Hanako Herupa Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Katuko you would have made all my days if you did that.It's just frustrating cause this Deus Ex Machina stuff feels like meta-gaming.We need a certain mask, I'll just make a character and then toss him/her aside. (If that characters become a full fledged character that you play just as much as your others then good, but I'm still on edge about this.We don't know what it is, person from halfway across the island comes just to tell us what it is.It might seem like I'm singling people out, but what I'm singling out is instances that really break the game for me (and others). The group should have trouble, they should have to scour the island for the Toa they need for this. It shouldn't be this easy.He shouldn't just show up on their doorstep out of the blue. It's cheap, there's no other way to say it.@Krayzikk: That's sucks, I'm assuming one of them is EmperorWhenua. Who's the other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krayzikk Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Onarax.If we want to reboot it, we'll need to gain some new characters. A lot of teachers were either fired IG, or went inactive.

Snelly Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) I totally agree...making a character just for their mask sounds extremely lame and kills the whole challenge. Why don't you guys just try to make do with what you got, improvise?Show some creativity! Making characters with just the right masks appear like you own a Toa-making factory somewhere is not creative. Dunno what you're talking about, Smells. I replied hours ago,Liar.

Cadias Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) I'm sorry, but making a new character specifically to gain a power in your group to advance the plot is just bad RPing. At the very least, put him on the other end of the island and spend a week (as in, a RL week) looking for him. Have him be hesitant to join or something to keep the challenge challenging!Even if you've wanted to make said character for a while, do you have to start him off right on their doorstep right when they need him?

Wade. Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) @Katuko: I'm way ahead of y'all, just joined the ILS with a character who wears a Mask of Psychometry. Or perhaps Madrihk is finally tired of dancing the good-guy dance and proceeds to strangle him right there and then. Should probably have done that back with the Parakuka-clues as well.Kidding, of course, but the thought did cross my mind when we were all "Oh noes what is this?" and the Vortixx went "Oh hai it's Parakuka, guys!" and we went "It's what now?" and he was all *MASSIVE EXPOSITION*.I would have died from laughter if you did that :lol:I could totally see everyone completely stunned and so confused.

The Lorax Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 (edited) Right so, is using a Nui-Rama as a pet legal? As according to Biosector01, the Gukko force made use of them.And I quote from the first page of this very topic:Q: Can I have a mount/ride? If so, what kind?A: Yes, your character is allowed to have a pet/mount. However, this companion Rahi of yours must be reasonable – no taming Nui-Rama or other powerful/evil Rahi is allowed unless you have both a very good reason and staff permission. If you have to ask yourself, “Is this Rahi too powerful?” then odds are that it is. Take the safe route and go for something smaller. Beasties like Ussals, Gukkos, etc., animals that we already know have been tamed by Matoran on Mata Nui, however, are perfectly okay. And no, other characters can’t kill or maim your mount without your permission – owned animals are like PC’s in combat.If Nui-rama are given as the example of rahi you can'y have, I would say you can't have one.
