Description
Power: water breathing, memory sharing
Tools: claws

Memory Crabs are a species of amphibious arthropods that were created by the Makuta long ago. They have the ability to exchange memories with a target on contact. This can be used as a defense mechanism, letting them show their would-be predators frightening glimpses of the past, causing them to recoil or flee. The Crab also copies a random memory from its target, which it can use later on. There is a limit to how many memories a Memory Crab can remember, although they sometimes span thousands of years. Anyone who touches a Memory Crab could bear witness to a long-dead civilization, or get the taste of the last thing it ate - the results are unpredictable, and the Crabs themselves seem to have little control over which memories they exchange.
The De-Matoran Shuh works with a domesticated Memory Crab named Mili. He uses her to catch glimpses of ages long past and occasionally as a messenger, although the nature of the Memory Crab's power makes this method unreliable. The bottom right picture shows Mili exchanging memories with Imoz.
