Deriahk

''"Vavakx is still plagued with vanity... but I have noted the number of custom modifications to his arms and body since a long time..."

— Deriahk''

Early Life
Deriahk is an ancient Skakdi, and may very well be older than Mata-Nui. Some have said that he was a hero long before Toa even came into being. He left Zakaz at the arrival of Spiriah and began a quest to find Artakha, believing that he could shelter there away from the destructive might of Spiriah. He never succeeded in finding the Great Refuge, but he arrived at Takiw Nui. There, he met Vavakx and became his assistant.

The Pit
Many years later, Deriahk went to the Pit. He was wounded by Barraki Pridak and left for sea beasts. After escaping, he met with Vavakx to plan how to get the Kanohi Ignika. Deriahk was told by to abduct the Ga-Matoran Kyrehk who picked the Mask of Life during its fall and bring her to his cave.

Later, Deriahk and Vavakx discovered Veuy and Manauhk. After a battle, Deriahk sacrified part of his own life energy to allow Vavakx to shapeshift and he fell unconscious, but he had freed Vavakx from his locked form and in gratitude he teleported Deriahk to safety.

Dark Hunters
Deriahk helped Vavakx for a while in Karda-Nui, then he escaped in a vehicle and was trapped by the Dark Hunters. As a Dark Hunter his mission was to monitor the Piraka from Daxia. He later left the hunters to met Vavakx at Karda-Nui.

Abilities and Traits
Deriahk is very cold, he is very dedicated to his job. Even if he knows that what he is doing is bad, it does not matter to him. He pulls out all the stops to beat his opponents, because that is his duty to Vavakx. He is extremely angry against Spiriah, blaming him for destroying his brothers in Zakaz.

Deriahk has the ability to send electrical shocks.

He wields claws that are made of Protosteel and were given to him by The Order of the Great Creators, these weapons are actually part of his body.

Unlike the other Skakdi, Deriahk does not have a spine. His Garai was given to him by Manauhk.
