This RP is rated M for Mature Audiences.

​

With the creation of the Real World's Astanoff-Berry Computer, an artificial lifeform known as Yggdrasil, the Master Computer, formed and with it, the foundations to a realm called the Digital World. The artificial entity evolved as the Real World's computer age progressed, giving it the ability to gain knowledge and power with which it used to shape and form the Digital World and eventually the data which would be used for its first inhabitants. The rate at which the World formed was astounding. In an attempt to evolve it further, Yggdrasil subjected it to a time-shift. Days in the new world were mere minutes compared to that of the Real World and by the time the computer age reached what it has today, the Digital World had seemingly finished in its development.

The seventy years of real-time translated to hundreds of thousands of digital cycles. In that time, the Digital World changed in a manner akin to that of Earth. Its continents shifted, its islands and mountains were created and destroyed. Within an even shorter amount of time, Yggdrasil designed and created five realms based upon the cardinal directions of the world and its center. In hopes to give each realm strength and protection, the Sovereigns, a group of five digital lifeforms, were created. From there on, Yggdrasil, with help from the Sovereigns, created enough inhabitants to support the Digital World.

Yggdrasil's influence slowly grew minimal as it watched its new world. Before long, the data of the world began changing on its own and new lifeforms, now known as Digimon, formed without a creator. Yggdrasil knew its work was almost finished, so in its final effort to insure that the world would be successful, it created another race of lifeform whom he simply named the Guardians. These being, human in appearance and seemingly all-knowing, would be the protectors of the world when it was in need.

***​

In 2014, nearly seventy human years later, the Digital World parallels the Real World in many aspects and both are at the height of their prosperity. That is, of course, until something upset the balance. Within a matter of months in the Real World, the world of the Digital Monsters was turned upside down. The Digital World and the Digimon who resided in it quickly began to change, seemingly as if their data was rewritten. Digimon from the Dark Area began to change. Often considered evil by the other Digimon, they started to ally with those of the outer areas. For awhile, the Digital World lived in peace, but even it couldn't last forever. Months later (days in the Real World), things changed once again, and this time, for the worse. Well known Digimon such as the Royal Knights and even the Olympos XII began changing, doing things that were completely opposite of what was expected, just as the Evil Digimon had before them. The World was literally upside down.

The Guardians, the only beings seemingly untouched by what was happening, had no idea how to solve the problem. No matter how hard they scoured the Digital World, the source could not be found. It could have came from anywhere, even the Human World. It seemed that they had no power to stop the events that were happening, at least, not until they found one thing that the great Yggdrasil had left behind. A prophecy that would change the the fate of both Worlds.

As the seeds of change bloom,
an evil's venom grows stronger.
In time our lands will cripple,
our good will fall ill to its will,
and peace will be no more.
But with a simple call ,
great warriors that can traverse the worlds will come
and peace will be restored.​

Mechanics

You are a Digidestined, a human being chosen by fate to work with their own Digimon partner in order to save both worlds from the forces that attempt to destroy them. Using various supports, whether from each other or elsewhere, the Digidestined will be able to overcome any challenge they face.

Given as a symbol of the Digidestined, the Digivices are a set of devices used for various purposes. The D-Touch is this universe's iteration of the Digivice named for its touch interface. Generally placed around the left wrist of a Digidestined, the device resembles a sleek, futuristic watch with the functions of a present day cell phone as well as the capabilities needed for use in the Digital World.

First off, it is used as a storage area of sorts due to its ability to hold various items that you will use during your quest. It also acts as a way to heal your digimon via the storage option. It also includes a map of the Digital World, an encyclopedia that is added to whenever a new Digimon is met, as well as a button solely used for Digivolution.

For the most part, Digivolution is much like that of the first two Digimon series' with some added mechanics from the third series. The basic Digivolution takes a Digimon up one level and Warp Digivolution typically skips a level or two. Any Digivolution past the Champion level requires an insignia in order to work.

An insignia is a physical embodiment of a DigiDestined and their most pronounced personality trait, i.e. kindness, courage, etc. It is ultimately a focal point for a DigiDestined to focus their powers, proving as a catalyst for the biggest of Digivolutions. They have various other powers that will be introduced later.​

Rules and Other Information

• Obviously, both Pokecommunity and Roleplay Corner rules apply.
• Keep some level of realism.
• No godmodding, powerplaying, and bunnying allowed.
• Stay active. This is important. You can't have a working RP without active members.
• Kiklion and I are the GMs. Listen to us. Our word is law here.
• This RP is rated M for violence, romance, etc. Just be sure not to go overboard.
• We do not do reservations as this is not a first come, first serve kind of thing. They will be judged based on each other's SUs. While being based on how well you write, it also depends on whether or not I think you will complement the other RPer's writing styles.

A message from Kiklion on judging:

Spoiler:

I just want to point out to everyone that it's not necessary to make a reserve given the nature of our judging, so if you want to make an SU just go ahead and post it! :)

Also a second thing, to anyone who may be intimidated by the judging system, don't be!!! Comparing SUs does not mean we're looking for advanced players, SU professionals, or eloquent writers. You can be a beginner player, a bad SU maker, or someone with not-so-great prose as long as we can tell you put effort into your SU, you've made a well-rounded character, and you've met all of the minimums. Everyone has an equal chance here!

