Onua (DMU)

In the Dark Mirror Universe, Toa Onua was a member of the Toa Empire. While he survived the downfall of the empire, his current status is unknown.

Dark Mirror
Onua, along with the other Toa Mata, was created by Artakha over 100,000 years ago and tasked with awakening Mata Nui in case he ever fell asleep. Once the Toa Mata had completed their training, they were put into Toa Canisters in the Codrex, where they would remain in stasis until they were needed. However, when Tuyet rose to power, she chose to awake the Mata prematurely to add them to her empire. She brainwashed and lied to Onua and the other Toa Mata, making them believe that the only way to protect Mata Nui was to eliminate all threats to the empire. The Toa Mata as a team soon ceased to exist as a result.

Thousands of years later, when the resistance against Tuyet attacked the Coliseum, Onua was one of the Toa who appeared to defend it. He worked with Kopaka in the battle: When Kopaka froze Ahkmou solid, Onua shattered the Matoran into pieces with his claws. He then intercepted Pohatu when he tried to get into the Coliseum, and found that they were evenly matched.

Dusk and Dawn
After the death of Tuyet, Onua was one of the members of the fallen Toa Empire who attended a council mediated by Dume to discuss the future of their universe. Onua angrily growled that he will resurrect the empire to save Mata Nui, prompting Dume to tell him that Tuyet lied about the empire being beneficial to Mata Nui, and that she had likely poisoned his mind.
