Remember that Okoto story I've mentioned? This is it, people. In an alternate version of the 2015 storyline where the Toa failed to save the island, YOU (the Protectors) must now save the island. ANNOUNCING... What I'm looking for is anyone interested in being a character in this story. This story will be standalone; no prior reading is required, and there will be no sequels. This shall be my final "major" writing project on BZPower, and I'd love it if all of you signed up to join the rid
Since so many of you graciously expressed your interest in being used as a character, I've decided to go ahead with it: an epic based on the Bionicle Mafia series of games. Yes, some of you will die in the story. I promise nothing with regards to personalities, or deaths, or really anything beyond using you as a character - but I do promise that there are only 6 spots left (all spots taken now). (yes i took a spot for me go away) Sign up in the comments if interested.
(Before any of you rag on me for copying Xccj, let it be known that I did it before him, and that many others did it before me ) That last entry about killer Vahki? Yeah, that has something to do with this. What I'm looking for is anyone interested in being a character in this story. This story will be standalone, so no prior reading of anything will be required. In order to sign up, just post in the comments with the following: Name: (Self-explanatory; I'd prefer your display name, or most
Update Jan. 15: Changed banner so that it links to the revised version. UPDATE JAN 17: Edited banner so that it links to new revised version! update january 18 - We've gone off to the official request topic! Read what is hopefully the final version of the RPG by clicking the updated banner link below! Update Jan 27: We have been approved! Stay tuned - we release in the next few days! Click that banner, and you'll be taken to the proposal post for my RPG project, which has been a very long
Gentlefolk of BZPower, it is my pleasure to announce... Distortion is an anthology of short stories starring YOU, BZPower members. 8 BZPower authors (possibly 9, maybe even 10!) will each be writing stories of varying length (anywhere from your standard SS to a mini epic) starring BZPower members. All of these stories will be published as a part of this anthology. For those of you that remember Extermination - Distortion takes place in the same universe. However, it is important to note that
It all began with Bionifight in 2007. Then came Bionifight 2: Madness Returns! in 2011, followed by Bionifight 3: Madness Returns Again! and Bionifight 4: Hyper Fighting, both also released in that same year. The first three, hosted by Fighty (with help from myself for the latter two) as well as the fourth, hosted just by me, are now referred to as "classic" Bionifight. In January of this year, Bionifight Ultimate was released. It was a game changer in every respect; Ultimate Weapons replaced
So some people said that they would be interested! And so here we are! Here's the deal: in the comments below, nominate up to three characters from any video game. If someone else has already nominated a character, you can second (or third or fourth or- well you get the point) their nomination instead, should you so choose. In a few days or whenever, a preliminary voting round will determine the "placement" of each character; we'll see if it's 16 or 32 characters when we get there. Don't f
Quick question for those who signed up: I'm writing all of the characters as Matoran (since that is what makes the most sense in this weird world I have created), and so I am here to ask you what element you would each like to be if you have any preferences.
Brought to you by Voltex and Burnmad. Click the picture for a larger version! And if you aren't picture inclined, I have of course done up a text version of the bracket for you all. Things are looking pretty easy for Samus and Link thus far if previous trends are any indication, but Luigi might be in for a rough time! As usual, you can vote for one character in each matchup. Also, fun fact: Count Bleck has ranked #8 in both "Best Ever" contests. #1 Samus (Metroid) vs. #32 Cyndaquil (Po
<---------> (notes are below the arrows at the bottom) <---------> Welcome to Okoto, an island divided into six regions: Fire, Water, Ice, Stone, Earth, and the central Ancient City. Each region is populated by Protectors of their respective element (barring the Ancient City, which holds a population mixed with Protectors from every region). The regions are officially united under the banner of the Mask Maker, who rules over Okoto from the Ancient City. Ten years ago, in the y
(Brought to you by Voltex and Burnmad) I said we'd do it again, and so we are! HOWEVER. This one has a theme, people of BZPower! And that theme is.... NINTENDO. That's right - for THE BEST EVER 2, only Nintendo Characters are allowed (do not worry this will not be for every future tournament). Now, as the final two of the previous tournament, Samus and Link are guaranteed the #1 and #2 positions respectively, meaning there are 30 more characters to be decided upon. In the comments of thi
