Burnmad Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 IC: Ollem - Wastes Suva (7, 8) Ollem winced. Right, she wasn't from Metru-Nui; she wouldn't know everything he talked about. "Ah, that's what the Vahki are, sorry. In a manner of speaking, anyway." He glanced at the Kanoka she was holding. It looked distinctly like Ga-Metruan handiwork. Maybe she salvaged it off a Vahki? Which would mean the survivors have been sending out parties. To look for him, maybe? Eh, probably not. More likely scouting out the surroundings. He wondered if the locals had had Kanoka disks, but he wasn't sure how to ask. "That disk you're holding, we had those in Metru-Nui..."

Kal the Guardian Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 1 hour ago, ~Xemnas~ said: IC, Aurax: The Eclipse Once the four beings had entered the airship, Aurax turned to Saybo. "Alright Saybo, take us back to Metru-Nui." Aurax waited for his guests to arrive on the bridge in order to discuss strategy with them. IC, OTIS/The Takea: The Eclipse When Waveahk and Rose entered the cargo hold of the Eclipse, they noticed a large mechsuit standing in their way. Sensing the newcomers, OTIS moved the Takea out of their way so that they could make their way up past it. IC: Saybo - Toa of Water - Aurax (Still officially Barraki) Location - Outside Metru-Koro (6, 9), inside the Eclipse With - (Great Being) Aurax, Stannis, Skyra, Rose, Waveahk Saybo helped both Waveahk and Rose up into the cargo bay, closing the floor after them. A closer inspection revealed the potential Steltian did have a small tail, making what species he was even more mysterious. Was he a fish turning into a Steltian or the other way around? A grin was plastered on Saybo’s face, “Well you two have fun, my friends. I’ve gotta go fly us out of here.” The Toa of water exited the spacious cargo bay, the door hissing closed behind him. He took the straight path and re-entered the bridge, looking around. It already felt like there was barely enough space for the command consoles as is, thank Aurax those two giants couldn’t even make it through the hallways. Saybo guestimated that mayhaps you could pack in roughly sixteen beings on the bridge if they mushed up against everyone else and the chairs were taken out, but the ceiling gave only half a head clearance for Saybo and he was about the size of the average Toa. The red and blue overgrown beings would be very uncomfortable if they could even squeeze their way through the hallway. The Great Aurax commanded their departure and Saybo nodded, seating himself in the pilot’s seat. He turned on the levitation system and six thunks sounded out simultaneously from around the ship. The whir of the landing gear retreating into the hull was accompanied by the propulsion system lowering from the main body and powering on. Saybo appreciated the faint new airship smell one last time and pointed them back towards the giant robot head. Slowly increasing their speed to maximum, the Eclipse rode through the darkening sky as the sun started to kiss the top of the giant robot head. Metru-Koro would soon be in shadow, but true sunset was still a couple hours away. OOC: @~Xemnas~ @EmperorWhenua @Tarn @Snelly @Toru Nui Waveahk and Rose joining everyone else on the bridge is SKR canonically impossible. But also space has been known to be wonky even on small airships, so have them join everyone else if you deem it convenient, don't let my descriptions stop you. 1 ----------------------------- --------- “BRUH” -Makuta, probably --------- ----------------------------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvali Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 IC Mahrika - Northwest Barrens above the Impact Site “I found this disk near a living machine. I don’t think the Skakdi are capable of building such a machine or a disk like this. And the symbol, seems to be in a version of Matoran. I … I can you describe a Vahki’s look to me? I … I need to be sure you aren’t lying. I haven’t seen another Matoran for thousands of years, it’s … hard to believe there are others left,” she swallowed, her logic made sense to her at least. It was … it seemed possible he was real. He didn’t ripple like the Toa of Water, he might just have been using some sort of technology to vanish. Something that imitates a Huna, or the element of Light. Like her disk’s element of Ice. She … she was probably hopelessly naive to even thinking of believing him. But trusting strangers, the last time she did that she saved her beloved. And if there were other Matoran left, even from some far off land, that could only be good.

