BZPRPG: Le-Wahi

IC: LekuaLekua landed in a crouch, his body absorbing the impact. Above him, the bat-thing who had caused his fall flew off, forced to retreat by Mawl and Xavier. There was still one more bat-thing left in the sky, though. Time for me to do something. Calling Cyclone once again, he took off towards Laz.

OOC: Quoting BSO1 here:

The Kahu species, a sub-species of the Gukko,

IC: JLJL walked into the jungle. He looked around for the Toa, Voi, who had seemed to have simply disappeared. He looked around. Well, this sucked. He continued trudging through the forest.If only they had others to help them....

IC: LekuaLekua slowed his approach as the bat-thing noticed him. Don't want to make the same bad-mistake as last time. He tugged Cyclone's reigns, bringing the Kahu to the right to begin circling Laz, waiting for the bat-thing to make the first move.

IC: Ah'ackune'mthrun"Well I'm very sorry to wake you but I was and am wondering what this building is." He thought some, "And now I'm wondering who all of you are."OOC: I would eventually like him to join actually.

OOC: That's fine, he can join no problem. But, you need to do two things first: 1) Have this conversation where he introduces himself, and 2) give me a pronunciation guide for that name. IC (Madrihk):"I am Madrihk, leader of this group, the Island Liberation Squad. We are here to establish a new settlement and an above-ground trade route between Le- and Ta-Koro. While the villages on this island has held their ground against Makuta's forces, we seek to take back the rest of the land from his troops. And so we have started here, by Lake Pala, as it seemed to be the easiest to environment work in. Later we might do the same in other Wahi."The Toa of Ice stroked the chin of his mask."That's us, and this is our recently constructed headquarters. And you are a blacksmith, you say? We might have use for one of those, if you'd be interested. What is your name, my friend?"

OOC: Ah-ack-oon-mm-th-run (Its a Chiss name) :DIC: Ah'ackune'mthrun"My name is Ah'ackune'mthrun. I do rather like the idea of joining. I've been fighting Makuta's servents scince I found myself on this island." He was glad that he had not stumbled on the secret hideout of some pirats or something. "So, yes I would like to join your little group." He squinted his eyes, trying to remember, "I lost my arm fighting a infected muaka."

IC (Madrihk)Madrihk nodded, even as he internally tried to process just what this Toa's name was."No worries, Ah-ack," he said, "we could always need another guy around, even if your arm may not be the greatest in combat anymore."

IC: Ah'ackune'mthrunRealizing the being's trouble with his name he said, "You may call me by my core name, Ackune." Taking out his blacksmith tools from his pack he asked, "Is there any place I could put my tools?" He then detached his mechanical arm saying, "Grr, got swamp water and mud in this now, got to clean it."OOC: lol he just pulled his arm off in front of a bunch of beings who are just waking up. XD I also updated his profile with a picture.

IC (Madrihk):Trying to keep a straight face as the blacksmith began cleaning his artificial arm, Madrihk glanced tellingly at his teammates."All right, Ackune, we've just started building here, but you can store your tools in this building for now until we can get you a proper forge. Our Toa of Stone left just yesterday on personal business, so it might take a little while."

IC: AckuneBecause his mask of sonar told him that there was a room in the corner that was used as storage he went there to put his tools there. He then finished cleaning his artificial arm and reattached it (Backwards). Coming back to the main room he asked, "And who is everyone else here? You all know who I am, but I don't know who all of you are." Finding that he reattached his arm backwards he reajusted it.

IC: Alfon / OnyxAlfon got up from his bed to go visit their newcomer. It seemed they were becoming popular even without having advertised their little village in progress."I'm Alfon, handsome Toa of Electricity, at your service.""And I'm Onyx, Toa of Iron. I'm also Alfon's older brother and triplet brother as you can see. Our third brother isn't here now."

IC: Ackune"Very nice to meet you two. Toa of Iron you say. Do you mind if I could have a block of metal?" He then held out his hand to shake. Adressing Madrihk he said, "Don't worry about the forge, I just need a anvil, no fire required, I prefer to heat my own metal."

IC (Madrihk):"I'm sure Onyx will be willing to help."The Toa of Ice had noticed that even though Ackune looked at each of them in turn, he appeared to look past them, in a way."Pardon me for asking," he said, "but I couldn't help but notice... are you blind?"

I.C. Vompran, (Pala-koro construction site)Vompran examined the new arrival. I wonder how many team members we'll end up with.

Gezdom finished eating his large meal before turning to Nost."Well, you ready to go?"-Mef Man

IC: Nost / Onyx"No I'm still famished. Just joking, I don't think I could eat anything else..."-As Ackune requested, Onyx created a solid block of steel for their new arrival. His elemental powers were back to their norm after a good night sleep and he was feeling much better."There you go. Enjoy."

IC: Ackune"Why I am blind, although I recently got this here fancy Anthon, I can work perfectly fine without it though. I still keep my old Miru in my bag, it doesn't work though." Picking up the block of steel with his artificial arm he heated it up with his elemental power and began to shape a sheild out of it. "There," he said, "Not as good as my last one, but it will do."OOC: His artificial arm is a lot stronger then his normal one, although slower to move.

I.C. Vompran"Nice." he said to Akune as he looked at the shield. "How much do those price-cost?"

