Hok’ee Tso bore his name out of circumstances beyond his control. He never knew his father simply because his father never knew about Hok’ee. His mother found out she was to bear Hok’ee long after his father left for the war. For fear of dishonoring her family, Hok’ee’s mother left her tribe never to return. When Hok’ee was born, she felt that a name that meant “abandoned” was fitting for him. The town’s people ridiculed Hok’ee and his mother and called them “savages” in reference to their Native American heritage. After his mother passed away, Hok’ee began a life of petty theft and violence to survive. He soon he lived up to his nickname, Savage, after he joined a brotherhood known as the Mauraders that helped him attain wealth and power. After the Mauraders were disbanded, Plague found him and offered him something he couldn’t refuse…an augmented mind and body with the promise of more power and wealth than he could imagine. Now, Savage fights for the cause of the Collective of the Curse. His recipe is a modified Crash head, Crash's torso, Troll's arms and Troll's legs with a full repaint.

Savage is a Navajo Native American who, as you may have already guessed, is the older half-brother of Rain (unbeknownst to both at this time). Just figured a twist in the storyline would be fun. I knew once I modified the Crash head, he would be painted a darker complexion. He couldn't be African-American due to the flowing hair that is still on his head. I couldn't get the eyes right to make him Asian (though he does bear a likeness to me) so I made him Native American. I gave his hair a gray wash to show he is a little older. You may not be able to see it very well, but he has a vague 5 o'clock shadow. He wields a machete as his primary weapon. I didn't want to give him a gun since he has the gun on his leg. I'd rather have given him a tomahawk, but couldn't find one in the fodder bin.

Cool lookijg figure with a good back story. Thanks, pjr3! He was fun to create. Awesome custom!! Love the look and colour palette and the story is cool too! Thanks, AW! I was really surprised at how well the head turned out. That was the first time I tried my hand at modifying one of them. A little cut here and there makes a huge difference. You can't tell he was Crash at all.
