Nato G Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 But they couldn't, because there's no such thing as a Metru in the BZPRPG. The word doesn't exist.

25K Now! Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 No, the word likely exists. I mean, you have people calling things Hagah and putting together Matoran words for new names. The thing is, a Metru is a district, not a city. We just don't use the term for any tiny districts in the separate Koros. 3 http://vimeo.com/198967785 BZPRPG Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeper of Kraata Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Yeah. Metru-Nui in Canon was one GIANT metropolis; having Metru mean 'district' would make sense. The times, they are a-changing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeper of Kraata Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 So rahkshi exoskeletons are immune to Iron and Magnetism. Are their staffs also resilient as such? Now that I think about it, the Rahkshi immunities kind of make sense, in relation to Canon. Fe- and Fa-Toa were hunted down by the Brotherhood of Makuta for the danger they posed to their armor, so it sort of makes sense in a Meta way that Makuta's sons are designed to be resistant to those elements in the BZPRPG universe. Can I get a ruling on this? It... might come up soon. The times, they are a-changing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voxumo Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) I would imagine they are just as resilient since a Rahkshi is somewhat useless without their staff, as they need it to focus their powers. So wouldn't make much sense for them to be resilient, but their staffs not be.

Some Random Phrase Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 What's a Metru? I think you might mean a Koro, Manhunter. Oops. In any case, I do mean a Koro.

Constructelf Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 In regards to your original question of what to do in the Metru Koro... Whatever you want. Killing for money can't be the totality of your character's existence, after all. Have them go shopping, go have a drink, just wander around, anything that can get your character talking with somebody else. I hope they're a good conversationalist. If you want something more specific and more plot-centered... Post an OOC advertisement here.

Prowl Nightwolf Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Has that been planed out yet? I mean we know what it does to Mata Nuians. They suppress one's natural Elemental powers in favor of whatever the amulet's is. Wasn't there word that it takes some time to take effect though or is the suppression suppose to be near automatic and the change over time type deal?

Keeper of Kraata Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) The amulets will affect anyone with elemental traces; Matoran get the matoran power, toa/turaga get a specific lesser power, and skakdi get the lesterin power.

Simulacrum Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 If anyone has mercenary/evil characters in Ko-Koro and would like both interaction and snazzy Vault tech, I'm up for having Hakann hire more people (he's going to talk to Echelon once Echelon returns to the Sanctum, but after that he's open to interaction, so now would be an ideal time to decide upon what deal would be made).

Be interesting to be sure... Anyone ever heard of Black Ice? lol...what do you exactly mean by Black Ice? "Black ice, sometimes called clear ice, refers to a thin coating of glazed ice on a surface. While not truly black, it is virtually transparent, allowing black asphalt/macadam roadways or the surface below to be seen through it—hence the term "black ice". The typically low levels of noticeable ice pellets, snow, or sleet surrounding black ice means that areas of the ice are often practically invisible to drivers or persons stepping on it. There is, thus, a risk of skidding and subsequent accident due to the loss of traction." - Wikipedia "Identifiable physical attributes of Ko-Matoran include white, gray, silver, black, blue, and sand blue Kanohi and armor, as well as blue eyes."- BioSec01.com So anyone ever seen a Black Ko-Motoran or Toa/Turaga?

Keeper of Kraata Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Regarding BZPRPG 'cosmology': Mata Nui and Makuta are gods. Karzahni is referred to as a curse, and Artakha Bulls exist and are named so. Does the general mythology regarding the last two exist? Karzahni is a place of broken souls and the being that rules over them, while Artakha is a place of artisans, including the greatest of them all? The times, they are a-changing...
