Mutran (OU)

Mutran was an unstable but brilliant experimental scientist in the Brotherhood of Makuta.

Life & Career
Mutran was a member of the Brotherhood of Makuta since at least the reign of Teridax. This means that Mutran probably supported Blackout when he contested Teridax's position as the Grand Master of the Brotherhood of Makuta, because he continued to be a member of the Brotherhood of Makuta under Blackout's rule.

Mutran later constructed a hive in Karda Nui from which he conducted experiments on the local Matoran, including Mocax. Mutran's experiments on Mocax resulted in the appearance of an extra pair of arms that sprouted from Mocax's back, but Mutran forgot to drain Mocax's inner light in the process, which meant that the Matoran did not become subservient to the Brotherhood's ideals like many of the others that the Brotherhood had corrupted.

One day, a higher-ranking Makuta scientist named Kakamu appeared in Mutran's hive to carry out a surprise inspection. Because Mutran was distracted with dealing with Kakamu, Mocax seized the opportunity to escape and fled into the Swamp of Secrets. When the Makuta realized that Mocax had escaped, Kakamu went looking for him on Mutran's behalf, eventually finding the Matoran. Mocax's pleas not to be returned to Mutran caused Kakamu to reconsider, so he offered Mocax an alternative instead: to become his personal assistant on Nynrah. Mocax accepted Kakamu's offer, so Kakamu returned to Mutran's hive to inform Mutran of their new arrangement. Mutran did not object to Kakamu's adoption of Mocax because he considered Mocax a failed experiment, admitting that he was planning on eventually feeding him to one of his other experiments anyway.

A Future Memory
In 253,074 CMT, Malygos and Anzu entered Ynot's mind in an attempt to free him of the corrupting influence of Ynohtna. Inside Ynot's mind, the two found themselves faced with five marked doors, each leading to a different part of Ynot's psyche. Malygos narrowed their choices down to the door marked with a pentagon and the door marked with a question mark, because he knew that Ynot's Hollow self. After Malygos entered the door with the question mark while Anzu entered the door with the pentagon, Malygos found himself in what appeared to be a memory of Ynot's distant past in which Ynot was tinkering with the design of a small Rahi on Destral. Ynot was then approached by Teridax, who asked Ynot if he had seen Krika. Ynot replied that Krika was in the training hall with Mutran and Chirox, so Teridax left to find them. The vision then ended and Malygos appeared back in the hall of doors, though the question door had disappeared.

Trivia

 * If User:Kon's memories are correct, Mutran was introduced into BZPB lore through backstory created for Mocax instead of being an actual character in the BZPB RPG. However, Mutran was later mentioned in BZPB: Future in an area of Ynot's psyche.
