BZPRPG - Ta-Wahi


Nuju Metru

Recommended Posts

IC: Verulas continued drinking, losing himself in his thoughts as the beverage slid down his throat.

Ever since those bandits attacked his village, the Bo-Toa had developed the habit of surviving even as everyone else around him had fallen. Half of the time his own skills had saved his hide, and the other half was pure luck, but nearly all of the time he was the last being of the group standing. This didn't just apply to comrades in arms either; some of the time it was civilians who had never even heard his name who's corpses littered the ground, left beaten, stabbed, shot, or otherwise covered in their own blood long after they had felt death's sweet embrace.

It was where he should have been, and he knew it.

Why the universe had taken everyone within spitting distance of him on occasions too numerous to count, yet left him alive, he did not know. He had prayed to Mata Nui like all of the good little Matoran, wanting nothing but for him to look after those he had called his friends in his slumber, yet he always seemed to find himself watching them die no matter how much he had done so. He had walked the streets of a city in the midst of a revolution, surviving both a group of guards opening fire into a crowd of people and a rebel suicide-bomber destroying a few shops located inside the village's market district in the same week. He had been laid up in countless hospitals belonging to more isolated settlements, watching patients succumb to both disease and injury, yet was usually discharged within a week of his admittance. After a lifetime of near-death encounters, the truth had finally dawned on him.

The "Great Spirit" didn't give a Karz about anyone but himself.

Verulas may have conciously developed his sarcasm as a way of keeping others at a distance, for that was the only way he knew that they would even remotely stand a chance in this unforgiving world, but his pessimistic attitude was forged from a life of pain, vigorously mixed in with no small amount of suffering. He was, in truth, an empty shell of a man; a lost soul only tethered to this realm by a purpose long forgotten. The fact that he was even destined to become a Toa was like a running joke with a never-ending punchline of misery, and all he wanted to do was kill the clown who had told it in the first place. Everytime he took a swing, however, the only thing he ever ended up accomplishing was getting someone else caught in the crossfire.

Someone like Celsakh, who he had only helped out of the selfish desire to bypass a few guards so he could find somewhere to rest.

He was a ghost. A spectre.

All he was waiting for was for someone to come along and put him to rest.

The Bo-Toa finished his beer, placing the bottle inside the bag with the rest of the Matoran's food before turning to Veteran and Guarsman Apolon.

"I've finished what I came here to do. We can head back to Ko-Wahi whenever you're ready."

IC-Tavari and Rendo

 

Rendo glanced past at the Lava surging through the hallway from inside the tunnel. "That was close!"

Tavari, on the other hand, was looking into the darkness ahead of them. Silently, She formed a ball of lightning in her hand, and using the light, she looked into the hazy gloom ahead of them.

IC: Dakku (Tunnels beneath Mount Mangai)

 

Someone, however, decided to save me. I was dragged away by a Ta-Matoran woman to safety. Other members of the expedition were all around me, and it seemed that everyone was alright. I pulled my hand away from the Matoran's grasp, and asked "Why did you save me?" with an ungrateful tone. I admit, it was an odd thing to ask, but I saw myself as having been a burden for the group, for I had no useful skills or powers. I had promised to take care of myself. While I waited for her to answer, I rubbed my sore wrist, for she had pulled it quite hard.

"Ugh, I don't want to get wet again."

 

IC:

 

Couldn't blame her for that one.

 

"In that case," I said, unstrapping my swords, shucking my coat, wrapping the former in the latter, passing the collection to the girl, "you can act as a temporary whadayacallit, uhhh ... squire! Yeah, squire. Just hang onto my stuff till I get back, 'kay Mim?"

IC: "We don't need his approval. As a Toa Kalta, I'm going there anyway to find the rest of our team. That's probably a reasonable excuse to get in; they probably don't know of the Kalta's existence. For all I know, they could have died in the battle as defenders, or been taken prisoner."

The times, they are a-changing...

"I'm not sure asking the Akiri's permission, then going behind his back if he says no, is the best idea." Wisp pointed out.

 

Mirra nodded in agreement. "You don't want to make an enemy of the Ta-Koro guard."

IC: Casanuva exhaled in relief. "Whew. Good." He regained his composure. "Er, uh, what do you mean by adventure? My team is kind of busy right now."

 

IC: Kalyss shook her head. "I wouldn't be lying, simply telling him as it is. My teammates are likely in Ko-Koro, and I am heading there. We are, at least. If there is any foul play involved, Vakua's there. He's a walking litmus test for intent."

 

Vakua raised his eyebrow.

"Okay, I'll concede that you might have a point there," Mirra admitted. 

 

"We'll go along with it for now," Wisp agreed, "but just remember that we live here in Ta-Koro. Try not to get the Akiri too angry, okay."

Lucira looked at Dakku as if he’d grown another head.

 

“I’d be a poor guardsman, not to mention a coldhearted matoran, if I didn’t. You’re not that heavy.”

 

If Lucira had her way, Dakku would have never been let on the expedition, but that didn’t mean she was going to let him die. Does he think I'm that cold? she thought. What kind of treatment is he used to from guards?

IC: Kaeren

 

After a bit of training with Loren and the other trainee guards Kaeren returned his wooden-training weapons to the armory and then departed down one of the hallways of the Ta-Koro Guard HQ. He felt better now after getting a little bit of sparring in, he felt limber and ready for anything. Kaeren continued down the hallway until reaching the guards at the exit, showing them his Guard credentials before they allowed him to pass out into the streets of Ta-Koro.

