My first MoCs to be posted on this website since July.
TOA OF WHIMSY PLESENTS ROCK AND ROLL! CRICK ON THE THUMBNAILS FOR BIGGER PICTURE!! LOOK OUT FOR TL;DR STORYLINE
INTRODUCTION:
In the south of the universe, just to the east of the palace of the rainbow gods and to the north of the Southern Continent from the spot on the coast where Teridax had a REALLY nasty stomach-ache when he was still biomechanical and new to using his Makuta powers is an enigmatic and mysterious island split exactly in two by the "Helryx" line- the line said to have been made when Helryx in a rage tossed Artahka across the universe after he made one too many jokes about his staff (Helryx has since denied doing this, and Artahka simply jumps and hobbles out of the room like a frightened salamander whenever asked).
This island is flooded, meaning the surface is covered in either swamp or lake, and there are immense trees covering the island. from a great distance the island resembles a green hairy "mini-Muaka" pet that fell asleep on a blue rug.
The island is also home to a series of well-preserved abandoned matoran habitations made of stone which cannot be seen from the outside of the island on account of the massive trees. Folklore has it that the island was once home to Plant Life Matoran and the first Toa of Plant Life, who is said to be responsible for the trees. They left the island in a mysterious migration and the island then became inhabited by numerous Rahi species and an OoMN agent tasked with keeping the island's potential as a "Matoran heritage site" a secret so that the OoMN can use it as a site of one of their Research Facilities and avoid the "Secret Research Facility Tax".
Also on this island is an intelligent species called "Menduk" that can be described in our words as a cross between a frog, a gorilla, and a God-knows-what.
ROCK:
Rock is a slightly dim-witted but friendly Tree Menduk. Tree Menduk live high up in the trees in tree-houses or in the top floors of hollowed-out tree trunks turned cheap apartment buildings, and are to the high branches and the leaves what penguins are to water or pandas are to bamboo forests. They are high jumpers and insanely fast climbers, very agile in the air, but clumsy when walking on flat ground- like their legs are too springy for walking. They have bioluminiscent patches on their heads and backs for navigation during the night time or simply for rave parties when sufficient lightning bugs cannot be found. They eat insects, small birds, fruit and sometimes branches. They have for the latter hard sharp teeth, and when they miss the vine and plunge into the swamps they have excellent swimming skills. Rock lives in the 40th floor of an apartment building under the ownership of a strange insomniac anarcho-capitalistic winged lizardine creature named "Ramses" who spits fire and bile in equal amounts- and may or may not be the agent mentioned earlier.
Rock like all other Menduk enjoys rave parties and plays a sport involving a coconut or large rock, frantic hopping about and cursing at each other. Rock is a musician and writes poems and songs and can play a variety of instuments, his favorite being a "Triple Helryx" guitar that was one of many instruments one of Ramses' friends sold on the island in a small shop that ran for about 500 years before the person moved to Metru-Nui to start a line of instrument shops. His best friend is a Swamp Menduk named Roll.
ROLL:
Roll is a clever and devious Swamp Menduk (but he never shows it, all his actions appear to be governed by sheer whimsicality rather than intellect or logic) and Rock's best friend. Swamp Menduk live in very obviously, the swamps that cover the surface of the island, or in the roots of trees and in cool dark caves and in the lower floors of the apartment buildings- the middle of these buildings is sometimes turned into a tunnel for the extensive series of elevated roads that the Menduk use for transporting themselves through the island. Swamp Menduk are less agile in the air than Tree Menduk and are faster swimmers than Tree Menduk, they enjoy moist and damp places as much as Tree Menduk enjoy high ones. They also have luminiscent patches on their bodies and are virtually fireproof. They also enjoy rave parties and eat a diet of fish, bugs, and when neither is available they can always eat the micro-organisms in the waters of the island. Roll knows how to repair and drive the mechanical vehicles that are used by the Menduk, as well as general expertise in building/repairing electronic and mechanical devices and is thusly employed as a mechanic. He lives near the largest of the Matoran ruins (now it is a public park by day and a rave club at night) in a cave with several other Swamp Menduk and a strange Skakdi who was apparently the subject of several mysterious OoMN lab experiments and his pet Gafna named "Gible"
Whenever Rock and Roll are not working and are in proximity to each other, there is always hilarity at the expense of their friends and other sitcom-esque situations- sometimes involving Ramses' "problem" with mushrooms or something Roll built in his garage that backfires and creates much humour with the havoc it wreaks, or Rock's obsession with turnips, and sometimes OoMN agents and celebrities drop in for visits. Catch "FRIGGIN ROCK N' ROLL" every day at 7:00 PM Metru-Nui time on DUMETV! their latest season had the highest ratings of any comedy show ever to hit the Protodermis tubes! TV Analysts say this may be because of the guest appearance by Turaga Vakama as "Old Man Bonfire" and a brief appearance made by Toa Helryx as "Boss-lady", and the fact that Roll's pet Gafna "Gible" is still SO CUTE.
And now that that silliness is done with... I prefer Rock over Roll because of obvious reasons- he's the more "customised" MoC. I just made Roll because I wanted to get an AvToran head on a Toa Inika body and because I had all those blue pieces and because I wanted a WACKY COMIC DUO.
And now for some gratuitious nudity!
I don't think I did Rock's legs the very best I could though.
And...
I'll explain this one later in a full topic, so look out for it.
And for all you guys who know how2meme:
