LEGO Legends of Chima Wiki
“Not the snout!”
— Mottrot

Mottrot is a Legends of Chima minifigure released in 2014 and a major antagonist in Season 3. He is the prince of the Mammoth Tribe, the older brother of Mungus and the oldest son of Maula.

Biography[]

Mottrot is one of the smartest warriors in all of the Ice Hunter tribes, a master planner who has devised incredibly effective battle strategies. Unfortunately, he doesn’t get much credit for his brains. He is short, and among Mammoths that means you aren’t respected. And his mother, Maula, dotes on his huge, dumb brother Mungus. She gives Mungus the credit for all of Mottrot’s great ideas. Mottrot doesn’t object, because he doesn’t want to get his Mom angry at him. Mottrot can’t even get a little comfort when he gets hurt in battle. Maula will usually just blame him for being clumsy.[1]

History[]

In ancient Chima's past, Mottrot was the first-born son of Maula, the queen of the Mammoth Tribe and the older brother of Mungus. At some point, Mottrot became a student of the Phoenix Tribe, after the Mother Sun sent them after feeling pity for the early tribes. However, Mottrot and the rest of his tribe would join Sir Fangar in his quest to rule Chima. The Phoenix Tribe decided to stop the hunters with the Great Illumination, which consisted of nine Phoenix warriors sacrificing themselves using Fire Harnesses and healing the hunters. However, Fluminox, the king of the Phoenix Tribe who was suppose to be the ninth Phoenix, decided not to join his fellow Phoenix due to not wanting to leave his infant son Flinx an orphan. As a result, the Illumination was imperfect, and all the hunters, including Mottrot and his family, were frozen deep within the Gorge of Eternal Depth, trapped in a dreamless sleep.

Fire Dreaming[]

Years later, Mottrot was awaken by Sir Fangar after he was revived by CHI thrown away by the Scorpion king Scorm. Later, when Maula tries to awaken Mungus, she forces Mottrot to give Mungus his orb since the latter required three orbs of CHI. Although he objects, Maula states Mungus needs the orb more than him and pulls it out, resulting in Mottrot returning to a dreamless sleep. Mottrot was later given a new orb and awakened again.

The Heart of Cavora[]

Eventually, after Flinx was transformed into the ninth phoenix, he cured Mottrot and Mungus offscreen.[2]

Runt of the Pack[]

Constantly overshadowed by his brother, Mungus, Mottrot is often ignored by the Hunter Tribes- even though is he one of the most intelligent and insightful creatures around. What he lacks in size and power, he makes up for in accelerated intelligence.

Unfair Treatment[]

In the Mammoth Tribe, size and strength are more important than intelligence. But Mottrot doesn't complain- even when his great ideas are unfairly attributed to Mungus. He's too busy seeking attention and affection from his mother.

Oversized[]

Mottrot's double-ended spear has two giant tusks. As Mammoth weapons are often built for someone of Mungus's size, this spear is almost too big for Mottrot to handle.

Physical Description[]

Mottrot is a light-yellow mammoth with white tusks, brown hand, with glowing blue eyes, left arm and right leg. He has visible muscles on his forehead, and visible bones on his chest and left leg. He wears a dark brown cloth and a golden belt.

Trivia[]

  • Unlike Maula and Mungus, Mottrot in the TV Series has a deep voice, why this is the case is unknown.
  • His name is a play on the words 'Mutt' and 'Rot'.
  • Mottrot's voice actor is the same as Lagravis and Longtooth's.
  • He speaks with a Scottish accent.
  • Mottrot getting stuck in tar may be a reference to the La Brea tar pits, a fossil formation in which mammoths stuck in tar are commonplace.
  • As Mottrot is the son of the leader of the mammoth tribe, it can be assumed he is next in line to take over the tribe. This is evidenced when he gave orders to his tribes people and they listened to him.