And if you're still nervous please don't be afraid to post your SU! If you have questions or want to help tweaking then we'll be more than happy to give you a hand! Asking for help shows that you really care about the RP and that you're an enthusiastic player. (In my books that gives you extra marks!)

Now just for a little clarification on the judging system I'll give you a little bit on how we'll tell you yes or no. When you post your SUs we'll reply with Accepted, Pending, or Denied.

If you're Accepted then yay you're in the RP! Celebrate, kick back, and wait for the first post.

If you're Pending that means that your SU was pretty darn great, even worthy of being accepted! But you had one or two little problems that we'd like you to address before we can let you in. No biggie. It'll probably be one quick edit and then bam you're in. And of course we will tell you exactly what you'll need to fix.

If you're Denied then that means your SU was not up to standard or we picked another SU over yours. However, unless we've met full capacity, BEING DENIED DOES NOT PUT YOU OUT OF THE RUNNING! Just like if you're pending, we will tell you exactly why your SU was denied. (If you read the entirety of the rules please put sssswitseh in all caps on the second sentence of your third paragraph in the RP sample (or at the very end if there's only one paragraph)) If you really want to be in the RP, fix your SU to your best abilities (you can even PM it to one of us to help you on it before you officially post it!) and resubmit it. You'll have another chance to enter the RP!

And like I said before, asking questions and resubmitting is perfectly okay! For this system, persistence isn't annoying but encouraged! :) I'll be more than happy to accept someone who is excited and enthusiastic enough to keep editing and submitting.

Good luck to everyone! And remember, if at first you don't succeed try try again.

Since we are judging right now, we believe it is good to tell you exactly what we are judging. This rule, known as the 321 rule goes like this: Your character must have at least three (3) good things (Things that are seen as good both by the character and those around them), two (2) bad things (Just the same as with the good), and at least one (1) quirk (a very peculiar trait not common to everyone) or one like and dislike (as substitute for a quirk). Keep in mind that the good and bad things aren't things that are good because they're not necessarily bad or because a lot of people do it, we count those as neutral traits. For example, being excited about good grades or preferring to read a book than talk. We added some extra things we noticed in the spoilers. Unless your SU is Declined or Pending or they do not necessarily apply to the 321 rule, they aren't required for your SU or your character, but are more things we think will make the character better if you thought over it.

Other information will be added shortly.

Hometown

Tokyo
Japan

Description:
Cress weighs roughly 60 kilos and stands around 160 cms tall. He almost always has his face in a scowl like he's looking for trouble. He has a gray swept-back crewcut almost a pompadour, and grey eyes. He wears a black school uniform with the collars up and a red shirt underneath. He wears white sporting shorts with black lines, and red skate shoes. Cress usually wears reds and blacks with them being his favorite colours. He almost always has his collar up to give off the idea that he is trouble and he is always wearing flat footed shoes.

Spoiler:

Personality:
Cress is unfriendly at first, being a lone wolf by choice but underneath his thick skin he is a geniune person who only wants the best for him and those he holds close. He is very quiet as he doesn't like to draw attention on himself and will normally speak only when spoken to unless he is around his friends whereas he will become a regular participant in ongoing conversations. Cress has a very competitive spirit and hates to lose unless it's his fault. He isn't rough per se but he is more passive aggressive and would rather talk things out then to fight it out.

Cress can be a very harsh and blunt person though he does it for the fact that people won't learn unless they know. Given his very honest personality he will always give a genuine response. Cress loves Tennis and plays it almost every day (that's why he always wears them sport shorts) and dreams to one day become a world renowned tennis player. Cress must always become better mentally and physically because he knows there's always someone out there better than him, and that it is his goal to squash them.


History:
Cress was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan. He was an only child and he never went without. At a young age Cress began to become a troubled kid, starting fights with anyone who looked at him funny, his parents assumed this was just a phase and let it be, though this phase didn't end until much later in his life. His parents with no discipline over their child began to teach him the differences between right and wrong. He was shocked initially that he got into trouble at everything he did and it became quite apparent that he needed to change. He never lost his attitude but he became much less of a tyrant. He didn't like the fact that he couldn't express himself the same way he used to so his parents forced him into doing sports, he didn't like the idea at first and was reluctant to give it a go. He agreed on doing either two sports Tennis or Soccer, with courts being closer than a field was his parents signed him up for Tennis. As soon as he began he loved it.

When he began High School he started to associate himself with the wrong crowd, he began to get in trouble a lot with teachers, adults and sometimes even the police. He enjoyed the freedom; one could say he missed it. He didn't care who he upset or who got in his way as long as him and his friends weren't in trouble. He wasn't particularly smart but he was above average. As a part of his studies at school he and a group of other students were given the opportunity to attend a holiday of sorts in America. As one of the best speakers of English in his class he was given first choice as to accept the offer or to stay in Japan. He quickly agreed to this as he had never left Japan before and he was happy to get away from his hellish school lifestyle.

