Bionicle MOC:Plague Doctor 2.1

Description

The plague doctor. Also Known as Dottore Matteo Matteo is featured in two separate stories as well as me including him in the bionicle world. Therefor I will break down his bio according to each story.

Impulse~By head writor :iconwolfbossx:, and Co-writer :iconlimeazoid: Matteo Is Immortal in the sense that he does not age and disease does not affect him, making him thousands of years old. he hails from the city of Impulse. While he is as old as the city (if not older) he has lived there much of his life but also traveled to many different parts of the world. Matteo Is very cultured, very wise and rather old fashioned. He's seen rise and fall of the primitive technology that lead to the primitive technology that has created the technology of the modern world(which in the world of impulse is futuristic tech to us). He is part of a secret organization of assassins and keepers of order and secrets known as The faceless where he works along side and watches over Pestilus Matteo Is somewhat of a father figure to Pestilus. he has looked over her since she was born and is largely the reason she's become a member of the order. She affectionately refers to him as "beaky." ^_^ he also speaks with an Italian accent.
Matteo is equipped with his cane, which he uses in his work to treat the poor and fend of petty pick pockets and other ne'erdowells. he uses it for light combat when needed. Then he has his "blood letters." Bloodletting was thought to help treat or cure the plague. These are his main weapons when on missions or in serious danger. His blood letters appear as thick red smoke and then materialize into his blades on his arms. His "Intoxication scent" allows him to subtly disable guards or other people stealthily or severely disorient combatants by emitting a pink smoke from his mask. Plague doctors also kept pleasant smelling things like mint, fresh fruit and flower pedals in their masks as a way from catching the plague themselves. is last ability is his most deadly and powerful "the plague." This is a corrosive thick black smoke that he has complete control over its properties. It can corrupt the mind, flesh or both till there's nothing left. he can make it contagious or isolate it to a single victim. However Matteo cannot use this power endlessly or frequently for it is very draining. Matteo has decent speed and strength but advanced stamina. He's pretty spry for being over atwo-thousand years old.

Witching hour~ Creator/writer/artist :iconrenamon1457:
In Witching Hour Matteo is somewhat more grounded in reality. Matteo still has his blood letters but they are retractable blades. He still has his intoxication scent but it is created by him, its not an ability or power he himself has. He works with the other plague doctors found in the story to fight Plague and the many other nasty monsters that run about creating trouble and leaving death and suffering in their wake.

Bionicle In bionicle Matteo is a Makuta, but does not work specifically for the brotherhood, but not with the dark hunter guild either. He's more of a freelancer. In this setting he's less on the side of good and more on the side of self interest. he retains all his weapons and powers as in Impulse as well. He is also immune to any darkness or shadow powers and attacks. "Foolish boy, you cannot cast into darkness that which is already astray from the light." Matteo has many enemies and few friends. he's much more cynical and dark here. The best way to be safe from Dottore Matteo is to stay out of is way, and never oppose him or his cause.

Huh.
Old Matteo must have been attempting to seek God, cause it looks like his entire body is in atrophy.
Still, humble beginnings are the best beginnings!
