Dear Hewkii...

Life Counters were non-canon circular devices included with some of the sets of 2009. They had a scale from 5 going down to 1, plus a skull marking for "death", or, "defeat", that was between the 1 and 5. They were used in the "Bionicle Action Figure Game."
Placement[]
Life Counters were placed on various places of the sets. Most sets in the Glatorian line, and all of those in the Glatorian Legends line had a life Counter placed on the upper back of a figure. The (2009) Skrall set as well as the Vorox set had them attached to the figures' left foot. They were attached to figures via a certain piece which had the original use as a chest plate for the Toa Metru.
Glatorian Arena[]
In the BIONICLE online games Glatorian Arena, Glatorian Arena 2, and Glatorian Arena 3 there was an animation in each upper-hand corner to keep track of the life for the character controlled by the player, as well as the computer.
Function in Canon Storyline[]
The Life Counters on the back of most Glatorian in BIONICLE: The Legend Reborn have been confirmed to be small back packs.
