"Subterranean" is an effective Dark Hunter assassin.

Biography
Many centuries ago, when the Toa/Dark Hunter War was still raging on, an Onu-Matoran was helping to build a new section of the Archives under Ga-Metru when the tunnel ceiling collapsed. Mutagenic chemicals in a Ga-Metru laboratory above the dig site poured all of its contents onto him when it caved in, and mutated him into his current state.

When he finally emerged from the rubble, his new form terrified his friends. Shocked, he left the city with the Dark Hunters, and he has served as a Dark Hunter since then.

He is currently active, and the Shadowed One recently dispatched him on a mission to discuss alliance with a group of Frostelus, on the theory that he is one of the few beings uglier than they are.

Subterranean was part of the mass evacuation out of the Matoran Universe after Teridax's defeat.

Abilities & Traits
Subterranean has the power to disassemble anything he touches. He can temporarily hypnotize his opponents with a mere glance. The accident in Metru Nui created a major side effect to his mutation: it enhanced Subterranean's hearing to the point that even the slightest sound is painful to him, and due to that reason, he is equipped with new armor which will dampen sound, although he still avoids Toa of Sonics in any way possible.
