Tales from Frontier Village: A Rune Factory Roleplay

I would totally be down to play a RF roleplay.

The Professor's Lab. A Pokemon RP. Part 1: Escape. ACCEPTING NEW PLAYERS

@KatherinWinter I'm still waiting for people to join.

But maybe people don't no where to start so I'll try making a better introduction. I've just been so busy I haven't had time to plot something, but I have time today so expect something coming up soon.

@Zanderkvothe

The mutant pokemon sheets are with the trainer characters, because they're their Pokemon. I don't want people to have to look in another section to find out what Pokemon each trainer has. If people get their mutant Pokemon approved they're going to be attached to whatever human character they've also came up with.

There's not going to be a huge amount of mutants, they're going to be rare and each of them will be one of a kind, most NPCs won't even have them.

If you want to share mutants and let others use them feel free to.

@Gareth Hey, yeah go ahead.

Sorry I've been away for awhile, got caught up in another project.

I've started the game, I'm going to try posting every couple days if nobody else does to try to keep this active (I just hope it doesn't come off as spaming).

The Professor's Lab. A Pokemon RP. Part 1: Escape. ACCEPTING NEW PLAYERS

Professor Sy sat at his desk going over the last five reports he received from the scientists at the other stations. He was noticed the powers of some of his subjects were developing at faster rates than others. He was compiling a graph that would give him a better picture of what the average was.

He took a second to take a sip of his soda, scanning over the data through the lenses of his glasses. He rubbed his eyes, he wanted to break but with this new intriguing development he knew he wouldn't be getting any sleep soon.

His eyes darted over to the reports from his prize pupils. He would say, just from a glance, that they were developing at an average rate compared to his peers. He would get a better idea once the graphs were finally compiled. It didn't matter much though, for it wasn't their speed of development he choose them for, but rather the role they would serve.

He took one final glance at their profile pictures, each of their faces had either fearful or angered look.

"I will have to have new photos taken of them once their programming is finished."

With that last thought he turned back to his graphs, yawning at the screen before getting back to typing.

I'm interested.

@Korin

Sorry for the late response, got hanged up with work.

Do you have an idea for a character or do you want to use the pre-made ones?

Pokemon Science Experiment RP idea

Sorry it took me a couple more days then expected to get this set this up.

The Professor's Lab. A Pokemon RP. Part 1: Escape. ACCEPTING NEW PLAYERS

Story:

The shadows of dozens of Skarmories and Fearows crawl across broken concrete streets. Clouds of smoke, the billow of curtains through broken glassed windows, and the sound of footsteps from captured citizens marching underground; that is the scene you can see from your bed bunk.
On the 2nd floor of the Saint Stella’s Trainer School are the classrooms that have been converted into makeshift jail cells for the children captured and brought there. The whole school was refitted and turned into a science facility almost immediately after Team Unown invaded and took over Whitewater Town.
You, along with almost every other kid in town, were brought to the facility and tattooed with a five digit number. During the day you’ve been left in the classrooms where bunk beds have been set up, but during the night you’re either taken into the lab to receive injections or out into the yard to be trained.
What these injections do isn’t clear, but several kids have experienced symptoms from the shots, such as dizziness, fever, and rashes. Others have developed strange abilities, like being to heal people by touch, or read other people’s thoughts. Despite these abilities, no one as of yet has been able to escape the lab. These special abilities are unpredictable or not very useful.
To make matters worse, Professor Sy also keeps a special eye on all his experiments, making escape even more difficult. Professor Sy is the lead researcher there and makes the decisions for the all the prisoners/subjects.
You’re not sure what Professor Sy’s experiments are for, but the strange thing is that he allows all of you to have Pokemon. He only allows each child to have one love level Pokemon. The professor, taking the extra step to stop anyone from using their Pokemon against him, fitted each Mon with a band that prevents them from raising their levels.
Anyone who had Pokemon before the raid was allowed to keep one of them. Those without Pokemon were given one of the monsters created by the organization.
Over the past two weeks you’ve captured you’ve been forced to battle with your Pokemon against others. You’ve seen some kids been taken away from the rest to focus on controlling their powers. Others still it seems Sy is more interested in as he trains them personally.
The going rumor is that Team Unown is trying to raise an army. The other rumor going around is that they’re going to ship all of you away from Whitewater Town forever to some unknown land for more intense training.
Nobody sure if the rumors are true or not, but regardless, escape is a must.

