Chirox
From Lego Bionicle
- "Didn't anyone ever tell you, Toa, how it was that Makuta evolved into pure energy encased in armor? We found we didn't need our bodies. We can strike down our enemies without flexing a finger or taking a step."

Chirox was a Makuta, one of the seven Makuta that invaded Karda Nui, the others being Antroz, Vamprah, Mutran, Gorast, Krika, and Bitil. He was skilled in mutation, along with Mutran. He thought little of Mutran's work however, complaining that his Rahi didn't have enough teeth nor enough intelligence.

[edit] History
[edit] The Invasion of Karda Nui
Chirox was one of the Makuta chosen to invade the Universe Core. When he arrived he was weakened and blinded by the light of the Ignika as it revived Mata Nui. This forced him to turn the leader of the local Av-Matoran, Kirop, into a Shadow Matoran so he could see through Kirop's eyes and share his knowledge. However, his and the other Makuta's arrival in the Universe Core caused the Ignika to turn silver. If it were to turn black, it would drain life from all living beings in the Universe, killing them.
During the assault, Chirox was responsible for turning Gavla into a Shadow Matoran. He also wounded Pohatu with a Shadow hand. When the Toa Nuva and their allies attacked the Shadow Leech Hive, Chirox, along with Vamprah and Antroz defeated Kopaka and Solek after they defeated Mutran. After the Makuta were defeated up in the Stalactite Villages, Chirox and the rest of the Makuta saved Mutran and retreated to the Swamp of Secrets.
[edit] Swamp Of Secrets
Chirox was wounded during the pursuit and spiralled out of the sky into the Swamp of Secrets. Lucky, the three Makuta stationed in the Swamp saw him and came to his rescue.
[edit] The Final Battle
He joined the Mistika Makuta in battling the Toa Nuva but had to wait outside the Codrex after they escaped. After Takanuva cured Radiak with a Klakk, Chirox and Bitil attacked him. Takanuva went out of control and wounded him and Bitil. When Kopaka calmed him down, Chirox and Bitil escaped. After Teridax's Plan succeeded, Chirox, along with all of the other Makuta inside Karda Nui at the time, was incinerated in the Energy Storm that struck Karda Nui as Mata Nui woke from his slumber.
[edit] Mask and Tools
Chirox wore The Kanohi Shelek, Great Mask of Silence. It allowed him to make someone deaf or mute for a while. He carried hook blades and a Tridax Pod. He could also extend his arms for fierce battles.

[edit] Trivia
- Chirox, like Mutran, specialized in Rahi creation/mutation, and in fact thought very little of Mutran's work, pointing out that the latter's Rahi never have enough teeth and weren't particularly intelligent.
- Chirox's name is derived from "Chiroptera", the scientific order of mammals to which bats belong.
