Kualus (Earth-4001)

"I am doing the same thing Toa do. I am saving one who cannot save himself."

- Kualus

Kualus was the Toa Hagah of Ice. He was formerly one of the six Rahaga.

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

Personality & Traits
Kualus was fiercely protective of all flying Rahi, and even spoke in their language at times, adding clicks and whistles to his sentences. He taught this language to Nuju.

Powers & Abilities
As a Toa of Ice, Kualus could create and absorb ice. This also gave him the ability to control ice, create snowstorms, and travel via ice bridge. These abilities were lost when he was turned into a Rahaga, but he regained his powers when Roodaka turned him back into a Toa. As a Rahaga he could also communicate with flying Rahi.

Equipment
Using his staff, Rahaga Kualus could summon flying creatures or warn them of danger by blowing through it and playing it like a flute. He also had a Boomerang Rhotuka spinner, which attached to a Rahi and then brought back to him. According to Dark Mirror, he carried a Sub-Zero Spear and a Rhotuka Launching Shield as a Toa and wore a Mask of Rahi Control as well.
