It seems everyone but me in the Pokémon RPG over in COT has characters with complete teams. I am feeling sad and lonely out of the fringes of underpowered teams. So here I will post my current teams and ask for advice because I am not sure how to complete them. TEAM #1 Leader: Lorelei - human - Temperamental, intimidating, forceful. Chrys - Rapidash - Competitive, similar to his trainer. Lotus - Flaaffy - She had a fall when she was a baby and has never been the same since. A little loopy. Hydra - Floatzel - Attention grabbing and needy. Clever but obnoxious. Carnage - Kirlia - Self conscious. Tries to over correct the feminine Kirlia image and ends up making himself look foolish. Snapdragon - Archen - Rash, often gets himself into sticky situations and relies on others to help him out. WHO TAKES THE LAST SLOT? TEAM #2 Leader: Troy - human - Charming, likable, but he lies a lot and isn't always the most reliable guy. Lazarus - Tauros - Solid, dependable. He has high moral standards and doesn't always agree with the things his trainer does. Rebecca - Toxicroak - Completely insane. And I don't mean that in the way most BZPers describe themselves. Violent, unpredictable and unmanageable. Miriam - Milotic - Bold, tenacious, but gets nervous when her friends aren't around. She feeds off the emotions of others and projects her own emotions as raw thought directly into their brains. Ruth - Misdreavus - Infatuated with Carnage. Calm, likes to sing. Zeus - Joltik - Still in an egg, in Lorelei's care. WHO WILL TAKE THE LAST SLOT? TEAM #3 Leader(s): Carmen - human - Charismatic, professional, somewhat greedy. She has strange powers over Darkness. She also happens to be the president of the Weather Institute. Deathly afraid of Castform. also Marco - Bisharp - Indifferent but friendly. He doesn't care for battling but when he does, he's really good. Joint leadership with Carmen. Hates all Braviary. Vincent - Combusken - He wants to prove his worth to his new trainer after his old one ditched him. Has no concept of self preservation and will often cause himself to faint just from the fierceness of his attacks. Lucy - Chansey - not yet obtained - Spacey, doesn't care about pretty much anything. ??? - Raikou - not yet obtained - Haughty, but loyal. THAT LEAVES TWO SLOTS one of which I believe will be filled by a Deino. The other I am considering Mandibuzz as Carmen likes Dark types and has a history with Mandibuzz, but also Serperior, as I think a Serperior would get along well with Raikou. Don't suggest Legendaries (not allowed, Raikou is a special case), Lucario or Zoroark (overused). I'm looking for Pokémon that look cool, have good stats and movepools, fit in well with my existing teams, and have lots of personality. And are not fish, as those are hard to RP as. SUGGESTIONS GO

I feel the need to read every single post. It is miserable. REGARDLESS NOW I CAN AID YOU There was a big bar fight between some (plural) crazy Toa and Matoran and Turaga and Skakdi and most of the Toa Daedra. The Toa was freaking out about some girl named Dreenan, and one of the Toa was dying of poison and needed a miracle cactus, and there were shenanigans, and some Skakdi made out, and a Turaga was cuddling up to some Dadera, AND EVERYONE WAS SO DRUNK and I am embellishing things here but the truth is that one of the Toa, the one who was ill, got some miracle cactus from Lust and now owes her a favor (I think his name was Jasik or something like that) and he wandered off to Le Wahi and everyone is chill now and the bar seems to be in shambles. Also there are probably arrows sticking out of various things. It was stupid, the whole fight. I totally didn't get why it happened. I love the BZPRPG. HAHAHAHAHAHA Man I shoulda read that XD Also I feel compelled to post all of this in my blog because those shenanigans were crazy.

