FINAL: Broken Creature

Description

Here's the finished piece (I've decided to leave the previous one up, just so I can see how I changed the original)

He doesn't have a name, maybe you guys can help out with that? But he does have a history.

He's one of about 12 survivors of his species that have been mercenaries throughout history. They've fought in wars across the galaxy and this guy's got the scars to prove it. They were prized for their near invunerability on the battlefield and the last 12 creatures have carved a name for themselves in the stars. They are almost legend amongst the factions at war with one another and are highly revered warriors.

This one of the 12 has somehow managed to sustain massive injuries resulting in double amputation. One of his arms is a huge dozer jaw with imperial armour-plating (Strange combination, I know, but these guys have a habit of picking up unique pieces of weaponry). His other arm is only missing his hand, and has in place an ancient arcane blade inscribed with runes. Scholars across the known galaxies can't decipher the runes, in fact, very few dare to get close enough to look at it. The blade has brought insane destruction and taken countless lives throughout the course of history. The creature is only the second to wield it, and tore it from it's previous masters hands (the hands came with it unfortunately)

This particular creature is sometimes known as 'The Monster', and with good reason. Wars have been won by this creature that otherwise would've resulted in defeat, and he'll fight for anyone... anyone who pays the right amount anyway.
