Karzahni after mutated by the Pit

Karzahni was one of the first beings, who ruled over the realm of Karzanhi. He and his brother Artakha were two of the first creations of the Great Beings, and each was given a domain to rule over. Originally, Matoran were sent to Karzahni in order to be repaired - but Karzahni never really did a good job. He tried to make up for it by supplying the Matoran with weapons to defend themselves, but eventually Matoran stopped being sent to him. Over time, his and Artakha's realms passed into legend, with the myths saying that bad or lazy Matoran were sent to him not for repair, but for punishment.

Karzahni had an ancient appearance, with ebon and gold colored bladed armor and a mask that was seemingly made of 3 or 4 older masks patched together. He speaks in whispers and has deep hollow black eyes. He carries a burning chain and his gauntlets crackle with energy.

His Kanohi Mask can make himself and others experience alternate or possible futures, usually bad ones (for instance, Jaller saw the devastation which would have come to pass if Takua had never become Toa Takanuva). When Matoran enter his domain they can't escape and he has them abandon their old masks as a way of making them abandon their old identities, and he uses his alternate-future power to make them lose hope. Those who disobey get turned to stone.

Until recently, he did not even know of the Makuta or Mata Nui. At first, he didn't believe the tales, but then through his own mask power he saw that the universe would cease to be if Mata Nui died. Now that he knows what exists outside his kingdom, he aims to take control before Mata Nui wakes up.

According to the Order of Mata Nui, after Jaller and his team departed from the realm, Karzahni began organizing his Matoran into an army and training them. His reason for doing this is currently unclear, but it is hinted that he intends to fight Makuta with his army of twisted Matoran.

Shortly after, Karzahni tracked Jaller and company to the island of Voya Nui, quitly observed them transform into Toa Inika, clash with Brutaka and the Piraka, and tailed them as they decended into the stone cord that connects Voya Nui with Mahri Nui.

Karzahni in The Pit

After losing sight of them after they escaped the cord, Karzahni was mutated by the Pit Mutagen into his underwater form.

He wondered the Pit until he came across Toa Lesovikk and the Ta-Matoran Sarda. Needing to hone his battle skills, he attacked Lesovikk with his burning chains.

Karzahni will battle Makuta in the Pit later this year.