There would be time to deal with what she had said ... later. Once all of this had been dealt with and Metru-Koro had been protected. But how to do so.... Back in her old village, Irna would have simply handed the Mask of Creation over -- a mere bauble it would have been compared to the lives of her kin. But that was a younger Irna, a woman who had borne witness to the League sending the Krom Sphere into the clutches of Mata-Nui, who had not seen the mask-bearers' god murder a man for no reason apart from malice. The thought of letting the League bring such a creature back to life.... "I ... might understand his reasoning," Irna said. "But ... what if we made a forgery of some kind? At least buy ourselves some time to evacuate the city." OOC: @Smudge8 @TL01 NUVA -Void [ BZPRPG ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Takanuva Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 IC: Keitara (A pressing need to save the world) Sensing a gap in the conversation, Kei piped up. "I'm not saying it's impossible, but... well, this mask sounds powerful, like Great Kanohi powerful. My mask... it's hard to explain. It's like I can feel its power, like ants on my skin. Oh, we find a skilled Toa of Iron and a nice diagram we could probably make a duplicate. But even a Matoran can sense the power in a mask, though they are incapable of tapping it." She turned to Irna. "It's a good idea, but the hard part would be sell..." She trailed off. A small glimmer had formed in her mind, the faint glow of an idea. Kei turned to the other, purpose now in her voice. "Forgive my memory, it's a bit fragmwnted, but would I be mistaken in thinking that there is such a thing as a Toa of Psionics?" Kei's heartlight was racing. Irna's idea was simple. It could so easily go wrong, but tyen again none of them were in any position to be picky. Lives were at stake.

Nato G Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 IC: Zaliyah - Le-Metru She had been poring over an old map of Metru-Nui while she waited for the others to finish installing their artillery, trying to plan their next move. Charging straight at Metru-Koro wasn't an option, as far as she was concerned. If this was to be done, it needed to be done properly. Her earlier idea to fly around to the far side of the head would be too time-consuming, and put them at risk of being spotted or attacked by the local skakdi. Fortunately, another option was available, one she felt foolish for not considering earlier. Now that the work looked to be done, she clambered out of the airship and approached the others, "Are you all ready to set off? I think we should take a quick detour out to Po-Metru before we set out. Ehlek said there's a balance between range and power with these cannons. I think it would be prudent to put them to the test before the attack." @Onaku @Eyru @Toru Nui 2 Embers - a new Bionicle Epic - Teaser Class Is Out - A Farewell To Corpus Rahkshi - Chapters/Review BZPRPG Characters - Minnorak, Kain, T'harrak, Savis, Vazaria, Lash BZPRPG Mercenary Group - The Outsiders - Description - History - Base Ghosts Of Bara Magna - Ash Tribe - Precipere - Kehla, Somok, Skrall, Gayle, Avinus, Zha'ar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've got big mandibles that they hold and fire Kanoka with, and they carry around staves that have different kinds of powers.

Crimson Jester Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 IC: Korruhn, Ruin of Ice Korruhn's fist hit the podium, and an ancient, forgotten curse word he had found scrawled onto a temple wall back in Metru Nui left his mouth with great anger, filling the room. It had become harder and harder for Korruhn to control his rage as of late, and the revelation that they were trapped in this temple, with no lead on a way out, while the citizens of Metru Koro were probably in danger from one of the hundreds of only-Mata Nui-knows-what species that roam this accursed scar in the ocean they call an island. He was stumped, and he was afraid. By this point, Korruhn was about ready to try anything. He concentrated on the darkness in the room, pulling it toward his right fist, beginning to swirl around him in a tangible storm of the blackest of blacks. Manipulating the curling black shadow, he cast it into the bowl of the podium, hoping to activate something--anything.

She said, more snappily than she'd intended. "Patience may not be one of your Three Virtues, but it's still a virtue worth respecting."

