Notable Wearer(s) | Lhikan (formerly), the Toa Mata (formerly except Tahu) |
Pronunciation | HOW |
- “Immediately, a strange feeling overwhelmed him. As if a cushion of strength had settled in around him, protecting him from all harm.”
- — Narration, BIONICLE Chronicles 1: Tale of the Toa
The Kanohi Hau was the Mask of Shielding. It gave its user the power to protect themself from any attack that they were aware of, but was useless against ambush or mental attacks. The Noble Hau acts the same as the Great version, but provides a weaker shield and has a shorter duration of power.
Hau were carved out of a mixture of Growth and Regeneration Kanoka on Metru Nui.
Example Usages
- Great: In the Mata Nui Online Game, Onua used his Hau to shield himself from an attack made by Lewa while he was infected.
- Noble: Turaga Lhikan used his Hau to shield himself from Teridax's shadow hand in BIONICLE 2: Legends of Metru Nui. However, the shield was quickly overwhelmed by the Makuta's power, and broke.
