You can see tensions rising in the marketplace between two main parties, Invade and Not Invade. Let's say that the ruling party decides to invade Mata Nui, perhaps a large group will rise up and attempt to remove that party from power. It doesn't have to be for profit or maybe it could. Again, I do not want Ahrusa to instigate it, as it's against her character.

I was referring to the more "Morally Ambiguous" members. Seeing as this conversation is going nowhere, let's just say I would like a major conflict to be instigated on the archipelago, perhaps by members of the Fursic clan.

I'm just projecting the consequences of dividing the empire, besides the Fursic's despise the Umbraline and what they lack in manpower they make up in deceit and cunning. They will find a way to spin this in their favor.

Point taken, but honestly would that surprise anyone? I'm still looking for a coup, regicide or no regicide.

Set them against the Umbralines, then kill them. The Rora will be dead, and the Fursic can claim that they avenged her death.

Then why not avoid the meat sheild? Or enlist the Piraka?

You'd think id be dead wouldn't you. Unkown to our heros, Halo casted stop time at the last second and put the poor Lord Regend in his place. He then proceeded to slit the firesquad's throats very slowly. He followed and eventually killed Toa Onaku by slipping poison in his drink. He also stabbed The Dappper Man through the eye, then slowly pulled it out. His remains were soon found in an incinerator by cleaning staff. My Mask!

That would be very mean and make them baaaad people. They do have an established history of attempting to do the former, but the latter is just an idea that could be interesting.

Who else thinks the Fursic are going to take advantage of an Empire divided and stage some grand plan to oust Clan Umbraline from power? Or maybe assassinate the Rora Dishonored style? To be Honest, I just want the Fursic's to have a competent plot going on during this new arch. Vox, what about a "Gman" so to say? So, who's Freeman?

Please take care of yourself and get some well deserved rest. I enjoy Mata Nui Weekly quite a bit and Bzpower wouldn't be the same without it. I know that sounds selfish, but get well soon, K?

I cast devouring swarm on you, distracting you for long enough for me to activate bend time level two where I proceed to fire all ten of my explosive bullets at you. Needless too say, your dead before your body parts hit the floor. My Mask.

But then there's a chance that you couldn't make that character a Toa at all.

IC: Athiel "According to the "Legend" so to say, you will find great fortune. Also, even of it's not up to snuff he will also get the adventure he seeks. I believe I had the exact same conversation with you and Qyntar." Athiel adjusted him pillow, trying to find a more comfortable position, but soon gives ups, deciding to sit instead. "It also said that the Keystones would guide us, so I expect they interlock or something of the same effect."

IC: Athiel "Actually, like Vrina said, why don't you join us after were released?. You said that this job was a temporary one, and what we find will be far more than you are paid here, even when split among the four of us. There's sure to be action, adventure, and maybe even a few odd jobs. However, you'd be away from here for a good amount of time, so id recommend saying goodby to any friends you may have here, assuming you go of course. Where must venture to the four other Koros, bar Ta-Koro, and find the keystones hidden there. We have yet to find the one located here so I skipped to Ta-Koro and retrieved that one first. I'm getting ahead of myself, you haven't agreed yet. What say you?" OOC: Overexplination, yet underexplained.

I'm this close to making my own Desaka character to mix things up by shouting about war and such. Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close. The Biohipies will find you. They will smoke weed on you lawn and protest. Hopefully war does not come to pass. But if it does, with the empire divided I foresee a coup courtesy of Clan Fursic.

I third the cube idea, but triangles would be interesting too.

IC: Ahrusa She listened to the conversations that followed, intrigued by what was said. The parties involved all brought up good points but the Princess had won in Ahrusa's opinion. But still, she pondered on what the "Menti", as we commonly refered to her now, was trying to instigate. An odvious answer would be expansion, but there was something else. Like a chisel driving apart rock as it is struck. Tension among those in the crowd was easily noticed, and sides were taken. Like she was trying to create conflict among us. This seemed like something my own clan would try to pull. Still, it seemed like these were not her own words, but that of another who would prefer to stay shrouded. Ahrusa rose up, preparing to speak. She lowered her hood, preparing to address Yumiwa, albeit briefly, but it was practically demanded of anyone addressing a member of the royal family." Wise words Crown Princess, I would expect nothing less from the daughter of our fair Rora." She paused for a moment, turning towards Nihi. "I have been considering your role in this "Menti". You're words have only created conflict among your sisters, or maybe there not your words. Perhaps you speak for another in their stead?" She knew she was being bold asking so directly, but now that the idea was out there the "Menti" had little choice. Ahrusa stared up at her, waiting for an inevitable response.

I was talking about the archipelago, but I should have specified. While we have been speculating in the events to come we have not been pushing the plot forward.

IC: Athiel "We'll wait to be released. It dose not seem that speed is of the essence. So, would you like to tell your story?" Athiel was feeling a little tired, having not slept for a while. Hunger was also felt as he had neglected to eat Korru's food. He laid back down on his bed, adjusting his pillow until it was comfortable.

Now, how about we get back to the role playing.

*Raises hand* I conduct myself in such a manner here anyways, so I might as well agree. Besides, Bionicle has always been about creating epic stories for ourselves and having fun in my opinion.

I would suggest a general operating out of each Koro, with an elected commander in cheif located at Kini-Nui.

Either way we play this, it will be will interest to see how this will all pan out. Assuming war does come to pass, with the empires forces divided, a coup could easily be staged. That could be interesting to role play, be the results good or ill. Political conflict will be interesting, and soon factions could form among the clans.

We can still kill a family or two.. Yes please.

Exactly. There will not be a war. Makuta or something will rise and crush us all. REPENT! The end is near!Because a PC vs PC war is a logistical and rules nightmare. That'll show those Dasaka and their false religion. But seriously, the projected culture shock would be awesome to witness, maybe.
