A few weird looks here and there, but other than that everyone seemed too preoccupied to notice the newcomer.After almost colliding with a few Matoran and tripping over an unattended fishing pole, someone in a nearby crowd caught Ranir's eye.No. Friggin'.

SnowyAegis Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 IC:WasukaWasuka heard someone calling out things. Usual stuff, not like 'You need to hit that button or the world ends' or 'Fifteen Tarakava are marching on the village, everybody book it' or something. She begun to ignore it, until she heard 'With the spear'. Who here had spears? She had a spear. She had a big spear, too. The sharpened tip was a little over a solid foot long. She looked over, towards whoever was shouting. ... Okay. Hm. Yeah. Another Araka. Coo-ee, how surprising. Well, it was. A bit. It also made sense, sending a single member of your species to investigate an island is silly. If they slipped and broke their neck, nobody would know. She didn't think she'd bee seeing other members of her species so soon, though. "Uh, hey, yeah!" She waved. My profiles Read my Epic:Tales of Aoris Nui!Profile pic by Soulemn on DA!

GSR Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 IC [Rhow - The Great Takea]: She harrumphed. The little one still hadn't quite explained how being aboard the ship at the wrong time led to being dragged along as punishment. "And they didn't - y'kno - surface again to kick you off? And what in Karz is a Rora?" IC: Soraya [The Great Takea] The Dashi snorted at that. "Sure, they were gonna turn the boat around to deal with some random saihoko who stuck her nose where it didn't belong. Nah, it was easier to put me on scrubbing duty for the next few weeks. I'll give the admiral points for making use of her resources, I guess. "As for what a Rora is - head honchess of the empire. Course, our current one wasn't expecting to get the job for another decade, most likely, but..." She trailed off and took another, very cautious sip of her drink. "Look, the whole situation's a mess, is all I'm saying." Hey: I'm not very active around BZP right now.

She looked over her shoulder at Azureus."I'm going outside to get some fresh air. If you need something, just call me."Kanonu left her hut and went to the docks.

She scratched the back of her neck, briefly glancing over Ranir's shoulder at the treeline on the far side of the beach."Who knows, maybe it's the jungle that's a death sentence here, and the shores are the safest place to be.

She gestured towards a group of Matoran."The other was...taller. About our height...ish. They told me nobody wears helmets here, and they all use these freaky masks. Maybe they're immune to being shot in the back of the head. Boy, that'd be a power I'd want." She made some simple gestures about masks, before properly noticing that what she thought was the front of Ranir's helmet was actually another mask."...Ssspeaking of masks, why you got that one?

Shadow Destroyer Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 IC: Silo - Ga-Koro IC: Kaikino felt his face contort in disgust as his employer "introduced" them to the moldy door and the dark, dank, deep passageway past it. It wasn't the first underground cavern Kaikino had been in, but the door itself didn't give him a good feeling; the fact that his employer had to break said door to open it gave him a bad one. Kaikino followed suit though, and slowly stepped downwards. Money was money, and this might end up being one of the better paying jobs he had. IC: Serith Serith saw the look of disgust pass over the Vortixx's face, and he imagined that he looked the same way as well. The Toa of Crystal was used to doing dirty work, but he still never enjoyed it as much as the easier contracts. "After you." He said to the Vortixx, and followed the tall being as they stepped into the doorway. Thank you to the Dark Beings Banner and Avatar Shop for the banner!

silo Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 (edited) IC: Silo - Warehouse, Ga-Koro We continue down the steps, a smug look of satisfaction passing across my face as I hear the two other toa following behind me. "Wait here." I say to them as we halt at the foot of the slime-ridden staircase. The doorway behind and above me turns the complete darkness into mere shadows for a few metres, but walking briskly I soon enter absolute, impenetrable black. It doesn't matter, since I can feel around me with my mask - a trick I learnt years ago. Admittedly, it requires a lot of concentration, and I haven't mastered it. But it should help to get a feel for my surroundings here. Even so, I have my hearing focused: the door didn't look damaged in any way, but some filth-covered beggar has probably snuck in in the months since I was last here. Indeed, I'm just having this thought when I feel a form that's moving slightly, yards away. I reach out with my intangible 'arms', brushing over the thing, its shape appearing in my mind's eye. Somebody's sleeping there - probably just some homeless vagabond, too drunk to care. Better safe than sorry, though. Ever so quietly, I dislodge a scrap of nearby metal, probably once a pipe, and strike it down quickly at the invisible figure. I hear a sound somewhere between a crunch, a squelch, and a clang. And then there's a slight 'poof' as the figure slumps to the floor. With that out of the way, I try to find the box. Of course I could just obliterate the place, but I can't make too much noise - much as I'd love to. Oh, sometimes I wish I had been born a Fa-Toa. Then I remember what Casanuva is, and that thought dispels its predecessor. With this in mind, I use another trick I've learnt over the years. I send a wave of gravity out from me which lifts everything it touches into the air a few centimetres before lowering it to the ground. Now of course, I know which crates are the heaviest. Heading in the direction of the most weighty of them all, I bore a hole straight in front of me. I grin once again as I hear the crate's rotten wood tear and spray apart to reveal the ping ping sound of a (telekinetic) knife against metal. Immediately ripping the now rusted metal box open, I am equally satisfied by the clink of coin within. It's all in bags, so I grab a few for my accomplices. I can't remember how much cash is in each, but it'll be at least enough for two mercs, if not more. I'm not bothered, though: I'll be generous today, since I'm in such a good mood.Stepping back into the relative light, I survey my two new weapons wordlessly before doing anything with the money.

Toa Azarius Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 IC: Azureus Azi stepped out of the house, and as he did he felt something tug at the back of his mind. a word, a name; Nokama. he knew it wasn't his. but it seemed familiar. suddenly, an image floated into his mind. it was a Toa of Water, dual blades in hand, a Kanohi Rau covering her face. there were five other figures around her, teammates probably. "something isn't right here" Azureus thought to himself. Activating his Kakama, he sped across Ga-Koro, searching for Kanonu, if anything, she'd have answers. he came to a screeching halt as he saw her near the docks. " hey Kanonu?" he asked, " was there a Toa(?) Nokama here at any point?"

She looked at the tall figure and tapped the desk she was sitting on."Was there a Toa Nokama here at any point?" He asked.Kanonu froze. Her expression darkened. "She is... was... the Turaga of Ga-Koro. I don't recall her ever being a Toa, there are only tales and legends she and other Turaga used to tell. She was a wonderful person, really.

Toa Azarius Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) IC: Azureus Something was very, very wrong. Azureus held a hand to his mask as he tried to process what he had just been told. Where he came from, Nokama was a Toa, and she sure as Karz wasn't dead, or a Turaga. There was only one Turaga he knew, and he betrayed his island and it's protectors. "Where, or when, am i?" Azureus thought. "Oh, sorry to hear that. I was just gonna give a message from an old Friend." He told Kanonu. Where ever he was, he knew something, at one point or another, went wrong.

Toa Azarius Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) IC: Azureus Azi actually DID know Nokama, and her whole team. Heck, he even trained them. But for some reason, he knew telling her the truth would probably either get him arrested, or reveal something that shouldn't have been revealed. He decided to lie to the Matoran, hoping that she knew less than he did. "I met her a while back, her and five other Turaga." He told her, hoping the lie would hold up, "We used live on the same island. I thought they were crazy at first, that nobody could be trusted after what had happened to my team. But after a while, They helped me, taught me things I didn't even know I could do. They left after a while, though. Now I see where they went and why they left."