Sparticus147 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC: Torak (Irnakk's Tooth) Trying to turn his head in the general direction from where the voice came from Torak responded to the aspects question, "Yeah, Apex was what dat shraking thing called itself. Said something about being a predator to skakdi I think, parently it wanted me to deliver a message about it's name. Hey, does any of you all got something for a light head, cause I don't know if it's the blood loss or the noxious air but things are startin' to feel swervey here." Torak ended his sentence, starting to slouch in his stance and having to be carried by the two skakdi that were dragging him. OOC: @Conway IC: Uraborask (Northern Zakaz) Driving through the Zakazian night, overshadowed by the massive head of a dead world, Uraborask made his way back to Po-Koro, parking outside the settlement at the approximate place where he picked up Ulkarr. Getting out of the truck, Uraborask used his deductive vision to look through the sandy desert for any sign of where the tradeskak had went. Spending several minutes surveying the earth around him to find a discernable trail. Finding a trail, Uraborask followed it as best he could from within his truck, keeping a slow enough pace to not lose track of the trail but enough to outpace himself if he had simply walked. Uraborask didn't care to stalk, he didn't care if he caught his quarry with them none the wiser, all he wanted was the kill. And so he drove, the silence of the desert being broken by only the engine of the truck and the long reaching desert winds...till a barking cry could be heard. Stopping the truck, Uraborask got out of his vehicle and followed the sound to find the tradeskak, half buried in what appeared to be a hapaka's den, trying to hide, the resident owner of said den outside trying to pull the skakdi out. Approaching the tradeskak, Uraborask pulled out the tradeskak by their leg. "Oh hey, no time long see, listen I was on my way to the Rig I swear, I just needed a place to rest for the night when that little thing just came and starting yapping its head off. Hey, you know what, if you still have the truck, we could just ride there together, what do you say?" As the tradeskak spoke, Uraborask simply loomed over him, the full predatory might of himself in full view of the measly skakdi. The trader pleaded, he begged, he even tried to fight back at one point, but where the trader was a nothing more than a rat, Uraborask was a wild beast. Uraborask simply stood there, blood on his machete and hands, looking down towards the corpse. "Another weakling removed from this worlds." Uraborask said, till he felt something nudge his leg. Looking down, Uraborask saw the hapaka that had given the tradeskak away, looking up at him with this curious and playful look. Normally, Uraborask would have ignored the hound, maybe even killed it too if he was hungry, but something nagged at the back of his head. "But you are alone. Utterly alone..." Reaching down towards the hapaka, Uraborask hesitantly patted the rahi on its head, before taking the trader's corpse and carrying it back to the truck, the hapaka seemingly following along. Tossing the corpse into the back of the truck, Uraborask turned back towards the waiting hapaka. Picking it up, Uraborask looked into the rahi's eyes, before pronoucing one word, "Skrillix." Placing the hapaka within the back seat of the truck, Uraborask got into the driver's seat and proceeded to make his way back home to the Rig. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Fanixe Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) IC: It was dark in the circular room, the broken shaft of light that illuminated the central pond failing to adequately lighten the chamber. that, coupled with Atzemio's decreased vision, explained why he didn't notice anything wrong with the suit of armor until he was nearly upon it. There was no one in it. Just as Atzemio was going to pierce the armor he angled his own sword away, the point scraping across the back and to the side of Lrrthxx, leaving a small scratch. The attack diverted, Atzemio took a step back and regarded the suit of armor. The Aspect slowly turned around. Atzemio gripped his sword more tightly. He didn't understand what was happening. Lrrthxx regarded the dead Toa intently, not saying a word. "I don't know.....what you are. Do not get in my way..... and there'll be no trouble.... between us" Atzemio told the Aspect. Atz' empty eyes betraying no fear of apprehension, he made his way past Lrrthxx and toward the hallway on the right. @Unreliable Narrator @Azibo ooc: got permission from azibo to bunny his character through the temple.

