It has been years since the first gijinkas came about. Most taken as children, and put into laboratories to be transformed and 'gifted' with the powers of Pokemon. Originally, three laboratory companies 'created' gijinkas. All three companies were rivals, one started the experiments simply for the hell of it, the second followed suit with a desire to use the gijinkas for power. The third, however, wished to create legendary gijinkas, with phenomenal power, such as Dialga. The third company's leader wished to rewrite time and history. None of the companies were sponsored by the government.

While the later experiments greatly improved in quality, the earlier ones were more... grisly. Eventually, all three companies were forced to release their experiments by a reluctant government body, who was pressured into it by one individual who had a significant position of power.

After the gijinkas were released, the thought of enslaving them and keeping them as pets or tools came to be. A third of all gijinkas were captured, and circulate in the 'Gijinka trade' today. There are trading posts and designations. However, an uprising within the central city of the region is growing... Join as a gijinka, or a human, and form an opinion of society's state. Will you stand by and watch, content? Or will you take up arms and fight?

During this RP, there will be several differing opinions and sides. There are humans for capturing gijinkas and keeping them as pets or slaves; there are humans against capturing gijinkas. There are also gijinkas who side with humans, but the large majority may not side with humans.

Rules

No godmodding. Your character cannot dodge every attack aimed at them, and your attacks will not always land. Also, you may not control another roleplayer's character.
No metagaming, your character shouldn't miraculously know information they haven't been told yet.
There is no character limit, but don't make so many characters that you can't handle them all.
Please observe which pokemon gijinkas have already been made, because I don't want twelve different absols running around.
Your character may not know more than two egg moves. They can know one TM move off the bat.
I'm allowing one shiny character per person.
Please confirm that you are interested in this roleplay before making a character.
We need more humans signed up. Please consider creating a human character.

I don't normally like playing two characters, but I couldn't decide which one to do so I settled on both.

Name: Dian

Nicknames/Aliases: Wick-Head, Parasite

Age: 19

Sex: Male

Gender Identification: Bisexual

Species: Litwick

Opinion on society[such as the enslaving of gijinkas]: He believes that gijinka exist to serve humans, as they would not exist without them, and is happy to do whatever is required of him.

Does your character have an owner[gijinkas only]: Yes

Appearance: (Clothing is the same as in the picture) The purple bit on his head stands on end and flickers like a flame all of the time, especially when he's tired.


Personality: Dian's always been polite and respectful to humans of all types, except for those whom his master disapproves of, like orphans and the poor, although he secretly pities them and tries to help when his master isn't watching. He's submissive and obedient, which other gijinka might call weak and wishy-washy. However, he doesn't usually get to have conversations with them about his independence since he looks down on rebellious or free gijinka, with the exception of his younger sister, whom he's constantly trying to convince of the importance of obedience. He's kind of shy when with his own kind (the obedient ones, anyway), but is very optimistic.

Past: He and his sister were taken from the orphanage and put into the program, Dian at age 8 and his sister at age 6. The woman who ran the orphanage was payed handsomely for taking care of them and gladly gave them up to a life of experimentation and slavery. They were part of a research procedure to find out whether age would have any effect on combining them with consequent evolutions, as well as testing whether they would receive the unique powers of their hosts, and how strong those powers would be. When they were released, the government and several corporations wanted Dian as a weapon for his ability to drain energy from others instead of eating, leaving a lot of the budget free and an empty husk in the enemy's stead. The "individual", however, would not approve this, and kept Dian on hold until a rich family put up an offer instead. This family, the Jelthers, (pronounced Gelterrs,) hired him on as their butler, treating him decently enough, especially since they didn't have to feed him as long as he siphoned off a bit of energy from passerby. As the years progressed, though, the view of gijinka changed, and the younger generation of the family began mistreating him. The grandmother (Mae), however, who was his primary master, disapproved of her grandchildren's actions and had Dian move into her private mansion. He works alongside a few other gijinka servants and some human staff who neither approve or disapprove of him as long as he doesn't eat their souls.

Move Set: Minimize, Curse, Psychic, Will-O-Wisp

Abiliy: Flash Fire
Name: Prudence "Prudie"

Nicknames/Aliases: Witch, Willow

Age: 16

Sex: Female

Gender Identification: Female

Species: Lampent

Opinion on society: She doesn't like humans thinking they have all the power over gijinka, especially since, technically, gijinka are more powerful, but she can tolerate it. She likes to think that maybe one day they can all help each other, but isn't really proactive about this idea.

