Turaga



Turaga were Toa who had fulfilled their destiny and given up their Toa Power. Unlike Matoran, Turaga could use Mask Powers, but only those of weaker Noble Masks.

The Turaga were the wise leaders of the Matoran of Mata Nui and the Toa. Each village on Mata Nui had its own Turaga as its leader. On Metru Nui, the Turaga were originally Matoran who had been granted the powers of the Toa Metru by Toa Lhikan. After leaving Metru Nui, the Toa Metru gave up their Toa powers to revive the Matoran and live on Mata Nui.
