Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Tree Of The Cosmos

I posted but the formatting is bad XD Sorry about that. Was in kind of a rush. I bolded the dialogue to make it slightly better but i don't have time to fix it too much right now. Haven't RPed in so long so bear with me.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Tree Of The Cosmos

Many moons had passed since Lilith ventured on her own and for a while it was terrifying. She wasn't well educated on the world outside her family life and did not have the social skills to approach anyone that may have crossed her path. Lonely as she was, Lilith didn't care too much about making friends, she supposed. I just need to get stronger, she'd tell herself. There's no time to settle down, and at her pace there really wasn't. On the off chance that she'd stumble upon a village or any form of civilization, Lilith would only stay long enough to make use of its resources until she felt it was time to train again. Though she didn't understand some social norms, Lilith had learned some basic manners from her mother and would use that to her advantage. She found she could get strangers to get her what she wanted quicker with a facade, a forced smile. Though, that's not to say that she isn't truly grateful for their help. In fact, it was these short and kind interactions with strangers that helped shape Lilith's growing personality. She had never experienced acts of kindness from strangers. Sometimes she'd think about staying a while longer in a village but ultimately turned back on the decision and returned to her nomadic lifestyle. There was so much more to see, to experience, to prove. She edged herself on. But sooner or later, no matter how much she enjoyed her wandering lifestyle, the void inside would demand satisfaction.

A few days passed since Lilith learned a new skill. She felt empowered, though still aware of her lack of experience. She'd venture into the forest and tall grass in search of territorial pokemon living outside the villages. After losing a particular battle and injuring herself quite badly, Lilith decided it was time to find another village. She had failed to dodge the projectile stinger launched from the Weedle and had run out of Pecha berries. She needed medical attention and needed it fast. She mustered enough energy to walk several miles before reaching a stream. Thank Arceus She dipped her head down to lap up some water before turning to face the direction of the flow. Maybe it flows into town, she hoped. At this point her vision began to fade periodically and she found it difficult to walk. In a final effort to reach a village, Lilith's legs gave and her weakened body splashed into the stream.

"Mrs. Kangaskhan, look!" cried a muffled young voice. "Her ear twitched!" Lilith felt a light brush against her ear.
A sweet voice followed, "Sweetie, don't bother the poor thing."
Lilith's eyes strained to open and regain vision. Everything was blurry, everything sounded blurry. She was laying on some sort of cot and could make out a single figure hovering over her. When she recovered enough senses she recognized the second voice to be that of the Kangaskhan standing in front of her. Beside it stood a small blue Totodile, beaming up at her. She felt sore but managed to sit herself upright in the cot.
"No need to rush yourself, dear," assured the Kangaskhan. "You were quite ill. Give your body time to recover."
Her memory foggy and confused, Lilith nodded. Before she could open her mouth, the Kangaskhan explained.
"We found you by the riverside, dear, just on the edge of town. It was quite the fright, seeing you lying there, soaking wet, and so young. Where are your parents?"
Lilith's eyes went to her feet, unsure how to answer. "I-rr" she cleared her throat, "I'm, uh, emancipated." She turned to look up at her savior. "I live alone."
A warm smile rose on the Kangaskhan's face. "Well, you're more than welcome to stay with us for as long as you like. My name is Kala, and this is Theodore." Kala gestured her head to the cyan pokemon beside her. It shifted in place eagerly. ”He’s one of the many young pokemon that I take care of.”
"My name is Lilith, ma'am."
Kala smiled and turned from Lilith, walking out of the room for a moment and returning with a mug. She offered it to Lilith, who gratefully accepted. She looked down at the steaming liquid and inhaled its scent. She couldn't help but smile. "It smells amazing." She took a sip, he eyes widening. "This is great!" she chimed. Kala was visibly pleased. She pulled up a stool from a nearby desk and sat herself down.
"Do you mind if I ask what happened, dear?" asked the concerned Kala.
Lilith stopped drinking, gulping down her last sip before setting it down on the ground beside the cot. "Just wasn't quick enough..." she admitted. Her tail wrapped around the side of her body. "I'm sorry. I appreciate you help but I think I should go soon."
Theodore nearly jumped toward Lilith as he exclaimed, "But I wanted to play!" Kala calmed the child and hushed him. She turned her attention back at Lilith. "The tea should accelerate the healing process, but I would really prefer if you stayed in town for a few days, just until you're at full strength."
The corned of Lilith's lip curled faintly. "I appreciate your concern, ma'am, but I really need to get back to training. If I can't hold my own from one poison sting then I'll never get strong." Lilith eased her way off the cot and winced, her body still sore. Her legs trembled in support of her body. She took a few steps toward the doorway before turning to Kala with a reassuring expression, "See, I'm okay," she lied. She felt like zubat dung. The state of her health was much better now, but she needed a few minutes to adjust. Lilith entered the living area and was greeted by various young pokemon. One of them, a Cubone, approached her very cautiously. Tears gathered in its eyes. “Have you..” he sniffled, “have you seen my momma?” Lilith apologized, shaking her head. Before she could even try to comfort it, the Cubone let out a small sob before trudging away.
“He’s new…” Kala explained, her friendly tone now saddened.
Lilith muttered an ”Oh” before assuring Kala that she wouldn’t be any more of a bother. ”I think it’s best I go”As she started for the front door Kala called out.
"Wait, Lilith," she called almost frantically. With a sigh, she continued. "There's a lovely young pokemon by the name of Willow. She's starting up a guild based in town. Please, if you really insist on training while in recovery, talk to her about joining, if not until you're at full health? I'm sure you're fully capable of taking care of yourself," she paused, approaching the young Eevee, "but it would put my mind at ease knowing you'll be in town a little longer and have others with you." Kala brushed her hand against her face, just as her mother once had. "Arceus knows what would have happened if that river didn't flow to this town."
Lilith was taken aback by this kind gesture. Throughout the time she'd ventured, no one had shown her this level of genuine concern. She was touched, and felt guilty if she were ever to bring a worried though to this kind stranger. Lilith gave her word that she would talk to Willow. "Thank you for your help, ma'am."
Kala chuckled."Please, dear, I'm Kala."
"Kala," Lilith corrected. Kala opened the door for her and grinned
She opened the town to Lilith and pointed up the path. "Now, you'll want to go up that hill right there and find the library. That's were Willow is starting the guild."
Lilith stepped out into the sunlight and thanked Kala one last time before finally asking, "Wait, where am I?"
A lighthearted giggle emitted from Theodore. "Welcome to Sunny Town!"

