Snelly Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Well, if the Turaga are all getting kidnapped one by one, I guess The King from the Royal Court can step in as the new leader of all the koro! Though seriously, I think I can totally pull of getting the majority of the island loyal to him...I'm almost ready to start posting it...just gotta finish the last few profiles....

Elrond of Rivendell Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Intrestingly enough, we were battling tarkava out on the entrance to Naho Bay. It looked very much like a distraction. Actually, I'm "investigating", and if anyone wants to join me, they can Gentlemen, it's time to spread the word.

I think I might make a post soon saying that construction on Riven Dale is done and y'all can go on missions now, but you should pretty much assume that you guys can go and save Turaga/fight bad guys etc....Oh gosh, I'm becoming a Mout-clone.

Lara White Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 (edited) Passive-agressive much? It's beginning to feel like anyone can waltz into a Koro, grab a Turaga under their arm, and walk out. The one-post bit also leaves me feeling that you're just going to kidnap the rest of the Turaga in one post each and not give anyone a chance to, yanno, actually try and stop them. You're kidnapping the six most important beings from the six most well-fortified places on the island (and with a much larger Toa population than normal) in one post.Making that Ice Toa regret invading Ta-Koro was fun. Let us do more of that and less of the "cutscene" style of plot advancement. Edited March 16, 2012 by Lloyd: the White Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palm Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 So people in the larger Mark Bearer group in Ga-Wahi, let's cut out the coming and going a bit, especially with MB's. It's a little frustrating. @All the Turaga being kidnapped. I'm excited to see the outcome, and how the winner of the contest will play into this all.-Snipe | BZPRPG Profiles | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuju Metru Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 That makes sense... You're right, Lloyd, and sorry for my snideness.In the future, I'll try to leave this more open to player intervention - not that the results will be all that different as a consequence, per se - but you're correct to point out that these scenes can be more interactive and realistic. Since I was so focused on getting the job done, I did do one-post advances, yes. These are easier, of course, and less time-consuming for me when I'm trying to still devote some of the free time I have to keeping things moving in-game. But you also have to bear in mind that, in two of the cases, the Turaga have been snapped up by Heuani, Makuta's best man. Heuani isn't exactly easy to stop, and as you've seen, he prefers to stay hidden - one-post snags make a measure of sense for him. And in the case of Onewa, that Turaga is far from removed from game. The only reason he's been kidnapped and stayed that way was because too few PCs have intervened. If you want to take him back by force, he's right there for the taking.

Lara White Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 As I said before, the Song will go after these pirates. :PAs for your other comments, I know how you feel, I've done it before myself.

EmperorWhenua Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I would think it's totally possible for a PC to gain control of a Koro.
