Onaku Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 Huh, looks like I missed minuscule drama regarding my precious Tiokaha a short while ago. Interesting... Anyway, I've been a bit (actually very) busy lately, so my apologies to those who are waiting on a post from me. In the favour of convenience and quickness, a pm to me if you're waiting on me would be appreciated. BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior Shark Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 So what are some examples of native and foreign technology? If you wait until the last minute, then it only takes one minute. Flickr BZPRPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvan Haven Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Hmmmm, think early Renaissance for native tech, minus the guns. Foreign tech can range from a really shiny sword to a Star Wars blaster. Pretty much anything you can come up with that does not break the game. "I serve the weak. I serve the helpless. I am their sword and their shield. If you want to strike at them, you must go through me, and I am not so easily moved." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeper of Kraata Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 With some scattered examples, as the highest points, of 'stuff conceptualized in the Renaissance but not actually made'. Like the Iron Mahi. There's also stuff like the Exo-Matoran, which is rather a revamp of the Boxer from canon. The times, they are a-changing...

Silvan Haven Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Both the Iron Mahi and Exo-Matoran are from Onu-koro. The only thing a normal person could get from that toybox are the Istone tablet computers. "I serve the weak. I serve the helpless. I am their sword and their shield.

SnowyAegis Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Firearms aren't a thing outside of foreign tech, but what about crossbows?Unless I'm completely misunderstanding, if native tech is Renaissance minus the shootbangs, crossbows should be a known thing.

Wade. Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Thanks for the responses! Are Zamor launchers off-limits? They're considered foreign tech, so they're only accessible to Skakdi, Vortixx or Lesterin. However, pieces of foreign tech can be snagged off another player's character but only with their express permission. BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krayzikk Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Zamor launchers are off-limits for native characters. Pieces of foreign tech can be taken only through staff reward or combat.

Junior Shark Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 So does the BZPRPG adhere to the canon gender divisions among elements? I.E. all Ga-Matoran are female, all Vortixx are female, all Po-Matoran male, etc. If you wait until the last minute, then it only takes one minute. Flickr BZPRPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeper of Kraata Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 We don't, with the notable exception of the Dasaka. In the BZPRPG, any matoran of any element may be any gender. It has been implied that while the different types of matoran are weighted toward one or the other, there's enough... 'mixing' to offset those. Dasaka, on the other hand, our equivalent (read: pretty much exactly the same but with different culture and power classifications) of Ce-Matoran have a strict 40:1 ratio, weighted towards female. Also, there were male vortixx in canon. They were just... oppressed. The times, they are a-changing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
