[edit] History
Originally, Glatorian were soldiers who fought over the control of Energized Protodermis on Spherus Magna more than 100,000 years ago. When the planet split into three pieces they ended up on the large piece, which became Bara Magna. To avoid a war that could cause further devastation, the Glatorian were formed. Glatorian were warriors who fought on the behalf of their tribe for natural resources. Excluding Agori, who could not become a Glatorian. (Except if they were a vehicle pilot.) Glatorian were also the first to receive the benefits of these resources, and were paid through goods and services by their employers, the Agori.
They fought in arena matches that were governed by a code of rules. These rules included that a Glatorian won when their opponent called defeat or was unable to fight, and that after this calling of defeat, the fighting was to stop. The violation of these rules could lead to a Glatorian being exiled from their tribe to the wastelands.
Glatorian typically had a preference for a tribe they wanted to be hired by, usually the tribe they lived in, although they could be hired by another tribe as well. An exception in this system was the Skrall, as they worked for no one but Tuma.
Glatorian fought in the arena by themselves mostly, but some piloted vehicles, rode animals, or teamed up with an Agori partner. The Glatorian traveled to Roxtus, where they battled the Skrall, ultimately defeating the Rock Tribe.
[edit] Powers & Tools
Glatorian wielded typical weapons of swords, shields, blades, and usually a Thornax Launcher, and primarily relied upon physical strength and tactics. They rode Sand Stalkers and the Thornatus V9 as transports across the Bara Magna desert.
A few Glatorian were given elemental powers by Mata Nui, using the Ignika.
