Alolan Pokemon Academy

@Tojin carrying a 3 foot tall, 60 pound bug on your shoulders all day must be some sort of strength training.

@Joshua Tamashii

...Hm. I seem to have underestimated how large Larvesta are. Thanks for catching that.

Alolan Pokemon Academy

I've got my sheet about 90% done! Just have to finish the bio and I'm all set!

Allie

Name: Allie Teosinte.
Age: 15
Home Region/Town: Nimbasa City, Unova.

General Description and/or photo:

Allie, of course, wears more modern clothes than in the picture. Most of the time she can be seen in jeans and a t-shirt, though sometimes she'll bust out a sundress if the weather calls for it. Which, this being Alola, it almost always does.

Bio: Allie's family is originally from Orre, but her parents migrated to Unova following the whole Cipher debacle. Fortunately, Allie's mother's experience as a trainer allowed her to land a job as a gym trainer at the Nimbasa gym. It didn’t earn them a ton of money, but combined with her dad’s job as a janitor in Big Stadium, it was enough to make ends meet.

Allie was always the kind of person who, when presented with a marsh and told to have fun, would gleefully put on some rainboots and go hunting for weird animals. Most of her time was spent in the woods just outside of Nimbasa, which her family's apartment bordered. Allie would happily explore around, looking in burrows and climbing trees, and always coming home with skinned knees, covered in dirt, and wearing a humongous grin. Unfortunately, not many of the other kids shared her love for the outdoors, and while Allie didn't have very much trouble making friends, she often traveled the woods alone. As a result of her ramblings, Allie has always loved Pokemon. They are, in her words, "Super cool!!" However, Bug-types are her favorites by far. Which is why, when Allie's parents gave her a baby Larvesta for her birthday, she was practically bouncing off the walls in excitement. The two of them quickly became fast friends, and Allie finally had someone to show the forest to.

Unfortunately, soon after that, Allie's father, Eugenio, was laid off from his job, and without that supplemental income, Allie's family couldn't afford their rent. However, at almost exactly the same time, a relative of his, a rich great-aunt he had barely even met, died. She also happened to leave a substantial sum of money to Allie's family, as well as her Alolan villa in Hau'oli City! The three (four, if you count Rosetta) of them didn't waste any time in moving to the island region, and while Allie was sad to leave her beloved woods behind, she was also excited by the chance to explore a completely new environment.

With their newfound riches, the Teosintes were able to enroll Allie in the Pokemon Academy. Her mom, Dorotea, was able to parley her battle experience (and her intimidating Electabuzz) into working as a security guard for Hau'oli Mall, and Mr. Teosinte and his Haunter are sticking to what they know best: cooking. As for Allie, she hopes to become a Pokemon professor herself one day, studying Pokemon habitats and conservation. And if that doesn't work out, maybe Trail Captain will.

Team:

• Larvesta - Allie's first Pokemon, and the best friend she's ever had. Nicknamed Rosetta. Intensely dislikes Pokeballs, and therefore walks next to Allie most of the time. Very cuddly, and often will curl up on top of Allie while she's sleeping, like a cat might. Moves: Ember, String Shot, Absorb.
• A-Grimer - Caught skulking around the backyard of the Teosintes' new home in Hau'oli City literally moments after they moved in, Allie's Alolan Grimer, nicknamed Trine, has grown to be a steadfast partner. She's still not allowed to let him out in the house though, on account of the smell. Very friendly, but sometimes forgets that having a pile of animate sludge launch itself at you isn't a fun prospect for most people. (Allie is not most people.) Moves: Poison Gas, Harden, Bite, Disable.
• Dhelmise - A very strange choice of Pokemon for a beginning trainer, and a rare Pokemon to see in general, Allie nonetheless has managed to get herself a Dhelmise, who she named Sentinel. Allie maintains that she found it lying on the beach, but as Dhelmise have never really been known to leave the deep ocean, why Sentinel was there in the first place is a question for the ages. Weaker in terms of level than the rest of Allie's Pokemon, but makes up for it with a stellar Attack stat. They're not very friendly, in contrast to Allie's other Pokemon, and has a bit of an independent streak. Moves: Absorb, Astonish, Growth, Switcheroo.

Alolan Pokemon Academy

I'm thinking Abra, Alolan Grimer, and Larvesta. The first two because they're found around Hau'oli City, and Larvesta for some variety (and because it's really cute).

Alolan Pokemon Academy

I'm up for this! By the way, which city is the Academy near, exactly?

As the fighting died down, Tiferet lowered her fiddle, adrenaline making her breathe heavily. At first, she just focused on getting her breath back and checking herself for injuries. Fortunately, she didn't have any serious ones; she had been solidly in the middle of the group, wishing that she could play her fiddle to pass the time without it attracting monsters. Of course, at that point, monsters had appeared. They hadn't walked around a corner or anything, though; they had come from the floor. Only a combination of quick thinking and being near Graves had saved her from becoming mincemeat, and after that point she had stayed as far away as she could while still making sure everyone was within range of her buffs. Tiferet grimaced as she found a small wound in her side. Seemed like one of those little goblin shits on the balcony managed to nick her. Oh well, it wasn't anything debilitating. As she looked up from her injury, she overheard Rael's comment about "passive magics", and a smirk crossed her face.

"Yeah, or maybe we're all trapped in Pariah now, doomed to become ghosts eternally haunting the system!"

For the latter half of her little joke, Tiferet put on a voice like she was telling a ghost story around a campfire, and waggled her fingers in the air. She laughed a bit at her own joke, then continued a bit more seriously.

"Maybe it's some kinda special Halloween event? Jumpscares and a bit of real pain sounds like the sort of thing they might pull."

She stretched (and winced a bit; that damn cut was in exactly the wrong place) and continued, "I hope they keep the whole 'enemies are smarter' thing, though. Makes things less formulaic, y'know? Ha, and maybe they'll add an afterlife to it as well. That'd sure be something."

With that, Tiferet turned to follow Graves down the tunnel, humming quietly to herself. (She'd play her fiddle normally, but she figured it might attract more monsters. Besides, Graves didn't seem like the kind of guy to appreciate a nice song, unless it was helping him fight.)

Dishonored: Song Of The Void

Nice. I might not have anything up until the weekend, though. College has to come first, after all (unfortunately).

Dishonored: Song Of The Void

Um, yes??? I'm super interested in this. Hopefully it'll help fill in the Dishonored-shaped hole in my heart until I can afford DoTO. :p

The Duel Tower: The first year students. (A Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Academy Roleplay.) [Axed]

Honestly, keeping an RP running for as long as you did, especially a Yugioh RP, is quite the accomplishment. Plus, I have you to thank for introducing me to RPGuild. So thanks for everything. :)

_PROJECT: P.H.O.B.I.A._

I can try to get a post up, but if that doesn't work then yes please.
