Dume

Dume was Turaga of Metru Nui from the Dark Hunter War until the rise of Makuta. He was once a Toa as well.

Dume came from his homeland for unknown reasons long before the Toa/Dark Hunter War. He was Turaga for many years before the Kanohi Dragon starting menacing Ta-Metru. After Lhikan's Team fought the beast off, he ordered the creation of the Vahki. A few years later, the Shadowed One arrived in the city and started a conflict.

Dume had to keep order during the War, which must have been a difficult job. But, in the end, the Toa were victorious, and the Dark Hunters were vanquished.

But Dume was caputered by Makuta. Makuta wanted control of the Matoran, so he told Vakama the Matoran to create the Vahi, the Mask of Time. Makuta also kept a pet during these days, Nivawk, who acted a spy for Makuta.

Dume was asleep in his pod, comatose in Makuta's lair in Po-Metru. He was awakened by the Toa Hordika, but he decided to stay on Metru Nui, to await for the Matoran's return.

That day came one thousand years later. It was a few weeks from then Dume announced Mata Nui was not asleep, but dieing.
