krekka left after a run-in with Makuta Gorast, which resulted in him losing one eye. He traveled from island to island and eventually was recruited by the Dark Hunters. He was soon paired with the more-intelligent Nidhiki. During one of their first trials, they served the Brotherhood of Makuta in defending the Avohkii.

On their last mission, Nidhiki and Krekka kidnapped Toa Lhikan and tried to stop the Toa Metru/Toa Hordika from finding the six Great Kanoka Disks. Nidhiki blackmailed one of the Matoran, Ahkmou, into helping him get the Great Disks, but this failed as the Toa Metru  were able to get to them first. Later, Krekka and Nidhiki ambushed the Toa. In the end, Teridax faced the Toa and absorbed the two Dark Hunters (including Nivawk) into his body to increase his power, killing them.

Because he died in this fashion, Krekka couldn't be revived on the Red Star.

Personality and Traits
Krekka was unintelligent, but made up for his stupidity with sheer brute strength which was his greatest attribute. He excelled in combat, and was smart enough to leave the planning to those who knew what they were doing. His trainer, Nidhiki, was extremely annoyed with him, and was reluctantly teamed up with him during the mission to sabotage Zamor spheres.

Krekka could fire energy nets. He also had a shoulder-mounted Kanoka Disk Launcher.
