Wow, that is awesome news GregF, So another team of Toa, even Magnitisme, that is really cool and awesome. BTW if antother toa team used it, then the question remains for what?? I am also wondering, for whom was the mask used and if Axonn and Brutaka know of it. Maybe the use of the mask of Life was the cause of Voya Nui's current state!

Nice tidbit, Greg, thanks! Will this in any way be mentioned in the books/comics, or is it a BZP-exclusive, like the Fohrok? Also, I thought I remembered it being stated somewhere that there had never been Toa on Voya Nui - Or was it that the DoomToran had never seen any?
Interesting... -Ikk -------------------- kthxbai |

Sweet. I'm gonna love the theories this'll make. Man, they coulda used his help. I was wondering, though, didn't you say it never left that chamber? Or did they use it in the chamber? And against what? The AE? And is this going to be mentioned next year? Yeah, that sounds like your average GregF PM.

Ikki -- it is mentioned in BL #6 next year. And you are correct, there have never been Toa stationed as guardians of Voya Nui and the local Matoran have never seen any. But these Toa journeyed to get the mask from elsewhere, back before Voya Nui was separated from its continent, and via means that ensured no Matoran ever saw them. Those means are no longer available post-cataclysm.

Nice info. Looks like their might be a team of toa with the Kal powers. This also makes the Inika seem slightly less special
 .Since you're here, would there be a Toa of Vacuums or Toa of Acid on that team? And does the Magnetism Toa have control over just magnetism or control over metalic protodermis as well? Thanks. This post has been edited by The Infection: May 29 2006, 01:51 PM |

It's actually mentioned in BL #5 that the mask has only been removed from its pedestal once in 100,000 years, and after it was used, it was returned hurriedly because the demonstration of its power had scared the blazes out of the ones who had removed it.

I was expecting a toa of magnetism to come up in the future. Oh well........
Still cool. A turaga of magnetism sounds really cool, especially as a turaga of voya-nui. I want more on this other toa, the leader of the only other team to get to the mask. He is interesting, but where would his fellow turaga be? -------------------- 0.0

So that's when it was removed! You mentioned something before about the Kanohi Ignika only being removed from it's current location once before. Is this that very time?
Either way... A Toa of Magnetism and a Toa team who actually got the Mask of Life without anything bad happening (Or did it?) and then actually using... Just wow. So our friends the Toa Inika aren't the first Toa to ever get to it. I hope we can learn more about this Toa (Then Turaga, now dead) and his team in the future. -------------------- WE ARE!...

I think you probably will, ET -- I kind of like the idea of sort of weaving their story into the 2007 (and hopefully 2008) books as sort of a thread. To answer, yes, that was the one time it was removed -- and no, not all the Toa involved survived the experience and what followed.

Toa of Magnetism. Sweet. Hopefully we'll see more Toa that use the Bohrak-Kal's power. Those were the coolest, IMO. Thanks for the info, Greg! --------------------  Danger zone! |

Magnetism makes sense...since then he wouldn't actually have had to touch it, he could have suspended it in a magnetic field in front of him.
Can't wait to learn more about him and his team, and if they have any link to krakua or the toas of sonics and gravity mentioned so far. |

mmm,our first Turaga(that we know) that isn't a basic(6) element and multiple Toa groups have tried to reach the Ignika,but 1 team succeeded...hmmm ofcourse you couldn't tell how large that team was,only 6,or 20 darn,this only gives me more questions.
