Starok

Starok is a rogue Makuta and the leader of the Reformed Second Brotherhood of Makuta.

Biography
Starok was one of the original Makuta to be created by the Great Beings. He was a good friend of Ferox, and was particularly enthusiastic about creating new species to populate the Matoran Universe with. During the Vrai invasion of the MU, Starok disliked the Brotherhood's new responsibility to fend them off, as he believed that the Great Beings should create a new race of warriors to combat them instead as the Makuta were mostly scientists at the time. As if in response to this, the Elite Makuta were created, and after they dealt with the Vrai threat their leader, Blackout, joined the Brotherhood. Concurrently, Caiaphus was exiled for refusing to help them defeat the Vrai, something that enraged Starok. Starok felt threatened by having an Elite Makuta in the Brotherhood's ranks, and feared that he would soon take control, so he gathered a small group of Makuta he worked closely with. He proposed to these Makuta the plan of manipulating Destral's Kanohi Olmak to take them to another planet, where they could start the Brotherhood anew. Some agreed to go along with this idea, like Ordak and Kulnak, while some decided to stay behind but wished them luck, like Ferox. It worked, and the supporting Makuta were beamed onto Stelta-Stal to found the TrSBoM.

Starok built a base that rested on the planet's core. From here, he watched the development of the TrSBoM across the sector for around 150,000 years. During the Uterio War, he fell into a deep sleep, and was awoken by a telepathic message from Ferox. Ferox had forgotten that Starok was part of the TrSBoM and not the BoM, so he had requested several random Makuta, Starok included, to pick him up from an asteroid. Starok found that during the war all of his bases except one had been destroyed, and raged. With this, he woke Ordak, Kulnak and Kuli and demanded that they fetch Ferox to bring to him. After Kulnak reported that Ferox had already been picked up by Xintrix during the time they had been bickering, Starok changed his mind and decided that the TrSBoM should ally with Caiaphus instead. He had Ordak locate Caiaphus, and together they entered a wormhole to meet him on Malchior IV.

Trivia

 * Starok's name, position, and the TrSBoM itself were all created by JS. However, as Starok never appeared in the RPG in person, KoN decided to introduce him properly himself to complete the unfinished plot of the TrSBoM.
