  1. The spawns of the crazed Skakdi dreams would be beyond useful for any fanfiction written after this point Brings up endless possibilities- though what I'd like to know and hope for is that Greg discloses what some of these creatures are.
  2. 2.5/5, since I just saw your MOC of GLaDos (I lurk in creative outlet too~ Albeit writing instead of BBC, but still~)
  3. Has coloured contact lenses or has some unknown eye disease.
  4. 0/5 I've never seen you before
  5. Oh kami-sama no TPBM speaks more than one language
  6. ....another broken image link. I think I now have an issue to take up with my ISP.
  7. Nope, 100% straight, sorry to disappoint anyone~ TPBM watches anime/has watched anime
  8. At first impression, 0/5 After checking your name change history, 3.5/5 (I remember seeing your name around in ye olde days when Bionicle was still ongoing)
  9. 26. I don't think Turaga were capable of using that Mask, it takes a lot of control- even Vakama as a Toa could not control it. 27. Well, in hindsight, when you look at it, Lhikan did show similar trust in the Toa Metru, getting six random novice Toa to save all of Metru Nui, despite probably knowing them less well than Vakama knew Tahu. 50. From what I've seen around here, they control different-sized particles or something along those lines. 51. I think that's a case of trying to conceal the plot- back in 2003 there was all this mysterious Seventh Toa thing and they didn't want anyone to find out until a certain media release- not sure if the movie or comics were first on that. Labelling him "Toa Takua" would've given away the secret.
  10. If I were Teridax, I'd say Gorast without hesitation. An infinitely loyal servant- I would get along well with that. "Gorast, make me a cup of tea!" "Take the dog for a walk!" "Rob a bank!"
  11. Depending on quantity, probably swim it in and then drown. WWYDI Bionicle returned buuuuut as "Boneheads of Voodoo Island"?
  12. My memory's a little hazy on this- but if I recall correctly there was supposed to be a book in 2007, later scrapped, and was supposed to be Legends #7; though what I don't remember is if all the storyline from it made it into other media, or just some.
  13. Chapter 8 Akata cursed as he trudged through the feet deep snow of Ko-Kohi, taking special care not to get buried in this frosty wasteland. As per usual, there remained a massive snowstorm. He did not know why the Toa of this region had not gotten rid of this raging tempest, he found it highly irresponsible to let it continue. The Toa of Stone now regretted ever following the Turaga’s advice to find the other Toa first, it had led him into the vast cloud of frost that blanketed the region. He was still tired and a little worn out from the fight hours ago, it had drained him of his strength. The warrior had rested since then, but remained somewhat exhausted. He continued reluctantly trudging forward, desperate to continue with his quest. Momentarily losing his footing, Akata tripped and landed face-first into deep snow with an audible groan. Before he could get up, he heard someone speaking. “Who are you? You have no business in this land,” came the voice, harsh in tone. The stone warrior slowly got up onto his knees and looked up to see a being stand right before him. This entity was similar in figure to himself, and was clad in similar armour, though in shades of white and sparkling chrome instead. The mask he bore was different too, with one eyehole being replaced by a mechanical scope of some sort protruding from it. Slowly getting up to his feet, the warrior introduced himself. Offering an outstretched palm to the stranger, the Toa spoke, “They call me Akata, Toa of Stone.” “Kotraka, Toa of Ice. That is what they say I should be, anyway,” he responded, bitterly. Akata was taken aback by the ice Toa’s cold demeanour, and withdrew his palm, before speaking again. “I am sure we’ve all had a rough time the past few hours or days,” he shrugged. “However, I need your help.” “Your desires are of no concern to me. Turn back now, Akata, for this is no place for one such as you.” The icy warrior turned to leave, only to be stopped by the stone Toa, who had Kotraka’s left arm in an iron grip. Kotraka’s eyes narrowed into slits. “Let go.” “Look, I didn’t come all the way here from Po-Metra, tired from defeating Rahkshi threatening the Matoran, getting denied access into the village, only to be rejected by the likes of you.” There was absolutely no disguising the annoyance in his voice, and perhaps the subtlest hint of anger. Kotraka, however, would be unrelenting. “I have other matters to settle. I too, have been outcast by my village, and it is my utmost priority to gain their trust, for they need me more than they can comprehend.” Akata broke into a sheepish grin, and slackened his grip on the Toa’s arm. “Perhaps we have reached a misunderstanding- my