Origins on Artakha#

Kopaka was created on ArtakhaArtakhaArtakha was the master craftsman of the Matoran Universe, ruler of a hidden island, and the forger of the Toa Mata, the Avohkii, and the Kraahkan., the secretive island ruled by the being of the same name, who armed and equipped those who served the Great Spirit's plan. The location of ArtakhaArtakhaArtakha was the master craftsman of the Matoran Universe, ruler of a hidden island, and the forger of the Toa Mata, the Avohkii, and the Kraahkan. was a state secret of the highest order; the Destiny WarThe Destiny WarThe open conflict between the Order of Mata Nui and the Brotherhood of Makuta that ended fifty thousand years of operational secrecy and broke the Brotherhood's last assault on Metru Nui. serial records that HelryxHelryxHelryx was the first Toa created by the Great Beings, founder of the Order of Mata Nui, and commander of its covert war against the Brotherhood of Makuta. had "ordered the deaths of everyone who knew the location of ArtakhaArtakhaArtakha was the master craftsman of the Matoran Universe, ruler of a hidden island, and the forger of the Toa Mata, the Avohkii, and the Kraahkan." to preserve its concealment. The Mutran ChroniclesThe Mutran Chronicles: The Brotherhood Experimentalist's Account of Visorak, Rahkshi, and the PlanThe serial record left by the Makuta Mutran of the Brotherhood's transition from Rahi-makers to conspirators, including the experiments that produced the shadow leeches and the campaigns that exposed the Visorak and Rahkshi to the universe. describes the Toa Mata, from the perspective of the Brotherhood of MakutaThe Brotherhood of MakutaAn organization of Makuta created by Mata Nui to police his universe and build Rahi, later seized by Teridax and turned into the instrument of the Plan that overthrew the Great Spirit., as "the keys to all our planning, all our hopes, and all our dreams of conquest."

The six Toa Mata were sealed into canisters and launched across the silver sea toward the island of Mata NuiMata Nui (Location)An island created by accident on the Great Spirit's face, home to the Matoran for a thousand years.. The transit lasted considerably longer than intended, and Kopaka emerged on the beach with no memory of ArtakhaArtakhaArtakha was the master craftsman of the Matoran Universe, ruler of a hidden island, and the forger of the Toa Mata, the Avohkii, and the Kraahkan., no memory of his prior existence, and only partial command of his powers. Self-reliance became the basis of his conduct from his earliest hours of consciousness.

Years later, after the collapse of the Matoran UniverseMatoran UniverseA civilization of biomechanical beings living inside a colossal robot, destroyed when Teridax seized control., Kopaka survived an avalanche on Mount IhuMount IhuA snow-capped peak in Ko-Wahi where Kopaka sought his first mask and Nuju honored his mentor. and immediately sought "a likely spot, miles away from where the other Toa and GlatorianGlatorianTribal warriors of Spherus Magna who settled disputes through arena combat, until the Skrall conquest enslaved most of them. were assembled," as recorded in Reign of ShadowsReign of ShadowsThe year Teridax ruled the Matoran Universe from inside Mata Nui's body, and the scattered resistance plots that ran against him until the Great Spirit returned from Bara Magna..

Ko-Wahi and the Search for Kanohi#

Ko-WahiKo-WahiKo-Wahi is a region situated directly above Ko-Metru, inhabited by Matoran, Turaga, Toa, and Rahi. It was formerly under the control of Teridax. was the most inhospitable region of Mata NuiMata Nui (Location)An island created by accident on the Great Spirit's face, home to the Matoran for a thousand years., a zone of perpetual blizzards and frozen peaks centred on Mount IhuMount IhuA snow-capped peak in Ko-Wahi where Kopaka sought his first mask and Nuju honored his mentor..

According to BIONICLE Chronicles 1: Tale of the ToaTale of the ToaThe chronicle of how six Toa arrived on the island of Mata Nui, recovered their Kanohi, formed the Toa Kaita, and confronted the Shadow Toa beneath Mangaia., Kopaka encountered PohatuPohatuPohatu was the Toa Mata and Toa Nuva of Stone, guardian of Po-Wahi, whose speed and steady humour anchored the team through every era of the Matoran Universe. early in his search and reluctantly permitted the Toa of StoneToa of StoneStone-wielding Toa protected Mata Nui's villages, though Pohatu's exceptional origin distinguished him from the typical Po-Matoran transformation. to accompany him for a stretch.

Elemental Powers, Mask, and Tools#

From his first deployment in BIONICLE Chronicles 1: Tale of the ToaTale of the ToaThe chronicle of how six Toa arrived on the island of Mata Nui, recovered their Kanohi, formed the Toa Kaita, and confronted the Shadow Toa beneath Mangaia., he used the mask to observe the other Toa at distance before approaching them.

Among the Toa Mata, Kopaka alone held the designation of deputy commander, an arrangement that arose without formal ceremony and reflected the team's recognition of his operational effectiveness. He exercised the role when circumstances demanded. During Reign of ShadowsReign of ShadowsThe year Teridax ruled the Matoran Universe from inside Mata Nui's body, and the scattered resistance plots that ran against him until the Great Spirit returned from Bara Magna., with TahuTahu (2001)Tahu was the Toa Mata of Fire and leader of the team, from his first landing on Ta-Wahi Beach to the destruction of Teridax's Rahkshi army on Bara Magna with the Golden Armor.'s group scattered across multiple fronts and the chain of command disrupted, Kopaka spotted the Toa MahriToa Mahri: The Toa Who Saved the UniverseThe Toa Mahri were the water breathing form of the sixth Toa team, transformed by the Mask of Life on the way down to the drowned city of Mahri Nui.

He reasoned, "LewaLewaToa of Air, member of the Toa Mata and Toa Nuva, whose career was marked by repeated possession, body theft, and aerial campaigns from Le-Wahi to Karda Nui. will have to wait, I'm afraid. I need to get to the bottom of this, for the Mahri's sake if nothing else." Once he had committed to the search for LewaLewaToa of Air, member of the Toa Mata and Toa Nuva, whose career was marked by repeated possession, body theft, and aerial campaigns from Le-Wahi to Karda Nui., his first thought was to "talk to the other Nuva and organize a search."

His relationship with PohatuPohatuPohatu was the Toa Mata and Toa Nuva of Stone, guardian of Po-Wahi, whose speed and steady humour anchored the team through every era of the Matoran Universe. was the most consistent partnership of his career. In BIONICLE Chronicles 4: Tales of the MasksThe Quests for the Kanohi NuvaThe six expeditions through which the Toa Nuva recovered their Great Masks of Power after the Bohrok-Kal crisis, told to the council that decided whether they had earned the truth about Metru Nui., Kopaka delivered his "seek out LewaLewaToa of Air, member of the Toa Mata and Toa Nuva, whose career was marked by repeated possession, body theft, and aerial campaigns from Le-Wahi to Karda Nui." rebuff while still permitting PohatuPohatuPohatu was the Toa Mata and Toa Nuva of Stone, guardian of Po-Wahi, whose speed and steady humour anchored the team through every era of the Matoran Universe. to remain at his side. By the events of Reign of ShadowsReign of ShadowsThe year Teridax ruled the Matoran Universe from inside Mata Nui's body, and the scattered resistance plots that ran against him until the Great Spirit returned from Bara Magna., the two operated together with an understanding that required no preamble.
