Snelly Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) We'll have to learn how to deal with younger players again. There are very few players under even the age of fifteen anymore. Once we get players ages nine to twelve in, we'll see a larger degree of newer, more immature players. Kids just beginning to write, kids who were in diapers when we were buying sets, kids just getting into the story. It'll be an adjustment, to say the least. We'll whip them in shape, make them true rpers with their blood, sweat, and tears! Oh god the tears ;_;7.

MoonKnight Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Hey there people! I'm planning to join the RPG, (only planning, so get yourself ready for some stupid questions) and was wondering, why aren't canon characters available for gameplay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel the Finlander Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 For two reasons, I think. 1. This isn't the canon universe, it's a bit different. There are some canon characters, but they are played by the staff because they tend to be more important and powerful than normal characters 2. This RPG is about creating your own, unique character and interacting with other unique characters. Besides, it's much more fun to play with your own, special character(s) still alive somehow BZPRPG profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lorax Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) There are a few reasons. First, in this alternate universe, most of the canon characters have died during the last couple of years (Toa Mata, Turaga, Chronicler's Company). Second, those that remain can only be played by one person at a time, so deciding who gets to play them would be difficult. Third, those that remian usually have a very prominent role in the overall story of the game, so the staffies play (or delegate) them to make sure they fill those roles well. Finally (and this is probably the most important one) The BZPRPG does not exist to retell the BIONICLE story as experienced by the original characters of BIONICLE. We're here to make make new and interesting stories and tell them together, and making and playing our own original characters allows us to do that much better than playing characters made up by the BIONICLE story team to tell theirs. EDIT: Ah, ninja'd! Daniel is pretty much right though. There's just this bit that isn't quite accurate.they tend to be more important and powerful than normal characters The only canon characters left from 2001 are Matoran, unless you count the essences of the Mata, the Legend-bound Makuta and the sleeping Mata Nui. Those aren't really characters that get played though. Edited October 11, 2014 by The Lorax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nato G Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Yeah... I think we need some of the canon female villains, though, because at the moment the game is dominated by male characters (which I understand is what most of Bionicle was like IRL, but you see what I'm getting at, I hope). Personally, I vote that Roodaka be made part of the RPG! 1 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...
MoonKnight Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Thanks for the replies) Those are the reasons you listed, and though some of them I find fixable, there's enough of them to make it clear:- Too powerfull canon characters;- The goal is in making a unique story, rather than retelling the canon;- Most canon char's are dead (this made me sad, to be honest D:)- It's hard to decide who gets to play this or that character; However, can characters have a close resemblance to canon chars's or be their clones/dark twins/shadow copies, as long as they aren't overpoweres and have weaknesses?

Geardirector Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 However, can characters have a close resemblance to canon chars's or be their clones/dark twins/shadow copies, as long as they aren't overpoweres and have weaknesses? A "strong resemblance" sounds dangerously like an expy (i.e. a carpon copy personality-and-traits-wise) which is strongly discouraged, if not outright forbidden. As for the other stuff, that's most definitely not allowed. 1 BZPRPG Profiles Nuparu-Ferron-Mar-Zelvin-Wiremu-Farzan-Mako-Krex-Tamachan-??? Akiri Nuparu Posts: 1. 2. ...

You are allowed to make Toa of Fire with Hau's and Turaga of water with Rau's, if that's what you mean. They should be different characters though, so not named Tahu and Nokama for example. Clones personality-wise are not allowed. Besides, it's more fun making your own combinations and personalities than use template ones.

Timageness Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Completely agree with Nato and Silo on Roodaka being in the game at some point, as she's my favorite Bionicle villian (ever so slightly pushing Vezon into second place). As for Sidorak... well, he can come too.But only if she uses his head as a decoration for her wall. 2 Epics: Hero Factory: ContagionRPG Characters:BZPRPG CharactersRPG History:The Asylum, Bionifight Infinite, Year 60,000, Matoran und Panzer, HF RPG 2.0, Wasteland, Corpus Rahkshi, SkyriseGM Résumé:Matoran und Panzer (Formerly Appointed Co-GM), Corpus Rahkshi (Former Substitute Co-GM) Feel free to shoot a PM my way if you're waiting for me to respond to something and I've been taking a while to do so.
