Frostelus are a mysterious species of intelligent beings.
History
A large group of Frostelus attacked Idjari and drove off or killed all the inhabitants.[1]
Later, a group of Toa claimed the fortress of the Makuta of Idjari, to store and protect the Makoki Stone. They did not examine the nearby icebergs which the beings used as camouflage and armor, and so did not realize that they viewed the territory as being theirs. The Frostelus killed all of the Toa in the fortress except for the young Lhikan.[2][1]
Since then, the Frostelus have permanently claimed Idjari for themselves.[1]
Two of the Toa Hagah, Norik and Iruini, also ran into some Frostelus during their travels, but they managed to defeat them by combining their elemental powers to create a cyclone of molten lava.[3]
Immediately following the Great Cataclysm, a group of icebergs inhabited by Frostelus appeared to the north of Metru Nui.[4] 1,000 years later, after the Matoran repopulated the city, this group made repeated attempts to invade, but Toa Takanuva battled them and drove them off.[5]
The Dark Hunters saw the Frostelus as being useful allies, and the Shadowed One sent Subterranean to discuss an alliance with them.[6] However, these negotiations went poorly.[7]
After the Great Spirit Robot was critically damaged in the Battle of Bara Magna, many Frostelus emigrated from the Matoran Universe to Spherus Magna.
Alternate Universes
The Kingdom Alternate Universe
In this alternate universe, the Frostelus were among the many beings that fled to the island of Mata Nui when the Great Spirit died. They made their home in the region of Ko-Wahi with the Ko-Matoran.[8]
Abilities and Traits
Frostelus are creatures that appear to be somewhere between a Rahi and a Toa,[4] housed within larger suits of armor. Their armor has both two legs and four arms; one pair of arms ends in sharp claws, whereas the other pair ends in large hook-like appendages. They have the ability to launch dual Rhotuka spinners from their shoulders. As a result of their intelligence and sapience, the powers of their spinners vary between individuals.[9] The Frostelus are also known to travel within icebergs, which serve as homes and protection for the Frostelus as they float across the sea.[5]
Frostelus are fiercely territorial, and are not afraid to attack in large numbers. Their attacks are devastating, and even Toa have fallen before them.[2]
Trivia
- It was rumored that the Frostelus were former victims of the Visorak.[4]
- In an alternate timeline created in the mind of Toa Lesovikk by Karzahni's Kanohi Olisi, Lesovikk's Toa Cordak joined forces with Lhikan's besieged team and saved them from the Frostelus.[10]
