Ghidora131 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I thought either Shark or Rechere was one, seeing as they're both hulking and powerful, but i felt a little less so on Rechere after he attacked Flabbergaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sassy Dalmation Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Haha! So Draco was an assassin. I love being right. But Shark... I spent this entire assignment proclaiming his innocence, thinking he was too obvious... I was willing to give Johnrahk the benefit of the doubt, and I was wrong. From this point onwards, I shall always expect the worst of everyone, that way I will never be disappointed like this again.You were given a huge hint... Anyways, I would like to make an apology for keeping everyone's characters stuck in the assignment. I should have just cut Draco out of the assignment when the workload was becoming too much to keep on playing regularly, but at the same time, I wanted to keep Draco in character, and as my strategy wasn't working out well, this led to some major hold ups. For that, I am sorry. Quote Corpus Rahkshi: Shock, Mortsia, Draco, Dahl, and Carraig RPG score card:Bionifight Infinite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea-rex Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 4-Dimensional spiral? We can see it through time, can we?And is the "Sir" an honorific he bestowed entirely on himself?Yes, and yes.Although, to be fair, I was thinking of the jewel to be like this whenever you moved around it, only in a spiral shape, so it has nothing special about it apart from looking trippy. I know this is nitpicking...but how does that work with a static object exactly?

How many sprays might he get out of each one?When you say the satchel hold chemicals...does that mean its just got the raw ingredients for creating formulas, or does he have extra test tubes (ie extra ammunition more than the ten in the bandoleer) in there?

However, during his time there, Sir Cadwin had heard marvellous tales of brave heroes saving fair dames from treacherous villains and vile beasts, and found it simply grand, and so started to act like them, fashioning armour and following the ways of the old brave warriors, and plotted to overthrow the Makuta, who he saw as the worst of all, and anointed himself the first of his name. Unbeknownst to this, his Makuta sent him off to Corpus, in hopes that Sir Cadwin would become one of the strongest there was, and to help him in his deeds, while Sir Cadwin trained to become the best to complete his mission.

Wyrd Bid Ful Araed Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 I don't remember saying that. You stated that: Seeing how much easier it was to train him physically(and that being his primary intention anyway), that was what his Makuta did, and had simply no time for it. Things come up, and Hollow is given into other hands to finish the job.

His massively muscular body is mostly white, with black alongside it. His spines are also thicker and more defined. Very Tall, a very distinct hunch, and red eyes. Personality: Rage, kill, destruction, etc. You know. He has a soft spot, as he calls, it, which prevents him from killing other Rahkshi. He actually likes reading, but hates to have other people see him when he does it. He forces himself to stay underwater for long periods of time holding his breath, so that he can become good at it. He is, since he can hold it for a very long time. Too bad he's a terrible swimmer. He also despises his Makuta, believing he himself was responsible for his 'perfection'. He plans to leave as soon as he has taken in full what he can receive from Corpus. Bio: Hollow's Makuta wanted the most physically powerful Rahkshi in existence, so he pushed Hollow to insane levels. Unfortunately this meant passing by cyclone training, which is what Hollow was sent to corpus for. He is also related to Xi.

Onaku Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) Nov 20th Edit: Updated the profile. Name: OmicronVariation: FearLevel: 2Gender: FemaleGear: A giant sword riddled with spikes designed to make getting hit with the sword as painful as possible. She alone knows how to handle it without getting stabbed with the spikes. Appearance: Omicron is large, but not colossal, compared to other rahkshi. Her shoulders are large and wide, and her small kraata case is hidden under armor plates that cover her body, which gives her the appearance of a slightly hunched toa or skakdi with a rahkshi head rather than an actual rahkshi. Thorny spines protrude from her back, and her armor is very angular and sharp, including her head, which looks even more aggressive than a rahkshi head looks normally. Bio: Omicron came from Makuta Bitil to Corpus a while ago. She is Omega's little sister, and was very fond of her big brother. How ever, after witnessing Exxan murdering her brother, she had a mental breakdown induced by her fear powers turning on herself. It wasn't until recently that she emerged again, having managed to achieve a semblance of functionality despite the veil of fear that tints her world. In order to build a wall between herself and the horrors that consumed her reality, she forged herself a set of armour, riddled with thorns, as means of protecting herself, but also a cruel sword, riddled with spikes. Lately she tried her hand at defeating Exxan as vengeance for herself and her brother, intending not necessarily kill him, but at least prove herself against him so that she could at last put her fears to rest. Although she held her own against him in the beginning, after she revealed her identity to Exxan, the battle quickly turned to against her, ending in Exxan blasting her off the platform with his wind powers, ending the match. She has since sworn to end Exxan's life, be it as he ended Omega's life, or by any other means necessary. Personality: She is extremely unstable due to her own fear powers inducing a powerful fear cloak between the world and her senses, making her lash out at the slightest provocation. Although she hasn’t been around the school much, it would seem that she’s very much so fit to survive in its ever chaotic world, despite her tendency to overreact, but the trauma of her fear powers have turned her cruel and direct in her approach to matters. She both hates and fears Exxan immensely, the former a direct result of the latter, and both a result of witnessing him murdering her brother Omega.

