Flawless Claw Clan

Meet one of the UN-GDI Special Teams, Flawless Claw Clan.

Like my other artworks with MOTU-related, I've watched one of the episodes from He-Man and the Masters of the Universe called the "Island" and it was pretty good episode. I don't have to say twice from Webstors but I only wish if there's more of each character's race; most of them are already known but there are more of those races in Eternia and maybe one day there'll be the new animated series in future. That's my opinion, actually.

Let's talk about the artwork. I've created the original character with eyepatch and metal claw while the rest are modeled from Clawful's race but now instead I've made resemblance from the characters and added another original character for the team. Theme is piracy and piracy is all about.

Anyways, enjoy my artwork.

Leader: Captain Klawlong Zang

Alignment: Taoist Lotus Clan

Allies: Slifer Pirates

Enemies: Imperial 69

Flawless Claw Clan is the Asian Deadly Alliance and the Ancient Deadly Alliance as well the team member of the UN-GDI as one of the GDI Special Team and the Taoist Lotus Clan. The small clawful band of rouge Clawtoid pirates fight for justice against Captain Kwang Kwal and his evil army and allies from rouge factions and ruthless cartels from the shores and caverns of dark islands to the dark cold seas.

Klawlong Zang was the member of Captain Kwang Kwal, carried out his tasks successfully like delivering drugs in the right time, plundered and looted from rival clans and cartels, and fought many battles against the Lemurians. His fame led the jealousy from Captain Kwal, knowing that he's going to take over his cartel.

As his one last job went awry, Klawlong lost his right claw by the explosion at the shrine and later was captured by Captain Kwal's crew as he was brought to his ship. Beaten and kicked, Klawlong lost his left eye it was cut it off by his nemesis and thrown away to the seas, drifting away while nemesis laughed in treachery.

Drifted to the Horaku Island, Klawlong was picked up by friendly people of the island and his right claw was replaced by metal claw, strong and powerful and it's easy to customize it, and treated well with medical conditions. Days after his treatment, Klawlong sets his journey to the port city of Hongau where he can find and recruit some of the members who were betrayed by Captain Kwal and his cartels. He recruited only six of them but though it's good enough for making a small band of ragtag ex-cartel members. Then he planned to hijack one of Captain Kwal's ships at the docks which it was a success, killing all the crew of one of his ships and escaped from the docks as their hunt for Captain Kwal has begun.

Captain Zang and his crew traveled across the Seas of Jorkang, battling seaway pirates and hunting his cartels from each island controlled by their nemesis, disrupting their illegal operations, freeing the slaves and prisoners, and liberating the island. Captain Zang and his crew were hailed as heroes while they're redeeming themselves as long they had a vow to destroy Captain Kwal and his evil clan.

As they've reached the Kwal Island, Captain Zang and his crew were about embark their greatest challenge, battling the entire armada of Captain Kwal and breaching through his massive fortress. The battle was enraged and hard and brutal until they have the opportunity to reach into his fortress by tricking them as one of theirs and then ambushed as they caught them by surprise. After their ambush, they've fought their way to reach Captain Kwal's keep as Captain Zang goes to confront his nemesis while his crew fight on against his army. Captain Zang fought his way into his keep singlehandedly and finally reached Captain Kwal as he tried to escape but failed as he was force to fight him in a mortal combat which he defeated him in a fair but brutal fight. Captain Zang was about to finish him but then suddenly, his Aura was unlocked and stopped him from killing. Instead, he captured him alive and bring him and other surviving criminal members to authorities, clearing their names and free to go as redeemed heroes.

Captain Zang and his crew hailed as Heroes of the Jorkang Seas and they named the pirate clan "the Flawless Claw Clan", hence their actions of flawless strategies and battles.

In 21st century, the Flawless Claw Clan were mentioned by the Chinese and the Filipino news media that they've hijacked the terrorists' ship in South China Seas and docked at the ports of Ho Chi Minh City; that brought attention to the UN-GDI and they located them at the small island in Spartly Islands.

As they were founded by the UN-GDI, they accepted their offer join them as one of ten GDI Special Teams.
