Nokama (Pirates)

Nokama is the Toa Metru of Water, quartermaster, and first mate of the Lhikan who resides in the Pirates Universe.

Early life
Nokama was a Teacher during her Matoran days, and an exemplary one since she recieved many prestigious awards for her achievements in education. While her personal methods of teaching wielded significant results, this unfortunately resulted in one of Nokama's students, Vhisola, to become obsessed with her. One day, Nokama was visiting friends near a Protodermis Canal when she slipped and fell in. The frightened and drowning Ga-Matoran was carried by the current all the way to Ko-Metru before she was rescued. The experience shook Nokama to her core and ironically gave her aquaphobia. Nokama worked as a nurse during the Matoran Civil War, despite her very limited medical training (which was a mandatory skill for Ga-Metru Teachers).

Later, one of Nokama's classes was interrupted by the sudden arrival of Toa Lhikan. Besides vague information and a cautious attitude, Lhikan gave her nothing but a map and a Toa Stone. Deducing that the map directed her to the Great Temple, Nokama went there and found five other Matoran with similar Stones. While the others were initially confused with what to do with their Stones, Nokama was the first to realize what the Stones were and placed hers in a nearby Suva. The others followed suit and were transformed into Toa.

Great Flood
As Nokama and the rest of the Toa Metru approached the Great Barrier, a large earthquake struck the universe. The resulting shake caused the Great Barrier to crack open and a large amount of water to come rushing in. The waters flooded the majority of the universe and washed away all if not most of the Matoran Spheres, scattering them across the world.

Memories of her near-drowning caused Nokama to tense up and fail to provide proper protection for the Toa Metru and their transporter, effectively causing their vehicle to be destroyed. Recovering, the Toa constructed a new ship out of stone and pieces of the transporter.

The Regathering
Despite being imprisoned, Nokama remained hopeful that Vakama would come rescue them while Nuju disagreed. After years of waiting, Nokama's faith finally paid off when Vakama returned to free them and returned to them their respective Toa Tools. However, the rescue did not go quietly and the alarm was set off by a guard that caught sight of it. The trio managed to escape from the inside of the volcano just as the gates shut. Unfortunately, there was a large contingent of guards awaiting the three just outside.

Abilities and traits
As a Matoran, Nokama was a highly regarded Teacher and was liked by her students thanks to her methods of personally tutoring. However, this sometimes backfired when this led to some of her students obsessing over her.

As a Toa, Nokama was ready and willing to fullfill her destiny. Using her experience as a Teacher, Nokama took on the role of the voice of reason among the anti-social members of the Toa Metru, especially when they often turned against Vakama. Nokama saw him as the team's true leader despite his insecurities. Due to her traumatic experience in the Protodermis Canal, Nokama was ironically aquaphobic and thus not as comfortable swimming as a Toa of Water should be.

As a Toa of Water, Nokama can control, create, and absorb water, though her inexperience makes her unable to create water out of thin air.

Mask and tools
Nokama uses a pair of Hydro Blades, which she can use to channel her Elemental powers and spin to create shielding.

Nokama wears a Great Kanohi Rau, a Great Mask of Translation, which allows her to translate any spoken and written languages.
