Salamandra, Glatorian of Fire

After the Toa sealed Makuta back to the Shadow Realm & left Okoto to return back to the stars, their absence left a power vacuum. Among the warriors to rise from the aftermath is the Glatorian of Fire: Salamandra. Salamandra is an ancient gladiator of Okoto that had been revived by Makuta. When the Toa sealed Makuta back to the Shadow Realm, Makuta’s mind control hold on Salamandra weakened & the proud gladiator broke free of Makuta’s influence. Salamandra is unfamiliar with the current era of Okoto as he led a lifestyle of near constant fighting in the ancient Glatorian arenas. There is much he does not understand about modern Okotan life but the timeless virtue of Duty has led him to defend the villagers of Okoto from the remnants of Makuta’s forces. While at first Okotan villagers were wary of Salamandra, they have in time warmed up to him & vice-versa. The Okotan villagers provide food & shelter to Salamandra while also telling him the tale of the Toa & how he reminds them of Tahu.
