810NICLE DAY

It's bionicle day, so here's some of the toa I drew as part of a commisioned set sometime last year. Looking back at when I was making these, I had thought that it was when I was stll refining the biomechanical elements of my style, but I've also found things from that time that were further down the line in detail. I still need to get to Onua and Pohatu, but haven't quite had the time to just sit down and draw a bunch of pieces for a little while - plus I feel nervous about if whether I'd manage to capture them in a comparable amount of detail haha, don't want any of them to stand out in an unusual way

Cryoshell and @essengermusic are collaborating on a new song, releasing on BIONICLE Day, August 10th. Get ready!

Toa Orde! It's been a long road to get here, but he's finally done. Surviving the Bota Magna jungle will be Orde's greatest challenge yet.

Bionicle day 2023

Since its 810nicle day today, might as well upload an actual physical build. This one is quite old as in made in 2019 old. This also used to be my mascot prior to Zero. So enjoy a glimpse of the kind of builder I was back then.

Back in sixth grade, I attempted to write my own version of Bionicle: Rahi Beasts that was updated to include all Rahi introduced since the original 2005 release. I never finished it, given it was an enormous list from Biosector01 to work off of, but a great deal of the charm for me was writing the entire thing in the Matoran alphabet, to really sell the idea that this was an in-universe book.

Of course, the mental and physical labor of memorizing the Matoran alphabet and writing it, as well as my limited Elementary skills, made the entires fairly short and simplistic. I also included drawings for the Rahi, and clearly couldn’t decide if I wanted them organic and/or biomechanical in their depictions. I’ve included translations, with spelling and grammar mistakes retained for accuracy. I’ve still got two more posts on this due to photo limits, so here’s the first section;

Bionicle Rahi Beasts

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the world of Bionicle. There are many species in the vast world of Bio.

Some include Rahi. Rahi are the wild life of the Bio universe.

Some are small, and some are enormous.

From Acid Flies, to Energy Hounds, the rahi are all unuique!

Domain: Southern Continent

Acid Fly chasing Protodites.

ACID FLY

Acid Flies are dragonfly-like Rahi. Found on the Southern Continent, they can oftenly be found flying on the continent. Their main means of defense is spitting acid at its prey and predators. They tend to go after small insects, such as Protodites.

One strange, ironic thing is that while the inside of their bodies are immune to their acid (obviously), the outsid isn't. As a result, there have been a few rare incidents where an Acid Fly has been injur by itself.

Domain: Karda Nui

An Air Serpent enjoying the view.

AIR SERPENT

An Air Serpent is a reptilian creature that can glide for short distances and, like Acid Flies, shoot acid at prey and/or predators.

Living in Karda Nui, these Rahi often terrorize the Matoran living nearby.

Unlke Acid Flies, their acid does not harm them at all.

When Makuta Antroz, Bitil, Chirox, Gorast, Krika, Mutran, and Vamprah invaded Karda Nui, most of the Air Serpents were captured.

Domain: Metru Nui

The Archives Beast as an empty room.

ARCHIVES BEAST

The Archives Beast is a powerful creature that can take any shape it wished.

Like the Krahka, it has been once proposed that both species are related.

The only known specimen was stored in the same level as the Onu-Metru Great Disk. When Toa Whenua and Nuju were searching for it, they went into the same room as the Archives Beast. Appearing as an empty room, it tried to kill them, but they escaped.

Domain: Onu-Metru

An Archives Mole on a stroll.

ARCHIVES MOLE

These small Rahi originally dwelled in Po-Metru, but had to migrate when the number of villages increased. A majority wound up in the Archives.

Of all Rahi, Archives Moles are probably among the best at working together. Being relatively defenseless against larger predators, they have learned to work togethr. They have been known to form living ladders and bridges.

When aione, an Archives Mole hides in a small area.

Happy 810NICLE Day!

I had hoped I would finally break through my Bionicle writer’s block in time for 810NICLE, but it was not to be. Instead, I will take the opportunity to announce that I’ve started reposting my Alt-Canon fic to AO3:

https://archiveofourown.org/works/40107831

Nothing new--and plans I had in the spring of getting EVERYTHING there in time for a big 810NICLE Day reveal also came to nothing, but hopefully in the process of putting things up there, I’ll reread the whole thing and get to the end with a little inspiration.

No plans to stop posting here, but Tumblr doesn’t provide a good chapter system, and this is a form of archival redundancy because, you know... *gestures at Tumblr*
