1I most certainly hope that we do NOT. He was JUST introduced, people. We haven't even actually SEEN the thing yet (metaphorically). For all anyone knows, his description won't even be something that could accurately be MOCed, for example (because MOCing contests always seem to win out over art ones...). Don't jump to it so soon, jeez.

3I agree. Way to many people on this site clamor for contests.

1Just thought I might post this.
21. Since things like the Mask of Mutation or Roodaka's spinner can grant/remove/change powers and forms, is it possible that Toa Orde was mutated from a Toa of another element to Psionics?
32. After reading The Yesterday Quest, the Great Beings seem more like the true enemies here. Why didn't/don't they try different methods of stopping fighting and killing, instead of more killing?
4And one off topic question: 53. Do plan on seeing The Sorcerer's Apprentice?
6Thanks in advance . 7T3P

81) No, you can't change a Toa's element 92) Why did we drop the A-bomb on Japan instead of entering into protracted negotiations with them? The GBs had tried to end the Core War peacefully, it didn't work, that is why they created the baterra. 103) No. Not that interested, and my wife is 8 months pregnant and not really up for going to the movies right now.

1Dear GregF,
21.What will you be doing when the story on bioniclestory.com ends? 31b. Will you work and any other lego theme? 4Hi KT,
5My actual job at LEGO is Editorial Director for LEGO Club -- I oversee the magazine, BrickMaster, Club Jr. and our European editions. BIONICLE is and always has been just a side job.

6Atleast thats an original question. :D It's good to know GregF will still be working with lego.

1Hi GregF.
21) Can you describe the personality of a Toa of Lightning (not Chiara)? 32) The Yesterday Quest is only focused on the Toa Team? 43) Do you have already the name of the next serial? 53.1) Can you tell us? 63.2) When do you think that will be the first chapter, soon? 74) The hungarian-folklore characters are the people who "eats souls", correct? 84.1) In what thing or character pf the hungarian folklore do you really inspired? 95) How many names are still to know?
10Thank you.


111) I don't think every Toa of Lightning is going to have the same personality. 122) It's mainly focused on them, yes 133) No 144) Yes 154.1) I no longer have the book I used for reference 165) I have about 20 names or so for the next year and a half.
#12808
11. Can a Toa of psionics transport her mind into another body?
22. Was Toa Orde originally a female toa of psionics who transported her mind into a male toa?
33. Was the male Toa Orde transported her mind into brain dead?
41) I am not going to reveal why Orde is a male in an answer on BZP. It will be answered in story.
#12809
1Hi Greg, I was wondering about something:
2If a Toa has used all his Toa energy but he hasn't become a Turaga because he hasn't fulfilled his Toa destiny, and he is killed, will he become a Turaga as he's dying?


3No. If you don't fulfill your destiny, you cannot become a Turaga.


4I wondered if in that case your prerequisite destiny to become a Turaga would be to die, but apparently that's not so.

1Hello Mr.Farshtey, 2I have a few questions about The Yesterday Quest, wich was awsome by the way, 31. Is the robot designed to kill Toa, biomacanical like the inhabitants of the MU, or is it completly machanical like the Baterra? 42. I d'ont meen to keep bothering you about questions regarding the Barraki's species, but is it possible that some of the Barraki are Steltians, like Sidorak's, Krekka's or Gladiator's species? 53. Was Zaria native to Nynrah? 64. I need to know this for my entry for the contest regarding Varian, could I write that Varian and Orde were on the same Toa team. Because I was thinking that when Orde's team (including Varian) rescued him from Odina, Varian was cought. 75. Who is probably older, Malum or Strakk? 86. Did you get The Shadowed One's real name approved by legale? 9Thank you for your time,
101) Too early to discuss 112) I don't believe so, no. My vision of them was that they were species we had not seen before. 123) No, I don't think so, why? 134) Anyone can pretty much put Varian on the team they want, I am not doing a ton of restricting on that. 145) I would say Malum 156) It was on an approved name list, but since I am not sharing it, it's irrelevant.
#12815
1Greg's answers in bold.
2Hi again, Greg . I enjoyed the first chapter of the Yesterday Quest - I can't wait for the next. I have just one question:
3You said TYQ would focus on the new team - but will it also cover loose ends, like Voporak and the Vahi, the golden being and the Mahri, and Lewa, the Great Being, Hafu, Helryx, Kapura, Tuyet, Vezon, Miserix, Artakha, Axonn and Brutaka being on Bota Magna? (Whew .)
4Maybe, maybe not. I have one other serial I have to work on too, so I may spread revelations between the two of them and whatever the podcast is after ST is finished.
5Do you have any idea what the second serial will revolve around?
6Yes.
7Would it be okay to get an idea of what the plot will be, or will we have to wait?
8No, I don't like to give out story ahead of time.

