i haven't drawn any bionicle characters in over a decade, I'm pretty sure. 

           Harvali is a former, lost member of the Gukko Airforce. A natural explorer, historian, and archaeologist, Harvali used her position as a rider to travel between the Mega Villages, learning tales of Okoto’s past, in particular from Kokoro, where she would listen to Kylma drone all day long. Working with her lover Vira, Harvali would explore areas, helping her more artistic friend depict the locations she found on their maps. Due to her desire to explore, this naturally led Harvali to, riskily, land on the ground to walk amongst it, and even dig up artifacts. Despite Kongu’s warnings, Harvali continued on her passion, eventually being burdened by her desire to explore other parts of Okoto- Parts deemed off-limits by Vizuna.

           Despite pleas with Vizuna to try sending another search party, Harvali was refused. Thus, Harvali continued flying the same routes, finding the occasional new place with Vira’s help and support, but ultimately desiring, deeply, to see the rest of Okoto. She knew the airspace was too dangerous, and she knew the ground was littered with Skull Spiders- But if she could maintain a delicate balance between the two…

           And so, Harvali made secret plans to fly into the restricted airspace, low enough to avoid whatever caused the disappearance, and high enough to evade Skull Spiders. Harvali announced these plans to a despondent Vira, who feared for Harvali’s safety. The two argued, and put their foots down- Vira would not support Harvali in this reckless pursuit.

           Tearfully, Harvali agreed and bade her lover farewell one last time, the two taking a day out together in case Harvali never came back. And with that, Harvali got atop her Gukko at night, and flew off into the restricted airspace, past the designated highways.
