Bio

It's me, that dood, Citrus Arms. I'm 33, I sometimes work on a book a little bit, and I play a lot of games. I like me some MechWarrior or the X-Frontier series, but I also adore some good magic-fantasy. I grew up with Final Fantasy VI's magitech world, and worlds like Chrono Trigger, Zelda, and Star Fox. Lots of Nintendo, but some other stuff, too.

I like sci-fi and fantasy and space and combinations thereof, mostly. I have a setting take takes place after a galactic apocalypse, in a galaxy of recovering empires and new interstellar nations rising from the ashes, all while machinations from the apocalypse cause a rise in magic.

I figured the pacing would go better if I assumed a yes from the princess.

How very efficient, she liked it. This girl was good at her craft. Was this school full of such capable people? Hm, she needed to stay on her A game, then. It wouldn't do to lose to a child, not in that manner. She looked to the princess, "I am to consider these people your trusted hands, then?"

Presumably, one "yes" later, "very well. Let me start at the beginning. I got involved in the case about as soon as I arrived in Zauberheim. I found myself outside a warehouse, host to a fight on it's front step. Some cute young thing was about to get an axe, so I stepped in and stopped the axe. Then someone started the warehouse to go up, I busted in, secured some illicit substances, fought with Keith a bit while I was at it, and my involvement in the case was solidified."

"The next day," she glanced at the door to see it was still closed, "say, your spell needs the whole room to be sealed? Windows 'n such, too, yeah? Just makin' sure..."

"Ah, the next day, we're to go arrest Juan de la Cruz for questioning, but it didn't go well. You may have heard. Someone was put there to take him out, meaning that he was definitely involved. Then, just today, we busted up a gym that was a front for their organization, and I fought alongside Sir Vitalion, against Annabelle Orlov. She's the drug user I fought. It made her strong. It took the two of us to bring her down. She managed to get me good on the head, which brings us here."

"Now, this all seems like it might be tied up in the business that brings me to your kingdom in the first place. What do you know of all this, if I may be so bold."
"Shiny?" Regan thought about it for a second and shook her head. "I don't remember. I didn't look that closely. C'mom, it was this way."

The woman wearing ranger apparel lead the way back to the neighborhood she remembered seeing the Pokemon. "It was somewhere around here... I saw it in that yard there, last. Rapier!" She called, watching for her bird to ascend to the sky at her call. She looked around obviously, showing her bird she was searching.

Rapier, her Staraptor, looked down from its flight, spying his companion searching for something. If she's looking around here... It must be for that Umbreon. I'll find him.

@JrVader I forgot to mention you~
"Jolin Kaldara. Got it. And she's not in the building, huh? That's fine." And no known Umbreon. Just as well. Some lucky trainer might have a shot at it.

"I figured that would be the case, I saw it in the news on the ferry. The only thing that really jumps out is a jittery boy that disappeared in me, but I don't think that's anything to go on. He also heard the news, and he's far from home on his own for the first time." She shrugged. "Well, I'll go try to find my lead ranger. Have a good day, Officer."

With that, she was out of the HQ and onto the streets... And straight into someone crying about a lost Umbreon. "Umbreon, you say? I saw one not too long ago. It's in the neighborhood that way, I can show you."
I only brought two in, myself, so I can't help you there. I do know the limit is supposed to be three.
I have a character with a Staraptor, but she's not a new trainer, either. A Ranger, rather.
Rapier perched on top of a house, near... An Umbreon. That's not something you see everyday. She could only assume that the Umbreon lived there, or nearby. It could be someone's pet, so she shouldn't try anything with it unless it approached her or needed something.

At the station, she found Jenny at her desk. She looked busy, but supposed that was normal. Idle hands would be wasted time in the pursuit of justice, right? "Excuse me, Officer Jenny. I'm a new Ranger transfer into the area, I was hoping you could direct me to the liason?"

Hey, maybe this Jenny would know, "one other thing. Do you know if anyone around here keeps an Umbreon as a pet? Maybe someone in that neighborhood there?"

"That might be best. You're still recovering. Walk with peace." Lumina watched the girl walk out. She hadn't meant to dismiss her, but she just didn't feel comfortable discussing an ongoing investigation with so many ears listening. One that wasn't her own, anyway. If anybody wanted to talk about the coming apocalypse, she'd lend them a hesitant, critical ear, but... Well, she was probably, maybe in the right city, anyway. She still wasn't entirely sold on her information from Keith, but that was the best she had. And all the pieces were coming together, slowly.

Her name spoken drew her attention, and by none other than the crown princess. Another piece of the puzzle, but where did it fit? No matter. "The Crown Princess? Yes, I suppose that puts you over the Court Mage... Ah, excuse me, full name and title, yes? Lumina Lusteria, the Lustrous of Var'Ciel, an island nation at sea. If you wish to hear about this matter, then- nnng..." The headache from before rose again in her skull. She put a hand to her head, sitting herself on the bed. She focused a bit of energy into her fingertips and massaged lightly, "... Then we should discuss it in private. These matters may yet be sensitive. We can sit with that girl, if she's so interested. I didn't catch her name."
Regan managed to see a flash of the Pokemon her bird must have been following. It was an Umbreon, and she had to guess that the Pokemon probably lived around here. The darling thing probably shouldn't be running around in such crowded places, but... Oh well.

More importantly, that boy she thought she was going to be traveling with for now seemed to have disappeared from her side. Must not be the sociable type...

Well, whatever. The Ranger let out a whistle, calling her bird off his search. The Staraptor went to find a new roost while Regan went to find the police station. Needed to contact her Ranger contact.