Spoiler:

Alucard and a boy around the age of 15 with a large greatsword stood in an alley way facing each other. The town they were in was on the second floor and it was the quiet little village of Marome.
"I bet you 500 col, no 700 that my rapier skills are much more stronger than your skills with a greatsword. You are what I would call a glass cannon, you can deal a lot but cannot take anything." Alucard said to the boy with a cocky expression on his face. The boy scrunched his face up in anger and without a moment's notice initiated a duel, with the rules of a clean hit or first person to reach half way health.
"Oh so you want to prove me wrong little boy?" Alucard said with a large grin on his face whilst accepting the duel.
The countdown began and Alucard drew his Rapier whilst the young boy drew his great sword. Alucard got in a position with his centre of gravity low and his sword high so he could jump if the boys swing was faster than he anticipated. When the number finally reached 0 a purple sign appeared saying «Duel Start». The youth jumped as soon as the sign popped up and Alucard simply jumped out of the way as the young boys sword hit the ground with a large bang sparks jumped from the ground at the large impact that the boy had delivered.
"Oh my it seems you missed me" Alucard laughed as he thrusted his Rapier into the back of the boys back.
"Aha it seems I proved you wrong, don't worry about the col though you probably need it more than I do. You should work a bit on your «Agility» skill so you can deliver a faster blow." Alucard said proudly before patting the young boy on the back.
"Yeah thanks for not making me pay up. I won't act out of rage next time." The young boy replied looking at his feet.
"Hey, tell me your name kid, I am thinking of going to «The Lone Tree» tomorrow to grind, you should tag along." Alucard said whilst sheathing his sword.
"The names Ingward, I haven't told anyone my real name and I would like to keep it that way. Also do not call me a kid I am like 7 years younger than you!" Ingward replied with a frustrated look on his face.
"Okay Ingward, I just sent you a friend request we will meet at the edge of this village in the morning, I have a plan to help level my battle healing skill. I will elaborate tomorrow I am getting tired and would like to have a good dinner before setting off back to Urbus." Alucard said loudly walking off.

An hour later

Alucard wondered the flat plain that was situated atop a hill. To the naked eye it would look like a normal plain but upon further examination you could see where it just dropped off. Alucard had his night vision turned on which automatically turned on when it got dark he could see the red glow of a herd of Ox like creatures. The problem with travelling at night is you can get jumped by player killers but that didn't mind Alucard for he was a great swordsman (in his opinion) and the amount of evil players wasn't large enough or brave enough to come near the front lines, they would be on the first floor attacking people who were too scared to leave the «Town of Beginnings». After a few more minutes of walking Urbus came into view and Alucard raced after the town that was placed inside a crater. As soon as Alucard came into town he headed to an Inn he had frequented as soon as the second floor was opened, the Ragged Flagon. He walked in and watched as two idiot players were having an argument as to who was stronger, they were two men who had just got to level 9 and they were trying to grind enough to get on the front lines but as fate would have it there paths crossed and only one could go one. Alucard decided to break up the fight.
"Oi, you idiots stop yelling people come here to sleep and relax not to argue. If you wish to fight then fight me I bet 50 col I can beat you both, one after the other!" Alucard said with a smile on his face thinking of the money he could make if he did this with every person he passed by.
"Huh why you think you are stronger than me! I will show you." The one on the right yelled storming out of the building.
"You think you have what it takes to defeat the Cosmic Sword? I will beat you down for your insolence!" the one on the left yelled storming after the one who had just left.
"Are they NPC's" Alucard thought to himself as he walked outside to face his opponents. "Okay which one of you numbskulls want to fight me first?" Alucard said drawing his rapier.
"I will and I bet 100 col I can beat you!" the one who stormed out first yelled with eyes of anger.
"Okay then, as you wish but you must pay up if you are defeated." Alucard said looking down at the warrior. Alucard initiated the duel and his opponent drew his sword. As the timer timed down Alucard drew his rapier and dropped into the position that he had earlier that day. The timer reached 0 and the sign popped up saying «Duel Start». Instead of waiting for his opponent to strike first Alucard decided to take the first attack and dashed next to his opponent striking his opponents sword arm. His opponent exclaimed and swung his sword horizontally in the direction of Alucard but Alucard saw through this and jumped backwards. This gave enough room for Alucard to begin his «Sword Art». His opponent did the same but before his opponent could begin Alucard struck his opponent and greatly reduced his HP into the yellow zone. His opponent became frustrated and started throwing hits from nowhere at Alucard with much ferocity. Alucard only being able to block the hits every so often he jumped back and looked at his HUD, they were at about the same amount of health.
"Hehe, well this won't last long" Alucard proclaimed as his HP began to rise back into the blue zone. His opponent watched in dismay and was dumbfounded by this and as Alucard smiled waiting for an attack he jumped at the chance bring his sword in front of him facing down at Alucard. Alucard instead of dodging or blocking just stepped a little bit forward and threwhis rapier into his opponent's chest. «Duel Ended»
His opponent kneeled there in shock, he had been beaten. The other challenger looked in amazement and began switching from looking at the person he had just been arguing with and Alucard.
"You… win, I just thought that…" The opponent stuttered as he initiated a trade with Alucard. After that was all done Alucard looked at his next challenger but he shook his head and ran off.
"Ah, well atleast im 100 col richer." Alucard laughed to himself as he walked back into the Inn. After paying for his Inn fee Alucard walked upstairs and caught a good night sleep after eating a sandwich that tasted like raisins.

