TERIDAX941 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 As much as I would love Makuta and his species to make a comeback, I think it was the intent of the author to kill him off for good.

He's not coming back. Greg does change his mind, but he doesn't lie; when he says he's gone, that is the current intent. To the original question, the fragment of Aqua Magna destroyed the part that matters -- essentially the brain. If a human's brain is destroyed, the fact that a foot or a hand (or the entire rest of the body) is still there is irrelevant. Of course, it's been proposed there could have been a backup system somewhere in the giant (it isn't a human, after all), but that's where Greg's confirmation that he'd totally dead comes in. 4 Quote The Destiny of Bionicle (chronological retelling of Bionicle original series, 9 PDFs of 10 chapters each on Google Drive): Part 1 - Warring with Fate | Part 2 - Year of Change | Part 3 - The Exploration Trap | Part 4 - Rise of the Warlords | Part 5 - A Busy Matoran | Part 6 - The Dark Time | Part 7 - Proving Grounds | Part 8 - A Rude Awakening | Part 9 - The Battle of Giants My Bionicle Fanfiction (Google Drive folder, eventually planned to have PDFs of all of it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that for a while it won't be entirely drained doesn't mean that it won't reach a point where it IS entirely drained. And it can happen quite quickly.

Makuta Miras Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I guess you could count Icarax as being alive, but in the sense of being an exploded-y mass of particles, then... But still, the only way that I can see Teridax coming back would be if somehow someone recreated the Makuta from the Antidermis pool, and then Teridax's consciousness took one of those Makuta bodies. But again, he probably can't do a Palpatine. (If you've read some of the Star Wars books fairly soon after Episode VI, you'll get what I mean.)

Course, Alt terry could convince the new makuta to drain their shadow, so they're pure light like he is... Indeed. However, Alt. Teridax claims that it takes "years of meditation" to be able to banish your inner darkness completely. That might not be too easy on the newly reformed SM with all the evil influences running around. (Miserix...) If the new Makuta do manage to banish their inner darkness, however, they will be very much stronger for it, but if even one or two falls to the side of darkness, it's bad news. Also Makuta crave recognition; in the Melding they got it - in this universe, they will likely never get it, or it will take a looong time for them to get it, given the big stigma, which could turn more of them to the side of evil. And now since nobody else brought up the small, dull-brown elephant in the room -- let's talk about the possibility of Velika bringing back the species as servants. How about... ...never mind. (I don't play mind games, and this one's older than cheese. It does have the slight advantage of not letting your opponent know what you really want, since you can't tell whether the opponent was aiming for the human-nature reaction of NOT discussing the subject, or the subversion, because the human-nature reaction is very obvious to the person it's aimed at, thus they think they are being tricked. *does not put manipulative tricks past bonesiii* *slow nod*) In any case, I don't think Velika will be bringing the species back. For one thing, he's been killing off wild cards, beings acting outside expected GB parameters. Not only are new beings inherently unpredictable, but according to expected GB parameters aren't supposed to exist. Also, Velika, unlike Alt. Teridax, has very little idea that Makuta can be good. After all, they messed up the universe that he lived in and made a considerable mess. He probably would stack them in with the GB's "failures" - and why revive/bring back a failure? Not only that, he's just a Matoran, and vulnerable to the 42 Kraata powers that Makuta possess. (*wonders if this was a trap to catch the person who would see through the trap, who has been objecting to various people bringing Makuta back all discussion * Whatever.

Pretty sure Greg said something at one point implying he may have done this when killing Tren Krom and/or Karzahni.

Pretty sure Greg said something at one point implying he may have done this when killing Tren Krom and/or Karzahni. Possible. However, I don't think it factored too much in the deaths of TK and Karz; the former knew Velika, so didn't use his mega-mental powers, plus was vulnerable, and the latter was a mental vegetable. Aside from his mask, I don't think Karz had any powers, and I think he was too mentally scattered to use it. I was also thinking he might Ahkmou them, so they might be a lot more predictable than others, actually. He probably wouldn't, though. Maybe.I rate this possibility as unlikely. Greg defined the Makuta's "curse" as being arrogant and always wanting more power for themselves. Even if Velika lied to them, that wouldn't stop at least some of them wanting to supplant Velika as ruler. Even if he turned off their powers, a warhammer smash to the power suppressor machine, and party over. Worse, we have people like Alt. Teridax around, who knows just all of this. The core personality was able to sway most of the Makuta to his side - this one might be able to as well. Granted, Velika might not know about Alt. Teridax, but the luck of the antidermis pool might spawn another mastermind. (But we don't need one, we already have a Teridax!) All of those scheming Makuta might make for a good story, but the problem is that it would be over in 10 minutes - the Matoran Velika would be dead. What happens afterwards, though, could be fun...except that V probably knows all this and doesn't want to die. * * * Another thing: the antidermis pool, if anyone can get to it, probably isn't cool on being used anymore. It seems quite capable of defending itself and it has a mind of its own. I wonder if Alt. Teridax could persuade it, and maybe Velika could override it, but some of the others mentioned it would definitely not agree with. Miserix, for example.
