#aiakos

I have no idea what this is either

I'm thinking of drawing the other two in these outfits as well

Open Starter : Aiakos/Aeacus

Aeacus.. or Aiakos. Whatever name you called him. Had an interesting job.

No, it wasn’t controlling the winds, sending messages, singing about how much you love your dead wife and evading taxes with your best friends and running from the police, none of that.

He had to judge the souls of the underworld.

Shocker.

Normally, he’d hear people wonder why he hated his job so much. Well.. he didn’t hate it. It was just a whole whirlwind of a soul trying to explain how their dog convinced them to kill their family.

He glanced to Rhadamanthus and Minos, who were not necessarily happy either. Why would they be?

You were next in line, either a soul or just a lost wanderer or someone who’s supposed to be there. He brushed his brown curls out of his face and called out.

He straightened his green robe, “Next!” He held up his hand.

You walked up, looking at the three, he narrowed his eyes.. they glowed green as he looked you up and down.

He then scrambled for your scroll.

You felt a weird feeling in your gut.

You want power. Control. To be truly seen as a Toa. I can taste your desire, O seeker mine."

"I can gladly provide, you only need Wish it." Makuta Aiakos, The Witch

Kanohi: Great Mask of Scavenging

Aiakos is a name that many have heard, but few truly understand.  An ancient Wish-Dragon, she is known to go to places of hardship and strife to feed on the occupants' desperation.  While not entirely malicious, she is known to use her power to twist the words of her prey into less... beneficial outcomes and their energies absorbed if they are not careful. Surviving the Great Hunt and escaping to this world, she has spent the time since acting as beneficiary to some, and much worse to others.

While she did not choose to side with Teridax when he and the rest of the Makuta turned on Miserix, she has not acted against him.  Not directly, that is. Empowered a Toa or six, sure, but she sees little benefit in doing much more than observing for now.
