Spine Slug
Rahi
Known locations Zakaz[1] (formerly)
Spherus Magna[2]
Wherever Skakdi can be located



Spine Slugs are Rahi native to the island of Zakaz and form a parasitic relationship with the Skakdi.

History

The Spine Slug species was created by the Makuta using Viruses and Liquid Protodermis to be one of the Rahi to inhabit the Matoran Universe.[3] They were native to Zakaz,[1] where they established a parasitic relationship with the Skakdi.[4][5]

The six Piraka carried Spine Slugs on Zakaz.[6]

After the Mata Nui Robot was critically damaged in the Battle of Bara Magna, the surviving Spine Slugs left the Matoran Universe with the Skakdi and immigrated to Spherus Magna.[2]

Abilities and Traits

Although Spine Slugs are parasitical, they are harmless to their Skakdi victims. Spine Slugs latch onto the spines of a Skakdi, and seem to be nourished by the Skakdi's battle rage. Some believe that the slugs actually feed that rage, causing the Skakdi to continue fighting and providing more nourishment.[4]
