Name - Koji Murasaki

Age - 17

Gender - Male

Appearance - Koji is tall and lanky, with long black hair that covers his ears and neck mostly and hangs in his face, but not in front of his silver-blue eyes. His eyes convey emotion easily, and it's easy to understand what he's feeling by looking at them. His face is smooth with no scars or pimples, with a thin jawline and a small but pointy nose. Always in a crimson leather jacket, Koji usually wears blue jeans and sneakers, with a black T-shirt covered in abstract designs. More people notice his appearance than personality, since he looks at first glance to be darker than most people.

History - Born in Canalave City, Koji led a normal life, though he was one of the "Rich kids" until his father's company collapsed with the economy eight years ago, and they were forced to move into the projects to live. Koji could no longer live a life of luxury, and his parents took him out of one of the most prestigious private schools in Sinnoh and enrolled him in public school. Living in the projects taught Koji survival, since violence and drugs were common there, and Koji witnessed several shootings and assaults. The whole experience shocked him and proved too much, hardening his personality. Although he tried avoiding fights, he couldn't forever, and at the age of 13, he was beaten up by a thug and spent the rest of the year recovering. People treated him as a hero, which he at first disliked, but eventually everyone forgot about him and he realised he missed all the attention.

Always weak to illness, it wasn't a surprise when Koji was determined infected on his 17th birthday, and his long-poor family couldn't afford to pay for any kind of treatment. So when Professor Helix began to search for volunteers for his Merging project, Koji was among the first to sign up. At first, he struggled with the idea of being merged with a Pokemon, but the fact that it meant life or death to him won out, and he prepared to merge with Yuan, a Tentacruel he'd befriended that was also suffering from the infection.

Personality - Quiet, observing, and calm, Koji dislikes and distrusts all people, thanks to living in the projects and being overexposed to violence, drugs, and gangs, but watches them from a distance instead to form a real opinion on them. As a result, he has almost no friends and usually doesn't talk, instead hanging around watching the world around him. When he meets someone he's compatible with, though (fortunately, he's compatible with many people), he rattles off words in his soft voice to the point that would make some people's heads explode. Koji is smart and loves animals, especially Pokemon, but in his opinion, humanity is far superior to the others, and dreads the idea of being merged with a Pokemon.

As mentioned above, Koji can get along with most people, but feels uncomfortable in crowds of more than about two people because he has an extremely low opinion of himself - again, thanks to life in the projects, but more than that. He feels annoyed with himself because his family used to be wealthy, but after years of insecurity and low self-esteem, he feels annoyed with himself for little or no reason, and his insecurity and low self-esteem have become natural to him.

Short RP Sample -

Spoiler:

Taken from Bloodlust: Strife

Asmodaeus knelt over the ridge, gazing down at the village of demons beneath him. All would make good killings, but there was no need to advertise that he had returned to Zaldanar... yet. With his life the price to pay, should anyone escape, it would be foolish to use the village just to satisfy his bloodlust.

Instead, Asmodaeus retreated from the ridge, standing up and looking up at the fiery sky above him. Turning and walking away, he allowed himself a smile. The clouds in the sky looked like explosions, the sky itself trapped in eternal sunset, and the whole sight was something, Asmodaeus and others would agree, everyone had to see before dying. Peeling his eyes away from the sky, he scanned the landscape in front of him to find a path he knew well. Many times, he had fled into the night here, where two rocky bluffs, each with a dead, twisted tree atop them, indicated a trail through a dead forest. Of course, the demons who created this trail had fiendishly cut forks in the road to confuse anyone who may try to escape justice through it. Once, though, the army had marched through the trail to capture an enemy warlord, with Asmodaeus in the rows of demon soldiers. As a result, he could follow the trail without getting lost. At the other end, Asmodaeus would emerge at the Black Castle, where hopefully the King would listen to him and even supply him with a job.

But something stopped him. His pace hadn't been fast, but now it stopped altogether as he stared at the trees in the forest. Normally, the trees would be dead, bare, twisted, and dark. Now, though, they were green with leaves, tall, and as if they were from the Anemos Continent. Confused, Asmodaeus ran his finger along the trunk of one of the trees, and rather than rough, brittle, and abrasive, it felt smooth and firm. Shrugging, he tried to ignore the abnormality of the trees, but they kept returning to his mind. Have angels been here, 'purifying' this forest? he thought, mildly concerned. If they had, it might be a bad omen of the future.

His thoughts were cut off as he heard a rustling noise from deeper in the forest, somewhere off the trail. A voice growled "What's your beef, pal?" and heavy footsteps followed shortly after. Asmodaeus followed the direction of the sound, in time to see a dragon, an arrow in his shoulder, headbutting an elf. The elf, with its low pain threshold, collapsed and died, and the dragon cleansed his wound. Asmodaeus stepped forward. "Not bad, but an elf is easy prey for anyone. Even a fresh assassin can kill one of them. But who are you and what's a dragon doing here?"

POKEMON

Species - Tentacruel

Name - Yuan

Gender - Male

Age - 18

Appearance - Yuan loves to pose, with his tentacle "arms" often seen folded, and has a much darker colour of blue pigment than most Tentacruel. He has only a few tentacles left apart from his "arms" because of an injury years ago.

Biography - Like Koji, Yuan is insecure and has a low self-esteem, but unlike Koji, he seems to love crowds and the company of people or other Pokemon. He led a simple life, watching the ships go by in the port of Canalave, but one day was hit by a ship, losing many of his tentacles, and was left weak. He washed up on the beach, and Koji, fifteen at the time, happened to be at the beach that evening, watching the ships just like Yuan had done, and noticed the Tentacruel near death on the sand. Koji's love of animals kicked in, and he treated Yuan's wounds to the best of his ability, leaving Yuan with a positive impression of him.

The two would meet again, and eventually Koji came to regard Yuan as a friend, comforting him since he was lonely and without friends. Unfortunately, Koji never made Yuan his partner, never battled with him, and never learned what he was capable of, so after merging, Koji will have to learn the hard way.

HUMAN

Name: Avery Ann Coleman

Age: 15

Gender: Female

Appearance: Avery is a red-head, but not just your average orange haired red head. Streaking through her long hair are mixtures of dark red and light blue. Her hair is generally worn in pompom style, but can also be put into several different forms, such as two buns or two braids. When up, her hair is always in a style that involves two ponytails, mainly because she believes that two is her lucky number. It is a very rare occasion for her hair to come out of her ponytails unless sleeping. Her eyes reflect more of a hazel coloring, but do tend to seem more like a regular brown during the daylight hours. Over her eyes she generally wears a pair of green glasses, due to the fact that her vision isn't all too great at seeing from a distance. Her skin is more of a lighter tone, reflecting that of a peach, with brown freckles dotted across her nose and cheeks. Avery's height averages around 5'4'', and her weight reflects the normal numbers for a girl of her height.

In the aspect of clothing, she is known for wearing tank tops that very in color, usually pink or blue. Though she has a tendency to wear a light blue denim jacket, unbuttoned. As for bottoms, she prefers to wear dark blue denim shorts. Attached to her jacket is a light purple flower pendant, which is always seen on her. Around her neck, she wears a small key, which she is often found fondling with. She also has a purple satchel, which mainly just contains items used for artistic means, and of course, her glasses case. She also keeps a wrist watch handy, though it's hardly ever actually attached to her wrist. Avery is also known to not wear shoes of any kind.

History: For most of her life, Avery lived in the Johto Region, along with her older brother's Cameron and Zander. She didn't live in one exact location, as her brothers had to move around constantly, as they were both Rangers, important ones in this region. Being a Ranger was something that ran in her family. Though her Mother was a nurse at the local Pokemon Center in her hometown, Violet City, her Father, and most of the males on his side, were registered as Pokemon Rangers. So this influenced her brothers to become Rangers as well. Avery would also like to join in as a Ranger, but has not yet had the time to settle down and stay in one place for training, as her two brothers are the only family she has.

Her Mother died many years ago, when she was still relatively young. Her age had probably been about five, as not many memories of her Mother remained in her brain of times after that age. Her Mother had, had all three children in short distances away from each other. Cameron was the oldest of the three, being nineteen. Zander came second in line, at the age of seventeen. Of course, Avery was the youngest, being only fifteen. Each of them had a two year age gap, oddly enough. Avery has always been jealous of her brothers, because they both had fonder, longer memories of their Mother, yet Avery had very few. Half of the memories she had were her Mother visiting her at night, singing and reading to her. The other half were images of her parents fighting, something they did often. She only wished she could remember more...fonder times.

Her Father left on a Ranger mission around a year ago. He had more or less been retired since their Mother had died, considering he didn't want to leave Avery on her own, knowing all she had were her brothers. For a while, he did not believe that her brothers were mature enough protect her, and he treated her as if she were a child. She assumed that was because she was the youngest, she was the child. Though she had always wished her would maybe see her as the person she is, not the age that covers it all up. She has plenty of fond memories of her Father, as he seemed to mellow out after her Mother passed. She still holds the horribly memories of her parents fights, but she prefers not to dwell on them. They were informed three months ago, that he had died on this mission.

When Avery was around ten, she received a Vulpix after rescuing it from a swarm of Beedrill. It was this rescue that made her want to join as a Ranger, which would make her the only current female in her family to join. At first, the Vulpix despised her, though it could have just been a natural hate for humans in the first place, as the Pokemon was abused from the beginning of its birth. After a few years, Avery managed to slowly get the Vulpix to trust her, even occasionally enough to help out her brothers on missions. This, of course, got her brothers in a small deal of trouble for a while, as having a younger, unauthorized person put in the danger zone was against their code. Yet now, they encourage her help, as long as the mission calls for it. As of more recently, as in within the past year, the Vulpix evolved into a Ninetails, who is now loyal to Avery, fighting for her, but it still very resentful, and doesn't show its affection.

Personality: It could be said that Avery is a tad bit of a push over. According to those around her, she is way too nice for her own good. Others say she needs to learn to stand up for herself, a feature she has not quite mastered as of yet. She often cares more for others than for herself, and she is generally kind to most of those around her. If she does manage to dislike someone, it is not something she would outright say. She would more imply it with her actions, expressions, and body language when addressing, or on the topic of that specific person.

Avery does have that tendency to be a bit obsessive and possessive. She usually obsesses over certain activities, or commitments she may have made. This is good in the fact that it keeps her from wandering off track, and it helps her to stay true to her word. As for her possessive nature, this usually revolves around things that she feels she is close to, things she holds dear to her heart, such as her Ninetails. Her possessiveness does have its downside. If someone were to truly spark her interest, there is a high chance that she will want to know more about that person. If enough interesting information is provided, it is quite possible for her to become obsessed with that person. Due to this, others would always identify her as "Stalker". She will become obsessed with someone, and then her possessive nature will take over, usually causing her to do rather dumb things as so protect the object of her obsession. Though in history, she has really only had one human obsession, which resulted in her leaving school, convincing her brothers to allow her to travel with them.

It is sometimes hard for her to tell the difference between her 'obsessions' and her 'feelings'. This is part of the reason why she didn't have many friends growing up, despite how kind she was to others. Other kids knew of her obsessive behavior, and thus those around her don't want to get close to her, afraid of how she might act. Most people believe that it is impossible for her to have any real friends, because some claim that she doesn't even possess the ability to hold the form of emotions that allow her to truly care for someone. And Avery often finds herself believe these statements.

Short RP Sample: (Taken from My Pokemon Ranch: The Underdogs; only part of the post.)





POKEMON

Species: Ninetales

Name: Vee (she was given the name she was still a Vulpix)

Gender: Female

Age: 17

Appearance: Vee is generally a normal looking Ninetales. Her fur is still a golden-white color, but at the tip of each of her nine tails, where the fur should be orange, it is actually a darker red in coloring. The fluffy crest on top of her head is also the same dark red color.