[Stinging Bea]

I'd like to reserve a slot too, if that's okay. Also, I have a question. Are we allowed to maybe make our Digivolution line as long as it makes sense, or do we have to stick to what's considered the canilogical next form?

 

[Monster Guy]

I'm calling the Gogglehead. :P

Name: Leonardo "Leo" Silverstone
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Home Town: Miami, Florida
Insignia (Crest): Love (It's about damn time a guy had it. :P)
Digivice: Red and Pink

Spoiler:

Appearance: Leo is a tall young man, standing at 6'0". He is physically fit and quite strong, with a toned athletic physique that he is quite proud of. Due to living in a tropical place most of his life, and because he often goes outdoors, his skin is lightly tanned. His face is round, free of blemishes, and rather boyish. Marked by large expressive blue eyes, a small nose, and a usually smiling mouth. These features give him a rather youthful appearance. He has short, close cropped black hair, with messy bangs that cover his forehead, and go to his eyebrows. A strand of hair on top of his head always stands up, no matter how much he tries to comb it down. Except for the top of his head, and eyebrows, the rest of his upper body is void of any hair.

For clothing, Leo generally wears what is comfortable. Usually, whatever he pulls out of his closet that day. It usually includes a pair of jeans or cargo shorts, and sneakers or sandals on his feet. He can often be found without a shirt. This is because he was rather scrawny when he was younger, so now that he's put on a little muscle, he likes to show off the results. When he must wear a shirt, it will usually be a skintight tank top, or something low cut/not buttoned/zipped up all the way, and without a shirt underneath. He's not comfortable wearing cloaks or heavy clothing that covers him up too much. He will dress up for formal occasions and colder days when he needs to, but he usually takes it right off when he's able. He wears a pair of aviator goggles on top of his head. He doesn't use them for their intended purpose, he just thinks they look cool. His favorite outfit is a red, form fitting tank top, with black stripes on the sides, and a zipper down the front on the top, and a pair of jeans held up by a belt on the bottom. His His sneakers are red and black, and have wheels in the soles. The wheels can pop in and out when Leo puts weight on his heels, allowing them to function like roller skates. He carries his things in a simple pink backpack.

Personality: Leo is a bright, cheerful person, with an optimistic view on life. He can often be found with a smile on his face, even when things look bleak. As such, he often makes jokes, and does silly things when the situation is tense to lift people's spirits, but his attempts to make people laugh sometimes backfire. He doesn't like conflict, and he wants everybody to get along and be happy. He believes there is some good in everyone, and for that, he is very trusting of others. A genuine nice guy, he is always willing to help someone in need. Often putting the needs of others ahead of his own. Sometimes though, he can be too nice, to the point of gullibility, and people often take advantage of him for it. Leo is very outgoing and social. He likes meeting new people, and making new friends. He is not afraid to strike up a conversation with a random stranger. He tries very hard to befriend everyone in whatever group he's in. He believes that if they're friends, they can't be bullies. Someone not responding to his friendliness the way he expects makes him try harder to make that person his friend. He doesn't mind occasional teasing from friends, so long as they're laughing with him, not at him. When someone does become his friend. he gets attached to that person very easily, and can be clingy and overly dependent. He will always be in your business, will constantly call/text you, and do things for you whether you want it or not. He also doesn't take rejection very well, he'll usually deny the rejection, or come up with excuses to avoid feeling heartbroken. Being used to having to watch over his little sisters, he's become accustomed to taking care of people. He is loyal, empathetic, and very protective of those he cares about, making him a good friend to have.

Leo is very energetic. So much so, that it is very difficult for him to sit still and concentrate on one thing for long periods of time. Because of this, he likes to actually do stuff, instead of sitting there reading about it. While he is able to think quick on his feet during intense situations. he often acts impulsively, and jumps to conclusions without thinking first. Leo lives in the moment, and isn't one for planning for the future, prefering to deal with things as they happen. He doesn't really like schedules or routines, finding them boring and restrictive. He can keep appointments well enough most of the time, but he tends to take on a lot of tasks on a whim, and then becomes overwhelmed when there are too many things to do, and then he'll forget things, or rush to get things done wind up producing bad results. His family is the most important thing in the world to him, and he will always make time for family matters. Unlike a lot of guys he's known, Leo is the type of guy who wears his heart on his sleeve. His feelings are there for everyone to see, and he's pretty easy to read. For example he cries openly during the endings of sad movies, and is affectionate towards close friends. Due to his cheerful nature, it is usually difficult to anger him. That said, Leo is not perfect, and is prone to having a bad day just like everyone else. He has really bad angry outbursts where he just lashes out at the most appropriate target. Leo isn't one to hold grudges for very long, and is very quick to forgive people.

