Golden Kanohi were an ancient and mysterious set of masks known to contain the powers of six Kanohi.

History[]

Crafted by Artahka at the behest of Toa Helryx, the first Golden Kanohi were created many centuries ago for the Toa Mata. These six Kanohi contained the powers specific to a Hau, Kaukau, Pakari, Kakama, Miru, and Akaku and were intended to aid the Toa in achieving their destiny.

Roughly 1,000 years after the Great Cataclysm, when the Toa Mata were summoned to the island of Mata Nui, they were tasked with collecting a number of Great Kanohi scattered across the wilderness. Completing this trial, the Toa assembled in the center of the island. Placing their masks onto scaled carvings of themselves, their Golden Kanohi were teleported onto to Kini-Nui.

Donning the masks, the Toa descended into the Mangaia, the lair of the late Makuta Teridax, who had been menacing the island throughout the Dark Times. Utilizing their masks for the first time in this confrontation, the Toa proved unable to defeat the Makuta in this early first encounter, returning to the surface to find that the island's Rahi population was no longer being controlled by Infected Kanohi.

The Toa would continue to wear their Golden Kanohi during the ensuing Bohrok Invasion that ravaged Mata Nui shortly after their first confrontation with Makuta. Travelling across the island, the Toa used a variety of mask powers to aid them on their quest to collect eight different breeds of Krana before descending into the Bohrok Hive in Po-Wahi. After a lengthy skirmish with the Bahrag Queens - Cahdok and Gahdok - the Toa were submerged in a pool of Energized Protodermis. Undergoing a transformation, the Toa surfaced with enhanced armor and capabilities, their Golden Masks lost to them.

Whether other Golden Kanohi exist to be found within the Matoran Universe remains distinctly unclear.
