After keeping Makara put together for a year or two, I realized that the custom torso I built for him had a significant flaw: the waist, which was held together by only a single axle connection, would fall apart if it was touched. I have fixed that issue, as well as certain other design issues, in this, the 2.0 Edition!
After taking part in a job known only as “the Corridor incident”, Makara became a bounty hunter in his own right, no longer needing help from the Dark Hunters or Xian military. As a symbol of this progress, he abandoned his traditional Vortixx armor, replacing it with a Desertech Anti-projectile breastplate, and similar armor for his legs. This armor features a unique aspect of current Xian research, a system for climate control that keeps the wearer comfortable in the hottest deserts or the coldest mountains. As he begins a new journey, he has set up his base in a small village known as Thania, in the Jungle region of Bara Magna. From here, he is secure against most known enemies, and has also begun organizing a militia unit to counter the fact that Thania has no Glatorian.
