Toa Vashari

Formerly known as Savari, Toa Vashari is an amphibious Mahri Toa from an alternate Mata Nui of another universe.

## History

### Beginning

Toa Savari was never a Matoran. Much like Tahu and his team, Savari was built as a Toa and placed within Mata Nui in a small underwater village by the southern islands. He led a team of young Toa who were apprentices to the one remaining Toa of the team before them. While the other five of that team had transformed into Turanga, their leader, a Water Toa named Talerigh, remained.

Talerigh was the strongest person under the great sea. Being a Mahri Toa of Water gave her great power and strengh, and she was well respected. She stayed a Toa to train Savari and his team. Talerigh was a master swordswoman, an art that Savari quickly took a liking to.

Savari trained for many years with Talerigh, while the other five "slacked off," as he put it. None of them were prepared for the attack.

A powerful Necromancer, Kulta the Skull Grinder, tore across the southern islands with an army of undead warriors. Talerigh led Savari and the other Toa against the invaders but were outmatched. Without any options left, The Toa led the Turaga and the Matoran to the only safe place, the surface.

The Toa successfully led the Matoran to the island above their underwater village, but Kulta and his army were approaching fast. Talerigh and the other Toa stayed on the beachhead while Savari led the Matoran and Turanga across the island.

When they reached the other side of the island, where a transport was waiting, Savari loaded the Matoran and Turaga onto the vehicle, but went back to the other Toa. When Savari arrived back on the other side of the island, he was already to late. Kulta and his army stood victorious over the bodies of six dead Toa.

Savari challenged Kulta to a duel, which the Necromancer foolishly accepted. Taking Talerigh's sword, he found rage inside himself, a rage that allowed him to savagely kill Kulta. With their master dead, the undead army fell to pieces. Savari was alone.

Savari didn't know where the Turaga had taken the Matoran, he couldn't know just in case Kulta had captured him. With nothing else to do, Savari buried his friends on the cliff looking over the beach.

And there he stayed. Unmoving, weeping, for weeks. Until a strange Onu-Matoran appeared.

### Toroks Dimension

Savari would go one to meet Hanah, learn from Xia in art drink mixing, and teach a class on sword fighting.

### The Secret Mission

One day Torok call Savari into a private meeting. Believing he could turn to no one else, Torok requested that Savari undergo a top secret mission. Torok was put into a very uncomfortable, and private situation. Agreeing, though reluctant, Savari was sent to another world, a version of Spherous Magna that was millions of years advanced.

Savari found himself in what was called a Metropolis, a mega city unlike anything Savari had ever seen. Meeting his contact, a GlatorIan codnamed Osiris. Osiris explained that the gigantic building at the center of the city was a casino, where the own was planning on hosting a high stakes card game for money and slaves. Savaris mission was to rescue one of those slaves. Osiris didnt know who the slave was, the reason they needed rescuing, or where to even go find them. The only to find out was to win the game.

Savari would first have too replace one of the invited players who luckily enough no one knew exactly what he looked like.

## Personality

Vashari is often perceived as cold and emotionless when in fact he is the opposite. He acutally loves too much, which has resulted in all of the tragedy in his life.

This deep-seeded love makes him a very strict instructor, believing that discipline leads to safety.

## Powers and Abilities

Through years of training Vasharis natural abilities are much higher than the average Toa, as well as his Elemental powers over Fire.

Vashari is a master swordsman, and has the natural ability to learn how to use any weapon his picks up.

As a Mahri Toa, Vashari can survive in most environments like under water or in the vacuum of space.

Vashari is adept at using pure Toa energy as a weapon, most commonly in the form of the Hirodora.

Vashari is a very adept bartender having picked up the craft from Xia, a resident of Toroks dimension.

Vashari is a very competent teacher having taught a variety of beings, such as Solorok, Varo, and Salih, and even teaching Petram the Hirodora through a mind like from Rahzakea.

Vasharis major weakness is that cares too much about people, which has led to most of the tragedies in his life.

The Hirodora is a powerful energy bomb made from pure concentrated Toa energy that explodes out ward in a massive dome. It is usually shaped like a Rahi or Kanohi based on the users personality, and is always fired from the hands or fingers. Vashari can change the size in order to control the radius of the explosion.

The Konoryu is a more powerful Toa energy attack than the Hirodora. Though it dosent explode in the same way, it has more pure destructive power. It always forms the shape of a dragon with the body of a tornado, the spiraling motions giving it drilling power. The Konoryu is always project from the Users leg in a sycthe kick. This technique requires five times the amount of energy, and almost always leaves the user completely drained.

