Well, it has to. If it isn't then, why are they defeated when they're cracked in the head a good one and the kraata shoots out but, with the flexibility, and the staff, it is nearly impossible to even get hit in the head.
Anyway, a Rahkshi can block most of your moves. So, in conclusion kraata are like krana.

If you have any thoughts post em' or email me.

:silver:So there you go.

I don't think that they are entirelly like krana. I think they have their own free will and makuta doesn't control them or he would just send them and focus on a koro at a time (unless he's stupid or something)! He would also have them searching for the mol. I just think he created them. The toa probably defeat them by bending they will and controlling them into attackign each other ending in a mass rahkishi meltdown! «

A mass Rahkshi meltdown...Cool. But after reading GaliGee's "Road Trip with Makuta," I gotta like the Rahkshi. I'll be happy if they just lose their Kraata (they wouldn't even have to be tamed), but that seems unlikely...Sigh. As for the Kraata themselves, down with those icky multi-colored slugs! They should get destroyed.

The Kraata are somewhat like the Krana, but the Rahkshi are NOT like the Bohrok. The Bohrok can survive without the Krana, but the Rahkshi are just armor for the Kraata. If you take your jacket off, can it do anything by itself? It's the same with the Rahkshi.
And Exo-Infected-Kopaka, Makuta does have them searching for the mask of light.

Moving to Storyline & Theories...

The Kraata I believe aren't a direct source of a Rahkshi's power.

Because if a Rahkshi is created from a Kraata that has been exposed to Protodermis...why would it have a SECOND Kraata.

I'm guessing it'd be somthing like the Krana in that if the Rahkshi is disabled, the Kraata will spring forth and attempt to take over the Toa or whatever attacked it.

I really wish these guys came with more info right now. I'm dying to know how they fit in. And why Makuta doesn't just make an army of Rahkshi with a ton of Kraata. (He obviously has spares)

I think that the Kraata is there so the Rahkshi wont do anything off task. The Rahkshi arent mindless machines without the Kraata, but are just kinda stupid. But that is what i think.
-the ChEaPo!

Probably not Krana powers. I bet they are there as a second wave. If the rahkshi is defeated, they will infect their mask.
