Kyron's Story Part 1 March 24, 2011 - 16:33:50
Kyron - Creation, Expansion, and Deletion
    ZZT
Kyron’s first appearance was in a game put out by a company called Epic Mega Games (They would eventually go onto release Unreal). Being that this was a game engine that used ASCII characters for graphics Kyron was the same as 99 percent of protagonist for games made with ZZT, the smiley. This means he received little to no physical description until later, but what was established was his fighting style (one primary sword which could drain an opponent of energy and a second more powerful that could only be used for a limited time) and his back story.
The game was much more grandiose in scope than execution. The two sword system only worked in boss fights otherwise you were stuck with the first sword, Phillio. The game was clunky, linear to the extreme, dialogue heavy, and boring. I also am not a very good artist especially when you have to work with small rectangular blocks to make the art. So it looks like something vomited on the screen. As a game I think it fails miserably, on a play through for this document I found myself constantly wondering why I made various features the way I did. So the only good thing about it was the story and characters. After this I began to assemble the story of Kyron into a much bigger universe known as Kuwnearth. I established Kyron was still a half breed but now instead of an alien race and humans he was a cross breed of Carv (The defender class of Kuwnearth) and Immortal (The chronicler or historian class) more on these later.
The final thought on the whole thing is man what was I on at the time?
 
    Crossover
A project originally conceived by a small group on the BZPower forums would be the next appearance of Kyron. This would be where he gained a physical description and a bit of fleshing out.
The project was suppose to take non-Bionicle characters we had and then in a round robin writting style weave them into a Lego Bionicle  fan fiction. I was eighth of ten people involved and saddly we got to part 3 and it fell apart. So my character hadn’t even been introduced. I had it moslty written and it became the basis for the much bigger project, the “Books of Ender”.
The plot of the project involved a warrior from each of our own fictional universes being drawn into the bionicle realm by some power. They arrive to find the Toa missing and the island deserted except for shadowy ghost. The plot from their was up to what we wrote. The second chapter of “Book of Ender” is almost a word for word replica of my intro for the project. So in the end the project failed, but it allowed me to flesh out a rather flat character.

    Book of Ender
The Book of Ender was ambitious. It took into account and gave a brief over view of the plot from the game while fleshing it out, then used the intro piece for the project as a spring board to become its own entity, and in the end became a very strange piece that allowed me to develop what has to be one of the more unique and complicated powers in Bionicle fan fics, Ender.
What follows is a chapter break down of the book.
  1. Kyron: Brothers blade, Fathers Blade

A brief tale of the basic events from the game with modification to make it fit the world it now resided in.
  1. Summons

While visiting the temple of Carv, Kyron finds himself unsure what he should be doing when an acolyte mentions something weird in  the catacoms. He goes to investigate and is rather violently  dragged out of his own universe.
  1. Mask

Kyron wakes up to find himself in a jungle and witnesses a huge creature terrorising a smaller one. He is confused because they are all made of metal. He proceeds to kick the bigger creatures butt until he has to take a blow to protect the smaller creature. his hand falls on a mask activates it and he transforms. now his swords won’t function and he gets trashed.
  1. Toa rebuilt

A one armed and badly damaged Tahu shows up and accidentally reveals Kyrons power of Ender transforming Tahu  allowing him to drive back the big creature.
  1. Hiding

Tahu adjust to his new form while kyron does likewise the take the matoran (smaller creature) and much plot exposition happens in a cave. Kyron rebuilds Lewa and Gali, but the three Toa note that their forms are completely wrong (Gali has been turned into a wheeled creature)
  1. The sword breaks

Kyron forces the power of phillio and pateras to activate through sheer forcve of will but pays a terrible price when phillio is shattered. On the plus side the Daemon’s Krana like mask is cracked causing him to transform into a simple matoran.
  1. Toa Reborn

Kyron goes all emo and moppy. He begins fiddling with the Ender’s orb, accidentally restoring the Toa to their true form.
  1. Ender rising

