Frequently asked questions
- What is Onua, Uniter of Earth?
- Onua Uniter of Earth was the second-stage form of the Toa of Earth of Okoto, assumed after Ekimu reforged the Golden Masks of Power and remade the six Toa as Uniters of their elements. The form replaced the Master configuration of the first phase.
- Who forged the Uniter of Earth form, and why?
- Ekimu crafted new armour, masks, and tools for the team after Kulta was defeated at the Mask Makers' Forge. The new equipment was needed because recovering the Mask of Control required each Toa to unite with the Creature of his element, which the Master-form gear had not been forged for.
- What weapon did Onua carry as Uniter of Earth?
- Onua carried the Drill Hammer, a single drill-ended hammer powered by Earth. It replaced the pair of Turbo Shovelers and the Earthquake Hammer that combined them from his Master form.
- Who was Onua's elemental partner?
- Onua was paired with Terak, the Creature of Earth, who dwelled in the underground country of the Region of Earth. Onua located the Creature and bowed to him, and the bond formed cleanly, granting Onua tireless stamina and untiring energy in the field.
- How did Makuta get sealed away at the Black Volcano?
- Gali returned from the Shadow Realm with the means to seal Makuta back at the cost of the Toa's elemental powers. Onua poured out his element with the other four Toa in a single coordinated discharge against the rift, which sealed Makuta within the Shadow Realm and exhausted Onua's elemental reserves completely.
