Full Version: The Fourth State Of Matter And Pahrak-kal

Many poeple are confused at what PLASMA is, so i will explain.
We all know what the three states of MATTER are (LIQUID,SOLID
and GAS), but there is a fourth, it is called PLASMA, yes the very
same power chosen for Pahrak-Kal, but there are many more definitions
such as:


Dr. Charles Richard Drew (June 3, 1904 - April 1, 1950) was an American medical doctor and surgeon who started the idea of a blood bank and a system for the long-term preservation of blood PLASMA (he found that PLASMA kept longer than whole blood). His ideas revolutionized the medical profession and have saved many, many lives.

CORONAL MASS EJECTION-
Coronal mass ejections (abbreviated CME's) are huge, balloon-shaped plasma bursts that come from the Sun. As these bursts of solar wind rise above the Sun's corona, they move along the Sun's magnetic field lines and increase in temperature up to tens of millions of degrees. These bursts release up to 220 billion pounds (100 billion kg) of PLASMA. CME's can disrupt Earth's satellites. CME's usually happen independently, but are sometimes associated with solar flares.

PLASMA MEMBRANE -
A permeable membrane located within the cell wall. It serves many functions for the cell, including energy generation and transport of chemicals.


And last but most important:

PLASMA:
A PLASMA is a gas that is composed of free-floating ions (atoms stripped of some electrons - positively charged) and free electrons (negatively charges). A PLASMA conducts electrical currents.


So my favorote Bohrok-Kal has an amazing element!cool.gif
Toa Vakama
pahrak-kal is my fave kal now, cos of his elemental power. ill bye him first
Yuna~Hibiscus
I liked the Stone themed characters anyway, but PLASMA
is a cool power to have... But do not mistake it as an Ele-
ment, it is a State Of Matter.

which kal has which power i know they are plasma vacumn electricity gravity magnetism and sound but which kal gets which it would help and i know about the plasma thing toowe are learning about it in science
Toa Vakama
i know its not an element, but non of the powers are, unless u include greek elements(which were wrong)
Monolyth
I did not know that, thanks for the info. I'm going to buy two of them. One for show and the other for parts.

Nuhvok-kal = Gravity
Tahnok-kal = Electricity
Pahrak-kal = Plasma
Kohrak-kal = Sonics (Sound)
Lehvak-kal = Vacuum
Gahlok-kal = Magnetism

ohmy.gif eather im cnfused or im stupid(i'll take confused but im not sure thats right).where you get the borok-kal powers


off topic: whats proto power

when can you give me a link

I thought that fire was an example of the element plasma, but I could be wrong...

Well you could say that LIGHTNING was a form of PLASMA because
PLASMA is super charged IONS and so is LIGHTNING.
Mac the Matoran
Hmmm... that kinda blurs the line between the powers of electricity and plasma, doesn't it?

Sorry but Vaccum cannot be an element, here is a Dictionary definition, "A space entirely empty of matter." so it is not possible for a Kal's element to be Vaccum.
Rahi Zaku
Heh, I knew about Plasma being the fourth state of matter already, but thanks for posting! biggrin.gif It'll clear up a lot of confusion!

I think it's kind of interesting how instead of elemental powers, the Kal seem to have Physics-related powers...

Pardon... I never said it was an element, but it is Lehvak-Kal's
power.

Ok it's immpossible for anything to use a vacuum as a power. glare.gif
SpaceGodzilla
From hte beginning i thought it was this way:

Nuvhok Kal:Gravity
Pahrak Kal:Magnetism
Tahnok Kal:Electricity
Lehvak Kal:Sound
Kohrak Kal:Vaacum
Gahlok Kal:Plasma

technicly its impossible to have any of the powers. u can how ever create a vacuum(in real life)using speacialist equitment.basicly lehvak-kal would pressurise an area and then let all the matter out of it using his ability rather than a machine. it just makes it more exciting, i meen would u even of started liking bionicle if it was totally realistic and tahu, when facing makuta said,"wait a secend i know they're in here somewhere<looks in pocket for a while>here they are!<pulls out a packet of matches and lights one>come on then makuta!"
plus non of the powers are actual elements, they're just called that to make it mystic

Nuhvok-kal = Gravity
Tahnok-kal = Electricity
Pahrak-kal = Plasma
Kohrak-kal = Sonics (Sound)
Lehvak-kal = Vacuum
Gahlok-kal = Magnetism

I would say that Kohrak-Kal has the power of gravity. In comic 9, K-Kal makes Matoro fall down. He says, "Can't stand...! Can't get up...too heavy!"

I still don't know what a substance in the 'plasma' state would feel like. Could you provide examples of common substances that are plasmas at room temperature?

I think the Bohrok-Kal powers are looking a bit uneven. The other powers are things that I can imagine a Tohunga surviving to some degree, but I think it would be going a bit far to have a character change states of matter and live!

Nuhvok-kal = Gravity
Gravity can be altered by changing the Volume of the Planet.
Gravity is a factor which makes planets Oval or Round. The larger the Planet, the Heavyer the Gravity. Think; Egg + Hammer.

Tahnok-kal = Electricity
Think; Static elecricty, Times 10000000++.

Pahrak-kal = Plasma
A highly consentrated stream of electricty. Highly destructive, and can melt Titanium.

Kohrak-kal = Sonics (Sound)
Sounds are created by vibraton of objects. A highly tuned frequency, might even shatter dimonds.

Lehvak-kal = Vacuum
Vacuumes, are like Black Holes. If you can produce a Black Hole in Earth, You are the most powerful creature in the world. Or, you can just use a Vacuum Cleaner.

Gahlok-kal = Magnetism
As the civilisation of Mata-nui are Mechanical, A Single Maha can be Magnetised, and... Lets just say, Hope there's no Metalics nearby. Also, Electo-Magnetic Pulse. AKA, EMP. Capable of dissabling ANY elctronics.

Yes, fire is a plasma.

Some other examples of plama is that glass ball that looks like it has lightning in it. The "lighning" is plasma It's actually called a plasma ball.

Also scientists are trying to develop fusion power, and in the fusion power plant prototypes there is actually a very, very, very hot ring of plasma inside of it. If plasma's heat could be used to generate enormous amounts of electrcity, then it could be indeed a really powerful power.

Yes but GregF said that Nuhvok-Kal was with Kohrak-Kal
Toa Vakama
space is a vacuum, black holesm are gravity wells
SilverAkaku
You guys, vacuum CAN be a power. A kal could stink air out of it's enviroment, causing bad effects. Any way my theory is Kohrak Kal: gravity. We know so because of comic 9. Gahlok Kal: electricity. just a guess, but I'll bet it's either it or Lehvak Kal. Pahrak Kal: sound. It would be a very effective weapon there since it could start an avalanche with it. Lehvak Kal: vaccuum. Vacuum is inderectly related to air, and all the other green guys have been related to air.Tahnok Kal: plasma. another guess. Nuhvok Kal: magnetism, onlything left.
MS-14S Gelgoog
No, a vacuum is something with NOTHING in it! NO molocules! A deep void! A vacum cleaning has mater, so it is not a vacuum.
The Green Rabbit
In comic 9, it looked like Kohrak Kal was using gravity powers to hold down Matoro, but Greg F said that Nuhvok Kal was with him, using gravity powers.
