    I know there is a good Avatar the Last Airbender community here, and any fans please post here. I have an idea that I'm running by FFBuu so as soon as he responds to my PM information will be disclosed. I'll post a new entry with the information, but fans post under this entry.

    To anyone who has read/is reading the Bara Magna Chronicles, some new information as of tonight:
     
    1. 40 chapters is the 2010 storyline. I am on, I believe, the 16th chapter as of today.
    2. The chapters, instead of continuing "Round" is going to change, showing the change in storyline. It becomes "Sermon".
    3. At the least, two short stories will be written and posted as companion storylines to go with the 40 chapters. One is instrumental in bridging the gap between the chapter I wrote yesterday, and the storyline that continues into today's chapter that I'm writing, and beyond to the final chapter. The other is just to bring some characterization that I want to get inside, but hadn't the room to put into actual chapters.
    4. MOCs of most characters were done, and now, the only "unseen" characters will be Certavus and the Lords. Certavus is not the official image in real canon, but when we see the Lords, they will be, most likely. The Sisters of the Skrall will be drawn, not MOCed, most likely.
     
    That's about it.

    Yes, you can. Now, that would be great to put on a resume (sp)... I wonder, should I do it?
     
    Sorry if this counts as religious discussion, in which case, please delete this or notify me so I can delete it admins/mods/anyone with power.

    My blog will soon be going over a full overhaul. Feel free to guess until I have it ready, guess on the theme. I can only do this theme if I can get images though, which seems kind of doubtful at the moment unless I use some untraditional methods...

    I changed my name to _The Drifter_ (Portal reference, a character), my avatar is him, my personal photo will be when I can get another picture of him, I need one of his quotes soon, time to go re-watch episodes, for my sig, and now my blog has been redone with a Portal theme.
     
    I am still Koji though.

    Yes, he's dead, unfortunatly.
    The reason I put this under the epics category is because in my Legacies of the Final Battle I had big plans for him, but want to keep the story true to the actual story, so I can't have him in the final battle.
    Though he will be in the first part, the Phantoka part as an agent, recruiting, etc., he won't have as big a part as I would have liked him to have...

    If you haven't heard, David Tennant is leaving after the four 09 specials. So, 2010 will have a new Doctor.
    Goodbye Tennant, I just hope your replacement is better than you were, more at Eccleston level.

    I have gym class and we're swimming and then math with a test and then lunch. Well my friend and I in both the gym and math class are going to do this tommorow. There's a lot of stuff in the ten to thirteen feet deep water, stuff we were supposed to swim and get and those were thrown too far, so tommorow we can stay in the pool and just dive for that stuff and get a pass to math and take the test later. It'll be great, I hate math and it'll be fun.

    A new movie by Dave Meinstein, finaly he did something after Portal that got approved and is going to happen! And with the return of Portal on June 7th this will be great. I'm going to see this just to see Dave's work again.

    We are making one. It will take up an entire classroom, be space based, and will use land forces to take capital planets. We plan on a political system to hold alliances between planets, use variables like black holes and the sun to be a way to destroy your enemies, use planet resources to make new and custom ships and weapons, etc.
    I will update on Monday if any new information is available since school is canceled tomorrow for the cold, and we don't have school Friday to begin with.

    NOTE: ONLY PACHACAMAC AND I CAN POST IN THIS ENTRY, ANYONE ELSE SHOULD POST IN THE DISCUSSION TOPIC.
     
    This is a contest for Pachacamac; making combiners that never were that there should be like the Rahi-Nui, Toa Nidhiki, Lariska and more. Here are some suggestions quoted from his topic:
     

     
     
    Other suggestions:
     

     
    Rules:
     
    1. The combiners have to be actual characters/creatures/machines/etc. that have appeared in the Bionicle story; no fan mocs or anything like that. I'm sure everyone knows that, but I just want to make sure.
     
    2. Only sets from the same year or from the same story arc of years can be combined for the contest; in other words, no mixing between 2001-2003, 2004-2005, and 2006-2007 sets. Any sets that are in those particular years can be put together, but nothing else except masks; Volitak can be used in the Nidhiki MOC for this contest and anything else like that needed.
     
    I may have some more later, but that's it for now.
     
    Any suggestions that aren't listed above should be put in the next entry.
     
     
     
    Deadline: To be determined.
     
    Prize: 1 winner from each year will be put in my blog in the contest winners image slot.
     
    Rounds: Rounds will be determined based on the number of entrants.
     
    Good luck.

    A teacher at my high school died this morning. I guess last night his car was hit by a train and he died at I think one A.M. this morning. A history teacher, I don't know what he specifically taught. I did not have him, but the teachers were all in tears this morning along with many students. This is why I hate Freshmen, they don't care about this stuff because they didn't have him. Just because of that, they don't care. That's why we all hate them. He was in his mid 30's, mid or early, and had five young children. I believe yesterday was one's birthday too.
     
