Kraata

Kraata are slug-like creatures that are created from the essence of a Makuta.

Description
Kraata can become Rahkshi by touching Energized Protodermis if they are destined to do so or disintegrate if not. Kraata can take control of a Rahkshi of the same power by entering the compartment on the Rahkshi's back.

Kraata are capable of infecting Kanohi masks by touching them, placing the wearer under the Makuta's control. There are 42 different breeds of Kraata able to identified by color, each containing one of the Makuta's many powers alongside the shared ability to infect Kanohi. All Kraata can also go through six main stages of growth, identified by the shape. There is also a seventh stage which very few Kraata can enter called Shadow Kraata that can infect Kanohi from a distance. Shadow Kraata are identified by their purple color but can be of any shape of the previous six stages.

One Kraata was experimented on with the same energies that turned Bohrok into Bohrok-Kal, turning it into a sapient being called Kraata-Kal. That being joined the Dark Hunters.

Makuta Mutran mutated Kraata into Shadow Leeches that drain the moral light of their targets.
