[OOC] You are the Mon

[Lucius Cypher]

@SleepingSilence

Looks fine now. Just do keep in mind that you’re not a fully grown seviper, though I’ll need to double check what the average size of an adult seviper is. But I’d say you’re about 1/4 of the size of an adult during your more infantile state. You will grow larger as you age.

[Duthguy]

@Lucius Cypher Is my seedot accepted?

[SleepingSilence]

@Lucius Cypher Is that how we're going to balance it? I figured slowness, general weakness and incompetence could balance the scales. But again, I'm fine with whatever's decided.

(I can add "is a tiny danger noodle" to my appearance, if you'd like. Would make the idea of me still having an intimidating presence amusing. XD)

Character Sheet

(I'll add an image later)
Name: Lance Sharpe
Species: Pawniard
Age: 20
Appearance: For the most part, he looks like a regular Pawniard. The only notable difference is in his blades, which are somewhat longer and thinner than usual.
History: Growing up in a rich family, Lance lived a life of privilege and luxury. He attended one of the best private schools in the country, and though they weren't around much, his parents were willing to buy him almost anything he wanted. Since he was always fascinated by stories of chivalrous knights, this included a collection of swords and fencing lessons.

As he grew older, he became quite good at fencing, even winning a few tournaments. Despite this, he was far from an expert, though he certainly seemed to think he was. He'd even managed to convince himself that his fencing skills would help him in an unarmed fight. Of course, his overconfidence would eventually come to bite him. He foolishly ended up picking a fight with someone much bigger than him. One punch was all it took to knock him out. By the time he woke up, he found himself in a strange place, in a body that was completely foreign to him.

Looks good matey. Post em up.

@Lucius Cypher Is that how we're going to balance it? I figured slowness, general weakness and incompetence could balance the scales. But again, I'm fine with whatever's decided.

@SleepingSilence

I mean those things are also being taken into account, your physically immature size just being another issue on top of many others for why perhaps it would be in your best interest to focus on growing before you decide to take on prey on your own. You are all pretty much coming into the world as highly intelligent toddlers, though once you guys find/establish your own nest of sorts, I'll likely advance things along to the point where you guys could probably explore more (i.e. you get a few levels).

Also snakes are scary, whether they're lil noodles or the size of logs. Even if there isn't any humans in this world, there's still that primal revulsion towards insects and other creepy crawlies just out of habit.

@Ridlins

Not bad, welcome to the team.

I think I'll await for one more before I'll close applications and get started.

[Zanavy]

Dibs? :3 I have a silly idea and will try to get a CS up around lunch.

[Lucius Cypher]

First come first serve. It’s 8:16 for me right now so make a CS whenever you’re good and ready.

[Evanist]

Well... saw this rp, was not sure about it first but... here goes?

Poké Portfolio

Name: Celina Letendre
Species: Swablu
Age: 28
Appearance: Celina does look like a normal swablu, but her head feathers have a slight yellowish taint to them, seeming more golden then anything. She also has in the middle of her tail feathers a golden stripe right in the middle.

History: Celina had an average childhood, being risen by her loving parents that loved her and took well care of her. Her dad stayed at home and took care of the house and her with her brother, and her mother worked as a real-estate saleswoman, actually going around and selling homes and helping people who moved. Life was rather quiet for her as she kept studying and trying to learn as much as she could as well as playing some video games on her free time.

As she grew up she found an interest in helping people, actually wanting to help those in need in hospitals. With the high grade she had, she knew that if she kept going, she would be able to get to a hospital and possibly become a doctor… So she continued on, trying her best to study the human body and pass each exam. Things were going well for her until…

Well let’s just say after she finishes her studies and found a job to start off as a nurse… her mother fell sick with a rare disease… one that no one knew how to cure. In the meantime, she lost contact with her brother, who had moved to a city far away for some work he found there. So with that, Celina and her dad were stuck trying to help their mom, actually paying for lot of medicine to help her.
Literally… Celina had to do overtime a lot to just help her parents and try to keep everyone together. It was not easy, especially with the fact that she had to take care of her mom so much.

