"You see me now, a veteran
Of a thousand psychic wars..."

Orde is the first Toa of Psionics in the Matoran Universe, making them over 100,000 years old. Psionics is in theory a female element; unfortunately, due to Greg Farshtey's bizarre reluctance to write more than one woman at once, Orde is male. He gives a justification so hamfisted I won't repeat it here. I've chosen to ignore all of that and just make Orde non-binary with they/them pronouns. It's what Demitsorou did and I thought it was cool. (link: demitsorou.deviantart.com/art/… )

My Orde is heavily based on this one (link: www.eurobricks.com/forum/index… ), which I found while looking into custom torso ideas. A solid custom torso is the foundation of any Toa MOC. I was so taken with the design I replicated it for myself, with a number of additions and changes to increase the level of detail. Their swords and back are my own design. I wanted to work in more trans-purple parts to represent their psionic powers, but I was unfortunately limited in that regard. Technically a Toa of Psionics shouldn't need a tool to channel their powers, but the swords are cool. I've made them able to store their swords on their back anyway, leaving their hands free for psionic shenanigans.

(Orde's 100,000 years old and was made by the Great Beings personally, why does no-one talk about this? Orde can probably remember what they look like! They've lived long enough to have personally fought a thousand wars like in the song!)
