Onua (Generation 2)

Onua, the Master of Earth, later known as the Uniter of Earth, is one of the six elemental heroes that were foretold in the Prophecy of Heroes.

Arrival
Onua, along with the rest of the Toa, were summoned to Okoto by the Protectors when they recited the Prophecy of Heroes. Onua fell from the sky and crashed on the island. Korgot, the Protector of Earth and several local villagers, journeyed to the crash-site, where the Toa stepped out of the debris. When he crashed, Onua had forgotten his identity and past. The Protector told him about the Skull Spiders, and his destiny to defeat them and bring balance to the land. After acclimatizing to the region, Onua was led off in search of the Golden Mask of Earth by Korgot.

Journey to the Shrine
They traveled through Okoto for weeks, fighting off Skull Spiders and avoiding dangers in the swamps and forests in the Region of Earth. During that time the Protector told him of Ekimu and Makuta, and their fall. She also told the Toa of the dark forces moving throughout the land, searching for the Golden Masks. They eventually entered a large subterranean cavern and Onua saw the pedestal holding the Golden Mask of Earth.

His presence in the chamber, however, alerted a swarm of Skull Spiders to his location, inadvertently summoning a small horde of the creatures. While Korgot fended a number of the aggressors off, Onua was eventually able to overwhelm the Skull Spiders once he had placed the Golden Mask upon his face and felt a surge of elemental energy fill his body.

Shortly after his triumphant defeat of the Skull Spiders, Onua received a vision from a mysterious being, showing an ancient and abandoned city. Korgot told him that the vision was from Ekimu, the Mask Maker, and that he needed to leave for the City of the Mask Makers to find the Mask Maker and reclaim the Mask of Creation. The Protector then informed him of the other five heroes, and that together, they would defeat the evil that lurked in the city. Onua then left the Protector in search of the legendary Ekimu.

Abilities and Traits
Wise and resolute, Onua is a Toa who rarely speaks, preferring only to contribute when he has something worthwhile to say. Renowned for his good nature and morality, Onua is regarded as the moral center of his team, often contemplating ethical solutions to problems.

As a Master of Earth, Onua is able to manipulate, create, and absorb Earth. This enables him to raise earthen pillars, craft constructs out of sediment and soil, and grants him the ability to see clearly in poorly-lit caverns. As a consequence of spending his time underground, however, Onua's eyesight is vulnerable to bright lights and he is unable to manipulate most times of sand.

Mask and Tools
Upon his original arrival on Okoto, Onua wore the Mask of Earth. He removed this Mask when he retrieved the Golden Mask of Earth, later placing it in his Shrine.

Onua carried an Earthquake Hammer, which could act as a traditional swinging weapon or be separated into two halves to function as Turbo Shovelers, enabling him to more effectively dig through particularly dense rock.