Eyru Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC: Tuakana | Ruins of Fire Three Aspects gathered together was a rare occurrence. It had been many years since they had even seen another of their kind, and now they had met two in as many minutes. The times were changing. The falling of the great skull from the sky seemed to have triggered something into motion, like the falling of small stones that start an avalanche. Their slow mind was unaccustomed to such speedy events, and even now they had to resist the temptation to find a quiet place to sit down and think about what had already transpired. The ringing of the gong had awakened old memories, filling their ancient brain with the past. The weight of their long history bore down upon them. It made the present seem incredibly small. Of what significance was the sounding of the gong? It had sounded before, and would likely sound again. Was it necessary to gather here like they had done before? Yes. Yes, it was. They mentally shook themselves out of the encroaching stupor. They had a new follower. They were reminded of their great trial. Time, that wily opponent, sought to bury them in memories. They would not succumb. They would continue on until their enemy was vanquished. These new events were surely portents of a shift in power. They would use it. They would take the upper hand. So they rose gradually from their haunches and raised their arm, pointing a long finger towards the entrance of the ancient ziggurat. "The ringing... needs a ringer," they said slowly, dragging their mind back to the present. Logic was hard to locate sometimes, but it was sound as stone once they arrived. "Let us enter."

Harvali Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC Mahrika - Northwest Barrens above the Impact Site The Ga-Matoran forced herself to try to relax, though her heartlight was still unsteady. Vokarda squirmed around her spine, trying to calm her through gentle pressure. Kanoka meant disk, roughly, so this weapon she found was a Kanoka. And he described that metal machine accurately. The look of the Vahki was … it was something he shouldn’t know even if he had trapped her in an illusion with vision powers. And if he was a Skakdi of Psionics, he wouldn’t be able to use his powers with enough finesse to probe her mind without her noticing, right? And a Skakdi could not use a Kanohi, not to mention now that he was visible, his form was very solid. Not like the Toa, He could be an Aspect, but she stressed she was spoken for and … and the stories about Aspects her tribe believed were wrong anyway, Tuakana proved that. He could be some other breed she had never heard of … but she shouldn’t get lost in constant what ifs. He … he seemed to be a Matoran. And according to him, his home had been destroyed. Like here Finally she said, “Sorry. It’s … haven’t had this kind of conversation in a while. I … I did not know there were Matoran left. I … it seemed impossible. And maybe it is, maybe it’s a trick. But that mountain, it seems impossible for even a hundred Skakdi of Earth and Stone to make it so quickly. Maybe … reality is changing. Maybe there is hope. But I am sorry for the loss of your home. Even if it wasn’t a good place to live, it still had memories.” Like her damp underwater cave. She turned to look at the Suva, “I … I want to believe you are a real Matoran, so I will. But then, are the two of us both trapped in an illusion together? That Toa doesn’t seem solid to me, and I would have thought that all of our temples would have been destroyed long ago. Could it have been unearthed in that sandstorm?” Her telescopic lens began to give her a magnified view of the Suva’s walls and structures, though she did not release her Kanoka from her trio. It was … better to be safe, even if he was not a threat.

BULiK Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) IC: Knichou, Metru-Koro, Outside San's Hut Knichou was silent for a moment as he considered the options before him. After some deliberation, he responded. "You can wait outside - we're going to be discussing the League's attack, and I don't think you'd have much to contribute since this isn't exactly familiar territory for you. If I needed to discuss the... opportunities... of your kin, I would appreciate your firsthand knowledge, but that won't be relevant to what I need to talk with Sans about. All his and my questions will relate to Pridak's approaching war and the raid on Po-Koro, which I don't need your help to describe." That was a very diplomatic way of saying to stay out of his business. While Knichou's gut didn't trust Whisper - moreso than even his usual distrust of others - Knichou's other reasons were hopefully legitimate enough to not upset the aspect too much. The adage was always to keep your friends close and enemies closer, but Whisper was neither and that particular bit of wisdom didn't account for this edge case. He wouldn't shoo away Whisper if she did want to come inside, but her conveniently staying out might simplify the upcoming negotiations.

Based on what he'd seen, this world looked pretty low-tech compared to Metru-Nui-- or at least, what was left of it did. But maybe it hadn't always been that way.

