2How do Matoran/Agori reproduce? Do they spawn or are they born? and
3Are Glatorian a seperate race from Agori? Or are they more toa-like, where Agori transform into them. (Based on the books and movies, I am suspecting it is the first answer.)
4Anyway, I can't believe I actually get to talk to to you (so to speak). Huge fan!
5Well, I ain't no Greg Farhtey, but I think I can help.
61. Matoran do not reproduce, but instead are sent back in new bodies by the Red Star (well, until it malfunctioned).
72. Yes.
8BTW, love your sig!

2Speaking of the antidermis and the Makuta, how were the Makuta able to use energized protodermis every time to create Rahkshi with such certainty? Wouldn't it have destroyed the antidermis/kraata some of the time/turned it into something else? And if antidermis+EP makes kraata, then why didn't that happen when the Inika shot their zamor spheres at the antidermis enslaved matoran of Voya Nui?
31) The Great Beings created antidermis
42) Remember, EP is sapient - it knows what it is going to turn things into, and kraata become Rahkshi armor.
53) Insufficient antidermis for that to happen.

I once had to rewrite forty pages of a novel because I had done that.

51) Matoran do not have biological reproduction, Agori do. Matoran were created artificially, but exactly how we never defined. (The answer about the red star is also correct, but that only applies to Matoran who have died, not new ones.)
62) They are a separate race

6Thanks, I am thinking of having Batman... Smash Joker in the script, that would really make the Rest of the story.. darker...
7#1. Marvel? I guess they are making better movies right now, I mean... Gal Gadot? REALLY?
1Hi Greg,
2Since the serials like The Powers That Be are unfinished and are unlikely to be finished, would you ever consider having another flash fiction contest on BZPower to finish them, so long as you gave us the general idea of where the story is headed? Of course, you would have to approve them to be considered official canon, but I would love to read the completed stories, especially about the Great Beings and Red Star.
3I love your work! I look forward to reading more of your works in the future! Thanks for your time!
1Hi Greg
2It's great to be able to speak with you, Bionicle was something very special to have lasted all this time, I understand you also are working on newer projects, but I'm afraid I'm here because of your work on Bionicle.
3Like a lot of people, I am holding my breath on a continuation or sequel of Bionicle at some point in the future, but the major problem seems to be how the end was handled, aswell as making it difficult to continue the story with Makuta Teridax dead, the destruction of Mata Nui was heart breaking for us who grew up on the Mata Nui storyline.
4If you were to be working on a Bionicle reboot or continuation, would you consider changing/ uncanonizing the final fights with the great spirit robot and where the Matoran Universe fell face down, to allow you to continue working with Teridax, and to preserve Mata Nui from destruction? Since Mata Nui was where Bionicle started of course, could it be a viable platform on which to base a reboot?
