Garai Nui

Garai Nui is an island in the Matoran universe, in a mid-southwestern position. It was almost exclusively populated by the Matoran species. It was notable for it's strange culture.

Creation
Similarly to the other islands in the Matoran Universe, Garai Nui was created by early Matoran laborers with the intention of constructing a cohesive society for numerous Matoran species to reside in. Upon the completion of the Matoran Universe, Several Matoran colonies settled there.

Divergence
Garai Nui was an island that was often ignored by travelers, due to its poor climates and think jungles. It's main use was the port situated on the northwestern side of the island, which was used as a resting place for travelers who wanted to pass by to the islands after it. Very few ever visited the other settlements on the island, and the action was reciprocated by its residents.

This led to the island developing a strange culture. One of the odd points were the residents had a very odd set of superstitions. They came to believe the Kanohi Garai (After which the island was named by a Toa) was a lucky Kanohi, and possessing one brought good fortune. The names of the residents were also quite strange, with tricky-to-pronounce and nonsensical sounds.

Physical
Garai Nui is in the southwestern regions of the Matoran Universe, in the Southern Island Chains. It's climate is tropical, as the temperature is mid-range and has high amounts of rainfall. Its surface is mostly dominated by large jungles, with beaches ringing the perimeter of the island. 2 streams are also present.

Settlements
The dwellings of the Matoran and Toa living here are mostly indistinct, unsegregated villages dotted throughout the island, usually in small clusters
