Personality

Derrik is a very curious person, especially regarding pokemon and is always eager to learn about them. Being a bit too eager that it tends to get him bit/scratched/clawed or other various types of injuries from getting too close to pokemon. His upbringing leaving him reckless; heading straight into things without thinking and is very passionate in his studies that he can't help but give information, even when no one asks for it. Yet, he believes in fairness and makes sure no trace of foulness or cheating takes place and goes out of his way to help those who have been wronged; whether by someone else or himself as he see's it as disgraceful.

Starter Town

Autrio region (australian themed) Foreigner recently arrived at Argentglade

Biography

Born into a poor family made up of his parents, two brothers and three sisters. A family known as traveling healers with no actual home for they lived in the wild where they researched and studied pokemon. Doing so to discover new ways to heal them of injuries and to learn the habits of pokemon that rarely if never interact or come across humans. This left the family constantly changing locations, though twice a month his parents travel into nearby town to help any sick pokemon as Derrik; the youngest of family to be watched and taught by his siblings.

His parents were often gone for weeks at a time or merely days and they did so without asking for payment as saving lives was enough. Derrik has learned much over the years of living in the wild, being taught the way of survival; more how to handle wild pokemon, which resulted in him getting injured countless time as the family gained experience by doing.

As he aged, so too did his boldness; taking care of the more ferocious and dangerous pokemon that his siblings were too scared to deal with. On one such incident, this recklessness of trying to tend to an female pyroar with an injured leg; had moved too close too fast and received a strong swipe that cost him his right eye.

This attack was, ironically an eye opener for though he lost an eye, this experience helped him to realize the scale of pokemon he has helped was miniscule. Knowing there were still countless pokemon out there to find, to study and how so inexperienced he was; at that moment, Derrick decided it was time to travel the world. It was his chance to not only study pokemon, but to befriend them for he had read in books of how people actually captured pokemon and traveled with them as companions, though at first the thought of making them fight irked him.

The more he read and learned of trainers and how they battled and trained together in order to grow stronger both in strength and bond. Nothing intrigued him more and while his parents discouraged at the thought of him leaving, gave him what little they could scrape together and wished him a safe journey.

Derrick wondered where the begin, when recalling his meeting with a trainer who spoke of his homeland. This encounter lasted a day; listening to the traveler speak of the Huji region regarding its town and mysterious, mythical monuments, but what caught his interest the most were the pokemon. He learned of many new exotic pokemon; all of various size and shape not found in the Autrio region and desired to discover and research these foreign creatures to further broaden his knowledge on their way of life both of the wild and with trainers.

After much thinking, recalling all that he was told and made his decision to set out to the Huji region. It was a brand new, unknown experience for him and though he had no idea what to expect; at least had a starting point with the traveling trainer mentioning a port town perfect for foreign trainers to start at....

Questions

1. Immediately give first aid to said injured rattata and while curious of the rustling, but with an injured pokemon and decide to leave it be and take the rattata to the nearest pokemon center.
-Gat remains perplexed and appalled that his trainer even bothers to waste his time with the pathetic rat.

2. Amazed at such a massive pokemon and put the journey on hold to learn of a snorlax's habit and use the gained info for the best way to move the snorlax without causing damage to the bridge or the pokemon for only a fool would pass up such an opportunity to study such a strange creature.
-Gat is angry being stuck with his trainer watching the slumbering fat slob

3. Excited to witness the experience of a mother hoot hoot scrounging for food for its young and watch every moment silently while making sure not to disturb it and inspect the owl for any hint of possible injuries. Afterwards leave some food behind then be on my way while jotting the event down in his research journal
-gat is filled with the blood thirsty malice at the hoot hoot that dares steal from him

4. Realize that the purpose of this attack is due to him entering their territory and quickly surmise the best route for escape. After getting away, my curiosity gets to me and I carefully sneak into their nest to gain as much info before finally being found and once again escaping, though with a fair amount of painful stings.
-gat thinks I'm an complete and utter moron

5. Shorts are cool
-gat would facepalm if he had hands to facepalm (xD)

@whimsley

alright, cool and already made those edits and will add the town.

