Idansflower

The Idansflower, sometimes misspelled as "Idan's Flower", was a defensive tool developed on Leskya Nui.

History
The history of the Idansflower is an ongoing mystery. The name was derived from the tool's page of an ancient Leskya Nuian weapons manuscript written by an anonymous author, which documented it's properties and how to create it. This is the oldest recording of the tool, and the only non-contemporary one. The name suggests that it was invented by a Matoran craftsman or craftswoman named "Idan," but may have also been derived from the Matoran word for "spirit", Iden. The "flower" in the name is unanimously believed to be because it vaguely resembles the shape of a flower endemic to Leskya Nui.

Following the discovery of the manuscript, Matoran smiths willingly created Idansflowers for the two Toa of Magnetism on Vandir's team defending Leskya Nui. Several more were made as spares. It is believed that all Idansflowers were destroyed when Leskya Nui was destroyed by an Incendiary in it's war against Antharahk. However, a surviving copy of the manuscript documenting it has since been found on the Horizon Breaker and may have been left on Powai Nui.

Description
The Idansflower was round and pincer-like in appearance, usually composed of a relatively heavy but strong metal. It was worn on the outer side of the forearm of the user.

If the Idansflower was used by a Toa of an Element which they could use to move distant objects, the tool would act as another vector of their power along with their Toa tool. The tool's power could be easily toggled on or off by the user. When on, the tool would utilize their Elemental abilities to attract any projectiles near the user to the tool, where it would redirect them back in the direction of their sender. Unless the tool was severely damage or the projectile was in some way unable to be swayed by it's user's Element (i.e. it could not use Magnetism to redirect a laser), this would work 100% of the time. While powerful and useful, the tool was unbiased in what projectiles it attracted, and would even attract projectiles shot from a weapon used by it's own user.

Trivia

 * The Idansflower's abilities were inspired by the magnetic wristwatch, a device the fictional MI6 agent James Bond once used, which could supposedly deflect bullets.
