Ekimu

Ekimu, the Mask Maker was one of the two Mask Makers of Okoto.

History
Ekimu was a Mask Maker on Okoto who created Masks of Power for the islanders alongside his brother, Makuta. Out of the two of them, Ekimu's Masks were the most treasured amongst the islanders, causing his brother to become jealous. Unknown to him, Makuta combined all the elements of Okoto into one Mask, against a sacred law that a Mask may not contain the power of more than one Element. This

In the Region of Stone, Makuta donned the Mask of Ultimate Power, the sheer power of it causing the island to shake and crumble. Ekimu found his brother and fought with him, knocking the Mask from his face. A giant shockwave blasted the Mask of Creation, the Mask of Control, and the Mask of Ultimate Power in random directions, losing them to the wilds of Okoto. Both him and Makuta were knocked into an endless sleep by the blast.

The Protectors of the time found Ekimu's lifeless body, but he managed to whisper the Prophecy of Heroes to them. They placed him in a tomb inside the City of the Mask Makers, that had been abandoned after it became unstable from the shockwave.

Thousands of years later, Skull Spiders began to attack the island and the Protectors of the era used the Mask of Time to summon the six elemental heroes to Okoto, according to the Prophecy. After finding their Golden Masks, which were forged by Ekimu and hidden throughout the island, and defeating the Lord of Skull Spiders at the gate to the city, they went into the city to find the Mask Maker, and awaken him.
