Hoto are fiery insects that give off waves of Heat.
History
The Hoto species was created by the Makuta using Viruses and Liquid Protodermis to be one of the Rahi to inhabit the Matoran Universe.[1]
The Toa Hagah were once called upon to deal with a Hoto invasion, much to the disgruntlement of Toa Iruini, who considered this errand a waste of his talents.
Hoto bugs took up residence in Metru Nui, and the Ta-Wahi region of Mata Nui after the Great Cataclysm.[2] After 1,000 years, some Hoto controlled by Teridax harassed the Av-Matoran Takua as he journeyed through Le-Wahi in search of Toa Stones.[3] Hoto were later displaced by the prematurely-awakened Kohrak swarms, unintentionally causing destruction on the surface as they fled through tunnels.[4] The Mata Nui population of Hoto eventually returned to Metru Nui with the Matoran.[5]
After the Great Spirit Robot was critically damaged in the Battle of Bara Magna, many Hoto emigrated from the Matoran Universe to Spherus Magna.[6]
Abilities and Traits
The bodies of Hoto can give off Heat intense enough to allow them to tunnel through rock and earth, and even some buildings.[2]
