So wait, I'm the only one enrolled in his class?

I knew I should have gone with Tuck's Long Post 101.

[Vezok's Friend]

Oh look, I work all through Saturday, come back sunday and Ga-Koro has another few citizens dead and huts destroyed. It's like law-enforcement is practically non-existent. Oh wait!

[ZHX]

In the BZPRPG, law enforcers aren't important unless they're player characters.

[Katuko]

As per the 'common sense' guide, however, the local guards are supposed to be more than housemaids that clean up after the battle is already done. If it draws out, guards are bound to show up, and as has been said: in a world of super-powered beings, they would likely not be pushovers.

[ZHX]

Most people disregard that though.

[Katuko]

Doesn't mean we shouldn't complain about it till they stop disregarding it.

Heh. This obviously means we have to give characterisations to every single guard member. They all have feelings, families waiting for them at home and dreams. Doughnut Po-Koronan Guard from back in the hospital after the Wedding Fiasco is one such being.

Alright guys, from now on, every time you kill a guard NPC you have to write in a scene with their family being notified.

It'll be awesome.

In fact, not just guard NPCs -- any NPCs. If you don't, Hub and I will, and it won't be pretty.

I love how Kaithas is pretty much just inviting every single Ga-Matoran in the market to pick him up and carry him away from the village, Rudy-style.

The fact that Austion Powers is telling us this makes me very, very happy.

Also know, all the Ga-Matoran Echelon killed today only had 2 days left until their retirement.

Classic example of pulling a valid point into ridiculousness. No, the guards can remain nondescript, but they're not ragdolls that show up to be beaten up. They're trained professionals who have been briefed on the eventuality that they need to face rogue Toa of various elements so you can bet they will apply at least some strategy to what they do; even if it is just forming a circle of spears around you.

[ZHX]

Okay, maybe not that far, but maybe someday in the future, Evil Guy shall be killed by random peasants who were related to a guard he killed, who served as their family's breadwinner.

So Iris one hit killed a couple NPC toa with lightning.... Oh well.

-Teezy

He wasn't inviting them to carry him away. He's just trying to set things right. Besides, Kaithas isn't as stupid as he looks. He knows somethings weird.

Edited by Toa Kaithas, Sep 09 2012 - 07:29 AM.

[Dallas Winston]

See, that's the problem, though; he shouldn't know something's weird.

These Toa, apart from Wrath, are master actors, and as of right now they've won the hearts and minds of everyone in Ga-Koro almost immediately. Naturally, suspicion is going to be there at first, but you're seeing past their facade and putting together what they really are, and considering the team's been around for all of a day IC, it doesn't a whole lotta sense, nah'mean?

-Teezy

[Kaitholas Cage]

IC:: Things just seem awful convenient. The lieutenant being right there. One of the toa has a Mahiki. The way greed is acting... Doesn't seem normal.

He's very suspicious, but has only said that this warrants investigation.

It'll be very easy to prove or disprove Kaithas' theory after a bit of investigation at a later date.

Hey guys! This is why I had that Ta-koroan guard squad idea earlier! Make villains pay! join now! (through PM)

Edited by Bulik, Sep 09 2012 - 07:41 AM.

[Dallas Winston]

Well, of course the lieutenant would be right there, in the crowd: the size of the brawl Kaithas helped incur, along with the resurgence of the Mark Bearers - one of whom just destroyed the Ga-Koro docks only a couple days ago IC - would be drawing Marines from all across the Koro to see them. It's not a crime to wear a Mahiki, nor is it one to act all high-and-mighty.

Just pointing out that it doesn't really feel like the motives for such suspicion are all there.

The lieutenant being right there? The fight's been going on for a while and the village has quite a few guards within its borders. It's not a stretch in any way to say that there would probably be one present at this point.

The Mahiki on Venedico's face? In this universe, plenty of people have kanohi shaped like one mask that actually have the power of another. Just look at Hau's Miru-shaped Kakama. A Mahiki could be anything from a Faxon to a Kualsi, so there's no reason to believe it has illusionary power based on shape.

Greed acting strangely? Kaithas doesn't have any information on this guy. For all he knows, Greed might be just as devoted to justice and virtuous works as he. Isn't the fact that such a supposed straight hero as Kaithas exists enough for him to think that there could be others out there just like him, no matter how misguided they may be?

[Kaitholas Cage]

Kaithas is leaving, but he's suspicious. He knows better than to act on mere suspicion. The investigation will wait. They're heading to Le koro.

[Constructman: Black Knight]

Ghost hands, please Ic as Echelon. We've waited for like two days for echelon to give any orders

Well, Onuzek's back to normal.

And some random hospital in Le-Koro was trashed.

Jaliax the Second has returned. In a very large post.

*Waits for the shock that comes with a long Hubert post.*

Anyway, she's basically the character I'm placing there so I can absorb the Ga-Koro effect and post a lot, so my post count shall inflate even more! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I'm going to go on record and say that the breaking the news to the families of dead NPCs is a bad idea.

-Teezy

[Varren Rehn]

We aught to set up a rehabilitation center for all the families of dead NPCs...

[Wotsiznaim]

In the disaster that came from Elysi's decision, three Matoran were seriously injured, and one was killed. His family was later informed. He had a wife and three children, and it was his birthday -- they were waiting for him to arrive home so that they could celebrate when they received the news.
This, kids, is why you don't kill people.

OOC: What, you thought I was joking?

This is supposed to be funny, right?

The fact your avatar is the wrecker's symbol during all of this is making it bloody hilarious.

[Bulik]

Is anyone interested in the Ta-koro guard idea I suggested earlier? we just need one more member to get the ball rolling.

[Katuko]

Interested, but not enough to make a new character for it when some of my others are already at a standstill. Maybe if it had come up earlier, I'd have Mevi join in there instead.
