Once a respected Toa of fire, Atrox fell into hard times when he fell ill with an unknown disease. Gradually as his condition grew worse, he sank into dementia. Late one night, he lost all control of his body and murdered one of his fellow team-mates. When the others discovered his hand in the murder, they banished him to the caves, where he would live for the rest of his life. In the caves, he found many thing, but most notable was a lone shadowy crystal. He broke off a chunk of crystal, and carried it around with him as he explored the vast cave system, hoping for a way out of this torment. Unbeknownst to him, the crystal slowly worsened his dementia, and soon began altering him physically. He started to transform into the monster in his head, the one that killed one of his fellow toa, and betrayed the code. Some still say that he lurks in the caves, whispering to the crystal of shadow in mad, hushed tones, slipping further and further into insanity.
Minifig represents average human height in this case as suggested by @MaximusPrime
My inspiration for this was, fairly clearly, to build a disproportionate and lanky character, using a Krana as a mask. This has always been on my to-do list, so I’m glad i finally did it. He is also my tallest moc yet, (although that’s not saying much) and he stands a good a good bit taller than Inannus, so I am pleased with that.
Please leave Comments and/or criticism
Thank you!
P.S. His name, as well as my other Moc, are from Latin words of their characteristics in case anyone cared.
It’s weird and different, and carries the aesthetic well. Not a big fan of how the elbows look when his arms are bent, but that’s only a minor nitpick IMO.
I would use the excuse of “It’s supposed to look strange,” but i honestly kind of have that complaint myself, although i’m just going to leave it.
