Digimon: Materialization

Characters

Tamer

Name:
Tsubomi Saito
Age:
17
Appearance:
Image
Digivice variant:
Digivice VB, purple, black, and silver in color.
Digimon partner(s):
Fafnir and Wynter
Personality:
Attempts to describe her traditionally are generally met with failure, as she is eccentric to the point of being nearly non-understandable. The most obvious facets of her personality are her strange sense of humor and her tendency to either be extremely excitable and extroverted or extremely introverted and reflective, with seemingly no middle ground aside from her "jokes."
She has a somewhat unhealthy obsession with snakes and an equally unhealthy hatred of insects, both exacerbated by her rather severe Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
Backstory:
Incredibly intelligent and well educated; in a sense she is exactly what one would expect from the child of two highly intelligent parents, in that she is not only a prodigy in many regards, but has few social skills and many odd quirks. Born to a father who works for a large electronics company and a college-professor mother, Tsubomi has never wanted for anything. Being home-schooled by her high-expectation mother, she spent her days sleeping and finding entertainment in the internet while her nights were spent cramming an entire public school education in semester sized chunks at a time. Having a nearly perfect memory made the process quick and relatively painless, leading her to develop a detached personality, as if life were just something to do for the sake of doing.
She found her spark once again several years ago when she discovered the latest (at the time) Digimon TCG. She accrued an almost complete collection of every card, missing only three to this day, but rarely played the game herself. However, the TCG is what brought her into the Digimon fandom, where she thrived and renewed her passion for life. She was among the first people to play Emergence when it was released, spending a lot of her allowance on premium currency that she spent on cosmetic enhancements; none of it was spent on anything that made the game easier or "better" despite that being the main reason players bought the currency.
The latest Digimon TCG took over her life for a short while as well. While she still played Emergence religiously, she spent just as much time and money, if not more, on making her perfect deck. This deck won her a tournament where the reward was a special Emergence Digitama, that of a very rare Digimon as part of a cross-promotion for both games. While the Digimon that would hatch from it was a surprise, it turned out to be one of her favorites.
She believes that every Digimon has value, and treats her Digimon as if they were actually alive, almost like the anime and manga present them, even though she knows it's just a game. She has an entire Farm Island full of insect Digimon that she refuses to touch aside from sending them food when they aren't able to produce enough for themselves. She calls this Island "Quarantine," the only thing stopping her from recycling them is her bleeding heart.

Digimon: Materialization

@Big McLargehuge
Horray! I was afraid I'd overdone it, lol. Safe to move them to the char tab?

Digimon: Materialization

Took a little bit of liberty with the setting and such, so please let me know if I overstepped or did anything wrong.

Sum up your week in roleplaying in just 3 words

Finally, more digimon.

Digimon: Materialization Interest Check

@TheNoCoKid
I think the idea is that people play on their phones, and the two who are in the rumor give out the two types of actual digivices?

Digimon: Materialization Interest Check

@TheNoCoKid
To expand on this, maybe a summon system? You can summon out a digimon from a farm for a single attack, then need it to recharge both the ability to summon and, for a longer period of time, that digimon in particular's ability to be summoned. DiM cards would then let you do this with digimon you don't actually have on an island and with more regularity, less time to recharge the ability itself and somewhat faster recharge for the DiM than for the digimon on the farm. Maybe a special combo attack if you have two compatible digimon on the farm or on the farm and a DiM card? Doubles or triples the summon recharge, but is exceptionally powerful. Maybe another benefit of the VB digivice is the ability to use a combo attack with two digimon on the farm AND a DiM card, for an extreme attack once a day or less, giving tons of variety to manage against the combo attack of a SP that boosts the combo attack's damage anyway.

Though saving the previous stages on the digivice seems counter-intuitive in terms of an actual game based on digimon that's similar to Pokemon GO, since it disincentivizes players to get multiple of the same digimon, thus spending more time and/or money on the game.

@Big McLargehuge
I have another question that I forgot to ask: How much digimon media exists IC, and how does it differ from IRL digimon media? Obviously D:E is different, but do the anime and/or manga exist, or the video games, or the card games?

Digimon: Materialization Interest Check

@Big McLargehuge
Sure, just need some ideas of what you need help with and I'd be down for helping.

Digimon: Materialization Interest Check

@Big McLargehuge
All that sounds perfect~

Though I'm assuming the collected data makes a random egg instead of an egg of the digimon the data is from? Or is it basically scan data from the Story games?

Also, are there any banned digimon to start with? Obviously stage locked, but for example (I don't plan to use these but it's an OP combo) Zubamon and Ludomon? Or what about duplicates like two Salamons? Is Jogress even going to be a function, and what about the Digimentals/DigiArmor "Eggs"? Are they rare drops, one of a kind, or not a thing?

Sorry to ask so many questions, I just want as good an idea of the IC D:E game as possible to prepare off of.

Digimon: Materialization Interest Check

Yeah, this sounds great.

As for questions, could you expand on the Emergence game and what that involves? I assume it's somewhat similar to Pokemon GO, but what's the gameplay like? How many digimon are there for each tamer? Do you raise your digimon like a VPet/Re:Digitize/Next Order, or do you just fight them like a digivice toy? If the players of the game get multiple digimon, are there Farm Islands?

What's the rule on digivolution routes? Is it restricted to exclusively shown in canon routes, or can a possible but never shown in canon route be used?

Digimon: Materialization Interest Check

I'll read through this as soon as I can, (tomorrow) but since it's digimon, I'll throw in interest blindly lol.