Biography: Vee was captured by a trainer when she was still too small to quite know what was going on. She was used originally as a way to strengthen her trainer's grass type Pokemon, teaching them resistance to their natural enemy in the type chart. She often won a lot against the others, making her feel like she was so much better. She was never used against any other type of Pokemon, so she was unaware of her weaknesses. So when her trainer went to a new region, and decided to train an entire team of fire Pokemon, she found she while she was stronger than these new Pokemon, they put up more of a challenge. Then came the time when he trainer captured a water, using it the same way they had used her. When this occurred, she found that she was often losing, and when she was unable to successfully defeat the water Pokemon, her trainer just dropped her off in the woods on her own.

This caused Vee's instant dislike to humans. She found that all they did was use their Pokemon for their own personal purposes, and dump them when they were no longer needed. So because of the way she was treated, she resented humans. She has always preferred to do things on her own, since all her winning gave her a big ego. This was also because she found company bothersome, and most others around her were either humans, or Pokemon who liked them.

During her time in the forest, Vee made quite a few enemies. Most of the Pokemon weren't fond of her human-hating-know-it-all attitude. So it wasn't uncommon for her to fight against the Pokemon of the forest, and due to type advantage, she usually won. Though, she did learn which Pokemon to avoid, such as the ones that were ten times her size, ones she knew could obviously squish her.

She learned from an early age to fight for herself. Her trainer only kept her six years, leaving her alone in the forest for another six years. Though, which ever place she was, she was always being pitted against other Pokemon. So she always knew that life was more of a game of survival, and she believes that being weak isn't going to get anyone anywhere. If they are unable to defend themselves, she believes that they should be taken down, and that they should just stay out of everybody's way.

Vee was found, deeply injured, after she had been attacked by a swarm of Beedrill. She had gotten into a fight with some baby Weedle, due to an accident by the small Pokemon while playing a game. She attacked them, angry by the fact that they could not control their own attacks. Of course, after attacking the poor babies, their parents awoke to find them in injured states, with Vee the only other Pokemon around. Not that she was shy to admit she did it. She wanted the others to know that she was not someone to be messed with. Unfortunately for her, these parents were beyond angry, and there were many of them. She attempted to fight them off, but because of the amount of angry Pokemon, she was unable to defeat them all, and was thus left defenseless.

Avery found her just as the swarm of Beedrill seemed to be ready to send a final attack her way. She had jumped in front of the small Vulpix, allowing the attacks to hit her instead. The Vulpix had found this rather surprising, since the only human she had encountered had never cared the slightest bit about their Pokemon. Still, she acted resentful to Avery, even when the human's brothers returned to take both of them to be treated. Once Vee was well enough to leave the Pokemon Center, she decided to visit the human, just out of curiosity. And somehow, she found herself returning to the human hospital every day, and even came to the point where she slept and stayed in the room, barely ever leaving.

Avery had insisted that the small Pokemon stay with her, even though the Pokemon rarely ever showed any sign that it enjoyed her company. Truthfully, Vee found Avery quite interesting. She liked being by her side, if only to discover why she acted the way she did. This human had no Pokemon, but she witnessed her interaction with wild ones, and she couldn't wrap her mind around this girl's personality. So she stayed with her, even if only to understand her. And Avery appreciated that she had a friend.

Vee then went on several missions along with Avery, helping out weakened Pokemon. This went against all she stood for, but she did it in favor of the human who saved her life. They had gotten much recognition by the Top Rangers, not that this made any difference to Vee, and surprisingly, it didn't to Avery either. Around as year ago, when Avery was once again attacked by a Pokemon gone wild, Vee found herself unable to be of any assistance. Thus, Avery once again ended up in the hospital. It was then that Vee used the Fire Stone that Avery possessed, forcing herself to evolve, so she could protect her partner.

I apologize for how the RP sample looks >_< it does that EVERYTIME I put something in spoilers. :)

@Diamond1304

you're accepted. the last name is awfully long tho :D



since you'll all have 4 days to write your intro chapter, I can start now. INNER ANIMAL STARTS NOW!

So, just to make sure I'm not mistaken here, the first post consists of the characters simply spending time with their Pokemon, correct?