task, too, is to protect them, and only by destroying the darkness on this island can that be truly achieved.” Kotraka’s eyes widened. What the bronze armoured hero said made absolute sense. They could protect the Matoran for millennia if they guarded the villages. However, if they were to end the slowly spreading evil, the Matoran would be safe for all eternity. “I cannot deny what you said may be true. I will follow you and assist in completing this task, once Ko-Metra is free from this endless storm,” he coolly replied. Akata was puzzled. “Wait, are you not a Toa of Ice? Can you not control the weather of Ko-Metra?” “My powers have no limits on the natural occurrences of this land, however, this storm is artificial, a creation.” An audible gasp was heard from the Toa. “How did you find out about this?” “My Kanohi mask has the power to see visions containing knowledge I seek, and I now know how to put an end to this living nightmare.” And sometimes even more information than I need, he smiled grimly. Akata was oblivious to Kotraka’s expressions, as he cheerfully exclaimed, “Well then, brother, lead the way. Tonight, we save Ko-Metra, tomorrow, all of Metra Nui!” Kotraka would have preferred another choice of travelling companion, but he was in no position to choose, and the two set off for the village. It was a long arduous trek to their destination, with the harsh winds and poor visibility only contributing to make their tough journey all the more punishing. Many a time, Akata had tripped and fell on the slippery ice, and the cold was beginning to take its toll on the brave Toa. Arriving at the gates of Ko-Metra, Kotraka banged on it with his left fist, calling for attention. Alone, they would ignore him, but perhaps with another Toa in tow, they would be granted access. On the other side of the gate, a group of Ko-Matoran villagers, the Frost Guardians, appeared, sharp spears in one hand and a sturdy shield in the other. What appeared to be the leader, who Kotraka recognised to be Apaku, spoke to the duo. “You are, and always won’t be welcome in Ko-Metra. Even with a friend accompanying you, we will not let you weird types in,” he sneered. “I never knew Ko-Matoran to be this despicable,” Akata shot back, unamused. “Now, will you let us in or do we have to do it ourselves?” The group of Ko-Matoran guards merely stood there, unmoving, only to break out into a chorus of laughter. Once more, Apaku spoke. “Do you think we will let you enter, and what makes you think you can break in, you poor impostors?” he spat. “It’s simple; we’re Toa.” Akata activated his Kanohi Mask. Onewa had informed him the one he bore would greatly increase his already significant natural strength, and with a powerful kick, the stone Toa shattered the gates of Ko-Metra. The group of gathered villagers could only look on, jaws wide open in shock at this awesome display of power. The head guard could only stare at his awestruck comrades, before quickly issuing a command. “Stop stargazing, and take them down!” The Frost Guardians rushed towards them, weapons held aloft, only for them all to be halted in their paths by a wall of solid stone a metre high. The Matoran slowly began trying to climb over it, only to be flash-frozen from neck down by Kotraka. “Sorry, but this is the duty of a Toa,” the icy warrior said to the now furious Apaku, as he turned to leave in the direction of the shrine, with Akata following suit. As the pair approached, they encountered many more Frost Guardians, but Toa Kotraka’s powers had made their journey relatively easy, having encased every guard in ice along the way. The Matoran villagers were proving to be little hindrance to their progress. The two heroes burst into the place, and they witnessed several Matoran paying respects to the statue of a deceased Matoran, Omorta, which also possessed a Kanohi Mask on its face. Also present, to Kotraka’s surprise, was Turaga Nuju. “You are very welcome back, Toa, but please do not disrupt the Matoran honouring their fallen comrade, Omorta. He was very dear to us all, having died reigniting the light of this world.” “I apologise, wise one, but there is something we need to do,” the icy warrior, responded, before slowly ransacking the place. Akata could only look on, wide-eyed, as the chrome warrior threw aside piles of books and tablets, emptying their shelves. “What exactly are you doing?” “Looking for a green precious stone, now help me!” there was no disguising the urgency in his voice. Akata began rummaging around the shelves as well, to the horror of the half dozen or so Matoran gathered there. “Stop! What do you think you’re doing here!” a Ko-Matoran protested, grabbing onto the stone being’s left forearm. The Toa shook him off, and continued his search, as an ever-growing pile of scriptures littered the floor. A few short moments later, the shelf had