2I'm going to admit right now- I'm a complete n00b to Bionicle. So, I had a few questions about different species.
- 3Are Matoran/Toa/Makuta able to taste, feel, or smell?
- 4Is it possible for a Matoran/Toa/Makuta to go blind or deaf?
5Thanks so much!
6Yes to both.
7Thanks!
1Some Bionicle Q's that I've been saving, I understand if you can't answer.
21. Is the Red Star's orbit decaying so that it will eventually hit Spherus Magna?
32. Can the Golden Being make his own dreams reality?
43. Can the Mask of Life (Ignika) alter Toa so that they will be immune to Kabrua's power shutoff?

51) Not to my knowledge
62) No
73) My guess is Kabrua's weapon is setting up some kind of an interference between the Toa's brain and the delivery system of the elemental powers, so the Ignika would need to change the frequency of the signal given by the Toa to activate its powers.
1Dear Mr Farshtey,
2Have you ever heard of NaNoWriMo? It stands for National Novel Writing Month. I've joined in, and so far my book has roughly 22,000+ words.
3 I was wondering if you have any tips on writing a book. I think it's good, but it needs a bit more flavour. At the moment its more like jumping from one thing to the next within a couple of minutes.
4 I was thinking that if I could some how manage to find your contact, that when I've finished writing my book that I could send it to you and see what you think.
5Thanks a lot!
6 Your friend,

8Well, it's hard to be specific without knowing what kind of book you are writing. My books tend to be very plot-heavy and not so much with characterization, except through dialogue -- basically because of what I am writing. My books need to move, move, move or I get bored. It sounds like you are having an issue with transitions. You might want to think about where you are breaking your scenes, and whether you could alternate back and forth between one event and the next to keep suspense up. Tell me more about your issues and I will try to help.
11. Could a Toa use a Mask of Telepathy to find out the Shadowed One's name (and then keep it to himself/herself, as in Time Trap the Shadowed One is shown to hate his name being mentioned)?
22. How did Velika obtain Lesovikk's dagger?
33. How come the Vahki are your least favorite characters?
44. Who was your favorite Bionicle comic artist?
55. I know that you didn't create a name for the "Kratana" Krana/Kraata hybrids in Time Trap and Maze of Shadows. Was there anything, other than the Shadowed One and Teridax, that you chose a secret name for?
66. Did you or anyone on the story team think of a name for the gold skinned being/Skakdi fusion?
77. You said earlier that an Infected Mask on Spherus Magna would make a Matoran "like Ahkmou", since there are no evil Makuta anymore. What would that same Infected Mask do to a Rahi? Or a Glatorian?
88. Where is Nektann now, after the Battle of Bara Magna?

4Its a Fantasy/Adventure book. I'm at the end, but it starts and finishes too quickly.
5The transitions are one of the main spots I'm having trouble with at the moment. I'm reading through it, and it's too... I'm not sure what, acctually. Here's one bit of it, to show you:
6Kaylee didn't answer straight away. Her mind was whirling. How did The Lady Of the Stars know that she was going to ask who her father was? How did the Lord Shenton kill the Shadow King? How was it that no one told her who her parents were? But soon she found her voice and asked another question.
7“What is happening now?” she asked. “What is happening that I need to know about?”
8The Lady Of the Stars smiled. “Look into the Stone Mirror, and you will see.”
9Kaylee stepped forwards uncertainly. Annatar stepped back, a smile on her face. With another look at the Lady Of the Stars, Kaylee looked at the Stone Mirror.
10The water was smooth, not a ripple going over it. It reflected the wonderful sky above, which was aflame with reds, oranges, and pinks. And then it slowly began to change.
11That's just one bit, to give you a taste of it.