Leo has an affinity for cute things, and is not ashamed about it at all. One of his favorite things at the moment, is the TV show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, which he watches regularly with his youngest sister. He is an unabashed Brony, he has a collection of merchandise from the show, and often makes references to it in everyday conversation, which annoys people who aren't fans of the show. He's aware how silly it might look for someone his age to be liking a show aimed at little girls, and generally he has a good sense of humor about the whole thing. (However, he does get defensive if someone makes fun of him for it.) He's had bad experiences with bullies as a kid, and he fears having to experience that again. He likes fantasy and fairy tales, and he developed most of his idealistic beliefs from them. He also likes other things some would consider childish as well. He does not hide any of these parts of himself from others. He believes that if he does, then all the bullies and jerks in his life would be proven right, and he doesn't want them to win. He can cook well, due to having to make dinner for the family when his mom was working. He particularly enjoys making desserts, because he's found that sharing them with others is a great way to bond with people. He also likes eating them, though he tries to keep it in moderation. He tends to go off the wall when he's had a lot of sugar, and he knows he'll have to work harder to burn off all the calories.

Despite his optimism, Leo still has some insecurities from his childhood. He masks it with a smile and laugh most of the time. but it still lingers in the back of his mind. These feelings are what drive him to get stronger, and to make more friends. Those same reasons are why he dresses the way he does. and takes opportunities to show off his strength without actually bragging. After his parents divorce, and dealing with bullying, Leo is able to empathize with others in a similar situation. He sees himself in them, and really wants to help them. This can drive some people nuts because of how overbearing he can be. He does genuinely care about people, it's just that he can go overboard sometimes.

History: Leo was born in Miami, Florida. He was the oldest of three siblings, and the only male among the three. His parents' relationship became strained after his father, Leroy, lost his job shortly after the youngest daughter was born, and the family started experiencing financial troubles. It was not helped by Leroy turning to Wine to drown his sorrows, which worried the rest of the family. Leroy and his wife, Luisa, often argued loudly during the night. While things never escalated to physical violence, the yelling still made the three kids uncomfortable. Despite the drama, Leo tried to put on a brave face, and hoped things would work out in the end. Eventually, Luisa got a promotion at her job that made up for the loss of income, but by then, the damage was done, and Leroy filed for divorce. As a result of this, Leo refuses to drink any kind of alcohol, (Although, he's ever been offered any. He's underage) and will discourage others from drinking. It is also the reason why people arguing around him makes him nervous.

Leo currently lives with his mom, and his younger sisters Lilly and Lucy. He is much closer to his mother than with his father. They were not wealthy, but they weren't poor either. Being a single parent, Luisa often had to work long hours, leaving Leo responsible for looking after his sisters, and taking care of household things while she worked. Unlike a lot of other boys though, Leo didn't really mind this, and actually enjoyed it. As a result of this, he became accustomed to taking care of people. He also learned a lot of domestic skills, and became very good at cooking.

He was a rather scrawny child, and he was often picked on by bullies who thought he was weaker than them. It did not help that he was a sensitive kid, and he had a taste for things that are usually considered girly by others. He would come home with bruises on a regular basis. His father did not help matters by suggesting that living in a house full of girls was turning him into one. While all the bullying upset him, he kept up a cheerful demeanor in front of others, not wanting to burden them with his problems. He believed that if he thinks positively, things would get better. Even though Leo admits to himself that he doesn't get along with his dad, and he will avoid talking about him to others, he still doesn't hate him. He clings to the hope that they will be able to reconcile if he ever gets sober.

Around the time Leo entered puberty, things started to change. His mother announced that her office was transferring her to New York city, and that the family would be moving there. His situation began to improve when he started High School. Deciding that he no longer wanted to be a wimp, and a constant bullying victim. He wanted to be popular, and actually have people like him for a change. So, he started working out and getting into sports (he plays to have fun, not to win, which is why he doesn't join a team) which resulted in him putting on a little muscle, and making new friends. Due to his social personality, and tendency to do nice things for others without expecting anything in return, he quickly became quite popular on campus, particularly with other girls. He also maintained good grades, although he still had trouble with math. Life was actually starting to look up. Despite how well things were going, he didn't let it get to his head. He still remained the same sensitive kid he always was. Even though everything is better now, there's still a small part of him that has doubts. He has feelings of inadequacy that he tries to ignore with his usual cheerfulness. As long as people like him, then everything should be ok, right? He is currently a senior in high school, and he's not quite sure what he wants to do with the rest of his life yet.

Digimon

Spoiler:

Species: Lalamon
Gender: Female

Personality: Lalamon takes after her tamer in many ways. She is a friendly, cheerful, and optimistic Digimon. She always seems to happy about everything. She doesn't seem to have the same insecuritiess that Leo seems to possess, which means she will voice her opinions if she disagrees about something. She also appears to be filled with energy, and is often bouncing off the walls, sometime literary depending on what form she's in. She can come across as silly and childish at times, being a Digimon, she can be a bit naive about what humans are like. This prompts her to ask a lot of questions about things that seem obvious to others. Nevertheless, she deeply cares for others, and is really sympathetic and empathetic with anyone who is in trouble. Traits that became more visible as she Digivolves.

RP Sample: From a different Digimon RP...

