1QUOTE 2Thanks for all the information. These are just a few more random questions.
31. The Ko-Matoran that developed Kanoka were from Metru-Nui, correct?
42. Was the Giant Shark that was reanimated in BL7 one of Mavrah's rahi?
53. Did the Pit War Tortoise exist in the pit before it was flooded?
64. How smart is the Toa Terrain Crawler?
75. Did the Toa Terrain Crawler come up from the domes with Voya-Nui, or some other way?
86. Are you involed in any of the other movies lego is making?
9Thanks again for the information you give all of BZP.

101) Yes 112) No. Mavrah's Rahi are in the domes, they're not out in the open ocean. 123) No, they were Rahi from inside the domes that made it out to the ocean. 134) About as smart as your average dolphin 145) Basically, the same answer as #3 156) At this point, I haven't heard anything about any other projects in the works besides BIONICLE.
#9842
11. You might not be able to answer this, but is the Makuta who MoMN is meeting up with the Makuta of the Mainland? Wouldnt he of investigated after Voya Nui rocketed off into the sky? 22. What are the OOMN doing this moment? 33. And just a random one - could a Great Being take on the entire Brotherhood?
4Thanks if you can answer.

51) No, he isn't. 62) Preparing for war with the BOM 73) I can't answer this.
8So next years Makuta is neither MoZ or MoM...

1They're not becoming Turaga. That was revealed in a post I put up earlier.
23. I suppose it's not really relevant, but say the Hagah were to become Turaga. Would their masks become Noble versions of the mask power that they wore, or Noble version of the masks they were shaped to honor. Or the same shape but with the power of the Noble mask. lhikans Hau kept its shape to honor him, but had the noble power, so I would guess that the Hagah masks might do the same thing. Like Turaga Iruini would have a mask in the shape of a Great Kualsi, but the power of a Noble one, and Norik would have a Noble Pehkui, but in the shape of a Noble Kiril. 3Thank you:
43) It's a good question. This is one of those things I would like to see fan debate on. Since I am not planning to make them Turaga , it's not vital, but still an interesting topic for discussion.

Mutated_Brutaka
1Hi GregF,
2Some questions:
31a. Was Brutaka recruited by the OoMN BEFORE or AFTER the BoM defeated the League of Six Kingdoms? 41b. If he was after, would it be possible he fought the armies of the Barraki?
52. You told us you have no room for Brutaka in 2008 and the "reboot" will start in 2009, does that mean we'll never see Brutaka again?
63a. Who created the OoMN? 73b. Was the leader of the OoMN chosen because of his intelligence or because of his combat skills, or both? 83c. Is the leader of the OoMN the same person as the leader of the HoA?
94. Can you tell me anything about the 2009 "reboot"?
105a. Why did Tahu sent Lewa back to Metru Nui? 115b. Why do the Toa Nuva need Roodaka's help? 125c. Is the person that Makuta (MoMN) will meet in Mahri Nui the same BoM member that dove up Makuta's (MoMN) Kraakhan? 135c. Is it the Makuta of Zakaz?
14Thank you.

151) Oh, well before 162) It is possible I may be able to work him into a web story in 2008. I hope to. 173) Its leader 183a) Both 193c) Yes 204) No, I can't 215a) Follow the blog and find out 225c) Think about it, it will come to you. What can she do that no one else can? 235c) Yes 245d) No. He is in hiding. If he showed his face, Makuta of MN would kill him, most likely.

25Hi GregF,
26Some replies and some more questions:
272) So do I. 285c) Re-mutate the Rahaga back into the Toa Hagah? And Lewa is getting the Rahaga?
29Thank you.

305c) Seems logical, doesn't it?

32Now does everyone believe me?

5No, it was in the Great Hau form, but it was the Metru Nui style. Tahu's looks different, I suppose because his is the Artahka style of the mask. Which gives me a good idea for a question for Greg. :)
6Guys, it's NOT MoZ. Mutated Brutaka's post confirms it. Maybe a new character..like, the Makuta of Destral: Yeah, that would be great.

7Lol, Destral is inhabited by the Makuta. The Makuta were installed on inhabited islands after the Matoran Civil War to prevent future problems, I doubt Destral had one to look over themselves. We can probably count out Destral and Daxia. Probably Odina as well, since if the original inhabitants of that island had a Makuta, the DH probably wouldn't have been able to kill off all the islanders without the BoM knowing it. I don't think that we know for sure whether every Makuta has his own island to oversee. Another good question.
#9850
1Actually, since Lhikan wasn't native to Metru Nui, his Hau wasn't Metru Nui style. Besides, there were lots of Matoran with a regular Tahu-style Hau seen in the Vahki animations, and they were on Metru Nui.

2You're right. I wonder if it's a time or regional difference. I'll have the answer to that soon.
#9854
11. is there a makuta of xia?
22.will the next update to bionicle story be on monday?

31) I am sure there is a Makuta assigned to that region. 42) No idea - you would need to ask Binkmeister, he is the web producer for BIONICLE.
#9855
1Wow, that was incredibly fast. New stuff here:
2Hi Greg, I have a couple new questions. 31.) We know that Lhikan's Hau looks different than Tahu's because Lhikan's was forged in a different style. Is the style of a mask a regional difference, or a change of style over time? Like Tahu's is the ancient style of the Hau, and Lhikan's is the more modern style? 42.) Was every Makuta designated an island to oversee? I suppose MoMN was assigned Metru Nui because of the islands great importance, but does every "lesser" Makuta have his own island? Or are there others who just inhabit Destral. 53.) Is every Makuta in the species a member of the BoM? Except for the Makuta of Zakaz? 64.) You said the OOMN are preparing for the war against the BoM. What exactly are they doing? Ammasing an army? Seeking allies? 75.) How exactly do the OOMN plan to fight a war against the BoM? Are they still going to use their secrecy to their advantage, or are they going to expose themselves in an all-out war? 86.) For that matter, what's the point of preparing for a war that most likely would never come, assuming the universe falls apart over three days? 9Thanks

101) I always saw it as a regional difference. 112) More likely a region rather than an island. In the case of Metru Nui, it is the only land in its dome, so if you were assigned to that region, you just had that island to oversee. 123) Yes 134) Readying their forces, basically. They can't really seek allies since that would mean revealing their existence too soon. 145) Both. 156) Well, what if the universe doesn't end? What if the Mahri find some way to achieve their mission? If you don't prepare, then where are you if things don't end?

161.) As promised 176.) That's what I thought.

1Hey Greg, I've read some new stuff in the OGD, and I was interested in seeing you state, in a way, that the Toa Hagah would return.
21. Can you clarify that they will be returning?
32. Are the Rahaga in Metru Nui at the moment?
43. Is the reason that (if) they are coming back due to the shortage of Toa in the Universe, or something else?
54. Will the Hagah have large or minor roles / will they appear web-only or in books?

Has water been pouring in for the last 1000 years? 44) Why don't the Toa Nuva ever use the powers of the Kanohi Nuva that they spent all that time searching for? 55) The Encyclopedia states that Jaller incinerated the Staff of Fusion. Does that mean it's gone for good? 66) Are the Bohrok Kaita and the Bohrok Va Kaita canon, or just random combiners? 77) Is Makuta able to shapeshift when he is in Maxilos's form, or only in his original armor? 88) If Krahka had ever met a Makuta, could she successfully use his powers?
9Thanks in advance, 10calc84maniac


111) Only if he or she was destined to do so. 122) No. They are used to channel the robot's energy. 133) Yup 144) They do, I simply like to have them win in other ways sometimes rather than always relying on the masks. 155) Yes 166) Yes, they are canon 177) No, he cannot shapeshift as Maxilos 188) She could duplicate powers she had seen used, but since Makuta have more than 40 powers, I doubt she could stand the strain of duplicating all of them

1New quotes i think that they're incredibly intruiging....
2Hi Greg. I suppose this is the sorta time of year when you get bombarded with questions about theorys for the next year. And I'm afraid im giong to have to fall under that category of people. Just like to ask a few questions if you dont mind.
31. I heard somewhere else that you said that the OoMN are preparing for war with the brotherhood. Since I can't find that quote can you confirm it?
42. Let's assume that they ARE preparing for war. That would be a pretty risky task seeing as they would blow cover to the rest of the universe. I also heard that they need to defend the universe core. Is that the reason that they are going to war?
53. If not is it because they're preparing for war AFTER Mata Nui wakes up. I think that the reason the Brotherhood wants the universe core is so that they can control when he wakes up or not. Theres probably a very good reason for this. Is it because the organisation really doesn't want to feel the wrath of Mata Nui?
64. Whats the point of letting loose the Bohrok and reducing Mata Nui (the island) to ruins? Is this part of a grand plan of somekind? Seems like such a waste of an island....
75. Is the Bohroks only purpose to make Mata Nui barren?
86. Is protodermis alive?
97. Have you got any idea whether or not they're going to make another Bionicle Movie?
108. Is the universe just sorta going to resume to its normal state once Mata Nui has been revived?
119. Tahu has plans for Roodaka, which involves sending Lewa back to Metru Nui. TSO wants her dead and Tahu happens to agree. Does Tahu want her to do something in which she'll probably end up killed?
12Thank you. :D
13I.G.N.I.T.I.O.N


141) Yes 152) The BOM is making their final push to implement their Plan, so the OOMN can't wait any longer to act. 163) Has to do with their long-term plan 174) But no one was ever supposed to live there, I. It's not supposed to be a place where Matoran live, so you really aren't wasting anything. The Bohrok do what they do because it is the will of Mata Nui that they do so. 185) Yes 196) There is organic protodermis, so that has the potential for life. Inorganic protodermis is not. 207) One has already been announced on the BZPower homepage a month or so ago. 218) We'll see, if he gets revived 229) No. Toa have a code against killing.


23How intruiging....
#9868
1Stuff from Greg
2Hey Greg, 3 questions 31) Can you tell me how many new masks we'll get in '08? 42) Roodaka can give beings she mutates new powers like she did with Nidhiki, right? So couldn't she give a random matoran toa powers? 53) Someone else asked you "Will the Hagah have large or minor roles / will they appear web-only or in books?" and you answered "Web only". Doesn't this mean that they'll come back?
6Thanks in advance

71) I can't discuss 2008 82) No, because she cannot create Toa energy. 93) Could be

10EDIT: Oh never mind #3, the serial just came out today...

1TSO wants Roodaka eliminated, but Toa aren't supposed to kill unless absolutely necessary. So the Nuva aren't going to kill her themselves. But once she has done what they need her for, will they complete their deal by handing her over to the DHs (making them accessories to murder)? 2Or would they just let her go as they would have the SoA by then and wouldn't need DH 'help'?



3No, they would not hand her over to the DH to be executed. That would make them accessories to her murder and still be a violation of the code.

4I see...
5'Nother Roodaka related question 6How did Roodaka intend to use the Toa Hordika's elemental powers to free Makuta if they had been dropped from the Coliseum? Wouldn't they have been too dead to fire Rhotuka?



7She had ways to tap into the power.

8Would she have used some natural power (if so, would all Vortixx have it?), or some sort of specialist equipment?



9Most likely equipment

1Hi Greg: 2I've got some questions about some older aspects of Bionicle.
31) In the first movie, Tahu was infected with Lehrak poison, then hit with Kuhrak's anger beams. This caused him to attack the other Toa. Was this the same effect that a normal Infected Mask or a Krana would have had? (I'm asking since he didn't freak out until Kuhrak hit him and he fainted.)
42) When healing him, Kopaka and Lewa cross an Ice Blade and a Magma Sword, which sends energy through Tahu. Gali then wash away the rest of the infection. Did the energy come from the weapons themselves? (Since Lewa used the Magma Sword, and he doesn't have any fire powers.)
53) What's the difference between Guuhrak's Disintegration power and Panhrak's Fragmentation? It sounds like they'd do just about the same.
64) Does Pohatu's Kodan Ball return to him like Axonn's axe? It would be a bit hard to retrieve it after each shot.
75) Can the Climbing Claws open and close like in an old CG movie for Pohatu, or are they always stiff like in Mask of Light?
86) In the Nuva Blog, Pohatu set up a bunch of delayed mechanisms that would reduce the Drak Hunter base to dust. Did he use his elemental power for this? If so, can all Toa delay their elemental powers? Ex: Kopaka chills an area so that it'll suddenly flash freeze when someone walks past.
97) Does Makuta already have the Staff of Arthaka in the web serial, or were they going to get it from Icarax when Karzahni interfered?
10Well, that's all my questions for now, but I'm sure I'll have more in the future. happy.gif
11<(Katuko)>


121) No. An infected mask makes you subject to the will of Makuta, it doesn't necessarily throw you into an insane rage. 132) No, it came from the Toa. Tools have no power, they just focus the power of the Toa. 143) Guurahk's power has to do with being able to find the weakest spot in anything and target it, and could be used against a living thing as well. Panrahk's talent was more suited for use on objects, buildings, etc. 154) Not to my knowledge 165) I would assume they would have to able to be moved, otherwise it would be hard to use them to grasp anything. 176) Pohatu and Onua's talents are best suited for this, because they can achieve effects through subtle shifts in the environment -- like pushing over one domino, that later affects others. 187) Makuta does not have it yet.


