Umarak

"That is Umarak, the hunter. He is an ancient one, and very, very dangerous."

-Ekimu on Umarak, Quest for Unity 

Umarak the Hunter is an unknown figure bent on hunting the Elemental Creatures. After stealing the Mask of Control and not following Makuta's orders, he put the mask on his face, causing Makuta to take control over him and transform him into Umarak the Destroyer.

History
Umarak has been around for as long as the Creatures, born from the shadows, his sole purpose is to hunt them and drain their powers.

Upon Makuta's orders, Umarak searched for the Mask of Control, which led the hunter to search for the Elemental Creatures, the only beings with knowledge of the mask's whereabouts.

While searching for Uxar in the Region of Jungle, the hunter was confronted by Lewa. The Toa was soon victorious, however not before Umarak united with Uxar and caught a glimpse of the Labyrinth where the Mask of Control was located. Makuta soon contacted the hunter, and the latter informed him that in order to find the Mask of Control, uniting with an Elemental Creature was essential.

Soon after, Umarak ambushed the Toa, and observed Pohatu and Ketar had the weakest bond of Toa and Creature, making the Creature of Stone his target. Once the Toa entered the Labyrinth of Control, Umarak gave pursuit and stalked them from the shadows. When the Toa entered the chamber the Mask of Control was hidden in, Pohatu stayed behind for a few moments, reluctant to unite with his creature. When the Toa of Stone did finally try unity, Umarak subdued him and forced Ketar in to unity, allowing the hunter to enter the chamber. After dealing with the Toa, the hunter secured the Mask of Control and fled the labyrinth. Pohatu gave pursuit, but, despite his best efforts, the Toa could only make one choice: Save Ketar from falling to its death, or stop Umarak. Pohatu did the latter, allowing Umarak to flee in the shadows.

Makuta contacted the hunter again, and the former informed Umarak that he would now serve the Mask Hoarder. Although he protested heavily, after donning the Mask of Control, Umarak fell under Makuta's control, and the former transformed in to the Destroyer.

Weapons and Abilities
Umarak can use shadows as gateways from place to place, summon darkness to restrain foes, and could summon Shadow Traps and duplicates of himself into battle.
