“What if there was a multiverse, my dear Helryx? There would be endless unique variants of yourself-- vastly unfamiliar yet familiar versions of you across not one time and space continuum, but many.”
Almost six months in the making, I’ve finally accomplished, along with some good friends, my pseudo-toy photomanipulation masterpiece-- the Helryxverse. What better way to end my “What If?” series of designs than to share that fun with people in this community I love dearly? Links to my “What if?” series of MOCs are at the bottom of the topic.
Happy Bionicle Day, gathered friends!(I’m in Asia, so my timezone says 10th August ok) Today we celebrate the Unity between fans all over the world, fulfilling our Duty to the great spirit of creativity, and claiming our Destiny as the future of Bionicle. Let no fool dim the spark of your heartlights.
Cheers, everyone!

I made some major revisions to my entry from Canon Contest #1, and recycled an old claymore design. In this universe, after losing her good arm mid-battle, Helryx was the one to take down the Marendar singlehandedly. She wears one of its arms as her own, being the battle torn queen that she is.
And that’s the gallery, gathered friends!
Some of these variants are scattered throughout the multiverse, via the social media platforms of their points of origin. Find them all!
Support me on my Instagram and Reddit by checking out, and sharing the posts there? You’ll find me by the same username. I’d appreciate it lots!
I hope you enjoyed the presentation! May the rest of your 810 celebration go swimmingly, and may the Great Spirit be with you all! Cheers!