19Some questions I recently asked Greg. :) 20<(Katuko)>
#9871
11.Does Icarax see having The MOS as a sign of power? 22.Will Makuta (the one we know) punish him for his defiance,after he has served whatever purpose 3Makuta sent him for? 43.Is the reason Icarax is going to Karzahni's realm because of the matoran, 5who would be easy to convince to join him, because of their state of mind? 64.From what region is/was he from?
75.What will the Toa Hahga do now that they are Toa again? 86.Stop the Tahtorahk and Kanohi Dragon?


9SV

101) Well, it is a powerful mask 112) Follow the story 123) No 134) He was the Makuta assigned to the Karzahni region 145) I am sure saving any innocent lives on Xia would be part of the plan



15We now know Icarax was the Makuta assigned to Karzahni's realm. 16SV

1Some interesting side notes you may (not) know about Icarax.
2Hi GregF,
3That was a very nice update on bioniclestory.com
4Some questions about it:
51a. How many chapter does DoD have? 61b. " Gali Nuva's Blog "? 71c. " ItD "?
82a. Is Icarax the 2008 villain you were talking about? 92b. I know making a new legal costs a lot of money (like $3000, I believe), so does that mean that Icarax would also be a 2008 set? (I guess a titan.) (I mean, otherwise it's just throwing away money.) 102c. What region does Icarax look after? 112d. Why does Icarax want to take over the BoM? Are the other Makuta's behind him and do they plan to betray the Makuta (of MoMN)? Or is it just the Kraakhan SoA that made him power-mad? 122e. Don't you think it's better to tell us Makuta's (of MoMN) real name now? I mean, you made a topic about it, and the ones who wanted to see it cleary outplayed the ones that didn't. You could put his real name in a spoiler tag so the ones that don't want to know, well, don't get to know. It would clear a lot of confusion. Especially now there are 2 Makuta's around.
133. What 2008 set do you like most? (I don't want you to give a name or something, e.g. "Toa Blue" or "Villain Red".)
144. Makuta's (of MoMN) mind is his most powerful weapon, then how come that he can't defends himself against Karzahni's visions?
155. The Toa Nuva are going to the shore of Voya Nui (the place where Makuta (of MoMN) would meet Icarax)?
166. Will we see more info about the Toa Hagah in Gali Nuva's Blog?
17Thank you.

181-1B) 10 191C) 9 202A) Yes 212b) Yes, he is a set next year 222c) He was assigned to the Karzahni region 232d) None of the above. Why wouldn't he want to lead the BOM? It's a powerful and widelyt feared organization, so there's no madness involved. He simply sees MOMN's approach as too long and too complex and too complicated -- he believes that if someone is in your way, you kill him and be done with it. 242e) No, I don't. I asked BZPer's opinion on this, I never said the name would be released here first. 253) Can't answer this. 264) Wait for the next chapter 275) No, they're not. The Nuva have no reason to go to VN. 286) I am not planning to spend a ton of time on them, but would like to do more with them in future


29As Greg stated, Icarax was assigned to the Karzahni region. (I know SV posted this fact first.) He is a set next year (another Makuta:) and he sees MoMN's approach as too long, complex and complicated.

1Hello Greg, just read the new serials:
21) Ok, so Icarax appeared, and has the Kanohi Kraahkan. Something that caught my attention was: "He said the brotherhood will be his..." Obviously he wants to take over the MoMN. The MoMN doesn't know anything at all right? 31b) If the MoMN in the future knows that, will he kill Icarax? 41c) Just a thought: If Icarax gets released as a set, a new Kraahkan will come out right? 51d) Also noted that Icarax was strong enough to take down Onua. Is he more strong thanks to the Mask of Shadows?
62) I see that Manas have come with Karzahni. However, no one says nothing about them being mutated. Are they immune to the Mutagen?
73) Are the Toa Hagah going to fight Icarax alongside the Toa Nuva in Karzahni?
84) Are we going to see an official teaser of Bionicle 2008 in the November Magazine (like 2006 Zaktan or 2007 Barraki and Mahri posters)? 94a) Also, I've seen that in November Brickmaster It has a clue to Bionicle 2008 and sneek peeks of LEGO 2008 sets. Is that clue new to us 8Not the same as the Encyclopedia)? And does the Set peeks include Bionicle?
10Thanks beforehand :), 11:n: :i: :g: :h: :t:


121) Correct 131b) I can't discuss future storyline 141c) I don't know if it is new or the same design 151d) You don't think any Makuta can take down a single Toa? It took six Toa to defeat one Makuta in the past. 162) Nope 173) Nope 184) Yes 194a) Don't recall on the clue, there will be additional set peeks I believe

201c) Does that confirm that will come out with the Mask?

