The one-hundred-forty-sixth article proposed by Em-Oh-Cee-Ehr is as follows:

Em-Oh-Cee-Ehr hereby proposes that within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe" there existed the "Detark Nui Great Library" (DEH-tahrk NOO-ee GREYT LIGH-breh-ree) on the southern portion of the Isle of Detark Nui that was accessible to all inhabitants prior to the island vanishing. It held information about virtually everything, from historical events to Rahi guides. It was a vital spot for the island's Ko-Matoran due to its' vast content on Physics.

 

With the Detark Nui Grand Library lost, a new one was erected on the Island City of Metru Nui 2,000 Y.B.G.C., however it too was destroyed ten months prior to the Great Cataclysm, raising suspicion as to Teridax's involvement from various corners of the Matoran Universe.

 

Now, feel free to discuss this proposal in this thread and then vote.

 

All in favor vote "AYE".

 

All opposed vote "NAY".

The one-hundred-forty-seventh article proposed by Makar is as follows:

Makar hereby proposes that within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe", until such time as Canon names are revealed, the First Toa Team shall henceforth be identified as the "Toa Levikk" (TOH-uh LEH-vick) with membership as follows:Lesovikk (LESS-oh-vick), Toa of AirNikila (nih-KEE-lah), Toa of LightningNix (NICKS), Toa of GravityTyru (TIGH-roo), Toa of StoneDezil (DEH-zihl), Toa of SonicsPyril (PIGH-rihl), Toa of FireLakous (laa-KOH-uhs), Toa of WaterOrzink (OHRZ-ihnk), Toa of IronFurthermore, unknown to Lesovikk, although Nix was brutally injured and rendered unconscious, he did in fact survive the Zyglak's assault that killed the rest of their team.

 

Now, feel free to discuss this proposal in this thread and then vote.

 

All in favor vote "AYE".

 

All opposed vote "NAY".

The one-hundred-forty-eighth article proposed by Talvak is as follows:

Talvak hereby proposes that within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe" there exists a form of Liquid Protodermis known as Ethanum (eth-ANN-uhm), which is renowned for its' intoxicating effect on whoever absorbs it. In most places, Turaga prohibit its' consumption by their Matoran, and many frown upon its' use. Despite these restrictions, high trade areas like Stelt, Xia, and Kamas Nui have been known to supply Ethanum to other parts of the Matoran Universe. The most common form of Ethanum is known as Ambrosil (am-BRO-sihl), named for its' deep, amber-like color.

 

Now, feel free to discuss this proposal in this thread and then vote.

 

All in favor vote "AYE".

 

All opposed vote "NAY".

The one-hundred-forty-ninth article proposed by Cap'n K is as follows:

Cap'n K hereby proposes that within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe" there exist objects known as "Kano" (KAH-noh), which are much like Kanohi in the sense that they are masks themselves, but their powers are constantly active and they can be used by all sapient species.

 

Kano however do not provide sustenance powers to the various species like Kanohi do, and are thus not considered a reliable substitute. A Toa, or other being dependent upon Kanohi, that was wearing a Kano instead, would still feel weak and dizzy, a Turaga wearing a Kano would still suffer extreme weakness, and a Matoran wearing a Kano would still lapse into a coma-like state if their Kanohi mask were not replaced within an certain period of time.

 

An example of a few popular Kano are one that exhibits the power of "Heat Resistance", allowing the user to be more tolerant of high-ranging temperatures, and one that holds the power of "Warning", alerting the user of approaching danger.

 

Now, feel free to discuss this proposal in this thread and then vote.

 

All in favor vote "AYE".

 

All opposed vote "NAY".

The one-hundred-fiftieth article proposed by Cap'n K is as follows:

Cap'n K hereby proposes that within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe" there exists a substance called "Kanoha" (kah-NOH-hah), which is very much like Kanoka in the respect that they both hold individual powers, and can both be smelted with Protodermis to form Powerless, Noble, and Great Kanohi, as well as other empowered objects.

 

Kanoha can be found in many locations, including but not limited to "The Southern Islets" within the Dome of the Southern Continent. The substance is characterized by a weak bluish-green glow, and forms when non-sentient things that are destined to become Kanoha are exposed to Energized Protodermis.

 

The various power levels of Kanoha are as follows:

• Level 1 ~ These samples of Kanoha are the most common and can be found in rocks, minerals, metals, and other types of Solid Protodermis. Smelting these into Kanohi can form Powerless Matoran masks.
• Level 2 ~ These samples of Kanoha are uncommon and can be found in plants and sometimes rocks, minerals, metals, and other types of Solid Protodermis. Smelting these into Kanohi can form Noble masks.
• Level 3 ~ These samples of Kanoha are very rare and can be found mainly in elusive and dangerous sources like lava, though rarely in plants, rocks, minerals, metals, and other types of Solid Protodermis. Smelting these into Kanohi can form Great masks.

The various types of Kanoha are as follows:

• Diminishment
• Levitation
• Poison Removal
• Regeneration
• Speed
• Stealth
• Telekinesis

It is also known that new powers can likely be obtained from the seven primary Kanoha by smelting various types together, thus leading to a wide variety of possible Kanohi from mixed samples as well.

 

Now, feel free to discuss this proposal in this thread and then vote.

 

All in favor vote "AYE".

 

All opposed vote "NAY".

The one-hundred-fifty-first article proposed by Talvak is as follows:

Talvak hereby proposes that within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe" there exists a form of Crystalline Protodermis known as "Sonic Crystals" (SAHN-ihk KRIS-tls), which are often utilized as a means of communication between Matoran. All Sonic Crystals vibrate at different frequencies. When two or more vibrate at the same frequency, they are then able to absorb, broadcast, and emit sound waves between them. To synchronize the crystals, they must first come into physical contact with one another at the same time, though some beings have created devices to bypass this step. It is best to avoid bringing two synced crystals too close together after the initial synchronization, as this could cause feedback and destroy the crystals.

 

Now, feel free to discuss this proposal in this thread and then vote.

 

All in favor vote "AYE".

 

All opposed vote "NAY".

The one-hundred-fifty-second article proposed by Talvak is as follows:

Talvak hereby proposes that within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe" there exists a type of device known as "Sonic Mufflers" (SAHN-ihk MUHF-lers), which were invented by a Nynrah Ghost during his time on the Isle of Kamas Nui. These devices can be worn over an individual's audio receptors or integrated into their armor to dampen sound waves. The Sonic Mufflers are most often used by De-Matoran to allow them to engage more readily in society without damaging their enhanced hearing.

 

Now, feel free to discuss this proposal in this thread and then vote.

 

All in favor vote "AYE".

 

All opposed vote "NAY".

And with that said, I open this thread up for discussion on the various articles for the proposed enhancement of our group structure and joint storyline.

Please be sure to vote on all twelve articles in this thread.

Also, note that this discussion and the corresponding voting will end at 1200 PST (Noon in the Pacific Time Zone) on Monday, October 5th, 2009 provided that all of the newly nominated C.I.R.C.L.E. members and at least 2/3 of existing C.I.R.C.L.E. members have voted at that point.

Lastly, as usual the C.I.R.C.L.E. members will be notified of the results via the C.I.R.C.L.E. Results Overview & Discussion thread, meanwhile communication concerning future voting threads will happen via PM.

Thanks.
