Creation
After Maul was cut in half he needed a replacement for his legs wich were cut off by Obi-wan kenobi. He went to Lotho Minor for help. Not much is known about the creation but it is possible that the Junkers did it for him. A piece of evidence is that the legs were made of junk.

Help at last
After a whole decade Maul's mangled legs were in dire need of upgrades to improve his movement. His brother Savage Opress was exploring the cave when he ran into Darth Maul. They had a brief fight but Maul was forced into retreat but his legs were not allowing him to run properly. The had a brief discussion Morley came into the tunnel wanting his leftovers of a presumed dead Savage Opress. He was blamed for Maul's poor health and was killed after. His body was thrown into the fire. Opress questioned his legs and how long the broken sith lord had been in the cave for. Savage convinced Maul to return to Dathomir for upgrades for his legs. As soon as Maul heard upgrades he quickly agreed to go.

Upgrades
They arrived on Dathomir but Maul was now hesitating to meet Mother Talzin. Talzin met Savage outside. The witch used her magic powers to get Maul to come to the Nightsister cave. Maul was put to a enchanted sleep but his legs were not getting any commands from Maul's body and they malfunctioned badly. Talzin restored Maul's health and used battle droid parts. She divided the six legs up into three and connected them together with the droid parts to make a two legs. It was more suitable afterwords. Talzin woke Maul up and disappeared.

Raydonia
The two brothers went to Raydonia and destroyed an entire raydonian village. The jedi viewed the hologram that was sent. They were surprised by Maul's impressive leg replacement. Obi-wan kenobi went to Raydonia to investigate. Maul appeared and the fire really showed his legs off. Savage Opress soon appeared and knocked Obi down and he was taken captive. Soon Asajj Ventress came and hitched a ride on the turtle tanker. Ventress distracted the two brothers and they went to look for her. Soon they found the two had teamed up. In the skirmish Maul's new legs gave him an advantage over the jedi and Nightsister. Later the enemy escaped. Maul walked to the bridge to conclude if it was over.

Characteristics and Design
The first set had a pulley system that allowed him to go taller if needed. It was destroyed when Talzin upgraded his legs. The legs were very similar to General Grievous's ones. Only Grievous's were more higher in class. That similarity happened when they were upgraded. Nothing special was equipped with them. They were just plain cybernetic legs. The design was only made for the fist set. Only it was not well thought out. Maul had no mind to design a pear of cybernetic legs. Unless the junkers did it. It is possible if Talzin got a vision of Grievous's legs she would've based the upgrades on his legs.
