So, I have the feeling that I might have a mixed interest of whether or not I want to join this or not.

IC: [Iridacea]

Does this mean he's running out of strength? Iridacea questioned as he saw Hukki retreat several trees back. I know I'm at 2/3rds myself, but if he's burned out it should be easy to defeat him.

Leaping forward to the scorched tree and then to the other that Hukki had passed over while going to the tree he was currently at, Iridacea had an idea again.

If I summon a small charge of electricity, the water will magnify it so that it will have enormous power! And since Hukki can somehow stand on water, it will electrify him. Even if he can absorb it, which I don't know yet, the tree next to him will still explode, and come crashing down on him.

Charging a small ball of electricity in the palm of his hand, Iridacea plunged that hand into the water. Almost immediately, everything within a 100-foot radius of Iridacea lit up with a bright blue crackling glow, and several trees lit up in flames. Iridacea leapt to a non-flaming tree, as his had caught fire.

Time to see how Hukki could withstand this, thought Iridacea smugly.

Naw, CM, I perfectly understand that his rose is charged; you simply said that he drew more electricity to it. But more importantly, what the heck is going on here?

Water doesn't magnify electricity; it merely conducts it, meaning that the electricity, when plunged in at that point, would move in all directions away from that point, losing power as it spread to equalize, and essentially dissipate. In fact, because of that, only the tree nearest Iridacea would have a chance of catching on fire or exploding. By the time the charge reached the tree nearest Hukki, it wouldn't have anything close to the power needed to blow it up, or even shock Hukki at all. As well, even more importantly, how does Ms. Flower Power Princess even see Hukki in the first place in the smoke of the explosion? I will withhold from replying until I get solid answers that make sense.

I must admit, I wasn't really thinking when I wrote that post. You are right on all accords, and I'm going to edit it to make sense. >_<

Ah, thanks. It's okay. I've made much more stupid posts before than that.

BTW, anyone want to have their char interact with Luuvei in Hirian? Kaze is free to go anywhere as well.

Actually Mango, I'll have One interact with Luuvei. I just need to find your last IC as him and I'll send One to him.

In reply to this:

Embo wrote:OOC: You made another spelling error; rahi should never be capitalized. You don't capitalize man, animal, beast, etc, so why should you capitalize rahi, toa, or matoran? I reviewed a story, and like you pointed this out, only to get the same response once. I agreed totally with the guy's logic.

So fail, you should have corrected the two spelling errors I did make, and uncapitalize the other two rahi.

But yeah, don't expect me to capitalize toa, matoran, turaga, kanoka, kanohi, and other random Bionicle names.

Well, those names are capitalized in all official Bionicle writings. Perhaps the Matoran use them as proper nouns, while humans would use them as common nouns? Also, "Toa", "Matoran", and "Turaga" seem to be used as titles, and "Kanohi" may be a title, too, so it makes sense to capitalize those.

Perhaps someone should ask Greg F. about why Kanoka, Kanohi, and Rahi are capitalized. Until then I'll capitalize them.

First off, I'm writing in English, not Matoran.

Agreed; as titles they should be capitalized. However, when referring to the main species of matoran, and the subspecies of toa and turaga, they shouldn't be.
