Polemos (scrapped) - Ally - Bionicle MOC

(Updated version here - crimson-eyed-sermon.deviantart… )


A legendary being some say was shaped by war, Polemos embodies everything it means. Polemos is a figure much like the former warlord and Order of Mata Nui agent Axonn, as he too would roam the world in search for lands to conquer. When the worlds were seperated, Polemos resided on an ancient Bara Magna but felt that the world was not worthy of his conquest, so he rested and waited for the when the time would be right.
Millennium and millennium had passed, and he was finally awoken by the battle between Teridax and Mata Nui. As the battle began to subside and Mata Nui healed the world, Polemos became somewhat disappointed with a world that was now free from conflict. Unsure of what to do next, Polemos went exploring until he met a fellow warrior who went by the name of Takanuva. Takanuva showed him powers he never thought he could dream of, and became entranced. Takanuva felt like letting Polemos go along his way unguided would cause untold destruction, so he asked if he was willing to join his cause for peace, and in return give him the power to wage endless wars on his own. Polemos agreed, and joined the Hand of Mata Nui, after finding an old foe named Vezon and seperating his head from his body and claiming the only known remaining Kanohi Olmak for his own. Takanuva created a pocket universe for Polemos where he could create any foe he could imagine and fight them, even entire armies if he wished.
Secretly however, Takanuva needed someone to protect the mask from falling into the wrong hands again and needed a way to stop Polemos from trying to conquer this world. By giving the Olmak to Polemos, had taken two Gukko birds with one stone.
However, after a while his fun was spoiled when the Hand needed his help in Karda Nui. He now journeys with Hydraxon to find the answers about the slaughter of the Matoran villagers there.

Polemos is equipped for waging warfare and armed for destruction. He wields a humongous two-handed blade called the Havoc-reaver which fuels his innate powers, the Quake Gauntlet which can topple enemies as easily as it topples buildings and wears the Orama, an ancient Kanohi of true sight that allows him to see through illusions, invisible enemies and allows him to see whether or not he is being deceived. He has powers which allow him to turn his body into stone, surround himself with fire and cause debilitating weaknesses to all enemies around him. He also carries with him a proto-revolver, a gun that's bigger than most Matoran and is made to put holes in almost everything.


(Polemos is based off of War from Darksiders, and if you want to see the weapons, just browse through the gallery. I've got MOC's who are inspired by other characters, but I need them for part of my bonkle universe.)
