Shield

"Even the best swordsman can't defeat an entire universe on his own. That was why the shield was invented, and why I stand by my comrades."

- "Shield" to a Toa during the Toa/Dark Hunter War

"Shield" (or Razc, as he was once known as) is a Dark Hunter.

History
TWB...

Abilities and Traits
"Shield" always preferred being on the defensive side of things, waiting for his enemies to exhaust themselves in going on the offensive. However, his patience is often limited, and he may grow tired of waiting and leap into action himself.

In addition to great strength, "Shield" also possesses nearly indestructible armor. It is said to be able to withstand blasts of a Cordak Blaster, and the might of a Toa Kaita. His teeth are also capable of crushing stone, as is his pincer. Due to the weight of his armor and Solar Cannon, he is one of the slower members of the Dark Hunters.

Mask and Tools
"Shield" and his kind are incapable of using Kanohi masks. His main tools are his Solar Cannon and pincers. The latter is a natural part of him, while the former was given to him by Dark Hunter scientists. The Cannon draws in light and heat energy, releasing it as a laser capable of burning all it touches. However, it can only hold so much energy, and can also over heat if fired for too long. Its weight also makes it a decent makeshift melee weapon.
