Description

Darth Bane fights a technobeast.
Technobeasts were part machine, part organic Sithspawn mutants. They were created by infecting living organisms with the nanogene spore, a technovirus developed through a combination of Sith alchemy and a Force technique called mechu-deru. The virus grew metallic tumors over the bodies of its victims, ultimately lobotomizing their brains and transforming them into weaponized cyborgs. Living subjects from a number of different species were infected by the virus, spawning mutated amalgamations of metal and flesh in a variety of shapes and sizes.
Based on the description from the book, I used my own imagination to create the technobeast. I mentioned once that according to Karpyshyn's book, Bane always wore a shirt over his orbalisk armor, as he had to keep it hidden. That's why I never showed the armor completely in the scene illustrations. Several of you asked me to show off the armor better. Here you go. I promise I'll come back to the orbalisk armor in the future and show it in more detail.
