1Like, ZOMG:
2Hey, Greg. I just read the latest Lesovikk/Karzahni web serial, and I was wondering (I know you saw this coming)... 3Since the story mentioned a Toa of Lightning, does that mean it is an official element? Also, is it the same as Electricity, or is that still only a power, not an element?
4Thanks: :)


5It is official and it is the same as electricity, I just like the sound of lightning better

1Hi Greg
2By the way great new chaptor of DoD
31- Which color armor has Toa Nikila?
42- Are the zyglak and the massive cloud of acid related?
53- So all confirmed elements a female toa can have are water, light and lighting?
64- Can the Ignika give a Toa wings? 74b- Can the Ignika give a Toa immortallyty?
85- Did Gali cured kardas?
9That's all for now

101) I haven't decided 112) No 123) Yes 134) Yes 144b) I suppose, though I don't plan on doing that. 155) Yes

16To bad of 1 :crying:

1Hello: :)
2I need some stuff for BS01 :)
31) How do you pronunce Nikila? 42) What thing was the Gas Cloud in DoD? (You maybe haven't thought up with somethin yet or it's not relevant to the story :))

5--- 6other:
73) What is Brutaka doing right now? 84) How much do the OoMN know of the Red Star? 95) Can you reveal what or who's in the Red Star? (probably not) 106) Do the OoMN know of Mata Nui's location (not the island)?
11P.S: I really enjoy reading your books and the web serials. :)


121) Nih-kee-lah 132) Leaving that a mystery for now 143) He is fighting Makuta 154) Zip 165) Nope 176) Nope

1I have a few questions for you Mr. Farshtey
21)I just read Birth of a Dark Hunter for the first time yesterday, and I have to say one thing that surprized me was the simple fact that Lariska and Nidhiki were so close. (About as close as I imagine Dark Hunters could be) In the scene where Nidhiki gets transfomed she runs away, Is this just because she couldn't bear to see her friend in so much pain?
32)If she could, would she try and reverse Nidhiki's transformation? 42a)Even if it might cost something to her? (not another arm of course but mabey a couple of fingers)
53)Did Nidhiki ever try to get revenge on The Shadowed One after this?
64)Did Nidhiki have any good left in him? It almost seemed like it there for a second.
75)Does The Shadowed One do what he does because he just enjoys being wicked or does he actually see some pupose in it.
86)Some of the Dark Hunters seem to have powers so extream I honestly dont see how even a Makuta (or even ten for that matter) could win against them, Devestator for example, I've looked through all the Makuta's powers and can't find one that would work on a being that can turn into sand. So why are the dark hunter's group weaker then the OoMN or the BoM?
9Thank you for your time.

101) Well, she was the one who recruited him, and what was done to him was pretty horrible, wouldn't you say? 112) I doubt it. Besides, he's dead. 123) Nope 134) No, I think what Nidhiki missed about being a Toa was the adulation. It wasn't about doing good for him. 145) There's always a purpose in it. After all, if you are going to let your members just defect whenever they like, how do you maintain any discipline? What he did to Nidhiki was his version of what any army does to its deserters, and for the same reason. 156) Oh, I can stop a being made of sand with a Makuta power ... laser vision. Lasers give off heat. Marry intense heat to sand and you make glass. Not to mention all the mental abilities Makuta have which Devastator has no defense against.


161)Yeah but you could also say Lariska lost the war because of Nidhiki, so honestly I would have thought she wouldn't like him...and for someone like Lariska, well she seems too tough to run away for something like that, but I suppose if she really did care about Nidhiki... 172)Doubt the first part, where she wouldn't have to give up anything, or the second part? 183) :blink: ...I sure would have: 194)Yeah but at one point he I thought he said he missed Lhikan and the other toa, and missed being with people like them because they all actually cared about each other and have a sence of brotherhood, as apposed to the dark hunters who have nothing of the sort. 205)I meant in general what he does, not just what he did to Nidhiki. 216)I get the mental powers (I honestly thought at first that his mind would be dissapated enough, like Zaktan's, to avoid a mental attack) but as for the turning into glass thing, well if you've seen Spiderman you'd know that that didn't work on Sandman...he just shattered himself and used the tiny glass peices as though they were sand.


