Here we are. Day 7. --- IT'S HERE! CLICK THE BANNER BELOW (OR THIS LINK) TO READ THE PROLOGUE OF OBLIVION. --- I hope you all enjoy it! Chapter 1 releases next week!
DAY 6... --- The guest you never invited. SVENTOLA "The Agori" Created by Ehks An eccentric Agori from the Jungle Tribe that fought against the Reformation years ago. When his side lost the war, Sventola vanished into the wilderness with his bow and arrow, and in the years since has rarely stayed in one location for long. Thanks to his exploration of the Bota-Magna jungles, he is often hired to guide those less informed through the dangerous terrain; unbeknownst to
DAY FIVE! --- --- Don't you have a city to run? MARAKO "The Mayor" Created by Chip Biscuit After the Reformation, Marako was one of those who took advantage of the chaos and manipulated it to his own ends. He took a political charge, playing through several gambits that all paid off. He made many enemies in the process... but they did land him the seat as New Atero's Mayor, a role that he has played for the past twenty years. It is a position that should
Time for Day 4. --- Do you remember? SMOKE MONSTER "The Mask Maker" Created by Toa Smoke Monster Nobody knows this Matoran's true name - not even himself. All that he has to go by is the nickname granted to him by those who would become his closest friends long ago, when they were all thought dead to the world. He helped them to fight a war against an enemy thought unbeatable; he helped them to win. But nobody remembers that war. After the Reformation, S
And now it's time for DAY 3! --- Tough love. SIRIEN "The Snarker" Created by Inferna Firesword Some people would tell you that the Ce-Matoran named Sirien is rude. Sirien would helpfully inform you that those people are wrong. Having worked as a weapons supplier during both the Destiny War and the Reformation War, Sirien has learned how to negotiate with everything from her fellow Matoran to beings as powerful as (and sometimes more powerful than) the Ma
Here we are! Day 2 of OBLIVION! --- What's a BZP Story without BZP characters? BRONZE "The Living Mask" Created by BronzeJet Kanohi Kakama Every mad being needs a companion, and for the Mad Great Being Araina, that companion is the Ta-Matoran that she has named Bronze. Formerly an ordinary bronze Kanohi Kakama, Bronze was given life after being picked up by Araina ten years ago. With a living Kanohi Mask in her hands that she did not wish to carry, Araina construct
As promised to a few of you, here is the official announcement of ... Due to a set of unfortunate circumstances (that may have perhaps been unavoidable, since we are online), I was hired on to keep on giving after BZPower's Secret Santa (protip: we should make sure the staff turn it into an annual thing). Of course, there was only one route to take - write an epic! This particular epic will star a select cast of characters created in part by certain BZPower members. Gathered togethe
and go read (and follow) Soran's The Road to Home. It is going to be a fantastic CYOA Comic and is a brilliant idea. Jealous that I did not think of the idea first (even though I don't have the artistic skills to make a comic on my own anyway) Seriously though go read it and follow.
2015 is so this year It's time we started looking to the future! - 2016 is so this year It's time we really started looking to the future! (that moment when you make the same joke 2 years in a row) (that moment when you re-use an old blog entry)
Usually when I write up the list of my favorite films of the year, I list a total of ten films. This can be seen with my lists for 2014, 2013 Half-Year, and 2012 (& Revisited). I shortened it to five films for 2015 because despite enjoying many movies this year (and there were a few very good highlights such as Mad Max and Kingsman), I also found there to be just as many disappointments. As such, here they are are. 1. AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON ---> Everything about this movie is terribl
Earlier this year: 1st Name Change: Lucina 2nd Name Change: N/A because I haven't changed my display name since So only one name change in 2015, compared to: -8 in 2014 (9 if you count a modification to one by staff) -7 in 2013 (8 if you count staff switching me back to a name after a small data loss) -7 in 2012 -4 in 2011 -2 in 2010 -1 in 2009 (this is the name I've held onto the longest, and is the record I intend to break) It's been 11 months. About 5 more to go, and then we'll see what
It's that time of year again; time for the list where I mention my favorite movies out of the ones I saw this year. As always, I did not manage to see every movie; I will be seeing "The Hateful Eight" by the end of the first week of January, and plan to see "The Revenant", "Joy", and "The Good Dinosaur" if opportunity allows. Others ("Peanuts", "Ex Machina", "Sicario", and a few others I was interested in but missed) will most likely have to wait until 2016, when I can catch them on Netflix or

Saw an early morning showing for it on the 18th. I enjoyed it very, very much. I won't spoil anything, but I will say that I was quite impressed with both Rey & Finn. e: BTW my mission to see the film without coming across any spoilers was a complete success and I definitely enjoyed it more as a result fwiw RIP Lando though. His absence from the film is somewhat odd; I haven't read any of the tie-in materials, so I dunno if he's supposed to have died before the movie takes place or som
