'''Vican''' is a [[Le-Matoran]] who became the first [[Shadow Matoran]].

== Biography ==
Vican originally lived on an island situated in a lake in the center of the [[Southern Continent]].{{BookCitation|BL9}}{{OnlineCitation|TMC|10}}{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=104|post=4143}}

Hungry for adventure, Vican volunteered for [[Makuta]] [[Mutran]]'s experiment and became a [[Shadow Matoran]]. After the transformation, he acted as a lab assistant to Mutran, who also mutated him into his current form. Vican remained loyal to Mutran in the hope that he would be returned to his former form for serving well.

He accompanied Mutran to [[Karda Nui]], where he assisted Mutran in guarding the [[Shadow Leech Hive|Hive]] where the [[Shadow Leech]]es were kept and managing Mutran's experiments.{{OnlineCitation|TMC|1}}

Vican was working on kicking a failed Rahi experiment out of a window by order when [[Vamprah]] entered the hive after the Makuta's [[Battle in the Shadow Leech Hive|first defeat]] by the Phantoka [[Toa Nuva]]. After a negotiation between the four Makuta, [[Antroz]], [[Chirox]], Vamprah, and Mutran was held, Vican was chosen to be the one to fly to [[Destral]] and summon Makuta [[Icarax]]. Vican later rode on a [[Shadow Matoran#Hybrid|hybrid creature]] to Destral, where he encountered [[Rahkshi]] and {{p|Visorak|Rahi}}. Upon showing the creatures a [[Tablet of Transit]], Vican was allowed into the [[Destral Fortress|fortress]], where he learned that Icarax had taken over the throne of Makuta [[Teridax]]. After a moment of interrogation by the Makuta, Vican stated Antroz's summons to Icarax.

Vican then returned to Karda Nui. In a battle between the Toa Nuva and Makuta, Vican saved Mutran from falling after the Makuta unleashed a powerful blast of [[Shadow]] by catching him on his hybrid steed. He then carried out Mutran's orders to retreat to the [[Swamp of Secrets|swamp]] below.{{BookCitation|BL9}}

While the Toa and Makuta were [[Battle for the Codrex|fighting]] to gain entrance to the [[Codrex]], Vican ended up upon a small islet with Mutran, who created a [[Klakk]] to act as a sentry. The Klakk escaped and attacked Vican with a [[Sound|sonic]] scream that broke the mental barrier preventing his [[Light]] from regenerating. Vican concealed his change from Mutran, who sent him to recapture the Klakk. Vican encountered [[Takanuva]] and revealed he had found a cure for the Shadow Matoran. He led Takanuva, [[Tanma]], [[Solek]], [[Photok]], and [[Radiak]] to find the Klakk, which cured Radiak. The Matoran then went to find and bring all the Shadow Matoran to be cured.

Vican joined the Av-Matoran in fleeing from the [[Energy Storms]], ultimately making it to [[Metru Nui]].{{BookCitation|BL11}}{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=241|post=9611|lines=10-12,26}}

Following the [[Battle of Bara Magna]], Mata Nui sent a wave of [[Life]] energy throughout the planet that reversed the mutations that Mutran gave the former Shadow Matoran. Vican, however, wished to keep his mutated form, so he was not affected.{{GregCitation|CwGF|page=744|post=12928365}} As a result of the battle, the [[Great Spirit Robot]] was badly crippled. Vican and other surviving Matoran departed from Metru Nui to live on [[Spherus Magna]].{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=295|post=11800|lines=8,9}}{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=297|post=11859}}

== Abilities and Traits ==
Vican was an adventurous Matoran and dreamed of having more in life, not caring about the means by which it happened.{{OnlineCitation|TMC|10}}

While a Shadow Matoran, Vican could fire bolts of [[Shadow]] energy, an ability that was lost when he was transformed back into a Le-Matoran. However, because Vican was not an [[Av-Matoran]], he did not gain any other powers when physically connected to a Makuta. Because of alterations made by Mutran, he is larger than a normal [[Matoran]], and was granted claws and wings, allowing him to fly.

Despite being loyal to his master, Vican was also quite wary of Mutran's insanity, knowing that Mutran could have thrown him into a mutating vat as a joke. Vican also regretted how he looked{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=30|post=1194|lines=33,45}} and hoped that Mutran would one day cure him.

Having been transformed back into a Le-Matoran, Vican feels guilty for having willingly helped the Makuta and, as a result, works harder and is more helpful to other Matoran.{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=285|post=11378|lines=19,23}} He has retained his Kanohi Shelek and his monstrous form as reminders of his past mistakes.{{GregCitation|OGDi|page=241|post=9611|lines=10-12,26}}

Vican has increased agility in the trees, yet is clumsy on flat land. This was negated upon his transformation into a Shadow Matoran, but restored when his Light returned to him.