22I see what you're saying, the DH's seem to have a lot of deus ex machina powers, but I suppose the story needs that to make a 1000 year war with the BoM credible.
23But looking over the Rahkshi power list, I see much that a Makuta could use. Using your example of Devastator, I see weather control, cyclones, plasma, gravity, sonics, and the full array of mental abilities. Remember that Makuta, especially MoMN, seem to be very crafty and inventive.

24Weather control and cyclones wouldn't defeat him, just stall him for a while, I doubt gravity would work, he'd just slither across the floor and then crawl up the Makuta's leg, plasma would have the same affect as laser vision, so I guess it would work if Greg says so, I dont see how sonics would have any effect on sand, mental abilities Greg already explained, I just figured if you could break apart into sand then you'd have to attack each part seperatly because I figured each grain would have it's own piece of Devestaters mind and so while it would work eventually, I figured by the time you did it the sand would have crushed you. Guess I was wrong on that one though.
#10365
1You can also use magnetism to keep his grains of sand together. 2BTW, hadn't Greg stated that Lesovikk's team had been killed by a group of Zyglak? 3Khote
#10366
1He did, Khote, in a topic a while back. It said that Lesovikk's team was killed by wandering Zyglak. 2I wonder if this is an inconsistency, or there is a reasoning behind it.

11. What is the difference between the Toa Mahri's mission and the Toa Nuva's mission ('07 only)
22. Can Gadunka (Rahi, not character) only be found underwater or are they on land too?
33. Do the Mahritoran know that some Voyatoran are still alive, or do they think that they all died when the island broke?
44. If the Jan. Toa and villains are called Phantoka, will the summer Toa/villains share the same name as well or will the Toa name siffer from the villains?
55. Have Toa of Stone always been the strongest in a team of Toa? 65a. Has anyone in a Toa team been the leader besides Toa of Fire? 75b. How many Toa teams are still alive?
8Thanks a bunch Greg:


91) There's a huge difference. The Mahri's mission is to save his life; the Nuva's mission is to prepare the universe for his awakening. 102) Underwater only 113) They don't even remember the Voyatoran or Voya Nui. 124) No, it will be another umbrella name 135-5a) Impossible to answer an "always" question, because we don't know the make-up of every Toa team that has had a Toa of Stone/Toa of Fire in it 145b) Not something I have worried about just yet



155a) Jovan was a Toa of magnetism and the leader of his team.
#10368
1Hi Greg
2Some questions: 31- In the movies we see toa and others putting things (weapons, masks and more) at their back and it suddenly dissapears, can they do that to in the story?
42- Can there be male toa of lighting? 52b- When will you reveal what color armor toa of lightning have? The next chapter of DoD maybe?
6That's all for now

71) No, that was done for the movie only because otherwise every time you had shot of a Toa from behind all you would see was his tool, if he carried it on his back. So they did it that way. 82) No 92b) Don't know yet
#10369
1Well, it's not real. And Lesovikk's vision obviously didn't happen the way it did in real life. I guess Karzahni's mask can show alternate pasts as well.

4Well, it was an alternate future, so maybe in this one it was a cloud of acid not a crowd of Zyglak
#10371
1I read all the new BIONICLEstory things today and I hane a few questions
21) I thought Lesovikk's teamates were killed by Zyglak, what gives?
32) I'm sure you've already got zillion's of questions like this, and I'm sure your going to say that you can't answer it to all of them, but is the living thing inside the Red Star, Mata-Nui? 42a) If not then is it anything we have heard of before.
53) Did someone kidnap Lewa?
64) On the "Heart of the Visorak" I have a few different ideas. 74a) Does it have something to do with controlling the horde? 84b) Can it cause mutations? 94c) Cure them? 104d) Is it a weapon of some sort? 114e) Is it dangerous?
125) Kardas seems really down on his luck, first he lost to the Inika, then to Tahtorahk, and now to the Borahk, is he destined never to win a fight.
136) Will Kardas remember Gali as someone who saved him and mabey come to help her at some point?
14Thank you very much:

151) Changed my mind. 162) No 172a) No 183) No 194) I am not going to reveal this yet 205) Hey, perils of being a bad guy, you lose a lot 216) I doubt it. Rahi aren't noted for their long memories.