211c) Yes


22IS he confirmig that? The answer in minutes... When he relpies me back :P
23EDIT: CONFIRMED: 2008 looks perfect:
#9874
1Nothing new here.
2Hello Greg :
3I have some questions and I hope you could answer them.
41)a)Will Icarax be a 2008 set? 5b)Will the Leader of the OoMN be a 2008 set?
62)Has the Makuta of Metru Nui asked Icarax to retrieve the Staff of Artahka or does Icarax do it on his own?
73)Was Maxilos built by Artahka or in the island of Artahka?
84)Does Artahka know about the OoMN?
95)Has the Kanohi Ignika shapeshifting power?
106)Why Ignika hasn't "told" (by some sort of "telepathy") Hydraxxon about the Toa Mahri so he could help them?
117)Where did Hydraxxon 2 obtained his weapons?
12Thanks in advance:


131a) Yes 141b) No 152) He asked him to do it 163) I would have to check and see what has been said elsewhere 174) Yes 185) Sort of ... like life itself, it can appear in many forms 196) His goal was to have Hydraxon fight the Barraki, which he's doing, not to create an ally for the Mahri. 207) From Hydraxon 1's weapons cache

#9875

11) So Makuta of Metru Nui has the Staff of Artakha now, eh? (Biocast: Karzahni sought "the Staff of Artakha they were carrying.") 21) Yes, that chapter actually takes place after Nuva Blog part 7
31b. If so, has he re-constructed the Nui Stone yet? 41b) No
51c. If not to part b, why not? 61c) Well, he wasn't going to do it in front of Icarax
72) Is it correct to assume that Toa Nuva Blog 6 occurs slightly before Into the Darkness 5? (Assuming question #1 is correct, of course; Blog 6 mentions the theft of the Staff while biocast 5 mentions that the Makuta/Matoro/Tuyet group carried the Staff.) 82) Actually 6 and 7 take place before this chapter -- a little confusing, my fault
93) So the "another Makuta" that appears in main future storyline is named Icarax? 103) Yes
114) Another member mentioned that the Mahri-Piraka fight is in the Cord. Can you confirm? 124) Yes

1Hi Greg. Its been a while. Which means I have lots of questions for you:
21.) In Downfall, you said the Nuva are going to go to Artahka. Does the book state why, and, if he has (or does) something to them, will it elaborate on it? 31a.) Speaking of Artahka, you also said he only had one fight in his whole life: The battle against Karzahni. What was the fight over, and was the victory for him narrow, or did it come with ease? 41b.) Has he seen Karzahni in person since this event?
52.) With the new Makuta becoming involved next year, will we possibly hear any more on the Makuta of Zakaz? Is he even alive still?
63.) If Roodaka does indeed unmutate the Rahaga, will they become the Toa they were, or turn into Turaga, considering they have already completed their destiny?

7Thanks in advance:

81) Yes 91a) It was the fight over who got to wear the Mask of Creation, and yes, it was a tough fight. 101b) No 112) At this point, too early for me to know 123) Toa. They have not voluntarily surrendered their Toa power, which is required to become a Turaga.
#9877
1QUOTE 21.The manas with karzahni right now are mutated right? 32.Is Icarax the mnakuta of Karzahni? 43.Why would Spinax attack Maxilos/Makuta? 54.The November combiner will be a sea creature of the pit right? 65.Could you describe what Icarax looks like? 76.Will we ever see Nocturn again? 87.Is their more elemental hounds aiding the MoMN? 9Thanks

101) Yes 112) Yes 123) Because Spinax has belonged to Hydraxon a lot longer than to Maxilos 134) Yes 145) He will be a set next year, so you'll see him then 156) We'll see 167) No.
17Looks like were getting a Icarax set next year: :D 18ps. I meant OoMN not MoMN so there might be confusion. 19It looks like Hydraxxon will command spinax to attack maxilos.

