Dweller in the Deep

"She never noticed that those two jagged outcroppings had been massive teeth, or that their owner objected to her intrusion. She kicked her legs and swam, even as a pair of massive jaws prepared to snap shut upon her."

- Narrator, Trial by Fire

The Dweller in the Deep is a massive marine Rahi.

History
The Dweller in the Deep was created by the Makuta using Viruses and Liquid Protodermis to be one of the Rahi to inhabit the Matoran Universe. The Dweller in the Deep made its home in the bottom of the Silver Sea, near the Great Temple. The Dweller eventually came to possess a Great Disk between its teeth.

After journeying to Ga-Metru in search of the Great Disk, Toa Metru Nokama dove under the sea and eventually located it. She discovered it stuck in between the Dwellers teeth, though she did not recognize the presence of the Rahi, and mistook the teeth for rocks. Once she retrieved the disk and started to swim away, the Dweller in the Deep emerged from the sand and silently followed her. She took notice of the Rahi and immediately led it towards the surface, where the Rahi was then used as a distraction for the nearby Vahki who meant to capture Matau, Vhisola and Orkahm. The four then promptly escaped with the disk in possession. The creature soon returned to its home beneath the sea.

==Abilities & Traits ==

The Dweller in the Deep is extremely massive, and was rumored to be large enough to swallow the Great Temple whole.

It was said to be the only being to prey on Tarakava, though it preferred to eat Great Temple Squid more.
