Oh yeah, I saw this was up but I haven't begun work on my character yet. Been a bit busy with my own roleplay I am running and the work I've been doing on a sheet for a nation roleplay. I will probably try and get something started today.

I would say that, yes, Shintoism would exist as well.

Huh, this is quite the coincidence. Three people in this thread who live in Tennessee.

Warriors of Sengun: A Pokémon Role-Play (Started, Still Accepting)

Nathaniel Huijara

Name: Nathaniel Huijara
Age: 16
Sex: Male

Appearance: Nathaniel is short for a member of his family for he stands at a measly five feet and four inches tall. Having been prone to sickness for a long period of his early life which bound him to his bedroom, Nathaniel is rather pale and skinny. His weight could only be described as a lack thereof as he weighs only a hundred and twenty-five pounds. Yet, Nathaniel has very fine features which quite a few people might find attractive. He has a square jawline which is well defined and powdered by a very small layer of flaxen stubble. His hair is always kept messy and in a form that makes it seem like Nathaniel had just got out of bed and is in the same flaxen color of stubble, though it also has a few streaks of dark brown running through it. Nathaniel, quite like his mother, has hazel eyes which seem to almost be amber in color. He also wears his mother's bracelet which has a dratini chiseled in the gold.

Nathaniel tends to wear clothing with a coloration of teal or green to it, often with his shirts being teal and a green scarf. He normally wears plain white shorts but also wears jeans as well. Nathaniel carries with him a golden colored duffle bag, which he slings across his left shoulder and down to his right hip, to carry his stuff. His messenger bag is used to carry any potions, berries, or free pokeballs that he doesn't want to put in his duffle bag. A long strap of black leather is wrapped around his right arm which holds six catches for pokeballs, one of which is taken up by a ball. Said strap of black leather can be taken off and worn like a belt or slung across one's chest like a strap. Nathaniel's messenger bag is embroidered with the Huijara family crest, a dratini back lit by a white circle in the form of a crescent moon.

Personality: Nathaniel is what most people could socially awkward. He tends to lean more towards reading or caring for Pokemon than talking to people. He even goes out of his way to avoid places with large groups of people and limits his time near people, or talking to if they can get him to react, to the shortest possible time. Though he may come off as cold, Nathaniel means no harm in the way he acts. It is just the fact that Nathaniel tends to have issues controlling his anxiety which gets especially bad when he is in large crowds or talking to people. Unlike his sister who use their Pokemon to fight by taking blow after blow, Nathaniel prefers to end the battle as quickly as possible with the least damage to his Pokemon. He will prefer to surrender in a battle rather than letting his Pokemon faint.

Profession: Though Nathaniel is indeed a trainer, his goal is to become one of the greatest breeders in the entire of Sengun. He also is a skilled empath, generally towards Pokemon rather than people.
Talents: Being an empath, Nathaniel can tell when something is wrong with someone. Though, he does tend to only use his skills as an empath to help Pokemon and has some issues when trying to tell what is wrong with a person. Nathaniel has read close to twenty books on pokemon breeding and has gotten quite skilled at the care for Pokemon in the process. But, that is about all Nathaniel is good at doing. He has never been able to truly find anything else he has been good at.

Starter Pokemon: An Aquatra named Anpan for his love of the baked desert of anpan(Japanese sweet roll filled with red bean paste).

Inventory:
-5 Pokeballs
-5 Potions
-5 Antidotes(Poison)
-A Sewing kit(Three needles and six feet of string.
-Five changes of clothing(All blue and green)
-P$ 1500 in cash for food and other supplies
-A Standard-issue PokéLink in blue.

Hometown: Mystriver City, Mystriver Isle, Segun

Biography

Biography:
Nathaniel is the only son of the Huijura family and the youngest of six children. Nathaniel was extremely prone to sickness after birth and was often stuck to his bedroom in the Huijura family manor. He grew up without knowing his mother for she died during child birth. Nathaniel's relationship with his sisters and father was always distant and tense for they blamed him for his mother's death. But, his father couldn't help but love him. Nathaniel had inherited his mother's love for Pokemon and abilities as an empath.

Nathaniel was never really interested in being a trainer until he watched a Pokemon battle between two trainers when he was seven. The high speed battle and love that the trainers showed for their Pokemon even when they lost their battles. Yet, Nathaniel couldn't help but wonder why one must let their Pokemon faint. Though he did not posses a Pokemon of his own, Nathaniel was determined to never let his Pokemon faint from a battle. A few years later, after Nathaniel's fifteenth birthday, his father died from a heart attack. This event made Nathaniel the only living male of the Huijura line and thus the inheritor of the Huijura estate.

Nathaniel was made even more of an outcast from his sisters and essentially became the only member of the Huijura family. Yet, this did not stop him from becoming a trainer. He left his estate in the hands of a friend of the family when he left Mystriver City. Before he left, Nathaniel was met an aquatra which seemed to like his Anpan. He began to notice that the aquatra was following him and decided that he would ask the aquatra if it wanted to come with him. Nathaniel knew the answer before asking but decided to ask anyway. After recieving an affirmative, he tapped the pokeball on its head and put it into the ball. Nathaniel called Illex Laboratories in order to tell them that he was coming to get a pokedex from the labs.

Oh, you mean the ninja character part? If so, yes. I'm at least pretty sure I answered the age limit question.

0.0 Wow, I also live in Tennessee. Middle Tennessee specifically.

Well, considering the dangers of the world in general and the general lack of health care in the world, I would say that the average life expectancy of is around 32 years old. Which, is the same life expectancy of medieval china. So, any older than forty would not be hard to do but the characters are more than likely not going to have the safest or healthiest lives. Also considering that bandits are a common sight, characters aren't likely to make it much further in life than fifty years. Considering that no character is perfect in a fight, getting injured is nearly a sure fact. So, I would consider it pretty lucky to live past the age of forty to forty-five. Heck, even Shogun Izami, with the strongest Shogunate overall, is only fifty-three years old and his father died at the age of thirty-eight.

Botan Ichihara is accepted. He may be posted in the Characters Tab.

That makes a total of five accepted characters. Then there is Pie Flavor's character who's history is all that is needed to be worked on. So, that will make six once he is done. Until then, let's start some conversation.

Conversation One:

So far, this has gotten far enough that I feel it is time for me to reveal the one thing which placed the idea of this in my head. Here it is, Chris J. Nairn's The Year of the Snake. It just popped up during my daily look through my subscriptions and I decided to listen to it. Lo and behold, I got the idea for an Asian inspired roleplay. Of course, I don't really have an inkling of what I was going to do for it but then I just started writing and what we have today is what was created.

Conversation Two:

As a Dark Souls fan, I personally find it really cool to see Alonne's model used in this. Personally, I think he fits the role of a samurai really well. Particularly, he fits the role of a wandering rōnin. He comes from lands far from that of the Old Iron King and helps him rise from the meager beginnings of his kingdom to a powerful lord. Yet, at least from my stand point, it was this meager beginnings that Alonne was drawn to. He felt he could help the Iron King and thus stayed with him. Once the Iron King was powerful enough to guide himself, Alonne left for he felt he had achieved his goal.

Now then, let the life of conversation flow through this thread like a river flows from a mountain or ocean.
