To balance Tahu for OU level play, the masks will not come with him, forcing him to rely on his base assets.
Reasoning: Legendary Toa of Fire from the Bionicle Franchise. He is a bio-mechanical warrior with fire elemental powers, so Fire/Steel. His signature move is primarily fire, but also hits targets weak to steel. A big part of Bionicle were the various mask powers the Toa would use, so for this, I gave him the six original masks, and gave each flavorful traits.
Tahu is a tanky with a good typing, and access to good moves, but has limited coverage, and lacks a decent ability.
Edit: Removed access to masks, leaving him good, but not the unpredictable specialized threat he is in CCEX.
