Petewa Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 Like any good story, ours starts with a maskmaker. How This Works Basically, you guys comment on what should happen in the story, what the character should do, etcetera, I then update the comic, making certain that it is evident what you guys are to decide next. This part here at the beginning is literally just for character building. By that, I mean I'm letting you guys choose who the main character is and how they look.For this first update, you simply state what Kanohi you'd like to see our protagonist wear. I should be able to update this comic fairly constantly over the next few days, seeing as I have some time off of school. 2 Quote Mataru Nui, an Interactive Adventure
The 1st Shadow Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 Hm... I usually like to know a bit about the personality in order to give them a fitting mask. Like how Tahu was defensive and felt invincible, he was endowed with a Mask of Shielding. Matau was a jokester and a show-off, hence the Mask of Illusion. But, if you're letting us decide on what kind of character we want to see, I guess we can just decide on a mask and develop a matching personality as we go. I say we go for a Mask of Charisma or a Sanok. Quote ~Your friendly, neighborhood Shadow ~Credit for Avatar and Banner goes to NickonAquaMagna~
Toa Smoke Monster Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 I vote to have him/her wear a Hau, because I love that design. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.
Petewa Posted January 19, 2017 Author Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) More Due to the lack of consensus, I used a list randomizer to determine which of the masks would be made. More This will actually affect the plot. Yay.If you want, in addition, you can say what colour(s?) you'd like the mask to be painted, as well as what type of Matoran our protagonist should be.

Toa Smoke Monster Posted January 19, 2017 Posted January 19, 2017 He could be a Le-Matoran. And his mask could be a dark green color. That's just popped into my head at the moment. Quote Everyone is one choice away from being the bad guy in another person's story.

Electric Light Gunhaver Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 The new Le-Matoran's name is Vento, Esperanto/Italian for wind. or Luft, German for air. Pick one.His or her question: "Where am !?" Quote

Lemony Lepid Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 This looks fun! Hmm... What to ask... Loganto asks with a bright smile on, giddy about the world-building exercise. "Do you enjoy madu fruit? Do you even have it on your island? I tell you, it's good. Sweet, tangy... I grow them on Mata Nui, if you've ever heard of the place." 1 Quote ~~

Electric Light Gunhaver Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 May I ask for an aesthetic change? Could you please change the color of Vento's eyes to something less cyan? It's hard to see them. I'm thinking a reddish orange to contrast the blue and complement the green. Vento: "So can we see some sights of... Le-Mataru, I'm assuming?" Quote
Petewa Posted January 26, 2017 Author Posted January 26, 2017 (edited) Please link to images over 500 kB. -B6 The entirety of Le-Mataru is comprised of trees, not as large as the ones found in Bo-Mataru, but massive, nonetheless. From the trees hang fruits that rarely fall from their branches, many of these fruits have been hollowed out, as the Le-Matoran use them for housing.

Petewa Posted January 27, 2017 Author Posted January 27, 2017 The Le-Matoran tend to simply scoop the flesh out of these fruits and send the flesh off to the Marketers across the island. Quote Mataru Nui, an Interactive Adventure
