Which table are you sitting at?

I went with Table 4. I feel like there'd be a lot of interesting conversations to be had with the biker Makuta, a guy made of bugs, and the dude who was literally chosen by the Great Spirit to rule the universe.

Not a bad choice.

Each table's three characters all have something in common. Can you figure out what the commonalities are?

Let's see:

1 - Lunatics

2 - Died and couldn't be revived by the Red Star

3 - Brutes

4 - Vanity?

5 - Inventors

6 - Sense of honour?

7 - (Evil) masterminds

8 - Scheming selfserving rats

Table 1 - all three are certifiably insane. 

Table 2 - they're all permadead. 

Table 3 - I suspect the joke here is that all three are "Dark Hunters". (Though you used a picture of Destroyer Umarak rather than Hunter Umarak, so I could be wrong on that one). EDIT: all three were forcibly mutated into more monstrous forms. 

Table 4 - My initial guess was that Xia was what connected these three (Pridak and Antroz both oversaw the island at different times). But Zaktan only visited there briefly. Then I checked Antroz's BS01 page and realised he was in charge of the Makuta in Karda Nui, making all three of these guys the leaders of their respective groups. 

Table 5 - all three are inventor/tinkerer types. 

Table 6 - These three are all ancient, experienced leaders. 

Table 7 - These guys are all leaders of large antagonist factions. 

Table 8 - And these three are all traitors.

Yep, you got it. I'll have to make the next batch harder.

I'm gonna go with table 5! I slightly regret not getting to sit with my favourite boy Lhikan; but as a kid I was always most taken by engineer / inventor characters so that group holds a special attraction to me, even if I probably wouldn't understand half of their conversation if it got technical. Even now, Avak and Nuparu are both my favourites of their respective teams, so it really feels like the natural choice to me ^^

Table 5 was my pick as well. Nup and Balt just seem like really chill guys.

 

I always thought it was weird that among the Piraka, Avak was considered the especially untrustworthy one, being excluded from the plot to overthrow TSO. Avak is the only Piraka with an interest aside from being evil. I always thought if he were not friends with such lowlifes he could easily use his talents to become a productive member of society. I think he would be significantly less evil if his best friends were a Balta and Nuparu and they could all bond over their love of engineering.