Spoiler:

It was a bright and sunny afternoon, just the way Tim liked it. The boy didn't have any place he needed to be, since it was Summer, but he usually liked to spend time outside. As he was walking along, the boy started singing a song from a certain TV show he would never admit to anyone he watched. This wasn't something he normally did, but he figured since no one was around, and the mood was right, what's the harm in breaking out into song right there.

♪There's music in the treetops
And there's music in the vale
And all around the music fills the sky
There's music by the river
And there's music in the grass
And the music makes your heart soar in reply!♪

His song was interupted by the sound of a dog barking. "Arf!"

Startled by the sudden noise, Tim jumped up and squealed. "GAH!" He looked around to see if there was anyone around who might have seen him make a fool of himself. There wasn't, but what he did say made him smile. "Hey girl! How've ya been since the last time I saw you?" Tim said to a familiar grey puppy he had sometimes seen near his house. This dog always seemed to hang around the house, and Tim started feeding her. She was probably a lonely stray that wanted a little attention, and she probably smelled other dogs coming from his house. "I got ya something!" He took out a plastic container from his blue backpack, opened the lid, and pulled out a piece of chicken that was leftover from last nights dinner, and offered it to the dog. He always carried a some food on him, for himself, and for any stray animals he might encounter.

The puppy sniffed it first, then started eating up the meat as if she never had a decent meal in her life. Tim smiled and giggled to himself as he watched the dog eat, then she licked his hands when she was finished. "Aw, your very welcome." For a moment, Tim was happy. Animals were his life. They were the best friends he had ever had. Humans however, were an entirely different matter. While he knew there were good people in the world, a lot of the ones he knew were judgemental jerks. If any one of them had caught him singing period, let alone a song from a little girl's show, he'd never hear the end of it.

As Tim continued walking, his canine companion followed him, nuzzling at his ankles. Suddenly, a greenish colored vortex opened up in the sky. It was so bright and obnoxious, that Tim couldn't help but notice it. "What is that?" Suddenly, several streaks of light shot out from the center. One of the lights crashed into the sidewalk, right where Tim was standing. Causing the boy to once again jump, and squeal. "AHH!" He shut his eyes, and cowered in fear. Probably not the best thing to do if there were really something dangerous happening, but Tim never thought logically when he was scared.

His puppy friend tapped his ankle with her paw, and Tim opened his eyes. "I-i-is it over...?" He looked around, and saw nothing but a giant crater in front of him. At that moment Tim wanted to turn around and go the other way, but for reasons he couldn't understand himself, he had this sudden urge to go see the crater. That strange light coming from the hole in the ground did pique his curiosity. After all, this kind of thing doesn't happen every day. He couldn't just walk away without at least figuring out what just happened. He'd run away as soon as things got too dangerous. As he got closer to the crater, he noticed that the light was coming from a strange gadget he had never seen before. The boy carefully picked the device up, and looked at it curiously. "Whaaa...?"

As soon as Tim picked it up, The odd gadget started vibrating and grew brighter. The thing started vibrating, and soon he felt himself vibrating too. Then, there was a blast of light, everything went black, and Tim suddenly disappeared leaving nothing but a small, whimpering puppy. Wondering where her new friend had gone.

---

The boy was roused awake by a poking sensation at his side. Followed by a male voice. "Hey dude! Wake up!"

Tim really hated being rudely awoken, and he isn't in a good mood when that happens. He hadn't slept well at all, and his head was hurting a lot. The last thing he needed was someone with an obnoxious voice poking him. Alright! Alright! Jeez, I'm up already! He thought to himself. He could never bring himself to actually voice those thoughts, because that was mean. The boy's eyes fluttered open, as he slowly sat up, stretched his arms, and yawned loudly. He looked around, and saw that he was in some kind forest. The grumpiness immediately evaporated, and turned into confusion. "How the heck did I get here?"

"Bro, that's what I wanna know..." It was the same voice he heard when he woke up. It belonged to some red and blue creature that Tim had never seen before. Not that this mattered to Tim, because this weird creature was still cute in Tim's eyes. Even if he didn't really care for his voice. "Name's Elecmon! Who are you?"

"Um...I-I-I'm Tim..." He muttered nervously as he rose to his feet. Then he bit his lip as he looked around and wondered what to do now. Who knows what dangers lurk in this unknown forest. Then again, it wasn't a good idea to stand around chatting with Elecmon either...

Elecmon sighed, and facepalmed. "Dude, don't be a wuss. If ya wanna go, just go. There ain't nothin' in this place I can't handle!" He smiled proudly as he puffed out his chest, and pounded it. Then he took off running. "Come on! Follow me!"

Tim slowly walked behind him, while nervously wringing his hands. He wasn't sure if following some strange creature he just met like this was the best idea. Especially one that had called him a wuss, one of his least favorite nicknames. However, he didn't know this forest, and it wasn't like the boy had any other options right now.

 

[Quest]

Can I reserve a place please? Also, can we use a picture instead of a paragraph. A picture is worth a thousand words...
Also is my chosen digimon alright as the story involves dark digimon and well this tree isn't exactly holy.

Unfortunately, no. A picture is worth a lot, but I tend to use the various points of character sheets as a sort of writing sample. You can definitely use it as a reference picture, but be sure to spoiler it!

