Chute Lurker

The Chute Lurker are Rahi which prefers to hunt in the interior of Metru Nui chutes. These creatures are capable of breathing liquid protodermis, and although they can breathe air just as well, they try to avoid being outside of chutes any more than they have to.

Chute Lurkers hunt by locking themselves in a place inside a chute with their arms (preferably at a sharp corner, where a travaler is less likely to spot the Rahi ahead of time), and they wait for something to pass close enough (such as another Rahi or Matoran) so the Rahi can grab it. Once caught by a Chute Lurker, there is rarely any escape unless aided by a Matoran or a Vahki.