Eyru Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC: Dar Poroka | Le-Metru Shipyards Poroka sit in captain chair. Chair little small for Poroka. It Matoran sized chair. But it's okay. Any chair good. Just don't break, chair. Thank you. "This Poroka speaking," Poroka says to robots. Hmm. Wait. Better idea. "This Captain Poroka speaking." Oooh. Poroka like that. "Let's go, robots. Make ship fly, please." Always good idea be polite. Poroka mama teach that. Poroka, she always say. Mind your manners. Poroka love mama, so be polite. Even to robots. Say please and thank you. Good captain make crew happy. Poroka want happy crew. Only good time on Poroka ship. Oh yeah. "Blue robot. What ship name?" Blue robot turn head. Still make ship fly, though. Smart robot. Do two things in one time. "This vessel is registered under C-137 Wombat, captain." "What wombat?" Robot make buzzing noise. "According to my records, the wombat is a marsupial Rahi native to the southern islands. They are small but strong, with large front teeth and powerful claws. They excavate extensive burrow systems—" "Okay robot," Poroka says. That enough talk. "Wombat is Rahi. Thank you." Ship go up slow. Sky all dark, but there big hole in sky. Another sky outside hole. Let's go there. Ship go up, up up. Now over buildings. People on street look like bugs. Hello, bugs. Captain Poroka has big gun, nice ship, smart robots. Guard ships is really good job. "Aim for sky hole, please," Poroka says. "We got date with destiny." Oh yeah.

"Hey big guy, how about you come back here for a minute," she suggested, hoping Poroka was receiving messages. "We want to... uh, go smash some statues before we go blow up the village.

It'd be really... you know... embarrassing to fly all the way out there then find out your guns don't work." Hmm. That good point. Poroka not big gun person. Like sword more. Practice good idea. And smash statues sound fun. Smash always sound fun. "Okay," Poroka says. "Green, tell new person it good idea. Where statues?" Green robot press button. "Transmission received, Razorfish.

EmperorWhenua Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 47 minutes ago, ~Xemnas~ said: “Here is my plan. Once we arrive at the Coliseum we’ll dock at the top of the Coliseum. Saybo and I will bring Stannis before Pridak. We’re going to have to bind you and remove your mask. We’ll also need to scuff up your armor. We have to make this convincing.” Aurax turned back to the controls and bent down, opening a panel. He pulled out a small radio and addressed Skyra, Rose, and Waveahk. “You three will stay on the ship as backup. Once Pridak is ready to execute Stannis, I’ll try to hit him in the face with a blast of plasma. If I’m lucky, he’ll be dead after the first shot. If not, well... listen to the radio, and when you hear #### starting to hit the fan, that’s when you come and help us. Saybo, once I attack Pridak, you’ll need to give Stannis his mask back and undo his bindings. ”Any questions?” IC Stannis | The Eclipse The old man could hardly believe his ears. He at first simply stared at Aurax, and then once he could comfortably determine he had truly shared his plan Stannis shook his head, slowly at first and then with growing vigor. Despite the negative reaction he still managed to chuckle through it, deep and booming like a rock bouncing down a deep chasm. "I'm afraid that relies on all of us trusting in your infallibility—there are too many ifs for you to even show faith in your own plan." He quickly stiffened, however, and straightened his demeanor... as best he could in the confines of the smaller vessel. The Eclipse was much smaller than the Taku, and even with the greatly diminished company he still found himself wanting for more space. He stooped a little, though it was a stature seemingly befitting his aged and sinewy body. "I do not question but I will object. If I am to be a pawn, I will be better used as a distraction than a sacrifice. I know too much to not be made better use of." He was wary of Aurax's ability to deceive, and Stannis was not sure which of the dark toa's aspirations was stronger at any moment: His desire to seize Pridak's crown or utterly humiliate Stannis. As a result, he would not entrust Aurax or his lackey with his whole fate. "You can gain admittance to the Coliseum, yes? I know it's layout. And I can offer you the opportunity to strike Pridak when he least expects your betrayal." BZPRPG Profiles / Critical Acclaim / Complaints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Xemnas~ Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC, Aurax: The Eclipse Aurax was beginning to grow tired of hearing the old Toa speak. But he knew that Stannis was a good ideas man, so he decided to hear what he had to say. “Alright old man, what exactly do you have in mind?” he asked.

