The Maklar

== General Overview ==
The Maklar are a species of relatively unintelligent creatures inhabiting plant A4-562, on the opposite end of Galaxy α̴̛̣̣̉͜͡¦̛̣t̉̉ɔ҈̴҈҉̴҈̵̵̷͠҉̶̶̨҈ from Planet i̴̱͊̌̒̎̃/̸̙̝͖͔̬̯͕̥͗̑-̷̳̖̰̱͕̼̞̣͚̎̊̍͂̆͋̑͘͝ͅ=̴̧̧͚͕̹͇͕̞̩͈͈̗̮̺̗͂̀͘;̷̨̭̜̞̬̖̊̋'̷̦̟̮̼͂̄͛̄͂.. They are most famous for inhabiting the derelict machines of a former species. They use these machines as shells, similarly to a bland-reality hermit crab, and enmesh themselves with their internal circuitry by using their nerves to connect to the main computers.
== Appearance ==
The Maklar themselves are, in terms of appearance, unremarkable. They simply resemble black blobs with no visible appendages. They get around by using pseudopodia similar to a bland-reality amoeba. However, the machines they inhabit are anything but. They range from 10 to 40 feet tall, and are usually humanoid, albeit with large, bulky torsos and heads positioned in the middle of them, making them look hunched. These heads resemble skulls and are usually gold in color. The rest of the machine tends to be black, with gold skull motifs on certain areas, such as barrels of guns, frames of guns, elbows, knees, etc. Most are bipedal, but some have legs akin to a bland-reality spider.
== Weaponry ==
The weaponry of the Maklar's machines vary wildly from individual to individual, and can be quite mix-matched, leading to the common assumption that the machines are modular and it is possible to change out the weapons. If this is possible, however, the Maklar have not found out how to do it. Some found on Maklar machines are as follows:
=== AC-2314 ===
This is a very large gun often mounted to the top of a machine that fires massive artillery shells. These shells are similar to those in a bland-reality artillery weapon, albeit using a much more potent propellant, making the shells able to simply pass through a building and barely lose any energy in the process. It loads via a large drum magazine hidden inside the machine's chassis.
=== AAC-2414 ===
This is a variant of the AC-2314 that fires fully automatically and is belt-fed. This tends to be mounted to the arm of a machine.
=== GL-5316 ===
This is a fully-automatic, belt-fed grenade launcher that fires massive rocket-propelled grenades. These detonate when they come in contact with a sufficiently dense object, creating a massive explosion.
=== GG-6336 ===
This is a Gatling-style rotary cannon that fires artillery shells smaller than those of the AC-2314 but still quite large. It fires at a rate of 4,400 RPM, devastating anything in its path.
Other machines simply have hands in place of weapons, and others even use melee weapons like swords and halberds.
