Masterpost: The Journey of Takanuva: Technorealm

Author’s note: The 'Journey of Takanuva: Technorealm' is meant to be an introduction to a broader setting that is Bionicle: Technorealm AU. Technorealm is a shared setting that has been developed through collaborative roleplays, artwork, and other pieces of fiction. It continues to grow every day through casual worldbuilding and collaborative roleplays. There is currently no plans about transforming Technorealm into a series of fics, and the 'Journey of Takanuva: Technorealm' serves a singular purpose of being the gateway for the people to get interested in the AU as a whole. It is not a standalone piece.

It is already 15th of August in Russia so I'd like to wish a happy birthday to our beloved BIONICLE AU, Technorealm

It's been 15 years. Fifteen years! I have hard time believing it's been this long since me and my husband created this - quite literal - lovechild.

If you're new to Technorealm, it's a divergent LEGO BIONICLE Alternate Universe where a lot of things have changed to cater to our tastes and interests, creating something amazing and unique.

If you wanna know more, there's a masterpost for the "Journey of Takanuva: Technorealm", which is a great entrypoint for the AU!

For those of you who's been following this blog for a while, thank you so very much for sticking around! <3

Here's to 15 more!

My friend and I have been going back and forth about your Technorealm AU. It's silly, I know, but settle this for us. Was Kikao a bit smitten with Takanuva or was it strictly platonic? Because the stoic Ko-matoran falling for the ray of sunshine is perfect.

Aww that's such a sweet ask!! Surprised it isn't sent to @technorealm but thank you all the same!

I did not intentionally write Kikao being infatuated with Takanuva, but that's definitely a sweet thought! Kikao is just extremely curious and lead a very closeted lifestyle, so seeing anything/anyone new is extremely exciting for him. You'll be delighted to know he has since become a chronicler (hence his pull toward Takanuva hehehe), and is out traveling with a group of Toa and making a bunch of new friends and seeing all kinds of things!

I love writing Kikao as very reserved and stoic normally, since it is how he attempts to control his emotions, but he has a big wanderlust, so new experiences make him drop the facade and embrace his natural curiosity and warmth. I think having more experiences than just being stuck in a frozen hole will do him good with anger management.

Kalt, my undead Vhotai made from Toa of Magnetism and Toa of Ice that released a nova blast to destroy a pirate base.

They are very sad, and most of the time sleep in a frozen crevasse, fused forever in the prison of flesh that is the mingling corpses of their components.

It is not seen here very well, but his body is broken and torn, mended by ice. Those cuts and cracks in the armor is the ice shining from within.

PSA: This blog is no longer updated

The project lives, but not on Tumblr. That is all.

[demitsorou]

I reworked one of my very old OCs into a Vhotai. (He/they pronouns)

His name is Kalt and he’s an undead lad, made out of Toa of Ice and Toa of Magnetism.

New OC I made, Jari (pronounced yah-ree). He’s a ga-matoran, captain of the Frostford - a guard stationed in the ancient city of Haule.

He’s hardworking, and loves his home. Before being a guard, he was a fisherman, and lost an eye during a Skakdi raid. During the raid, he was the one to organize and lead a counter-attack, which earned him a place in the guard, and he eventually rose in ranks to become the captain.

His ‘tattoos’ glow when exposed to water.

I was thinking about how a gun would translate as a Toa ‘tool’ with each element, and then decided to make Zaria into a metalhead cowboy with revolvers. That might also explain why he managed to kill a Makuta - cuz he had the power of GUN.

Guns shoot super weakly because there’s no actual gunpowder, more like a spring mechanism. Guns can’t shoot on their own either, Zaria needs to use his elemental powers to make ammo and make the gun work.

He looks badass but he’s actually very awkward and soft. He’s not a gunslinger or some bandit outlaw, just looks the part, a tough guy that tries his best. Has badass moments by sheer luck. I love him.

I was thinking about nuva symbols and made my own. They do not work as nuva cube.
