So he subjected our race to terrible experiements that turned us into the warmongering looters we are today" OOC: Just as a side-note; I am in no way stating that Colx or anyone else knows what happened, since Zakaz may or may not exist at all in this RPG. I'm simply describing a theory that someone has pulled out of their rear to explain Skakdi customs and whatnot. The awesome part is that I could say that the Skakdi were originally a race of talking furniture, and that a giant sockmonster changed them into what they are now to be his party buddies, and you couldn't prove it wasn't true.

The Sanctum is a place of thought, a great temple-like structure where words of wisdom are carved on the wall of prophecy. Whenever you need to solve riddles, you should go there.

Parugi Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) IC - "Him"/Ukris - Ukris's Hideaway Hut: The glittering jade of the jungle had rapidly given way to the deep blanket of black night as He waited for their return. Ukris had done his job perfectly, delivering His riddle as intended, and in the process succumbing to his own immortal despair. As expected, His adversaries had left to search for the answer, and if He was right, they would have solved it by now. Unexpectedly, they had not returned. What did that mean, He wondered. Had they become so engrossed in the spirit of the search that they had overlooked the clues, throwing them off the path He had constructed? Had they been devoured by the beasts and bugs of the land, stopped in the tracks to Lake Pala? Or had they simply been detoured? If the former, He would need to correct them. If the middle, how tragic--never would they see the fate of their protected soul. And if the latter... Well, that was boring. Regardless, the dark had overcome the light. The cards of protection were shuffling amongst the platforms. Below, a spirit waited to be liberated--and He yearned to liberate. The Turaga of Fire that had been assigned to guard duty walked briskly away from their post as a Toa of Gravity approached, swapping places. He smiled, suppressing a chuckle, as the fiery elder grumbled about having had to spend an entire day in a single spot with nothing to do. He couldn't blame him. Then again, the Turaga's heat-sensing abilities had been the one obstacle in His way; they had no one to blame but themselves. Carefully, He edged along the side of the tree trunk, beginning His silent descent, assisted by a local bubble of sonic void. With an invisible, flamboyant spin, He stepped onto the platform that the hut rested on, peering in through the window. Ukris lay in bed, as he had done for the past day, blanket pulled up to his chin as he stared up at the darkened ceiling. He grinned at the sight. The Matoran did not even stir as He climbed through the window, dropping to the floor. At this point, He expanded the sonic field, throwing the entire platform into silence as He walked along toward Ukris, deactivating his mask as he arrived at the center of the room. Licking His lips, He unrolled a chain from His torso, spinning the glinting metal in a wide arc around Him as a noiseless whistle escaped His lips. It was not until He stood at the headboard of the bed that He leaned closer to Ukris, manipulating the bubble to create a small channel from mouth to ear. When He spoke, it was with Ukris's voice. "It's time." Ukris' eyes shot open. Admittedly, He was disappointed. The Matoran hadn't screamed as much as He had expected him to. Not that it mattered, really, but still--it was the thought that counted. Nevertheless, a Matoran-shaped pendulum now occupied the center of the room. Tacked on to his body were two, neatly-wrapped notes, identical to that which had been discovered on the woman's body in the market a few days before--more presents for those that wished to hunt Him. All in all, another beautiful piece of art. And now, for the finishing-- The silence field shattered as He suddenly felt the gravity around his body increase dramatically. He hit the ground--hard--and struggled to turn his head toward the door. The Toa of Gravity held his hands out, shouting for reinforcements whilst simultaneously trying to keep his focus away from the dead body and on Him. He smiled, as with a click of His tongue, the guard's voice disappeared. The next instant, a sonic burst shot forth, knocking him away from the doorway. He felt the pressure on His body let up, allowing Him to roll away and back onto His feet. Through the door, He saw more guards approaching through the fleetingly torchlit darkness. His grin widened into one of complete mania. With a cheerful sweep of His hand and a short bow, the Toa of Sonics reactivated His mask, sending a concentrated sonic burst at the floorboards as He did so. Childlike laughter, a mixture of a thousand voices, slowly vanished as He descended into the branches below, all coalescing into a final, sing-song shout: "Friieends are sooo fuuun~" ... Silence.

Toatapio Nuva Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 IC Jarkale(Le-Koro): Jarkale frowned upon the newcomer. "In case you haven't noticed, there are more than four of us here. And, quite frankly, I wouldn't trust someone drunk to take us through the mountains." IC Kaunis(Le-Koro, Star-Bright Inn): "Just a way to relieve stress... what methods do you have?"

NorikSigma Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 IC: Kiron"Especially if he admits he's drunk and if the person is exactly who we need," Kiron said. He did not trust this 'Xadah' fellow. BZPRPG ARC 3 / Breaking Point Profiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elemental Ussal Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) OOC: Ah, sorry not available during weekends =(when I said one-armed toa, I was talking about Vompran. He is missing an arm and has an artificial shin and foot. He was badly injured in the Makuta war. Poor guy. =P I.C. Vompran (Le-Wahi)"No, I'm afraid I don't remember you. Yes, I know a ta-toa blacksmith named Akune, and my friend-over-here's brother, Onyx, is a toa of Iron. Last I checked, Akune was in the village, and I'm not sure where Onyx is."
