Okay so not only do I think that Icarax should've iced the Shadowed One during 2008, but I think TSO should've mistaken him for Teridax when he arrived, only for realisation to dawn when Icarax immediately started throwing hands.
Also I think it would be metal as fuck if, post-kill, Icarax forced the Recorder to make one final entry in his chronicle and then stole the whole book as a trophyfor posterity's sake.

So Greg said that a Nova Blast outside the GSR would potentially be an extinction-level event, potentially enough to destroy a planet outright, but there are "safeguards" inside the GSR to contain the power.
The question I have is whether the GSR actually makes the Nova weaker, or if the GSR, the structures within it, and the inhabitants are simply built different. Like, have Toa been able to withstand world-ending levels of power this entire time? Did Icarax take an apocalypse to the face and walk it off?
Because if so I kinda understand why the GBs made Marendar.
Question what's you favorite Makuta?
Hmmm
I like Teridax a lot, but I also really like Icarax and Krika because they have some really neat personalities
Icarax: Why that's sound advice - and NOT the kind I'm looking for.

Christmas!
Advent ends before Christmas, obviously, but it feels weird to do an Advent thing and then do nothing on Christmas, so today's the finale.
This is what Bionicle is to me--no, not Icarax. I mean a cool Bionicle that's not complete: used LEGO that I've lucked into, that I've been building up. I'm one piece short (kind of a significant one), so he's using the silver Hau, which looks fairly nice, I think.
Will I ever get the Kraakhan? Don't know. I don't think I'll buy it intentionally, but we'll see.

I think it's interesting that we see Icarax fail badly in his fight with Teridax, tiring himself out by physically assaulting his heavily armoured form and allowing him to take a swift victory with his powers.
And then later in that same year, we learn that Icarax went up against another incredibly powerful character in the form of Botar, and rather than throw himself into a fight, everything seems to indicate that he just immediately goes for his magnetism powers and crushes him with a wave of his spidery fingers.
Icarax gets viewed as a dumb brute because that's how Mutran sees him, it's how Teridax sees him, and pretty much every other Makuta agrees with him, but the guy isn't stupid. He's clearly learned from his mistakes fighting Teridax (true, he underestimates Ignika later on, but the guy's probably killed hundreds of Toa before, he bodied all six of the Toa Nuva and took Gali's Nova Blast to the face and all it did was relocate him, I can forgive overconfidence when facing a Toa), he recognises that going to Karda Nui is a bad idea and initially refuses, he figures out that awakening Mata Nui is a bad idea, even if he's not aware of the full details, and he's the one that convinces Krika to actually rebel against the Plan rather than just giving vague warnings and being sad. Sure, he's not doing it for good reasons, and he's basically just trying to get someone else to endanger themselves for his benefit, but my point isn't that Icarax is nice, it's that Icarax is smart.
If Icarax has a weakness, it's being focused on achieving victory solely through martial conquest, and to his credit, he's very good at that. Before he gets devolved, he's probably the most skilled warrior in the entire MU, and even after he's injured, it takes three Makuta working in conjunction to actually defeat him, as he would've killed Gorast and Vamprah if not for Mutran's interference.
But that doesn't mean he's not smart. He might not be a super-genius like Teridax, but he was clearly sharp enough to spot what the rest of the Brotherhood missed, and he had the drive to do something about it.
It's been a while since I've seen it, but one of the posts where we made fun of the whole "Greg kills Botar off to show that the conflict is getting Serious, then realises that he still needs Botar and so introduces Botar 2" thing suggested that the target for this "Recognisable combo model character from a previous arc gets scronched to indicate that shit's getting real" should've been The Shadowed One, and damn if that idea isn't growing on me.
Like, imagine being TSO in this situation. You've been at war with the Brotherhood of Makuta for a while, as far as you're concerned, you are Teridax's archenemy, and then you get killed off by one of his underlings crushing you to very lean meat with his mind. Teridax didn't even show up to kill you himself, he sent fuckin' Bionicle Starscream to do it instead. The disrespect, the "You were never on my level" of it all, damn.
Teridax: “Everyone has Uno dipshit, it came free with your fucking protosteel armor” Icarax: “Well I didn’t have it, I have the oldest armor known to Makuta!” “No you don’t, I got mine day one you fucking nui-rama.” “Well mine didn’t have i-” “YOU HAVE UNOOOOOO. YOU FUCKING DICK.” “I DON’T HAVE UNO YOU FUCKING-” “YOU HAVE UNOOOOOO!” “I DON’T HAVE UNO MOTHERFUCKER-” “ICARAX, GO TO MUTRAN AND YOU’LL BE ABLE TO GET IT FOR FREE. YOU DUMB FUCKING MAKUTA!-” “- I DON'T HAVE TWO, I DON'T HAVE THREE,-” “ IT'S A FUCKING CARD GAME, THEY WON’T EVEN CHARGE YOU FOR IT!” “- I DON'T HAVE FUCKING FOUR, I DON'T HAVE SEVEN, EIGHT, NINE, TEN, OR ELEVEN.” “ YOU DON'T KNOW A GODDAMN THING, IT'S FUCKING UNO, IT'S FREE.”
