Drakua Toa of Rahi Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 (edited) Name: Tahnok NuvaSpecies: Modified Bohrok chassisPower/Weapon 1: Shadow Krana Xa - a Krana mutated by Makuta to emulate the strength of a shadow Kraata, it is, however simply a strong Krana Xa that has been stripped of any light it had.Power/Weapon 2: A large War hammer with which it channels its fire based attacks. Upon the neck of the hammer is a Kualsi, a mask it has ripped from the face of a Makuta, and is there as a sign of powerPower/Weapon 3: It can manipulate heat of an area to its whim, if it channels enough power, it can transform the space around it, ground turning to magma, turning water into heated steam instantly and making the air burn.Appearance: Being an extensively modified Bohrok, it is a hodgepodge of parts used to stabilize the shell, which had been introduced to energized Protodermis and mutated. It is much larger than an ordinary Bohrok, around 10 feet tall, due to the heavy containment armor. Many rough spines cover its back as a design element a Makuta wanted incorporated. some of these spines carry over to its right arm, which carries its hammer normally. Its other hand is quite large and can easily hold a matoran. It has thick, reinforced legs carrying its large torso. It has two pairs of eyes on its slightly larger head. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Drakua/Creations/image.jpgBio: Created in a matoran lab under the supervision of a Makuta, the Tahnok Nuva was an ordinary bohrok that the Makuta in question wanted to figure out how to control. It underwent many experiments, but all were failures. That is, until the Makuta gave the matoran under his employ access to an experimental shadow Krana. With the shadow Krana under it helm, it became smarter, biding its time and following orders until it could escape and return to its queens. Unfortunately, the Makuta didn't stop at making it obey. He introduced the bohrok to energized protodermis, morphing it into something almost unrecognizable. But the process caused more problems than it helped. The newly changed bohrok chassis was unstable, and prone to violent power surges. One of the Matoran working the project saw this and got to work repairing the body with newer mechanisms to replace the damage. But, upon reactivation, the now complete Bohrok Nuva attacked the worker, and went on the war path towards the Makuta responsible for its pain. Thank Nuva eventually was able to confront, and kill, its creator, and took the Makuta's Hammer and mask as a trophy of his defeat.Personality/Other: Tahnok Nuva is an angry soul, normally quiet and contempt of the creatures around it. However, when it comes to the Makuta, it is quick to want to smash their shells and burn their essence. For a Bohrok though, he is quite a bit smarter thanks to its Shadow Krana Xa powering its quick and strategic thinking. It only cares to serve its queens, but due to their absence, it has learned to make due on its own, destroying whatever gets in its way. He'll only make conversation when it suits his needs, taking on a masculine voice and demeanor. He is however struggling with his newly found sentience, and may occasionally revert to its prior programing when not thinking about it. He seems to be using this tournament as an outlet for his anger and contain his primal urge to cleanse. I hope Tahnok Nuva gets accepted. He is eager to let loose.

Tea-rex Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Oh sh...oot I should have introduced my Bohrok into this game.That also reminds me I need to update that. :shady: BZPRPG profiles / Corpus Rahkshi Profiles / Matoran un Panzar profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chro Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Since the Krana Xa's power is "merely" complex strategy, I think it balances out with the physical advantage that Tahnok Nuva may have over other contestants; for that reason, Tahnok Nuva is approved. So, question. If the Host tried to copy the power of a powerless fighter, what would happen? Would he retain his previous power, or get the power of powerlessness, or what?If the Host tried to copy a power but there was no power to copy, nothing would happen - he'd still retain his prior copied power. save not only their lives but their spirits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaeraz Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Okay, so, followup question. If he tried to copy the power of a previously powered combatant, whose power has since been sealed away or reduced to uselessness, would he be able to copy it at full strength, or not at all?

Makuta Miras Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Characters that are approved after the beginning of the story are introduced as if the organisers had just teleported them in, so Tahnok Nuva would simply appear in the corridors or wherever without any weird timey-wimey shenanagins going on.

And even normally, when the Host copies someone's power, his copied version would tend to be stronger than the original one.

Smudge8 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Name: Venom Huntress Species: “Protector” Power/Weapon 1: Huntress has the control of Poison. This grants her immunity to all toxins. She also poisons anything she touches, causing plants to wilt and animals to become ill. She has learned to control this power to some extent, and can modulate between mild sickness and life threatening. She can use this power to coat her weapons in venom. She normally wears gloves. Power/Weapon 2: She carries two large, curved daggers. When laced with poison wounds inflicted by these blades quickly become infected. Power/Weapon 3: Small, hand held gun, It fires off a quick burst of six shots before it must be reloaded. The shots are painful but leave no permanent damage. When poisoned the wounds will not be any more serious but the pain inflicted by them will not go away. Appearance: She is roughly the size of a Matoran/Agori. Her armor is green and purple. She wears the standard mask for her species, it is green and yellow, swooping back in a V-like shape. She wears gloves to help control her power as well as a black cloak. Bio: Huntress was training to follow in her father’s footsteps and become the next protector of the jungle tribe. She was loved by everyone in the village. However, one day she discovered that she had a strange control over poison. People fell sick and plants wilted and died at her touch. Soon the people of the village distrusted her and her father requested that she leave, for the good of the village. She has been wandering the island ever since. Never staying in one place long enough for anyone to find out about her powers. Personality/Other: Once friendly and open. Huntress has closed herself off, not wanting to make friends she believes she will eventually hurt. She prefers to be alone and gets angry when people don’t realize that. She is also very clever and patient. Six Kingdoms Characters: Mazor, Jephro, The Janitor, Informant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makuta Miras Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 So would Miras' Felnas work a bit like that as well? In the arena, I played it as if it could only affect powers inherent to the person affected and not Kanohi powers, so it'd be nice to know if Miras can choose which power to affect and if the Felnas works on other Kanohi.

Daniel the Finlander Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 (edited) Phazur is dead, finally, so I can post this other profile Name: Feli GemshimmerSpecies: Female Cy-ToaPower 1: Elemental powers of Crystal. Allows her to create and control protodermic crystal.Weapon 2: The Lightbringer, a great sword made out of an alloy of protosteel and protodermic crystal. It's almost metallic in appearance, but is slightly transparent and shimmers like a gem.Tool/Power 3: Kanohi Sana, the Great Mask of Healing. Allows her to quickly heal the injuries of others. Mech: The WraithknightAppearance: Feli is very tall for a Toa, and quite muscular. Her body is strong and agile. Her body is coloured light blue and yellow. Her eyes and her heartlight glow turquoise. She wears a decorated white cloak.Bio: Feli is a templar knight of the Order of Hope, an organization dedicated to protecting and helping the weak. Their knights strive to be strong and virtuous. Feli is an experienced member of the order. She was forced to fight in a Bionifíght tournament once before, but she didn't win.Personality/Other: Feli strives to be a good person, just like all other knights in her order. She's honourable, brave, kind, compassionate.. really, most of the positive traits you can think of fit her. However, she lacks humility, and often overestimates her own skills and abilities. She is very arrogant when dealing with people who appear sinful and wicked. She can also be rather temperamental sometimes, and lacks patience. She is also a very trusting person, meaning that it's easy to betray her. This will make you her mortal enemy, however.
