The Hordika Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 (edited) Hey folks, I've had an idea for this project for a while, and I recently decided to act on it. Generation 2, since its end, has been kind of a sore spot for a lot of people in the community. It had its ups and downs, but ended up falling flat. This is what I want to change. I'm proposing a rewrite of Generation 2, without making it a retread of G1.But, I don't want to do it alone. I was wondering if anyone here would like to collaborate on this project with me. I tried reaching out to a few members here on BZPower, but I figured a post would be easier in case anyone was interested. I'm no professional, but I want to see this project succeed, and be enjoyed. I plan on serializing the story, posting characters on the Tumblr blog (I made it this afternoon, so it is fairly barren right now), and more.This project is in its early stages, as I only have a rough draft of half of Year One. I will be more than happy to share it with people who want to collaborate with me, but for folks who just want to stay posted on the progress, I have the blog address as https://spiritofokoto.tumblr.com/.I hope, once the project begins, that y'all will enjoy it as much as I am. I know that this post is very informal, but if you are at all interested, PM me, reply to this, or follow the blog!

ToaTImeLord Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Do you have any baseline idea to where you want to start? Quote Hey I got a Flickr because I like making LEGO stuff. https://www.flickr.com/people/toatimelord/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hordika Posted June 16, 2017 Author Share Posted June 16, 2017 Do you have any baseline idea to where you want to start?Yes I do. For the first year, I opted to keep the Skull Spiders as the main enemy, but with the story beginning prior to the Toa's arrival on Okoto. The focus will be on the Toa struggling to cooperate and unite against a common enemy, all while trying to find their place in a unfamiliar world. Year One will primarily be used to establish the Okotan mythology and society, and introducing the Toa to the plight of the Great Spirits. The Lord of Skull Spiders will be a much larger foe, the Toa will be more like demigods to the Okotans, and Ekimu will no longer be an islander. Those are probably the more important things that year one will be based of off. I've jotted ideas down on a 21 page saga guide for 2015 that I intended to share with people who wanted to help out. Keep in mind this is just a rough outline, but thank you for showing interest! Quote I'm currently in the process of rewriting G2. PM me if interested.Feel free to follow the blog!

Eiji Hino Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 This actually sounds pretty nifty. As an aspiring world-builder and writer, I'd love to have some sort of major, shared project to work on in order to develop those skills. Rewriting G2 in order to enhance its lore and legends would be a great opportunity for that.Let's collab!

By the way, I'm digging the Fallout signature. Best of luck on this project. What kinds of roles do you actually want people to help you with?Thank you, and to answer your question, anyone who is interested in pitching in with anything. I'm doing this project alone as we speak, and I'm a little too ambitious for it. Editors, MOCcers, storyboard people, anyone at all. I have too many ideas and too little time, and I really think this could bring the community together a little more. So really, if you have something in mind you want to help out with, just message me. I'm not an Overseer, but I want to make sure everything fits into place.
