History[]
Early life[]
Prior of the start of the series, Miserix and the other Makuta were created by the Great Spirit with the use of the Antidermis over 100, 000 years ago on an island in one of the southern chains of the Matoran Universe. Soon after that, Miserix have founded the island named Destral and eventually formed the Brotherhood of Makuta and was appointed as their leader as the Brotherhood's goal was to maintaining the order of the universe.
Following the completion of the fortress in Destral, Miserix appointed Teridax as his trusted lieutenant. Aside his duty as the leader, he was also responsible for creating various Rahi breeds to populate the universe.
Teridax's Rebellion and Exile[]
When Mutran returned with the knowledge of how the universe worked he had gained from the being named Tren Krom, Teridax immediately demand the Convocation on Destral, something that no Makuta other than Miserix would do and had not asked his permission to do so. When Miserix heard of what happened and fearing that Teridax will take over the Brotherhood, he demanded Teridax to surrender, dismissing his "Plan" to overthrow Mata Nui as treason. Teridax attacked Miserix, claiming leadership of the Brotherhood as the other Makuta joined his rebellion.
Miserix was sentenced to death, only the Makuta who were supposed to carry out the execution imprisoned Miserix on the Isle of Artidax, an island far to the south of the Matoran Universe, where he was guarded by Rahi and other powerful beings. The chains shackled to Miserix weakened him, so he spent thousands of years absorbing some of the surrounding Rahi into his armor until he grew into a large dragon-like beast.
Freedom[]
A few millenia later, the Order of Mata Nui sent a team led by Brutaka to Artidax to track Miserix down, hoping to use his power in fighting the Brotherhood.
Brutaka and his team then tried to reason with Miserix, attempting to win him over to their side. Miserix spotted Spiriah, a rogue Makuta who was part of the team, and asked him to come forward. He promptly killed Spiriah by absorbing him into his body, as a reprisal for his betrayal. Brutaka's team then proceeded to free Miserix, breaking the chains that held him. Miserix then grew wings and fled, taking the remainder of Brutaka's team. Before leaving, he turned to the island that had imprisoned him and vowed to destroy it someday.
Miserix then traveled through the Matoran Universe, assisting his allies while seeking vengeance on Teridax.
Miserix is the last surviving member of the Makuta species at the end of the Bionicle series.

Trivia[]
- Despite his anti-villainous nature, Miserix is not the only Makuta to be betrayed by Teridax, since others like the Makuta Strike Force, Mutran and Icarax, Spiriah, Kojol, the Makuta of Stelt and Tridax are also betrayed by his usurper. Which makes his species as betrayed scapegoats and that Teridax is considered as the traitor of his species.
