Greg Farshtey, I've got another question for you: What species does Lariska belong to? I read that Lariska was one of you favorite characters to write about, but you've never revealed what species (Matoran, Rahkshi, Bohrok, Makuta, Rahi, Agori, Vortexx, etc.) she belongs to.Thinking Many people think she's a Vortexx, and she's depicted as a Vortexx in many MOC's, however, I don't agree with that. She just doesn't feel like a dark hunter version of Roodaka. And after all, her being a Vortexx would be too 'cliche' to me.Disappointed So, will you please reveal her species? Or if you can't do that, would you please tell us what species you would personally like her to be part of? Either way, I would be able to start making my own Lariska MOC.Smile

As I lost my earlier post, I'll ask it again. Any plans on continuing at all with the Bionicle story? I've been following it since 2001, and hate to see it go...

On a side not, it's great to meet a LEGO Legend like you around on these boards, thanks for taking the time to answer our questions!

Nothing else has been written at this point, Keith, and right now I don't have the spare time to work on it.

This is my first day hearing of Greg. So please excuse my ignorance. But I have some questions for you Greg.
1. Can you give us some tips on how to write good stories?
2. Will there be anymore Ninjago sets? Episodes maybe?
3. This is the last one, when will Chima ONLINE open beta come out?

1) One of the important things is to treat your characters as real people, in a way. If you try to force them to do things in your story that they wouldn't normally do, then it  becomes hard to write, because they stop being predictable. And predicting what they do  next is part of your job as a writer.

2) Yes and yes.

3) Don't know


I have a couple more questions.

1. Why is your username ScribeGT6817

2. When will the new sets and episodes come out?

3. How did you become involved with LEGO?


1) Because it is.

2) 2014

3) Answered an ad


Just one more Greg.

Are you as excited as I am to see The LEGO Movie?


Yes. I saw the trailer a few weeks ago and it looks really fun.


trailer for what movie...the ninjago movie what do i need to do to see the trailer???


No, the LEGO Movie. Not a Ninjago movie.

Sorry Mr. Farshtey, but I have another question.

In The Doom Box, what happened to Core Hunter? One of the most powerful villans just dissapearing? Hmmmmmm...... I have a feeling he's coming back. 

 

Oh, sorry, I have another question.

Did Arctur actually die?

 

 

-DragonWolf5, the bunny ninja.


Right now, there are no plans to bring him back, since there won't be more novels after #5, sadly.

 

And yes, I believe Arctur is dead.

PS is makuta really mata nui's brother?

And in "Run or Surrender" Why was all the toa getting angry at each other?


1) No, not in terms of physically his brother. They were brothers the same way all firefighters or police officers think of themselves as brothers

2) I wrote that a really long time ago, so don't remember

There are none scheduled at this point. Unless BIONICLE comes back as a LEGO line, I doubt there will be more.

OK, new question. I have been reading Destiny War and Brothers in Arms, and I was wondering, do you even understand Vezon?


Yup


Then you're the only person in the World who does. Joking. Makes sense, you did craft him from the Crazy depths of your Mind, but it's still impressive. Joking.

 

I'd have to say Vezon also happens to be my Favorite BIO character in general. Not a lot of BIO Characters give you a good Laugh, and unless you're watching one of the old Something Something Studios Shorts with Lewa getting Ticked at Jaller and Pohatu become Goat-Netic (Joking,) Vezon is the purest form of Hilarity BIO has. I really liked how you worked his Insanity as some Comic Relief into FoF. My Top Five Favorite BIO Quotes happen to be from Vezon. Joking.


Just Kidding about that last part, but his are pretty Dominant. Joking.


That makes me think of a Question: Did you happen to have anything to do with those Old Bohrok and Bohrok-Kal Animation-Series-Es? Joking.


No, I didn't
