Rahkshi of Insect Control

“The insects were already around her, stinging and then flying away, only to return and sting again. Nokama's armored body was enough to blunt their stings, but enough got through to drive her to the ground. As soon as she was subdued, the fireflyers left, their orders fulfilled.”

Rahkshi of Insect Control were one of forty-two types of possible Rahkshi.

History

Rahkshi of Insect Control, like all Rahkshi, began life as a Kraata of Insect Control. Should the Kraata be submerged in Energized Protodermis, and if the Kraata were destined to transform, the Antidermis slug would be transmuted into a suit of empty Rahkshi armor. Another Kraata of Insect Control was required to pilot the armor.

A Rahkshi of Insect Control briefly hunted Toa of Earth Whenua when he was seeking the Archivist Tehutti. One Rahkshi of Insect Control encountered the Toa Metru as a group while they attempted to fix a leak in the Onu-Metru Archives. It was travelling at the time with a Rahkshi of Weather Control. Both were eventually defeated. The Rahkshi of Weather Control later stumbled upon a stunned Rahkshi of Insect Control. Nokama also fought the Rahkshi of Insect Control later on, although it turned out to be the shapeshifting Krahka in disguise.

Powers

All Rahkshi of Insect Control possessed the ability to summon and control insectoid Rahi. This enabled them to command everything from a single Nui-Rama to thousands of fireflies and mosquitos. However, these animal-control powers did not extend to any Rahi beyond insectoid creatures.

This breed possessed orange armor, and were piloted by a yellow-and-black Kraata of Insect Control.

Tools

A Rahkshi of Insect Control could only access its Kraata power while it wielded its weapon, a Staff of Insect Control. However, it did not need to channel its powers through the staff.