Kyron mentally enters the Ender’s orb. He begins to realize his power is not what he thought it was. This is interspersed with the real world where the Toa Valiantly try to protect Kyron while he is absent his body.
  1. Ender control

The Toa are pinned down and Daemon delivers Kyron’s body and the Ender’s orb to Makuta. The island is transformed as Makuta wields the Ender’s orb and Kyron’s mental journey takes a dark turn. The World around him begisn to crumble as he cronfornts the entire truth of the power of Ender.
  1. Daemon

Kyron returns to his body and restores the Phillio by the power of Ender. Makuta still holds the orb but has no idea what it truely is. Kyron frees the Toa and reveals he cannot defeat the Daemon but that the Toa can with his help. The Toa are transformed into new powerful forms dubbed Endall Forms.
  1. Ender’s end

The Toa defeat the Daemon. Makuta retaliates and for a time the Toa seem an even match untill Makuta reveals his joker.
  1. Ender’s orb

Makuta has figured out the Enders orb and brutally retaliates against the Toa. Destroying Pohatu, Kopaka sacrifices himself to save Lewa and Gali, and Tahu has his brain crystal cracked. Kyron realizes what must be done and enters the fray.
  1. A final blow

Kyron Destroys the Ender’s orb causing his powers to go beserk transforming himself into a half flesh half metal being. Both of his swords are at full power  and Makuta is beaten to a pulp but still escapes.
  1. Fall out

With out the Ender’s orb to absorb the excess feedback power. Kyron is permanetly changed by his use of the power. Even his new understanding of Ender can bring back Pohatu and Kopaka, but he does heal Tahu. The matoran formerly the Daemon shows where the other turaga and matoran had been hidden. Kyron does not reveal all that the over use has caused.
  1. Home

Kyron says good bye to the four remaining Toa. Then he is sent home by the mask of summons.
  1. Epilouge

Kyron converses with his father and brother. The Acolyte from the start of the book shows up and ask if Kyron is all right. Kyrons ask if he is a good scibe and if he would take down a written account. When asked what to label the account he simply says “The Book of Ender”

    The Second Book of Ender
  1. Gods

A look and explanation (or what I thought them at any rate) of gods in my universes and how they are all tied together. Included gods are Jehovah, Kuwnearth, Mata-nui, and Impact.
  1. Devils

A look and explanation (or what I thought them at any rate) of evil in my universes and how they are all tied together. Included evil beings are Satan, Immortal, and Makuta.
  1. The Universes

A look and explination (or what I thought them at any rate) of guniverses and how they are all tied together. Included universes are Immortal/mortals impact, our world, Bionicle, and Kuwnearth.
  1. Conversations

This is messed up. It disturbs me, makes me laugh, and tend to run in circular logic. It is entirely in the form of conversation between the entities in the book. I think this may be the first place I explain my concept of a mortals impact vs an immortals impact. Here is a small piece:
Satan: So I see we now allow near deities in our circle of conversation
Kuwnearth: Near deity? by which you mena me?
Impact: Yes, being as he has created a universe even if it is only a time anomaly.
Immortal: oh yes the impact does love his mortals, those doomed fools...
Impact: you make fun of them, but I still maintain my belief, “Where I being mortal have one thing you can never give, you of the undying breed, I can give my life. This is the Impact of a mortal, A mortals impact!”
Yeah, I was nuts. Also who exactly was impact quoting? I don’t remember or never knew so I guess it will remain a mystery.

Break Down
It needs to be said Kyron became something else to me during a bad period of my life. It put and end to his story due to the fact I stopped running stories in my head for a while and when it came back I found myself more focused on Dicrea, a different character from the BZRPG.

That end part one of this look at Kyron This section was intended to explain the lay out and concepts and where various ideas come from. Next time I will explain His back story in detail so be prepared for exposition also I will try to explain his racial, Toa and other powers that have been touched on during the Saga of Kyron.
