- " We were once brave warriors that faced countless threats on a distant land, in those days we never backed down from a challenge."
- ―Metztli on the Toa Echra
The Toa Echra were a Toa Team that resided on the Northern Continent of the Matoran Universe.
History[]
Origins[]
Around 14,362 years prior to the Great Cataclysm, several Matoran living on the Northern Continent (a Ga-Matoran, a Fe-Matoran, a Ta-Matoran, a Le-Matoran, and a Vo-Matoran) were left Toa stones by an unfamiliar entity. Upon activating these stones at their settlement Suva, they were transformed into the founding members of the Toa and named their team after their hometown on the Continent: Echra. Though not aware of each others personalities at the moment, they soon grew to recognize their own new abilities and ideas during their first task of taming a wild Rahi beast in the far east. After completing their first task, they finally established plans to venture to other islands and keep the Matoran Universe at peace.
The Addition of Khulste[]
As they travelled though, the Toa Echra came across minor problems on every place they touched, until they inadvertently came across a Toa of Earth with no affiliation wandering around their destination. Discovering the Toa to be Khulste from the Tren Krom Peninsula, their Leader felt he should join while a couple others remained skeptical about his timing. Eventually after an arduous discussion, Khulste tagged along towards their last foreign mission which turned out to be more difficult than imagined. An invasion of Dark Hunters had entered nearby Matoran Settlements on the search for a Bounty and were ruining the area. Through the usage of Khulste's skills and Earth-based powers, the invasion was handled and the Hunters retreated, earning the gratitude of the Matoran villagers as well as an honorary place in the Toa Echra.
Not much can be said about their following exploits, other than the fact that they all took place at small, various locations across the Northern Continent (though mostly within Echran borderlines. They usually tried to foil any plans a Makuta, would think up to disturb the peace, they even helped to rebuild any and all damaged Matoran settlements that were ravaged by such disasters and more.