221)O.K. 232)Well that's good to know 242a)AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH: 253)So then where did he go? 264)Fine. 275)If bad guys always lost then we wouldn't be in this mess. 286)Why not, that's what happens with animals in our world.
29Edit: Greg sent me this just a minuet ago
30Hey King,
31I gave you kind of a flip answer today to your first question, for which I want to apologize. You're correct in saying, "Hey, wait a minute:" on the zyglak thing ... that's what I want readers to do. Because the fact that the acid cloud WASN'T what killed his team is going to wind up being important before the serial is over.

Because the fact that the acid cloud WASN'T what killed his team is going to wind up being important before the serial is over.


3No problem at all. But it gives me a theory. I'm guessing that the zyglak finished the toa off after the acid cloud weakened them, but the vision is going to show Lesovikk that the zyglak would have killed his team regardless of what he had done, thereby helping him to move on. (Obviosly this wouldn't be Karzahni's purpose.) Am I close?


4Certainly a nice theory, we will see.

4Tesla? Absolutely not: Sorry, I've read a lot about Tesla, and I really like the guy. Tesla invented alternating current; he fought against the smear campaigns of Edison (who wouldn't let his direct current phase out of common use) aimed at his superior invention of alternating current and eventually succeeded in popularizing its use, thank goodness. Sorry -- I just think its worth gloating my knowledge once in a while.

11. Are all Matoran of Lightning female or can there be males like the Avtoran? 22.

How else could Gali see what she saw? 73a. Will we learn more about what she saw in detail in the next addition? 84. Will we learn Lewa's new mission in he next addition? 95. Will we learn about the Heart of the Visorak next addition?
10Thanks.


111) Female 122) C - and I will give you a scoop, it is beings, plural 133) She was wearing the Mask of X-Ray Vision at the time 143a) Nope, but it will come up later in story - it's also a clue to other things 154) No, probably in chapter 10. Chapter 9 is about what the staff is for. 165) Again, chapter 10

17This is the first time in a long time I've gotten some decent answers from Greg. Very interesting...
182C rules out Mata Nui, but its interesting nontheless. *coughGreatBeingscough*

11Thanks Greg:)

121) Yes 132) Yes 143) No, Book 8 was written long before the combiner was built 154) I'd have to check, it may not be 165) I don't know that it was based on anything, just an idea we had 176) No idea.

1some nice answers on takanuva, especially the nuva blast is interesting and the holographic projections.
2hey greg.
3about takanuva's powers:
41) would he be able to create holographic projections of himself? 5a) somebody else?
62) could he bend light around him making him invisible[like in starcraft (2) but you still can see that light is bent around something as around the edges its "blurry"?
73)can he alter his appearance[in shape by bending light? 8a) nd his color?
94) what would a nova blast of a toa of light be? a massive flash of light incinerating things and blinding everyone?
105) could he make a tiny laser to cut through any metal with ease? and a very large one?
116) would a ToL be able to produce a small weak laser to pinpoint an attack or to mark an opponent for his fellow toa?[or anyone else
127) about takanuva trying out increased speed and solid holograpgic projections: is a ToL capable of doing so, is takanuva capable of doing so, and has takanuva succeeded?
13thanks in advance and good luck with the books, comics and web serials.


141) Possibly insubstantial ones, yes, with training 152) No 163) Yes 174) Yes 185) Yes 196) Yes 207) Since he hasn't had any success doing either yet, we don't know that he is capable of it

1Heres a few questions I asked Greg:
2Hi, 3I have a few questions that I've been trying to answer but just can't. I was hoping you could help me.
41) What are the rules for what Vezok can or can't copy? Can he copy elemental powers?
52)When Avak had Kopaka Nuva in a fire cage, Kopaka kept trying to freeze the bars. My question is: Why didn't he just create a block of ice over Avak's head and knock him out? Can you not use powers beyond th ecage?
63) On a scale of 1-10, what would you rate Gadunka in storyline importance? (: is not important at all, 10 is Toa Mahri or Barraki important)
74) Would Kopaka be considered the "leader" of his mini team(Lewa, himself, and Pohatu)?
85) Will the 2008 Nuva sets be able to combine with eachother, or just their matoran?
9And also, I was wondering:
10Do you plan to write Bionicle until it ends (whenever that may be)?
11Thanks a ton (these qusetions were really bugging me),
12Toa Krogo