Taka Nuvia Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC: Zsann, following Mega Although Zsann was really tiring of all the talking at this point, she figured her presence at Mega's side would still be appreciated. So when the Matoran walked back over to the Toa, the Skakdi, like so often, followed her back. The way Mega addressed who was apparently the ship's captain did cause her to raise an eyebrow, but from the reply's tone she figured it was okay? For now she would just continue to listen in on the conversation, stand there and continue to pretend Mega hired her as a personal guard or something.

ZippyWharrgarbl Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC: Yaushe - Oh! Van Yaushe watched Mega and Zsann go, and then noticed the odd shape of Whisper with them. She couldn't believe she'd missed them over there the first time. She remembered them from when she was back with her other friends, on that transporter. They'd been selling something weird. She considered trying to get their attention, but it wasn't like she had an arm to wave at them. Maybe she'd try calling out if they got close enough.

Void Emissary Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC: Parnassus | Ash Barrens A slender shadow -- like that of a branch of a young sapling -- suddenly passed over the prisoner's face.

Harvali Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 (edited) IC Mahrika - Wastes Suva ”My name is Mahrika,” Her name felt odd spoken out loud, almost alien coming out of her mask. She hadn’t exactly had to use it for a long time. “I … I know of illusions, the kind a Toa of Psionics could make, or a user of a Mahiki, are holograms like that?” She continued to scan the Suva’s structure, looking for clues engraved the walls and pillars. OOC: @Burnmad @Unreliable Narrator … IC Kanohi - Po-Koro Kanohi grappled atop the young Knowledge Tower of Po-Koro, using the increased elevation to search far and wide. He peered over the horizon, trying to spot anything in the distance. Sadly the landscape blurred the farther it laid from him, even from this height his view was limited . He tensed up he … it was clear that he really needed to learn how to make telescopic lens. Not just for himself, but for much of Po-Koro. It could only help this crude village to be able to spot far away. And since even a powerless Matoran could use it, it could help the Matoran spot dangers in advance. The Fe-Matoran grappled down, landing in a tumble on the rocky ground below. He reached into his armor to pull out the last device Vakama had worked on, that incomplete telescopic lens, built for Kanohi. Be-before Kanohi had abandoned him. Vakama’s mask had been shattered, and the Po-Koro Matoran had melted the shards down to make tools. There was nothing left to remember him by, except this lens. It … Kanohi had to finish the work. He owed Vakama that much and so much more. Vakama had lacked the parts to finish the lens, but … Jovan was hopefully mining ore by now, that would mean new resources. Most ore should be used for Kanoka or even masks, but … if he could finish the telescopic lens… Kanohi began to walk towards the rough mine, he … he had never made something so intricate, but Po-Koro would need more skilled crafting, he would need to learn. “Please Kaita, don’t let me break it,” he muttered as he walked to check in on the Turaga.

Azibo Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 IC: Lrrthxx, Fau Temple As was his way, Lrrthxx stood and observed the temple for some time. He tried to remember any of the symbols or carvings. He waited as a statue, seemingly joining the figures etched in the stone, allowing time for his mind to reach far, far back, further than any reference point in time could decipher. His memory failed him. The ancient one could not recall any meaning to these shapes. As he was deciding on his next move, some force accosted his side. Lrrthxx turned slowly, to see some figure standing there with a sword. It hadn't went for his head, so maybe it was just an exploratory poke. "I don't know.....what you are. Do not get in my way..... and there'll be no trouble.... between us." Well, at least it wasn't stupid. His armor probably received a scratch from the hit, but Lrrthxx was never one to look pristine anyways. He could almost forgive this being for making sure he was even still alive with how still he stood. As it went inside the temple, Lrrthxx knew his next move. "Someone to spring the traps for me," he thought, and followed inside. As the hallway darkened from the loss of natural light, Lrrthxx remembered this being was of a kind he had not seen in an age. "Wait for me, Toa, this temple probably houses secrets meant for me, though anything I can't make of use of you're free to enjoy. Why not work together and uncover this new and old mystery?"
