Here he is, the Toa of Death himself!
Farathorn is the main character of my upcoming web-literature series, Spherus-Kal.
He originated as a ta-matoran on Metru Nui who left when he realised that Toa Lhikan’s team was being picked off one by one. He wandered for a short while, nearly dying countless times, until he was given a toa stone and became a toa of fire.
He remains a toa of fire, but has been given the title ‘Toa of Death’ because of his violent tendencies and his dangerous weaponry.
Normally, he’s calm and collected, with a sense of humour, but extremely honest.
However, if provoked enough, he has an incredibly violent temper, and often makes morally dubious choices when angry. He has been known to severely maim or even kill enemies who threaten those important to him.
He builds weapons as a hobby, and his most impressive construction is his own rifle.
In general, he prefers to make long-distance, strategic strikes against his enemies, but is quite capable with his pistol and katana as well. His katana is called Justice’s Glory, named for his high regard for retribution against evil.
As you can see, he has opposable fingers, inspired by those used by LittleBrotherhoodStudios in their film Project Toa.
Each palm has a peg in it, used for holding his weapons, like so:
Here’s a closer look at the torso design:
So, let me know what you think, constructive criticism is welcome!