13Here are his answers:
141) Yes, he can, but he has to see the power in use to be able to absorb it. 152) Kind of pointless to make a cage that will allow your prisoner to shoot at you from inside it. 163) Probably a 5 or 6 174) Since this is a 2008 question, I can't answer it 185) Just their Matoran 196) Not really my call to make, that will be up to LEGO


20Here are some more questions (and answers):
21Hi, 22Nocturn is one of my favorite Bionicles and I was wondering where you got the idea for him. ALso, why did you make him Ehlek's leutenant? Aslo, why isn't he considered a Barraki, considering the fact that he could probably bet one of them up easily?
23Thanks, 24Toa Krogo

251) You mean for the character or for the set? 262) Well, since the other Pit prisoners all beat it out of the area, the only reason for him to remain behind is if he was working for one or more of the Barraki. 273) Well, I am sure a lot of Napoleon's soldiers could have beaten him up too -- physical strength is not what determines a good leader.

281) I meant both. 292)But why did he choose Ehlek? Was there a reason?
30Thanks

311) I don't know from a set standpoint ... from a character standpoint, I saw him as big and powerful and probably not all that bright. 322) I always saw Ehlek as the most insecure of the Barraki, since initially he was the one who was out of his element on the surface. I think that gave him a sense of "otherness" with the rest of the group, which continues even though they are all water-breathers now. They all want to go back to breathing air, and that's not what he would wish for. Given that, I felt he would be the one most likely to recruit a lieutenant to have some back-up.


33Here is some more:
34Hi, 35I recently read on Wikipedia that Vezon followed the Toa inika into the stone cord, and was captured by a group of zyglak. I also learned that the Spear of Fusion was destroyed by Jaller. Please tell me this isn't true: 36However, it probably is so I was wondering:
371) Because the cord was destroyed by the Mahri, does that mean Vezon is dead? Please don't let that be true:
382) Are there any copies of the Spear of Fusion in existence?
393) Will we ever see Vezon in the storyline again?
40Thanks, 41Toa Krogo

421, 3) If anyone could talk his way out of the Zyglak's clutches, it's Vezon. I may bring him back next year, if I have room on the web, we'll see. 432) No, but the spear is intact again. Vezon used its own power to fix it


44If you don't know what Invasion is, here is an explanation:
45Hi, 46I've heard about something called invasion. I'm not asking you to reveal anything important, but I was just wondering: What is it?
47Thanks, 48Toa Krogo

49Back at the beginning of 2007, there were supposed to be four novels this year -- Books 6, 7, 8 and 9. The schedule then got changed when I was about a third of the way through Book 7, which was titled Invasion. That book got taken off the schedule -- Book 8 became the new 7, and Book 9 became the new 8. So when people refer to Invasion, they are referring to the book that did not get finished/published.


50Here is some more random questions and answers:
51Hi, 52I was wondering if you could answer these questions for me please:
531) I know this is irrelavent to the current storyline, but I need to know this for my short story I am writing. When were Axonn and Brutaka sent to Voya-Nui?
542) When was it that Axonn went bad? Was it when the Piraka came, or was it before that?
553) Did the Brotherhood of Makuta help the Dark Hunters in the Toa-Dark Hunter war? If not, then did they do anything i it? 563a) Likewise, did the Order of Mata-Nui help the Toa during the war?
574) Would it be possible for Brutaka to use his maskto enter a "mirror universe" of the Bionicle one? 584a) If not, then would it be possible for him to go into any other universe?
595) What is the name of the Order of Mata-Nui's base?
606) Is there any island sin the zone of darkness, or is it just empty with creatures exiled to it?

61Also, just wondering,
627) Will the Gali Nuva blog be finished by the end of 2007, or will it go on to 2008?
63Thanks in advance, 64Toa Krogo

651) I don't have an exact date 662) Axonn never went bad 673) No, why would they? The BOM was still on the side of Mata Nui then, so why would they help the Dark Hunters 683a) No, there was no reason for them to do so. Toa were handling it fine on their own 694) Brutaka can enter pocket dimensions attached to this one, we have no proof he can enter or not enter another universe entirely, nor is there any evidence that there is a mirror universe. That is a Star Trek thing, so doubt we would do it. 705) Their main base is on the island of Daxia 716) No, no land masses that we know of 727) The blog story gets wrapped up at the end of this year


73Sorry, I meant when did Brutaka go bad?
74And about when they got sent to Voya-Nui, I was just wondering if it was before the Toa Dark hunter war?
75Thanks, 76Toa Krogo

77Brutaka started losing faith a long time ago, but he didn't actively work against the interests of the Order of Mata Nui until after the Piraka came.
78And yes, A and B were sent to Voya Nui long before the Toa-DH war. The war was only 3000 years back.

