""What's the problem?" growled Icarax. "It's a rock."

"Well, true," I answered. "That is, unless it starts eating Xians and grows into a Mountain.
Still, what are the odds of that ever happening?"''

The Mountain is a living mountain on the island of Xia. Rahi and Vortixx that attempt to scale it are frequently "eaten" by its crevices and injured by its Acidic grass.

History

The Mountain was once a small, sentient rock created by Makuta Mutran to maintain as a pet project. During a visit to Xia he accidentally left it there, and over time it grew larger and larger until it reached its current size.

The Vortixx that live on Xia have a rite of passage in which two Vortixx must climb the mountain. If both manage to come back, they are given the chance of better working conditions, but if only one returns alive, he or she is given a special status because they showed they had what it takes to survive in the world.

At some point in time, the Brotherhood of Makuta attempted to export parts of the Mountain to Destral, hoping to add another asset to their formidable security. The attempt failed, as the living rock found that it liked the taste of the Visorak that were patrolling the island quite well.

During a battle on Xia between a Tahtorak and the Kanohi Dragon, the former having been dropped there by Order of Mata Nui member Botar and the latter having been held on Xia for some time, large chunks were ripped off of The Mountain. Despite this, no permanent damage was apparently done, as Toa Hagah Iruini took precautions to prevent the Mountain from consuming the Kanohi Dragon following its defeat.

Abilities and Traits

The Mountain "eats" by swallowing beings and absorbing them into itself. This process makes it grow larger over a long period of time.
