Nuju (Pirates)

Nuju is the Toa Metru of Ice and the lookout of the Lhikan.

Early life
When he was a Matoran, Nuju was a Scholar stationed at Knowledge Tower #44. He recieved his training from Ko-Matoran philosopher Ihu, who was one of his closest and only friends. Nuju would spend his time staring at the stars with his telescope rather than socialize, causing him to prefer isolation to interaction with others who weren't Ihu. During the Matoran Civil War, Nuju was one of the many Ko-Matoran who attempted to talk both sides out of fighting, but ended up siding with the Po-Matoran when their advice weren't heeded. While he didn't fight, Nuju provided tactical support behind the lines alongside Ihu. By the end of the war, Nuju's Kanohi was damaged and the Ko-Matoran took the opportunity to request Vakama, who was repairing it, to add a telescopic lens to it.

While studying the skies one day, Nuju was approached by Toa Lhikan, who gave him a map and a Toa Stone before abruptly leaving. Deducing from the map that he was to go to the Great Temple in Ga-Metru, he proceeded to and found five other Matoran there with similar stones in hand. Initially confused and somewhat hostile towards the sarcastic Po-Matoran Onewa (with whom he had an animosity with during the Civil War) and the Onu-Matoran Archivist Whenua (whose ideals clashed with his), Nuju joined the others in placing their stones into the Temple's Suva. The resulting burst of light transformed Nuju and the other Matoran into Toa.

Great Flood
As the Toa Metru approached the Great Barrier, a great earthquake struck the universe and caused the Barrier to crack open. The result was a large amount of water to rush in and flood the majority of the world while also washing away all if not most of the Matoran Spheres.

The Regathering
After years of imprisonment, Nuju continued to try to convince Nokama that Vakama would not come back to rescue them, his belief based upon the Toa of Fire's state after the Great Flood. However, he was proven wrong when Vakama appeared with his and Nokama's Toa Tools and his Matatu. Donning his mask once more, Nuju used it to telekinetically tear his cage apart, much to his relief. However, the rescue was witnessed by a guard, who promptly sounded a nearby alarm. The trio of Toa then rushed to escape the colony and managed to barely make it out just as the gates closed. Unfortunately, they were met with a large group of Skakdi who were awaiting them outside.

Abilities and traits
As a Matoran, Nuju was a Scholar who prefered isolation to social interaction, due to being more interested in studying the stars with his telescope. His preferene also resulted in others avoiding him due to his quiet and mysterious nature.

As a Toa, Nuju was rather shocked at his transformation and unsure of what he was supposed to do. This basically forced him to work with the other Toa Metru despite his loner attitude. As time went on, Nuju became more serious about his Toa duties and would often question the other Toa when he believed they were acting out, much to their annoyance.

As a Toa of Ice, Nuju can control, create, or absorb ice.

Mask and tools
Nuju uses a pair of Crystal Spikes which he can use to channel his Elemental Powers.

Nuju wears a Great Matatu, a Great Mask of Telekinesis, which allows him to move objects with his mind if he focused enough. Since discovering his Mask power in Metru Nui, Nuju has since been able to move objects more easily thanks to experience.

Trivia

 * plans to give Nuju the least amount of dialogue to build up to the character's eventual decision to speak only in Rahi tongues. Also because he's lazy and doesn't want to give him much lines.