Pokémon: One (~Looking for one player and a Co-GM!~)

Man, not to be that guy, but does no one acknowledge that there are factions doing things IC? It's cool because most of them don't interact with the player, but I expected some kind of reaction from the OOC...

@Pikmin Eye

well I'm not a part of the rp at all, but *places hands against face in dramatic fashion* dios mio!

good enough of a reaction for you?

Pokémon: One (~Looking for one player and a Co-GM!~)

@samreaper *Pops out of dinosaur doll suit* Sorry, this thing really muffles my voice.

I'm totally fine with the Aussie persona, but he shouldn't be from Australia per say. You can say he's from any of the other known Pokémon regions if you want to be from a foreign place, but give an in depth explanation as to why he came to Huji. Other than that, your character looks great!

(Sorry I missed it, @ me for better results, I usually go to my notifications to respond to people)

@Xan the G It is a 3v3 situation, but beginner trainers like the Sailors don't quite realize that.

@Eklispe ...

@Whimsley

Alright, edited my cs, left the town I'd be starting at blank for the time being until a spot opens up *pops back into a dinosaur doll*

Pokémon: One (~Looking for one player and a Co-GM!~)

welp, let me know if a spot opens up

One Piece: An Odyssey (Alternate Reality)

@hatakekuro@Infichi@Classpet@FellbloodFool@KillBox@jageroux

Morning came with the rising sun warming the chilly, crisp air that covered the ship in a cold and damp layer of salt twinkling dew. A thin fog wafted along the water; coiling and waving as if a living being stretching out shapeless limbs from the dense wall of smog hovering around the island ahead. Only the faintest of an outline of structure let travelers know an island lie hidden behind the white, murky wall; closer the ship drew as if to be swallowed up.

The browsprit passed through the wall of fog. So thick that it seemed as if the ship had pierced the lumbering beast lurking, ever hungry for travelers to enter its massive maw and now those upon the ship were surrounded by the heavy white whispy smoke.

Impossible to see more than a few feet and only the creaking of the ship and hidden sea crashing beneath them was all that could be heard. Leaving them feel trapped...locked away from the rest of the world...desolate and alone. No signs of life to be seen in all directions, not that one would be able to in this dense ocean of fog; a loud, ear piercing screech shattered the silence like glass, lasting for only seconds then...

"Travelers..adventures....tourist! Whoever you may be...wherever you came from..know that what awaits you all are sights that will leave you trembling!"A voice echoed from all over, seeming to weave through the whispy smoke while ahead the faintest of two red glows waited like crimson eyes of a monster watching them."Continue if you be bold...brave. Do not be wary nor scared...keep on the path for what lies beyond this smog is what all desire and crave. A reward awaits you wary souls..do not give up!"On the voice boomed as the ship creaked forward, the two red lights glowing brighter, unsure if this voice a welcome or warning."Come and receive all that you dreamed of...to witness the sight of the unimaginable that will leave all wishing it would never end!"

The ship finally broke free from the prison of fog."Welcome all...to Isle Cirque de Freak!!!"

Before them rested a massive circus tent surrounding the entire island with the entrance being the head of a big smiling clown with blinking red eyes and a billboard above its head with the words-Welcome to Cirque De Freak followed by a goofy laugh. A wide open mouth for tourist to enter that lead to the port where ships of all sizes lined up. Fun carnival music and the air smelling of a mixture of delicious, mouth watering food and sweet, sweet candy. People made up of adults and kids, everywhere traversing to the endless array of booths holding games or food stands held by chefs from all over the world while loud cheerful screams came from the assortment of rides. At the very center of the island, where all could see, stood a large circus tent where the main attraction took place every night at 9 pm; a show that all attended to be entertained and wowed.

This is the isle of never ending fun and excitement and one that contained a strange mystery.

Cirque De Freak welcomes all with open arms...though will you ever leave?
