== Story ==
Tahu slept for thousands of years inside a Toa canister. He eventually washed up on the island of Mata Nui, and was recruited by the [[Matoran]] and [[Turaga]] to find five [[Kanohi]] Masks of Power (six counting the Mask of Shielding he already wore) and to awaken the Grat Spirit, [[Mata Nui]]. Along the way, he met five other [[Toa]]--[[Lewa]], [[Gali]], [[Onua]], [[Pohatu]], and [[Kopaka]]. They became a Toa team, with Tahu as their leader. Together, they found all the masks, defeating [[Makuta]]'s [[Rahi]] while doing so.

After the Rahi threat ended, the [[Bohrok]] swarms attacked. Tahu helped to defeat them, and after doing so, he was transformed into a Toa Nuva. Then came the [[Bohrok-Kal]] and [[Rahkshi]]. Tahu was poisoned and then angered by Rahkshi, and thus turned against his own teammates. It took the combined powers of three Toa to save Tahu. He then helped to defeat the Rahkshi, and migrated with the island's other inhabitants to [[Metru Nui]].

Upon arriving at Metru Nui, Tahu and the other Toa Nuva learned that Mata Nui was not just asleep, but dying. The Toa Nuva traveled to [[Voya Nui]] in search of the Mask of Life, the one artifact that could save the Great Spirit. Unfortunately, despite an alliance with the island's Matoran, they were defeated by the [[Piraka]]. After the [[Toa Inika]] took over such a quest, the Toa Nuva went on a quest to awaken the Great Spirit. Eventually they met a being called Artakha, who fitted the Toa Nuva with Adaptable Armor for the final battle in Karda Nui, the core of the universe.

Tahu was one of the [[Mistika]] who explored the swamp of Karda Nui. There, he discovered the Codrex, a building of great power that was protected by a powerful forcefield. Six keystones were needed to unlock it. The Toa eventually found these keystones, and Tahu opened the Codrex. Afterwards, when Toa Ignika (who joined the Toa Nuva on their quest) awakened the Great Spirit with the price of his life, Tahu and the other Toa Nuva escaped. Unfortunately, Makuta's spirit possessed the Great Spirit's body (a giant robot) and took over the [[Bionicle]] universe.

When Makuta decided to conquer other universes, he traveled to [[Bara Magna]]. Tahu was inside Makuta's robot body, and escaped onto the planet. He was transformed into his original form by the Mask of Life, and was thus able to don the invincible Golden Armor for the final confrontation.