Does your character have an owner: Technically, no. She lives with her brother in Mae's house and helps the staff out, but isn't legally the Jelthers'.

Appearance: (Again, same clothing as below) Always has to carry around the lamp as it contains her life force, only sometimes wears the hat. Her "batch" was made with abilities more in mind than appearance.


Personality: Mostly, Purdie's your typical teenager. She's attached to her brother, but can get tired of his tirades on gijinka dependence, and usually wanders around by herself. She's very curious and loves exploring Mae's huge mansion, which the woman kindly allows so long as she doesn't get in the staff's way. Unlike Dian, she's very capable of getting along by herself thank you very much, and is often sent out on errands in the city. She's not very friendly either, and is more serious than others her age, but can be sociable and isn't easily phased. When she goes to the city, though, she tries to ignore everyone, especially the begging gijinka, although sometimes the street kids show her cool places to go.

Past: She was with Dian and went through the same things he did up until the freeing, at which point she had nowhere to go. No one wanted the creepy, moody teenager who could sense death, except maybe a few doctors, and even those were rare since they didn't want friends and family of their patients giving up on medical help to mourn. When Dian was hired on by the Jelthers, she was almost given to the slave market, but the family took her in as a kind of surrogate daughter to prevent this. She was abused along with her brother in later years and moved with him to Mae's mansion when she left the main house. Mae has some of her staff tutor Prudie, and she's especially good at poetry, namely the dark kind.

Amazing OCs, phantori! I love the detail you put into them. :3 Both are accepted!

Name: Ludo

Nicknames/Aliases: N/A

Age: 20

Sex: Male

Gender Identification: Male

Species: Suicune

Opinion on society[such as the enslaving of gijinkas]: Against humans, in a severely maliciously way.

Does your character have an owner[gijinkas only]: No

Appearance: Ludo can be described as a very beautiful man. His bangs are a bright, crystal blue, which fades into a striking purple. Due to this hair color, which is unnatural among humans, he dyes his hair blond. He also wears his hair long and flowing, as well as wavy, down to his back. His eyes are a vicious red, thus he wears blue contacts. His face is elegant and handsome, with a curved, and an angular jawline. His skin is milky and fair, but due to being an earlier experiment, he still carries scars from the procedures. There are none on his face, however. He wears a black Peaked cap. He has no commonly worn expressions. He shifts his demeanor very often.

He's not the same height as his brother, Faramond, being 5'11". His build is elegant, abet more fragile. He has long legs, and a fairly muscled torso. He mostly relies on elemental or special attacks, not being that powerful physically. His hands are more delicate, but not as roughened. He has scars on his abdomen from being shot in the stomach as he escaped from the laboratory.

Clothing: His fashion style differentiates, but he doesn't really get the chance to wear what he wants, due to everything being so expensive. It's an issues to simply find something affordable. His favored colors are deep blues. His shoes are white boots that go up to below his knees, with his blue pants tucked into them. He has a constantly-worn, blue cloak with some white diamond patterns on it, and he'll usually wear a peaked cap, as headgear. He has no ears that he really needs to hide, but the whip-like appendages that come from him need to be hidden carefully, thus he wears the cloak around whatever clothing he has on.

Personality[Don't skimp out on this one]: Ludo doesn't trust easily, but does dream of a world where one day, he can. Although he may appear as a simple floozy, he has a high IQ and mental ability to piece facts together. The situation and events that go on around him are things that he constantly is watching. His gaze is vigilant, although it may seem as though he can only be focused on one issue at a time. His methods are rather unorthodox, but he avoids killing whenever he can. A body count will not get him what he desires. He can trust a bit too eagerly, and he can be blinded by his desire for company.

Meanwhile, he hides most of his ulterior motives behind flirty mannerisms. His slyness is not to be underestimated, even if he can trust a pretty face too easily. There are no issues with treating men roughly. Women are considered to be the fairer gender by him, but if one has wronged him once, he shall not forget it. Ludo is usually the one who attempts to break up fights, but he can have his fits every once in awhile. These fits usually are triggered by observing the poor treatment of gijinkas, and this is why he usually remains home.

Ludo is more of a tactician than a warrior, which compliments his brother's lifestyle and ways. He knows who to spare and who to sacrifice. Offing weak links is a part of his strategy, and may result in friendly fire. Ludo does not struggle to be honest, at times he does not even try. His lack of knowing which secrets are acceptable to tell may get him in trouble later. He has a border obsessive fixation on his brother.