I wasn't Premier for like an hour this afternoon. Prompt Premier service today! Someone look at my BZPRPG profile before I post it (I need some parts from Jetbug before I can finish my depiction of him): Name: Tukru Gender: Male Species: Toa of Stone Mask: Ruru Description: Black and orange-yellow armor. Not very bulky or strong looking - and he isn't. Weapon: Powers: Stone; Night Vision; flashlight face Style: Tukru uses quick strikes, bringing up walls and shields of stone to deflect and distract. In this way his combat is almost more similar to a Toa of Air's than to other Stone Toa. When it comes to small feats and quick strikes he's good with his Element; of larger acts of Stone control he is incapable. Weaknesses: His gung-ho attitude and obnoxious disposition will get him into unpleasant situations, though he usually takes those in stride. Combat weaknesses stem from his lack of experience - He's just generally unskilled (though not necessarily untalented). Character traits: Tukru tends to get way too excited, cross boundaries and seems hyperactive with limitless reserves of energy. The young Toa of Stone tends to speak with perfect honesty, imprudently devoid of all tact and measure. He's forgetful and has a low attention span, talks loud, treats everyone like his best bud, and is generally just not a great person to chill with. Most people avoid him. Biography: Tukru was apparently born a Toa. Because of this there was no life-altering change, no sudden moment of clarity where he saw his destiny unfold - He has always just been himself, and doesn't think the Toa-powers make him any different than the rest of his Koro. He's very young - so young that he doesn't have any recollection of the Toa Mata, being less than one hundred years old. Both of his parents went of questing and never came back (one of them was a Toa of Air, which some in Po Koro complain is probably the reason for Tukru's regrettable personality), but he's never really missed them. Still practically a child, he has a romantic view of adventure and doesn't really feel threatened by the shadow of the Makuta. ~~~~ He sounds really irritating to me. =D

And not in a good way. The Profile Topic for the BZPRPG is mind boggling. My feet are getting a bit chilled, I don't want to fall into those traps. o_o So many contradictions. So many.

Me over the past couple days concerning the BZPRPG and the characters I want to build for it: 1) Yay, BZPRPG reboot, maybe I'll play this time. 2) I like the idea of a Toa of Green. 3) Why is everyone a Toa of Green? D: 4) I like stone. :| 5) I don't want to waste that Toa of Green design but since it uses HF2.0 pieces so much there aren't many colors I can use. :| 6) I think I have a tan Rau that I can put on in place of the lime one! 7) I'm crazy, there is no Rau. (Possibly brought on by a feverish halucination. Also digging around the room in my dust and mold [stuff gets moldy here so fast, my Lego is not exempt D:] did not help my siiiick) 8) despair 9) even more despair because I ordered my HF2.0 Heroes on the 13th, Lego gave them to fedex, fedex gave them to USPS, and USPS has been sitting on them since the 18th and they say they refuse to deliver them until the 2nd. D: 10) REVELATION Drilldozer and Jetbug have the pieces I need to make my Toa of Green a Toa of Stone. 11) Ultimate Despair: Wal Mart has no clue when they'll get the new Lego sets in, Lego Shop charges $15 for express shipping, and I don't know when I can has DrillBug. Kmart is a non-issue because I found a GameBoy Advance game in there (granted, it said compatible with DS on the box, and it was based off of some live action tweendramaNickelodeonorhoweveryouspellit show that I've never heard of) and a Lego set from 2003. Proof. D: 11.2) Discovered while trying to upload proof: My computer has seizures when it tries to upload things. Must route everything through phone. DDDD: 12) I'm also sick. D: 13) D:

It seems like a relatively large number of people signing up for the new BZPRPG are playing as Toa of Green... I may want to rethink one of my characters and give him a more unique element. Or I may just keep Green because it's cool. B) Also what makes me think that 99% of people claiming to be "neutral" are going to be fighting Makuta?

By law, every RPG must have a shady cantina or tavern, and said cantina or tavern must have as many corners as there are players.

Would it be a bad idea to join the new BZPRPG when it goes live? By that time I should be back in control of my characters in the Pokémon RPG and I'll have done some trimming with them (I plan on cutting at least on character). I have an idea for a character for the BZPRPG, and only one character. That's my problem with RPGs, I make too many characters and they get away from me and they all turn out boring 'cause I don't have time to develop them all. I never joined the BZPRPG before because there was just SO MUCH but since they're streamlining it and making it all classic, I'm very interested... My character would be a Toa of Green, probably male, with a Kanohi Crast. Crast (he wouldn't be wearing that actual mask, that's just what its power would be... the Crast would look really weird on a Toa...)

