History

Giant Squids attacking the Toa Mahri

Giant Squids are native to Great Sea of Spherus Magna, and continued to live there unperturbed after the Shattering.

1,000 years ago, when the Great Cataclysm caused the shattering of the Pit and released its inmates into the Black Water above, Barraki Kalmah discovered the Giant Squids. After asserting himself as a dominant creature, he trained and integrated them into his personal army.

At Kalmah's behest, a Giant Squid dragged Brutaka down into the Black Water, although he managed to kill it. Giant Squids guarded the cells of Toa Mahri Nuparu and Hahli when the Barraki imprisoned five of the Toa Mahri.

Giant Squids also participated in the Barraki-led attack on the Toa Mahri after the destruction of the Cord.

The Barraki were later recaptured by Hydraxon, and as such, the Giant Squids were released from service.
