  1. I'm pretty sure that your first question has been asked before (like waaaay back) and that it was established that the Ignika's spirit is merely dormant within the mask, suppressed by Mata Nui's consciousness.
  2. Stopped reading here. As far as I know there's no evidence of GBs existing before planets and they definitely aren't gods or stuff. Well, where would they live before planets? What would they use to make things?They aren't?Wow, that's news to me. I guess the title of "great beings" is a little misleading then. I figured they were just spirit/psionic beings with power enough to create things without themselves needing a planet or something to live on.It should be noted that the Great Beings didn't originally have an inexorable desire to create things; that only came about when Annona attempted to feed on the dreams of the Great Beings. The minds of the GBs were too strange and alien for her too handle and they instead fed on her dreams, which sparked their compulsion to create. Therefore, they wouldn't have had the desire to create since the beginning of the universe.
  3. If I recall correctly, Strakk is currently living in the Wastelands due to his exile.There are only two remaining Makuta; Miserix and the alternate Teridax.All of the Shadow Matoran except for Vultraz were cured and brought back to Metru Nui (and later relocated to Spherus Magna). Vultraz is currently in an alternate universe being experimented on by Great Beings. They were powerful wild cards that could have posed a threat to his ambitions.
  4. Excluding Certavus, the best Glatorian would probably be Ackar, although his age is beginning to catch up to him. Or Tarix.
  5. Perhaps he was disintegrated but had has atoms stored and reconstructed? I mean, I think that'd be kinda like death, since disintegration isn't really something you survive.
  6. Not necessarily anything to do with shadow. It could have a completely different etymology that simply happens to resemble that of "Kraata" and "Kraahkan." A lot of words have similar spellings but different roots. For example, "quasar" and "quantum" both begin with "qua-," but the word "quasar" comes from the term "quasi-stellar radio source" (wherein the term "quasi-" means "as if" in Latin), while the word "quantum" comes from the Latin word "quantus," which means "how much."
  7. Plasma is just superheated gas, essentially.
  8. Wasn't it confirmed that Mata Nui gave the Matoran the ability to speak Agori, and that the RoS bunch weren't affected because they were inside the Great Beings' fortress at the time?
  9. The thing about alternate realities is that while they start with one single alteration (major or minor), that one alteration tends to kick off a domino effect that extends indefinitely into the future, which in turn results in many more alterations.
  10. ////// I know part of the answer to the second one. They are not native, because Annona describes how she was there before the Great Beings came to Spherus Magna. Well, that doesn't necessarily mean that the Great Beings aren't native to the planet; it just means that they aren't the only things to have evolved there (which is already evident given the presence of Glatorian and Agori and the various creatures that live there in addition to Annona).
  11. I have a question about Magnetism. Why is it that Magnetism is an absorbable element but Gravity is not? I remember the justification for Gravity's non-absorbable nature as being "you wouldn't need to absorb it, since it's almost always present in some amount." Now, I'll admit, I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to magnetic physics (and yes, I know that real-world physics don't always apply in Bionicle, but bear with me here), but wouldn't that same rule apply to magnetism? And if so, then what need is there for Toa of Magnetism to be able to absorb their element?
  12. Well, now that we know what we know about the Red Star, a "Mask of Death" would have been kinda silly in the grand scheme of things.
  13. Hmmm. I thought it was how the Matoran pictured them selfsRight, but if the universe is mostly populated by Metru-build Toa, then most Matoran will likely imagine a Toa to look like something similar.
  14. Maybe the Tryna is a relativey new kind of mask? Like, maybe someone figured out how to make a mask with the power to reanimate all of these new dead bodies that were lying around. Science marches on, I suppose.
  15. Hm......I like it.My friend, you've just been headcanoned.
  16. He probably wouldn't be able to say for sure, considering how busy he is. I mean, he has a kid to look after, Ninjago to write for, his actual job (as Editorial Director, if I recall correctly), and I think he just moved recently, so he still has to get settled in and all that.
  17. Thanks for pulling this together Er, and thanks to Greg for taking the time to answer these questions.
  18. Well, it's a machine, so I do know if I'd say that it has its own "will," but I always envisioned it as more of a containment chamber, since it was made of what? 3-feet-thick Protosteel walls? Something like that.
  19. I seem to remember reading somewhere that after TSO disappeared, the Barraki carried out their advance anyway but were defeated.
  20. Well, to begin I have a question for Erebus. Are you already planning on asking the thing about the Shadowed One yourself? Or, if we want to know that, do we have to re-ask it? That would have been my first question, so I'm not really sure.Regardless, my other question for Greg is:How does the Nuva Cube work? It was created by Artakha and teleported to the Bohrok nest when the Toa Mata formed a Toa Seal around the Bahrag, and has the power to break that Seal...but in a previous quote, it was stated that it could break only that specific Seal. So how does it know the difference between any other Toa Seal and the Seal around the Bahrag, which technically wasn't meant to exist since they should have never been woken up prematurely?EDIT: Thanks, Erebus. Second Question - What have White Teridax and Mazeka been up to ever since the MU shut down?
  21. It does make sense. The Star revives everyone that isn't disintegrated. Stuff like the dead Rahi bodies can probably be considered retconned out.
  22. Not if the body is completely disintegrated, it doesn't. :PMatoro's sacrifice is still intact, as is Toa Ignika's (even though that one was never really in question).However, if it really bothers you that much, then just put it the ol' Fanon Discontinuity file. Just like I did with the notion that Jaller's Crab was left in Mahri Nui. You might try the Saga Guides on Biosector01, but even those are kinda lengthy.
