Ghosthands Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Wait... are all of the main six Koros linked via monorail? Nope. The monorail is intra-Koro transport, located only in Ta-Koro. Le-Koro has a chute system, and Po-Koro has a railroad (the Iron Mahi) linking it to the small port-town of Forsi. Travel between Koro mostly still requires conventional means: on foot, using Rahi mounts (including flying ones), or by sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nato G Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Okay, so was just reading to BS01 that all Rahkshi essentially had a kind of telepathic link to the Makuta that created them. Makes sense. Now, here's my question: do the the Rahkshi in the RPG that have been corrupted and enslaved using antidermis now have a telepathic link to the being that enslaved them? Is that how they're controlled?

Unless your being has telepathic powers of her/his own with which she/he can reach into the mind of an enslaved Rahkshi, the most effective way to give them orders is through verbal communication.

I may be the only one who feels this way but still. Already dreads bringing this up We, the staff, have deliberately made it easy for evil characters to get in touch with the big baddies because the game needs more conflict, and Mata Nui needs a clear threat. The game got very slow over the last year, in my opinion due to the lack of overt conflict, and there were few powerful villains. That's why you had to wait so long for Syvra's meeting with Echelon; if I remember correctly, he was already tied up with stuff when you asked to interact, and that stuff took a long time to wrap up. That was because of the pace of the game and the lack of motivation that I (and many others) felt in regard to it. Increasing conflict on Mata Nui should stir up some more energy among the players, and that will be good for everyone. Please don't be sullen about it.

Having lived in Australia my whole life, I know from personal experience that when a fire gets hot enough, anything can burn. Once the fire gets up to a certain temperature, the moisture and stuff in the rain-forest just evaporates; it makes no difference. Hence why I made sure Dayeth used stralix powder to start the fire.
