Tanqax Nui are ogre-like rahi that live in or around underground lakes. They use their large claws for digging and are known for crafting incredible mazes in their habitats–which they navigate flawlessly with their senses of hearing and smell, in spite of being almost completely blind–and their jaws are much more powerful than they look.
Tanqax Nui do not prey on Matoran, but Matoran are generally advised to keep their distance anyway, as Tanqax are highly territorial and have been known to subdue prey much larger than themselves.
Trivia
This moc is made up of 127 pieces.
Like Mulgarath, I made this moc simply because I was inspired to try to make something primarily brown; in this case, the reddish brown seen in Avak.
I don’t have the block that’s standard for my bios here because I’m not quite sure how to do it for rahi yet.