That, and getting to your assigned destination.

I hadn't noticed that an IC was ready with all the information I needed. I shall get a post up for my characters later today or early tomorrow.

Any questions anyone? as this might get a little confusing

So can we start our second chapter posts whenever or do we wait until everyone is finished with their first?

we have to wait for the others to finish. :P

HUMAN

Name - Franklin 'Frank' Campbell

Age - 15

Gender - Male

Appearance - Frank is rather short, and has black eyes. He has dark brown hair, and is a bit on the plump side. He wears dark clothes, mostly navy blue, brown and wears spectacles. He is quite fair, and likes to keep his hair flat. He has a little scar on his nose, caused by the Solidaritians. Due to him being short, he is teased quite a lot, and actually wears boots, and stuffs them to gain the extra inches. He often wears mixes up his shoes, and ends up wearing them wrong. he also wears a locket given to him by his mother.

History- Frank was quite a weak boy when he was born. His parents were actually working for the Solidaritians unknowingly, when they exploited their scientific work. They based their Virus on his parent's work. When they tried to complain, they were captured, and their son was forced to work for them. Franklin was often hit, and abused, in order to obey the Solidaritians, which he had to do, otherwise his parents would be hurt. While he doesn't want to obey the Solidaritians, he is too scared to disobey them too. He loves his parents more than anyone else, and has infected many people to just keep his parent safe.

Personality - Frank is a really careless and gentle boy. He hates violence, and actually doesn't want to work for the Solidaritians. He usually keeps quite, and is quite a timid boy. He also doesn't always think things through, and often misplaces things. He hates what is happening around in the region, and actually opposes it, but is forced to work. Due to his timid nature, he is scared of almost everything, like talking to others, battles, etc. he doesn't talk much, and prefers to stay away from battles. He is not very good at battling, since he is not a good strategist. He loves to make new friends, an develops a bond very quickly.

Short RP Sample (short one will do) - WAR. WAR. WAR.


POKEMON

Species (no legendaries) - Zoroark

Name - Kytes

Gender - Male

Age (10-18) - 14

Appearance - He is shiny, and has quite a few scars on his body due to intense battles with other Pokemon.

Biography- Kytes is the exact opposite of Frank. He is brash, headstrong, violent and is ill tempered. He likes to pick up fights with almost every Pokemon he meets. He doesn't think things through, and always acts first. He is very possessive of people and his things. He hates people getting near or hurting Frank. He is rude, but likes to remain quite mostly. He always stands up for weaker people, which Frank loves about him.

Frank and Kytes had actually met when he had been given to Frank as a starter from the Solidarity. They both at first used to fight quite a lot at first, due to their conflicting personalities, but they soon became friends after some time together. They have bonded well, but still butt heads over fighting, non violence, politeness, etc.


Crap SU, I know. :P Also, I used Rex's personality from Combined Legends, (I hope you're fine with that, SD?) because I liked Rex's character a lot. It'll provide for some funny, and nice conflicting moments after they merge.

You're accepted DeepImpact! Now post something before IA gets on the second page *faints*

Name (First, Last.) -Aaron Kaidus

Age (10-18) -18

Gender - Male

Appearance (one small paragraph) - Aaron is short, very short for his age, standing at a mere 5'6. He is often mistaken to be much younger than he really is. Aaron wears glasses, to go with his neatly combed black hair. He is seen wear a business suit with black slacks and nice shoes, as well as a collared shirt.

History (one paragraph at least) - Not much notability can be said about Aaron's past. He was raised in a normal income family. Nothing highly irregular about them. They had no flaws, and his story is not one of revenge, or sadness, or death. Instead, it is one about parents who really didn't pay much attention to their son. Sure, they treated him nicely, and such, but they mostly tended to their own affairs, giving Aaron plenty of time to himself, and in his spare time, Aaron developed his curiosity for knowledge, and his ambitions for success.

