Arikos, She-Wolf of Xia

A Vortixx who fashions her life to perfectly fit the Xian belief of "wealth makes right", Arikos stands as an impenetrable gate between the upper and lower wards of the city-island. A loan buyer and mob boss, she makes it her mission to collect every Chit she is owed…plus interest, naturally, and is not beyond travelling across the Matoran Universe to collect. Though presenting herself as calm, charming and polite, below the veil is a woman that is relentless, vicious and assigns a "Chit Value" to everyone she meets. Though armed with her trusty glaive and twin poisoned daggers, her true weapon is the trickery of her mind and the golden Great Mahiki she employs. Though disdained by many for "stooping" to using a Kanohi, she takes great satisfaction is outdoing "superior Xian technology" with it.

My entry for @malwarewolf-mocs dark hunters challenge. This is a redux of a moc I've had since 2005. And to give a new more fitting edgy dark hunters name, may I present to you Marrow Tracker. I hope y'all enjoy

Like any good Xian, Sorakhii has a taste for profit and no scruples to get in the way of obtaining it. She is the boss of Kirox Aulu ("Red Claw"), a shadowy syndicate focused on the poaching and trafficking of exotic Rahi. Although she herself doesn't much care for Rahi, she understands that there are collectors and enthusiasts who would pay handsomely for Muaka fangs or Kane-Ra horns.

Being both a Vortixx and the leader of a lucrative criminal enterprise, it should come as no surprise that Sorakhii is a harsh boss to work for. She does not tolerate failure, and would prefer her underlings to die rather than fail. While she may prefer to let others do her dirty work, she is not afraid to venture out into the field to show her worthless henchmen how to do their jobs.

The island of Xia hosts many things: the industrious Vortixx, gigantic weapons factories and the worst pollution the universe has ever seen to name but a few. But they all exist within the ever present shadow of that ravenous peak known simply as the mountain.

This mass of living rock is very big and VERY hungry. But just how many Vortixx has does it need to consume to sate its enormous appetite? In this edition of the Knowledge Tower, we find out.
