Hikaki

The Hikaki, also known as Dragon Lizards or Lava Demons, are small Rahi resembling dragons.

==History ==

The Hikaki species was created by the Makuta using Viruses and liquid Protodermis to be one of the Rahi to inhabit the Matoran Universe.

On Metru Nui, the Hikaki dwelt in the Ta-Metru Foundries, sharing their territory with the Furnace Salamander. Following the Great Cataclysm, some Hikaki migrated to the newly-formed island of Mata Nui, settling in Ta-Wahi surrounding the Mangai Volcano.

During the attack of the Bohrok swarms, the Hikaki were forced to abandon their ancient nesting grounds. They were eventually permanently displaced by the actions of the Kohrak swarm, and returned to the Matoran Universe.

Hikaki also lived on the Southern Continent in the area known as Voya Nui. When the Great Cataclysm caused the region to rocket upwards and land on the surface of Aqua Magna, its Hikaki population was carried with it, with many surviving the ascent.

Abilities & Traits
Hikaki seem to thrive amidst molten lava, and an old Matoran legend says that the Hikaki actually feed on the fire. Hikaki are dangerous mainly when their nests are disturbed.

==Trivia ==


 * There were also certain Hikaki adapted to icy climates.