16Well, #6 makes my quite angry. A total waste of an approved name that costed a lot of money to become legal. He might as well use the name for a character that then not tell us so he's not wasting it and so then people can stop asking.

1Hi GregF.
21) Why Mutran become insane? 32) The meeting with Tren Krom aggravate the sanity of Mutran? 43) The Mutran Chronicles were "written" by Mutran or he was only remembering in his head? 54) Mutran and Chirox were "best friends"? How is that possible if they are Makuta? 65) Mutran had some small sense of kindness to Vican? Or he was arrogant with him?
7A lot of thanks.


81) From exposure to Tren Krom, I believe 93) I considered it to be his journal 104) They were the closest to friends you can get with Makuta, in that they did not let their lack of trust in each other get in the way of being helpful 115) Makuta do not have kindness. Kindness implies you care about the feelings of others.

12Greg said that Mutran became insane because of his work with rahi, kind of confusing but not really.
#12820
1I believe he said that he was teetering on the edge of insanity more than other Makuta due to his experiments, but his experience with Tren Krom is what pushed him WAY over the edge.

11. Is TYQ the Toa team serial? 22. Will TYQ focus on one storyline or multiple ones like RoS? 33. Do the Elemental Lords have specific names or are they just called "Element Lord of Fire", etc? 44. I've been a little confused. Are the ELs from the same species as the Glatorian? 55. If everything involving putting Humpty "Spherus Magna" Dumpty back together had gone smoothly as planned and the Toa/Matoran/everyone were shut down, what would the GBs have done with Mata Nui/everything inside? 66. Is the Ta-Koro/Metru Guard still functioning? 77. Do you think the Ignika might be placed in the Valley of the Maze, since there already is a functioning defense system?


81) Yes 92) Don't know yet, I decide as I go along 103) They do have names, because they had named before they were ELs. 114) I would say yes 125) Dismantled it, most likely, for us in future projects. 136) Probably 147) Hope not, that's the first place anyone would look.

1The Yesterday Quest: 21. Why choose Gelu? I mean, there are any number of others who could have led the three toa, so why Gelu? 32. In another PM, I asked about Orde's being a Psionics Toa, and you responded by stating that a Toa's Element cannot be changed. What about Makuta Tridax's Shadow Takanuva? They were Toa of Light, but are now Toa of Shadows.
4Other: 53. I don't know if you've been asked this, but what will become of the krana? The ones not inside a Bohrok, that is. 64. Again, don't know if you've been asked this. Could an Olmak-wearer travel to the other LEGO themes (ex: HF, City, Kingdoms, etc.)? 75. Will the MU beings be able to "feed" on the creatures and plant life of Spherus Magna? Or can they only "feed" on things made of Protodermis? 86. A while ago, if I remember correctly, you suggested (through a PM to another member) the possibility that some of the known Glatorian could be related. As it has been noted that Ackar cares very much for Kiina and Gresh, is it possible that he is the (father/uncle/grandfather) of one or both of them? 96A. Are Kirbraz and Scodonius brothers? They just seem that way...
10Thanks in advance . I understand if you don't want to answer that last one. 11T3K



121) Because I like Gelu. 132) Right, but that's not just changing a Toa element, that's also draining them of all their light and making them evil. That's a lot more than just changing an element, and shadow is not a Toa element to start with. 143) Well, if they get out of the MU, they will have to manage to survive. Otherwise, they will go dormant in the MU as they did when the Turaga buried them. 154) No. We don't consider those universes to exist in the BIONICLE multiverse. 165) They fed on fish in 2001, and those were not made of proto, they were Aqua Magna fish. 176) No, it is not, and I don't recall making that suggestion. 186a) No.

1Hello, Mr. Farshtey . While you're still tackling that last pm I sent, I have Three questions.
21.) I'm writing an entry for the Sleeping Awake contest. If I were to include a village in my story which is home to a large population of Fe-Matoran, (Or any other type of Matoran) could I call that village Fe-Koro?
32.) When the Makuta recruited their Toa Hagah teams, did they send a subordinate to do the job, or did they go themselves?
43.) Since Vamprah was the Makuta of the region in which Odina is located, would TSO and the Dark Hunters have done most of their dealings with the Brotherhood through him? (And later on, any BOM attacks on Odina through Vamprah.)
54.) This may seem a bit random, but do you think Antroz is cool? I sure do. :)
6Sincerely, :akaku: X-Ray :akaku:


71) If you like 82) Most likely sent a subordinate 93) No 104) I always like villains


113.) Why not? It only makes sense that since he was the nearest Makuta, they would do their dealings through him...
12:akaku: X-Ray :akaku:


133) Nearest, yes, but not in charge of the BOM, and TSO was not going to deal with subordinates.

2There's no land on Aqua Magna. If they had been on board ship near where the robot landed, their boats would have been swamped and they would have drowned. If they were far away from Mata Nui, they most likely would have run out of food long before they could have found and reached the island.
