Fear not, for my Nomination is here! I, Kohila, hereby second fellow BZPer Inferna Firesword for consideration, with examples of her work contained in Inferna's Library 2.0.So far, I've not read too many good Epics, so I checked out her stuff and liked it. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Spirit Fable Review ***

I vote "AYE" to all stated Articles. I'm sorry Tarth, but I know that I have 2 non-BZPower contact sources you could've used, and I bet that most other "C.I.R.C.L.E. Members" do, too. Since you could browse the Forums but not make posts, you still could've viewed our Profiles and gotten them. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Spirit Fable Review ***

The helmet was horrifying to make, and even worse to keep together. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Spirit Fable Review ***

Believe it or not, that MOC was a 3-minute free-for-all for me. I disassembled Metus, Atakus and Raanu for him, plus a few pieces of my own. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Spirit Fable Review ***

Now, Dorek-- It's every man for himself. ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Spirit Fable Review ***

As of now, I am re-kindling my PBZP line. Anyone who wants one can either leave a comment in this thread or drop me a PM. Any that are requested between now and Sunday afternoon can be started immediately, and any after will be started the next time I might sneak on the Forums to glance around. All I request is free reign on the Element, Kanohi and appearence of the MOC. Trust me, I won't make you hideous. So please, give me something to do on my break, okay? ~Kohilå*** Spirit Fable Epic ~ Spirit Fable Review ***

Hello and thank you for reading this Blog Entry. When I first joined BZPower, I sought it as a way to help me cope through the constant bickering between my parents. Believe me, it worked. So I kept using the site through the years and have grown to love it. Unfortunately, BZPower has become the problem now instead of the solution. It is now the year 2009 and too much of my time is spent here. So, I've decided to take a short leave for a month or so before I feel like I can exist without this site. I have a bunch of different things that I aim to do before I leave: Finish the redoing of my room, improve school, and most importantly reconcile with my mother. The first of those is the least difficult. My bed has already been moved, I need to clean my floor, clean up my MOCing station, clean the closet for my bin of LEGO SYSTEM parts, move the mini-fridge up there from the garage ( B) ), and install some shelving units. THe second is a bit harder. School had never been my strong suit because of the office feel. I normally like to do my schoolwork on the back porch in the fall or spring or my the fire during the winter. However, most of my time is spent on the computer instead of my school books. The last of those remains to be the biggest of my overall problems. During the time I'm not spending in my room or in my school books will be sitting outside in deep meditation and thought on how to best handle the situation. My current solution can be called a chemotherapy or double-edged sword; I've stopped all visitation with her to let wounds heal but also deprived myself of half of me, which is never a good thing to do. I'll admit, she's never been a loving mother and I've never been the best son but I hope to try and salvage our relationship. That is to say, if she wants me as her son anymore. My previous attempts to regain her as my mother have been directly futile and unfortunatly I have to wait until she realizes that her hate for my father has grown so rampant that my sister and I have been permanatly scarred from the experience instead of blowing us off like the selfish person she is; a real-life Cinderella story. For example, if I were to live with her instead of my father, I would be sitting in a "Juvenille Reform School" for the rest of my teenage years because I still loved my father. But I digress. So, a month's leave from BZPower. I will continue to use the site for about three days. Sunday will be the last for a while. If you wish to contact me during my leave, I'll be using IM sites. My AIM is TDWP1993 and my Yahoo! is TDWP_1993. ~Kohilå

