Looking interesting so far. Does this mean you want to do another male Makuta?

Yes, I think Iâll do another moc, I have been making decent progress, should be done in a few days!
Ok, Iâll put you on the list then. Be aware that I added two new rules last week.
Oh, and try making this new MOC more Titan sized than the last one

I got my basic build done, along with the backstory. Is it alright if I claim the idea for a poison expert, though? It fits right in with the concept and appearance of her.

Hey, I guess Iâll use my Makuta contest entry for this, since it wasnât finished by the deadline (salt intensifies).
/s But seriously I thought you were able to submit entries on the 5thâŚ
Anyway, Iâm gonna start working on my Makuta now, since thereâs nothing else to work on.
I might just kill myself out of self hatred first thoughâŚ

Just added some more suggestions for backstories to post 702.
Donât know if you read this in time, but I just read through Reppiraxâs backstory again to get a feeling for the charakter before drawing him and stumbled over the name âBloodeyesâ. Well, I think this organization thing will come in handy for Reppiraxâs âBook of the Brotherhoodâ entry, however the name âBloodeyesâ should be changed. especially the âBloodâ, since Bionicle characters donât have blood⌠I think? So this would make the name kinda strange.
If you donât come up with a better name, Iâll think of something fitting and incorpoate an âeyeâ somewhere. It will probably be something fitting for a sect of fanatics like⌠âThe True Purgeâ or something such with an eye of sorts as their insignia (I would want to add that to Reppiraxâs drawing)

What would you want the name to be? Iâ kind of blanking on good names for them right now. Interestingly, youâre right, they donât have blood. I never really thought about it before, but itâs kind of weird how much I was able to find on the topic.
Well, letâs seeâŚ
I currently have this idea I would like to pursue in Reppiraxâs âBook of the Brotherhoodâ entry (which varies a little bit from what you wrote, but I feel like my version would explain better why he actually attacked the Brotherhood - feel free to give your opinion on this):
So, Reppirax had been tasked with creating something that would make the Brotherhood able to easily control the Rahi populace of the Matoran Universe - he created some very few but very powerful Rahi for this. These were never used by the Brotherhood, however, which made Reppirax quite angry. Over time he came to believe that to keep the Matoran Universe working properly, it needed to be frequently âcleansedâ from every kind of influence that hadnât been there since the very beginning - Dark Hunters, Rahi, basically everything that wasnât either created by the Great Beings or Mata Nui directly. In short: he became some sort of âreligiousâ fanatic.
Over time he assembled a group of beings that also believed in his ideas, named the ââŚâ (Iâll just make up a name somewhen if thatâs fine with you). Reppirax also tried repeatedly to convince Miserix and Teridax, but failed there.
Eventually he simply decided to take matters into his own hands and to start his crusade against everything not created by âgodsâ. Miserix of course wouldnât tolerate it and the Brotherhoodâs forces soon stopped Reppirax and his âarmyâ before they could reach any important regions. They werenât able to defeat Reppirax, though. Knowing that he could only win when the Brotherhood was on his side, Reppirax decided to take his elite troops (mostly of the ââŚâ) and march on Destral. There however he was killed when he and his forces were crushed between Destralâs walls and Ornekâs army that came to save the Brotherhoodâs seat of power. At the same time, Cenred and Xirok managed to defeat the troops Reppirax had left behind.
Yea, thatâs the rough idea. It will take quite some time before I get to write this properly, though.
Also the mask Reppirax wears⌠The âtheâ in the name bugs me a little âMask of the Voidsâ. The power too seems a little too powerful in my opinion, I mean ⌠Black Holes? I would like to change the power to this: He can create a portal to the Field of Shadows. Itâs more or less the same power but also not - but it would fit better in my opinion.
Iâm not sure if the name âMask of Voidsâ still fits then, thoughâŚ
EDIT: I think I have a name for Reppiraxâs group of fanatics - at least I think it sounds fanatical enough while capturing somewhat what they attempted:
âThe Great Beingsâ True Servantsâ probably reffered to as simply the âServantsâ in short.

Backstory seems pretty good, although I donât think âreligious fanaticâ is a correct way to put it, seeing as heâs making up a violent set of beliefs that he makes himself the leader of and brainwashes others into believing. I think cult leader would be a more appropriate term. Also, that name for them is pretty good, but a bit drawn out. How about calling them âthe Cleansersâ.
Edit: also, his mask doesnât create actual black holes, itâs more of a portal to an empty dimension that sucks people in with a powerful Vaccum. You know what the kamui is? If you do, itâs pretty much like that.

What? I was saying that what Reppirax wasnât making a religion, he was making a cult.

In the end itâs more or less the same. Of course I would never actually use the word âreligionâ. The important thing is in the end that Reppirax has to make his followers believe in something - otherwise they wouldnât follow him.
Well, I just personally think it likely that such a fanatical group would give themselves some big grandiose name - but actually no one calls them by their full name. âThe Cleansersâ somehow reminds me of a bunch of janitors 
, but ok, Iâll use it. I still think this should be the name only others call them, though.
Which still seems to be like instant-death. I personally think replacing the âempty dimensionâ with the Field of Shadows does work better - because Reppirax wants his victims to suffer, trapped in a place where there is no light - and where somewhere the Zivon lurks.

I guess the field of shadows and the empty dimension are pretty much the same thing anyway. Although this portal that I was talking about doesnât kill people like you thought. It simply transports them. Unless of course it where used to rip someone in half of something, I guess that could kill, but thatâs usually not what itâs used for.

Sorry for my inactivity on this project, school is getting very intense right now, however I reckon my Makuta may start coming together in two weeks or so.

Firstly, Iâd like to say that Kohuruâs pictures will be up soon. Iâm serious this time. But also, in the meantime, Iâve designed 2 or 3 other makuta. However one of them does bare a Kraahkaan. This is, however in his mutant form, in which his mask has fused with his face, and itâs used as more of an upper jaw than a mask (his unmutated form has Stringerâs HF1.0 helmet). I may not post one of the others either, because heâs in an insectoid form, and I donât think Iâll be able to make an original form of him.
Great to hear!
For the MOC itself it doesnât matter at all what mask it wears - the important thing is that it is a mask that isnât on the âforbidden listâ backstory-wise.
