Kongu (Earth-4001)

Kongu was a Le-Matoran of Metru Nui. On Mata Nui, he commanded the Gukko Force. He later became a Toa of Air, serving as a member of the Toa Inika and later the Toa Mahri.

History
The history of Kongu prior to 2553 is the same as his mainstream counterpart.

Personality
Although the transformation into Toa startled Kongu as much as the others, he worked hard to put his feelings aside and do his duty. Like many Toa of Air, Kongu used humor to lighten up the other Toa and remain focused.

Powers & Equipment
As a Toa of Air Kongu could create, control, and absorb air, as well as many other things.

Like all other Toa Inika, Toa Kongu's air powers were supplemented by lightning. He and the others were also immune to the Antidermis virus. Kongu wore an organic version of the Kanohi Suletu, the Great Mask of Telepathy, which allowed him to read the thoughts and emotions of others, or project these thoughts and emotions into the minds of other beings. He also wielded a Laser Crossbow and multi-shot Zamor Launcher.

After being altered by the Ignika, Kongu's air powers were reduced to the point of a normal Toa, not having lightning entwined with them. As a Toa Mahri, Kongu wore the Zatth, Mask of Summoning, which called forth any Rahi to his side, though he did not have much control over whatever was summoned. Kongu used two Cordak Blasters. He chose to use two for one simple reason, which he summed up in two short words: "Two hands." Before this, he carried an unknown melee weapon.

Trivia
