Eyru Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 IC: Isfel grinned roguishly. "Secrets, you want? Well, in my experience, the best way to find things out is to live life. Explore enough, and you'll figure it out." He then tilted his head inquisitively, seemingly just noticing Avya's armor colors. "Say, what sort of Toa are you?I don't think I've seen that element before."He asked.IC (Avya)I looked down at my armour, which shone, white and gold, in the reddish light. What sort of Toa was I? My mind flashed back to the haunting memory of a burning village, of screaming Matoran, wooden huts and metal bodies consumed in the embrace of hungry flames.From the little I knew of Toa, each one had control over some elemental power. I could only guess at mine, though fire seemed a likely choice. Ta-Koro's ever-present heat caressed my cheek, drawing me back to the feeling of hot air and smoke surrounding me as I watched the village burn. Yes, fire seemed a likely choice... but i couldn't know for sure."I- I don't really know," I replied. "I can't remember, and I've never tried to use my element."There were mulitiple reasons for that. First of all, I didn't know how. The idea that i could control an element was alien to me; I had no sense of power whatsoever. Secondly, the idea of attempting to harness my power terrified me, to be honest. If I couldn't control myself, the end result might be as terrible as the events in the memory that still stuck with me, reminding me of the dangers of being a Toa.

Vezok's Friend Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 IC: Vinathli & Jilsud, Ta-KoroJilsud walked through the streets. Though the word 'walk' didn't really do his locomotion justice. He practically danced around and over obstacles, people, and the occasional Rahi, giving little comments about everything and everyone. Vinathli stared at everything coldly, walking in brisk, measured steps.Soon, they reached a small, empty (save for it's owner/operator and staff) restuarant, The Lava Hawk. Waving at the owner, who grimaced in return, Jilsud sat down at a small table, grinning at Kohra and Vinathli. "See? Nice and private." IC:"Quite so." Kohra agreed. "Very well then." the Vortixx said. "Here's what you can help me with: I need to get into the guard-post at the cablecar where they connected Ta- and Ko-Koro. For that I will need a distraction of at least 15 minutes. Think you can do that?" Kohra asked Vinathli. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunflower Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 IC: RehlicNow, the Iroiit's Matoran wasn't the best, but he was sure someone what just said, "Four armed golden creature", and Rehlic was pretty sure that meant him.

Tabby: Toa of Cats Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 IC: Miraul turned to his team, and said,"Now that we've taken care of the crazy crossbowman, I think we ought to split up to resupply and gather information. Takamaz, Vilak check with the guard and see if they know anything about the Matatu. Divan, your calm head makes you good for checking around with the shadier locals. I'll go see about some equipment-maybe we can find something useful around here. Axana, Hikari, see if you can find us a place to eat.Meet me back here in about an hour. Divan, take your time if you need it. Those shady types work on their own timetables." ----Miraul was heading over towards an weapons shop when he noticed a gold-armored being walking around. The armor color was insignifigant, but something else was. Four arms-it made names pop into Miraul's head. Ironically, there were four of them. Thykius. Akami. Dekai. Anzaros. The last one sounds more like something other than a person's name, though.Miraul turned to the being, and said,"Excuse me, but what's your name?" The look on his face was one of puzzlement, trying to figure out what was bringing back the memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunflower Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 IC: RehlicThe Iroiit stopped his waving as another being stopped to talk to him. What was he supposed to do...?

Tabby: Toa of Cats Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 IC:" Excuse me for asking, but what species are you, and do you know anyone by the names of Thykius, Akami, Dekai or something about something called an Anzaros? My apologies for bombarding you with strange questions, but you seem to have sparked some kind of memory in my limited knowledge about my past." Miraul continued, his puzzlement still continuing when he asked the questions, but disappearing from his face when he made the apology. ----Hikari turned to Axana, and said, "I've been thinking-I haven't really been well informed of the Rahi on this island, and taking the time to get to know them would be time consuming. It might be more practical to change my Kanohi to something easier to use. I'm thinking that a Mask of Growth or a Mask of Quick Travel might work well. Do you have any ideas?"----Takamaz inquired of a Guard member if any Toa of Lightning like he mentioned had caused trouble here in the past few months. The answer was that at least one had attacked the Matoran seemingly at random before making off with several valuable items and a large quantity of stolen widgets. The Guard had failed to fight him off or track him down, but believed that he might have fled to Xa-Koro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
