Powers of a Kanohi of Psionics

[Willess12]

There was a hole discussion on the boards about whether gravity users can make black holes:

Gravity in Bionicle

Nuhvok-Kal, at the time it got destroyed, had increased power due to the Nuva symbols increasing the Bohrok-Kal’s power. Anyway, as far as the question goes: Short answer: probably not. Long answer: According to BS01, specifically the page for the Gravity Shield, the shields Nuhvok-Kal carried could increase gravity up to 1000 times its normal strength. A black hole, in our world, is generally formed by the collapse of a massive star, which is about 8 times the size of our Sun. Spherus Magna does not have a canon size, but it is generally estimated to be about 10 times the size of Earth, which in turn is about 1/1,000,000 the size of the sun. So the mass of Spherus Magna is (theoretically) about 1/100,000 times the size of the Sun, or 1/800,000. the size of a star that would normall…

I see what you did there.

I both respect and hate you for it.

Interesting. Although is it also confirmed that a Nova Blast from a Toa of Gravity will always create a black hole? Like could they also just increase gravity in area X by 1000 times or something like that?

Yes, the Garai can only increase or decrease the gravitational pull of objects. Actual Toa of Gravity have a more diverse set of powers - they can reverse the direction of gravity (which could allow them to walk on walls or ceilings, or to fly). It’s unknown if the Garai can create black holes, which normal gravity users can do.

Also. Kanohi Garai’s name does not use suffix Ba. Ba is the suffix of Ba matoran. Kanohi Avohkii and Kraahkan use suffixes of Av and Kra respectively. If there was a “full” mask of gravity it would be kanohi Barai or something similar.

From what we’ve seen in-story, all Nova Blasts carry a fatal risk to the user and those around them. That’s why it’s only used as a last resort.

Kind of like the mask of Sonar, Arthron, can use echolocation, which is just a small portion of what the element of Sonics can do
