WriterofReapers Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 Nuju, how are these Essence Stones activated? I seem to remember that a Suva was necessary in order use Toa Stones (or at least that was the case for the Metru, and of course this was in canon), but Joske was transformed simply by holding his. So, will the Oceanic Six/Wanderers Company all start transforming the minute Takua starts handing out those stones like it is Christmas morning?Although, admittedly, that would make for an awesome Christmas present.

Eyru Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Hey guys, I'm back. Had a lot of school work and stuff to do, but I should be good for a while now. I need a recap of events since about last Wednesday, specifically stuff relating to the ILS, Mark Bearers, Horde, and staff plot. Thanks.The ILS has done nothing as far as I'm aware.The Mark Bearers have been banished from Ga-Koro, and the village of water is putting pressure on the other Koros to exile their Bearers as well, due to all the damage that had been done as a result of the Bearers' antics. The Mark Bearers are making their way to Xa-Koro, the only village on the island that still welcomes their presence.Don't know what the Horde is. If it's the Makuta followers, I believe they haven't moved much, if at all.The Oceanic Six have come together at last, and have made their way to the Charred Forest where they have met the mysterious Matoran, revealed to be Takua. Takua has revealed the nature of the six artifacts stolen from Makuta, and what the Six are destined to become.The Daedra have cunningly manipulated the villagers of Ga-Koro to exile an innocent Toa team, and then to banish the Mark Bearers.

One of the toa you put a bounty on has found his old organization and is trying to start up an organization that's a mash up of the Cultured gentry and the Black Inferno. he already has a spy in the ILSSpeaking of which, are there any open recruitment spots for the Infervanika, S.

I will get back to any posts on Friday/weekend.Secondly, about these Angcora-what are they, and what posistions are open? I doubt I have time for a full-blown member of the team, but I do have a number of resources both upcoming and current that could be useful as allies for the team if on the side of Mata Nui. (1.6 Toa teams, eventually to be 2.6, a custom species faction once I finish approvals, and some other concepts to run by staff that will be useful for light-aligned characters.)

Nuju Metru Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) I'll have you guys know that I just re-watched all the old MNOLG animations. I highly recommend y'all do the same; not only was it a trip down nostalgia lane for me, but a really valuable insight into how things on the island of Mata Nui are intended to be. This is still the vision, more or less, of what things are.With all the foreign tech, strange new species, and our more mature perspective, it can be too easy to lose sight of the world we're actually playing in. Don't forget the innocence of Mata Nui. Your next Toa are on the rise. There's still hope, as there always has been.Seriously. Go find those animations and watch them. You'll be glad you did.

Yeah i should probably add more text though... In the spirit of Fall and Halloween, I am making a slenderman expy that will roam the charred forest. Not sure yet how the plot will go, but it will probably be a short one. Is there anyone interested in being in this plot? I'm probably looking for a few brave/scared matoran.

Snelly Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I remember playing the MNOLG when it first came out, that was like what...10...11 years ago? Yes I am that old. My favorite thing in the MNOLG is when you ride the Kahu as Kongu's second in Le-Wahi and shoot down Nui-Rama with a disk launcher, that was so much fun. It's also why I gave Skyra a Kahu, cause they're coooool.

25K Now! Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 In other news, I came up with a pretty awesome solution for how to deal with Zatth summonings, which are random.Firstly, we get a d20, and assign like, 1-6 for small creatures being summoned, 7-14 for medium sized creatures, and then 15-20 for larger ones. After doing that, you roll the die, and look at the number. If it's, say, 9, then it'll be a medium sized creature, which means you get to summon a Rahi of medium size. So then you go to a randomizer thingie, and put in the names of Rahi native to the region and are medium sized and click whatever button there is.Tada! Rahi Summoned!Or if you're lazy, get a d6, assign each number to a specific Rahi in that region, with two big, two medium and two small. Roll die. Summon the one that is assigned to the number obtained. http://vimeo.com/198967785 BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