Sand. Grit. Grit under my mask. That was what I felt when I first woke up, dazed and confused on the beach, with no memory of past, no idea of present, and nothing to base thoughts of the future upon. I was face down on the golden sand – yes, I knew it was sand. For some reason things like that don’t leave you when your memory is wiped – and I had this strange aching in my joints, as if I had just fallen off a cliff, or had been run down by a Kane Ra. Now where did that come from? I wondered, as I had no idea what a Kane Ra was. Apparently it was something that could cause you pain, if you were so inclined to be trampled by one. I rolled over in my little crater – yes, I was in a little crater. Mata Nui knows if I made it myself or if I just rolled into it – and had a look at the sun, well on it’s way to noon, and the clear blue sky. Little puffy clouds punctuated the marvelous azure heavens, like little white Mahi goats. I sat up and removed my semi triangular mask from my face to shake it out. It was bright blue, just like the sky. Once I was quite satisfied with the low amount of dirt therein, I returned it to my face and had a look around. I was facing a short, natural rock wall, perhaps ten feet high, that stretched out for a great distance to either side. Over the top of the wall peeped little tufts of grass. This, along with the fact that I could see no mountains or hills over this wall, gave me the impression that wide open grasslands were stretched out up there, and that if I could gain purchase on the wall I might be able to hoist myself up and have a look around. There was no luck in this endeavor, and I soon found myself sitting once again in the sand. It was now that I noticed a strange face in the wall, carved out of the living rock. It was oblong and strange, and it gave me the impression of some ancient totem. It’s mouth was huge and strange, circular and gasping like some oversized Ruki’s maw. Along either side of it’s mouth ran slits, looking like some sort of tribal war paint. Something about this stone apparition disquieted me, so I turned around to face the sound that had been ringing in my head this whole time, but for some reason I had not been able to connect it to any idea in my mind. This just shows how dazed I was, as any normal being would have first glanced in all directions upon waking up in a strange country. ================== FYI, first draft, did not even take the time to proof read. Maybe I'll turn it into an epic if I get the time and inspiration, dunno. I tried to do a MNOLG epic like two years ago but I only wrote one short chapter. Problem is I'm overly descriptive so three paragraphs will only get me to Takua finding the canister. D= Maybe I'll write a fourth... And yes I know those paragraphs are completely improper in terms of size, but when I read it out loud then no one will be able to tell. Oh yeah, this is for a writing class I've been doing for the past month or so. BtB -
I won't be able to enter SZ's contest, sadly, even with all the extensions. Mainly because I didn't get inspiration and an outline until about a week ago, and since then... well, I'm not used to writing much, so my mind wears out after every few paragraphs. Today I wrote several hunded words, and now my story is just shy of 3000. Still, I've got about a thousand words to go and my mind is completely fried. So I'll try to finish it tomorrow or the next day, edit it, and then post it... so hopefully it'll be posted within a week. gaaagh my mind is wandering so much it took me like twenty minutes to write this *wanders off* BtB

Okay, listen up loonies. I had a massive turn out when I began to accept GS for my epic... too massive. But what's done is done, and I can't change the past. Originally, I had hoped I could make all of you main characters. Sadly, I cannot due to the little factoid that I have *counts* Over fifty -Matoran- characters. That doesn't even count the other species. >< *headache* So here's the dizzle, I choose some people who I think will be more interesting, and I include them as main characters. Or something like that. Now don't worry, you'll still have a part if you signed up, but not necessarily a big one. If you aren't on the main characters list, you still have a chance to make it for book two. :: So here we go, first main characters, then supporting. (Note: I did not choose people out of friendship. I am more likely to choose people who signed up earlier, as I have had more time to think of their roles. Lists are subject to change.) Main Characters: Tukru, by me Patuara, by Arpy Sercatos, by Mord Kamya, by me Kamitsu, by me Laran, by me Supporting Characters: Vors, by ChocolateFrogs Juvio, by Lluvio/-Hafu- Mugen, by Setsuna (?) Yahri, by me Seyna, by me Honyk, by me Pokamu, by me Engre, by me (><) Toa: (I'll sprinkle these in wherever they belong) Gaimu, me Kokaru, me Nilda, me (she's insane, also a character from a comic I was gonna do years ago. Actually, I think all these Toa are... ) Rehye, me Nieve, Nieve (I let this one be a Toa, as I had forgotten I was missing one) Madara, by ~BlueDaimond~ (?) Besa, by me Dalek, by Dalek. (?) :: Well, that's it. Surely some side characters will rise up to be main characters as I write more. Currently I only have about a chapter done. (><) Oh, and these were really just the ones that instantly popped into my head as I wrote this. It's not entirely accurate. See yall later!

Cookies to whoever can guess what mythical being's name I based that word on. It's a word in one Matoran dialect from my epic. Likely if you guess what the myth is you'll be able to guess what the word mean. In that case two cookies. Oh, and Clear Sky is classified as a Talis. Oh, and I replied to all those MOC topics. So if you posted a comment/criticism/query there you may find it is answered. And if you haven't posted there yet do so.

