Mask of Destiny Community Comics

From Modpedia

History

Mask of Destiny Community comics first came into being when Aegis (then under the name of Voporak) posted the topic, encouraging other members to join him. Many members joined, including Rapi, Toa Ouranos Shamayim and Daikunus. The comics at this stage were mostly based on small domestic issues, with the occasional appearance of an actual Bionicle character. On the 8th of April 2006 Bepura joined the group, introducing the concept of three-dimemsional backgrounds and a running storyline. Everyone had fun adapting to this story, and MoD Community Comics entered its golden age. Over time many members stopped making comics. Currently there are 5 active authors: Bepura, Rekteha, Toa Ouranos Shamayim, Abyss and Veno Galius (joined the team on 12th November, 2006). Some of the inactive authors such as Rapi, Liang and Aegis still follow the comics and their characters still remain important parts of the storyline.

Story

SPOILER WARNING

Comic 1: [The early days]

The storyline of the Mod Communtiy comics starts when Bepura first steps into the "MoD city appartments", symbolic of his joining the team. Kopaka Lady helps him by giving him the essentials for his comic-making carreer, almost crushing him in the process.

Comic 2: [A little light housework... and some unexpected visitors]

Bepura is in his bedroom, contemplating what he will unpack next. He decides to install his kitchen sink. Meanwhile, at the foot of the building a mysterious individual plots to murder him. Aegis arrives at Bepura's appartment, offering to help him install the kitchen sink. The mysterious figure reaches the kitchen window, just as Bepura steps to far and accidentally smashes the window with the kitchen sink, sending the stranger falling from the window. In the end, Aegis offers to pay for window repairs.

Comic 3: [Exciting plans and E-mails en masse]

Bepura, Aegis, Kopaka Lady, Daikunus and Bidrake are dicussing plans for a very large party. Bepura sends many invitations by e-mail. Many people recieve invitations (the comic effectively introduced many new characters: Huhnopu, Seaharu, Leehkmou, Jeaku, Lauha, Averwhi, Apatuh, Stahonic and Mohvri). It is vaugely hinted at that Mohvri sent information about the party to Lekerua, now revealed to be the stranger in comic 2. Lekerua recieves the information and begins plotting. Rapi also gets an invitation, and reacts hysterically by jumping out the window.

Comic 4: [A party of large proportions...]

Bepura's welcoming party was in full swing. Everyone was enjoying themselves and as Aegis said "So far nothing bad has happened... appart from Rapi drinking all the coke, that is." Apatuh then brought out his oversized novelty pie, encouraging everyone to snack on it. Rapi excitedly ran to the pie, pushing Apatuh out of the way. To everyones surprise, Lekerua sprang forth from the pie, wielding a machine gun, holding Rapi by the throat and making some, as Bepura put it, "extremely unfair" demands...
