Adaptive Armor

Adaptive Armor was armor that could adapt and shapeshift to allow its user the greatest advantage in any environment it was exposed to by detecting its surroundings via sensors. It was considered by its creator to be his greatest creation. The Toa Nuva were given this armor by Artahka when they entered his realm. The Toa first experienced the adaptation when they began falling in Karda Nui, prompting the Adaptive Armor to give them the ability to float. The Toa Nuva's Kanohi and Toa Tools adapted changed as well. The Toa Nuva's eyes turned from varied colors to a yellow-green, as this was a side effect of a system that protected their eyes while moving at high speeds.

A projectile weapon was also included, and it could also adapt itself.

Forms
So far, there are 4 known forms it has taken.

Default
The armor's default mode was the Toa's original armor.

Aerial
When exposed to the skies of Karda Nui, the armor shapeshifted into a more aerodynamic mode, allowing the user to fly via different methods. In addition, the armor created protective visors and provided a Midak Skyblaster. Their eyes also changed colors to a yellow-green, as a side-effect of a system that would protect their eyes when moving at high speeds.


 * Lewa received jets, an Air Saber, and a Midak Skyblaster.
 * Kopaka received wings and a Midak Skyblaster, armed with a Blizzard Blade.
 * Pohatu received propellers and a shoulder-mounted Midak Skyblaster.

Swamp
In the swamp, the armor shapeshifted into a form somewhat similar to its aerial mode, but with a few major differences. Instead of equipment designed for high speeds, it had fins and jets which were less powerful than the Aerial mode. This prevented the user from sinking into the swamp. A Nynrah Ghostblaster was included due to the Mistika Makuta owning them.


 * Onua received two shoulder-mounted fins, a Multi-Resistance Shield, and a Nynrah Ghostblaster.
 * Tahu received four jets on his torso, two with fins, a High-Speed Rotating Blade, and a Nynrah Ghostblaster.
 * Gali received a Nynrah Ghostblaster with an Aqua Focus Target.

Vehicular
In vehicular mode, the armor adapted to fit the vehicle, removed weapons and the user's visor was shapeshifted to include fins for aerodynamics.

Trivia

 * Tahu was still wearing his Adaptive Armor when the Ignika transformed back into his Toa Mata form, thus making him look slightly different from his original form.
