I can understand why Roodaka would be in it, seemingly due to the Toa Hagah Carapar too, because he hangs around with Takadox (Remember his method of thinking? If not, consult BS01). The others, however...
Oh, and Brutaka. He might've found reclamation. Still, it's open for ideas, and until it's revealed why these characters do so, I'm going to thinking of zany ideas why they are in
So this is against the BoM? Oh, even more interesting... I can't wait to find out what spurred Roodaka to turn against them. Takadox is understandable - and I'm going to assume Carapar was just hypnotized by him (Might not be...). And after that confrontation with Makuta, Brutaka makes sense too... But he's mutated. Hmm.
Spiriah would want revenge, yes...
But Vezon? I don't see how he fits into this, but, lol, it'll surely make it much more interesting.
Thanks for the preview, Greg. I can't wait to see this.
My model for this was essentially the old "Dirty Dozen" movie -- where a bunch of convicts have to go on a mission in WWII, and if they refuse to participate, they hang for their old crimes.
So here is how the team was formed ...
Brutaka is team leader because he was an OOMN member, and as gets revealed in 2008, is back working with them again. He is also, along with Spiriah, the most powerful of them.
Roodaka is participating for a very good reason -- self-interest. If the DH know she was betraying them, the BOM know it too, or soon will, and her life won't be worth a widget. So she has a choice -- join the team and have some measure of protection in numbers, or be left on her own to be hunted down by one side or the other.
Vezon -- He is the only Piraka who didn't mutate, and the one whose whereabouts are unaccounted for ... plus he's just really fun to write.
Spiriah -- The most logical choice. If the BOM prevails, he's dead.
Carapar and Takadox -- Pridak and Kalmah would never agree to serve Brutaka, Mantax and Ehlek just didn't have colorful enough personalities ... Carapar brings some brute strength, and Takadox of course needs to get the heck away from the Barraki.
Why choose these six? Because, in the end, the OOMN feels this is a potential suicide mission and they are expendable.
