Chantry (Chalkaverse-1)

“Chantry” is a male Aurosian and member of the Dark Hunters. Highly devoted to Mata Nui, “The Shadowed One” finds “Chantry” an interesting individual to control and mainly uses him to expand the fortress on Odina or to build new structures throughout the Matoran Universe while leaving alternate means of entry for future Dark Hunter exploitation.

Early Life
Like all other Aurosians, “Chantry” was created by Mata Nui shortly after departing Spherus Magna. As with the rest of his kind, “Chantry” set about working to build structures and settlements on the Southern Continent. Whilst most others of his kind lost interest in building after the Awakening, “Chantry” continued at his craft. He became particularly interested in building more religious structures dedicated to Mata Nui himself, experimenting in both simple designs and ornate ones.

Etymology
A chantry is a sort of fund established in the will of an individual meant to support a religious official conducting a certain number of masses in honor of the deceased person, and was more common in Catholicism starting just before the Reformation in Europe. A chantry can also refer to a special chapel or altar within a church constructed for the priest to fulfill the chantry duties.
