Toatapio Nuva Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Is it possible to customize Skakdi vision powers? The Profile topic doesn't mention this.

EmperorWhenua Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Yes, but you need staff approval for the power. BZPRPG Profiles / Critical Acclaim / Complaints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geardirector Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 One notable example of customized vision power is Stralix's Diagnostics Vision: His ocular power is Diagnostics Vision, which allows him to inspect objects, revealing their inner workings and highlighting damage. It superimposes a hologram-like heads-up display over his vision. It cannot, however, teach him how technology works if it relies on principles he does not already know about (i.e. he can't use it to replicate foreign or restricted tech unless I have staff permission).

Tabby: Toa of Cats Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Another example would be Bijackal's Tracking Vision, which is essentially an energy hound's power given optical form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. House Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I'm this close to making my own Desaka character to mix things up by shouting about war and such. Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close.

Geardirector Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Is there a limit to how many Zamor Spheres a character can have? I noticed Grokk for example wields two types.

EmperorWhenua Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 (edited) This is generally because the means for transformation is not made readily available to players. Toa stones are staff-granted gifts and rewards, toa-turaga transformations are all but restricted because they can make toa/toa stones and the Red Star has a different role in the game than a cosmic... destiny warping spaceship or whatever it was meant to be in the canon. Transformations can occur, just not without consent.

Geardirector Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 I was well aware of this, so I was asking to find out whether anyone managed to play a Matoran character that well. Also I spoke to Nuju about Toa->Turaga transformations some time ago. He said that as long as the resulting Toa Stone is only used with staff permission, the actual transformation is pretty lenient.

Snelly Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The thing is, most players here have more Toa than any other type of character in the rpg.

Toatapio Nuva Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Have strength, Kughii! As for the mysteries of the BZPRPG, I seriously doubt they are all individual occurences. I think Antidermis is what replaced Makuta when the Hiripaki was used and that the Piraka will actually have a big role in the opening of the vault. Since the Dasaka and the Piraka are already obviously connected, I think it's safe to assume that the connection will come to play with the vault. Probably the Kentoku Archipelago also has the "key" to the vault, though we don't know what it is yet. As for the Abettor... no idea.

Observedhalo Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Who else thinks the Fursic are going to take advantage of an Empire divided and stage some grand plan to oust Clan Umbraline from power? Or maybe assassinate the Rora Dishonored style? To be Honest, I just want the Fursic's to have a competent plot going on during this new arch. Vox, what about a "Gman" so to say? So, who's Freeman?
