Bilbur And B8th0ven

Sup. This is Bilbur


Bilbur here is a bit of an oddball.

(Edit: Bilbur is part of my Kaporian storyline. Should have mentioned that :flushed: )
Bilbur is exceptionally short, even for a Roric Kaporian , who are notoriously small. This effectively made him a “midget among midgets”. His peculiar condition also drastically lowered his immune system’s strength. Because of this, at the age of fourteen, he contracted cancer. After almost thirteen months of battling his condition, he decided he had had enough.

In an attempted suicide, he drove a heated dagger into his skull. Miraculously, the dagger was angled just right to separate the tumor from his brain. His body was rushed to the village healer, who used the power of a wyrm to keep him alive long enough to remove the dagger, as well as the separated tumor and a large chunk of his brain. The gapping hole left behind was too large to patch normally, so Bilbur was equipped with a life support-rehabilitating A.I. hybrid to keep him alive and functional. Two days later, Bilbur awoke to a soft, sweet melody. When he asked the healer what the beautiful sound was, he seemed confused, as he had heard no sound. He then realized what was happening. The A.I. had played classical music to comfort Bilbur, as if to tell him everything was ok.

Bilbur would later call the A.I. B8th0ven, after the comforting music it played for him on that day. He became a junker, and soon amassed an enormous collection of parts. Through the years, he used them to add numerous upgrades to his robotic companion, in hopes of keeping it happy. It worked. They formed a symbiotic relationship, which allowed Bilbur to become an avid fighter, and ever so slowly, he began to regain the intelligence, charisma, and humor he possessed as a child.

I wanted to do something different, while still retaining a similar style to my other mocs. After about an hour, I dreamed up the head, and in a few more hours, I had a rough body. After adding some extra details, Bilbur was born.

Sorry for the long read(I really get into some of these backstories :sweat_smile:). Lemme know what you all think!
Peace.
Also, he has no black parts at all. Funny how that turned out…

Tell me about it. I write a lot of dark stuff…:smiling_imp:

This went from dark to ridiculous really quickly.

Looks great! Love the unorthodox build behind it. Must say though, the red pins in the back of the MOC really stand out, and not in a good way.

@AwesomeJoel27 Its a gift. Although, the wyrm part was to link it to my wip story arc

@Yveran Definitely agree with you there, but I didn’t want to put any black parts in him.

Edited for Double Post -Prpl

He sort of looks like a Furby. And I mean that in a good way. Good job!

The red pins and ball joints in the back made it look a bit exposed, but other than that, this is really well done!

I like the personality conveyed through this. Colors work well enough and any thing I would change comes down to personal preference.
