@deathbringer thanks for this! I think I have an idea for what I might have my guy do (i.e. interact with various npcs and possibly set them up for future encounters). Heck, maybe I'll have him use the pokedex on his Roserade as if it was a camera! Most likely after the first day, he'll probably never use his pokedex again due to how irritating it is to him.
Hmm, maybe he could interact with @Tenma Tendo's character and try to form a small group! Misery does love company! However, I'm going to work on a post for another rp, so don't expect me to post here till I get that post down.
Also, is the trust fund baby the only rival we'll have? :P
Cool. Sounds good to me :)
I would really like to pad the rp a little with npcs so im all in favour of creation that we can use going forward.
So the rp has several ways it can go. All the way through I'll be giving little hints of maybe you could do that or you see this out the corner of your eye but it will be up to you if you take the options or go off on your own tangent. At some points I have ways of yanking you all together but i dont think its natural to assume that 4 members of our little breakfast club (you know who you are) will band and travel together. If you do great if not your gm is prepared!
So though little miss trust fund is an antagonist someone else could easily become a rival. It will depend on how you guys react to her and the story arc surrounding her. Lisette at the least is doing a phenomenal job :)
Added there is nothing to stop you guys getting into a rivalry with eachother.... I mean if Perri works out how much Lisette hates being ignored I may have to make the rp 18+ for violent content.
Ill be throwing npcs at you and you can certainly create your own. All i would say is i would prefer if you didnt specifically create a guy to be your rival. Create characters and we will weave them into the story and see what comes from it.
As always if in doubt message me. Im much happier building a story together than forcing you down a path you guys aren't keen on.
