LEGO Hero Factory MOC: Xarath

In the LEGO Hero Factory universe, two names are feared more than any other:  Von Nebula, and Xarath.  Each time he appears, he wreaks horrific destruction and causes a major disruption to life in the region he targets.  The last time he visited the outskirts of Makuhero City, he surgically disrupted a key fiber optic communications hub by fusing several fiber bundles together with his shoulder-mounted Modulated Fusion Cannon (MFC), scrambling the flow of data and causing overloads at dozens of regional routing stations.  Over 240,000 citizens were left without connectivity to the Ultranet for over a week.  After repairs were completed, the entire Ultranet infrastructure was audited, and only the one physical location Xarath attacked was found to have been able to create such a devastating chain reaction.  Xarath knew exactly where and how to strike.

Xarath's ultimate motivations are not yet clear, but it is believed that he is a rival of Von Nebula and looking to usurp the power of our most well-known super-foe.

Xarath also carries a double-tipped lance, and by removing the blade head it becomes a tripod for the MFC, allowing more precise long-ranged attacks.

LEGO Hero Factory MOC: Narec monster

Now this is one ugly creature.  Its composition is estimated to be 70% organic, 30% inorganic.  It does not appear to possess the ability to communicate in any way.  Its main food source?  Tree roots.  Bizarre, to say the least.  For some reason, there is something about the way decorative trees are grown in cities that makes them more appetizing to the Narec monster, and it has been making ever deeper incursions into populated areas, terrorizing citizens.  It must be captured and taken back to the wild, far away from developed zones!



LEGO Hero Factory MOC: Ryan Fissure

Fissure is a rookie who's being trained to handle an experimental extended-range melee weapon currently called the the WPL-45H.  The weapon features a bladed "stinger" on a tether that connects to a fuel-cell charged crystal capacitor on the wielder's back.  The stinger is whirled in a circular motion on a short length of tether to build up kinetic energy, then it is released directly at the target.  On impact, the tip triggers a pulsed electrical discharge down the tether and directly into the point of impact.  This can almost instantly disable a robotic target, stun a biological one without causing any actual injury, or disrupt an inorganic surface or structure at the molecular level, causing it to weaken and crack along the lines of electrical discharge.
