...Can we discuss some sort of plans, please? I'm getting bored. :(

Edit: Just remembered I have a fun idea for Mata Nui in Holon. Will post it in detail tomorrow. :3

Well, you could help me come up with a first name for Anti-Wolf. His last name is already decided (you could probably guess what it is).

Ooh... Hmm... Does Terrence sound good? It mirrors Tomas nicely, IMO.

OK, now for that idea...

Holon is a very vague place, right? So, it wouldn't be too outlandish for there to be a small, isolated island somewhere just off the coast... Perhaps one inhabited by a civilization of Delta Golett line members...

I think some of you know where I'm going with this... For those that don't, let me make it more obvious.

I'm talking a...

Holon Bionicle Homage!

Now, the idea is still vague, but I'm working some things out. Here's what I have so far...

  • Instead of a Whole-Plot Reference, (because, let's face it, Bionicle's got quite the Kudzu Plot , at least if you get into the side stories) I'm gonna go for a homage that mainly focuses on tributes to the world and characters.

  • It will take place on a small island, but said island will have a MASSIVE ruin complex underneath to mirror the Matoran Universe (Though this time it's probably NOT the body of a giant robot.)

  • The Delta Golett and Golurk will draw inspiration from both Matoran/Toa and Agori/Glatorian. As such, they will have elements of both in their society, and will have have mixed mental genders instead of having females confined to one group (Though the water group will still have the most Fem!Letts and 'Lurks).

  • We also need expies for some of the races (Makuta, Skakdi, Vortixx, etc.), Rahi, and other monsters. Suggestions for any of those will be appreciated.

  • It will probably rely less on Always Chaotic Evil than Bionicle proper did, if only because I want to see what a nice Skakdi or something would be like, and it works better with our interpretation of the Pokeverse. (That, and I generally don't like Always Chaotic Evil .)

  • Naturally, Mata Nui will be involved heavily. :P Eskay's Delta Golurk NPC may get involved too, depends on what he thinks.

Anyway, I'm looking for ways to expand this, as well as participants and people to assist G Ming (because this will be hard to run by myself, especially with the other subplots I have going on). I hope for this to be accessible to people who aren't familiar with the franchise, but if you still aren't interested that's understandable.

Anyway... Questions, comments, and especially suggestions are all appreciated.

YES! THIS IS AN AWESOME IDEA! gringrin

For the Rahi, their RL animal basis could work(Nui Jaga to Drapion, Muaka to Rhydon, etc.) I'm not sure what could work for a Skakdi, same for Makutas. And we already have something for Rahkshi, unless something that's not Dunsparce would work better.

Well... I have zero experience with Bionicle outside playing with my neighbor's toys once or twice and not knowing how to put the things together, so... I'll probably keep my distance.

I'd probably have Nicole be there, since she has Bionicle name based mons.

Straw: Muaka was a tiger.

Umbra: I'll think about the various species.

Re: Anti-Wolf names: Hmm... not quite right. Donald just makes me think of Donald Duck, and I have personal connotations with the name Terrence to the point where I'd prefer not to use it. If it helps, Anti-Wolf is a fairly dark character, in contrast with Wolf's general cheerfulness. Think the Hush to Wolf's Batman (if I may be so bold).

Ugh, I think I might have to take that break early, I just have had too much happen at once lately, and it's really wearing me out... Not sure if I'll even bother coming back in January as I said I would, though, as I find the RP much too disturbing...

Old Golett in the vein of the Old Treecko?

Wolf: Hmmm... Darker... Damian, perhaps? :P And I'm not sure... either wise Golett that never evolved, like Straw pointed out, or they aren't included at all.

Straw: Glad you like it, and your mention of your Toa Mata expies raises another point.

  • The main group of Toaexpies can't be the Mata, since Straw's got them covered in part. So, I was thinking the Toa Metru (since there's no Turaga morph) or the Toa Inika/Marhi. Suggestions?

And Dunsparce still work fine as Rakhishi. :P Krattasparce will have buddies!

DS: -hugs- What's disturbing you?

Personally, I'd go with the Mahri/Inika, though that may be because Matoro was my favorite Matoran. Probably not the Toa Hagah though, since they have less characterization in that form.

-hugs DS- Good luck with your break, whenever you decide to take it.

Re: Bionicle: Will probably send some chars to participate in that, yes. Also, would there be any plot or just the world's existence?

Dunsparce didn't stop being a thing or anything.

There will likely be a plot, though exactly what is what I'm unsure of. I'll take suggestions from anyone, though it will likely involve Mata Nui in a major role.

Okay, fanboying done. Now for serious mode.

This would be a great way to introduce my Golurk NPC.

As for the island... Take your pick.
