Just found out an online friend I used to RP with passed away very suddenly and unexpectedly. Didn't know them super well, but the news is saddening all the same =(

Bio

Long timer roleplayer, been at it for... god, almost 15 years now all told. Hasn't been all sunshine and roses, but I like to think I've improved somewhat steadily as time has gone on.

I generally like to play older characters, or at least toward the higher end of an age range. Also, just about all of my characters are caring and protective in some capacity, even the rare meanie that I make.

I play a mixture of male and female characters. I myself am a guy.

Generally speaking I try to post at least once per week.

@Saltwater ThiefI don't see him capable of getting away with that "discreetly." If he used Vix as a distraction, meaning she would have to directly affect those personnel at the truck, then he would have more luck but don't you think that just incriminates your character and Vix? As long as she doesn't attack the personnel, then she should be fine as far as legality. If he isn't caught "stealing" Pokeballs, then he might get away with it. But when you steal potential evidence, lesson for the real world, it cannot be used as proof in court.


Seth probably doesn't care about evidence and court proceedings as much as making sure the Pokemon don't get subjected to whatever it is, especially since he doesn't see the Club as a criminal thing at all (terrible organization for terrible people, sure, but not criminals). But, if that's your stance on the whole thing, nevermind then.

@Feisty-Pants No need to respond to Seth if you post, I'll be snipping mine and re-doing things. No idea what he'll be doing instead, but it probably won't involve Vix.
@Saltwater ThiefWhy don't you tell me what you're even up to?


My intent is to get a look in the van and if possible make off with a box or two of Pokeballs. For obvious reasons, if Club Staff sees Seth doing that, it's not going to work. If I can get a distraction from Vix it's less of an issue, but if I can't either because she says no or I run out of waiting time before the GM post, I need to know specifics on how the van is being loaded to see if it's even possible to get in there. If it's just the man & woman doing everything, it becomes much easier to do so. If there's a 3rd NPC in charge of taping the boxes shut and carrying them to the van, it's harder and requires timing but is still doable. But if there are 5 other NPCs, one of whom is always watching the van, it's almost impossible.

Since your answer implied that you would like me to not touch NPCs that aren't my own mons, I asked because my post will rely heavily on that information and I'm not to fill in that data myself.
@Saltwater ThiefThe Pokemon Club is GM territory. What you have free reign over is your characters. So no, you will not touch GM characters and plots.


Okay, in that case, what are the details of the loading process for the van? Specifically, how many others are there besides the specific man & woman, what is the general physical description of each, what are their parts in the Club's trading process, and roughly speaking, how far away from the table is the van?
@Saltwater Thief
Atallia is already a brunette! ;-;

Unless we change her...


I'll make an exception then.
Bonus Points if they're all fiery redheads.
Heh heh heh.

Come at me.
@Saltwater ThiefWhat do you mean by scenic detail? Do you mean describing Viridian City? Once I put the IC setting/introduction for Viridian City, then I don't care what else players do with it. Just know there's a map.


Well, to use the current scenario as an example, if I want to do something with the Pokemon Club outside of the Lodge that doesn't involve a confrontation with Pokemon (which I do), am I free to color in their operation outside of the table and the man & woman (ie if they have others helping them, how many, what they're doing, etc), or would you rather I asked for that kind of info?

I'm fine either way, I'd just like to know for the sake of making this go nicely for us both.
I'll work on getting another GM post out this week.


I'm still waiting on Feisty, but if it gets down to it I'll assume the answer was no and move.

Out of curiosity and for reference, are you the kind of GM who lets his players fill in scenic details and you adapt accordingly, or would you prefer we ask because you have them planned out already?
I saw that @NarcissisticPotato was kind enough to immortalize Wilhelm into this RP even in my absence, and I considered bringing him back. Then I had a better idea...
