He was created by Xeal to serve as Tren Krom's body guard during Mata-Nui's construction. When the Matoran Universe was complete, he joined and served in the Hand of Artakha. During his time, he personally sank a Xevthian warship, an event of which he'd eventually take pride in. When the group was disbanded, Zretiqux wandered the Matoran Universe. He saw the Brotherhood of Makuta as an incompetent group of thugs, and hardly considered them worthy of enforcing the law. One day, he finally snapped and assaulted Destral, killing a few Makuta in the process. He was defeated, only to be whisked away by Botar to The Pit for his crimes.
