Bio: Tulkia, is a half-breed. Her her Father was a toa, mother was a Makuta. So sad, but she’s okay with that now. (I hope someone gets that joke)
Tulkia’s mother, the fearsome Hetrilka, was the lone ruler of a small spit of land in the southern island chains. She was known for her strict ways, and harsh punishments of rebellion. Like many Makuta, she had a toa assigned to her as a bodyguard. This Toa, was a toa of air, named Vektrol. Vektrol, when he was assigned to her, was disgusted by her atrocities, but served her faithfully regardless, as was his duty. However,he would do his best to lessen the blow to the people of her realm. What he didn’t know, was that Hetrilka saw this, and loved him for it. She tried to charm him through various means, flattery, gifts, and special accommodations. Eventually, he confronted her, and asked her why she did all these horrible things, yet be so kind to him? Before she could answer, he stormed away back to his room. Heartbroken, she began to look inward, asking herself what he means. That introspection changed her, and she began to see what she had been doing. She began to loosen her grip, issue relief efforts, and generally better the lives of her subjects. Vektrol saw this change, and began to fall in love with her as well. Eventually, almost year later, he proposed, she accepted, and they got married to great fanfare within her realm. They had a child, and named her Tulkia. For the next 3 years, they raised her in secret, as they knew that if the other Makuta found out, they wouldn’t hesitate to use her as leverage. However, when Teridax came by for his inspection, due every 5 years, he discovered Tulkia’s existence, and reported to Miserix. Miserix decided that Hetrilka had gone soft, and decreed that she step down. Before she could do so however, one of the other Makuta decided to send an assassin to kidnap the child. He was discovered however, and in the fighting, Vektrol and Hetrilka were killed. Tulkia however, was discovered by a middle aged matoran of plasma, and he raised her to adulthood. He taught her the three virtues, gave her the best education he could, and eventually taught her of her past. She resolved to return to her home, and reclaim her place as ruler. Whether she does so, is up to the friends and challenges she makes along the way.
