BZPower's Bara Magna

[Bonkle]

Can we all just stop trying to commit genocide in a Jungle faction I'm atleast one of these games. Why not push Tuma back into Roxtus and unite the shards there?

Nah man, I'm already on my way to Tesara. Don't make me buy an atlas so I can find out where Roxtus is.

[Burnmad]

 

I feel like most people in the wastes would be enthusiastic towards snuffing out the Bone Hunter Stronghold

 

I still feel like Tesara is the best place though

 

...Though, I would still think Tesara is the best place if we killed every Skrall there

 

-

What Stronghold?

 

 

...Is that not in this game?

Just follow the swathe of death and destruction carved across the landscape by Tuma's troops.

That would just loop me back to Tajun and then Atero.

[Trijhak]

Bone Hunter Stronghold may have been in this game at one point, but we're in far too deep now to add anything. And far too close to the end.

 

And well, the Mask of Life... its shards get ever closer.

To my knowledge, no. The Bone Hunters have been described in almost every interaction a player has had with them as Nomadic and scattered. It's why the Tesaran and Vulcanus shards were able to be stolen at roughly the same time, as it was two different tribes. That's not to say they can't be brought together as seen with Atero, but primarily they are nomadic tribes.

Besides myself, how many other Iron Agori might be out there, wandering the wastes?

[Trijhak]

Too many

 

Very rare, but not extinct

Episode Eight has ended!

 

BZPBM: The Lab may continue, however, until it reaches the stopping point.

[The Hip Historian Iaredios]

I didn't get to say my magic word. Had it written out and everything.

 

 

 

 

Again, this is implying I'll give you the final shard.

I honestly don't have any idea what I've done to make you distrust me so much that you'd willfully stop us from completing the one thing that is guaranteed to save Bara-Magna from the Skrall.

Eh, we'll see who gets to Tuma first.

RL nomads have pit stops, camps, and trading outposts that sometimes develop into towns and in some cases even cities, though they would be have population influxes depending on winter and summer in order to follow herds and game. Great examples are settlements (like Samarkand and Tashkent) that grew because of its location on the Silk Road despite land around it being inhabited by nomadic hunters, herders, and raiders. (The Crusader Kings 2 expansion Horse Lords informed me more on this). These settlements, like the Bone Hunter Stronghold, could be old relics from ancient trans-regional trade before the Bone Hunters became powerful, took them over, and cut off the Skrall River region from other pockets of civilization across Bara Magna, they possibly having different cultures, maybe even more agoric sub-races (like the Skrall or Vorox).

 

If you guys or anyone else that wants to make a potential Bara Magna S2 want to use this idea and would prefer actual names, I have some.

Tzais-Kuluu - Stronghold

Khot-Khad - Gatherer's Ridge (settlement/camp)

Zar-Daguu - Black Falls (camp)

Oh, this gives me any idea.

 

Also Terrorsaur do you have a elite Skrall kill counter?

I'd make one if I had a computer with Internet.

[Voltex]

FML now all of Tesara can see me

[Toru Nui]

I wasn't aware you owned a lighthouse.

[The Hip Historian Iaredios]

New Grunkharist pic.

 

[Voltex]

It's more of a bat signal

[Trijhak]

Tesara sure will get crowded between the 11 players that will be there during episode 9

 

Meanwhile, Onaku has dream adventures while Pahrak sits in prison for something he had no control over, Burnmad sits in Vulcanus and keeps saying 'no' to Pahrak's appeals, and RG recovers in Iconox playing music.

 

While Manducus, Flaredrick, Jed, Underscore, Luroka and (sort of) ToaD rest in peace and cast off their waking prisons to strengthen the Great Dreamer except Luroka , whose fate is used to scare small Agori into not betraying their friends

[Nato G]

I now understand why this game might be ending with Episode 9. 

[Voltex]

11 people in one place?

 

good grief

[ToaTImeLord]

Thanks Terrorsaur.

Tesara is the number one vacation spot on Bara Magna according to Tripadvisor. Edited September 4, 2017 by Chief TimeLord of Tesara

[Nato G]

This isn't a vacation. It's an invasion. 

[FrozenFlash]

Jungles don't just attract fires and wars. Apparently, they also attract people into joining their madness.

I'm just glad I won't be in my town if/when it blows up.

[ToaTImeLord]

I kinda want the game to end before the 10th because that's when I'll have to evacuate from Hurricane Irma.

I feel like the game itself might be over by then but the episode probably won't be up yet.

 

Good luck though, assuming nothing changes before then.

[Trijhak]

Over by the 10th? Perhaps if Episode 9 goes by fast, which it likely will because of one now inevitable big action that is extremely close to happening. And if Episode 8 is posted in the next three days, which it might be but might not.

 

Episode Eight Sneak Peek

Onaku sat down on the floor, opposite a strange Rock Agori - a strange Rock Agori who seemed to be not quite there and speaking about dreams, something that seemingly had only happened after Toru had been imprisoned. This Rock Agori had two strong-willed guards on either side of them in case something strange happened. Hopefully, something strange wouldn’t happen.

“What is the dream?” Onaku asked, curious as to why such a fascination with dreams had emerged.

“Dreams are blessings.” The Rock Agori stated, no emotion, no movement from their face but that of their mouth.

“What is your name?” Onaku asked.

“Your name is Onaku.”

[Nato G]

Spread the dream.

[The Hip Historian Iaredios]

When this is all done and with whoever survives,  after initial funeral rites Hyethut will be throwing a nigh-shamanist celebration including a fire-pit to dance around and the inhalation of sacred flowers in order to become detached to the Waking World and become closer with Grunkhar, the Etherealm, and the honorable dead who dwell there with the ahura-kin. Lavender and Frankincense for all, and party at Tesara's central market square! (be sure to bring snacks!)

 

 

 

...has anyone been attacked by a vorox in this game so far?

Does the Fire Tribe legally own all fire now?

Well we could build a ziggeraut in the middle of Tesara to mend the two villages by religion (an artificial mountain-tower to be used by priests to be closer to the heavens and better read the night sky, and also look down upon everyone else in superiority), but i doubt Hyethut's heirs will be more cautious of theocratic overthrow and rather welcome such tyranny. Funky smelling fire-pits and sacred mountain pilgrimages will do fine, but the center really needs to be developed so that the two villages will become one city.

I'm sorry did you grow that salad your eatting?

No.

Then shush.

I wonder if the Fire Agori know that volcanic soil is incredibly fertile...

Sahmad and I were in... Episode 3 or 4, after we recovered the Atero shard and killed a Skrall.

I'm baaaaack! What'd I miss?

There's another fire.

Also me and Hyethut are creating Mahri Nui.