1dear Greg, 2i'm a new member and i have some questions i would like u to answer 31) would makuta of metru nui if he still had his armor be able to go into the pit and not be mutated 42) is maxilos able to go on land 53)does the mana-ko have any thing to do with ice, i mean it has the prefixe ko in it which has to do with ice 6thank u greg and if u could would u send me a note letting me know when u responded to it 7thank u again



8GregF rarely ever visits this topic, so you need to PM him here :) I can answer thsoe though :) 91) Nope 102) Yes, the Maxilos robots were designed for land :)3) Just a coincidence I'd say (not sure about that though)

11I'm not sure about number 1. His armor is just a mechanical suit, much like Maxilos, who has not been mutated. I don't think the mutagen transforms inanimate things, like rocks and robots, so Makuta, with or without his armor, would be unaffected.

12No, robots are affected, just at a much, much slower rate. Greg said so himself, in a quote on this very topic, I believe. Doubt I could dig up the quote though, I don't feel like visiting all those pages.=D

13greg said that total robots wherent affected and makuta armor isnt total robot. 14also i asked greg if makuta where affected by mutagen he said that they where. 15also got a little info

16a question. if a makuta would be mutated in the pit. would he be able to shapshift himself back to his normal form?
17In the current story, no, because Makuta can only shapeshift when he is in his own armor. He's not in his armor, he's in the body of Maxilos, so he can't shapeshift at all right now.
18i didnt mean makuta of metru nui
19Then the answer is probably no, because the mutation would most likely cancel out his shapeshifting abilities.
20hope this clear things up

21Very interesting.......... Does this mean that Icarax can't shapeshift, being that he entered the pit where the mutagen was?
#10396
1Got these from Greg a couple days ago. I would've posted them then, but I was expecting a reply to another message that I now believe had been eaten by the server. So, here they are:

2Hi, Greg. I usually have lots of things I want to ask you, but I seem to have forgotten them (go figure). So I'll just ask whatever I can think of:
31) See quote below:
47. What was in the zamor shere Axonn gave to the inika to frezze vezon in time with?
57) It basically had some of Axonn's power in it and was able to create a stasis field

6So, that means creating a stasis field is one of Axonn's powers?
72)In MNOG2, there were lots of Matoran with names that had not been cleared legaly. Are these names official?
8Thanks,
9~CN


101) Yes 112) No. If they aren't cleared legally, that means we cannot use them in BIONICLE, which makes them not official. The Matoran themselves and what they did in the games are canon, their names are not.

12Well, The first was a little more valid back when I asked it. As for the second one, I was just hoping I could pick some info off Greg, didn't work out....

22Icarax didn't enter the pit, Makuta and Matoro went to the water near the surface to talk to Icarax.

23Yubel

24Actually, according to Into the Darkness:
25Nor had he displayed any particular emotion when he and Matoro had met with Makuta Icarax, who had brought the Staff of Artakha to the waters above the Pit.


26Icarax was in the water, just above where it was mutagenic. Besides, if they swam all the way to the surface, the immense change in pressure would've killed Matoro.
#10399
1I think it still means the surface of the waters above the Pit. I'm fairly certain Icarax did not enter the mutageneous water. otherwise he would be a water-breather now, and as a result still in the ocean.
2Edit: Sorry, didn't see your second set of comments.
#10400
1Asked these for my BS01 buddy, Exo Malakai. :)
2Hi, Greg. I have a friend who doesn't have a BZP acount and asked me to PM you his question:
31)You had once said that we would learn of Tuyet's tool in Into the Darkness, but so far, we heard nothing. Will this info on her tool come out in a later chapter, or was the part that mentioned her tool cut?
4Thank you. 5~CN


6At this point, it seems unlikely it will make it in, but you never know.


7Shame....
