Description
The darkness of Makuta!
The kraata are a part of Makuta which he uses to bring the Rahkshi to life! These slug-like creatures are capable of infecting any Mask of Power they touch and making the wearer a servant of Makuta. Each kraata goes through six stages of growth, making the Rahkshi faster and more powerful with every evolution. Each set includes three randomly packed kraata. Collect all 36!
It is said that in the time before time, the dark spirit Makuta grew jealous of his brother Mata Nui and cast him into a deep sleep. As the Makuta's shadow fell across the land, the ancient values of the Matoran began to be forgotten. He corrupted the creatures of the island and awoke the destructive Bohrok swarms. From his own essence he created the kraata, slug-like creatures that spread his infection and control to whatever they touch. Makuta has taken many shapes to deceive the Matoran and the Toa, but in his favored form, he is a hulking and powerful being of pure darkness who carries an immense double-bladed staff.
Makuta wears the Kanohi Kraahkan, the Mask of Shadows, which can turn friend into foe and bring fear to the heart of the bravest champion.
Even the six Toa Nuva may not be able to put an end to Makuta's darkness alone.

Bionicle is a combination of 'biological' and 'chronicle' and deals with the inhabitants of Mata Nui, a once Eden-like island that has fallen under darkness of late by the rule of the Makuta. The legends tell of the return of six great heroes (called Toa) to fight the darkness and who will gather masks of power to challenge the Makuta, and restore peace to Mata Nui. Bionicle is the story of these heroes return to the island, their search for the masks and eventual challenge of Makuta.
The island of Mata Nui was named after the great spirit that brought joy and light to the island, and was initially a paradise. The islanders (called Tohunga) worshipped the goodness of Mata Nui and this made Makuta (the spirit brother of Mata Nui) jealous. Makuta cast a spell that caused Mata Nui to go into a deep sleep. Makuta then thought the Tohunga would worship him, and when they didn't he released darkness and wicked beasts onto the land to punish the Tohunga.
The Tohunga kept faith in Mata Nui and the legend that six heroes would come to help save them from the Makuta and return light and joy to the land. The Tohunga live in six villages and have protectors for each village. While the Tohunga are the common people, the protectors are called Turaga and each protects the legend of one of the Toa. The protectors are leaders of their villages in a political and religious sense and are slightly larger than the Tohunga and use the minor masks of power and weapons to protect their people.
The Toa are the heroes of legend and represent six elemental forces - air, fire, earth, water (the traditional four Greek elements) and ice and stone. Each of the six Toa represent one of these forces and each has a mask that aids them as well as a special weapon for their elemental force. The Toa are all much larger than the Tohunga or Turaga and along each elemental theme there is one Toa, one Turaga and one Tohunga.
The Makuta can express itself as many things and can become various beasts to plague the Tohunga. These are called Rahi and are controlled by infected masks. If these masks are removed they can be stopped and even tamed in some cases.
The Toa, Turaga and Tohunga all use the masks of power (or Kanohi) to aid them. There are twelve basic mask shapes, six of which are noble masks of power while the other six are the great masks of power. Each mask will come in a variety of colors that can be interchanged among the various characters, and the beasts of the evil Makuta will try to capture the masks from the heroes.
