Shadow Matoran

From Lego Bionicle

Shadow Matoran were Matoran who had all Light drained out of them. They became corrupt and evil, and gained the ability to fire bolts of shadow energy. If a corrupted Matoran became a Toa, they would control the element of Shadow.

The Brotherhood of Makuta used mutated Kraata called Shadow Leeches to drain the light from numerous Av-Matoran, after which they served the Makuta operating in the Universe Core.

A Klakk could restore Light to a Matoran by their Sonic screams to break the barrier around a Matoran, Toa, or Turaga that kept new light from coming. Although the Shadow Matoran in Karda Nui were restored by Klakks' sonic screams, they still exibited Shadow abilities, probably because their bodies became accustomed to the extensive exposure to Elemental Shadow. All Shadow Matoran except Vultraz were cured by the Klakk.