been completely emptied, and there was nothing to be found. He turned to his partner, only to see he too was empty-handed. “We can’t find it,” Kotraka said through gritted teeth. “But yet, it must be here somehow!” Akata was at a loss for words. He had not experienced the vision, and thus, did not know what to expect. The icy warrior began pacing back and forth across the length of the room, deep in thought. He was searching through every detail of his vision, but yet it contained no explicit location of this item. A place ‘beneath their very masks’, but where? With a start, Kotraka suddenly came to a newfound realisation. The statement could be taken metaphorically, but what if it were to be taken literally? Glancing at the statue, he quickly walked up to it and grabbed its Kanohi Mask with both hands. As the mask came away, beneath it, revealed a glow of sickly green familiar to the icy warrior. Embedded in the forehead of the statue was the glowing olive stone, which pulsed every other second. Evil energy radiated from it, and it sent a chill down the Toa’s spine. Turaga Nuju was taken aback by this discovery, and could only wave his staff in annoyance, spewing words in anger. “How did this end up in Ko-Metra? I demand to know!” the angered Turaga shouted, to no one in particular. Akata shrugged, while Kotraka handed the statue’s mask to him. Using his weapon, he slowly tried to prise the gem from the rock. He chipped away until the gem was loose, and with his other hand, removed it from the likeness of Omorta. However, displacing it simply was not enough, the raging tempest continued to plague Ko-Kohi, and it needed to be destroyed. Placing the item on the floor, he brought down the sharp end of his sword onto the stone, shattering it. As the gem split into several fragments, a loud scream emanated from its components, deafening all in the room, and the Toa dropped to their knees. The ear-shattering noise was replaced by absolute darkness, as the room before them faded away. A pair of disembodied eyes that glowed blood-red appeared before them, and before the gathered Toa, Matoran, and Turaga, it spoke. Its voice was as haunting as the eyes before them, and the Ko-Matoran shivered in fear. I see you have discovered one of my plans, and in doing so, you have revealed yourselves to me. Akata and Kotraka could only look on at the sight before them, but neither were fazed- both were certain it was just a mere vision, and could not harm them. Since you have such courtesy to introduce yourselves, I shall oblige as well. I am Mutunga, and I am happy to assist you….in carving your tombstones. “Well, what a nice guy.” Akata muttered, arms folded. I invite you Toa to leave this island, or you can stay. Stay, and I can add to my collection of preserved bodies. Akata was about to make another sarcastic comment only for the blackness to fade away, replaced by the surroundings of the shrine, and a group of puzzled Matoran now stood before them, all overcome with shock. One pointed his finger accusingly at Kotraka, and in a mixture of anger and fear, spoke. “You brought this on us!” he whimpered, leaning on a companion for support. Akata took a step towards the villagers. “Why you ungrateful-“ He was promptly cut off by the Toa of Ice, who brushed off the claim, only calmly remarking that the weather in Ko-Kohi was good now. Nuju looked at the pair, and gestured for them both to follow him. “What is it that you need us for, Turaga?” the stone Toa inquired. “I cannot say now, as among us, the ears of the shadows are ever-present.” Nuju responded, his calm demeanour long gone. Kotraka asked, “What do you mean?” “There is only one way for that abomination of a stone to enter Ko-Metra, Toa.” His voice had an undertone of worry, and the two Toa were left unnerved. “We have been betrayed.” Review
  14. Some of Teridax's portrayals, I felt, probably didn't do him a lot of justice. His appearances in both Mask of Light and Legends of Metru Nui movies felt rather cliche and extremely cheesy, and nothing like the one present in say, Time Trap.
  15. I'm sure the Hero Factory-Bionicle crossover concept has been beaten to death by now
  16. Chapter 7 has been re-written in entirety, after hearing some comments.
  17. Just something I noticed while scrolling through V3 of the guide- the currency is mentioned and detailed twice, an error? Page 13 and 88 respectively.
  18. Hrm, what if one were to at any point of time, take a device such as a spear of fusion, then fuse an alternate Takanuva with a Core Universe being, then kill said fusion. Would that end up in the Red Star, and as one being, or separate....?
  19. Wait, if Voya Nui dislodged from the Southern Continent and blew through the Great Spirit Robot's body and he died...wouldn't he be out of the Matoran Universe then, or would the Red Star still be able to detect him?