Past: Ludo was given up by his parents. They were poor, but he does remember that cold winter day. He had been clinging to his mother's leg, but was wretched away and brought to the laboratory. He was apart of the earlier experiments, therefore, they were more painful. The scientists kept him with his brother, Faramond, who kept him as safe as possible. His only social interaction was with other experiments. He remembers friends, unlike his brother, and he remembers laughing once or twice at morbid jokes.

After the laboratory was invaded and forced to set the gijinkas free, he was shot in the stomach, and healed by a generous woman who took him in. Faramond followed, but the two soon split from the location after the idea of enslaving gijinkas appeared. They traveled after that, dyeing their hair and retrieving contacts. Ludo developed a desperation for closeness with another, and therefore latched onto his brother. They eventually settled down in a city, where they have been living for quite some time. Ludo seldom goes out, and works odd jobs like his brother.

Move Set[gijinka only]: Calm Mind, Ice Beam, Scald, Mirror Coat
Ability[Gijinka only]: Pressure
Name: Lucian

Nicknames/Aliases: Lucy

Age: 24

Sex: Male

Gender Identification: Male

Species: Persian Gijinka

Opinion on society: Neutral towards humans, as well as society. He wouldn't care if the entire world crumbled to dust.

Does your character have an owner[gijinkas only]: No

Appearance:
Face Claim-

His hair would have a red patch in the front, but he dyes it. Lucian has a nimble and agile body build. He's fast, but not suited for taking heavy hits. He has long, elegant legs and sinewy hands. His fingernails also would be claws, if he didn't cut them routinely. His form has scars on it as well, but they're often hidden by his clothing. His complexion is mostly pale. He has a tail as well.

Clothing: Lucian takes whatever he can get, but most of his outfits are brown, tan or creme colored. There is no specific 'taste' he has, but he does have dress shoes, various pairs of regular pants, alongside a dilapidated waistcoat, alongside various dress shirts. He has absolutely no jewelry or really an accessories to be found. The colder seasons are usually a problem, as he doesn't really have any coats to be found... He has numerous sleek hats as well, most of them covering his ears decently.

Personality: Lucian is a deviant. He has little care for the state of the world around him, and only seeks to amuse himself. He's flirty, teasing, and doesn't hesitate to get into trouble. He's had more than a couple of one-night-stands. He has a rather long fuse on his temper, and the only issue that could possibly unnerve him would be his past. He doesn't care if he's referred to as subhuman or lesser due to his species. Most insults go in one ear and out the other. He's thick skinned like that. Lucian is passionate about what he loves, but the issue is that he doesn't love much at all. Curiosity can get the best of him.

Lucian is a very perceptive gijinka, although he often chooses to be subtle. Besides wearing hats and dying his hair, he isn't very cautious about his gijinka status. He does carry a firearm wherever he goes, in case hunters manage to spot him. He can be cruel to people who are too uppity and cheery, or too melancholy and depressing. But, his attitude is changeable if you manage to get through to him. It isn't often that he finds someone he can actually 'invest' in and not get bored with, but those people have his interest and loyalty.

In any case, Lucian is very talkative. Out of everything he likes talking about, himself is not a subject he usually touches on. This is mostly to paint a positive image of himself. He may seem reckless, but Lucian is by no means predictable. His loyalties can change with the weather if he isn't truly attached to the person. He'll lie if doing so will gain him anything.

His manner of speaking is casual no matter who he's speaking with. He doesn't bother with using big or unnecessary words to get his point across.

Past: Lucian was another early experiment, who was not only abused by those means, but also sexually by a female worker in the laboratory. His sole shining light in his dark life was another gijinka his age, a Goodra gijinka in process. She called him 'Lucy' often, and they supported each other throughout their years at the laboratory. However, Sam, the name of the other female gijinka, was killed accidentally during an experiment, and bled out. The news was not received well by Lucian. He became more isolated than before, and gave up his will completely to his abusers. Sexual activity became a 'norm' for him.

After the laboratories released their gijinkas, he was lost and without a place to go. There was no way to turn. He went into hiding, but soon came out of it once the idea of enslaving gijinkas came about. He began wearing hats and dyeing his hair. After stealing living necessities from different towns he had passed, he now lives in a recently abandoned home downtown.
