Palm Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 (edited) Tu-Koro was destroyed 300 years ago. However, there was a small team of Ko-Koronians that were salvaging some of the materials they might find there. They've probably since been disbanded if they've heard about Ko-Koro's fall, or they've yet to hear and it's about the happen. They were NPC's though so. It's effectively ruins.

Wazdakka Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 So I've been gone for three months. How would I get back into things?Catch up on current news, maybe, then reintroduce your character(s) in the topics. How exactly would I catch up on current news (not that anyone has probably done anything, given the pace of this RPG, but still)? Is Mata Nui Weekly still around? Steam Name: Toa Hahli Mahri. Xbox Live Gamertag: Makuta.

Prowl Nightwolf Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I'm up for some form of comparable list of approved tech usable by the populous as a whole. While leaving restrictions as needed due to available resources. For example I have Doseki as an inventor of sorts as he had to create the saddle and harness system for his Nui-Jaga as a condition of me allowing him to have and ride it. So using leather or similar cured Rahi hide would be something to add. Also most of his tools and gear was self-crafted. Though being a Po-Matoran being a crafter is the job of choice I guess.

Timageness Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Do either of the lists go into detail about modifications (for example, altering a Volo Lutu Launcher so that it could be mounted on a character's wrist or another weapon, such as a Patero Launcher) being made to already existing items?

Timageness Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 All I remember was that an inventor in Po (the name escapes me at the moment) created a functioning version sometime before Taranis and Tenjin were arrested, and Xhalia (who is currently frozen in time at Ihu-Koro) was created with the Volo Lutu secondary-fire attachments on her Patero Launchers.Speaking of characters frozen in time, I'm really starting to miss Septima and her awkward relationship with Verulas.

Silvan Haven Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 The list does not go into much detail about any modifications that have been made to the base tech. It's mostly supposed to give people an idea what they can use to make new things with "I serve the weak. I serve the helpless. I am their sword and their shield. If you want to strike at them, you must go through me, and I am not so easily moved." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is another thing that I think I brought up a couple pages back. A lot of the inventions are only available at a single store or shop so we cant really put them on the general list.

sunflower Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Think of this as an actually specific list of what materials people have access to on the island to make things with, rather than just "stuff". It's like describing all the pieces in a Lego set so that people have a better idea of what they're working with, cause "stuff" could just be a bunch of 1x1 studs with which to make a bunch of (kinda fragile) lightsabers, but not much else. 1 - BZPRPG - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geardirector Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I've actually been wanting to make Farzan's gadgets more widely available for a while now, I just haven't found the time or proper IC method of doing so yet. Also, many thanks for all the congratulations. I've been away with the family, so naturally I haven't been able to post anything. Expect the first Akiri Nuparu post sometime tomorrow.

Shadowhawk Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Hi y'all.So regarding my recent stretch of uncharacteristic inactivity; I feel obligated to come clean and explain the situation.I've always been prone to some mental/emotional imbalances. Depression; anxiety. Nothing so severe that it warrants a room in the asylum, but it's been a constant shadow-presence in my life, way back from, like, fifth grade. It's something that usually lies mostly dormant in the background, but every so often, for whatever reason (allergies, blood sugar, stress, or even just my genetics; mental issues run in the family), the cycle shifts (as cycles do) and the world gets ugly fast. Things go from a vaguely melancholic baseline, to full-blown pit of torments. Everything gets tossed on its head, nothing is stable, I can't even trust my own mind and identity. Which really, really sucks.I've had one major bout with depression already, but that was a long time ago. Then a few good years, and now I'm struggling with a second episode. Which is proving to be more severe and long-lasting than the first.I know this isn't an uncommon condition that humans deal with, so maybe some of you can relate. I'm just trying to break out of my shell a bit and explain things.The year 2014 started out fairly decent, got worse fast, and it's been a miserable combination of long black tunnel and nauseating roller coaster since then, right on in to '15. Once in a great while, I have a brief chain of 'good, but not quite healthy' days, now and then I have a brief chain of 'really bad and wretched' days, and everything else is 'default dark gray'. Fortunately I've never had to deal with serious suicidal impulses, so I feel lucky.One of the more unpleasant aspects of this condition is the way it thoroughly leeches away enthusiasm, motivation, and general psychological strength. So it can make even the smallest things, like getting out of bed, brushing your teeth, and talking to people, really really difficult to cope with. So of course this carries over into the BZPRPG. It's like the worst case of writer's block ever. Even the smallest post is a torturous hurdle. Easy things are never easy; nothing is easy. I've been able to deal with it to some extent, courtesy of those brief chains of 'good' days, but lately I haven't been able to do anything at all. I still have 'good' days, but I'm so drained and beaten, I usually just spend them listening to music or playing random computer games or just enjoying the sensation of hope.So I'm struggling through this, and I keep telling myself there's always a bit of light at the end of the tunnel. Sometimes I wonder why I keep trying, but I've never seriously wanted to give up... so I know I'll make it out eventually, but it's a rough campaign and I can't predict how long it'll take. It's complicated, and the healing/correction phase can be the most difficult part of all.So as things stand, I'm still keeping an eye on the RPG subforum, just kinda following the stories. But I don't feel able to actively participate in anything right now, and in particular, the BZPRPG. Hence the unannounced hiatus. And since I don't foresee this hiatus really ending any time soon, I feel obligated to tie up the loose ends.Hammerlock will remain as is, idling behind-the-scenes in Onu-Koro.Rhea & Nero, I entrust to the general care and keeping of everyone involved with that little subplot. I trust you guys. And if you really need me, I'm still around and could probably manage the reins for a little while, in a pinch.That's all for now, I guess. Sorry if I got a little off-topic. But this community does mean quite a lot to me, and I just wanted to explain things. I do still try to be active in the G&T subforum; lighthearted Mafia games and things are a lot easier for me to handle than full-blown RPGs, and so I actually still enjoy them somewhat.Anyhow, I'm still alive. If not kicking. And it's good character development, right? [/gallowshumor] tl;dr - I have depression and am going on hiatus until I recover. 10 BZPRPG profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuju Metru Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 I'm sorry you've been feeling off lately, Shadowhawk. Please, don't fret about this game if it just adds to your load... real life, and real life needs, should always take precedence. Also, don't worry about us: none of us hold any of what you're going through - or its consequences on your activity - against you, and I'm sure your fellows will find ways to work around your absence. If there's anything I can do, just let me know. Best wishes for your recovery, hope to see you around soon. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