Dear Seyna, Today was pretty normal. I helped Laran in the forges this morning, then, once work was through, I went to the cave mouth to read. I could have gone to watch Laran surf, but Ignak has gotten pretty boring to me lately. While I was reading I could have sworn I felt the Korukah out there, hidden in the rain. I stopped telling people about my experiences a while back. No one ever believed me, not even Laran. I feel so alone sometimes… you're the only person I can talk to. I slipped on my way to the hut and got one of my scrolls wet. I'm taking a break from copying it to write this letter to you. The ink is really running… Sometimes it's very dreary here… the rain is always falling outside, and the only light is that of the lightstones… I long for sunlight. Lluvio will be here soon to pick up this letter. His ussals are so cute, aren't they? Maybe he won't be in a hurry and I can pet them… Oh, when I woke up yesterday morning there was something beside my bed. A tall thing, covered in smoke. It was hard to get a good look at, because most people were still sleeping and few lightsones were lit. A strange green glow came from where it's face should be. When it realized I was awake it turned and crouched, or slithered out of my hut. I've stopped being afraid. I see these apparitions so often. Your friend, Kamya. BtB

I... I just can't bring myself to write anything. It's so frustrating... you know? I got a bunch of people to sign up and now I have no inspiration. I know where the story goes, and annoyingly, I'm content with that. I knew I shouldn't have made an outline... On a related note, I find it very hard to finish WIPs. I guess I'm a perfectionist when it comes to building, so I never want to stop working. Then everything becomes overcomplicated as I tack more stuff on to make it cool. BtB

That is a statement. I have to work 50 Matoran characters into my epic. 6 of them are Dalek, lol. I wish I hadn't accepted guest stars. Almost. I think I'm up to the challenge. I just finished getting my notes in order, so I'll try to write a few scenes in a bit. For a full list of Matoran characters click here. ---------- Current Musical Obsession: Plenty of Paper, by Eisley on the album entitled Room Noises. ---------- Oh, and since 3 of 5 people said to use ~Bunda, I'll test it for a bit. ~Bunda

Okay, thanks everyone for signing up to be in my epic. It'll be interesting writing for some of you. FAQ: All the people who signed up will be used, but I cannot guarantee that you all will be main characters. Some of you will, for sure though. To acompany the BZP cast, there are a handful of characters I've made up. Many of them will have to be Ga Matoran, since methinks none of you signed up as them. I was surprised. There are four Toa and one Turaga at the start of the story. They are: Toa Nilda, female Toa of Ice Toa Rehye, male Toa of Fire Toa Gaimu, male Toa of Gravity Toa Kokara, (<name is WIP suggestions taken) male Toa of Green & Turaga Engre, (<pronounced 'injure') female Turaga of Water. The villages are: Monu Koro, village of the forges. Takke Koro, village of the jungle. Osoo Koro, village of the mines. & Raiwo Koro, village of the libraries. Q&A Now for the Q&A, but that's your job. Ask me a question about it and I'll tell you, so long as it won't spoil the plot. Now if you'll excuse me, I have some PMing and organizing to do with all your profiles... There IS no signoff!

Edit: Gender doesn't matter. You can be male and be a Matoran of Lightning, or Water, etc. If you do, just post a discription of your Matoran self here. Your personality, the way you look, anything that might make writing about you easier.* Anybody I find interesting I'll put in my epic. Only Matoran please, the Toa and Turaga are spoken for. By me. You may use a picture instead of a discription. Please, please help me on this. I need more characters. This epic will most likely only be in my blog, because it'll be easier to keep and it'll get more attention. BtB *Like you're signing up for an RPG. But this IS NOT an RPG.People, this is not an RPG. I want no powers, and only official elements as listed on BS01. Please be reasonable with your colors. The main character is a Po Matoran who is brown and white, so that's okay. But I don't want a purple and black Ta Matoran. Purple or black would be okay for a secondary, but at least try to include one basic primary color: Orange primary, black secondary, etc... Also, no backstories, unless first approved by me. That means I don't want you going off about wandering from island to island. All the Matoran on Komok have been here a long time, and almost all of them got here the same way. So to clarify: I want a discription on your (reasonable) physical appearance, and a discription of your personality. Aye. NO MORE, NO LESS. I reserve the right to clip and edit any of your entries, to make them fit into the story better. Edit: READ THIS PURPLE!

I finished the short story on Cera tonight. I think it isn't half bad, but I'll let you tell me what you think. Tomorrow. BtB

I'm writing a brief story to accompany my unofficial BBC contest entry tonight. It's a part of my epic, but quite a ways in. I haven't written that far yet. Still, I know the plot so I can jump ahead and write about Cera. There's still time (but not much!) if you want to sign up for my epic here. And please read carefully the part highlighted in purple, it's rather clarifying. Aye! BtB
