Serious question, do you guys really find necessary spending so much effort into aide characters that are going to play really minot roles and probably wont appear much?

Necessary? No. But some of us enjoy creating a more, full world. A world where there are shopkeepers and strays, wanderers and friends. Its world development... Or would you rather pretend there are no shopkeepers or other rescue groups and we're just a batch of random pokemon in an uncivilized area puttering about on our own? lol

Personally I think roleplays without extras are about as good as a video game with no NPC's.

you are exaggerating, one thing is acknowledging the existence of those other characters and one much different is giving the the same importance as the main characters, which is to say us. Specially when it is going to be a disappointment because the fact is that they are going to appear once or twice and a brief description such as "the leader of the other team was a blastoise with angered expression that seemed to be impatient" is more than enough. Do I need to know a full personality, aspirations and background of said blastoise to interact with it?

I don't know if those are Soul's intentions, but I plan to do much more than that with the CS's I'm making. The Crusaders will be having their own adventures, along with interactions with other characters and I consider them just as important as Mally and Steele. Tussle won't probably be seen too often, true. But he's still important in his own way. I have it pretty thought out, at least I like to think I do. The effort is worth it if I'm enjoying myself.

And in casual, I don't think that description you used as an example should even be acceptable in an RP. I figure people around here are more thoughtful than that, though the people on this site have taught me not to assume... v.v

EDIT: Oh my god, Bio. Isole is totally going to that salon, and probably dragging her teammates with her.

Just like what Soul said, i mean we could have anybody control the everyday shopkeepers like they are NPC's. but it's nice some actually want to take minor roles in RP to liven it up.

Once again im sorry im taking forever, i finally finished my CS's and should have the IC at lease by the end of the day

Edit: also like i said, as long as the CS is good and you can handle it in the IC, I don't see why you can't

Lol yeah I was exaggerating to make a point ;) But really, I personally LOVE making characters. Period. And I like to have explanations for everything. Adding a background to side characters explains why they are who they are. I guess I'm one of those folk who likes to create a world and fill it with "real" people with real histories. Or in this case real pokemon. So again, not necessary, no, but I find it really adds to the gaming experience :)

Posted. Btw, maybe it is a good idea to have the CS's of everyone's character in the first post. Saves time when you're searching for your character's or another CS. And I would do that now, since there aren't many pages in the OOC yet.
