Air

"Matau pushed his powers to their limit, forcing the air around him to swirl violently. Suddenly, he was in the center of a whirlwind which sucked the breath from his lungs."

- Narrator, Trial by Fire

Air is an Elemental Power.

Matoran Universe
In the Matoran Universe, Air is often represented by the Matoran prefix Le- as well as the color green.

Matoran
 * Le-Matoran represent the Element of Air and come in different shades of green. Le-Matoran also contain a very minuscule amount of elemental Air energy, to the extent that they are extremely athletic and nimble. All Matoran, Toa, and Turaga of Air are male.
 * Toa of Air possess the Elemental Power of Air, allowing them to create, control and absorb air. Their only real limitation is that when they run out of Elemental Air Energy, they must wait for it to recharge.
 * Turaga of Air possess small traces of Elemental Air power.

Makuta
 * Rahkshi and Kraata of Cyclone and Makuta have limited Air powers.

Skakdi
 * A Skakdi of Air would only be able to access their power if they worked with another Skakdi, or if they carried a weapon that would allow them to focus their powers individually.

Examples

 * Creating blasts of wind or focused beams of air.
 * Creating cyclones.
 * Controlling air.
 * Manipulating wind currents.
 * Manipulating/absorbing air to create a vacuum.
 * Setting a timed air blast. (Toa Nuva-exclusive)
 * Unleashing an Air Nova Blast.

Combinations

 * When combined with the Elemental Power of Water, it can be used to create a storm or a water cyclone.
 * When combined with the Elemental Power of Fire, it can be used to create a tornado of fire.
 * When combined with any other five different Elements, or if the powers are manipulated by the Krahka, it creates a Protodermis cage around the target that is only breakable by a second union of the six Elements.