Objective:

Objectives:
1. Escape Professor Sy’s laboratory.
2. Survive in the destroyed town without getting caught.
3. Free the captured adults from the underground.
4. Defeat Team Unown and save the town.

*Since I don’t know how long this will last or how long every roleplayer will be around for, for this first installment we’ll focus solely on the first objective. When the first objective is achieved for all players I will created another thread for Objective 2 in which old players can either continue or quit, and we can get some new players in as well.

Characters:

Your main character should ideally be between 5 - 19 years of age. If you want to play multiple characters, including adult characters, feel free to at any time (just don’t play characters other people have created unless you have their permission).
Human powers should be minimal and with restrictions. For instance, a healing power would only be able to heal a little HP and would make the user tired afterwards, or a telepathic ability would only allow the user to hear what people are thinking currently but they can’t control when it happens (dice rolls would be used to determine this).
Your character doesn’t have to have a special ability, which would give you a benefit as your character would be less monitored and Team Unown would ignore you more often.
If you want your character can be working with the villains later on (be aware though, your character may be kicked out of Team Unown if they don’t do a good job).

Additionally, as some people have trouble making characters, I have included five characters that people can claim and play as if they so wish.
As we start out I will play any and all characters that aren’t picked until someone claims them in which then I will relinquish control.
Playing a premade character is totally optional, feel free to make your own character.

Pokemon:

There are two types of Pokemon in this game: normals and mutants.
Normals are any regular Pokemon from the game. You can have as many of them as you want (but remember you can only carry six Pokemon with you at any one time). No ledgies unless I approve of them.
Only 1st and 2nd Generation Pokemon can be used as this takes place in Johto (Gen 2 universe)

Mutants are Pokemon modified by the lab. You can create your own mutant Pokemon or find one off the web (though I recommend that you credit the original creator).
Everyone only gets one mutant creature. You can have them as your starter or get one later in the game. Any mutant Pokemon have to be approved by me to make sure they're not overpowered.
Mutant creatures can be fusions of two Pokemon (but no more than two), a retyping of an existing Pokemon, an unreleased beta Pokemon, or some new take on an existing Pokemon. Simple recolours do not count.
Only mutated versions of 1st and 2nd Generation Pokemon can be used.

Rules:

1. Normal forum rules. No cussing, excessive violence, sexual content, spaming, flaming, etc, etc.

2. No godmoding, including making overpowered Pokemon, helpful coincidences, or easy escapes. If you win, it has to be earned, if you escape it has to be earned.

3. Double posting is allowed only after 12 hours have past and no one else has posted.

4. Don't control other people's characters.

5. If you don't respond after a week I'll take over your character temporarily (if you want to leave the RP let me know. If real life is in the way but you still want to play let me know and I'll put your character in limbo. I'll return control of the character if and when you come back.)

6. Related to the previous rule, keep grammar neat and use proper spacing throughout the entire rp. I don't want walls of text of stuff I can't read.

7. This is a free roleplay so I'm not expecting huge paragraphs or anything really descriptive but please refrain from one sentence posts if you can.

8. You don't have to get your character approved by me to start posting but remember the rules. Your character should not be overpowered or inappropriate; follow all the rules of the RP when making your character.

