Parrea was the Makuta of Galria and a member of the Brotherhood of Makuta.

Biography

Parrea was created by Mata Nui alongside the other Makuta from a greenish-black liquid on an island in one the Southern Chains of the Matoran Universe. Alongside the rest of her species, she became a member of the Brotherhood of Makuta, an organization tasked with maintaining order and carrying out the will of Mata Nui.

Parrea was responsible for the creation of several Rahi breeds to populate the Matoran Universe during this early period, often creating more territorial but less prominent Rahi breeds, most notable of which was the Fusa, a breed of mammal Rahi suited to desert landscapes. Displaying some talent in the area, Parrea never fully committed to the role of Rahi Creator, however, possessing more interest in other disciplines.

After the Matoran Civil War, Parrea was assigned to supervise the island of Galria by Makuta Miserix, who felt she was the least likely Makuta to interfere in the delicate affairs of the fledgling Matoran colony that was struggling to establish itself. Complying with her role as protector of the island, Parrea at first nurtured the Matoran under her charge and helped them establish civilization before a group of Toa set up a large outpost on the island.

With a large desert biome occupying the western region of Galria, Parrea was also known to have forcibly established large numbers of Fusa, to the extent where the central desert region is nicknamed the Fusa Plains.

When Teridax demanded a Convocation to be held on Destral in order to reveal his plan and take over the Brotherhood, Parrea was one of the final Makuta to side with Teridax. With Miserix supposedly executed by Krika and Spiriah, Parrea offered tactical support to Icarax and Gorast, who assumed responsibility for hunting down and eliminating his remaining followers, hanging their Kanohi in the Convocation Chamber as trophies.

Like all other Makuta, Parrea's Antidermis evolved to a gaseous virus-like state where she no longer required sleep or sustenance. Teridax ordered the Nynrah Ghosts to Destral to modify the Makuta's armor to accommodate this evolution.

Great Cataclysm

1000 years ago, the Brotherhood of Makuta would finally set in motion Teridax's Grand Plan, with Makuta simultaneously launching an unexpected assault upon the processors of the Matoran Universe, disabling Mata Nui and causing the Great Spirit Robot to crash on Aqua Magna. With Mata Nui now distinctly absent and the Matoran Universe debilitated by Makuta Teridax's efforts, the Brotherhood revealed itself as a decidedly malevolent organization making a bid for universal domination.

During the Dark Times, Parrea notably remained on Galria, supervising the island and conducting research into a mysterious Labyrinth at its center. As such, Parrea took a less active role in the advancement of the Brotherhood of Makuta, occasionally supplying Rahkshi to offensive efforts.

Parrea conversing with a Turaga of Earth

Endeavoring to penetrate the Ancient Shrine in the dark underground recesses beneath the surface of the island, Parrea eventually came to require a Mask of Psychometry, requesting the delivery of one such Kanohi from Nynrah. Intercepted by the Order of Mata Nui, however, the Kanohi never reached Parrea and she was forced to venture off in search of the mask herself. Traveling to the territory of her long-time colleague, Makuta Bitil, Parrea confronted a Turaga of Earth, entreating him for his Noble Mask of Psychometry by offering to rid his village of its Catapult Scorpion infestation, which had come to prey on the local Matoran. Using her Rahi Control and Anger capabilities to make the incumbent Rahi turn on each other, Parrea claimed the Turaga's mask as her secondary Kanohi.

Returning to Galria, Parrea would spend the following years attempting to access the Ancient Shrine, eventually growing obsessed with the arcane glyphs and runic inscriptions.

Following the Battle of the Universe Core and the reactivation of the Great Spirit Robot, Makuta Teridax came to usurp Mata Nui as the operator of the Matoran Universe. Using his vast resources to spawn legions of Rahkshi, Teridax enacted a mass-genocide of the Makuta species so that his rule would continue uncontested by his former allies, an event that led to the destabilization of Parrea's Antidermis composition and swift death in the cavern beyond the Ancient Shrine of Galria.

Abilities and Traits

Given her fascination with reanimated Fusa and reclusive sensibilities, Parrea was considered something of an outcast by her fellow Makuta and was left to her research in isolation. Despite her allegiance to the Brotherhood of Makuta, she also proved reluctant to create Rahkshi to support the organization's military campaigns.

As a Makuta, Parrea possessed powerful elemental Shadow powers, abilities which after many centuries of use, she had fully mastered. She could even use her Shadow powers to heal others, should she feel it necessary. She also possessed shape-shifting abilities, Kraata production, great strength, and the forty-two Kraata powers.

Tools and Masks

For the majority of her life, Parrea wore a Kanohi Tryna, Great Mask of Reanimation, a Kanohi that enabled her to animate the corpses of dead beings, commanding them to perform basic tasks until she lost concentration.

Sporting a wide arsenal of Protosteel weaponry over the centuries, Parrea armed herself principally with a Rotating Razor Shield, which served as both a defensive and offensive tool capable of channeling her Shadow powers. Prior to the Invasion of Karda Nui, Parrea notably equipped herself with a Tridax Pod.

Trivia

• Parrea's name was derived from the word Pariah.
• Parrea was designed with a dark tan color scheme due to the lack of Stone-themed female characters in the wider BIONICLE toyline. She also sports a Kanohi Tryna, one of the few Immoral Kanohi unseen on a Makuta in official release.
