Lesovikk is a guilt-ridden Toa of Air who once led the Toa Cordak.
Biography
Early life
Lesovikk was created as a Le-Matoran and lived on an island in a village with his friends Sarda and Idris.[1][2] Lesovikk was eventually transformed into a Toa and led the Toa Cordak, the first Toa Team.[3][4]
During an encounter with a wandering tribe of Zyglak, Lesovikk hesitated for a fatal second and his entire team, including his closest friend, Nikila, was killed.[5] Since then, he has felt that he is no longer worthy of being called a Toa. When he returned to his village, he found out that the Turaga had gone mad and had sent the entire Matoran population to Karzahni, including Sarda and Idris. He then spent tens of thousands of years wandering the universe, looking for his friends and trying to redeem himself.[6]
Hiatus
On his journeys, Lesovikk met Toa Jovan, fought the Rahi Nui, defended an island from a group of Visorak, and explored unknown lands in the south.[7][8] He also fought a wounded Rock Lion in an attempt to put it out of its misery, though the Rahi defeated him in a lengthy battle.[9] His wanderings often took him as far north as Karzahni, but he failed to get past the Manas protecting it and find his friends before they were sent to the Southern Continent.[6]
Less than 3,500 years ago Lesovikk acquired the Sea Sled from his homeland.[10][11]
Following Karzahni's departure from his homeland, Toa Krakua sought out Lesovikk and told him that Karzahni had allied with the Zyglak and was going to attack Mahri Nui. He also informed the Toa of Air that, in the event of Karzahni's defeat, someone would take the tyrant away.[12][13]
The Pit
Lesovikk then traveled to Mahri Nui and was mutated by the waters.[14] While searching the area, he spotted Sarda in the midst of a school of Takea, and rescued the Matoran.[15] After landing on the ocean floor, the two were attacked by Karzahni, who sought to sharpen his skills by battling a Toa.[16] At first, Lesovikk was unable to resist him because of his own self-doubt, but Sarda's encouraging words rekindled his long lost courage and gave him the strength to break free of Karzahni's Flaming Chains.[6] Lesovikk broke off the battle when Sarda was endangered by Karzahni. He swore that he would not just stop Karzahni, but completely end his threat by destroying him.[17]
He and Sarda later stumbled upon a mutated Idris and took her along. Lesovikk witnessed Karzahni's defeat at the hands of Teridax in his Maxilos shell, but knew from his past experiences that a wounded enemy did not necessarily mean an easy battle.[9] He and the Matoran followed Karzahni until he took refuge in a sea cave. From there, Lesovikk proposed to construct a trap for Karzahni made from weapons in the Barraki's weapon caches.[18]
Karzahni then activated his Kanohi Olisi, putting Lesovikk into a vision of the day his teammates died. However, this time they were confronted by a sentient acid cloud because of Karzahni's insanity.[19] Rather than having his teammates killed by it, Lesovikk summoned a cyclone and destroyed it. During this, Lesovikk was thinking that what was happening was not what was meant to, but was so overjoyed that he dismissed those thoughts and was entrapped in the vision.[18] He went through another lifetime while trapped within, even learning that had his teammates not perished they would have helped save a fortress of Toa from being destroyed by Frostelus, and meet Toa Lhikan, whom Lesovikk would have considered recruiting to the team.[5]
Lesovikk managed to emerge from the vision after Nikila mentioned Zyglak, triggering his real memory of his team being killed by Zyglak.[5] He then saved the Matoran, who were being chased by the tyrant, making Karzahni spring the trap Sarda and Idris had rigged before. After he repaired a Breathing Helmet he had found, Sarda told Idris to take it. Lesovikk agreed to let Sarda come with him, and both swam away into the ocean.[13]
Lesovikk and Sarda began hunting down escapees from the Pit,[20] and eventually met up with Hydraxon's replica, ultimately joining him in the recapture effort. When Hydraxon received a message from Helryx to draft prisoners into the Order of Mata Nui's army, Lesovikk was informed of the organization's existence.[21] Later on, he left the Pit to help with the Order's war efforts.[22]
When Teridax was killed and the Matoran Universe left endangered, Lesovikk evacuated for Spherus Magna.[23][24] Once there, a wave of energy unleashed by the Kanohi Ignika cured his mutations and made him amphibious.[25]
Spherus Magna
Lesovikk later discovered that Karzahni had been let loose, and confronted Toa Nuva Kopaka and Pohatu about it. Not satisfied with Kopaka's offer to organize a search party in the morning, Lesovikk immediately set out to find the tyrant.[26] He soon encountered Velika, who defeated him and stole his Air Sword.[27] Lesovikk was later spotted heading north by Gali and Tahu, who were returning from an unsuccessful mission to find a site for New Atero.[28]
Going after him, Pohatu and Kopaka discovered Karzahni's body with Lesovikk's Air Sword discarded nearby, and came to suspect that he might have killed Karzahni, a violation of the Toa Code.[26]
Alternate Universes
Toa Empire Alternate Universe
In the Toa Empire Alternate Universe, Lesovikk became the top enemy of the Toa Empire. He completely disagreed with Tuyet's rule over their world, so he struck out against her by stealing artifacts that she wanted. Toa Takanuva met Lesovikk when he attacked the caravan of Jaller, Bomonga, Kualus, and Takanuva to steal the Kanohi Vahi. Lesovikk used a cyclone to destroy Pewku's cart and knock Jaller unconscious, and another to blow away Kualus and Bomonga.[29]
Lesovikk then accompanied Takanuva back into Metru Nui, where they ventured to the Throne of Stone and Pohatu. The two then revealed to Takanuva the entire resistance group and planned to lead one final strike against Tuyet and the Toa Empire.[30]
In the battle outside the Coliseum, Lesovikk was struck by an Ice dagger, but managed to blow Kopaka off his post on top of the Coliseum, killing the Toa of Ice. He then told Takanuva to journey into the Coliseum while the rebels made a final attempt at defeating Tuyet's army.[31]
Unnamed Alternate Universe
Toa Lesovikk and his team arrived at the Toa Fortress in time to save Lhikan and the Toa present in the Toa Fortress from the frostelus.[32]
Abilities and Traits
Due to his hesitation, which led to his team's death, Lesovikk blames himself for causing their deaths, and considers himself unworthy to be a Toa. His self-perceived failure to live up to the standards of the Toa exempts him from the Toa Code, and he is willing to kill his opponents. Despite this, he still chose not to kill Karzahni, despite having had two chances to do so.[33]
As a Toa of Air, Lesovikk can create, control, and absorb air. This allows him to create windstorms and cyclones, and manipulate air pressure. After entering the Pit, he became a water breather.[14]
He was granted the ability to breathe air by Mata Nui with the use of the Ignika, and has become amphibious.[25]
Mask and Tools
Lesovikk carried an Air Sword, which could focus his elemental powers. He wears a Kanohi Faxon, which allows him to copy the powers of Rahi that share his environment. He sometimes rides a Sea Sled with a Cordak Blaster attached to it. After Hydraxon drained the Pit, he acquired an apparatus to breathe in the new environment.
