Shadow Matoran



Shadow Matoran were Matoran who had all Light drained out of them by Shadow Leeches. They became corrupt and evil, and gained the ability to fire bolts of shadow energy (it is unknown if only corrupted Av-Matoran have this ability or if any Shadow Matoran can). If a corrupted Matoran became a Toa, they would control the element of Shadow.

Known Shadow Matoran

 * Radiak (formerly an Av-Matoran)
 * Gavla (formerly an Av-Matoran)
 * Kirop (formerly an Av-Matoran)
 * Vican (formerly a Le-Matoran)
 * Vultraz (either formerly Av-Matoran or Ta-Matoran)
 * Mazeka? (if Mazeka is a Shadow Matoran perhaps he or she was formerly an Av-Matoran) it is believed he or she will betray the brotherhood!
 * There were apparently many more Shadow Matoran in Karda Nui, but these four were the only ones released as sets at the moment. The LEGO company will release one or two more Shadow Matoran in Summer 2008 (Vultraz and maybe Mazeka).

Trivia

 * All Shadow Matoran seen so far have been paired with a Makuta. Radiak was paired with Antroz, Gavla with Vamprah, Kirop with Chirox and Vican with Mutran.
