@DFTBA I was thinking that Hura and Kumanu could have potentially met each other, at least in passing. Seeing as Kumanu's on the KNRCF and Hura lives in Bo-Congro, I had the idea that maybe Hura would have seen Kumanu returning some unruly Rahi to the forest.

BIONICLE

Name: Hura
Element: Plantlife
Mask: Powerless Kanohi Rode- Mask of Truth
----- The Powerless Kanohi Rode has a similar appearance to a Powerless Rau, but lacking the line like marking, and being held closer to the face.
Gender: Male
Appearance: Hura is a small looking, compact Matoran with dark green armor. His mask has blue stripes painted near the cheek area, and his knees, fingers, eyes, and the toes of his boots are a light blue (translucent cyan in the set,) and what isn't armored of his arms and legs has a dark grey color.
Occupation: Hura works as an apprentice for an apothecary in Bo -Congro.
Description: An inhabitant of Bo-Congro, Hura lives a quiet life, away from the city's center. Most of his time mid-day is spent foraging for various plants, and harvesting their fruits, seeds, roots, stems, and leaves for the local apothecary. While he is neither the strongest or most swift of his peers, he makes up for it by taking his time, and acting deliberately. His Kanohi Rode and its twin marks remind him how plants can be deceiving. While not the most apt for physical activities, he does enjoy the outside air, and watching small Rahi amongst the trees of his home in the foothills.
Tools: Grabbing Staff- A scissor shaped handle, onto which a spoon like head is set, used to pluck and scoop various fruits and other parts of plants.

Kumanu

"I think I've seen him Bo-Congro-side before. Always bringing back some Rahi or another. Sometimes they're not even from The Green, like Spiny Stone Apes, or Nui Jaga. I don't know who tells him to do what, or how he gets them to stop moving long enough to drag them here. They scare me some times, the Rahi. Not the Barkas, no, but the big ones, Ash Bears and Nui-Jaga. A little too big for a small Matoran. Sometimes I worry about Kumanu, but the city's not worth digging in to to find out why he's about so much."

Ah, I see. Understandable. I just like to know if people are still interested or don't want to anymore.

^{1,300 AE, Two Days Until Red Star Festival, Late Afternoon}

The thrum of mechanicals running down and around the great concourse around the City Center droned on as the sun began its slow journey towards night. Atop the tower of stone, to which all looked for leadership, a single figure emerged. Unnoticed by the Matoran below, the one in dull red armor reached out, grasping what seemed to be a tube like device, and lifting it toward the mask he wore.

"Greetings to all- friends, brothers, sisters," a stately voice came from various points across the city, in homes through small radio boxes, and out into the streets from electronic horns of sound, "This is Turaga Kalu of Ta-Congro, Leader of the Great Exodus. I would like to begin by reminding you all that the Red Star Festival is only two days away," Kalu paused, allowing those hearing him to react, "Preparations have already begun, and it is with great excitement that I bring you the official location of viewing place for this year," another pause, and the sound of shifting as the Turaga drew a sealed note from his person and opened it, "The place in our Great City with the honor of hosting the ceremonial viewing of the Red Star is- Fe Congro!"

^{Ko-Congro, Same Day}

Within a chilled office in a large storage facility, full of various crates being loaded and unloaded, stacked and unstacked by Ko-Matoran, a small radio crackled out this message amidst the static, causing great distress to the room's singular occupant.
"Valmai," the figure spat, the bile in his voice palpable, "The Festival was supposed to be in Ko-Congro this year."
An aged fist slammed against a round desk, scattering small cog like widgets and notations on stone and paper alike scattering. The same hand placed itself ponderingly upon a ridged, vent like side of the white mask he wore, while the other gripped a silvery staff whose bottom arced and curved, ending almost like a hammer, but showing evidence of the inner curve being used to pry objects open.
"And who decided Kalu could run his hands through Vo-Congero anyway?" he fumed.
The imposing Turaga Talur stood, shoulders haunched forward, letting out a huff of disgust.

Thanks!

I totally understand. I'll likely start it tomorrow/when I'm on the site on a computer next.
Still need to decide on my second character. And I haven't heard from [@Xeronia] in a bit. Still interested last time we talked though.

@Blizz@Kaithas@antman0623 You guys up for it?

Still looking to add a player or two.

So how's everyone doing?

BIONICLE

I don't necessarily want to improve his vision persay, or give him a lens, mainly because I was thinking Hura would actually have poor eyesight, which is the forbearer of his methodical nature, and I'd rather him learn to own it and deal with it, rather than have his mask compensate for that and give him better sight than a normal Toa. I sort of considered him having a Rau, or, at least, somehow letting him have access to a Noble Rau. I'd consider a Kualsi over a Kakama, but I am partial to the Kakama, as Pohatu was my first Bionicle set. Also I was planning on a Turaga having a Noble Mask of Sensory Aptitude. (As a side note, I think only a Kakama Nuva would let you go that fast) I sorta want to leave the Sanok open for someone else if they want, and Psychometry might fit, but I don't think Hura would know too terribly much about injuries in order to use the Mask of Healing effectively. (Although a Sanok would help with his Toa weapon- which is a glaive that shoots a protosteel 'thorn')
To be honest, I sort of want him to come across as a bit of a functional paladin as a Toa, being a bit of a defensive bruiser, but able to use his plantlife powers to concoct healing poultices when needed, and also be able to create diversions with plant walls or something.
@Billsomething I'm still getting a circle with a minus in it for your pics. Maybe try uploading the images to an alternate source?

BIONICLE

Oh. Then I'm not sure what mask to give Hura really. Like, I don't know what really fits his personality at the moment, but I don't want him to have an Akaku or Ruru, for story reasons, but a mask that lets you see a far away place could be cool. I could still do Rahi control, or maybe give him a Mask of Psychometry, even though that was for another character/idea.
