Xia

"The sky rains fire...the grasses are filled with acid...and the rock itself tries to devour you."

- Roodaka

Xia is an island and the homeland of the Vortixx.

History
Home to a powerful war-like race called Vortixx, Xia is an environmentally devastated island that is dominated by Industrial production, serving as a massive producer of weapons that supply almost every organization in the Bionicle World. Xia is dominated by a large peak named "The Mountain".

Xia was initally ruled by Pridak as the most northeastern island under his rule. He saw the potential for Xia to be a mass manufacturer of weapons, and set it into motion. The island would eventually become one of the largest weapon manufacturers in the BIONICLE world. The island manufactured weapons such as war machines that were used by the Barraki who led the League. After the League was defeated by the Brotherhood of Makuta the island began to manufacture goods for the Brotherhood, who soon became it's largest customer. Later Roodaka would use the Visorak Battle Rams manufactured on the island to overtake Metru Nui. Xia still has a deal with the League of the Six Kingdoms, but not one based on the island.

Geography
Unlike Daxia, Odina or Destral, the residents of Xia keeps all of their sea routes available and clear of any obstacles. It can be reached by sailing out of the southern gate of Metru Nui, then steering North-West and following the dome. Xia can be spotted about 1 kio away. Recently, Xia tested it's newest weapons on a nearby island, blowing it apart to prevent it from being an obstacle to any Sea Route. Unfortunately, this caused a few exotic species of Rahi to be wiped out.
