Brakas

Brakas are monkey-like Rahi.

History
The Makuta originally created the Brakas by combining viruses in vats of Liquid Protodermis.

Brakas lived in Le-Metru and Ga-Metru on Metru Nui and were such pests that the Matoran petitioned Turaga Dume to have them banned. Dume, complying, had Vahki capture all the specimens and put them in the Archives, from which they escaped during the Great Cataclysm.

Some Brakas made their way to Mata Nui and lived in the jungles of Le-Wahi, where they continued to be an annoyance, often stealing fruit from Koro storehouses. These Rahi have since migrated back underground.

Some Brakas living in the Voya Nui region of the Southern Continent survived the region's ascent through the Southern Continent's dome.

==Abilities & Traits ==

Brakas are not especially dangerous, though they can work themselves up into a frenzy and become a mild threat to Matoran. They make a distinctive "kau kau" noise, which inspired the name of the Kau Kau Staff.

Because Brakas are presumed to have minimal intelligence, denizens of the Matoran Universe often derisively compare one another to Brakas as an insult.
