Lariska is a stealthy and dangerous former Dark Hunter who was one of The Shadowed One's most trusted operatives.
History[]
Lariska was created by Mata Nui during the early years of the Matoran Universe.
Very little is known about Lariska's past, but she came from a land where every day is a battle for survival.
Lariska became a Dark Hunter some 10,000 years later.
Lariska was Hakann's first challenger upon his initiation into the Dark Hunters. He managed to bring Lariska down with a mental blast, but the Skakdi found her back on her feet with a knife to his throat the second he turned his back.
Sometime later, Lariska angered The Shadowed One so much that she lost her left arm as punishment. It was soon after replaced with a mechanical one.
Lariska was later among the legion of Dark Hunters sent to capture Metru Nui, which soon developed into the Toa-Dark Hunter War. While she was in Ga-Metru, she and Hakann spotted Toa Nidhiki walking in the abandoned streets. Instead of killing the Toa of Air, Lariska offered him the opportunity to betray his fellow Toa and win the city for the Dark Hunters. The next night, Nidhiki met with her again and ended up agreeing; Nidhiki planned to lead the full army of Toa into a trap at the Canyon of Unending Whispers, where the Hunters would ambush them from above. However, Lhikan discovered the betrayal, and when Lariska and her Dark Hunter legion revealed their positions, they instead found themselves surrounded by three hundred Toa. The Dark Hunters were forced to surrender and the war was ended. Lhikan sent all the Dark Hunters back to Odina, along with the shunned Nidhiki. The Shadowed One punished Lariska for her failure. She became close friends with Nidhiki after the war.
Lariska accompanied Nidhiki and Krekka on a mission to steal prototype Zamor Launchers. She distracted a Toa that had come to make a deal with the Nynrah Ghosts while the other two Hunters stole the weapons.
Much later, she witnessed Nidhiki's mutation. Terrified of what had happened to her friend, she fled back to the fortress immediately afterwards.
One of Lariska's later missions included executing a Toa of Gravity. To prepare for the fight, she trained herself with levitation Kanoka to simulate zero gravity. She killed the Toa and received payment for the job, which was given to the Shadowed One.
Lariska eventually left the Dark Hunters over a century later, going on her own separate path.
Abilities and Traits[]
Lariska is described as being tough and cynical. She is a limber being clad in dark teal armor and the size of Toa. Her left arm is completely mechanical after being punished by the Shadowed One. Although she is able to wear and use Kanohi like the rest of her species, she chooses not to do so.
Lariska is incredibly fast and agile and can perform astounding acrobatic maneuvers. She doesn't like to rest, preferring to move around; she has been known to spontaneously start doing somersaults and backflips. She can be very quiet when hunting, and she has senses so acute that she was able to detect Nidhiki when he was using a Kanohi Volitak.
