The Piraka are a group of six insane skeleton-like beings known as skakdi who went on a killing spree. Although not the direct opposite of Toa (But the Makuta Brotherhood rather), they went undercover as Toa. To a further extent, they are direct opposites of the Beta Trolls. Zaktan leads them. Their chests and weapons tell them what rank they are. Gold meant they were the first/second in line of command, silver meant third/fourth, and gunmetal meant fifth/sixth. Their whereabouts are currently unknown, though there is a possibility they were killed by attacks powerful enough to damage the spacetime continuum.

Personalities[]
Although they have personalities.
- Zaktan is often described as a turncoat by those in the know.
- Vezok flies into a brutish rage with little provocation.
- Hakann is just a general asshole to everyone nearby.
- Avak...well, rumor has it that his square root is a Glock 19.
- Thok hates socializing and prefers to be a lone wolf. He alone knows that the Piraka don't trust each other.
- Reidak: Remotely intelligent, but doesn't plan anything ahead of time, instead preferring to use brute strength.
Trivia[]
- It is said they are good rappers, hence their theme song.
- Being the leader of a gang of polynesian rappers associated with skull imagery, Zaktan has developed a fascination with Giant Isopods. This could make a good first impression on other such people...
- Their name means "thieves" or "murderers" in the Matoran language.
