Got it, I'll toss up a post soon since it's kinda slow right now, Leo's got something to do while everyone is grabbing their Viore Pokedex's and stuff.
I accidentally a million posts. Going to get them deleted. I can't tell if it's my net, RPG's servers, or some combination (which I think it's that), but either way. Ick! @@;
So I'm moving to my new apartment tomorrow, and we ordered the router and everything but we won't get it for 3 more days (despite ordering it a week ago). So no internet for 3 days woohoo!
Can't wait to move in though, for RP purposes, I can have Leo be off getting ready for his adventure to come, getting distracted and not showing up on time when we set out.
Have fun you crazy cats, don't kill anyone off when I'm away!
So if my posts repeat themselves for no real reason, I promise I'm not spamming for lulz. The last post there posted like an hour after I originally did it while I wasn't even tabbed open to RPG.
My apologies for not posting recently. I haven't been feeling the best, and have a problem getting my motivation back up when I miss stuff. I should be able to get a post up later today.
Also, Mahz found out what was causing the problems recently and said that it is a particular combination of BBcode parsing, so I'm going to be reducing the amount of BBcodes I use until he finishes the patch to avoid tripping it.
Meet the first two major NPCs that the characters have met so far in the RP.
Edward Maple
Appearance: Coming Soon...
Gender: Male
Age: 23
Personality: Youthful and energetic at his relatively young age, Edward Maple is almost always on the move. When he's not, you know there's something wrong, or he thinks he's about to unearth the greatest discovery of his career. He's quite kind and helpful, especially to new trainers who come to his lab to begin their journey. However, he can become quite aggressive if someone is trying to steal from him or break the law.
Hometown/Region: New Amber Town, Viore
Backstory: A former Pokemon League Tournament winner, Edward Maple decided to not pursue the life of battling Pokemon, but studying them. This eventually led to him being named as the top Pokemon Researcher in Viore. However, Pokemon is not his only interest. He is an archaeologist, a vivid one at that. There are times when he would be out in the field for weeks at a time, hoping to uncover more of Viore's lost history.
When he is at his Lab, he is studying Viore's Ancient Script, hoping to decipher clues or legends that could help his research. Through his research he has discovered that the Ancient Viorian People may have used Mega Evolution different from the known Pokemon that can Mega Evolve, found from paintings of Pokemon that resemble modern day Pokemon, but are different. He is still investigating this.

Lorina Hunt
Appearance: Coming Soon...
Gender: Female
Age: 18
Personality: There are few things that Lorina hates, and the top of the list is criminals. From petty thieves, to jewelry thieves, to Pokemon poachers, if they break the law, they're in for a world of hurt. She usually keeps a calm head, and makes great use of her nearby resources to solve a problem. She thinks quick on her feet, and is a very talented actor. If something is bothering her, or she knows something she doesn't want anyone else to know, she could probably keep her cool if there was a Camerupt right beneath her.
Hometown/Region: Silent Cove, Viore
Backstory: The first years of Lorina's life were calm and peaceful. She grew up with a middle class family, both in Law Enforcement. They were the happy times, the times she'll cherish as long as she can remember them. But, times would change when she entered school. From the first day she set foot in Trainers School, it was clear that she was different. She was smarter, quicker to pick up on things than her classmates. This made her the prime target for bullies.
She refused to tell her parents, or anybody for that matter, about it. She didn't want to cause worry, and she didn't want her classmates to get in trouble. So, over time, she perfected her acting skill, and soon it became so good that the bullies wouldn't even bully her anymore because they wouldn't get the reaction they wanted out of her.
After graduating Trainers School at Age 10 (As most Kids would in Viore), she decided to follow in her parent's footsteps. She enrolled in the Viore Police Academy, and learned everything there was to learn about Law Enforcement. The different agencies such as the International Police and Pokemon Ranger Union. She made sure she knew every code by heart. At 17 she graduated from the Academy with honors, and was stationed in Stormbutte City.
However, it was here she found that the technology they Police used was severely outdated compared to the tech she was taught that criminals those days would use. She became frustrated, until she was approached by a stranger, who offered her a place in his group. She was promised access to the latest technology. Everything seemed official, as well. So she took it.
And, as promised, she had access to technology that local Police could only dream of getting. She began tracking down criminal after criminal, until there was near peace in Viore. Because of that, they decided to give her a task. They wanted her to watch the new trainers coming to Viore via the Maple Pokemon Lab, to see if any could be potential threats for the region. She accepted the assignment, and set off for New Amber Town.
She applied as an aid for the Professor. He quickly grew impressed by her skill and knowledge, and eventually gave her the position of Head Aid. She would be in charge of the Lab when he was gone. It was during this time she adopted a nickname, Bishop. Also during this time she met her current partner, a Banette named Spook.
