shadow pridak money gang Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Pretty sure that even if Utu figured out Angel wasn't Dorian at this point, he wouldn't care.I thought you knew Utu better than that.Although I must admit, he's been pretty chill lately.I know Utu well enough to know that he won't kill a potential asset. As long as Tuara stays alive and Angel stays cool, I reckon Utu would leave him alive and in working order.-Teezy ＳＡＹ ＩＴ ＯＮＥ ＭＯＲＥ ＴＩＭＥ ＴＥＬＬ ＭＥ ＷＨＡＴ ＩＳ ＯＮ ＹＯＵＲ ＭＩＮＤ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
They Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Hey, having just some crazy usage of iron-element, I'm gonna' jump in and throw a wrench (steel, of course) at the whole shebang from pages past. How much iron is actually in the surface of the island? It's a sandy place, this mata-nui. Iron would be in itty-bitty fragments that need plenty of time to form. Everyone is suggesting half a minute to form a sword or something like that. I personally think that amount of time is ridiculous. Elemental powers, as EW stated and I agree with, are deadly yes, but not used that way. Also, it may just be me, but canon characters rarely did anything at the same time as using there elemental powers save some mild struggling with strangleholds or falling off cliffs. My point being, it takes serious mental exertion for even the best of toa to wield their elemental powers at the fullest. Now, back to the iron thingy. Iron, once formed should stay the way it is, I can agree with that. It's a metal, and once it's been beaten into shape (or compressed into shape by elemental power) I'd think it'd have a pretty stable structure. What I don't find plausible is the ability to create ANYTHING of size within a miniscule of time such as a minute, since there's very little iron to be found in the surface dirt when compared to other things. Yes, there is definitely iron in dirt, just not much percentage-wise. SO, the iron has to float up from the ground (levitation time) and from inside the earth (burrowing time) to assemble particle-by-particle into whatever is to be created. When looked at it this way, I can only see Fe-toa creating things of any substance after a long period of time, several minutes or so. Repairing a weapon made of iron would be a cinch -- there's iron right there to simply mold -- yet building something from scratch just seems ridiculous in the heat of a battle to me (unless you're fighting on an iron catwalk. In which case my argument is null and void). So, what if iron toa carried around iron sticks or balls (like The Brutal Bard) and simply reshaped them in a moments notice. That would make more sense then pulling the iron ore, omitting the slag, and creating a weapon -- especially a weapon as refined as a katana (sorry Krayz, had to throw that one in) -- from the dirt around.that's my steel wench. I'd really like not getting the toolbox thrown back at me. http://www.bzpower.com/board/index.php?showtopic=9733&page=2&do=findComment&comment=546628 Link for the BZPRPG 2013 arc profiles.

otter Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) Although, it's generally stated that Toa of Iron can create Iron themselves. But, this idea of the stick/ball of iron just to mould works rather well with making a weapon at a moment's notice-just reshape it. That doesn't expend your elemental energy as much.I'd say we should go with that.EDIT: Good god, what is leading this think-tank doing to me?

Krayzikk Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Well, to be more specific, when I say katana, I mean the shape. Obviously making a true katan takes more than what a Toa could reasonably do. The general shape is not.And honestly, I think that most people underestimate how much elemental energy it takes to make formations of metal. Hence why in that same fight, it has only occurred a total of twice. Any character of mine that will be doing more than that, will have metal to work with.For example, when Blade ambushed two characters, he specifically led them to an ambandoned mine, where he had more to work with. And Brukin has thick metal armor to give him material to work with. On this eve, the thirtieth anniversary of that first colony, many are left to wonder; is the world fast approaching a breaking point?

Palm Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Angelus' only use is handling Tuara. And what Utu has been suspecting might occur which is Tuara bringing Salamander into the mix. Angelus is supposed to be the last chance Utu would have to keeping her away from him. At least to Utu. And since Tuara is no longer Tuara, Angelus would be useless to him, other than to feed Marks with. | BZPRPG Profiles | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow pridak money gang Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) Seeing as Angelus would do borderline anything to keep Tuara safe, it's safe to say he would act as a mercenary of sorts for Utu to do so.-Teezy Edited June 9, 2012 by #firstworldtyler ＳＡＹ ＩＴ ＯＮＥ ＭＯＲＥ ＴＩＭＥ ＴＥＬＬ ＭＥ ＷＨＡＴ ＩＳ ＯＮ ＹＯＵＲ ＭＩＮＤ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palm Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 A good point, but, Utu already has super powered people, many of which are willing to follow him.Although the idea that being in total control of his enemies is appealing to him. Even though I doubt Utu himself would come up with using Tuara as leverage. At least at this point. As far as he's concerned, he's got it made. A goal, a plan on how to get there, and people just like him by his side to assist him in reaching that goal. | BZPRPG Profiles | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Now if you'll excuse me, I see a toa of shadow at the top of the hive that I'd like to have a talk with."Amerikos ran towards the hive, and yelled up to the toa of shadow, "Who are you that challenges the will of Mata Nui? Die, mongrel!" he threw several pitons at the toa of shadow, and dodged several blast from him as he continued his race towards the hive. He activated his mask, hoping to make it harder for the toa of shadow to find him. He unsheathed his sword, and waited for retaliation.OOC: Nuju, I have engaged you.
