Gedefon (Chalkaverse-1)

"Science requires experimentation"

- Gedefon's views on science.

Gedefon was a Makuta scientist in the Chalkaverse-1

Early Life
Like most Makuta, Gedefon was created from a green liquid somewhere in the Matoran Universe. Like most other Makuta, he joined the Brotherhood of Makuta shortly after his creation. Unlike most other Makuta, Miserix did not assign Gedefon to an island after the Matoran Civil War. He instead stayed on Destral to work in his lab. When Teridax overthrew Miserix, Gedefon sided with him.

Gedefon was one of many Makuta to have his form change to a gas, and had to have his armor modified by the Nynrah Ghosts, as the other Makuta did.

Experimentation
At some point after the evolution of the Makuta, Gedefon decided to take up the task of gathering a group of Matoran to become a mutated Toa Hagah team, after receiving clearance from Teridax. This resulted in the Siege of Ta-Chalkis, in which forty-seven Matoran were captured. Of these Matoran, only three survived the experimentation. This resulted in a Toa of Metal who was also a Makuta, a Matoran of Fire being turned into a Toa of Fire and Air, and a Matoran of Ice being turned into a Toa of Shadow. To complete the team, Gedefon also turned a Malishta Commander into a Toa of Light, as per her request.

Powers and Abilites
Being a Makuta, Gedefon had control over the forty-two Kraata Powers, and was able to produce Kraata.

Gedefon was not known to be particularly agile or swift, but was strong.

Tools and Equipment
Gedefon possessed numerous pieces of equipment in his lab, and used them frequently. His Kanohi was the Mask of Biomechanics, which allowed him to mentally interface and control or influence machinery, which was useful in his line of work.

Trivia
