My reason for why I haven't posted either.

[Fuyu]

*runs in from school* HI!

I figured that was the situation. I have suggestions for you all!

Harbingers, this intro post is a good way to talk about your departure from home and your dreams that led you to this decision. You don't have to be specific about these events, even mentioning the fact that you have them is enough. Just start your journey off! Maybe you have an early encounter with an organization. If not, you have plenty of time.

For the RDM and the Knights, you have a similar idea of where to go. You could possibly talk about a normal day of your goings on. Or perhaps you could receive new orders from your "higher ups". Or even you could catch a glimpse of a human, a human where something is just "not right" with them. Even further, you could have a mission and gather some troops, maybe to hunt an influential human. Whatever you choose to do, make it flashy if you desire!

[Fuyu]

Oops I ninjaed you roen. XD

If my post up there doesn't help matters, I'll be making an intro post over the next period of time so... yay!

[roen52]

Helpful ninjas are fine honestly. You a helpful ninja.

[Mr. Mammoth]

Another question! It may seem a bit pointless, but it kinda has a lot to do with my post. What season is it in the RP currently? Can we make it any season we damn well please?

[Fuyu]

Hmm... at the moment I would say it is Spring.

Duly noted.

Then I shall begin working on my first post!

[Nideous]

Sorry about not getting an intro post for you guys. My week has been crazy. But excellent first posts you all, keep it up!

[aspie3000]

This is my SU, I'll post tomorrow in the event that I get accepted because I've got to play some Halo with my dad before I go to bed.

Name: Cailin McAlister

Age: 16

Gender: Male

Appearance: Cailin stands at five foot ten, and has a slender athletic frame. His skin is medium between milky white and rosy just being a none rosy white color. His hair is midlength and dirty blond with a golden undertone. His face is handsome and delicate and always in a pleasant expression except to his victims which see his true face behind the mask. His eyes are a clue to the madness that lurks within looking like that of a bird of preys. Like a lot of teenagers he has acne on his face but not enough to look unattractive. His eyes are a greyish blue and his lips are thin. He also has pretty long arms and legs but not enough to be abnormal.

Personality: Cailin is either a very disturbed human being or a paragon of virtue depending on who you ask. He respects his elders, he doesn’t do drugs or alcohol, and is still a proud virgin. He is also a practicing Catholic that rarely ever has to go to the confessional. In an RPG he’d be lawful good or so he’d think. Cailin as I said earlier is a deeply disturbed human being. Cailin is a very judgmental moral perfectionist who also happens to be a sadist. Ever since he got his powers to see into the hearts of people and separate the wheat from the chaff so to speak he’s acted upon his sadistic impulses with great prejudice. Many sex offenders, adulterers, wife beaters, and just all around jerks have been found washed up in the ocean seemingly killed by a Pokémon. The deaths have been blamed on the rebel Pokémon starting a bunch of violent riots by the local KKK. Cailin also is kind of a jerk to his enemies denigrating them with his lightning wit.

If you were to meet Cailin yourself however, you wouldn't see the monster inside the man. He is very smart, and learned about many things. He is witty and very good with women, and is quite the charmer to most people. He's developed this personality to hide what lurks behind his mask, and will lie, cheat, and steal to get what he wants if he believes it justified. In the end, he does what he believes is right, or what he justifies to himself as right. His morality as it stands is a mix of Christian morals with a needs of the many over the needs of the few outlook. Given the choice of saving one hundred people or saving ninety nine he'd save the one hundred because it would save one more life. This extends to killing of course as he believes that those he kills are a cancer on the world and need to die to save it.

Background: Cailin was born to wealth and splender in a rich neighborhood in Charleston South Carolina. His mother and father were staunch Catholics and taught Cailin to be the same. Growing up Cailin was hated by everyone around him because he was different, because he’d scold the children for their misdeeds, and because he could talk trash back to the people who picked on him. Unfortunately for him, he couldn’t fight back and he got his butt kicked often. As he grew up ostracized and hated by everyone around him including his own verbally abusive father he prayed to God and the Virgin Mary to help him out.

One day when he was in the market in downtown Charleston he purchased this reddish plate that seemed to be calling to him. As he took a shortcut through the alley to get to his house he was attacked by three bullies. Then the plate awoke the power inside of him and he killed the three bullies with a blast of energy. Seeing what he did, he immediately ran home and tried to process what had just happened. After days had passed and the news was reported no evidence was found against him and the killing was blamed on the Pokemon rebels. Cailin had just got away with murder and liked it. Soon, he began seeing good and evil in the hearts of the people around him. That’s when the killing spree began. Many died from this supposed Pokemon serial killer that was let loose upon the world including Cailin’s own father. People noticed that he cried no tears during his funeral.

