[SPC] CAT A - The Black Hole 6

The Black Hole 6

The Black Hole 6, a ragtag team of the galaxy's most ruthless criminals, travel across the vast expanses of space, leaving nothing but devastation in their wake. They get their name from their founder, Captain Henry Ward, who was found drifting out of a black hole in the Triangulum Galaxy. His original crew rebelled against him, took his left arm, and left him to die in the cold unknown. He later assembled a group of pirates who would sail across space with him so he could get revenge on his former crewmates. The Black Hole 6 became known throughout the stars for their savagery and greed.

Captain Henry Ward - Henry Ward has always been a somewhat crazed man, but many believe the weeks he spent adrift in space caused him to transcend into a whole new realm of bizarre. Some government officers refer to him as the "Wicked Wackjob," but they know better than to call him that while in his presence. Ward always wears black, most likely due to his obsession with darkness of outer space. Despite his unstable mental state, he is said to be quite cunning at times. He is missing his left eye as well as his left arm. He is also quite fond of his Laser Axe, as he is rarely seen without it.

First Mate Daniel Montbars II, "The Exterminator" - Daniel Montbars II is the long lost descendant of Daniel Montbars, a 17th century pirate known for his violence. Montbars II inherited this brutality, as well as his predecessor's title: "The Exterminator." Montbars II is a ruthless killer who only joined the Black Hole 6 for a chance to satisfy his bloodthirsty nature. He wears lead-spiked pants to go with his spiked shirt. He is a man of few words; he tends to let his legendary Chainsaw Sword do the talking. Some would argue that his name is more feared than that of his Captain.

Ian Fiore, "The Sightseer" - Ian Fiore is the crew's sharpshooter and weapons specialist. Fiore has undergone many body modifications to make himself a more formidable foe. He had both of his hands fitted with laser gatlings and his back features dual plasma cannons. His legs have been lined with steel mechanisms so that he can run, jump, and fly at supersonic speeds. His skin is resistant to the atmosphere of space, but he still has to wear a helmet to breathe oxygen. He also has four bionic eyes, which gave him his nickname: "The Sightseer."

Archie Pelago, the Cook - Archie Pelago is the cook for the Black Hole 6, and he is a pretty mediocre one at that. He is a very dimwitted man, having managed to blow off both his legs in a freak cooking accident. Many doubt he even knows that he is working for a bunch of pirates, as he's really only in it for the money. "They pay well," he said on one occasion. However, he has proved his worth in battle many times, due to his Heavy Photon Pistol. He is still undoubtably the oddball among a crew of oddballs, that's for certain.

Nathaniel "Atlus" Decker, the Shipwright - Nathaniel Decker, more commonly known as "Atlus" due to his immense strength, is the shipwright for the Black Hole 6. Contrary to popular belief, he is not actually a cyborg. He wears his Treasure Suit Mk. IV almost 24/7, as he has grown accustomed to having it on for long periods of time while treasure hunting. Besides repairing their spaceship, Captain Ward also put him in charge of collecting riches that the gang may come across. Atlus uses his left arm's Pulsating Drill to dig through anything in his path, then uses his right arm's claw to grab any treasure chests he may find.

Navigator Abraham Beatty, "The Pyro Pirate" - Abraham Beatty is the navigation specialist for the Black Hole 6. Besides being the crew's navigator, he works closely with Ian Fiore to design new inventions and weapons for them to use. He has a strange fixation with fire, which is why he's often called the Pyro Pirate. His weapon of choice of course is his beloved Flame-Spitter, which unleashes a huge ball of fire at an enemy. He also carries his trusty Water Shield for protection, as he knows how carried away he can get when it comes to fire. He is a very energetic and lively member of the crew, often spouting jokes and singing songs around a fire (which he created).

Those are some clever connections there, especially on Archie Pelago and Ian Fiore - I've never seen those connections before, but they look great here.

Great design may I ask how you mounted the head to the body I am have been trying to do something like that form awhile.

I don't recognise those yellow parts as the arms, what are they? The cook is my favourite, his gun is pretty cool.

@Artanis: Sorry for the late reply, but anyway, the yellow parts are from some of the old Bionicle sets that came with Rhotuka spinners. They are the pins that held the spinners in place. They fit pretty nicely in minifig arms!
