Toa of Air#

Their standard outputs included projection of cyclones, generation of columns of compressed air for lift or impact, controlled release of vacuum or rarefied air to disorient opponents, and the manipulation of existing wind currents in the surrounding environment. The element was useful for both crowd control and precision rescue, and the recorded combat operations of Toa of AirToa of AirWielders of the Element of Air, typically transformed from Le-Matoran, tasked with protecting the Matoran Universe. covered both extremes.

Air in the cosmological order#

The position of Air within the broader cosmology of the Matoran UniverseMatoran UniverseA civilization of biomechanical beings living inside a colossal robot, destroyed when Teridax seized control. was unremarkable in the strict sense: the element ranked among the six primary powers, with no special protection or concealment of the kind that surrounded the Light-bearing populations.

The practical consequence was that the principal expressions of Air across the Matoran UniverseMatoran UniverseA civilization of biomechanical beings living inside a colossal robot, destroyed when Teridax seized control. remained Toa-tier rather than Element-Lord-tier.
