I'm submitting a character for the Suicune Dorm.

Name: Rory Blake Johnson

Nickname: N/A

Age: 14

Gender: Male

Dorm: Suicune

Appearance:

mod_article1987721_1.jpg


Additional Info:

Build: Tall, Medium built (not skinny, not fat, not ripped but in the middle)
Hair: Hairstyle is different than in the picture, Rory's is short and well-kempt.

Personality:

Rory is very ego-tistic, believing that he is better than the rest. Rory shares no compassion or empathy for others, and is only concerned about himself and what is happening to him at the current moment. Rory is the very definition of stuck-up, and expects everything to go his way, and due to a sheltered life it usually has gone his way. Rory tends to get angry in the situations where things do not go his way, and has quite a short fuse. Rory prefers that everything is done his way, and that others below him have no say. On the other hand, Rory is very intelligent and tactical, possessing the intellect to sucessfully become an elite Pokemon Trainer, which is his goal, yet he needs to overcome his attitude to achieve his goal. Rory is quiet kind and friendly to those he sees as "equivalent" or near to it. Rory is a talented musician, and writes music of all kinds in his spare time, from classical music on the cello, to hip-hop. Rory is quite gentelmanly, and preserves a high code of ethical conduct at all times, however he is only courteous to those on his level.

History:

Rory Blake Johnson was born to two rich business people, who owned most of the Poke-marts in Hoenn. To be specific, Rory Blake Johnson was born in Mauville City, Hoenn. Rory has two older brothers, named Alexander and Griffin. Since one of those two were likely going to inherit the business Empire, Rory adapted a interest of Pokemon Training at a young age, mainly from hearing exploits of famous trainers all around the world. Rory was sheltered for most of his school life, being put into fancy private schools his whole life, which suited Rory, as he maintained his sense of self-importance. Rory excelled in school, maintaining one-hundred percent marks all through school, and showed skills with Pokemon. Rory had earned the attention of his parents, who wanted to assure that Rory would have the best of everything when training Pokemon, especially rare Pokemon. Rory kept his studies up, as well as his interest in Pokemon up, and his parents rewarded Rory with a Dratini when he was ten years old. Rory's parents used the Dratini to take Rory's attention off of the business Empire that his brothers were supposed to inherit, as well as keep Rory occupied. The Pokemon suceeded, as Rory had expert advice from Professor Oak himself. Although Oak was paid to do it, Oak grew to sense the potential, as well as skill, that Rory possessed as a Trainer. With the permission of Rory's parents, Rory left home to train with Oak some more. Rory began to truly express his power as a trainer, and when he hit fourteen, Rory took the entrance exam to the Pokemon Trainer Academy, which was run by Oak. Rory passed both tests with flying (carpets) colours, Rory was accepted into the Pokemon Trainer Academy, and placed in the Suicune Dorm.

Pokémon:

Species: Dratini

@westsideconnection: Congratulations your new character is accepted!~

@gunnerpow7: Yes, however if the dorm of your first character changes you need to re-select which of your characters takes up a spot on the Available Spots list.

@Red: I used to, however the updates are so frequent and editing posts on PC so intensely painful due to lag that I'm at a loss as to how to deal with them right now. Or at least, I haven't yet found a good solution other than attempting to get back on top of it again.

I heavily recommend you keep track of your character's levels independently regardless though. ^^;

Hm... I'll have to do that somewhere, then. Perhaps in the little useful notepad box in the UCP.

I just had the idea to use an etherpad or something of the like, which would allow people to edit their team levels without even needing me to personally approve each one.

ATTENTION: So I went ahead and did that. We now have an etherpad, which means we /also/ have a /chatroom/! Please go here to update your teams in the future. http://openetherpad.org/3QhdS8mBbY (If you don't know what an etherpad is, it's sort of like google docs, only anyone can edit it.) I'll be checking the etherpad daily and making backups frequently just on the off chance that someone accidentally deletes stuff or something.

The chatroom is located on the right side of the etherpad page, and we can use that for stuff perhaps a bit too off-topic for the OOC thread, or whatever's convenient. ^^ Keeping in mind that the OOC thread still needs to be used for stuff because the chatroom only works if the people you want to talk to happen to be on it. *Goes to edit the first post*

:< That's not gonna work out for me. I use my phone all the time to get on PC. I tried getting on the etherpad & trying to chat there, but it won't work out for me. I'm still gonna update my team here since I can't do it in the etherpad.

That's pretty cool. I'm going to try and use it. But not right now. My whole point of this post is that I need to go out of town for a few days and won't be able to post until I get back on friday.

Guys, this thread is for discussing PTA, not videos. Right? ^^' Even though I admit it was AWESOME as you might guess from what I keep in my sig.

I wonder what would happen if some student found out about another student being with Team Rocket...
