Akaku

"Kopaka called forth the power of his original mask, which gave him the abilitiy to see through stone and snow to what lay beneath. Glancing down at the ground, he saw the icy snow...and then the raw, cold dirt underneath...and below that, a layer of rock crosscut with veins of minerals."

- Narration, BIONICLE Chronicles 1: Tale of the Toa

The Kanohi Akaku was the Mask of X-Ray Vision, also called the Mask of Vision. The Great Akaku gave its user the power to see through solid objects. Akaku were commonly fitted with special lenses that allowed for telescopic vision as well.

Akaku were carved out of a mixture of Regeneration and Teleport Kanoka on Metru Nui.
