Taiki (Metru Nui)

Taiki is a Le-Matoran native to Metru Nui.

Metru Nui
Little is known about Taiki's life on Metru Nui prior to the Great Cataclysm other than he lived and worked in Le-Metru. He was captured by the Vahki under the command of Makuta Teridax, disguised as Turaga Dume. He was then forced into a Matoran Sphere but was later rescued by the Toa Metru and awakened on the shores of Naho Bay on the Isle of Mata Nui when the Toa Metru sacrificed their Toa Power and became Turaga Metru for the Matoran's sake.

Mata Nui
Due to the effects of the Matoran Sphere, Taiki's body was reduced in size and he forgot memories of his life on Metru Nui. After arriving on Mata Nui during the beginning of The Dark Time, Taiki worked for the construction of Le-Koro, under the direction of Turaga Metru Matau, utilizing melted pieces from the Airships that the Toa had use to travel to Mata Nui with the Matoran. On Mata Nui, Taiki became a Gukko Force pilot. He was usually was on-duty patrolling the skies of Le-Wahi. During a Rahi attack on Le-Koro, Taiki, Tamaru, and the other Gukko Force Members were the only ones to evade capture by the Nui-Rama. They hid themselves from view when they heard the sound of Takua's arrival in the village, but when they heard him play a flute they emerged and welcomed him. Later when the Nui-Rama came to attack the village again, Taiki rode a Gukko into battle. Turaga Matau and the other Matoran of Air were freed with the help of Toa Mata Onua. When the Bohrok attempted to remove all life on Mata Nui, Taiki was one of the Le-Matoran to be captured by the Bohrok and have his Kanohi replaced by a Krana. The Krana was taken off later, when Kongu and Tamaru led them into an ambush by the Boxors, defeating the Bohrok and freeing the village. Later, after the Bohrok-Kal had been defeated, Taiki and his fellow Matoran were rebuilt into more physically powerful forms.

Return to Metru Nui
Taiki later helped in the construction of Boats to facilitate his, and the other Matoran's return to Metru Nui, where he now resides. After Teridax revealed himself following the awakening of Mata Nui, and Rahkshi swarmed the city of Metru Nui, Taiki's fate is unknown.
