| “ | The earth shudders my brother. The seventh Toa has begun its approach. Again the prophecies of the Matoran oppose my will. Must i release those who should never see the light of day? I must preserve your slumber. Their Unity will be poisoned. Their Duty will be broken. Their Destiny i must shatter. Go my sons, use the shadows and keep my brother asleep. | „ |

| “ | Oh, my goodwill refused. My noble sons, bound in ice. So my hand is cast. Now i must pierce that which the toa hold dear. Anger amongst them will threaten their precious unity. Hunger will consume their duty. And fear will keep them from their destiny. They will not disturb you. | „ |

The Teridax's Rahkshi (also known as the Sons of Makuta) are the antagonists who served as the secondary antagonists in the 2003 storyline of the BIONICLE series.
They are the group of six known Rahkshi, who were created by Makuta Teridax upon learning of the existence of the Kanohi Avohkii and the prophecy of the seventh Toa's arrival and they were tasked of seeking the herald of the seventh Toa and steal the Avohkii in order to prevent the prophecy from coming to fruition, but their plans were interfered with by the Toa Nuva and their leader was defeated by Takanuva.
History[]
When Makuta Teridax heard of the discovery of the Kanohi Avohkii as well as the prophecy of the coming of the seventh Toa, he feared of his power and he uses the Kraata to create the first three Rahkshi; Guurahk, Lerahk and Panrahk and sent them to find the herald who was tasked of finding the seventh Toa and steal the Avohkii to prevent the arrival of the new Toa.
Later, Guurahk, Lerahk and Panrahk arrived in Ta-Koro and attack the area, taking out the Ta-Koro Guard easily. They then engaged two Toa Nuva members; Tahu and Gali in the battle. Despite the Toa's efforts, the three Rahkshi overwhelmed them as Lerahk poisoned Tahu's mask and destroyed Ta-Koro though they could not find the Avohkii.
The three Rahkshi then headed towards Ko-Koro and caught up with Jaller and Takua, who have the Avohkii with them. They then tried to attacked them, only to be attacked by Kopaka, the Toa of Ice. The three Rahkshi then chased them towards the lake as Kopaka defeated them and trap them in the lake with his Ice power, though the Rahkshi later broke free and continue their pursuit.
Upon sensing of the first three Rahkshi's failure, Teridax creates three more Rahkshi; Turahk, Kurahk and Vorahk and proceed to send them to destroy the Toa Nuva and find the herald once and for all.
Turahk, Kurahk and Vorahk then appeared into Onu-Koro and attack the village to find Takua, but they were attacked by Onua with Pohatu, then by Tahu, Gali, Lewa and Kopaka by destroying Onu-Koro..
Later, when Teridax's Rahkshi were survived and gathered in Kini-Nui and prepared to kill Jaller and Takua in order to take the Kanohi Avohkii. But they were intervened by the united Toa Nuva, Tahu and Lewa imprisoned Panrahk, Lerahk and Gurrahk in glass and Kurahk and Vorahk were handcuffed by Pohatu, then drowned in lava by Tahu, boiled by Gali and frozen by Kopaka, but Turahk arrived, attacked Takua and sacrificed Jaller, forcing Takua to use the Kanohi Avohkii to transform into Takanuva and destroying Turahk with a blast of light for good.
After the defeat of Teridax's Rahkshi, the Toa Nuva built the Issanui from the remains of Rahkshi and Bohrok-Kal for Takanuva to take to Mangaia to confront Teridax.
