(Elemental Power)
Elemental Powers are special powers known to be wielded by four species: Matoran (Toa and Turaga included), Bohrok, Makuta and Skakdi. There is no official definition for an Elemental power. However, many agree that to make an ability an Element, it must fulfill two prerequisites: A Toa must have been seen to wield it as a natural power (except for Shadow, Time and Life) and for it to be a central force of nature. Elemental Power is not the same as Toa Power. Unlike Toa power, when a Toa's elemental Energy is exhausted, he/she will not turn into a Turaga. Elemental Power will regenerate over time. The powers of Time and Life are both considered Elemental as well, but are not wielded by Toa for various reasons, such as being too powerful to control.
[carve] Elements and Powers
[carve] The Six Basic Elements
Multiple species wield these Elements, including Matoran, Skakdi, and Bohrok.
[carve] Other Elements
Every being has a small natural balance of Light and Shadow, which is connected to that character's moral alignment (though a few have an unnatural imbalance). Only a few can wield such Elements without deliberately creating such an imbalance: Av-Matoran and Toa of Light can access Light powers, while Makuta could use Shadow powers even before they rejected their Light.
Also, Light is intertwined with the other Elements; if a being loses their Light then they will lose their natural Element as well, gaining Shadow in its place.
These elements are not as common as the six basic Elements, but are still wielded by multiple species, including Matoran, Makuta, and Bohrok-Kal.
[carve] Powers
These powers have only been seen used by the Lehvak, Lehvak-Kal, Keelerak, Kraata, Makuta, Rahkshi and Silence.
[carve] Legendary Elements
These Elements are incredibly powerful, and represent fundamental forces in the universe. Each of these elements has a corresponding Elemental Kanohi.
[carve] Combined Attacks
Certain elements when used with others create combined attacks, or a new substance . Here are some of these combinations:
- Fire and Air: This combination can create glass, if sand is present (used by Lewa and Tahu in Mask of Light and Swamp of Secrets, and by Vakama in Po-Metru in Trial by Fire).
- Air and Water: Can be used to summon a thunderstorm. Used by Gali and Lewa to try to stop the Bohrok from attacking Ta-Koro.
- Fire and Ice: Able to create an instant seal. Seen when Tahu and Kopaka sealed off the entrance to the Kraata storage cave. This is achieved through the fire-user melting the substance around an opening, then when molten substance covers the opening, the ice-user freezes it.
- Fire and Stone/Earth: Able to create lava.
[carve] Toa Combined Attacks
The following combined attack can only be performed by Toa.
- Any six elements: Creates a Toa Seal of solid Protodermis - Used by the Toa Mata to seal the Bahrag and by the Toa Metru to seal Teridax.
- Note that Light and Shadow cannot be combined to create a seal as their powers cancel each other out.
[carve] Skakdi Combined Attacks
The following combined attack has only been seen performed by Skakdi:
- Fire and Stone: Creates a creature composed of both. - Demonstrated by Avak and Hakann in an attempt to further convince the Voya Nui Matoran that they were Toa.