21whoevr said the Ignika was a he?
#9879
1What does it matter? It's just how some people are comfortable saying it. Anyway, he was talking about Hydraxon.
#9880
1Just a couple questions Greg, excuse my abruptness:
21. In the 2nd Encyclopedia, it says that Karzahni's realm has been destroyed, but in the new Nuva Blog, it states that they are pursuing Icarax there. Does the 2nd Encyclopedia entry happen after the Nuva have faced Icarax there?
32. How long has Icarax felt the way he does now; no need for complex plans etc. ?
43. I know you dislike rating questions but now that the Hagah are back, would you say that they are more experienced as Toa therefore stronger than the Nuva?
54. Has it been hinted on how the Nuva are supposed to awaken Mata Nui?
65. Are the 2008 villains connected to the BoM?
76. Something confused me today while reading DoD part 6; in part 5 it states that Lesovikk must destroy Karzahni.. but upon reading part 6, it makes almost no mention of Lesovikk at all, starting off with Karzahni already in battle with MoMN, by ripping off his sword. Where is Lesovikk in part 6? 86b. Is the Toa of Water swimming with Maxilos the re-animated Tuyet?
97. If given the opportunity, would Hydraxon II be able to recognize the Nuva if they were able to meet?
108. Icarax is going to be a titan set, is he not? Or a set at least? 118b. You said he was the Makuta assigned to the Karzahni region right? 128c. Why would he want to take over the Realm of Karzahni? 138d. Do the other BoM members see Icarax as a potential new leader? 148e. Was Icarax the one who retrieved the Kraakhan (sp?); does he believe he is far superior to Makuta of MN?
159. IF the Great Spirit were to be awakened, would he kill MoMN? 169b. In MoMN's vision about Mata Nui awakening, was he seeing what would happen should his plan fail, because I thought they wanted Mata Nui to be awakened?
1710. When the Nuva are re-released, will their masks change, or will the be in a different style as Lhikan's Hau was from Tahu Mata's?
18That's all for now, thanks for reading this:


191) Yes, because the serials were originally supposed to have started by February of this year. 202) Always 213) No. Nuva can share mask powers, Hagah cannot. That makes Nuva more powerful. 224) Nope 235) I can't discuss 2008 246a) Planning 256b) Yes 267) Eventually, he would, yes -- remember, they look quite different from when last he saw them 278a) He will be a set, yes 288b) Yes 298c) It is the place he is most familiar with and a good power base with Karzahni gone 308d) No, they see him as a loose cannon 318e) Yes, and no -- not a question of superiority, a question of thinking he has a more successful approach 329) Only time will tell that answer 339b) They do, but HOW and WHEN they want it to happen. 3410) Mask shapes will be redesigned, mask powers will be the same


351. So the Mask that Icarax bears next year is the Kraakhan? 362. When Icarax delivers the SoA to MoMN, is he wearing the Kraakhan or not? 373. Do any of the other BoM members wish to lead the brotherhood? 384. In the encyclopedia, it says that the Nuva destroyed Karzahni's realm. Does this happen after their confrontation with Icarax? 395. At the time of Nuva Blog 6, the Nuva haven't retrieved Lhikan's Hau have they?
40Thanks again.


411) Yes 422) Yes 433) No 444) During 455) No, they don't get it until they go to Karzahni.


46Next year seems very promising indeed Greg. Just a one last question though:
471. So when delivering the SoA, doesn't MoMN see that Icarax is wearing his mask, or has Icarax shapeshifted it?


481) Icarax went after the Mask because MoMN asked him to. MoMN cannot use it in his current body and didn't want it where Takanuva might get a hold of it.


49So does that mean MoMN doesn't mind Icarax wearing the Mask of Shadows, at least until he gets a more suitable body? Will Icarax's ego be boosted by him being able to use the BoM leader's own mask?


501) For now, yes 512) Icarax's ego can't get boosted much more than it already is


52Wow, so many mysteries in this storyline. Just a few more things and that is all, promise =).
531. Why can't Takanuva get a hold of the Kraakhan (sp?)? 542. Doesn't our Makuta suspect anything of Icarax? 553. By the end of next year, will Takanuva's destiny be fulfilled? And in the encyclopedia it says he fears the vengeance o fMakuta and is preparing for it. Is Makuta really mad at Takanuva for this set back? 564. Can you share anything about Icarax's past (if there is anything to share)?
57Thank you once again, I'm glad you take the time to answer our many questions Greg:


581) He could have if he knew where to look. But he wasn't in Metru Nui when the Piraka found and lost it. 592) He might, but he also considers himself powerful enough to deal with any rebellion 603) I cannot discuss future storyline 614) Not at the moment, no
