CrashDummy Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Gamut Good day, this mod of the protector of jungle is the last of the six, after which I will look into upgrading yeti and leviathan (ice and water). I present Centaur. He was the second to fall by the hand of Viper (protector of earth) on the fields of battle, where the protectors confronted Viper after Golem's death (protector of stone). His story is linked to the other protector mods. You can check out their links in my Sig. Protector of Jungle - The Centaur's Background story Centaur was the long range specialist of the six. He scoffed at the other protectors for their reliance on swords and claws. "The world is so wide, how can your blade reach it?" - Centaur to Viper He had a long seated rivalry with Leviathan (protector of water), which culminated in Leviathan's using a le-matoran as fishbait to capture the legendary Kon'gra, a sea monster that terrorized Okoto for a time. Since that day, he began taking pot shots at Leviathan's tail whenever the six met. Centaur: "that's seven tails for me" Leviathan: ".....and one terrorized le-matoran in return....one more tail and he will drown." The protectors of Jungle once held a practice that is now frowned upon by all matorans alike. They used to fuse themselves with the life essence of their enemies, a practice that ceased with Centaur's passing. For generations past, all protectors of Jungle were expected to do this, and Centaur was no exception. However, he had heard tales of the Gha'Taj (those who went too far with fusing, becoming monsters themselves). Indeed, he had even seen one. His own father, before passing him the mantle of "protector," was a Gha'Taj. By his own hand, did Centaur have to put his father down, and by doing this, take the title of protector. There was no ceremony for his succession. It was a time of tribe mourning. From that day, Centaur resolved himself to never become Gha'Taj. "I saw despair in my father's eyes as the monsters he had taken within himself burst forth. There was no matoran left, only a fell monster that I must kill. Why must we do such things." To fool his tribe, Centaur wore armor that gave him the appearance of a fused one. This armor was so cleverly created that it gave Centaur additional powers similar to those of a fused one, such as short-distance flight. This secret he kept from all except the six. Only upon his death did his tribe discover the deception. They realized that Centaur's power was his own, not stolen from his enemies. "by my hand I took my father's life, and with it I will cease the legacy of blood-drinkers. Mark my words." - Centaur to Bulwark Build Centaur had the largest launcher of the six. It was so powerful that it needed to be fed energy from Centaur's backpack. It had two forms, one for rapid-fire and the other for long-range precision. On his back were mechanical wings that could carry him for five minutes at most (a fact that he kept secret from his tribe, as a true fused-one could soar for far longer). Although he was poor in close range, he was not helpless. When enemies came close, he detached the bladed edge of his bow for use as a rapier. 1. Action Pose 2. Front View, neutral position 3.

You're still missing the Stone and Jungle Protectors.

CrashDummy Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 Hey do those Acid shield still work or are they just aesthetic choice? PS don't forget to update your Signature. You're still missing the Stone and Jungle Protectors. Purely aesthetic. I didn't even know that they were called acid shields or that they had acid powers until you told me, and I googled them.
