Origin and function#

The PitThe PitThe Order of Mata Nui's maximum-security underwater prison where the Barraki warlords were held until catastrophe broke their chains. MutagenMutagenPit Mutagen was a power-source energy that leaked into the waters of The Pit during the Great Cataclysm and mutated almost every being exposed to it. was engineered for a single purpose. The Order of Mata NuiThe Order of Mata NuiThe covert organization founded by Helryx to serve the Great Spirit directly, operating in concealment from a fortress on Daxia and waging the open war against the Brotherhood of Makuta that decided the fate of the universe., building the PitThe PitThe Order of Mata Nui's maximum-security underwater prison where the Barraki warlords were held until catastrophe broke their chains. as a prison for beings too dangerous to leave free and too valuable to execute, needed a containment measure that worked even when every other layer of the prison failed. Physical cells could be broken. Walls could be breached. Guards could be killed or subverted. The MutagenMutagenPit Mutagen was a power-source energy that leaked into the waters of The Pit during the Great Cataclysm and mutated almost every being exposed to it. addressed the failure case directly. If a prisoner broke through every other barrier, the MutagenMutagenPit Mutagen was a power-source energy that leaked into the waters of The Pit during the Great Cataclysm and mutated almost every being exposed to it. in the water surrounding their cell would already have done its work on them. The escapee would emerge unable to breathe air. The surface, and any return to ordinary life, would remain closed to them by biology alone.

The substance was suspended in the seawater throughout the trench complex and its immediate surroundings. Long exposure was required. Short immersion was not sufficient to trigger the full transformation. The duration needed varied by species and individual constitution, but the effect was reliable enough that the OrderThe Order of Mata NuiThe covert organization founded by Helryx to serve the Great Spirit directly, operating in concealment from a fortress on Daxia and waging the open war against the Brotherhood of Makuta that decided the fate of the universe. treated it as a guarantee rather than as a probability. Once a prisoner had been in the MutagenMutagenPit Mutagen was a power-source energy that leaked into the waters of The Pit during the Great Cataclysm and mutated almost every being exposed to it.-saturated water for the requisite time, the transformation was irreversible by ordinary means. The being's lungs were rewritten. Gills, fins, or analogous water-breathing organs were imposed by the substance's restructuring of the host biology. Whatever shape the prisoner had walked into the PitThe PitThe Order of Mata Nui's maximum-security underwater prison where the Barraki warlords were held until catastrophe broke their chains. with was no longer the shape they would walk out in, because they would not walk out at all.
