Agitra was a Vo-Matoran and later Toa of Lightning, who notably survived the Dark Times and Reign of Shadows.

Biography

Early Life

Similarly to most other Toa of Lightning, Agitra began her life as a Vo-Matoran on Spherus Magna, where she aided in the construction of the Great Spirit Robot. Upon its completion, she was placed inside one of the domes of the Matoran Universe, which then departed Spherus Magna.

While the island of her original residence after the Great Spirit Robot's completion remains unclear, it is known that she lived amongst a community of Matoran for the majority of her life.

In the aftermath of the Toa/Dark Hunter War, Agitra would eventually be chosen to became a Toa, transforming under unknown circumstances.

Life as a Toa

After her transformation, Agitra would be partnered with Toa Ilidu, a Toa of Plasma from her original village. Under the instruction of a local Turaga, she gained control over her Elemental Powers and sought to defend the Matoran of her home settlement.

Agitra and Ilidu during the Reign of Shadows

During this time, Agitra and Ilidu briefly encountered Toa Sonitous, a traveling Toa of Sonics who visited their village. Although skeptical of the visiting Toa, they directed him towards a memorial grove, where he might find an old herbalist.

At the height of the Dark Times, however, the presence of both Agitra and Ilidu in a single village attracted unwanted attention. As a result, Dark Hunters frequently raided the area and captured Matoran in hopes of luring the Toa out and killing them. Forced to leave the village in order to bring peace to the Matoran, the pair began wandering the Southern Islands of the Matoran Universe, searching for opportunities to uphold the values of the Toa Code.

Reign of Shadows

After Makuta Teridax took control of the Matoran Universe and announced the success of his plan, Agitra and Ilidu were forced to find shelter from the Brotherhood of Makuta armies that razed the southern Matoran Universe, though later began fighting against the Teridax's forces, battling menaces such as Rahkshi, Exo-Toa, and Visorak.

Forced to accept the downfall of the Great Spirit, Agitra went into hiding along with the rest of the Toa population. Joining the resistance forces, the Toa of Lightning would later journey south of Metru Nui, where she united with the disgruntled masses to fend off the Rahkshi army amassing in the Southern Island Chain.

Agitra and Ilidu encountering Sonitous

Once the Matoran Universe successfully landed on Bara Magna, Agitra and her Toa compatriots emerged onto the surface of the planet, where they allied with the Glatorian and Agori to fend off Makuta's Rahkshi, Skakdi, and Skrall forces. Fighting alongside her fellow Toa for the duration of the conflict, Agitra was relieved from battle with the Rahkshi with aid from Toa Tahu, who used the Golden Armor to vaporize the Rahkshi army. Mata Nui was then able to complete his mission of reforming Spherus Magna from Bara Magna, Bota Magna and Aqua Magna.

Abilities and Traits

As a Matoran, Agitra possessed a minuscule amount of Elemental Lightning energy, which she could manifest through means of weak electrical resistance.

Upon her transformation into a Toa, Agitra gained the ability to create, control, and absorb electrical energy, as well as projecting images made out of lightning. Owing to the nature of her Elemental Powers, Agitra possessed a natural reserve of pent-up energy, making her an especially swift and agile combatant.

Mask and Tools

Agitra wore a Great Zatth, Mask of Summoning, a mask that allowed her to reach out and telepathically compel any nearby Rahi to seek her out. The mask, however, did not permit her to control the Rahi once they were summoned, nor did it permit her to send the Rahi away. Often attracting Rahi that proved more dangerous than threats she summoned them to combat, Agitra remained conscious of Rahi sharing her general environment whenever calling upon her Kanohi and experimented with it extensively, eventually discovering that the mask would attract the most powerful predators and that it has no effect on Visorak.

Agitra wielded a Curved Combat Staff, a Toa Tool that could be wielded offensively or used to channel her Elemental Powers.
