It’s his special girl’s party and everyone is going to have a good time or else 🔪
Happy 810nicle, one and all! Little something different this time around-- G2 again, this time the Elemental Creatures. This was a concept I was quite fond of-- beasts with Toa-Tier power and at least Matoran-level intelligence that could mix and match their elemental powers with those of their Toa allies. I opted for a wider spread of animals as bases this time around, seeing as Bionicle on the whole has a bit of a problem with associating any animal with the desert outside of "Scorpion" and Terak and Melum were functionally the same, set-wise.
Profiles under the cut:
At first glance, Terak is decidedly unimpressive. Small, soft, and entirely blind, Terak is reliant on an enhanced sense of smell and the ability to feel the tremors in the earth to navigate the world around them. Do not let their size fool you, however-- they are no less powerful or resilient than any of the other Elemental Creatures, able to rend the earth asunder with their mighty claws, not unlike Onua himself. Of all the creatures Terak is far and away the most placid, demonstrating a fondness for tummy rubs and other acts of affection.
Ketar only associates with the Toa out of convenience. Gruff and standoffish, Ketar prefers to do things their own way without anyone else, Toa, Turaga, Matoran, or even the other Elemental creatures trying to prod them in any other direction. Naturally, they chafe under the company of the sociable and open Pohatu, whose insistence on working as a team runs counter to Ketar's entire MO, and barely seems to notice when his serpentine partner starts gnawing on him in protest.
Uxar is far and away the friendliest and most open member of all the Elemental creatures. Deeply curious, she skirts the closest to Matoran civilization, and deeply enjoys playing with the inhabitants that give her the time of day. Only problem is she doesn't entirely know her own strength and is likely to tear down entire trees if she gets too excited. Fortunately, she makes a solid partner for the outgoing and energetic Toa of Air Lewa, who's more than capable of tanking her brand of roughhousing.
Melum is the strongest of all the elemental creatures on a physical level. A beast of burden, Melum acts accordingly, carrying what the others can't with quiet dignity and determination. In leiu of traditional Toa tools, Melum's enormous horns act as a channel for their elemental power, charging and dispersing powerful blasts of ice. Though largely well-mannered, Melum has a bad habit of chewing on loose fabric on anyone who happens to be standing nearby.
Ikir is a big bird who fully believes himself to be the greatest creature ever put on the island. Strutting about with all the arrogance of a peacock, Ikir will show off at every available opportunity, and particularly likes to demonstrate his flying skills, shooting jets of flame out of the exhaust points on his wings. This grandstanding attitude, not to mention penchant towards confrontation, often puts the bird at odds with Tahu, his designated Toa partner. The irony that he is prone to the exact same behavior is lost on Mata Nui's resident Toa of Fire.
Akida is the largest of the Elemental creatures, big enough to serve as a steed for most of the Toa, and also the most enigmatic and elusive. She comes and goes as needed, rising out of the murky depths to assist and vanishing just as quickly as she came. Though undeniably powerful, this unpredictability can prove frustrating, especially to Gali, who often finds herself struggling to keep her own team together.
Umarak the Hunter
Legend tells of a dark figure who prowls the wilds of Okoto alone. This dreaded figure of myth and legend has been seen chasing the very elements themselves, combatting them, only to just as quickly flee after snatching a fragment of the elements. And each time he returns to fight, to hunt, he always stays longer, and leaves with more in tow.
Umarak the Hunter is a feared deity of Okotan legend and myth, and like many of these supposed fables his existence is very real and very tangible. For centuries he’s hunted and pursued the six primordial Elemental Deities, slowly draining portions of their energy bit by bit through countless guerilla attacks and ambushes, all with the purpose of spreading his darkness throughout Okoto and beyond.
In the time before time, there existed shadow, a state that all six elements when combined could default into. It was a pure essence, relevant and existing as far back as the void, with connections and strength towards it. And from this mass of encompassing darkness, was birthed a thought and instinct to spread, and from that desire came a mind and name; Umarak.
Umarak, Deity of Shadow, sought to spread his darkness across Okoto and consume all with it. He besieged the island in its earliest youth as a mostly rocky, barren land with a few cities or ruins here or there. In opposition, the six Elemental Deities rose up to fight him; Ikir, Ketar, Akida, Uxar, Terak, and Melum. The battle was fierce and raged across Okoto, ravaging the island, but still Umarak could not be defeated.
what kind of fidget spinner is this
So I’ve made a bunch of diverse and interesting creations over this past year, ranging from G2 rebuilds to full-scale original creations and from STARs to Standardized Revamps. I like to think all the content I put out is both aesthetically-pleasing and complex enough to make following my blog a worthwhile endeavor but here are some of my personal favorites. I believe that among this line-up is my potentially greatest creation yet.
Which creation deserves the honor of being the greatest BTD27 MOC of 2016?
Hi! I love your XS future au, and I was so excited when I saw you posted another drabble! I wanted to ask, in the next generation when Omi and Jack both have students of their own, do they still play chess? Do their children students know about, and if they do how’d they find out? And how does THAT frenemy relationship differ from Clay and Jacks? Has clay ever shown up for a friendly battle only to catch Omi and Jack already playing chess? Sorry for all the questions I’m just excited
Thanks for all the questions! In short, the Xiaolin temple’s new Master and teacher of the monks is Master Wong. While Jack has his three students.
The OG monks all went down different paths, while Clay finds himself guarding a rift in the middle of nowhere, Omi finds his own temple! Though he’s on a walk around the world in search of a certain someone- he is accompanied by his protege and Raimundo and Kimiko’s granddaughter Mai
Unfortunately, this means that the OG crew is quite busy and can’t be in contact as much as they used to. All the better for Jack since he has less distractions
Couple days ago, I unveiled my spin-off Heylin kids, now it’s Xiaolins turn
(L to R)
Leilani Johnson- Xiaolin Dragon of Water from O’ahu Hawaii, designed to be Omi’s foil. Favorite SGW is the Orb of Tornami
Akida- Xiaolin Dragon of Earth from South Africa, an orphan that traveled the world before landing at the Xiaolin temple. Expert in SGW and his favorite is the Third Arm Sash/Ju-Ju Flytrap
Jane Doe- Xiaolin Dragon of Wind. An amnesiac who woke up on a deserted island and used their powers to get to the mainland. Favorite Wu is the Wings of Tinabi
Elemental Deities
It is said that in the time before time, nothing existed except for void; But from void, came Life energy itself. And Life energy, due to its fluidic, ever-changing nature, inevitably transformed by splitting itself into six primary components; The primordial elements.
Earth, fire, water, stone, jungle, and ice- These six forms of Life acted as the very basis and foundation for reality itself. And from these six foundations of energy, came consciousness, minds that were born from the pure energy of these souls- For Life energy, if powerful enough, can spawn individuality and personhood.
Enter the Elemental Deities, the embodiments of the six primordial elements themselves. There was Ikir, of Fire; Melum, of Ice; Ketar, of Stone; Akida, of Water; Uxar, of Jungle; and Terak, of Earth. The six Elemental Deities, composed of pure elemental energy itself, spread their essence throughout the void, intermingling their souls with one another and creating new forms of Life. From these forms of Life came other deities, but for the most part, the Elemental Deities remained the most ancient and primordial.
Together, the Elemental Deities crafted the island of Okoto, and as other beings began to spawn from the sacred land, the Deities assumed roles as literal forces of nature. They were impartial and neutral, having no need nor concept for mortal concepts such as ‘good’ or ‘bad’… They just were.