I'd first like to cast my ballots: I vote "NAY" to Article 42 because the power will not work for everyone who can wear a Kanohi. I vote "AYE" to Articles 93-98 because of the effort put into them and their sheer ingeniousness. Second, here's a better explanation for "The Shadow Realm" that shows almost no religious ties: Within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe", we know that there are three different parts of existence. The first is the physical world, where everything is how we perceive it. When a being dies, their spirit doesn't naturally pass like how we do. Instead, they enter a void very similar to "limbo". This state of existence has been named "The Shadow Realm". The state between life and death, a being's spirit lives in the physical world essentially as a ghost. Due to the loss of their physical body, however, they cannot affect the physical realm much at all without sheer exertion of willpower. The final stage of life is "The Underworld"; total leaving of the terrestrial plain and passing on to the afterlife. It is unknown at this time when and where the journey from "The Shadow Realm" to "The Underworld" occurs. As stated in recent Articles, there are two unnatural ways of cheating the rules. One of those are "The Ţuat", six underground Kingdom capitals home to rare Matoran Tribes. Within each Ţuat are gateways from the physical realm to "The Shadow Realm" accessible by simply walking through it. However, using these portals only guarantee a one-way trip and the being cannot use the gateway to re-enter the physical realm. The second exception is the only way from "The Shadow Realm back to the physical world. In the underground recesses of the Island of Yezo Nui, there lies a centuries-lost sanctum dedicated to the forces of life and death. This shrine holds the ability to bring a deceased to life once more through a precise execution of steps involving the forces of good and evil. If a spirit that is lingering within "The Shadow Realm" is able to will a being to do their bidding, they can be resurrected during a ceremony preformed at the shrine. Hopefully this will help to reduce any doibt on the matter. ~Kohilå

At this point, I think that it's best to make all of his votes null up until when he returns. If he has no excuse, then "Probation" should be in order. ~Kohilå

I vote "NAY" to Article 73a. I don't see why this is even needed. Next, I vote "AYE" to Articles 77a & 88-91 because each Article fit well within "The C.I.R.C.L.E. Universe". Last, I vote "NAY" to Article 92 because the species seems very useless; As already said, they just seem like Glatorian. ~Kohilå

But would a Toa of 'Rahi' create Rahi? I'm hoping not. No, a "Toa of Rahi" can't actually create Rahi. ~Kohilå

I'd like to ask two questions to you all: Why is "Fire" not called "Fire Control"? Why is "Water" not called "Water Control"? It's the sole sake of what is practical. So although "Fire" and "Fire Control" are both correct, the shortened "Fire" is better usage, so it is with "Rahi" and "Rahi Control" I hope you all see why the shortening of the elements was needed. ~Kohilå

I must admit, making the winning Certavus MOC is proving to be difficult, especially without the much needed instructions. And so, I list parts I still need to finish Certavus: White Technic Motorcycle Fairing 4 x 3 x 3 With Axle ~ x1 (Might be getting from Toa_Ausar.) Silver BIONICLE Weapon Spined Long Blade ~ x1 White BIONICLE Kanohi Mask Miru Nuva ~ x1 White Technic 1 x 2 Axle Connector ~ x1 Blue Technic 1 x 2 Axle Connector ~ x1 White BIONICLE Toa Inika Upper Torso ~ x1 Blue System Round 1 x 1 Plate ~ x6 White BIONICLE Toa Inika Foot Clawed ~ x2 Silver Technic Axle And Pin Connector Perpendicular ~ x2 Blue Technic 1 x 2 Thin Liftarm ~ x4 White Technic 1/2 Bush ~ x2 Blue Technic 1 x 3 Thin Liftarm ~ x1 Trans. Medium-Blue BIONICLE Glatorian Head ~ x1 Another Metus, perhaps?) White BIONICLE Fist With Axle Hole ~ x2 (Aforementioned Metus) I am pretty sure that I have the rest of the parts, though I won't know Fer Sure *hinthint*EW*hinthint* until the instructions are released. Which I hope is soon. ~Kohilå

First off, these pictures were taken in my mom's garrage, a place where antifreeze should be. Second, the container for the antifreeze is made of extremely thick plastic and has a lid that is Karz to open. So I highly doubt that the cats will develop knife-sharp teeth, or grow apposable thumbs. ~Kohilå

Enjoy. ~Kohilå

Can you say "Sweet!"? ~Kohila

Serious question guys-- Do you think that I'm getting a bit too deep into my personal life with my Blog Entries? I really want to know lest this Blog becomes extremely awkward to read. ~Kohilå

