Balta

Balta was Garan's best friend and right hand Matoran. He was also close friends with Dalu. He was skilled with technology, but was more apt to make small, practical devices. He was able to improvise with whatever was at hand - he could take any pile of discarded equipment and turn it into a device or weapon with ease!

When crossed, his Twin Repellers could repel any attack made against him, causing the attacker to be hit with an equal force. He used them on Thok once, when cornered by the Piraka. He also did the same with Hakann. Balta and his friends had faced the Piraka also helping the Toa Inika, and freeing the Toa Nuva. Afterwards, Axonn summoned the entire Matoran population of Voya Nui, and lead them into the Nui Caves in preparation for the descent of Voya Nui to the Southern Continent after the Toa Mahri destroyed The Cord. He is currently with the other Matoran of Voya Nui, in the Southern Continent, renewing their lives there.
