Vozun - Green territories mechanical genius/repairman & longest held soldier

Species and slight character backstory:

Vozun Is, quite obviously, a member of the Skakdi’s species, but he is part of a long forgotten offshoot once known as the ‘spineless’ before they ‘vanished’ and were forgotten by the Skakdi’s of old.
But they didn’t die off, no, they were just chosen for a seperate, side experiment, of Spirah’s.
When he originally started his experiments on the Skakdi’s he noticed differences between both versions of the species, while the ‘normal’ Skakdi where stronger, tougher and more receptive to elemental control they were quicker to anger and less likely to properly work together, whereas ‘spineless’ Skakdi while also similarly as quick to anger where much more resistant to his modifications, such as the blood curse (or whatever the 'ell it is they have) and they had a higher average intelligence and were more likely to work together.

So he separated the two differing ‘species’, any remaining ‘spineless’ quickly killed due to prejudice and just plain ol’ dislike after Spirah left.
He brought them to a seperate, more hidden (and quite barren) island, land itself essentially a massive crater surrounded by the ‘walls’ of the island, converting 8 seprate corners into ‘survivable’ terrain, creating just enough renewable resources to support a medium sized group of Skakdi, multiple corners would be needed to support larger groups, leaving the middle still in quite a barren state.

Now while that may seem to strange to another he had a perfectly reasonable reason for it, he was going to see how well these ‘spineless’ Skakdi could work in groups, mentally modifying the ‘spineless’ Skakdim once he was done on the island, to believe they had always been there and been at war with the 8 other groups over supplies.
What he wasn’t expecting was how quickly the groups adapted to teamwork or when they nigh-instantly seperated themselves into colours after their first ‘official’ battle, going as far as trading armour pieces with enemy teams just so they could suppose of the ‘dirty colour’s’ despite meaning they’d have to be on mildly friendly terms for a bit. The teams created where known by the name of their colour.
The Reds, The Blues, The Greens, The Blacks, The Browns, The Whites, The Oranges, and The Purples. (Also, don’t you dare take any o’ these outa context you tumblrs!)

Before and after he chose to leave the Skakdi (choosing to ignore the need of Visorak for the ‘spineless’ due to their islands walls), he set up a supply drop like system in the middle of the canyon, randomly dropping of supplies, from weapons to food, mechanical parts and more, along with setting up a system that the Skakdi came to calling ‘command’ that allowed for them to attempt to request certain supplies be dropped, none of the teams ever realizing that they were all being using the same ‘command’.
All of this would be dropped off into the middle, where there once was a 9th team known as the Yellows, a team Spirah created in response to their colour changes and to add a challenge to their test, making the team bigger than the others and better supplied.
At least that’s what he expected to happen, so it was a surprise for him when he later returned and discovered that the 8 other teams, realizing the yellows despite their size had highly limited supplies and where ripe for the capture immediately waged an all out war against them and each other, quickly decimating the team and subsumming the Skakdi they captured into their own teams, Spirah’s own mental conditioning causing their mentality’s to be easier to change.
Really all that was required would be a couple days of being held captive and having their armour colour switched to cause them to become semi-loyal soldiers for what was once an enemy team, sure most’d still happily switch back to their own team if they were captured but due to their own pride and strange sense of honour they all retained made it so they’d never let themselves be captured purposely or not fight to the best of their ability.

This also lead to the surprising discovery of how low their death counts were both compared to their spined cousins and how long they’d been fighting, mainly all because of a strange belief of theirs with their helmets.
Essentially they see their helmets as the most honoured pieces of armour, being their biggest lifeline, taking one off unless seeing was even seen as the biggest offense against their own colour possible, as if they’d spit in their colour’s face (if their colour’s had faces that is) and that to have their helmet knocked off was to signify their defeat if it touched the ground, immediately surrendering no matter how loyal (if anything that just increased it).

But all this was nothing compared to Spirah’s biggest surprise when he attempted to take them to work for the Makuta, after seeing that his experiments with their spined cousins had failed and seeing how they had succeeded with them, was immediately repelled by the combined and banded together forces of each team, each at first accusing him of being a spy for one of the other ‘dirty colours’ and attacking him before realizing he was an enemy to all of them after he attempted to intimidate them with a show of power at the yellows old base. It especially didn’t help him when they started to send out the elemental weapons, especially the tanks.

After he was repelled he destroyed as many records of the island and experiment as possible out of anger, as for what he did next, well as they say, that’s history!

Vozun

Bio:
Vozun is one of the older (and definetly one of the more demented too) Skakdi on the island, along with also being one of the few too have never changed colours.
He is steadfastly loyal to his colour, going farther than even some of the more fanatic Skakdi, charging enemy bases alone but for his weapons to rescue captured Greens and making it out, never taking off his helmet, even when sleeping, heck he’s even built modifications into his helmet and head to make it virtually impossible to knock it off! It’s as he says “I’ve been green since day one and I’m not changing now!”

Along with all this he’s also one of the most wanted Skakdi on the island by all teams due to his sheer technological know-how! From grafting prosthetics and/or extra limbs, increasing tanks elemental recharge and blast radius to being able to repair or at least build weapons from any trashed vehicles/weapons or just scrap parts!

======

Poses and such:

“You want ta fight eh?! EH?! Well then, come at me you whippersnapper! I’ll beat your @$$ to Karzahnni and back! I’M VOZUN! A GREENER GREEN THAN ANY O’ 'YE OVERCONFIDENT, BUMBLING FOOLS!”

“YEAH YOU BETTER RUN 'YE YELLOW BELLIED COWARDS!”

"Hehe, you like 'em? I call em Mr. Bashy and Mr. Stabby, you wanna know why? BECUASE THATS WHAT THEY’RE GONNA DO TO YOU ONCE I GET MEH HANDS AROUND YOUR QUIVERING GUZZARD YA DIRTY [Insert one of 7 other team colours]

=======

He’s old, he’s grumpy, he’s loyal and he’s dangerous as all Karzahnni! You want to steal something from his shop? Better be prepared for automatic turret fire! Trying to beat him down in revenge or to make him work for you? Better be prepared for a sonic vibro wrench and matching screwdriver to the head!
He’s armed and dangerous and proud to show it!

======

Ahahahaha! This is what happens when I’m reading like 50 RVB fics in a row then start fiddling around with that green mask-eye-thing wondering what to do with it and then realizing it fits really well on a Skakdi head! XD

7 line of dialog is defiantly a short text. :notepad_spiral:


The weapons and cap looks fine, but the proportion seems rather underwhelming from the Inika build itself.

Thanks and yeah, Moc itself isn’t the best but do remember this was just supposed to be a joke moc itself at first before evolving into this. =P

As for it’s body I don’t think it’s too bad, slightly closer together shoulders, close to the same height as the usual Skakdi and really it just worked with my excuse of an offshoot ‘subspecies’ of Skakdi that don’t have spines.
