Tahakki Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Ah, fine then, I guess I'll draw up a couple of new characters, though I doubt I'll do any massive story arcs or anything - Mout I ain't. I'll be honest, it's the mention of the Santun that has me coming back - no organisation, whether in books, films or games, has filled me with as much fear, dread and revulsion as Sera managed to pull of with both the Santun and the Roses.Anyway, first post will likely be in Le-Wahi. See you there!Me, I loved the Santun arc, simply because you could get away with stuff you could never do today. Yeah, it's more fair today, but it's significantly less awesome. Agree completely. Only then was ripping a hole in the dimensional fabric of the universe something completely routine. Gotta remember that this RPG's only getting off the ground though - I believe we'll build up to something reasonably epic eventually.

Lara White Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Let's hope.I think this quote from Lazok sums up Metru Nui (prior to the Santun War itself actually starting, then it just got insane) and Locus Abeo pretty well:"This was just another testament to the peace and security of the Knowledge Sphere, that this was considered a high-alert emergency. In Metru Nui, this would've been just another day in the life -- a nine to five day of rescuing people here and there, and then home for dinner. In Locus Abeo, the possible death of four people wouldn't have even caused one to blink." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahakki Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 I never played Locus Abeo, by the time the wrap-up "finished" everyone was just moving to Aenstr Derrum.

It got a whole lot weirder, especially with Sera's Takrah Arc, then The United Shadow with the Core, then the Reapers, then the Santun...I don't think anyone knew the entire story.

EmperorWhenua Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 That was then, this is now. Let's not conentrate on singing songs of days long gone and instead exhert our energies at building a legacy on par with what once was. Save the reminiscing for private discussions and put the 2012 BZPRPG game face on. We don't have to copy the old arcs or gawk at how laberythine it was, we just have to be cheerful and play the game we have.Let's make 2012 a year of true new beginnings and set the cornerstone for the future arcs we'll have.

AuRon the champion Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Speaking of arcs/legends/fractions/groups/etc, I'm planning on setting up a pro-makuta group, if you have any ideas and/or suggestions PM them to me and I'll end up making a blog post about it in the possibly distant future.

Vezok's Friend Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Can someone give me a brief outline of the major factions on Mata-Nui at present? There are groups that focus around some individual players, like the Marines were (maybe will be again, in some weeks, we'll see). Or Stannis and his merry little band ( And it pains me to say I haven't been able to keep track of their actions, despite them having quite the importance to them).But no real factions.But speaking of factions and organizations, I had chats with Ghosthands a while back, when Tamaru was killed, that dealt with the organization of the villages defense forces. Since quite a few people are having characters as members of those, would it be cool if there were official reference paragraphs as to how they are organized? I know Ghosthands had written a structure of the Gukko-Force, I worked on that of the Ta-Koro guard and Kalama had the marines, but there is nothing on how they are organized in the RPG-canon if am not mistaken.Just wanted to bring that up, I've been thinking about this for a while.
