Since I'm new here, I figured I'd post my original BIONICLE character I made a while back on BZP. He's had a long evolution, started out as your typical matoran and evolved into what I have him as today.

Noxus is the AntiToa of Darkness. I don't remember much of the background I had for him because that was YEARS ago, but I will probably smash something together and piece together a decent background for him once again. He originates from a BIONICLE universe that my friends and I made up to do a roleplay.

From what I do remember about his backstory, he was a simple Fire based matoran at first with a red body and silver mask/parts. Over the course of our Roleplay, he developed into a Toa of Light (I was sooooo original!) and due to some mysterious events that I can't place my finger on right now somehow became an AntiToa of Darkness during the conflict with the Makuta of that Universe. After that, he became somewhat of a "Guardian of Shadows" and an anti-hero (Ironic as AntiToa would mean the same thing, perhaps?) of sorts.

His coloration, currently, is Black and Silver. He dons the Kanohi Avohkii, which ironically is a mask of light. His weapon, dubbed the "Darkness Edge" has had several forms, the current one resembling a mixture of a glave and an axe. His left arm is mutated into a large clawed arm. His true abilities remain uncertain, however due to his experience he has a strong affiliation with the element of Light and Darkness, moreover, Darkness.

Personality: Somewhat cool and calm, though he can have a fiery temper if you manage to piss him off. He seems to know too much for his own good.

In order to make this MOC, I had to look up inspiration online. Personally I SUCK with BIONICLE and I cannot make anything worth a large pile of kratta without having some sort of imagery or inspiration. I found a body type I enjoyed thanks to this guy Click Here to See on Brickshelf.com. Then I added my own personal touches, which include the mask, arm style, claw, and weapon. I'll have more pictures over time, possible.

For now, this is Noxus.

from what I can see (which is admittedly not much) he looks solid and the design works, if it is a little unimaginative. Hah, imagination wasn't much of a strong suit of mine either up until fairly recently.

It looks eerily familiar somehow. Were you on old MoD?

Edit: *Cough* I guess that old Takal design wasn't very original after all.

No I wasn't. I was a member of the old BZP from YEARS ago. You might have seen me there if you were a part of it.

This build itself seems to be just an additive to the whole Toa Metru body type. But it is rather sturdy, and I like it. That is why I used it.

Yeah, I was happy enough with that design for the two years or so that my self-MOC and his partner used it (NB: partner not in above picture), but true custom is the next step up, and designing custom limbs can be a lot of fun, so long as you have the parts you need. Perhaps you should try making a few custom limbs and see what happens when they come together.

I was on BZP back in '06, never posted and sort-of gave up. I only came back recently.

I was part of BZP when Bionicle first came out. Back in late 2001.

But yeah. I just need to sit down and work on parts. Due to college and stuff, I haven't had the time of day to enjoy anything LEGO related. XD
