Defrejj is a Po-Matoran gemologist and inventor native to Mazra Nui, and an ally of the Order of Mata Nui.

History

Originally hailing from Mazra Nui, Defrejj established himself as a prominent jeweler known for crafting exquisite pieces adorned with rare gemstones. His creations were highly sought after by the elite of the island.

During a visit to Metru Nui, Defrejj initially sought to learn from the carvers of Po-Metru. However, he quickly became disenchanted with his carving lessons and found himself drawn to the vast knowledge contained within the Onu-Metru Archives. It was there that he encountered Onepu, who inspired him to become a scholar.

Upon returning to Mazra Nui, Defrejj delved into the study of gemstones used in his craft and made remarkable discoveries regarding their unique properties. Notably, he unveiled a crystal with the ability to harness and focus immense amounts of Toa Energy. This finding, recorded by Defrejj, would later contribute to the creation of the Nui Stone.

Gemologist Career

Defrejj swiftly gained recognition as a distinguished gemologist due to his dedication to crystal research.

One day, he received an anonymous commission for six large gems symbolizing Matoran Principles. Eager to fulfill the request, Defrejj crafted the Crystals of Courage, Purity, Faith, Creation, Prosperity, and Peace. To his astonishment, the mysterious client revealed himself to be Artakha, who was deeply impressed by Defrejj's craftsmanship.

Recognizing his exceptional talent, Artakha extended an invitation for Defrejj to reside in his kingdom. Defrejj accepted Artakha's offer and relocated to the island of Artakha. Over the course of the following millennium, he devoted his expertise to the advancement of crystal technology. During this period, he not only designed his personal vehicle, the Hoi T2, but also played a role in the conception of Artakha's Crystal Serpents.

Order of Mata Nui

Several years later in Metru Nui, the Nui Stone met its destruction, leaving fragments embedded within the armor of Toa Tuyet. Recognizing the importance of unraveling the stone's secrets, the Order of Mata Nui sought assistance from Defrejj, given his indirect involvement in its creation. Defrejj agreed to join their cause and started his research within the pocket dimension where Tuyet was imprisoned. He underwent specialized training from the Order to aid in his endeavor.

For the next 1500 years, Defrejj pursued his studies, eventually succeeding in reconstructing the Nui Stone from the fragments concealed within Tuyet's armor. However, one day Tuyet managed to escape her confinement, fleeing with the Nui Stone and abruptly halting Defrejj's research. Consequently, he returned to Artakha and resumed his former life.

Spherus Magna

Following the events of the Reign of Shadows and Teridax's demise, Defrejj ventured beyond the Matoran Universe to establish himself on Spherus Magna. Setting up a successful jewelry store in Xianori, he garnered great popularity among the populace. Additionally, Defrejj contributed his skills to the creation of various artifacts, including Deriahk's Neon Laser Pistol, Vilrohk's third armor suit, and the widely utilized Chronicler Pack employed by the Chronicler's Bureau.

During the Xianori Rebellion, Defrejj embarked on an expedition to study the giant Lightstones housed within the ruins of the Codrex. It was during this research that he inadvertently absorbed an ancient energy surge upon direct contact with the Lightstones. Captivated by this newfound power, Defrejj took samples of the Lightstones for further analysis within Xianori.

Most recently, Defrejj journeyed to the New Takiw Nui, where his talents attracted the attention of Veuy. Commissioned by Veuy, Defrejj undertook the creation of a new set of adaptive armor.

Defrejj's values efficiency and aims to find pragmatic solutions to the challenges he encounters. This approach also extends to his work as a gemologist, where he utilizes his extensive knowledge of crystals to explore their applications and leverage their properties.

Despite his eccentricities and occasional absentmindedness, Defrejj finds inspiration to excel in his pursuits. This drive pushes him to engage passionately in his work, allowing him to uncover innovative ideas.

Powers

As a Po-Matoran, Defrejj possesses physical strength beyond that of Matoran from other elements. Notably, he deviates from typical Po-Matoran by being comfortable in the water and having the ability to swim.

Another unique ability of Defrejj is that he knows how to repair Matoran, which allows him to rebuild himself and fix some physical damage that he might sustain. He occasionally experiments with his appearance, as he made himself larger than most other Matoran, and has been known to switch his mask and armor colors on occasion.

Being an associate of the Order of Mata Nui, Defrejj's mind is shielded, rendering him impervious to telepathic intrusion and mental attacks.

Tools and Equipment

Defrejj wields a prototype variant of the Chronicler Pack, a multifunctional device that not only records his experiences but also harbors an extensive array of tools. With the aid of his pack, he keeps remote control over his personal vehicle, the Hoi T2, a jetpack he constructed with Artakha's aid.

In addition to these, Defrejj carries a gem-powered rifle for self-defense, a pickaxe to aid him in mining gemstones, and a messenger bag to accommodate essential belongings.