Most of the rest of his life growing up was uneventful, but Aaron observed the downturn of the economy and politics with interest. When the supervirus hit, Aaron calculated that he had to make a choice: fight against this disease, or help spread it. There was no other option in which the odds of survival were highest. His choice was clear. He found in the end that it would be more beneficial, and a higher chance of success and survival if he joined the Solidarity. And so he did.

Personality (one paragraph. Make it as long as History unless History's awfully long. If this personality is good, and the Pokemon personality is evil, you'll have two personalities in different forms, which will be fun) - Despite his small exterior, appearing as a younger boy, Aaron, at 18, is very gifted. He is very well educated, able to pick things up rather easily, whether it involved Pokemon or Mathematics. A well-rounded individual, Aaron is often seen reading if he has any spare time. That being said, he would approach many situations as if they were statistics, even if the situations sometimes involve people. He is cold and calculating in that way, that he would only act or not act if it was more beneficial towards him that not. He wouldn't lift a finger to help someone on the street if he fails to see a benefit by doing so, and wouldn't hesitate to kill if he sees someone as a risk.

Aaron is a bit of a loner. He prefers isolation. However, he wouldn't mind a group if it proves to be more beneficial to him than not. He feels many are beneath him, though, especially in terms of intelligence, and rarely gives others the respect they deserve, unless they prove to him that they deserve it.

Short RP Sample (short one will do) - From: War Between Pokemon and Humans

Hector heard Khufu come over. He was happy to see him alright, but kept his everlasting stone expression on his face.

"Finally, you're back. It's been hard to manage this one, Hector. I'm seriously doubting his motives by now. I accepted a new Medic into the PR, Mandel's his name. He doesn't know much, but I'll let it slide."

Hector nodded at this. He would meet with and figure out Mandel's personality later. Right now, there was a more pressing issue. Rumble got up, only to get hit by a bullet on his arm. Hector and Jun prepared as Rumble examined the bullet.

".50-cal. We need to get going," Hector nodded.

"I'll be fine.. For your information, general, everything I did was for the good of the PR. I never harmed a Pokemon since I joined. Scared some, but that's about it. If you treat your allies like that,", He heard Rumble say. Hector didn't know the full details about what's been going on between Rumble and Khufu, but he would soon find out. Still, he wondered why Khufu didn't take over command, since he was second in command before. It sounded like Rumble was more in charge. They proceeded to move, until Rumble stopped as he saw Jun.

"Hector, who is this?"

Hector spoke now.

"I'll explain everything when we aren't in imminent danger. Don't worry, he's with us. You can trust him."

Hector proceeded with the others outside into the sunlight. He turned back to them as they ran.

"We should make our way to Oreburgh! I hear you guys captured it, correct? We'll be able to speak freely over there."


POKEMON

Species (no legendaries) -Froslass

Name - Angelica Domani

Gender -Female

Age (10-18) -18

Apperance (anything special?) - There is nothing noteworthy about this Froslass in terms of appearance.

Biography (History and Personality in brief. Especially Personality since you're in charge when the merger changes into Pokemon form) - Angelica was a high-spirited Pokemon from the moment she was born. She was adventurous, but also kind to her fellow Pokemon. Her parents admired her compassion dearly, as well as her nerve. She was always one to take risks, even as a little girl.

But she always dreamed of being paired up with an equally kind and generous trainer one day. When she met Aaron, it was like nothing she expected, and refused to be captured by him. But his mechanically cold was were persistent, and she eventually couldn't give in. Overtime, as a Snorunt, she battled alongside Aaron, rather grudgingly at first. She did, however, warm up to him a tad when she realized, that although there were plenty of overlying flaws to his character compared to her, he and she believed in one thing similarly: to never give up, not matter what. To always find a solution, to always overcome and succeed. She finally accepted Aaron fully as her partner.

Aaron never treated her badly, but he also never treated her with any special attention either. This was eventually something she got used to, but still, it was something that got on her nerves. Despite their one overlying factor, they were still far too different. Angelica also never supported his decision to join the Solidarity, but what could she do about it?

Done! Let me know how I did. :)

@Supervegeta

love your character especially the Froslass! :D you're accepted and you may post your intro post now!
