Spine Moc 3/3: Skorrin
The frontier of Bara-Magna is a harsh and unpredictable place, filled with all manner of unsavory creatures that could easily turn a Mahi herd and their shepherd into a three course meal. With Toa and Glatorian being relegated to duties akin to that of a militia around New Atero and other regions, the Agori and Matoran elected to find other hands to serve as protection for settlers in the wastes.
Skorrin was once a hard, ruthless war chief of a band of Skakdi, but the land he fought for is long since gone, and his warriors disbanded, many content in this peaceful new world to continue warring. Skorrin, for his part, tried to put his warrior’s energy elsewhere. And that is how he was given a job helping shepherds in the frontier.
There, in the many years he grew a special bond with one of the Po-Matoran shepherds, and found a new sense of serenity and solitude in the canyons and mountains of Bara-Magna.
And that’s three mocs! Thank you everyone who’s been participating in the moc bash, I hope you’re having as good a time as I am making these mocs! A bit about Skorrin himself, he was a character I made years ago (some of your may remember the Bat’leth Skakdi image from the Challenge post) and it felt prudent to bring him back. The horns were a fun addition, and he honestly seemed like the sort of character to have little bone claws sprouting all over his body. His friendship with my self-moc was a new idea though, but I like the idea of Post-2010 skakdi kind of falling into less bloodthirsty roles amongst the Matoran.
