Makuta of Benevus

"[A] red blur caught the corner of the Turaga’s eye. His instinct formed a quick guess as to what it was, and his lips spat the word out like a toxin: “Makuta.”"

- Narrator, Trial of Iron

The Makuta are a dark and powerful species on the planet of Benevus who were created by the Great Being The Shadow.

History
The Makuta of Benevus were all created by The Shadow. The first was known as Vorcez, who became the first conquerer and a legend among his kind, after War of Shadows. This would tempt some of his brothers and soon the acts of the Makuta gained the disdain of other species.

However, being ill-prepared for war against the rest of Benevus, the Makuta isolated themselves in the Shadow Isles. Corvelan revealed to the Makuta that Vorcez had been killed by Xakan. The enraged Makuta retailiated by joining the Final Battle of Kattan, where many Makuta where killed when the Cordak Engine was detonated.

A small Makuta uprising occured two years after the great battle, blaming the rest of Benevus for what happened. They were defeated and driven back to the Shadow Isles where most of the surviving Makuta dwell.
