Oh, you invented some new characters! I'm still figuring out who "Norah" and "Pakari" are :P

The questions you answered weren't the ones I really asked for answering, it was just a list of plot lines that will be closed later. But it's still interesting to read your theories!

I try to make even my villains realistic and not huge powerlords who have no limitations of their powers in any way. Imagine that mask as some kind of support for him; his ability to control all these Forgotten Warriors would be like if a Toa of Water constantly keeps a storm around himself... You would have to be concentrated all the time and wouldn't be able to do anything else or be as far away from your horde as Nuva sometimes is.

That's why he has to use the mask: To control a large amount of rotten Toa :)

Thanks for the kind words!
