I've been wondering this for a while: in Bionicle, when a Toa completes his/her destiny, they are turned into a Turaga. Couldn't that have been seen as a complication in the Great Beings' eyes, since they could interfere with the completion of other being's destinies? Or, are they somehow given a sort of knowledge of what everyone's destiny is so they know what not to do to mess it up?


I don't understand your question. How would them becoming Turaga interfere with the completion of other beings' destinies?


All beings have a destiny, right? Something that they have to complete at the end of their life. When Toa finished their destiny, they were turned into Turaga. So, couldn't that mean that Turaga were, in a way, aimless in what they did afterward and, if mislead, could do stuff that could throw other beings off the trail to completing their destiny (turaga have helped with some major things throughout history, such as Vakama giving Tahu the Vahi and Dume telling everyone that Mata Nui was dying)?

 

Sorry if this is confusing


I see your point. But consider this --- they achieve their destiny as a Toa, and then have the option of becoming a Turaga. Is it possible they also have a destiny as a Turaga? Just because they would not change form again does not mean there is something they are meant to achieve.

1. What organs in beings from BIONICLE are organic, and what mechanic? Can you say something more about all body, for example Toa's body?

 

2. Could you write stories at BioSector01, or at blog or something, if you can't do it at BZPower?


1) I think the only organs we definitely identified as being organic were their lungs, and of course they have muscle tissue.

2) No place to do it is only part of the issue; the main part of the issue is that between work and taking care of my daughter, I don't have the time, especially since LEGO Company isn't after me to do it.

  1. Does Makuta's Density Control powers only work on themselves, or can they change other's density?
  2. Can Makuta's Teleportation powers only work on themselves, or can they teleport anyone at will?
  3. Do Mohrek users have the ability to choose where they summon there dupes from?

Re: Chat with Greg Farshtey

Here's a few questions for you Greg:
What time is the BIONICLE story set at?
Are there any other toa apart from the ones made into sets? (I only know a few)
Did you feel sad when you had to stop working on BIONICLE?
Goodbye forever, Mountain_Mount.
We never enjoyed your topics!

So, if you find some time in the future, is that possible to end stories? That would be fantastic for all Bionicle fan's society.

Re: Chat with Greg Farshtey

Were there any further plans about Bionicle's story, before it stopped be profitable? And if they were, could you say something about them?

What can do Lhikan and other beings inside the Red Star? Are they... party, or something?

1) We have only ever seen them use it on themselves

2) I believe it only works on themselves.

 

3) What time period, yes

1) We  never assigned an exact year to it. Since it is not in our universe, it does not follow our calendar in terms of dates.

2) Some, yes, though nowhere near as many as there used to be

 

3) Yup

If they have been cured, they no longer have access to shadow power.

Re: Chat with Greg Farshtey

How looked the Great Beings? Except they were big, that is obvious. Was they bigger version of Glatorians, or what?

Nothing has happened, because the story is basically frozen where it is right now.