"Good," replies Gezdom before standing up. "I'll wrangle another Gukko and go to Ko-Koro; you three can follow," he replies before running out of the restaurant and toward the jungle.Sagom places the last of her widgets on the table to pay for their meal before standing up and taking Nost's hand."Let's go," she says, cheerfully, eager to see her clan father.Ledzel nods before standing up and stretching."Karz, did I eat too much..."-Mef Man

OOC: *Face-palm*IC: Ackune"Usually 40 widgets. But because we're all part of a team they're free for you." Studying it closely he said, "Not the best one I've made, that one had razor sharp spikes and split in half for dual use as blades. Would you like one?"

IC: NostNost followed Sagom to the stables while holding her hand and helping her onto the gukko, getting ready to travel to their next destination: Ko-Koro."Well, it looks like we're going back home. My home, not yours. You get the idea."

IC (Madrihk):"I like my current blade, but I think I might benefit from changing my secondary equipment. I've been using this spike here for some quick jabs. Anything you recommend for one that prefers light weight and speed?"

IC: Ackune"Well light weight and speed, let me see. Hows about a open bladed dagger. Their very light, but strong, and there perfect if you want quick jabs. I could even attach it to your gauntlet."OOC: Um don't really know how to explain it better. Its a dagger wth a hole in the middle of the blade.Like this:

I.C. Vompran"I could certainly use a defensive weapon such as sai, or a shield."

IC: Ackune"Well before I get any more requests, I'm going to need more material and an anvil." He looked around. "I'de rather not have a anvil in here though. Do you mind if we have a seperate building for that?"

"Yeah," replies Sagom, smiling.Ledzel jumps onto the back of the Gukko before turning to Nost. "Need a hand up, or are you going to turn into bug man again?"-Mef Man

IC (Zar): Zar descended from the clouds, and found Agira on the beach. He landed softly next to him, "So, retreated, eh?" Zar asked.(Trakuda): Trakuda returned to the hut from his walk to find a newcomer, "Hey there, stranger," he said, "Name's Trakuda, only Matoran here, and a pretty handsome one at that," he chuckled. No one laughed, "Ah, whatever, who are you? What brings you to this corner of the world?"

IC: NostAs an answer to Ledzel's question, Nost turned into a tiny Fikou Spider and crawled onto Sagom, making a tiny sound indicating he was ready to go.

IC: Ackune"I'm Ah'ackune'mthrun," He replied, "Blacksmith and apparently the newest member of this little group."

IC: Trakuda smiled cheerfully, "The more the merrier," he said, before announcing to the others, "We better begin work, eh guys?"

IC: LazLaz noticed the being circling him, and created a small wall of crystal. They would fly right into it if they kept circling him.

Ledzel climbs on board the Gukko and sits behind Sagom. He places his arms around her to hold on, but still felt weird doing so. His face was obviously flushed."To Ko, then," she says out loud before looking down to Nost then back to the sky. Sagom gently slaps the reins against Seaweed and the four were soon flying in the air behind Gezdom.The Toa of Green finally managed to wrangle a bird and was flying toward Ko-Koro as well. He turns around and waves at the others before looking back to the stretch of air in front of them.Almost there. Then you Brakases will be dead.OOC: Gezdom, Nost, Ledzel, and Sagom to Ko-Wahi.-Mef Man

IC(Zand): "I can see that artificial limbs are all the rage these days." He tapped a knuckle against his mechanical leg. "Zand Giels. How are you?" He placed his axe on his back, and extended his hand for a handshake.OOC: Captain Zand Harkness...why have I started imagining him as this?IC(D): The toa of electricity continued to watch, a look of...well, something between awe and abject horror as Ackune removed his arm.

I.C. Vompran"Yes, Trakuda, we'd probably better get begin-started." The toa of the green exited the main structure.I.C. Ussalaius"Well, Jl, I'm thinking it would be kind of illogical to search the whole island for Voi. We'd probably be wasting our time. What do you say we just check the villages, then if we don't find him there, end our search?"

IC: AckuneHe shook Zand's hand with his artificial one. "Ah'ackune'mthrun. Yes they are very much, did you design your own like me, or is it someone elses work?" He asked, always critical about other people's work.

IC(Zand): "Hand-crafted after quite a terrifying experience, which I'd rather not tell. It certainly spoiled Naru's mood when I told her, and it is quite gruesome."

IC: LekuaLekua easily directed Cyclone over the wall of crystal the bat-thing had created. He did not return to his former path, however, and continued to gain altitude.

IC: Ackune"Well seeing as I'm in a good mood I'de rather you not tell me. Is it modular or a single piece of equipment?" To demonstrate he took off his hand and replaced it with his longsword.OOC: Man he's removing a lot of body parts today

IC (Madrihk):The Toa of Ice gestured towards one of the stone walls nearby."Feel free to set up your equipment in any of these unfinished huts. We'll make sure to work on that one first, then. If these are too small for blacksmith work, we can make a larger one, but that will take more time without Ledzel around."Madrihk stroked his left knuckle, trying to imagine a blade attacked to his arm."A hollowed dagger may be useful, true. Would it be possible to make a retractable one on my arm/wrist armor? It doesn't need to be automatic, just able to be locked into an extended or retracted position, so that I don't go waving a sword around all the time. I see you got... detachable parts, so I guess it's not that hard."
