Early Life
Over 100, 000 years ago, Chirox and the other Makuta were created by the Great Spirit who used the substance known as the Antidermis. After the Makuta species came into being, Chirox later became the member of the Brotherhood of Makuta after Miserix had founded the organization. He was then tasked of creating Rahi such as; Catapult Scorpion and Doom Viper to populate the Matoran Universe as well as serving the will of the Great Spirit. However, his creations were always twisted in spirit and contributed nothing of use to the environment. Chirox also work alongside with the his friend, Mutran who also served as one of the scientists of the Brotherhood.

After the construction of the Destral Fortress on the island of Destral, Chirox and Mutran attempted to salvage an experimental Rahi which was created by the fellow Makuta named Spiriah. Their effort was then interrupted by Makuta Teridax, who told them to go and see Miserix, who ordered that one of them was to accompany Icarax and his aide Pridak to a trade negotiation meeting in the island of Xia. Mutran was eventually selected to go on the mission while Chirox remained behind in Destral.

Sometimes later, Chirox created the snake-like Rahi that he named Lohrak, though Mutran came to disdain the Rahi.

Following the end of the Matoran Civil War on Metru Nui, Chirox was assigned by Miserix of supervising the region of the universe that included Keetongu's island and Tobduk's island. Later, he created the Visorak, the spider-like Rahi who later served the Brotherhood and he then unleash them on Tobduk's village and they destroy the village of the island, the Brotherhood renamed the island Visorak in honor of the spider creatures.

The Brotherhood of Makuta's Corruption
When Teridax demanded the Convocation to reveal his Plan of overthrowing the Great Spirit, Chirox was one of the Makuta who side with him. After Teridax overthrew Miserix and took over the Brotherhood, he began to discuss the strategy of the Plan with Chirox and Mutran, ignoring Miserix's threats of vengence.

After some months following the Brotherhood's corruption, Chirox discovered the existence of the Kanohi Avohkii and the reported to Teridax of his discovery. After that, Teridax ordered the attack on the island of Artahka to steal the mask.