After about a year of working like a mad woman, trying to make sure everything will be fine, her mother made a recovery from the hospital.. But she was no longer herself like before…she had less energy… she slept more… it was still her, but deep down Celina knew that she would never be the same, the sickness having ravaged her a lot while it was there.

One week after her mother was released from the hospital, Celina took some vacation to relax after all this.. to finally have some time off. She decided to go and play her old Pokemon games on the first day, playing it as much as she could, remembering the old times…

That night she went to sleep… but she didn’t expect what would happen next.

Ah craaaap, I missed the sixth spot. T-T If you're set on 6, can you maybe put me in reserve in case somebody drops out or you decide you're ready to include more characters?

Poke Portfolio

Name: Jeri Helens

Species: Dunsparce

Age: 18

Appearance: Nothing really special… just a regular Dunsparce, as regular as one could claim to be… maybe a little bigger than average

History: Jeri gained two older stepbrothers when she was a toddler, and from day one she was NOT about to let them outdo her. The whole family had a competitive spirit, and Jeri learned to consider athletic success as the most important way to gain approval and praise. Jeri quickly grew restless sitting around in class and sometimes got in trouble at school. Usually she could temper her spitfire tendencies until she could constructively take out her anger during rugby or wrestling. But sometimes her temper boiled over and she’d bully people or get in fights. She fit in well with the “jocks” clique and backed up the most infamous school bully as he picked on the NEERRRRRDDDDDS.

Jeri does know a little about Pokémon, as it was a big part of pop culture when she was growing up. She wouldn't call herself a fan, though. She prefers Call of Duty.

With all her restlessness and misbehavior, Jeri passed each grade level but never had good grades. Both her brothers had gotten into college with sports scholarships, and now all the pressure was on her. Jeri finally managed to fall asleep, knowing tomorrow’s regional wrestling meet would be one of the most important sporting events of her life…

@Evanist You genuinely have my favorite pokemon transformation choice.

---

Though certainly a good collective effort at a rag tag assortment.

[Evanist]

And sorry Zanavy.. I do hope we can have more slots possibly. And ya.. was not sure what to take for a pokemon.. but decided to be the fluff bird :P

[Lucius Cypher]

I’ll allow it. Applications will be closed, I’ll review and work on an opening IC when I’m at home.

[Duthguy]

@Zanavy I was expecting you to be a zangoose, don't know why what with your name and avatar

[Lucius Cypher]

@Evanist

You're effectively a newborn pokemon i.e. level 1. So your moves will only be growl and peck.

@Zanavy

Dunsparce eh? That'll have some interesting Implications that you'll see later on. In any case accepted.

I'll be working on a post now that I'm home. Hope you'll all come to enjoy the game.

[Zanavy]

@Lucius Cypher :O Thanks, that's super nice. I'll try to be easy and nice in return. Well, OOC. IC I'll probably cause problems.

@Duthguy Zangoose was my favorite Pokemon for a while, and I did have a fantastic Zangoose character several years ago. Her story is so important to me that I've pretty much retired Zangoose as a character choice for me.

For this rp, I thought it would be fun to have a character who is PISSED about being a Pokemon. So I intentionally chose one of my least favorite Pokemon. XD

[Duthguy]

@Lucius Cypher I edited my cs to remove harden since Seedot learns it level 3

[SleepingSilence]

@Lugia As meta-aware as your character is. I'm surprised he isn't having a heart attack about having no flame on his tail, and going out the rain. ;P

[Lugia]

I could edit my post, but I figured that would hit him a bit later, because, well, right now, he's still freaking out about being a small, orange, bipedal lizard, lol.

...
and edited. I decided against having him react to going out into the rain, 'cause some of the entries state that it won't go out so easily. Of course, swimming is another thing, but a light rain shouldn't be much trouble.

[Rune_Alchemist]

And a post from moi.

[SleepingSilence]

@Lugia Yeah, I mean it would have been fine either way. ;3

Posted. Though now I need to consider what color to use for my character. As my colors are red, purple and green. All things used by other characters. >.<

I guess both our colors look different enough, so I'm sticking to it for now.
