'''Lohrak''' are vicious winged [[Rahi]].

== History ==
Some time before the rise of the [[League of Six Kingdoms]],{{OnlineCitation|TMC|2}} the first iteration of the Lohrak species was created by [[Makuta]] [[Chirox]] using [[Virus]]es and [[Protodermis#Liquid Protodermis|Liquid Protodermis]] to be one of the Rahi to inhabit the [[Matoran Universe]].{{OnlineCitation|TMC|9}} Chirox's goal was to create a flying serpent with enough exterior slime to slither through small cracks, but not enough to leave a trail. The Lohrak he created, however, could not do so, which caused Chirox to work for a long time to perfect his creation. [[Mutran]] saw this as an opportunity to outdo Chirox, so he set to work trying to beat his rival.{{OnlineCitation|TMC|7}} Shortly before the [[Great Cataclysm]], Mutran succeeded in his work, and the old version of the Lohrak was replaced by the new one.{{OnlineCitation|TMC|9}}

The Lohrak were first discovered in [[Metru Nui]] by [[Onu-Matoran]] [[Miner]]s in [[Onu-Metru]] while they were searching for [[Lightstone]]s. The serpents quickly spread throughout the city and became a serious menace to the [[Matoran]]. Soon, every Metru had a tale of a frightening Lohrak encounter. [[Turaga]] [[Dume]], at one point, stopped all mining projects and announced the Lohrak a protected species, in the hopes of preventing more of these creatures from being unearthed.{{BookCitation|BA4|97|chapternumber=7}}

1,001 years ago, the [[Toa Metru]] and [[Turaga]] [[Lhikan]] stumbled upon a nest of the Lohrak while attempting to rescue the Matoran of Metru Nui from Makuta [[Teridax]]. They were able to fend off the Rahi, and escaped in a [[Vahki Transport]].{{BookCitation|BA4|chapternumber=7|startpage=97|endpage=100}}

Once the [[Visorak (Rahi)|Visorak]] arrived in Metru Nui, the Lohrak were hunted down and mutated into even more horrid creatures.{{BookCitation|BA7|72|chapternumber=6}} Some Lohrak fled through the [[Great Barrier]] to {{p|Mata Nui|Location}}, and made scattered appearances there for a period of 1,000 years.{{BookCitation|BEU|79|entryname=Lohrak}} These Lohrak migrated back to Metru Nui when the [[Toa Nuva]] [[Scroll of Preparations|unleashed]] the [[Bohrok]] on the island.{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=34|post=1357|lines=5,20}}

After the [[Great Spirit Robot]] was critically damaged in the [[Battle of Bara Magna]], all surviving Lohrak left the Matoran Universe and immigrated to [[Spherus Magna]].{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=300|post=11964|lines=5,12}}

=== Lohrak Hordika ===
When exposed to [[Hordika Venom]], Lohrak become '''Lohrak Hordika''', growing far larger and gaining the ability to emit sonic shrieks.

One Lohrak was cocooned and mutated into a Hordika in the [[Le-Metru]] [[Moto-Hub]]. Shortly before the Toa Metru arrived to rescue the rest of the Matoran, the Lohrak Hordika emerged from its cocoon and created a [[Sonic Entity]] with its powers. The Toa Metru defeated the Sonic Entity, and began to descend to the [[Archives]] beneath, where they encountered the Lohrak Hordika. The Lohrak Hordika forced the Toa upwards into the Moto-Hub and smashed a hole in the wall, which drew the attention of the [[Vahki]]. During the three-way battle that ensued, [[Nuju]] used his power to [[ice]] over the Lohrak Hordika's wings, impairing its ability to fly. The Lohrak Hordika then departed for [[Ta-Metru]], seeking a source of heat to melt the ice.{{BookCitation|BA7|chapternumber=6|startpage=71|endpage=77}}{{BookCitation|BA7|chapternumber=7|startpage=78|endpage=81}}

== Abilities and Traits ==
The Lohrak's bat-like wings allow them to fly at extreme speeds, and their rows of razor-sharp teeth make them highly dangerous. Lohrak use claws on the ends of their tails to snatch prey and carry them off in surprise attacks before finishing them off and feeding. Their flesh is also poisonous.{{BookCitation|BL10|100|chapternumber=5}}

Under normal circumstances, Lohrak are relatively small, but the mutant Lohrak was around 2.2 [[Society#Measurements|Bio]] (ten feet or three meters) long with a 4.4 Bio (twenty foot or 6.1 meter) wingspan. Exposure to [[Hordika Venom]] gave it a power scream ability similar to the Power Scream [[Rahkshi]]. Its screech emitted a [[Sonics|sonic]] force that could shatter rock, metal, and almost anything else. It also had the power to create [[Sonic Entity|creatures]] composed entirely of sonic force.{{BookCitation|BA7|72|chapternumber=6}}{{GregCitation|OGD|page=78|post=3083}}

== Trivia ==
* [[Krahka]] once took the form of a Lohrak.{{BookCitation|BA8|123|chapternumber=9}}
