The Makuta are the species that served as the major antagonists in the entire BIONICLE series. They were originally intended to enforce peace and stability in the Matoran universe, until they became corrupted (except for Miserix, who remained neutral in this situation) and began an oppressive and genocidal campaign that spanned the entire storyline.
Not all Makuta are evil, as for the example of the alternate Teridax as he was the only Makuta to be a force of good because he purged his inner darkness and became the warrior of light. Miserix in the other hand, remained neutral due to his hatred towards Makuta Teridax when the latter betrayed him when taking over the Brotherhood of Makuta.

At the same time in the planet of Okoto, Makuta the Mask Hoarder was born alongside his brother, Ekimu and both of them worked as the Mask Makers as both of them are honored by the Okotans for their works.
