Krayzikk Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 It does. There are several species that don't have much (or any) presence anymore, or the player behind them is gone.

Jump into random peoples' interaction with no thought or care for whether or not they want you to do so. That's how I made friends here and I'm still not sure whether Tyler is just humouring me and secretly wants me gone, or if he actually enjoys having me around. 1 profiles i guess i'm a south american giant otter now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvan Haven Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I believe that it is a reference to the character currently in Tyler's avatar. Said character being a functional mute.

Yeah. Haven't decided whether or not jumping through all of those hoops just to have a character with one of them was personally worth it yet, but I did eventually obtain the information I was seeking to acquire.I also found the concept of the Anxilia/Toa/Parakuka combo that Canis proposed way back on Page 27 (May, 2013) to be quite interesting. That should've totally been a thing.

Timageness Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Well, if we're talking about an evil character here, it might be worth considering taking a page out of Keeper's book and going the extra mile to barter for a vial of Antidermis, as Fyura's Hunger abilities seem to be at least somewhat capable of counteracting Vayde's energy consumption.Throw in a Hau or a Pakari as the Anxilia, and you'd have a pretty interesting set-up for a Tank Build as well, since it would be kind of hard not to focus on a hulking, 'roided-out monstrosity that could potentially tear you apart with their bare hands during the middle of a skirmish when they can also start draining things like your stamina and Elemental Energy.

Keeper of Kraata Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I'm particularly proud of Fyura's power set because it creates an unstable equilibrium for her: she can feed to drain energy, which staves off her parakuka. However, it also allows her to shift more often, which speeds up the parakuka' draining of her lifespan, which makes her want to drain more... Om nom nom. 1 The times, they are a-changing...

Timageness Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 As far as I know, the species that need to be added to the list are the Anxilia (which has been around for quite some time now) and the Tiokaha (if any others were approved "recently," feel free to chime in, people). Both can be found relatively easily via use of the search bar.Hubert also has an older Iroiit character that's still active, and was trying to resurrect that particular species as well at one point, but I currently have no knowledge about whether or not he succeeded in doing so.

Krayzikk Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 The Anxila, at this time, are a nonissue. Until such a time as JL comes back and resumes the plots and events involving them, there has been (and only will be, due to the plot-based nature of their creation) the one batch of Anxila. In other words, anyone who can have one already has one. Uyism is an active character, but the Iroiit as a whole have not been approved on a species-wide basis this arc, As for what has been approved overall, the staff don't really maintain a list of custom species, masks, and elements. Largely because there are specific circumstances behind them. Uyism and Karnakie, for example, are both individuals from species that are as a whole not approved. Only the specific character is. Similar occurrences happen with masks (Vakua's Suletu, for example), and there are things that were approved that have been quietly axed entirely (looking at you, Valkyr). I'll see about discussing the creation of such a list for next arc, but we don't actively maintain them. The approved species list in the Profiles Topic exists for Bionicle and BZPPG canon species. Bionicle canon is obvious, and the only example of a BZPRPG canon species is the Lesterin, which are on that list because they have become ubiquitous. To answer the direct question that was asked, though... Assuming my memory is accurate, there are no active custom elements. There was one example of a custom element this arc, but it was a unique one-off occurrence. Species are a little more broad. We have the Tiokaha, recently. At the start of this arc the Lesterin were custom, but at this point they're just commonplace. Off the top of my head, those are the only two. A lot of species didn't bridge the gap between Arc 1 and Arc 2, and some of the ones that did were relying on players that are no longer around. 2 On this eve, the thirtieth anniversary of that first colony, many are left to wonder; is the world fast approaching a breaking point?

Krayzikk Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) It can definitely seem a little much at first. If you ever need any help, we're always happy to answer questions. In fact, I'm answering a question right now. Well, part of one. We get asked a lot "When's the next arc?" or "What'll the next chapter be like?" Am I about to answer those? Of course not.

Voxumo Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Hmm... I love the implications of that image. The terrain makes me think of two possible locations on Mata-nui, though the fact there is a skakdi really throws me off. However aside from that, I do have actual question unrelated to that. What is a generally accepted 'description' of energy blasts in the BZPRPG? Like I know there are several different items and characters that use the term energy blasts, but like how would you describe the damage of it? Would burn, or would it just feel more like being hit with a blunt object, like brick?

Krayzikk Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 Generic "energy blast", generally, implies force and heat. Not a massive amount of the latter, unless otherwise noted.
