Hello Bzpower, and welcome to what I can only describe as the largest collection of runaway imagination that I have ever put together. It all started with an off-hand comment on someone else's picture, which I followed with a satirical picture of my own, then a description that turned into a short story, which spawned a 'sequel' that ended up longer than planned with every chapter... And here we are, Word document upon Word document later. I've been posting this on DeviantArt and the TTV boards for a while now, but have now decided to share it here as well. So, without further ado, I invite you to join me on Spherus Magna, thousands of years after the Reformation, looking through the eyes of a young Toa of Psionics who's about to come face to face with legends of old... legends to whom time has not been kind. Welcome everyone, to... "It is our great folly: we helped create this paradise, but have no reason to exist in it. ...in this world that neither needs nor wants us, we slowly fade away." - Toa Gali Nuva [Review Topic] In 'The Folly of the Toa," I wanted to explore some of Bionicle's most famous characters, the Toa Nuva, from a different viewpoint than the romances, the 'hero's stories' that they usually show up in. I aimed for a downfall instead: a tragedy. Obviously, the Toa Nuva are mighty heroes, but the question quickly arose: what do the heroes do when there's nothing to fight, or no one to fight for? Or, to paraphrase one government official from "The Dark Night Rises" concerning Commissioner Gordon: 'They are war heroes. This is peacetime.' What do heroes, who have known nothing but combat, do in peacetime? Throughout G1's story line, the Toa Nuva accomplish many great deeds and face many dangers, but they certainly aren't without flaws, or as Gali describes them, "...our own demons." They were also always prone to bickering among themselves, but they always had a common enemy to unite them: the Makuta. In the wake of the Battle for Bara Magna and the subsequent Reformation, the Toa managed to keep themselves busy, but sooner or later that lack of an enemy, a threat to face up against, created an opportunity for those demons to rise... And as our protagonist, Lis, will soon find out, they have the power to topple giants. The Chapter List: [The Prologue] Note: when I wrote this, I had no idea how much this story would snowball. Therefore, it was never originally intended as a prologue, but more as a 'journal entry' by Gali, something to go along with a picture to provide some background and explore an idea that arose from that picture's discussion. It's still accurate, however, so I figured sticking it in as the prologue was the most appropriate thing I could do with it.

Hello and welcome!Unlike its predecessor, you play as a Matoran in this game (the Chronicler to be exact!) A titan named Nui Laka used a sonic beacon to unleash fearsome monsters called Bohrok iupon Mata Nui. After Ta-Koro gets attacked by a swarm of Kohrak, Turaga Vakama calls on a Lava Farmer and Guard Soldier named Aft to go to the six Swarm Headquarters around Mata Nui and collect the Krana Xa from the six Bohrok swarms. With the six Krana Xa, the Toa Mata will be able to go into the Bohrok Nest and activate the Exo-Toa, which can be used to defeat the Bohrok Queens. Though the other Dark Toa from Episode 1 left Mata Nui, Wokapu Absolute soon returned, teaming up with Kenzor, the Toa of Nightmares, and Ronkshou, the Toa of Electricity, still a slave to the new Makuta who replaced Teridax. They now work for Nui Laka, and have called themselves the Dark Vengeance, avenging the death of the Conqueror, Teridax. Like in Episode 1, things are not what they seem, and alignments have become shadier than ever before.
