Bziii: Seven Heavenly Virtues


Franco

4,923 views

Member TX Wade has posted his idea to create a toa team with members based on the Seven Heavenly Virtues that counters the Daedra. This is the entry in which to discuss said idea; therefore, I will update this one as pertinent to keep up with discussion.

 

First Day of Discussion:

 

It has been largely agreed upon that this team of Virtues should be more than just foils to the Daedra.

 

TX Wade stated that this group will have a twist of some sort. To quote Parugi of Congratulations: '...A reason for being'.

 

 

Members Hubert and Parugi have stated one or two of their characters may join. Parugi also put forth the idea that perhaps the virtuous toa team could be more out to protect the island in general as opposed to merely combatting the Daedra.

 

 

Member Benluke-116 proposed:

Perhaps the members could all be reluctant about becoming heroes? And making them fight more enemies then just the Toa Daedra would be an good idea.

Another random thought: How about having an member that's a Skakdi or a Vortixx? He/She would still use 'Toa' as a title.

TX has vocalized his support for the general idea of the first paragraph, but also expressed he feels that this team's members should not strive for heroism. He believes they should instead try to become 'guardians'.

 

Second Day of Discussion:

 

TX Wade and Parugi expressed their dislike for the second of Benluke's proposals. They believe that skakdi and vortixx have certain evil or more neutral stigmas and do not fit in a 'toa team'.

 

Toa Onarax and Zoma stated that they would like Humility and Patience, respectively. Meanwhile, Parugi specified that the character he has who may join the group could serve as either Temperance or Diligence.

 

TX stated that he will take whichever virtue is left. He added that he is currently leaning towards Charity and Kindness.

Maybe for my Temperance character, he could be a tad mentally unstable at the start. He'd have a bit of a temper, lack of self-control and restraint and he's noticed his faults himself so as a result, he decides to live outside of the village, away from society until he got better.

 

In short, you'd have to coax him into joining, giving him a way to master the virtue of temperance by joining.

 

Does that sound good?

That sounds good to me. And I think Patience might have a way to get him to join... and this is all fueled by the fact that patience suffers, at least at first, with greed.

 

But, that's only if Patience is the one to recruit them. (Which I'm hoping he is. XD)

Bam, you're recruiting. Have fun. It looks like we're waiting on the other folk to create their characters and have them decide a unique situation for the recruiter and his recruits to work with.

 

I'm currently off to make my own Toa. I think I'm going to make him a Toa of gravity with a Volitak.

Sweet. Time to upgrade Patience's profile, and plot out his plan of creating a moneymaking team of Heroes... which will grow into a true team of heroes over time.

 

Unless we all go insane and turn all the virtues to evil. XD (No, this is not a good idea!)

Wait, isn't Salvinn just floating around the Kumu Islets doing nothing with Cersei, Septimus and Anavel?

 

Anyway, even if you guys don't prefer it, I'll get one of my thirty planned characters, all of which are Matoran, to be Chastity. Maybe Number 10.

The reasons why this will be a Toa team has already been explained and so far, has outmatched every arguments from the other side. No offense but bringing a Matoran would be even worse for obvious reasons.

 

Now then, I'm finished my profile for my character.

This...is a problem. Jaliax and Durim are both Toa of water and both sport masks of growth. What a coincidence...

 

Here's how it's going to go: Zoma, Hubert, one of you is going to have to change in some form. Don't want to harsh on anyone's mellow but I'm not having two exact same Toa. You guys sort it out through pms and post the result here.

 

Hubert: a frying pan as a weapon...?

Link to comment

I suppose I can change if needed... but I'd really rather not... I'll completely have to rethink the character's backstory... I can change the mask, and maybe Hubert can change elements... if not, I'll have to rework his past.

So this is the team so far:

 

Zoma: Durim (Patience)

Parugi: Raehn (did I spell that right? Diligence)

Me: Vilok (Temperance. His profile's up)

Onarax: Kraeyn (Humility)

Here's a draft for Chastity. Completely different character.

