Geardirector Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Dasaka are Matoran-folk, they just don't know it. He's still talking about the same thing.

otter Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 You haven't yet realized that the Dasaka are just a separate culture from the Matoran, but in all biological respects are exactly the same? I would've sworn that was explicitly mentioned somewhere where it was describing them. Or was that just a few months ago when they came out? profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeper of Kraata Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 It's even specifically described in the Kentoku topic now: The Dasaka are the BZPRPG's Toa, Turaga, and Matoran of Psionics. They come from the Kentoku Archipelago, and as such their society and culture are very different from those of the Toa of Mata Nui. When it was revealed, I was fascinated with the relationship between the two cultures. The times, they are a-changing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makuta Miras Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 I know Dasaka, Dashi and Datsue are essentially just rebranded Toa, Matoran and Turaga, but my point was that if the higher-up's children are automatically high-up, and people in the lower castes don't have children (Most of the time) then where does each new generation of the members of lower castes come from? (It's like in Ocarina of Time where a male Gerudo is only born every 100 years or something.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeper of Kraata Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 (edited) Kentoku: offbrand Mata Nui-ans. I must phrase a question: how often have you seen someone die from old age in this? (I know there must be somebody I'm missing, but its still a rare occurence) Edited January 4, 2015 by Keeper of Kraata The times, they are a-changing...

otter Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 They're long lived enough that it doesn't matter anyways, man. And beyond that, y'never know. It could be like medieval cultures the world over. Little affairs can (and probably do) happen more than you'd think. As to the reveal of the Dasaka's nature as being just the Ce-Matoran, I thought that was when they were made available for the players, not some time after they came out/debuted/whatever word works so that some people don't misunderstand me. profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcarusBen Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 Oh. I thought it was a simile. Dasaka are like the Matoran/Toa/Turaga. Oops. But that raises the question of where did they come from? All we know is that they got there at the speed of plot.

Krayzikk Posted January 4, 2015 Share Posted January 4, 2015 We know exactly where they came from; you just don't yet. As to the question, they do die of old age. Not for a very long time but it does happen. As for why the lower classes stay consistent... Just because only higher ranks get to marry and have families doesn't mean reproduction doesn't happen. 4 On this eve, the thirtieth anniversary of that first colony, many are left to wonder; is the world fast approaching a breaking point?
