Agori

The Agori were biomechanical villagers in the desert world of Bara Magna, presumably the dominant species on that planet. There were five types of Agori, formerly six. The original six were the Fire Tribe, Water Tribe, Ice Tribe, Jungle Tribe, Rock Tribe, and Sand Tribe. After the disaster that hit Bara Magna 100,000 years before the awakening of Mata Nui, the Sand Tribe reverted to primitive, bestial Zesk. Similar to the Agori but a separate species were the Bone Hunters.

The Agori were very similar to Matoran; in fact, the Great Beings modeled Matoran after Agori. However, the Agori had no innate elemental power and all of their tribes had a mixed amount of males and females. Agori could live to be as old as Matoran, but could eat like humans do. It is unknown how they reproduced, but it is known that they did, unlike Matoran.

The five tribes stayed separate in cities such as Vulcanus, Roxtus, Iconus, Tesara, Tajun, and Atero. They fought with each other for resources with the use of Glatorian, but friendships between tribes were not frowned upon.

Before the disaster, Agori were much more advanced, but post-disaster, they were only good at fixing things, not creating new things. Tarduk and Berix looked for leftover remnants of ancient Agori technology buried in the deserts of Bara Magna.

As follows is a list of all known Agori:
 * Raanu, leader of the Fire Tribe.
 * Atakus, a guard of Roxtus and member of the Rock Tribe.
 * Berix, a member of the Water Tribe who searched for broken equipment to fix it.
 * Tarduk, a member of the Jungle Tribe who searched for lost treasure.
 * Metus, a member of the Ice Tribe who searched for a Glatorian to fight for his tribe in the Atero Arena matches.