As she stood at the top of the hill, Lilith turned and saw Kala's hut below. For the first time she noticed a sign near the building.
Kangaskhan Orphanage
She couldn't help her lips curl with a heavy heart. The Cubone. With a deep breath, Lilith turned away and approached what she believed to be the aforementioned library and was greeted by a small bundle of pokemon met by a Braixen. She nervously walked up to the door, lightly wedging herself past the Rhyhorn and Turtwig. "Excuse me?" she said meekly. Her usual confidence seemed to drop slightly. She had never been accepted into a group and despite her drive for independence, she secretly feared rejection.

Curious as to went you plan on starting up. There's only one CS up, not including my WIP

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Tree Of The Cosmos

So finally got back from my trip, and still interested in RPing with

Lilith

Name: Lilith
Gender: Female
Species: Eevee
Ability: Adaptability, Anticipation
Starting Level: 10
Starting Moveset: Tackle, Helping Hand, Baby-Doll Eyes, Swift

Personality: Lilith tends to be fairly simple-minded and childish on most occasions but can have moments of clear and mature thinking under strained circumstances. Though still in adolescence, Lilith preforms well under pressure and enjoys facing challenges. She is not in any hurry to grow up, refusing to settle for an evolution on convenience. She enjoys her youth and knows it's fleeting, trying to maintain her own innocence for as long as she can manage; that is, hoping to train her current evolutionary form to the best of her ability before taking on a permanent, stronger form. When confronted by strangers for the first time, Lilith is cautious and tries to keep her guard up. However, once she's warmed up to someone she becomes more herself, rather quirky and energetic. Being young, however, leaves Lilith with various insecurities. When she feels she is unable to emotionally deal with her surroundings, she puts up a facade to keep up her cheerful attitude in front of others.

Brief History: Lilith was born into a family for the purpose of evolving and mastering the skills of a predetermined evolution. She was born in a life where being you were but a means to an end. She grew up in specialized in training and raising Pokemon for situational jobs. Her siblings were rented out to those who required the use of specialty type Pokemon for undisclosed purposes. They considered themselves Mercenaries, doing jobs others did not want their loved ones involved in. Lilith had a strong relationship with her mother and thought the world of her. The only trouble she ever got was from her siblings, ridiculing and teasing her for not evolving. Often times they would try to pressure her into becoming their evolutionary forms, claiming to be the best one of all. This, however, only intensified Lilith's desire to surpass them in an inferior form. Lilith was meant to evolve into an Umbreon, something her mother kept secret from her for quite some time. It wasn't until Lilith discovered this fact that she felt the need to break away from the family. She felt as though her life was mapped out for her, rather than being able to make her own life decisions. Leaving wasn't difficult--it wasn't a jail.
She left, leaving behind the only person she knew who cared for her as well as the siblings who helped her grow stronger. She went out into the world inexperienced and full or curiosity, wandering the region until she found herself somewhere new. She walked the land foraging and nesting whenever and wherever possible, training in solitude until the day she finds who and what she's meant to become.

if you'll still have me XD Sorry for the delay. I do plan on reading the post and posting tomorrow but if anyone could give a short recap of current events in the game, that'd be appreciated n_n

That sounds quite interesting, Ace! What be those circumstances? Wild magic certainly abounds in the setting, with the various magical factions not being altogether "ethical" in its use... An elemental sounds like it could come from the Everfree Forest, to me. I assume there's some story, in which the fire elemental falls in love with a pony, and your character is the result of that?

Still on vacation so haven't gotten time to finish up my character but I'm between whether his would be a natural birth or artificial; natural being similar to that Everfree idea and artificial with the magic. If it was through magic, I was thinking it would be the equivalent to a test tube baby, maybe as an experiment from Twilight's faction, Moon and Star was it (cant remember XD), that was a mix of science and magic. It failed, or at least the results weren't satisfactory, and was discarded in Everfree. Either way, he would find himself in the care of Rainbow's faction

Oh neat. Well I'll read what's posted so far and have something up later today n_n

I hope..

EDIT: My bad for the double post XP

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Tree Of The Cosmos

Just a heads up

I realize I'm going to be out of town this week and wont be back until early next week. Character will be done tonight so you'll know who she is but if the RP has progressed a bit by the time I return I'll just intro her into the group progressively if that's fine.

Equestria Divided - The War for Harmony

I'm going to finish my character but I realized I came in at a bad time XD I leave on a short vacation tomorrow and won't be back until early next week

EDIT: The OC I had made was originally a fire elemental-esque pony. I don't know if that's an accepted concept in this version of Equestria. The origins of his (limited) skills would be connected to the circumstances of his birth. If you don't want characters too far from canon species I'll change it up
