Mel Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) No? What is this "no" you speak of? Is it a type of Japanese soda? EDIT: Actually, if I'm remembering right, "no" is a suffix used to state the plural of something in Japanese. Therefore, by saying no, you're really saying "more." Mah. Ha. Ha. Actually no (ha). の is actually a possessive particle which roughly translates to "of" in English. Try again.

Eyru Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 So, I'm going to need a clarification on Parakuka powers. I was reading the wiki and profiles of Oreius, Toa Maru of Fire. Who has Inu. Is his thing a special case, where he only loses access to his elemental and kanohi abilities when activating the Parakuka? Ghost replied to this, but I figured I'd flesh it out a bit. Normal beings, when bonded with a Parakuka, don't just straight up lose their powers. They lose the ability to access them, as they no longer have the willpower necessary (having two minds distracting each other will do that to you). Your typical being becomes more like a Hordika, who, as you may recall from canon, were also unable to use Kanohi powers, and had to train themselves to use their elemental powers in even the most basic and uncontrollable ways. Parakuka hosts, too, become more like Rahi: aggressive, mistrustful, and drawn to darkness, almost as if they're devolving, returning to their baser instincts. Oreius and Inu aren't special because they carry Tahu's essence: they simply have a stronger connection. This is for a couple reasons. One, if you've read the wiki (or if you were around for last arc), you'll know that Inu was young when he bonded with Onewa, and the Turaga was able to influence him towards goodness and light instead of the other way around. This makes Inu more cooperative: though he's still aggressive by nature, it's easier for Oreius to work with him than with another Parakuka more steeped in evil. The second and more important reason is simply because the two bonded before Oreius became a Toa. When he transformed, the power of the Essence Stone fused them together, forging a deeper and more powerful connection than known by any other Parakuka and host. Instead of two personalities inhabiting two separate minds, Oreius and Inu share one mind, and this allows Oreius the concentration necessary to wield his mask and elemental powers. Of course, when Inu activates, Oreius loses access to those powers in exchange for heightened speed and strength. Activation essentially fuses their minds together completely, and the resulting entity doesn't possess the necessary willpower: they're ruled mostly by instinct rather than conscious thought. tl;dr i accidentally the most op toa in the game 12 BRPG Forum Rules • BZPRPG Starter Topic • Q&A Compendium • SK:A Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timageness Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Okay, I know that it's been said that someone with a Mask of Healing couldn't graft a new arm onto a patient that had previously lost one due to the number of nerve endings that would need to be re-attached, but what if the missing body part was simpler, like an eye for example? Would that be able to be transplanted, provided that there was a donor part?

Palm Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) That's why Agrona scars the people she heals, because she knows they won't fix it with another Sana. Sooner or later, everybody gets marked EDIT:Forgot to mention, Agrona has certainly experimented with her mask and her knowledge of the body continues to grow after years of dissections and continuing dissection. She can't quite put an arm back together, but she can do it wrong intentionally. So long as she does it for a purpose anyways.

Krayzikk Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Yeeeeeah that doesn't happen. Falls under the higher than canon organics presence. On the topic of the Sana, I think it's important to note that it is only really drastically sped up healing. A Mask of Healing cannot heal something that the body couldn't do by itself simply due to the nature of how it works. If the body couldn't ever possibly recover, a healer isn't going to have any idea how to fix it either. Decapitation, loss of limb, these are all things that a Sana can't fix. The reason its recoveries are so drastic are because it accelerates the healing process to such a degree that if there were even a remote chance of survival from an injury a Sana user can make it a reality. However, a Sana relies on skill too. As the likelihood of survival decreases, the greater the degree of skill a Sana user must have in order for that healing to be a success. In other words, there are injuries that it's really, really hard to heal and there are injuries which simply can't be healed. And while it cannot heal things the body has already healed, it can heal new injuries. For example if a bone healed incorrectly and was re-broken at the same point a Sana user could heal it correctly. That only really extends to bones, though, because injuries inflicted upon other tissues are incredibly difficult to replicate in order to re-heal an incorrect healing. Short statement; Sanas are not instant recovery devices. Not by a long shot. 5 On this eve, the thirtieth anniversary of that first colony, many are left to wonder; is the world fast approaching a breaking point?

Light Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Hence why guard force medics like Murrae use scalpels, sutures, and other surgical tools alongside their Sanas. Scalpels allow for scar tissue to be removed, sutures allow a medic to stich something together the right way before healing it. Neither of those extend to limbs though, because too much stuff has to be reconnected. No such thing as destiny. BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Quite Dead Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Yeah, I always figured that with serious injuries a Sana got you from the "bed-ridden" to the "limping around" stage quicker, not up to full health. ...but close to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