 

Name: Quada (Chastity)

 

Species: Toa

 

Gender: Male

 

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral

 

Power(s): Elemental Power of Magnetism

 

Mask: Kanohi Zatth, Great Mask of Summoning

 

Weapon(s): Warhammer

 

Appearance: Quada appears to an average Toa of Magnetism, with black and gunmetal coloured armour. His torso is a gunmetal colour, while he has black limbs, which share a colour with his mask, which covers his golden eyes.

 

Personality: Quada is a rather eccentric being, a trait of his which is shown by his incredibly strange style of doing things. He likes being unpredictable, which is rather annoying for his friends and companions. He is also incredibly optimistic, cheerful and bouncy, which also irritate others at times. He has an obsession with fish, leading to his rather detailed knowledge of many species of it. He is also rather honest, rarely lying.

 

Biography: Quada was originally a normal fisherman in Ga-Koro, spending most of his time fishing for, well, fish and selling them to stores in order to gain funds. One day he ended up becoming a Toa, and he realised that he would be able to become a protector of all fish and Matoran everywhere, leading to him becoming Ga-Koro's resident crazy Toa.

 

Weaknesses: Quada will freeze sometimes in combat situations due to being rather inexperienced, and is also easily distracted by mentions of fish.

Hubert: Quada (Chastity, awaiting final work)

Me: Vilok (Temperance)

Zoma: Durim (Patience)

Parugi: Raehn (Diligence)

Onarax: Kraeyn (Humility)

 

BenLuke and Biobeast, don't take too long to make your characters.

Link to comment

Well BioBeast has informed me that he will resign from the team, meaning charity's spot is currently open for applications.

 

Do note that the following elements have been taken: ice, iron, gravity, water and magnetism.

 

If more than one person takes interest in the charity position, we'll have to hold a vote.

Now, to make everything easier to keep track of...

 

Zoma - Patience

 

Onarax - Humility

 

Parugi - Diligence

 

Benluke - Kindness

 

Hubert - Chastity

 

TX Wade - Temperance

 

______ - Charity

 

 

Elements used:

Ice

Gravity

Iron

Water

Magnetism

 

 

Hubert: Quada (Chastity, awaiting final work)

Wade: Vilok (Temperance)

Zoma: Durim (Patience)

Parugi: Raehn (Diligence)

Onarax: Kraeyn (Humility)

You want kindness...oh boy...BenLuke wants kindness but he hasn't exactly posted his profile up yet...

 

Charity's an open spot so you could have that one but if you're bent on having kindness, it looks like you two are going to have to compete for it...

 

If that's the case well, I wish good luck to the both of you.

Name: Yasashiv

Race: Toa

Element: Electricity

Gender: Female

Mask: Mask of Healing

Appearance:

Yasashiv wears light grey armor with a few blue outlines. The armor has a new appearance and shines greatly; the Toa not being one fond of battles.

Yasashiv's overall appearance is very beautiful, but she doesn't care for making sure she looks her best. It's her soul that she cares for the most, and it shows with every move she makes.

Personality:

The Toa of Electricity is extremely kind and helpful; always there for her brothers and sisters. She never gets upset or angry and is always ready to help.

Weapon(s):

Even though she doesn't believe in fighting, she does believe in self defense. The Toa carries a medium sized sword sheathed at her left hip.

Fighting Style:

Yasashiv's fighting style is focused on defense mainly with her firing a few bolts of lightning while parrying melee attacks. Her main weakness is being over powered by fast attacks or any massive attack. She also just isn't that good in combat.

Bio:

Yasashiv (age seventeen) was born on the island of Mata-Nui where she lived with her elderly parents and learned the ways of peace and kindness. She soon gained the title Kindness as she lived in solitude with her parents.

After their deaths, she left the icy mountains of Ko-Wahi and met up with a Toa team focused on good "Karma" if you will. She is always at peace with herself and the world as well as kind, but the deaths of her parents still upset her greatly.

 

 

Here's Kindness's profile, but if BenLuke takes it, I can make Charity.
