Ekimu was one of the legendary Maskmakers on Okoto and the brother of Makuta. He wore the Mask of Creation. He will be awakened by the Toa from their elemental powers to help find the Mask of Creation.

History

Ekimu was a legendary crafter of Masks of Power, alongside his brother Makuta. Makuta, however, grew jealous, since the islanders of Okoto valued Ekimu's masks more than his. When Makuta created and donned the Mask of Ultimate Power, Ekimu saw this, and knocked the mask from Makuta's face. The resulting shockwave put both brothers into a deep slumber. With his last breath, he whispered the Prophecy of Heroes to the Protectors. The Protectors forged him a special golden mask and laid him to rest in a gold coffin decorated with a Mask of Creation emblem.

Powers and Tools

As a Maskmaker, Ekimu was able to create masks of incredible power. He wielded the Hammer of Power, which he used to shape his creations, as well as using it in battle. He also wielded the Saw Shield for protection against enemies.

He also wore the Mask of Creation, until it was lost in the aftermath of his conflict with Makuta, replaced with a Golden Protector Mask. While he rested in his tomb in the Ancient City, he was able to telepathically communicate with the Toa through the Golden Masks of Power.