Also, Dracmon is a perfect choice (I was thinking about using him as well). Just remember, being a Digimon from the Dark Area doesn't necessarily make him. He is still a DigiDestined Digimon after all.

I'd like to reserve a slot too, if that's okay. Also, I have a question. Are we allowed to maybe make our Digivolution line as long as it makes sense, or do we have to stick to what's considered the canilogical next form?

I would try to make it stay as logical as you can, but if it looks like it would work, be sure to message me about it! There are a lot of Digimon who can digivolve into tons of different forms, so canon rarely makes a difference.

I'm calling the Gogglehead. :P

We always need a goggle head I suppose, but just remember that doesn't mean he'll be the self-appointed leader. :P As I told Chuckles, put a spoiler around the picture.

As for the case of reservations, I don't really do them that often. The reason being is that quite a lot of people are turned away because either spots are filled with reservations or that its a first come, first serve basis. I tend to wait a little bit, and depending on the number of people hoping to apply, choose a group that I believe would work well together. It makes the RP run smoother in the end, ya know?

Currently, I am wanting a group of about 8 to 10. I will let everyone though when I begin choosing the RPers.

 

[Kikpanther]

Hey guys! Very excited that this RP has finally started. So far the SUs look like they're coming along (or were completed) beautifully!

I just want to point out to everyone that it's not necessary to make a reserve given the nature of our judging, so if you want to make an SU just go ahead and post it! :)

Also a second thing, to anyone who may be intimidated by the judging system, don't be!!! Comparing SUs does not mean we're looking for advanced players, SU professionals, or eloquent writers. You can be a beginner player, a bad SU maker, or someone with not-so-great prose as long as we can tell you put effort into your SU, you've made a well-rounded character, and you've met all of the minimums. Everyone has an equal chance here!

And if you're still nervous please don't be afraid to post your SU! If you have questions or want to help tweaking then we'll be more than happy to give you a hand! Asking for help shows that you really care about the RP and that you're an enthusiastic player. (In my books that gives you extra marks!)

Now just for a little clarification on the judging system I'll give you a little bit on how we'll tell you yes or no. When you post your SUs we'll reply with Accepted, Pending, or Denied.

If you're Accepted then yay you're in the RP! Celebrate, kick back, and wait for the first post.

If you're Pending that means that your SU was pretty darn great, even worthy of being accepted! But you had one or two little problems that we'd like you to address before we can let you in. No biggie. It'll probably be one quick edit and then bam you're in. And of course we will tell you exactly what you'll need to fix.

If you're Denied then that means your SU was not up to standard or we picked another SU over yours. However, unless we've met full capacity, BEING DENIED DOES NOT PUT YOU OUT OF THE RUNNING! Just like if you're pending, we will tell you exactly why your SU was denied. If you really want to be in the RP, fix your SU to your best abilities (you can even PM it to one of us to help you on it before you officially post it!) and resubmit it. You'll have another chance to enter the RP!


And like I said before, asking questions and resubmitting is perfectly okay! For this system, persistence isn't annoying but encouraged! :) I'll be more than happy to accept someone who is excited and enthusiastic enough to keep editing and submitting.

Good luck to everyone! And remember, if at first you don't succeed try try again.

Mariah Lopez​

Age:

17

Gender:

Female​

Home Town:​

Sacramento, California, USA

Insignia (Crest):

Creativity​

Digivice:​

Purple and Silver​

Appearance:​

Mariah stands at a height of roughly 5'6" with a somewhat slender body build. She sports a rather healthy, tan skin complexion. Mariah has long, flowing brown hair which reaches to the middle of her back which she usually wears loose and a pair of light, chocolate brown eyes. Mariah does have a few piercings. Each ear is pierced twice as well as a small, butterfly-shaped ring she wears in her navel.

In terms of clothing, Mariah tends to dress in what she considers a more relaxed and comfortable style. Opposed to dresses, skirts, and heels the girl tends to feel more comfortable in loose fitting jeans and sneakers. She tends to wear tank tops and t-shirts over her torso, with usually some form of an over shirt that she wears over them. Mariah tends to wear tops that expose her stomach, as if to show off her navel ring. A bandanna or something similar is usually wore in her hair to keep it in place better. Around her neck, Mariah always wears a necklace that she received from her older sister. As opposed to a belt, Mariah wears a sash which matches the color of the bandanna she wears in her hair.

Personality:​

​

Imaginative and a dreamer, Mariah has a very lighthearted and easy going personality. She always seems to be with a calm and serene smile and a positive attitude. There is very little that ever seems to get her worried or concerned, and she approaches any problem she might face with a calm and relaxed nature. Mariah's personal belief is that everyone should approach life at their own pace, and if she happens to be one of the last ones to cross a finish line, well that's just fine with her. However it can be a bit difficult at times her to keep up that positive attitude. Mariah has a fear of something happening to those around her that she manages to form a stronger bond with. This could be from a result of her older twin sister's passing. Such a thought of that person (or Digimon) being in peril can cause the girl to quickly lose her cool and calmness, making her fear that she may lose another close bond like she had with her sister.