## The Meaning of Vashari

The Vashari Brand is givin to those who break sacred laws. An anceint punishment from an unknown reality, those who bore the mark were meant to wander forever, cast out from society. The Vashari are forced to forever fight in a never ending battle searching for the meaning of the word. Though The Vashari know the meaning of the mark, they are forbidden by the magic of the mark to speak it, and can only be relased from it by asking someone else for its meaning.

The meaning of Vashari can not be told, it can only known. The number of people who know it's meaning are few in even the Dimension that it orginates.

Known Individuals who the meaning are: Toa Vashari, Torok, Solorok, Hanah, Velika(deceased), Makuta Teridax(Evil, deceased), Mata Nui(Various Versions), and potentially other trans dimensional beings.

## The Knights Of Vashari

The Knights of Vashari are a group of six various beings who were all marked the Vashari curse. Though Vashari has not met with them for a long time, eventually they willl all come together in the new world. Vashari himself will lead them as a strike team. The other members are an alternate version of Rolvik, Makuta Antroz from the same world as Gold Teridax, an alternate version of Takua who was transformed back into his Matoran form, a sixth memeber who has yet to be made, and Hanah who volunteered to be with her Conjux Endura.

## Relationships

### Hanah

Hanah was/still is Vashari's Conjunx Endura. They met long ago when Vashari first arrived in Torok's Dimension when he was still known as Savari. He met her at the popular Xias Nightclub. They are both still very much in love with each, and are equally saddened by the fact that they cannot be together.

In the New World, Hanah has volunteered to take on the Vashari title after finally succumbing to her feelings for her Conjux. The thousands of years apart finally becoming to much for her to endure. Though sad to see her go, Torok grants her wish.

### Torok

Back in the day Savari was Toroks closet friend. He treated him as an equal instead of a God. He helped train the people in swordsmanship, and even had a hand in creating Solorok. Until Savari was forced to break Toroks one and only rule, by murdering another of the residents. Torok was forced to uphold his one rule, and branded him Vashari and banishing him out into the multiverse. Despite everything, Vashari and Torok are still somewhat friends. Torok will appear if Vashari becomes desperate enough to call. Should Vashari ever die, Torok will appear and obliterate everything in sight, then precede to restore everything.

### Varo and Salih

After having lost there friend and being save by Vashari, Varo and Salih came to idolize Vashari. Vashari came to care for them deeply in return. Vashari taught them how to fight and use a sword as well as fight symbiotically with him in emergency. Kind of like Soundwave and his minicons.

### Glacies and Petram

Vashari sees them as friends and students as well, and understands that they are a bit skeptical of him.

### Solorok

Savari and Hanah went on a mission to retrieve a special ebony ore that was radiated in the singularity field of a black hole. Its uniqueness was perfect to forge into Soloroks containment armor, it was indestructible with Torok being the only one who could mold it, and it could handle the extreme tempatures of Soloroks body. Vashari also named him and trained him in the art of the sword. Vasharis banishement was very hard on Solorok, almost entirely changing his world view.

### Insidian

Almost off the bat Vashari and Insidian didn't like each other. After his short time with the Empire, Vashari decided to challenge Insidian for his mask. Vashari won, leaving the dark Toa broken and unconscious as well as taking his mask.

### Rahzakea

Vashari and Rahzakea seem to have a mutual respect for each other. Whether or not that they like other is yet to be seen.

### Teridax

Adverse to each other at first, Vashari and Teridax have an understanding as well as mutual respect.

### Arilam and Orokal

Vashari first met one of them in the Fortress, he question whichever one it was trying to look for an excuse to let him out of the prison. He tried to appeal to Vasharis sense of honor, vanity and other things trying to convince him to let him out. Vashari left, but left the keys behind anyway. Vasharis not really sure which is which, but he respects them enough to fight at their side.

### Ticeli

Vashari and Ticeli don't really like each other that much, but it dosen't come across a hostile. They mostly make fun of each other.

### Sylah

Vashari is very sympathetic to Sylah and is willing to help her if she would only ask him too.

### Shadus(Main)

Vashari thinks Shadus is too wild and would benefit from learning patience and meditation from him and the citizens of the Water District.

### The Avarage Citizen

Vashari treats the average citizen like any Toa should, with respect. He's open to teaching whoever wants to learn the arts of swordsmanship, meditation, hand to hand combat, or share a simple drink at his bar.
