Pohatu (DMU)

In the Dark Mirror Universe, Pohatu was an influential member of the resistance against the Toa Empire.

Dark Mirror
Pohatu, 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 were supposed to 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 Pohatu 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.

As a reward for serving Tuyet, Pohatu was given rule over Po-Metru. While he remained loyal to her and her goal, he started to have doubts about the morality of her actions after a while. Those doubts turned into fears when he discovered that she sent Nidhiki to kill the Nynrah Ghosts just in case they one day made something that could be used against her. This slaughter of innocent Matoran sickened Pohatu so much that he made contact with Lesovikk, the Toa Empire's #1 enemy, and offered his assistance.

When Takanuva arrived in the Dark Mirror Universe, Lesovikk took him to Pohatu. They requested Pohatu's help in raiding the Hall of Masks to get Brutaka's Kanohi Olmak so that Takanuva could return home. Pohatu commented that they thought "too small", because with Takanuva's added help, the resistance could stand a chance at taking Tuyet down. Pohatu alerted the other members of the resistance that the time had come for them to strike at the Coliseum.

During the battle, Pohatu smashed a hole in the wall of the Coliseum by slamming it with a giant fist of stone. He fought his way past the guards, but he was prevented from going much further by the sudden appearance of Onua. The two Toa began to fight, but found that they were evenly matched.

Dusk and Dawn
After the death of Tuyet, Pohatu was one of the surviving members of the resistance who attended a council mediated by Dume to discuss the future of their universe. During the meeting, Pohatu scoffed at Karzahni and the Shadowed One's suggestions that the Dark Hunters would just make a takeover, saying that there was no way they would rule without resistance. After the meeting, he and Lesovikk observed Teridax and the other Makuta discuss their sinister plans. Pohatu told Lesovikk that they would need help against the Makuta, since they were much stronger than the Toa they had previously fought. Lesovikk reassured Pohatu that he knew just who to contact.

Elemental Powers

 * Stone Control - Pohatu has complete control over most forms of stone, and can cause them to levitate or form objects.
 * Stone Absorption - Pohatu can absorb certain amounts of rock into his body, which becomes stored for use in future elemental attacks.
 * Stone Nova Blast - If he had to, Pohatu could release all of his elemental energy in the form of a nova blast, which would be an explosion of rocks large enough to devastate an area the size of a large city.