Motive:
When Jack was staying at his Uncle’s farm one summer he noticed they had a real problem with an infestation of Beedrill. His uncle kept trying to scare them off with his Growlithe’s flamethrower but they kept coming back. Jack figured out that he could lure them away with some honey and tree sap.

If mutant, give species description:
Flinda is the first in the “Pokemon-to-tool” product line. Created to be a lighter and can opener in one, it seems that the Cyndaquil DNA didn’t mutate the correct way.
The single light on its back reflects against its body giving it a metallic shine; although oddly enough it is not a Steel type. Its fur is laced with metallic residue, be careful when petting as you may obtain sliver sized cuts on your hand.
Flinda likes to uses its pointy paws to dig and climb sheer cliff faces and buildings. Sometimes when rubbing its paws together it’ll create tons of sparks. Research has shown its left paws and right paws have two different types of metallic residue on them.

Character
Name:
Cara
Gender:
Female
Age: 11
Id:
02583

Appearance:

Ulterior Objective:
Cara doesn’t really have any big dreams. She does like drawing though, and wants to find a boyfriend. Mainly though she wants to keep Team Unown from knowing who her dad is.
Motive:
As a child Cara travelled a lot as her father was always on the move. She never really understood why until the raid when her father told her everything. Since then Cara’s been quieter.
Characteristics:
Rather shy and a bit bookish. She’s a bit of loner, spending her time drawing and reading. Doesn’t have much interest in Pokemon but doesn’t hate them or anything. Jealous of others who are more popular than her but leaves her petty insults inside her head or in her diary. Love sick romantic, spends hours daydreaming her perfect guy.

Power:
She has the ability to turn translucent, but not invisible. Can be seen usually pretty well in day but at night it’s a lot harder and in the water it’s almost impossible. She has a hard time turning it off once on, she’s always out of breath when she becomes lucent again.

Is one of the kids being personally trained by Professor Sy.

Mutant
Appearance:

Characteristics:
He doesn’t say much or do much. Mostly stands in one place looking at nothing, occasionally will foam at the mouth while doing so. He’ll follow any order without hesitation. If petted gently will look at whoever is touching them. If he really like someone he will react more to them and nudge them looking to petted more.
If mutant, give species description:
0-Dile is the prototype for a new and improved Pokegear. The 0-Dile is the first Pokegear able to withstand water pressure up to 10,000 feet deep (possibly even further, more testing is required).
The 0-Dile comes with all the Pokegear cards already installed: Map, Radio, Phone, and Watch. The 0-Dile has a touch sensitive screen on its chest, turning it on and switch between apps is as easy as pressing its belly button (the O-Dile may become ticklish when using the touch screen making it difficult to use the screen function, more testing is required).
The five spikes on the 0-Dile are retractable. The spikes retract or raise depending on how strong the phone signal is in the area, the higher the spikes the stronger the signal.

Character
Name:
Thomas
Gender:
Male
Age:
7
Id:
47336

Appearance:

Ulterior Objective:
Thomas wants to be rich and move away from this town. He hasn’t quite figured out how he’s going to do so yet. He has an interest in gambling and the stock market. He doesn’t quite know how those things work but he knows they can make money.
Motive:
Thomas comes from a fairly poor family, and is also the youngest of five. He’s the one in the family he always gets the hand-me downs from everyone else. He hates how the kids pick on him for his old and worn down clothing. He feels underappreciated in his family, as he often gets forgotten, he doubts they would miss him he was gone.
Characteristics:
He’s witty and likes to talk. Good at talking his way out of trouble. Has a fondness for poetry. Loves Pokemon, simply adores them; gets embarrassed when he’s caught talking to Pokemon with baby talk. Thinks being rude to people is how you show your tough, still developing his social skills.

Power:
Ability to make complicated calculations in his head, doesn’t quite know how the math works, he just gets numbers in his head. The calculations are accurate 83% of the time. Using this ability will give him a large headache. This ability doesn’t always work.
Extra Notes:
Is one of the kids being personally trained by Professor Sy.

