Spidrek

Spidrek was the name given to a Toa Hordika of Acid, who was a member of the infamous Dark Hunters. His real name is unknown.

Early Life
Spidrek began his life like most other Toa of Acid as a Cor-Matoran on Spherus Magna, where he helped with the construction of the Matoran Universe with no true sentience and desires.

After much labor, he was placed inside the Matoran Universe, in one of the southernmost islands, where he lived with other Matoran, to keep this part of the Great Spirit operational. After Velika's tampering with the Matoran species, Spidrek gained true consciousness, and developed his own wants and needs.

Spidrek was assigned the job of hunter, where he would capture and kill dangerous Rahi on the island.

Life as a Toa
At some unknown period, a Toa visited the island where Spidrek lived, and he was one of the Matoran chosen to become a Toa, so he could protect the island from the dangerous Rahi. After becoming a Toa, Spidrek wanted to travel the Matoran Universe, as he thought that the island would be in good hands with his fellow five Toa, and that he was unneeded.

After a long period of traveling, Spidrek was requested to join a traveling Toa team, who was in need of members. He agreed, and they traveled the Matoran Universe, righting wrongs wherever they went.

Spidrek very much enjoyed this lifestyle, and loved being a Toa. After a very long time as a Toa, Spidrek decided to head back to his home island and pass on his Toa power.

When Spidrek arrived, the island had been overtaken by the Visorak Horde. Shocked, Spidrek launched an assault on the Visorak residing on his island. He was confronted by a Makuta, who easily bested him. The Makuta captured Spidrek as a test subject for his experiments.

Experimentation and Life as a Hordika
After he was captured, Spidrek was subjected to many kinds of tortures and experimentation with the Hordika venom, to see if they could manipulate how the Hordika venom effected a Toa. It was also revealed that Spidrek's Toa team was also captured and were being used for experimentation. In the experimentation, Spidrek lost his memory, forgetting his name and his past.

After experimentation was completed, Spidrek and the rest of his former Toa team broke out of the lab that was holding them, and scattered across the Matoran Universe, living in hiding.

During this period, Spidrek tried to find out who he was, but to no avail. Due to this, he carved himself a new identity. He traveled across the Matoran Universe working as a hired gun, and made himself a name in the mercenary business.

Life as a Dark Hunter
During this time, Spidrek was recruited into the Dark Hunter organization. he was given new weapons, and was sent on various missions throughout the Matoran Universe, usually as an assassin. During this time, he was assigned the name Spidrek, due to the fact that he did not have a name prior.

Spidrek was an important asset to the Dark Hunters; he had great variability, which allowed him to take on most kinds of missions, and because of the fact that he had no memories of his past, he had no desire to leave the Dark Hunters.

During one of his missions, he was assigned to kill one of his previous Toa team members. The act of killing the former Toa triggered flashbacks in Spidrek, causing him to start remembering fragments of his past. Over time, Spidrek was able to remember more and more of his past. Although he remembered his name, he decided to keep the name Spidrek.

After the Battle of Bara Magna and Spherus Magna was reformed, Spidrek left the Dark Hunters and became a free-lancer. It is unknown where on Spherus Magna he is.

Abilities and Traits
As a Toa, Spidrek had complete control of the element of acid. After he was transformed into a Hordika, he had developed glands that created acid, which he used as a projectile weapon. He also coated his armor and claws in acid. As a Dark Hunter, Spidrek was given a kinetic staff, which would charge up energy with each blow it landed on an enemy. When fully charged, it could release a powerful blast of energy. As a Hordika, Spidrek's senses were enhanced, allowing him to become a more efficient hunter. Even though he is very big, Spidrek is very fast and agile, and he can even climb up walls.
