Eclipse is a member of the reformed Order of Mata Nui.
Biography[]
Life Before the War[]
1000 years before the Great Cataclysm War, Eclipse was created by Mata Nui as a Fa-Matoran. He did maintenance on the Great Spirit Robot. As a Fa-Matoran, he used his limited elemental powers to maintain machinery in the Great Spirit Robot.
Eclipse was enslaved during the time the Brotherhood of Makuta reigned the Matoran Universe. He was forced to co-create various mechanisms for the Brotherhood, however nothing came of the creations. Eclipse was selected by Mata Nui to become a Toa and reform the Order of Mata Nui under Helryx.
Great Cataclysm War[]
As a member of the reformed Order of Mata Nui, Eclipse fought against the Brotherhood of Makuta. He dispatched several Makuta with the help of Crescent and Solstice.
The three Toa were soon overwhelmed by the combined strength of the Brotherhood. Eclipse attempted to fight a Makuta on his own, very easily being overpowered. Crescent intercepted an attack and took heavy damage. Solstice then launched a Lightning attack against the Makuta, leaving Eclipse an opening to crush the Makuta with his Gravity Axe.
After Miserix's essence was destroyed, Eclipse and Solstice reunited with the rest of the Order and defeated the last of the Makuta. Eclipse refused to believe Crescent fell in combat, insisting he was hiding somewhere.
After the War[]
Ambush in the Lost Continent[]
Eclipse was part of a team assembled by Helryx to track down a Bounty Hunter in the Lost Continents. The group was ambushed by an army of Skakdi. Eclipse and the Toa were able to fight their way through the army, but sustained damage from battling two Makuta.
He returned with the team back to Kehidupan to report the return of the Infernal Legion.
Battle against Abaddon[]
Eclipse attacked Crescent as the Shadow Toa attempted to kill Wira, teaming up with Solstice. He worked as a decoy for Solstice to use his Psionics powers to disable Crescent, but the two Toa were easily defeated by the Shadow Toa. Eclipse grieved as the Infernal Legion successfully completed their plan of sacrificing Wira to free Abaddon.
He attempted to attack Abaddon with his Gravity Axe but is stopped by Crescent. He grabs the Shadow Toa in an attempt to create an opening but is teleported away from the battle. Eclipse is joined by Suram and Antroz, and the three overpower Crescent. Antroz implies Crescent is hiding something before nearly killing him.
Eclipse attacks Antroz in rage, but is prevented from fighting the Makuta by Suram, who tells him to return to the fight with Abaddon. Eclipse then witnessed Abaddon kill Helryx, to which he screams in horror.
End of the Neirae[]
Eclipse was overwhelmed by Abaddon, who claimed to have created his Gravity Axe. He assisted the Toa Neirae in overpowering Abaddon by using his Gravity Axe and Magnetism powers. Kisa seemingly impales Abaddon in the stomach, but Eclipse is the first to realise that Abaddon used Solstice to create an illusion, and Kisa actually killed Odron. Abaddon then used the opportunity to decapitate the Toa Neirae leader.
Later, Yunak suggests to Helryx to appoint Eclipse as the leader of the Order of Mata Nui.
Personality and traits[]
Eclipse is strong willed; he will not give up until he has completed his current task. Eclipse believes in the strength of his allies, always trusting them in combat. He doesn't ask personal questions, not finding it necessary to know everything about his comrades.
His trust in his allies leads to Eclipse valuing them as friends. He would do his best to ensure his friends are not put into dangerous situations as his expense. Eclipse cannot bear seeing a friend in pain, offering the impossible in desperation.
While in combat Eclipse always fights with his ultimate goal in mind. He doesn't fight when he doesn't have to, always believing that laying down arms and talking is the best way to resolve something. Eclipse fights with his full strength, both unable and unwilling to hold back.
Powers and equipment[]
As a Toa of Magnetism, Eclipse can control metallic objects. His skill level is not as refined as most Toa; Eclipse can easily push large pieces of metal but has difficulty controlling smaller pieces and is not skilled enough to bend Protosteel. He does however use his Magnetism powers to lift his Gravity Axe because to its unnatural weight.
Eclipse carries a Gravity Axe, using his Magnetism powers to draw the weapon into his hand. This makes it difficult for him to use his Magnetism powers in other aspects but allows him to make the axe return to his possession if thrown. He combines this with his Sanok. Eclipse can manipulate the gravity surrounding his opponent when swinging the axe.
Using his mask of accuracy, Sanok, Eclipse shoots pulses of energy from his Nyrah Blaster. A single shot is strong enough to temporarily paralyse a Makuta. The blaster can only fire a pulse once every ten seconds, making the weapon difficult to utilise in one-on-one combat.
