Māui (pronounced “MAY-we”) was the only god born of mortal parents, and was the first man to die. He was a legendary adventurer known all over the islands for his clever trickery, resourcefulness, and daring. He had many successful adventures: he captured and beat the sun itself, he pulled the great island of Te Ika (pronounced “TAY ICK-uh”) up from the depths of the ocean with a fishhook, and he stole the secrets of fire from Mahuika by his trickery. But he failed in his final quest to win immortality for all of mankind. This failure cost Māui his life, and now all of mankind are doomed to die as well.

Even though he is dead, Māui is revered by the people of the Fire Islands for his bravery, his resourcefulness, and his noble spirit. His mask is pink, and decorated with a white crescent (symbolizing the jawbone club), a brown triangle (symbolizing the island of Ti Ika), and a red handprint (symbolizing fire.) During festivals and feasts, his presence is symbolized by a ceremonial scepter made from the jawbone of a large fish.

Māui belongs to the Fire Islands Pantheon.
