The Kanohi Akaku is the Mask of X-Ray Vision (also called Piercing Vision). An Akaku Nuva is created when a destined Akaku is exposed to Energized Protodermis.

The Kanohi Akaku can be used to see through most substances using the X-Ray spectrum. They are commonly outfitted with telescopic lenses.


The Great Kanohi Akaku allows the user to see through most solid materials, objects, structures, aerosols, etc. using the X-Ray spectrum. However, there are certain subjects it cannot pierce. These include lead (and protolead), protosteel, energized protodermis, the mist found in Karda Nui, and the walls of the Matoran Universe.

The Great mask is able to operate at a longer range than the Noble Akaku.

The Noble Kanohi Akaku allows the user to see through most solid aterials, objects, structures, aerosols, etc. using the X-Ray spectrum. However, there are certain subjects it cannot pierce. These include lead (and protolead), protosteel, energized protodermis, the mist found in Karda Nui, and the walls of the Matoran Universe.

X-Ray disks allows the thrower - however, not other beings - to see through an object hit by the disk.

Higher level disks increases the duration during which the object can be seen through.

Additional notes

Unless the GM rules otherwise, a Kanohi Akaku-wearer can take the zoom lens upgrade for free when starting a campaign.

Usage

The Kanohi Akaku is closely associated with Ko-Matoran due to it being the mask worn by Toa Kopaka in legends.

Kanohi Akaku are almost always outfitted with telescopic lenses to complement the power. Even powerless masks are usually outfitted with a lens.

Models

Two official Akaku models were made by LEGO: the standard Great and aerial Noble. Two official Akaku Nuva models were made by LEGO: the standard Great Nuva and aerial-adapted Great Nuva.

RSG has several unofficial Akaku models: the standard Noble (designed by Perp3tual and crafted by Petrus) (both a scoped and scopeless variant), Hordika (designed by Oomatu and crafted by HahliNuva), Modern Vanguard (designed by Perp3tual and crafted by HahliNuva) (both a scoped and scopeless variant), and Ancient Vanguard (designed by Oomatu and crafted by HahliNuva).
