@Mae So about the magic. I know I said Rallis can use it, but it’s to a VERY limited extent. It’s not that he’s studied or had any proper training, it’s just something he does like a reflex. I wanted to incorporate it into his stealth as he’d have some sort of camouflage ability, and possible being able to manipulate the flight of his arrows (perhaps wind or just changing trajectory. I’ll leave that up to you)

Where I live changed slightly to squatting in toolshed Wormwood calls woodbox.

Sheesh how many of us are just various stages of hobo? 🤣

@Dark Cloud

Is that not what most fantasy stories are? Adventure hobos?

@TheNoCoKid maybe Rall has come across Wormwood in the woods before and after realizing he is not a threat he come out every do often to check up on the dumb little lizard? Lol

@Dark Cloud

@Dark Cloud Honestly I could see Rallis and Wormwood having some fun interactions. Like, if Wormwood is good at finding things (I.e. arrow materials or tracking his targets), Rallis could “pay” him in food or other stuff to keep him going. It’d be less like a sidekick and more a paid partnership since Rallis could also supply Wormwood with stuff from the Hamlet or possibly give him an alternate residence in his cabin. 😜

Rallis the Hunter

Rallis

_{+ Hunter/Scout +
23 in Human Years|| Male || 6'1 Athletic Build || Half-Elf}

> In the Hamlet I live in a cabin on the outskirts of town. I prefer living close to the woods in order to keep watch.
> I spend most of my time hunting in the woods. Villagers in the Hamlet know my skill with a bow and are willing to pay decent money - by Hamlet standards - so they don't have to venture into the woods.
> I am known for having a mildly standoffish demeanor. Due to incidents in my past, I'm not the most trusting person so it leaves me guarded at times.
> My current goal is to survive. So long as I have a bow in my hands and the freedom of the world stretched out before me, I don't care much where I am or what I'm doing. My only roadbloack tends to be my never-ending search for money.
> My secret is I'm a Half-Elf. Because of my Fey ancestry, I have a certain amount of magic which I use to aid in my daily hunts in the forest. Forest dwellers are mistrusted though, so I try to keep my elf side a closely guarded secret. As such, I'm almost always seen wearing my hood in town to keep people from seeing my elvish ears, the most defining trait of mine.

Goals and Quests

Rallis has been living in the Hamlet for a few years at this point, and the re-opening of the Adventurer's Guild has him intrigued. The idea of being a bounty hunter could open new possibilities for earning some extra money for food and other necessities.

Inventory

[ Clothes ] Aside from regular villager's clothes, Rallis is almost never seen without the bright blue hooded cloak that covers his head. Why such a cloak doesn't give him away in the green forest is anybody's guess.
[ Sling ] A popular game and toy in the village. Powered by pebbles and rocks.
[ Waterskin ] For when you get thirsty.
[ Snacks ] it's simple food, but lounging in the sun always makes lunchtime special.

So... I think I fused Legolas and Spike Spiegal and this was the result. Lmk if he's approved!

@TheNoCoKid awesome, welcome aboard! What sort of characters are you leaning towards?

@Mae

I thought it could be fun to do either a ranger or a mage sort of character? Like the ranger would be a village hunter who hunts in the nearby woods, and joins the guild because hunting monsters/criminals would be better pay.

The mage would be more like a classic “Isekai hero” type character who is a farmhand or something and discovers he has latent magical potential. Personally I’m a fan of magic systems where each character is adept at one form of magic. Makes it all more unique.

This sounds really interesting! I'd love to take a spot here! I even have some character ideas brewing already!

Pokémon: The Next Hunt

@LuckyBlackCat

As Harry arrived in the campus square, he found a low wall and sat on top of it for a few moments as he watched the throng of students rush out from the school doors and down the massive staircase that led to the school. A few students even brought out their Cyclizars to make the descent quicker. Harry debated whether or not to ask if there was a method to make the dragon Pokémon more manageable, but his thoughts were interrupted by a sudden warmth on his legs. Looking down, the young trainer was greeted by the sight of Moony sleeping in his lap.

"Breaking out again, buddy?" Harry just stroked the soft fur of the little Teddiursa. There was no rush for him to get into things right now. As far as he was aware, no other students had access to Ms. Raifort's notes like he had so it stood to reason that no one else would be anywhere close to finding the Ruinous Pokémon even if they wanted to. The only other students would be... Adam and Renata. As he thought of the ghost girl, he felt Stiker suddenly shift on top of his head, but no one was around when he looked up. Shrugging it off, Harry grabbed his backpack and checked his physical map one last time. "Logically we're going to have to start in the South Province. It seems like the first tomb is somewhere in Area Five if I did my math right..."

In a matter of moments, Harry's words devolved into a bunch of techno-babble that most students would go cross-eyed just from thinking about. It wasn't until he heard a soft 'boo' that he finally glanced up and saw Renata standing next to him; a shy Gastly peeking out from behind her shoulders. Harry shivered for a moment upon seeing the Gastly AND the Greavard, but forced himself to stay calm.

The Ruinous Quartet. I take it you do have some idea how to find them? If it helps, I know a few things about myths and history." The girl stood there as she waited for Harry to consider her offer.

"I... well..." Harry tried to begin. "I'm not really one for the whole te- OW!" He was cut short as Striker jumped up suddenly pecked him in the head. "Ok! I get it!" Harry shooed the bird away from his head before continuing. "I guess what I meant to say is... Would you consider teaming up with me? Admittedly, I've got a rough history with teams, but if you promise you want to help and you WON'T backstab me, then I will need help with battling the Quartet if they're still violent." Harry rubbed his head in pain and embarrassment as Striker cooed proudly in the air behind him. Harry was making new friends!

Bumping to say this is still a thing I'm working on. Life picked up on my end and a lot is happening atm.

Pokémon: The Next Hunt

One hour later...

Harry leaned against the far wall only half paying attention as Director Clavell's voice echoed from the loudreds onstage. "Go wherever you want, travel across Paldea, and find something to treasure!". Mentally, Harry was already plotting out the path to the first vault on his Xtranceiver. He could probably make it in a day and a half if Rotor decided he was willing to cooperate today. Thinking about getting back on that Cyclizar was enough to make Harry shudder. He'd read that Cyclizar was the main method of transport around the Paldea reagion and had counted himself extremely lucky when he found one on its own shortly after arriving. However, Rotor proved he didn't like the idea of being a trainer's Pokémon and would often rebel unless Harry made a peace offering with food. From on top of his trainer's head, Striker cooed protectively. He could sense Harry's cautiousness and saw him fiddling with Rotor's Pokeball. "Rrrr..." Even the small bird wasn't Rotor's biggest fan.

As Clavell's speech was drawing to a close, Harry looked up to see the assembled students break out into cheers and applause. Large groups began to break off and push to get to the exits while other students let out their flying Pokémon and airlifted themselves out of the school. "Welp. Looks like it's time to go, buddy. We'll see how Rotor is feeling once we get to Mezagoza Square" Turning his attention to the crowd in front of him, Harry began making the trek back through the school. Already, he was imagining the praise he'd receive upon finding these four lost Pokémon. Harry was so lost in thought, he didn't notice a pair of eyes following him the whole way down.

I will attempt to write up a sheet soon. Just giving a heads up that I'm not abandoning this or anything right now. Was waiting for the OOC and to see what anyone else went with, but it seems to be slow going? So I'll start work on a CS tomorrow.

@The World

Sorry, this has been slipping onto my backburner because I have to pick up a second job and that’s been a slow going process.