 

As Kaeren began down the street, it felt as if something was going on underground, he felt a slight tremor but it was gone as soon as he felt it. Huh, wonder if there is a lava flow going on somewhere... He wondered. He hadn't actually lava-surfed since his days as a Matoran. Kaeren decided that he would go look for a good place to get a drink and decide what to next from there.

IC: Verulas walked back around to the front of the shop before handing the Onu-Matoran Celsakh's journal.

"Take good care of it now," he said as he waited for Apolon to take the lead.

Septima nudged Natharius as the group once again appeared in front of the shop.

"They're moving," she whispered.

OOC: Figured it was about time for some character development.

On another note, is Apolon just escorting us back to the gate, or are we actually going to Guard HQ first?

"Okay, I have some things to pick up." It had been over an hour. The weapon salesman would be expecting him back by now. "I'll be waiting for you near the city gates when I'm done taking care of this."

"Deal," he started to walk away, then stopped. "And... thanks. For everything you've done for me so far." It had been a long time since he'd felt able to trust a stranger. He began heading off in the direction of the marketplace.

IC: Natharius.

 

Leaving Septima to her hunting, Natharius returned to the same stall he'd dropped the Confetti Cannon off at. The Matoran vendor looked at him expectantly, and Natharius reluctantly handed over another of the pouches of widgets. "I hope all of the modifications are to your satisfaction," the Matoran said, seeming quite pleased with himself as he passed the weapon over to Natharius. The skakdi took the launcher and turned it over in his hands, before putting it down and taking it apart, piece by piece, inspecting each component before putting it back together. "Good job."

 

The Matoran beamed at him, his expression becoming a little more smug. "Now, was there anything else I could help you with?" the vendor asked hopefully, eyeing Natharius' satchel, where he kept his widgets. 

 

"Ammunition," Natharius said brusquely, "I need a few dozen empty cartridges, and enough Stralix Powder to fill all of them. No offence, but I don't trust shop-bought explosives; I prefer to make my own." Plus, he wanted to add a few more things to the mix before he started shooting anyone with this.

 

The Matoran shrugged. "To each their own, I guess." Natharius handed over a final handful of widgets for the ammo, then, after a quick thankful handshake with the vendor, he slung the launcher over his shoulder and started on the long walk back towards the city gates.

 

OOC: Natharius open for interaction.

IC: Kalyss exhaled. "Well, it looks like we know what we are doing... and we don't really have the same time limit we had before. We should probably wait for Casanuva. So we are at our strongest when we tell the Akiri our plans. I'm not preparing for a fight, I just think we should look like we can handle ourselves."

IC: Dakku (Tunnels beneath Mount Mangai)

 

I was somewhat ashamed when she told me that she's a guardswoman. It was her duty to protect the weak and save those in trouble. I lowered my head, slightly embarrased, and avoided eye contact with her, and replied "Well.. if you're a guard, I suppose you were just doing your job.. Sorry about that, I should be grateful! Thank you for saving my life.." I didn't know her name, so after a moment of hesitation I decided to leave it there, and instead look for Hile and Venemi. "Um, excuse me, but I must know if my friends are alright.." I said, my tone slightly awkward.

"Well that's great," I said as I stood up again, "look-feels like this'll turn-end for the better after all"

After reaching the city proper, I really felt like I could use a place to drop down and catch my breath.

 

Tomorrow... tomorrow I'd head home, home and try to catch up with the rest of the gang, or at least with Colx.

 

Yeah, that'd be alright.

I gave the little guy a grin and clapped him on the back.

 

"Glad to have you aboard, Yasu," I told him, then looked over the edge of the ship, adding, "Metaphorically speakin', o' course. Just make sure you haven't forgotten to leave any of your spears and such with our resident squire."

 

I shot Mim a conspiratorial grin.

IC: Cryal

 

Cryal emerged from the Mangai Volcano, taller, stronger- a toa. As he had figured, charging an air toa stone with fire elemental energy can create a toa of plasma. In the secret place he had woken up in one day (as a Matoran), he was given this stone by a mysterious being saying that he who could find the way to use it to become a toa of plasma, was destined to become one. This mysterious being may have been a Makuta, thinking he would just leap into a giant pool of lava, destroying himself and the stone (which he probably would have done, had he not gotten a metal strong enough to conduct the lava's heat into the stone without melting instantly). He floated down by projecting plasma jets through his super-heated hammer (draining much of his power; by the time he reached the ground, he could hardly stand). Rather than taking pride in figuring out how to become this being, the first thought that came to his mind was: "Why the Karzahni didn't I chose to have a Kanohi Pakari?! I could be wielding this HUMONGOUS thing with ease, what good is CAMOUFLAGE when I'm stuck with something you could feel a mile away whenever it hits the ground? The Volitak does also make you silent, but still... at least this thing's pretty powerful."

 

Unsure of what to do now, he wandered off into the Charred Forest, looking for... he didn't know, a Makuta to battle, maybe? He was new at this.

 

OOC: Let me know if I'm doing this right.

"Redhot!" The Ta-Toa's voice sounded out, after walking for a few minutes. Her gaze wandered the forest around her, aware that she had now moved outside of what she knew of the region. She hadn't explored the Charred Forest much when she was younger, if only to avoid the more dangerous creatures that had been under Makuta's control. She was brave, not suicidal. 

 

"Where are we?"

"Just a little west of east!" Redhot called back cheerfully. "Within a couple minutes we should--oh, hey! We're closer than I thought! Here, can I show you?"

 

Gingerly, he held out a hand to Saeva, ready to boost her up on his shoulders.

 

"It's that big dot about yay or so yards away. We can reach it in no time!"