Let's see how this works - I'm going to be gone for the next two weeks. You all get one vote for each day, but you have to alternate between at least two votes. Here we go - the names still in this are... every name that had more than one vote. iBrowser (3) iBrow (7) LEG BEAM LASERS (3) Grif (3) Mustache Cash Stash (5) Freelancer iBrow (2) Grandpa Joe (2) Votes from Round 1 will count towards the end. If someone could every now and then in the comments tally the Round 2 votes ONLY, that'd be
And so it begins! After smashing their way through the preliminary voting, characters such as Professor Layton, Robin, Fawful, Porky Minch, and Gordon Freeman all take part in Round 1, alongside many others! None of the matchups this round look too special; none of them seem, at first glance, to contain a character that stands a chance of utterly slamming their opponent (aside from perhaps Luigi, Samus, and GLaDOS). As usual, I have both a picture bracket AND a text bracket for you all - clic
Welcome to The Best Ever 3: Good vs. Evil! Inspired by the final two rounds of the previous tournament, the sides of light and darkness will go head to head in this third competition after Samus and Luigi won the first and second tournaments respectively. Here's how it's gonna work: 16 heroes, 16 villains. The final two will consist of the mightiest hero facing off against the strongest villain, to determine which side will achieve ultimate victory. As the winner and runner-up of the last tour
So as promised, I've decided to open up six player slots for BIONIFIGHT ULTIMATE early. All you need to do is fill out a profile and post it in the comments here; I will then either approve it (most likely) or ask you to modify something (unlikely). You'll automatically be given a spot on the list for the first three rounds, but I will ask that you copy/paste your profile into the game topic itself when the time gomes. There will still be 8-10 open slots available when the game releases. E
So back in January, I realize that I 100% dropped the ball on this one. But now that it's been about a year since the first one, I figured that we would try this again. The Best Ever 3: Good vs. Evil is officially live! Sixteen of the greatest heroes in video games, as well as sixteen of the greatest villains, shall go head-to-head with each other, vying for the "Best Ever" crown! As the winner and runner-up of Best Ever 2 respectively, Luigi and Hades are guaranteed the #1 spot in each c
Take the quiz here! Mine is Slytherin; no surprise there, it's what I get every time I take any of these quizzes. My percentages: Slytherin - 82% Gryffindor - 74% Ravenclaw - 54% Hufflepuff - 32% So what is your Hogwarts House?
This is gonna be tough to pull off - attempting to decide BZPower's favorite video game character and BZPower's favorite movies on the same blog. I'll make do. With the announcement of the nominees for the 86th Academy Awards, I figured, why not? We'll make some of our own! (If you'd like to help the Voltex Association with designing a trophy, please do so). This is going to be voted on entirely by you guys (and me because I am one of you) - so here's the deal. First, we need nominations
So some of you might be aware that awhile back, I asked for members to signup as characters for an epic. Well, we're entering the home stretch of that epic, and yes, I am going to write a sequel. That said, to plan the sequel properly, I need to know what characters I'm working with. For those of you that were characters in the first epic, do not sign up - the survivors will be in Book 2 (minus one, for reasons that will be explained later), and those who are dead will be staying dead... for n
If you signed up in the previous entry, please check over this list to make sure that I did not miss you. Updated to include Xaeraz and Burnmad. Re-updated because I forgot RG. Updated again to fix Flaredrick. Updated again to include short bios. 1 – Makuta Luroka - Fa-Matoran; From the Tren Krom Peninsula area; origins unknown. 2 – Ehks - Fa-Matoran; From far down south, and a former Bionifighter. 3 – JiMing - Ta-Matoran; Once a huge fan of Voltex, after he retired JiMing entered the Bionifi
The following characters have been guaranteed entry: #1- Samus (Metroid) #2- Okabe Rintaro (Steins;Gate) #3- Elma (Xenoblade) #4- Lucina (Fire Emblem) #5- Papyrus (Undertale) #6- Morrigan (Dragon Age) #7- Professor Layton (Professor Layton) #8- Mario (Super Mario) These leaves us with 36 characters, of whom only 16 will get to advance into the voting proper, rounding out the roster at 24. You get three votes to assign as you like; divide them up or pile them on! Here are the remaining char
