Description

The Hero Factory minifig is there for scale reference as a Toa.

These titanic three-legged creatures roam across the Jungle and Water Regions of Okoto. They will bury themselves in the ground during states of dormancy every few years or so, and can remain in slumber for up to a century. Although they inhabit two elemental regions of Okoto, they much prefer to spend their active period in the Water region, where they can reproduce and live out their long lives. Their diet is unknown as they have never been observed eating, although it is believed that they are filter-feeders as they spend much of their time with their heads partially submerged. To any other lifeform, the Strider's method of locomotion seems somewhat awkward and impractical, but the Striders are able to make it seem so graceful. They have four short tentacle-like grasping appendages, which they use when caring for young and during the mating process. Instead of eyes, ears or nostrils, Striders possess a single large sensory organ located at the very front of their skulls. To the sides of this organ are a pair of tusk-like protrusions, which perhaps serve a purpose in communicating with each other while buried. Located directly under the organ is the Strider's "mouth", which can emit extremely low-pitched sounds that can be heard miles away. The Striders were in fact the template for the Living Turrets.
