Pohatu (DMU)

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

Early Life
Pohatu and the rest of the Toa Mata were 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 the Toa 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. Though he remained loyal to her and her goal, he started to have doubts about the morality of her actions after a while. Those doubts were confirmed when he discovered that she had sent Nidhiki to kill the Nynrah Ghosts just in case they ended up creating a weapon that could one day be used against her. This slaughter of innocent Matoran sickened Pohatu so much that he made contact with Lesovikk, one of the Toa Empire's primary enemies, and offered his assistance to the rebel cause.

Resistance against Tuyet
When Takanuva arrived in the Dark Mirror Universe, Lesovikk took him to Pohatu, who he knew could help Takanuva retrieve Brutaka's Kanohi Olmak from the Hall of Masks. Takanuva was confused to see Pohatu awake, because he and the other Mata were supposed to be asleep until such a time as they were needed to awaken Mata Nui, so Pohatu told Takanuva about how Tuyet had found and awakened them prematurely. Pohatu also told Takanuva and Lesovikk that they thought "too small" by wanting to raid the Hall of Masks, because with Takanuva's added help, the resistance could stand a chance at bringing Tuyet down. Pohatu then used his powers to create a tremor which notified the other members of the resistance that the time had come for them to strike at the Coliseum.

In the attack on the Coliseum, Pohatu slammed the outer wall of the structure with a giant fist of stone. He fought his way past the guards, but 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 that they would rule without resistance. After the meeting, he and Lesovikk observed Teridax and the other Makuta discuss their plans. Pohatu told Lesovikk that they would need help against the Makuta, because they were much stronger than the Toa they had previously fought. Lesovikk reassured Pohatu that he knew just who to contact.

Elemental Powers

 * Stone Creation - Pohatu can create stone from both his hands and his Toa Tools.
 * 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.

Mask Powers
