BIONICLEstory.com

BIONICLEstory.com is an official branch of BIONICLE.com. Its purpose is to give BIONICLE fans knowledge of the storyline. It features many different story serials that overlap with each other, mini-movies, and games. It also contains information about the various characters seen throughout the years.

For the first half of 2007, the site had only the Barraki mini-movie and a "Coming Soon" message. This changed in the second half of the year when four new sections were added: a game section, a section on the Toa and one on the other characters, and a story serial section. In 2008, the site was entirely revamped to include information from all years of BIONICLE.

In 2007, a chapter of each of the three serials was generally updated every other Monday. In 2008, a new serial chapter was typically added once a week. However, it eventually changed to one serial on one week, and two serials on the following week. This was then changed again late in the year, when two updates were made in a week.

2010
The formatting of BIONICLEstory.com in 2010 continues the trend of the previous two years. The center video section was, however, changed into an advertisement for the BIONICLE Stars. Additionally, new web serials featured on the sidebar include:
 * Sahmad's Tale - Features the history of the Iron Tribe from Sahmad's perspective.
 * The Yesterday Quest - Tells of how the inhabitants of Spherus Magna begin their search for the Great Beings.
 * The Powers That Be - It presents the facts that follow Reign of Shadows.

2009
Continued from 2008, a sidebar on the lefthand side of the website's main page contains links to the latest web serial chapters. Included in the archives of these serials are the serials from 2008 and 2007. In the center of the main page is a video section containing an advertisement for the Glatorian.
 * Empire of the Skrall - This serial details the Skrall's campaign to conquer Bara Magna.
 * Riddle of the Great Beings - This serial focuses on the Agori.
 * Reign of Shadows - This story details the events during Teridax's rule over the Matoran Universe.

On the "Latest Story" page of the site, links are provided for the most recent chapters of the three stories: Empire of the Skrall under the heading "Blog", Riddle of the Great Beings under "Podcast", and Reign of Shadows under "Story Serials".

2008
The site itself consists of six total sections, including the main page. A navigational bar lies at the top of every page, but included on the main page are additional links, accompanied by images, to some of the sections, and various videos are featured at the top with a link to the latest story synopsis.

Story Overview
This section of BIONICLEstory.com provides a summary of the entire BIONICLE saga thus far. It divides the story into twelve chapters and links each to a page with a larger, in-depth summary.

Heroes, Villains & More
This section provides brief biographies for most characters featured throughout the BIONICLE saga. The section is further divided into six sub-sections for each type of character: Heroes, Villains, Titans & Warriors, Matoran, Rahi, and Others. Each sub-section includes a description of the category and a list of pages in that category. Each page in turn has a short bio of the character, a picture (as well as a movie link if applicable), and a fact chart including details such as mask, tools, primary color, element, and the first location where the character appeared.

In a 2009 update, the Matoran sub-section was renamed Villagers, and the category description was updated to describe Agori as well.
