The BIONICLE combination model Pit War Tortoise was released as a combination set in January 2007 in the LEGO Brickmaster magazine. They served in Carapar's army and the fiercest one served as his steed. Carapar mounted each tortoise with twin squid launchers. Pit War Tortoises have since lived for over 10,000 years.

History[edit | edit source]

The tortoises were some of the first Rahi ever created, brought into existence by the Great Beings and placed on the Southern Continent. When the Great Cataclysm caused the Voya Nui landmass to dislodge from the Matoran Universe and rocket to the surface of Aqua Magna, several tortoises were carried with it.

When the coastal city of Mahri Nui fell into the ocean, these specimens went down with it, and were mutated by the Pit Mutagen in the Black Water. The tortoises were recruited by the Barraki Carapar into his undersea army, and the fiercest served as his personal transport in battle.
