As for Digimon line, fine.Now, normally, I'd say it's fine for someone's character to be however they want. However, I feel as though the description could be a bit more well described, and justified, Because there's absolutely no transition from being socially inept to being able to help an entire class. Sorry, but it feels kind of forced a touch. Perhaps rethink some of the things, and maybe think of development you want your character to have in the IC as opposed to having him supposedly overcome every obstacle in his backstory. Plus, his name coming right out of your user name doesn't really... help your case.And, again, normally I'd be fine, but I'm planning on there being a very deliberate process by which the Digidestined are chosen, and it's for a specific purpose. It's not seemingly random or super-clandestine like Adventure or Frontier, but it's not voluntary like Data Squad. There's going to be a system in place, and I want it to all make sense.


So what sort of quality/specific thing be needed for a chosen Digidestined? Just so I can get a proper bio for them/personality and such

Just make them unique, make the stories follow logic, give them a few flaws, and have their personalities have some form of dynamic with the Digimon most likely.
It's kinda hard to explain because I have to filter it all from a perspective of character. I don't want to spoil what is being looked for, but it's part of the reason I have so many stipulations.

I... My character has my own past and it's just about as is... I tend to do that, use myself, I can change his name to the legal name of Alexander, not that anyone calls me that... Ever. I can try to describe it, but my 'transition' as you put it is kinda hard to explain. I, and presumably he still has problems, he just somehow sorrounded himself with people who were worse... I'm not going to put details, but let's just say I've been a real help to several people who are to stubborn to go to a real psychology expert. In any case, I can change it but I do want to tell you that it's not contrived, it's my f*#cked up life :p
Edit: also it's not a class, it's like 2 or 3 kids from his school who are worse off then him and who he can help.

....look, dude, I can't really rp with self-inserts. I've done it before and inevitably it's always taken personally if my character has a disagreement with them, and I really don't want to go through that stuff for the fifth or so time.

ETA: To clarify, not saying you'll have to start over. I'll probably drop though. Pretty sure Tob'll be okay.

There we go. Also, I can not condone self-insert characters. I was tired when I posted last, but that was also in my mind- both actually. A combination of "this feels like a self insert a little bit" and "I don't feel like this would work in Japan", and that's one of the character rules atm.
O.O
Yeah, with what could potentially happen in this RP, you do not want to feel personal equivalence to your character.
Things may happen due to other characters, certain enemies, and my own "I wonder how this character would do with this situation", or simple plot advancement, and I'd not want it to seem like an attack on any specific player. I apologize for the inconvenience, but it will save you trouble in the long run.
QED- I'm playing at least one all-female pair and I'm a guy. Even I accept that some pain may come to all my characters, but heck, I'd do it voluntarily because it makes for good character deveopment.

I'd rather you not drop. Besidesyou'retheonlyoneherewhomI'mawareoftheirwritingability. Plus I'm aware you'll engage in a bit more darksome situations.
Silver Fox said I'll edit in a digimon soon

I like, I like. Note that his hydrophobia will be exploited at least once.
Protip- I will not simply have someone's Digimon take heavy damage or be reverted to an egg just because they're a Leomon. If there's another reason, however...

Also, wow, lots of Japanese Child Protective Services instances here. Or, two... which is a lot for the small sample size.
22xander said A new backstory, how's that?

Sorry to poke holes, but Japan isn't known for giving dual citizenship. It still feels a bit confused and lacks details that complete the story. Lots about where he is/how he got there, little about personality. And I'd rather you not use your real/username for your character name for the above reason. Plus you're referencing things in your Digimon sheet that aren't established in your human character, and it seems that the future interaction is highlighted more than the actual characteristics of the Digimon.
And, a few technical errors- all your images are broken. Also, SkullMeramon's an Ultimate, not a Mega. Thirdly, I didn't expressly say this, but a Champion should have one to two Techniques that are used, and I'd say 3 three for Ultimates. If it's explained well I might allow a third on a Champion or a fourth on an Ultimate (the latter not being that hard really), but not like five or six on a Champion. In addition, we're not using an MP system really, so...
Okay, I didn't want to do this- you seem like you're interested, but I have to think of the stability of the RP here. I'm looking for at the very least that you're going to put your best effort into it, and I'd prefer a show of quality writing to the best of your ability, but if you're not going to give at least a solid 80% of your effort consistently for the RP, then I'll have to give the slot to someone else. I'm not saying I'm doing that now, but it will be the case if you don't have improvement before the IC starts, and you will be considered in consideration for seat 12 until then, but someone else could take it once I put the OOC up. Fair warning, yes?

Sorry for rambling guys.

Dude.... Dude... I expect everyone to exploit this. As many times as they want. Do it. Make him sufferrrrrrr <insert evil laugh> but nah it's quite fine. I think it will eventually make a good 'lesson' point like (choose, let the fear get the best of you or let a friend die) or something.

But yes... This guy can't shower without freaking out ... So I expect much making fun of him.

I don't really understand. Why would this be exclusive to Leomon? Don't all Digimon basically just get turned into a egg if destroyed (unless a digimon eats the fractal code). Or do you just mean no one should be dying?

Yay! Deep sea mission anyone? Dagomon, MarineDevimon... oh, the horrors of the deep... YAS!
There's a tradition in Digimon that is as follows *clears throat* "Leomon dies". I want to assure you that if you use Leomon as your Champion as you have Leopardmon as your Mega, you won't be unfairly targeted. And I'm going by the method that they always revert unless their DigiCore is destroyed, and it's more Adventure than Tamers, so when Digimon delete, it's black speckles rather than the red shower and the blue shower of absorbtion, or however that worked.
It's fine, he can. It's not like he's identical to Nekane anyway.
Also I'm done with her CS and Alphamon.

Perfect=Ultimate. Also, for purposes of clarity, the majority of Digimon that were released before... I'd say 2003, should use their English name, unless the english name is a textual abomination. As long as it makes sense, that's good, but here's the best example I can think of- the English name of Valdurmon is Varodurumon, which is a horrible enrgish misspelling, and as it's based on Baldr, Baldurmon is a more fitting name.

Your character's good now. It makes sense how he's an American/Japanese boy in Japan now with little other interaction. I'd like you to fill out your Digimon then, and I'll see how well you do with the characters there. And I don't mean to sound rude, but I'd suggest giving your writing a check before

Yes, all the underwater missions.

Karn: Yaaaa knoooow how about I stay here on safe land and have a cook out. Sounds way better.

And oh you mean that trope. I wasn't planning to use Leomon no worries. Just thought you meant no one is allowed to die like Leomon or a Leomon isn't allowed to die xD I was like 'whaaaaa?'

True.
::Then an Ebidramon appears::
Okay. Would you mind getting to your Digimon pretty please?
Also I'm totally expecting Karn to be not into guys at all just to make people think he's bluffing due to his androgynous nature, which I'm totally fine with btw. I mean, play him how you want, by all means. But androgynous characters are cool.

Where do you get that? Digimon Wiki says it comes from some Chinese Emperor, but I thought I saw somewhere it was something about "Rare". Although the Emperor's name he was based on(Guangwu)'s name translates to "Military Light" or something.
Unless you got it confused with Mokumon, which is literally smoke and whose name means Smokemon.