    We mourn his passing.

    Anyone know where to find any? I'd like one on my PC and I can't find any, I'd love to have one, maybe like an actual Deathnote instead of a cursor, or really anything that can be found. If anyone can help I'd appreciate it.

    Well I decided to post a part of my new short story Defection since it'll be a while until I finish since I have other things to work on and not having a computer at my home with internet is a problem for posting as well. So here's what I have so far of Defection which is my take of Nidhiki's story.
     
     

    Defection 
    A hideous green four legged two clawed creature stood on a beach, looking at its reflection in the ocean, tears running down its eyes. It wasn’t always like that as it remembered back to a few months ago…..
     
    Toa Nidhiki had dodged another dagger from a female Dark Hunter who wore black Vortixx like armor and resembled one, but was of another species. “Odd how one can look like a Vortixx, a greedy species and yet fight for another and get no money, I guess that’s the difference between Vortixx and this species.” He told himself, knocking one out the air with his scythe.
     
    “I can’t beat this woman in this manner, I need a new plan.” Nidhiki told himself, jumping up onto the side of a Le-Metru building, digging the blade of his scythe into it to hold himself.
     
    She threw another dagger at him and this time he pushed off the wall, getting above the dagger. He pushed the end of his scythe’s handle into the ring at the end of the dagger and had a hold on it.
    He snapped the end of his scythe forward, hurtling the dagger forward back at the female Hunter. She couldn’t dodge and was struck on her right arm, the arm she was using the best accuracy and power with.
     
    She tore it out, having felt greater pain in her time, but the pain wasn’t the point, it was that her aim would be worse then. She took a defensive position, her left dagger raised to cover her body in case of attack.
     
    Nidhiki smiled and jumped at her, bringing his scythe up and brought the blade down. He pushed the end of it the handle up and knocked the dagger away so he could bring the blade back down with great strength.
     
    He slammed it down to feel it hit steel. He looked and saw a sword blocking and looked to see a red hand holding it. “What is it Lhikan?” Nidhiki asked, angered as the Hunter fled.
     
    “You were going to kill her weren’t you?” Lhikan asked and Nidhiki started to walk away from him. “Answer me Nidhiki, I see you’re troubled and I want to help.”
     
    “You can help by leaving me alone! What would we do if we didn’t kill them?” Nidhiki yelled back, uneasy silence following as he waited for an answer.
     
    “We can show them the errors of their ways, we can imprison them.” Lhikan replied, but the answer didn’t suit Nidhiki and he slipped away using his Volitak.
     
     
    Nidhiki had walked for some time and saw another Dark Hunter standing on the rooftop near him, but he hadn’t been spotted. It was a black Skakdi with a drill in hand. Nidhiki raised his scythe up and started to generate his wind energies.
     
    “Show yourself Toa.” The Skakdi said and Nidhiki realized he could be seen. “Thermal Vision.” The Skakdi said, telling Nidhiki how he had been seen.
     
    “I guess I can go head to head with you then.” Nidhiki said, smiling at the prospect of a good fight as opposed to an assassination type attack. Nidhiki jumped up as Reidak jumped down, his drill aimed at Nidhiki.
     
    Nidhiki slashed and the blade was driven into the drill, stopping his swing and the rotation. They were both locked in combat; their weapons colliding and neither could push the other back.
     
    Reidak had considerable strength, but Nidhiki was keeping him back with his wind energies. Nidhiki pushed the end of the handle of the scythe forward and hit Reidak in the head, stunning him momentarily.
     
    He whipped his scythe back around and aimed the blade an Reidak’s neck, ready to take it off with one swipe. Nidhiki missed and noticed he sank and saw the drill in the ground, turning it to quicksand, sucking him in too fast to eliminate Reidak.
     
    Reidak smiled and punched Nidhiki in the face, knocking him back, putting him on his back, sinking him in harder, but dead sooner.
     
    Nidhiki remained calm, he knew panicking would kill him and he created a vacuum above him, sucking him towards it and out of the quicksand. Reidak put his drill where the body would be momentarily and plunged it, ready to make contact and kill the Toa.
     
    Nidhiki swiftly moved the end of his scythe’s handle to that spot and knocked the drill of target. Nidhiki used that moment to levitate before Reidak and deliver a punch of his own to the Skakdi’s face.
     
    Reidak got up and jumped at Nidhiki only to meet the end of his scythe again. As he was struck in the face, Nidhiki got down and used Reidak’s weight to propel him forward and into a building.
     
    Reidak surprisingly got up, still giving his sadistic grin. “This isn’t good, if that couldn’t put him down for at least a minute, how am I going to stop him without killing him?” Nidhiki asked himself.
     
    He then remembered, that’s what Lhikan didn’t want him to do, kill his opponent, but he didn’t need Lhikan’s ways and he wasn’t around. He pointed the blade of his scythe at Reidak and ran at him, fully intent on ending the Dark Hunter’s life.
     