Just felt like throwing that out there. ~Kohilå

STUPID?!?!?!?! >=O You, sir, have no musical taste. [/LOL] ~Kohilå

I have changed my vote for Article 68. ~Kohilå

Life on Repeat by Kohilå A song on repeat played for hours and hours grows boring as time passes; a life on repeat follows suit, never ceasing to make you dreary. Was there a time in life that was once so different, always changing and morphing to your desire? What changed reality? What card was played against you to make life so dull? A choice? An action? A two-sentence conversation with the wrong person? What caused your life to be so vibrant that faded into the sky? Questions unanswerable. A tragedy into turmoil, a happiness into dull enjoyment. If you feel this way, you're not alone. Many suffer the constant déja vū. Staring through the glass, we see our past. Such simpler times, such innocense. Will you find the repeat button? Will you turn it off? With this I tell you: Find the rock. Shatter the glass. Break free of the prison you put youself in. Start over, come back and be welcomed by those who missed you. Love. Live. ***** Just something I whipped up because I'm feeling a bit poetic. ~Kohilå

Revenant Hunting A RuneScape Tale It was a long day on world 56; I had just finished gathering the Blood Diamond (with help from my friend Reload217) for "Desert Treasure" and was about to finish up some loose ends on other Quests. While banking in the swamp town of Canifis, Reload217 told me about a band of us going to hunt the ghostly and powerful Revenant Warriors. Naturally, I was about to say no. I had bad experiences with them in the past while doing various things in the Wilderness. Surely I was not about to willingly fight them! But something inside of me eased my stress. After a debate with myself, I agreed. ***** I switched to World 60 and gathered good armor to range the foul shades. I equiped full Red Dragonhide, my Cape of Legends, my Painted Rune Kitesheild, my Helm of Neitiznot and lastly my Bone Crossbow given to me by a Dorgeshunn named Zanik. I filled my inventory with some Prayer Potions and a few Cooked Sharks, in case my health was to fail. I gathered some necessary runes and teleported to the busy city of Ardougne. We all met up at the bank in the north section of town. I noted all of the members on the team: Eeyorerox10 who was a very good character, Kardas58 who was to be our bullet sponge, Saramesois who was dressed in almost the same armor as me and lastly Reload217 who also accompanied us. After making sure that we were all prepared, we ventured behind the Ardougne Castle and pulled the Wilderness Lever, teleporting us next to the Mage Arena. We headed east to the common area that the revenants are located at. We waited in the Rogue's Casle, eager to strike when danger came. We waited. And waited. We swapped some meaningless conversation to pass the time. Then, a Revenant Vampire appeared outside of the Castle. We struck. We valiantly slayed the Level 76 with ease. We high-fived, happy that we emerged victorious. Unfortunately, our celebration was to be short lived. The horrifying Level 303 Chaos Elemental hovered in from the southwest. it attacked us all with a barrage of magic attacks, freezing magic, and teleother spells. After doing barely any damage, we retreated to the Rogue's Castle once more. We searched the castle and counted: 1... 2... 3... 4... Where's Kardas58? We panicked, wondering where he went off to. The group of us split in two, leaving Reload217 and I to find them via ancient magick teleport points. We hopped from area to area, unable to find him. Reload217 and I eventually went back to the Rogue's Castle, only to find Eeyorerox10 and Saramesois mourning the death of our friend. After spamming a incantation of constant "@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@", we resurrected him. We all explored the Castle a bit and talked about random things. Heck, Reload217 finally discovered that Saramesois was a dude. We enjoyed the dangerous game of risking our lives. Suddenly and without warning, Eeyorerox10 logged out, so the four of us set off to make another attempt at vanquishing the Chaos Elemental. We ultimately failed and retreated off to the east. We all explored the ruins of the Dragonkin Fortress and picked up a stragler named Tim_112111. We all then proceeded to explore the terrain a bit. We encountered a few Revenants and skillfully ended their existence. Eeyorerox10 logged back in, joining the party of now six. Life was good. Unfortunately, we all logged out one by one until me, Eeyorerox10 and Saramesois were left. Eeyorerox10 said his goodbyes and I followed suit. My hunting was over; And so I recall this tale to you of our grand and noble venture. Honestly, it was much less than noble, leaving you all to think we are insane. ***** Just recalling an hour and a half long trek that I and a bunch of other RuneScape-playing BZP'ers did. Comments pl0x! ~Kohilå

Whoops; It seems like I just lied. Anyways, this Blog Entry serves as a question: What can I do to improve My Blog?I'd really like to know. ~Kohilå

I vote "AYE" to Articles 80-87. To tell you the truth, they all seem very interesting and might be utilized in my stories... ~Kohilå
