Dark Hunters

''Don't assume that all Dark Hunters are bitter ex-Toa like Nidhiki or bumbling masses of muscle like Krekka. Some of them would be enough to make my flesh crawl... if I had flesh.''

The Dark Hunters were an Organization of Bounty Hunters.

Overview
They were not exactly good or evil but rather amoral, taking any job that payed well enough. However, their practices were rather shadowy and violent, and they were often hired by evil groups such as the Brotherhood of Makuta. As such, they were often rightly considered villains. Dark Hunters were generally at least as powerful as heroic Toa, and almost every Hunter had a story of when they killed a Toa on a mission. The Dark Hunters were led by a mysterious figure only known as The Shadowed One, and commanded some mutant Rahi.

History
The Dark Hunters have been at the forefront of two major wars. The first was against the Toa: Turaga Dume had refused to let the Hunters build a base in Metru Nui so the Hunters attacked the city, and hundreds of Toa came to Metru Nui's defense. The war ended when Toa Nidhiki betrayed his brothers and helped the Dark Hunters set a trap, only Toa Lhikan found out and set a counter trap that defeated the Hunters.

Shortly after the Great Cataclysm, another war was declared against the Brotherhood of Makuta because Makuta had killed two Hunters, Nidhiki and Krekka. The war has lasted for a thousand years and is still ongoing. The Dark Hunters have fought using guerrilla war tactics compared to the larger armies used by the Brotherhood of Makuta. Roodaka is known to have played parts on both sides, though neither side knows she works for the other.

At a time when relations between the Dark Hunters and the Brotherhood of Makuta were still good, the Hunters made up part of a Brotherhood army that included Visorak and Exo-Toa.

 * Two Hunters had been tasked with monitoring "Vanisher". One had been assigned to monitor Vanisher, while the other had been assigned to monitor Vanisher and his fellow observer.
 * Seven thousand years ago, a "tall, thin, winged figure" was tasked with stealing the Makoki stone, but sold his information to Hakann. Hakann got a partner, Vezok, and they stole the stone themselves, but were caught by other Hunters (at least Ancient, possibly working with others) and brought in for recruitment. The winged Hunter was then executed in front of the two thieves and the other four future Piraka as a warning against betrayal.
 * Trilax had some sort of shapeshifting or chameleon power. He was teamed with "Gladiator" and "Devastator" in trying to claim the Nui Stone from Toa Tuyet, during which he used his power to impersonate Keetongu.
