Arvos

Arvos was a Ta-Matoran who lived of Powai Nui. He assisted Turaga Maroona in her travelling, along with Omakah.

Early History
Arvos was created and lived on Powai Nui for all of his life. There he became a sort of "runt" for his small stature. He took up a life of hunting, utilizing his shortness to avoid detection.

The Feral Plains
When "colonist" Toa and Matoran began arriving on Powai Nui, Arvos was the first "native" to notice this. He notified Turaga Maroona, and they and Omakah headed to the Shrine of Salvation. When they arrived, two strange Matoran (Jeko and Merdana) saw them and, perceiving them as a threat, raised their blasters. Navahko was summoned from the Shrine, and when he failed to hold the Matoran down, Corduk was summoned and the Matoran retreated.

Later, Vandir came up to negotiate. However, Makuta Hysterix entered his mind and made him irritable, leading to a fight ending in his retreat.

Arvos witnessed Corduk's phasing in-and-out of a pocket dimension, the resurrection of Hysterix, and when Keelo began conquering his island, he escaped with Corduk, Salvina and Maroona to the Aqueduct Base.

Note: Arvos' story is still being written.

Powers and Equipment
As a Ta-Matoran, Arvos had inactive powers over the element of Fire, which manifested in the form of a resistance to extreme heat.

Arvos used a dagger, which is normally described as being too big for him told wield correctly.

Personality
Arvos is skittish and somewhat fearful, but is a quick thinker. He never hesitates to run and alert nearby Toa about a threat, which in some cases is the best choice for him.

Trivia

 * Arvos was apparently short for a Powai Nui Matoran.
 * Arvos was the first "native" to see the "colonists".
 * Arvos was originally the name given to a Toa of Ice who died on his first mission. This idea was scrapped and the name wa srecycled. This may has some coincidental relation with Arvos' personality.