Pokemon

Normal or Mutant?:
Mutant
Appearance:

Characteristics:
He likes to sing and bounce around to his own tunes. Not great with people, tries to smack anyone with his leaf if they come near. Doesn’t follow commands unless they’re given by someone he respects. Seems to like leaders or those who are prideful in themselves, becomes joyous when getting a complement from people like that.
If mutant, give species description:
Happa is a mistake. When trying to engineer a Chikorita with a better scent (for making perfume), this creature immerge. It’s theorized a problem occurred while awakening dormant genes in the Chikorita, causing it to morph into an ancient form of itself. Ancient people referred to Chikorita by the name of “Happa”.
Happa can stick to virtually any surface. It uses this ability to climb trees in search of stronger sunlight. Like a normal Chikorita, it’s like to bathe in warm sunlight and can uses its leaf to find warm places.
During the night It wanders the ground in search of food; it’s large single eye has surprisingly good night vision. It leaves tiny seeds behind where ever it goes. If the seeds land it good soil they’ll grow into tiny pink flowers.

Character
Name:
Yuki
Gender:
Female
Age:
13
Id:
17465

Appearance:

Ulterior Objective:
Yuki wants to be a photographer when she grows up. She’s already taken tons of pictures and is trying to hone her craft more. She wants to go to the prestigious Earl’s School for the arts, but her family doesn’t have a lot of money. She started her Pokemon journey as a way to take more interesting photos and start earning money for her college fund.
Motive:
Yuki’s always had a thing for bright lights ever since she went to her first spring festival. She uses her photos to get away from her home life where her parents fight all the time due to her father’s obsessive gambling. Her father’s gambling is also the reason she has to start saving up for her college fund now as she doesn’t have much of a college fund saved as much as her mother tries to save it up.
Characteristics:
Warm and bright, she loves other people. She has a real problem with personal space though and hugs are too tight. She likes Pokemon, but prefers to take pictures of them then to battle. She can be a cry baby sometimes, and will get emotional over the slightest problem. When she’s happy she’s super motivated, but when she prefers to just stay in bed and curl up. She loves photography and fireworks, hates the dark and being alone.

Power:
Yuki doesn’t have any noticeable powers, yet…
Extra Notes:
She was travelling through Whitewater Town when Team Unown attacked. Her home town is Fuchsia City.

Character
Name:
Arnold
Gender:
Male
Age:
15
Id:
62883

Appearance:

Ulterior Objective:
Arnold wants to have his mother’s respect. He wants a lot of people’s respect actually, but his mother’s is by far the most important to him. He wants to be taken seriously and not be seen as a joke.
Motive:
When he was younger he was left alone as his mother spent most of her time working for Team Unown and the rest of the time criticizing him for not working enough around the house. When he was old enough to join Team Unown he did so to appease his mother which didn’t really work. He’s looked down by most of the Team Unown members because of his young age. The only one who doesn’t look down on him is Professor Sy, whom Arnold looks up to as a sort of father figure.
Characteristics:
Arnold is prissy and a major neat freak. Tries to act cool and suave but freaks out if he gets a single speck of dirt on his clothes. Pretends he likes Professor’s Sy experiments but he actually finds them extremely disturbing. Likes to tease kids around his age but will act kindly towards the much younger ones. Doesn’t really like Pokemon just sees them as just a means to fight battles; even so doesn’t like seeing them being tested on.

Power:
Arnold has no powers…?
Extra Notes:
As he is not a prisoner he’s not tattooed with his ID number.

The Professor's Lab. A Pokemon RP. Part 1: Escape. ACCEPTING NEW PLAYERS

Alright, lets see how many people are interested in this.

Pokemon Science Experiment RP idea

Oh wow, after such a long time I thought this idea was dead.
It's just chance I checked back on it today.

I make the thread if people are interested.

I can probably have something up by either today or tomorrow.
