This guy… he is undead, he is very undead. BUT, he was not discovered by the Skull villains.
In his time, he was apart of a toa team that was tasked with testing masks and weapons for future use. Izonor tested a Golden Mask of Ice prototype with only half of the elemental energy when the golden masks were being created.
Izonor died naturally when his time came and was laid to rest.
Izonor was brought back to life when Kulta began using the Mask of Creation. Energy emanating from the mask beckoned Izonor back to the world of the living. Now he patrols the city of the mask makers, looking for anyone who would dare defile it.
And yes, he had a tail when he was alive. And yes again, he does often get mistaken for a Skull Warrior. It gets on his nerves every single time. What and where is his original mask? Lost to Izonor, time, and history.
This MOC is a bit simplistic, but I like how it turned out. As per usual, tell me what you guys think.
I am not a very big fan of this moc. It kinda looks like a slightly changed up skull warrior. he is also rather spindly. also, just a personal problem is the colour scheme, which I feel like is a very big part of every moc.
Well it is apart of Izonor’s story that he often gets mistaken for Skull Warrior. But if you think that is a legitimate issue, then fair enough.
To be fair, he is undead and we do have dedicated skeleton parts.
To be fair, again, orange and blue are complementary. But hey, if I get around to making Izonor when he was alive, he’ll have a more traditional Master of Ice color scheme. The reason why he has the color scheme he has is because he is undead and we do have a precedent this time around for what undead Bionicles are supposed to look like. At the bare minimum, at least Izonor is more consistent than Skull Warrior and Skull Slicer.
I’m sorry to say it, but I’m not fond of it. This could easily pass as a Skull Warrior revamp wearing the corrupted Kopaka mask. The weapon is almost the same, the build of everything else is very minutely changed, and the name is one letter off of Izotor, an ice character that already exists.
