Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Unless you come up with a more ingenious plan than I do. But I figure anything elementally large enough to take them out would get you caught in the crossfire, and the lack of any form of telepathy of your own prevents the formulation of a plan mentally. So most likely it would be a failed attempt.Don't act like you can't win. You can. You could go nova and kill the entire species, but then I'd retcon it and ban you for godmodding. You could also figure out some way to coordinate properly and take three beings, including one with telepathy ready for combat use and directing allies to incoming attacks. But it would not end well for either group.And the Council would probably have no problem. Though the moment that anybody looks at the records and realizes Dracque doesn't have an official room and board and the like in the Council chambers, and is not a full member, there would be lots of shouting and demands for official write ups and a panda...-Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 Well, originally I planned on the Azure Thunder crew finding a bunch of ruins in Dajon pointing to the main story, and a bunch of other stuff would happen, and then they would find out all of the stuff that Quorvex just learned. But it's one month into the RPG already and they haven't even started anything except lift boxes and presumably kill some Level 0 Stone Rats for 1 XP each.But since Tafu is pursuing this stuff, he gets to form an adventuring group to find the stupid rod.-Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tafu Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 But since Tafu is pursuing this stuff, he gets to form an adventuring group to find the stupid rod.I was afraid of this. I created Quorvex to pursue this plot-line because I thought it was just some random thief who was hiding around Sakrinil. Once again, I am dead wrong.Well, forming another adventuring group shouldn't be too hard; I've noticed at least five other characters who are interested in the thefts, but we keep missing each other.

Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 Toa Council – The Toa Council is the oldest order of Toa, and has chambers across the Matoran Universe. The one on Yheyn is one of the oldest, and only those on Everok and Nui-Vatur beat it in the Southern Islands. In the ancient past, Toa were forced to join it, or be considered rogue and imprisoned. Members must follow the Toa Code to the letter, or else risk punishment. Disagreements on this led to the creation of the Xankah Order.If a good enough reason is presented, the Toa Council may allow a member to fight for one of the other factions, doing as they see fit.Requirements – ToaSymbol – Unity, Duty, Destiny symbolGoals – Enforce the Toa Code; protect the security of the Universe.Leader – Toa Sorlan (Toa of Magnetism)Base – Sakrinil, Council ChambersAllied with Southern Alliance, Coast Guard Opposed to Xankah Order (non-combat), Rogue ToaHighlighted for you. All of the faction bases are under the faction section. I left the exact details up to the individual players determination, but if you want more of my interpretation, I'll quote the Wiki if you're feeling unimaginative. And keep it in spoilers to keep others safe from your evil, Grochi.--- Toa Council Chambers - The base of the Toa Council. The Council Chambers are quiet large, with multiple stories and numerous rooms to provide personal quarters for every Toa, and numerous armories or libraries to gain knowledge or weapons. The entire thing is centered around a huge chamber in the center, where enough seats can be found to host the entire Council and then many more during meetings.-Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want to fight a bunch of faceless, nameless mooks that are hard to sympathize for, or a bunch of well-developed creatures that you're sympathetic for?In short - Remorseless Neo-Genocide or Sorrowful Neo-Genocide?

Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 A few problems.1. The Midak Skyblaster hasn't been invented yet.2. Gender & Species should be a single section reading 'Female Ce-Toa', but you don't need to change it if it looks too weird.3. The Powers section needs to be there, so you can detail what portions of your element you specialize in and the like.4. There needs to be a Personality section.5. I'm not going to allow two things in the profile - first of all, no exploring the entire MU. There's nobody who's done that, and nobody ever will. You might have stopped at Metru-Nui and the like occasionally, but it's not likely. Also, I'm not allowing you a character that's among the first Toa created, and thus one of the most experienced by default. Especially not with such a slim Biography - that's barely going over the minimum. I'm one of those GMs that only allows the more outlandish backstories and powers if the character is well detailed.-Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tafu Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Also, what are you talking about masks for @ Tafu?I just did what any good player would do, which is exploit a vague or obscure fact and used it to defeat the monster in a slightly more creative way than simply stabbing it repeatedly. In this case, it was knocking off one of its masks and then stabbing it. :PIn order to justify my claim, I point towards Biosector01. The rahi sections states that some rahi can wear powerless Kanohi which are then infected by Kraata. This implies that the Kanohi have to already be there, and the Muaka is one of those rahi that wear masks; one on each of its 'shoulders' (for lack of a better term). Now, they are powerless, but so are the masks that matoran wear. Matoran only use them to sustain them with energy, so this implies that they would serve a similar purpose with rahi. Although it would probably be on a more limited scale since rahi also need to eat.(Of course, even after all that, my point is rather moot considering the thing is already dead and we can move on.)As to the question of who we want to fight: I vote for "surprise us". Cause odds are, we're going to surprise you. Credits: Xanis"Don't Panic." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burnmad Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Hey Lev, Constructman seems to have edited his character now.Also, what are the ranks of the Toa Council, and which is the highest a PC can be?- Avatar by Brickeens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toa Levacius Zehvor Posted August 8, 2012 Author Share Posted August 8, 2012 (edited) @ Constructman; There's actually a very low number of Toa in the Northern Continent - Yheyn has the highest Toa-Matoran ratio in this area of the world at this time. I'll probably do a full write up on all of that later.@ Burnmad; The highest ranking Toa are the Grandmaster, Counselors (Councilmen), and Master Toa. After that I didn't really detail any further, though Mater Toa is an incredibly high rank for a Toa to have - there's only two in the whole Southern Alliance. The unusually (and unnecessarily) high number of Toa in the area are part of the reason why Sorlan is here. Like I said - I didn't really go into the non-leadership ranks in the things I have, so just come up with it. Heck, write the whole list if you feel like it.In short - You can be anything lower than Master Toa, pretty much.-Toa Levacius Zehvor Edited August 8, 2012 by Toa Levacius Zehvor "I disapprove of what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." - Evelyn Beatrice Hall (often attributed to Voltaire) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