Nato G Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I was thinking about a new character that did it in the past. Problem is, we've had issues in the past in trying to balance the limits of the 42 existing powers. Given that, I doubt Wyrd wants to open an entirely new can of worms by letting people come up with custom powers that he'd then have to review and approve.

Wyrd Bid Ful Araed Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 Just thinking, Wyrd, do you think it would be possible for a rahkshi to sacrifice his natural powers for one or more not on the list?Well firstly that had better be an absolutely bloody fantastic explanation you've come up with for how that happened. Secondly, I'm loathe to approve anything not on the already quite generous list of 42. A custom power sounds like it has far too much potential to be OP if only because it'll be wielded by a Super Special Snowflake Mary Sue character. Not to mention balancing it would require balancing all six levels of the power... So to keep it simple, no, I don't think it would possible.

Her shoulders are large and wide, and her small kraata case is hidden under armor plates that cover her body, which gives her the appearance of a slightly hunched toa or skakdi with a rahkshi head rather than an actual rahkshi. Thorny spines protrude from her back, and her armor is very angular and sharp, including her head, which looks even more aggressive than a rahkshi head looks normally. Bio: Orimnoc came from Makuta Bitil to Corpus a while ago, but she had been busy up until recently dealing with a mental breakdown induced by her fear powers turning on herself. After managing to deal with her internal fear, she decided to forge armour to warn any fools away from bothering her, knowing full well how unstable she herself was, but also a cruel sword to punish anyone that did. Her goals are currently unknown. Personality: She is extremely unstable due to her own fear powers inducing a powerful fear cloak between the world and her senses, making her lash out at the slightest provocation. Although she hasn’t been around the school much, it would seem that she’s very much so fit to survive in its ever chaotic world, despite her tendency to overreact, but the trauma of her fear powers have turned her cruel and direct in her approach to matters.

le-toa_rock Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 So perhaps it would be alright for his extra power to tech-based, E.G. a plasma sword for a hunger rahkshi? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makuta Miras Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) Probably not a plasma sword; Ultron very rarely, if ever, approves equipment that lets you use powers from other variations.

le-toa_rock Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 But it would be from a power not on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Rahkmaninoff Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Plasma is on the list, though. Some characters do have weapons imbued with such powers, but they're not often approved with them. Most of the time, they've been given as rewards for stuff, or otherwise specially obtained in-game.

Nato G Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 With a very small handful of exceptions, advanced/powered weapons like that have to be found, created or given as rewards IC, usually for participating in an assignment or some other event. I think the only special tech I've seen consistently approved starting out are rhotuka.

The UltimoScorp Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 In fact, the only tech so far allowed that enables a Rahkshi to use other powers is Grim's rhotuka launcher, which he had to get during the raid on Phantom-on-the-Water. Which I had to run by Ultron first. Quote BZPRPG Profiles The Unofficial Guide to TBRPG Combat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nato G Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 The only player-created tech, that is. Wyrd's given out a fair few powered weapons with other rahk abilities as rewards. The Percussor, Legion, Shark's laser face, etc. Quote Embers - A Bionicle Saga - Chapters/Review Class Is Out - A Farewell To Corpus Rahkshi - Chapters/Review BZPRPG Characters - Minnorak, Kain, T'harrak, Savis, Vazaria, Lash BZPRPG Mercenary Group - The Outsiders - Description - History - Base Ghosts Of Bara Magna - Ash Tribe - Precipere - Kehla, Somok, Skrall, Gayle, Avinus, Zha'ar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
le-toa_rock Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Well this character is based around rift powers, so I don't think that anyone will be seeing him around any time soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