    “Hm, kill him, I really don’t care.” A voice said and Nidhiki and he turned, seeing a red Skakdi approaching with a gun in hand, a Lava Launcher. “Hakkan, shut up.” Reidak said and got up.
     
    “Two Skakdi, fun.” Nidhiki said, the smile from deciding to kill Reidak still on his face.

    Two reasons to watch Decade, despite only seeing Ryuuki.
     
    1. Diend
    2. The Shinkenger team up.
     
    Diend wins this, despite Shinkenger being amazing.
     
    Diend is just that awesome.

    Just some new information:
     
    Story:
     
    You work for DATS (or some other organization) which gives you a Digivice of you choice/design. You are sent to the Digital War to participate in a war, with an army of Rookies with about three generals, Garurumon (sp), Greymon and another Champion level. You Spirit Evolve into Legendary Warriors (only the first few members will) or another Digimon and fight on. Every enemy you defeat and scan the data of becomes one of your soldiers.
     
    You are occasionaly sent back to the real world via portals that open and you have to live your life there, while you're in the Digital World you have a "clone" from the organization that lives your life for the time. Eventually another portal will open and you return, though random events happen, your army could be wiped out, etc.
     
    Digimon:
     
    The first members can have Legendary Warrior spirits since only about five will be available and I'll have one coughspiritofwaterLakdreimoncough. Anyone else can become any Digimon they want, though it will take a different, more human form and must be a Rookie or lower.
     
    Map:
     
    About seven to ten cities on the map that we'll be on, about five locations total, so about fifty towns total. Each town has a Champion as a general, then Ultimate, then maybe Mega. The leader of each map will be a stronger Digimon, and after that Digimon's defeat, we move onto another group of towns in the same sector, kind of confusing because of what I previously stated.
    Every once in a while, a Legendary Warrior on the enemy side will engage in battle with the players.
     
    That's about it.

    From "Supernova" episode 2, "God Are You Out There?". I should have taken a screenshot of the magazine, but they were looking at a wormhole through the satelite while watching the Third Doctor, it mixed together, and made it look like God's face.
    "Wouldn't have been mistaken with Tom Baker."
    Great line.

    Out of boredom starting last Friday, and continuing last night and today, I have MOCed the characters of Double: Crime and the City.
     
    Complete:
     
    Protagonists:
    Linke
    Recht
    Gahla
    Derr
    (can't name since the character appears later on)
     
    Antagonists:
    Unnamed avian being
    Member of Lariska's species
    Skakdi of Lightning (custom face and spine included, instead of reusing Thok or Vezok spines)
     
    Partially complete:
    Recht/Linke Toa form.*
     
     
    *I'll probably order some masks from an online store, and recolor them to make them two tone, since that's where I'm stuck at. That, and the torso was a pain, but it works well enough.
     
     
    I plan on MOCing the Dark Hunter from Day One, and other DH who appear as it goes on, as well as various Matoran we meet on the cases.
     
    Hopefully the first pictures will be up by Sunday.

    I have finally named the full version of my short story, Double. As you can probably see, it keeps the "Double" title, but expands on it more, to show what the epic is about.
     
    Crime.
     
    It's a unique epic for me to write, to feature crime as the main purpose. A typical arc involves some form of crime taking place, and the investigation into it. That, as well as the "double" which is the meaning of the title. The power that Linke and Recht have through the Duos Stones, to merge into one single Toa and do battle (though combat chapters are actually rare. Most chapters focus on crime, as opposed to fusion combat).
     
    Some basic updates that I'll share right now:

    I will begin posting it as soon as a few things get run through C.I.R.C.L.E. and hopefully, approved. If not, I'll have to rewrite chapters or revise articles to try to get it to work in the C.I.R.C.L.E. universe. The main protagonist is Linke. The character of Recht has his starring moments, but Linke is the main star of the epic. Each chapter is titled without "chapter", but rather, "Day". The short story is actually going to be reposted and titled "Day One". The second chapter takes place the next day, and takes on the title "Day Two", and so on. Days will skip around, to pass time on Doppel Nui and the storyline. At the moment, I predict 40 chapters spanning 100 days. I believe I'm on Day Seventeen right now, which is about the tenth chapter. There will be a small, side epic, composed of approximately five to seven chapters. This will be fundamental to understanding the entire storyline behind Double, but not a mandatory read. It's the origin story that we briefly glimpsed at the start of Day One, showing us how Linke and Recht became a team, got a hold of the Duos Stones, and arrived at Doppel Nui. As seen in "Day One", we meet Gahla, and her unnamed partner-named Derr (thanks to Toa Ausar for that name). I confirm that they make up half of the initial main cast of characters (Linke and Recht, of course, being the other half). As we go on, we will meet more characters who will join the main cast. This, however, will be sporadic and no characters are safe (a practice I started in Bara Magna Chronicles).  
    And that's about it.
