Helryx was the first Toa ever created and served as the leader for the Order of Mata Nui
History[]
Helryx was formed by the Great Beings thousands of years ago. Unlike other Matoran specimen, she was started off as a Toa. She was tampered with by the being Viluu when he was experimenting. At first, Viluu wanted Helryx to have no destiny, but the other Great Beings felt it was unwise to make the enforcer of virtues to have no virtues herself. As such, the Great Beings gave Helryx a destiny to lead as an example to the Matoran. Still, Helryx decided to not follow the Toa Code.
She became a member of the Hand of Arthaka and eventually the leader of the Order of Mata Nui. She oversaw the building of Metru Nui until Mata Nui granted powers to Dume's team. Once Toa Dume and his cohorts could be protectors of Metru Nui, Helryx opted to work full-time for the Order of Mata Nui.
Several incidents would occur related to Toa Aranu which prompted investigation by the Order of Mata Nui. The Draxians and the being Flagra prompted Helryx to reach out with Brutaka. Brutaka used his Masks of Dimensional Gates to help discover different dimensions that these beings came from. The investigation has been left open.
Abilities and Traits[]
Much like her prime universe counterpart, Helryx is fierce and quick to anger, unlike most Toa of Water. The ends justify the means to her, but the ends are always for the greater good.
As a Toa of Water, Helryx can manipulate or create water to do her bidding. She has also shielded her mind from mind-control due to confrontations with Tren Krom and other beings outside of the Matoran Universe.
Helryx wears a Mask of Psychometry, which allows her to learn lore or the history of an object or person by touching them. She carries a mace and a buckler, which reflects her rough and ready combat attitude, and has plenty of scratches across her armor.
