Miserix

"I don't have time for this. I have places to be, and bodies to break. I want you to send out a message to all your friends, to everyone who sails in and out of this island. Tell them Miserix is back, and when I find him, Teridax is dead!"

- Miserix, to a trader on Stelt

Miserix was the first leader of the Brotherhood of Makuta.

Around the time when the island of Destral was completed, Miserix gave an order to Mutran, Icarax, and Pridak to negotiate with the Vortixx about lowering their trade prices with the Matoran.

At the time that Pridak left the Brotherhood to start the League of Six Kingdoms, Miserix hired Takadox, one of the leaders of the League, to spy for him. Later, the Makuta attended a meeting with the 6 leaders of the League. The warlords demanded that the Brotherhood continue to make new Rahi and anything else they might need. After the meeting ended, Miserix ordered his lieutenant, Makuta Teridax, to watch the Barraki. Teridax obeyed, later leading the attack that dismantled the League of Six Kingdoms.

500 years later, the Matoran Civil War sparked on Metru Nui. Again, Miserix turned to Teridax and ordered him to stop the war. During the war, Miserix gave Makuta Mutran the mission to visit Tren Krom, believing that such a being of great power could not go unchecked in the universe without knowing its intent or potential danger.

Some time later, Teridax rebelled against Miserix after learning a way to rule the universe with Mata Nui asleep. Miserix was overthrown and Makuta Krika imprisoned him on Artidax. Officially, he was reported to "die in a Rahi creation accident".

Miserix was freed by Brutaka's team, not before absorbing Makuta Spiriah into his body. Miserix then destroyed the volcano, grew wings, and fled along with Brutaka's team, heading north to Daxia. He soon left the island to Stelt to spread his message. He caught a trader and ordered him to inform everybody that Miserix is looking for Teridax.

Trivia

 * The winner of the Makuta Building Challenge was named Miserix.
 * Like all Makuta, Miserix was a bit selfish. But unlike Teridax, he would not let those emotions rule his destiny.
