Thanks for taking the time to answer questions Mr. Farshtey

 

1. Who would win in a fight, Melding Universe Teridax or Regular Teridax in his 2003 form?

2. Is there any story signifigance to the second face on the back of the Kraahkahn? Does it represent the fused form of the Avokhii and the Kraahkahn? Is it just a shape Teridax xan shift his mask into? If you don't know what I'm talking about, the set incarnation of the mask of shadows had a second face on the top of the mask, allowing it to be worn by sets with their faces orianted normally. It vaugley resembled the mask of light, primarally around the mouth and eyes.

 

Thanks once again.

Hi, Mr. Farshtey!  I've thought up a few new questions for you:

 

  1. Were any of the major species besides Matoran (i.e. Vortixx, Skakdi, etc.) able to be created via machines, or were their numbers set to a predetermined amount by the Great Beings?
  2. Since plasma is considered a theoretical component in making force fields, could a skilled Toa of Plasma use his element to create a force field around himself (I know he could most likely melt physical attacks with plasma, but energy attacks are a different story)?
  3. Because psychometry is technically a psionic power, can Toa of Psionics perform it without needing a Mask of Psychometry?
  4. What kind of missions/operations did the average OOMN member engage in prior to the War against the Makuta? Did they mostly just deal with major crises, or were some of their members more localized, like vigilante crime-fighters?

Thanks, and have a great day!     


2. Plasma doesn't really have anything to do with force fields...

3. psionics deal with mental abilities, and psychometry deals with the past of nonliving physical objects objects.

Hi Greg, got a few more questions:

 

1: If the ocean around metru nui is liquid protodermis rather than real water, how did Toa Nokama do anything with her elemental power?

2: If great being are totally organic, would you say that it's impossible to accurately represent them with existing Bionicle parts?

3: Would their nature have changed if you had been told LEGO was making sets of them, or would you have just put them in armour or something?

4: If the great beings are scientists, then does thier race also have things like farmers and soldiers, and if so, would these soldiers be powerful enough to be a threat to a Toa?

5: Why were the glatorian fighting over energised protodermis. Did they know what it could do, or was it just a case of "that stuff's shiny, it's probably worth something"?

 

Thanks


1) Remember that to the residents of the MU, liquid protodermis IS water.

2) Well, the Agori and Glatorian are primarily organic, and we represented them.

3) It's impossible for me to predict how the set designers would have handled this.

4) No idea. We never postulated a society surrounding the GBs, and there has certainly never been any indication in story that such beings exist.

5) It was obviously an energy source of some kind.


1. So it's sort of thought based? If Nokama thought it was water, she could manopulate it? Can she manipulate actual water? Can Any ToW for that amtter?

1) I never predict the outcome of fights. Too many variables.

2) Not that I recall.

Alright, I have a few questions:
1. Did Velika succeed in his plan of destroying Artahka, Axonn, Brutaka, etc?
2.Can Velika, in his matoran form, use his Great Being powers?
3. Can Velika, in his matoran form use his mask power because he's a Great Being?
4.Did Karzahni know where the island Artahka was, even after the maps and things about it were destroyed?
5. In the Exile's tale, Malum is shown carrying a Cordak blaster. How did he manage to get one of these?
6. Can someone with a kanohi Rode, such as Axonn, see through a Baterra's disguise?

Thanks for taking your time to answer all of our questions!

1: So does that mean that Toa of water have o control over the actual water on spherus magna?

 Hello Mr Greg 

 

Who has created the weapons that were able to control the sand during the core war? the Great Beings? 

 

The Great Beings can create objects that can do something similar to magic with their technology? What I mean by "magic" it's a power that comes close to magic as telekinesis and manipulation of matter and energy and teleportation.

 

When Meserix was teleported into space by Teridax his adaptation power has worked in this environment? If so, what he looked like in this form?

3. psionics deal with mental abilities, and psychometry deals with the past of nonliving physical objects objects.


2. Scientists have been able to create miniature "plasma windows" that could, if enough energy was provided to fuel them, act similar to force fields.  While we don't have enough energy to do so currently, a Toa of Plasma might be able to power something like it, hence my question.  Of course, it's probably not feasible, as only a Toa with great skill would be able to accomplish it.

3. I could be wrong, but Wikipedia does have psychometry listed under psychic/psionic abilities, though these qualifications could be different in the MU.
