Name: Kojol
Assigned Region: Artakha
Kanohi Tauran: Mask of Incomprehension
Status: Dead
Kojol was known for being arrogant and obnoxious by the other Makuta, due in part for his skill in rahi making and viruses, and partly because of his refusal to reveal Artakha’s location. After the Great Disruption, Miserix assigned him the island of Artakha to guard. He sided with Teridax after the Convocation, and was a key factor in his plan. When the Makuta evolved into gaseous forms, Chirox tested Kojol’s antidermis to determine its properties. At an unknown time preceeding his death, Kojol began creating, and later finished the virus that put Mata Nui to sleep. Kojol sent an army to attack Artakha in an attempt to retrieve the Avohkii, Mask of Light. After succeeding, Kojol began creating an armor eating virus, only to have it used on him by Tobduk, an Order of Mata Nui assassin. His antidermis was later destroyed in a foundry on Xia.
Kojol specialized in marine and aviated Rahi, with his most well known creation being the Proto Drake. He was known as one of the Makuta that primarily experimented with viruses. Before his attack on Artakha, Kojol was very secretive, using his rahi to protect the island even from the other Makuta. His refusal to share knowledge made him despised by the other Makuta, particularly Mutran and Bitil, who were nervous at how important Kojol’s cooperation was.
Kojol with his “Great Spirit Virus”
Kojol was not a fighter, usually preferring to use Rahkshi, Exo-Toa and Visorak to do his dirty work, but used a double-ended sword when he needed to.
He had a pair of wings that went mostly unused, unless he opened them to look imposing. His preferred method of transportation was on the back of one of his Rahi, or teleportation.
His mask was the Kanohi mask of Incomprehension, which can be used to scramble the language of written text and spoken words. He used this to further help keep his secrecy, encoding documents or experiments.

Weapon and “Great Spirit Virus”
Overall, this was a very fun MoC to build, I started with the wings and legs, and built up from there. The torso is a bit gappy, and from some angles looks a bit… portly? But if anything, I feel like it brings out Kojol’s puffy, prideful personality. His arm design is unfortunately uninspired, but I don’t think it detracts too much from the rest of the MoC. The head is a modified version of Sidorak’s, lifting the ‘mouth’ up a peg, and using a Knight’s Kingdom armor piece as a helmet. Not the fanciest of custom heads, but I usually prefer working with pre-made masks, and felt Kojol needed to be an exception. The wings were created with a function like the Kardas Dragon, and can fold and unfold all at once, which looks really cool in person. Unfortunately, a majority of the purple is CCBS and System, but I think I used it in the right places so it didn’t mess up the aesthetic. The lack of color on the back is intentional, but I do think it looks boring compared to the rest of the MoC. Overall, this MoC is far from perfect, but I think it looks very imposing, and certainly does it’s job.
This MoC was created as part of @Gilahu’s Book of the Brotherhood community project. There are some really cool MoC’s that have already been submitted, and I recommend checking it out!