Legend: Arceus

Powers: Cailin's default powers are energy based. He can generate white energy and manipulate it in any way he pleases being able to make energy daggers, shields, and chains and well as blasting opponents dead with it. These powers change when he taps into the powers of the Arceus plates . For instance, if he uses the dragon plate he would take on the features of a dragon (scales, fangs, claws) and would fire dragon type energy. If he uses the fire plate the energy becomes fire and he becomes a burning man and so on and so forth. Using these powers too much gives him an alcoholic hangover type reaction, and he has to simmer down in order to use them again without pain. He is also addicted to the plates and the power they give him like a drug. His last power is to see into the hearts of people and tell if they are mostly good or evil. He never leaves evidence at the scene of his murders and people seem to remember him being elsewhere at the time of the crime.

Pokémon

Nickname: Drac

Species: Deino

Level: 15

Moves: Dark Pulse, Dragon Rage, Thunder Wave, Headbutt

Personality: Drac is an unrelenting badarse. He was bred to fight in Pokemon death matches by a local crime lord and after words would devour the young Pokemon that it killed. He likes to eat, and his favorite food is human flesh. His demeanor and personality are tough as nails and gravelly. He only warms up to Cailin, and pretty much growls and fights everything else. He doesn’t like Cailin’s goody two shoes attitude when it comes to everything but killing.

Background: He was originally bred by Pokemon fighter (Pokémon fighting is an illegal form of a Pokemon battle where the Pokemon are placed in death matches) who was a major crime lord in Charleston. He was undefeated in the ring and rose to level twelve during his fights. He enjoyed the fights because at the end of them he’d get a tasty meal afterwards. Then Cailin came an killed the crime lord in his home and found Deino all caged up. When Cailin tried to communicate with the Deino it just said, “hungry… so hungry.” Cailin tried to feed it some roast beef he found in the refrigerator but Deino said that he wanted flesh. Cailin shrugged, let him out and let him eat his former master until there was nothing left. Deino wanted to come with Cailin and Cailin accepted. He had always wanted a Pokemon and his father thought they were evil. Cailin named the Deino Drac after the half dragons in French lore and became a good battler with him letting his sadistic tendencies take over.

[Greiger]

Sorry for not getting my post up quickly guys. Tests and all are wracking my brain and draining my creative mind. I'll get my intro post in this weekend.

[Claire*]

Just a heads up, I'm out of town for the next three days. I may be unreachable, so I just wanted to give everyone an update on my status and know that I haven't died. Unless of course I do in the next three days...we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.

[Fuyu]

No problem Greiger. And thanks for letting us know Claire

[DeLaMuerte]

For future reference, can we battle the gym leaders in any particular order? Seeing as the next post I make might be right before my OC begins traveling to fight the gyms (maybe one or two), it would be mostly for the sake of story-line and post foresight. If it's a "you'll know when we get there" kind of thing, then it's fine and I'll just wait until you feel it's necessary to say. If not, however, then it would preferable that I know before hand so that I can try to plan out subsequent posts beyond the next one (Of course, something always ends up happening anyway, but that's beyond the point).

Beyond that, however, I'll just try keeping up the posts on the IC (next one might come this weekend)!

[Fuyu]

Since we're all in different sections of Pangaea, I'd say go in whatever order you feel works for you.

[DeLaMuerte]

Alright. I'll see to it, then!

[Fuyu]

Okay no problem! By the way guys there is no set post order nor (unless you're interacting) do you have to wait for anyone. Just post at your leisure guys.

[Greiger]

Unfortunately my muse and I are not on great terms right now, which makes writing a post for this rp that much harder. For now, I would like to have my character taken out. Maybe sometime in the future I can rejoin, but for now I have to say goodbye. I hope you all have a fun time with this!

[Fuyu]

Aw okay Greiger I understand. Thanks for being interested.

[Icy Burn]

Being the only guy in the Knight thing, I don't really know how to start up ... c:

If that above doesn't help, maybe talk about a recent mission or a training session. Or even overhear about some special humans influencing Pokemon in some way according to other soldier and decide to investigate. Maybe you could try to form an alliance with an RDM agent (RPer or NPC) Do those help?

[Nideous]

Sorry Ihaven't been around here too much. I've been really busy. Also, if you have trouble with being a Knight I have a very interesting NPC that you could interact with should you choose to, or any of the options Fuyu mentioned.

[Garet]

So, it's Thanksgiving time. I'll be gone from Wednesday morning to Monday at the latest, so I'll very likely not be able to check in during that time. It's possible that I could check in before Monday, but I doubt it.

[Icy Burn]

I posted mine, hope it's alright.

[Claire*]

I'll try and get another post up soon. I apologize if I haven't kept up my usual rate of posting on this one. Just have had some writer's block as of late. :\

Just for the future, would anybody like to have some interaction with my character moving forward?

I would normally love to, but, erm... I kind of seem to be headed to interaction with Garet's character anyway. However, I wouldn't mind in the future.

Hey Nideous, I recall you posted the gym leaders. As I seem to be in a upcoming confrontation with one anyway, do I come up with their team based on the team used in the game or do you (or Fuyu) want to specify a gym? Also, I don't expect to be posting with the same frequency as I am right now. Not writers block, but I feel I'm neglecting the other RP I'm in a bit, and that's not a good thing.
