Toa Hagah Xia (NGW)

The Toa Hagah assigned to Antroz were one of seven teams of elite Toa chosen to serve as bodyguards for the Brotherhood of Makuta. Following the rebellion of Teridax's Toa Hagah, all but one of the team were eliminated on Antroz's orders. Pano is currently the only surviving member of this team.

Recruitment
The individual members of Antroz's Toa Hagah were active as Toa for some time, whether alone or in a team, before they were recruited. Makuta Antroz chose each Toa based on their individual accomplishments.

In honor of their new status as elite Toa, the Toa Hagah were given armor made of previous metals and matching Kanohi.

Brotherhood of Makuta
For several centuries, the Toa Hagah protected Antroz and the inhabitants of Xia from various threats.

After Teridax's Toa Hagah team discovered what the Brotherhood was plotting and rebelled, Antroz ordered his Rahkshi to eliminate his own Toa bodyguards to avoid a similar revolt. After surrounding the Toa, Antroz offered the team a last chance to join him as his lieutenants. The Toa refused, and Antroz gave the order to attack.

All of the Hagah except for Pano were killed in the ensuing battle. Pano was defeated when Antroz used his poison abilities to temporarily blind him.

Pano left Xia and eventually came to Kana Makai, becoming the resident Toa-protector. He went on to become a mentor to the Toa Kana.