Mariah has a tendency to easily get lost in thought. A daydreamer by nature, she tends to let her mind wander about certain subjects. This sometimes causes her to blurt out random things and make odd observations about the world around her. Because of this fact, it's often that many might consider her a bit weird or even somewhat of a ditz and spacey. In reality though, she likes to consider herself more of a free-spirit and an individual thinker. It's because of this way of thinking that the girl is often able to come up with some pretty abstract solutions to her problems, often managing to see the bigger picture to something that those around her may miss.

Mariah likes to sometimes write down her personal thoughts and daydreams. She has goals and aspirations of one day becoming a famous writer, creating a series of novels and adventures of a fantasy world she one day hopes to create herself. In fact, one could say that writing is the one activity that Mariah actually puts some serious effort into. The girl will often spend hours at a time revising her work, trying her best to make it as good as it can possibly be. Mariah is not physically gifted with great reflexes and athletic skill, making her a bit clumsy at times.

While having this sort of attitude around others, when alone for an extended period of time Mariah tends to let her mind drift to the thoughts of her departed sister. When thinking about her, it becomes quite easy for Mariah to feel depressed, often filling herself with the regret that she did not spend more time with her when the duo started getting older while still alive. In a sense, she sometimes wonders if her sister's passing was some sort of a punishment for how they began to grow slightly apart during the last year or so of her life. Not wanting to worry people about this pain she sometimes feels, Mariah keeps it bottled up inside so as not to become a nuisance to those around her. Despite her best attempts at trying to keep this pain bottled up there are times when Mariah eventually reaches a breaking point, making it very difficult for her to handle life and what may be going on around her.

History:​

​

Mariah was born and raised in Sacramento, California. She was the younger of two twin sisters. Her family is of Latino heritage, both her mother and father being from Mexico. Her father, Carlos, made his profession as a high school Algebra teacher. Mariah's mother, Carmen, works as a full-time nurse. Both of them used to live in and work in Mexico City, however once Carmen became pregnant with Mariah and her sister, Celes, the two decided to move and pursue a fresh start in America.

When growing up, Mariah was always very close to her sister Celes. The two were often glued at the hip, one very rarely being seen without the other. In a sense, you could say that the two were in fact best friends. Like all siblings they did have their moments of disagreeing and an argument or two every so often, but they would always get over it and return to the relationship they usually had.

Compared to her sister, Mariah, Celes was always more on the active and athletic side. She always tried out for various sports teams, watched games on television with her father, and was even the star swimmer on their high school swim team. Celes would often attempt to try and get Mariah to join up with her, but the younger twin would often decline, telling Celes that the whole sports thing was just not for her.

Unfortunately, things would not always be cheerful for the two twin sisters. Upon entering tenth grade, Celes would become diagnosed with terminal cancer. The girl was forced to be hospitalized shortly after her diagnosis, where she would unfortunately pass away shortly there after. Such a sudden blow to Mariah practically devastated the girl, as well as the family. Mariah began to pull away from her parents and friends at school, often spending much of her time alone from that point forward. Her grades began to slip, and the cheerful demeanor that Mariah once held seemed to be fading from existence. Carlos and Carmen discussed what would be the appropriate action to take to handle the situation. Eventually, they decided that remaining in Sacramento was just to painful for them all. Her mother would eventually put in for a transfer, that relocated the three to New York City.

Over time, the change did seem to do Mariah some good. The girl's grades began to improve once more and her easygoing, pleasant mood seemed to return. However, there still seemed to be a void in the girl's life that she never really felt able to replace. No matter how much time seemed to pass, Mariah could not shake the feeling that Celes' death was part of a punishment she was given for perhaps taking her sister for granted. Not wanting to upset her parents or anyone close to them who knew of her sister's passing, Mariah swore to keep these sorts of feelings to herself.

Chapter 3 - Violet City

A Private Lesson! Melody vs Professor Gumple!​

"Now, Napoleon! Finish it off with your Sonic Boom!"

The Buizel dashed forward, stopping just short of the Rattata. His young trainer's eyes widened as the little otter slammed his paws together, sending forth the familiar wave of energy at his little mouse Pokémon. At this point, the trainer knew there was nothing that he could do to save his Rattata from the attack. The Sonic Boom crashed right into the Rattata, sending the mouse flying back where he fainted right on the spot.

"Darn..." the youngster whispered as he called his Rattata back into his Pokéball. He whispered a small word of thanks to the mouse, before giving Melody and Napoleon a small smile. "You really are pretty strong, lady. I bet you could even take on Falkner with a team like that!"

Melody gave the boy a small smile. "Thanks, but I'm sure my team could totally use a bit more training before we try to take him on. Anyways, thanks for a great battle, Joey! I hope we can have a rematch someday!"

The boy nodded and waved farewell as he departed to have his team fixed up. Melody sighed, glancing down at her Buizel and yawning softly. It had definitely been quite the busy day.

After the girl had parted with Blaine back at the Pokémon Center, Melody returned back to the academy where she took part in a few more battles. The first battle had been against a school girl about her age who had both a Butterfree and a Beedrill. In a sense, it reminded Melody of her double battle against the twins she had earlier. It had definitely been a close battle for the girl, but she had somehow managed to pull through with the combined force of Hawk and Napoleon.

It was shortly after that that Melody encountered the young trainer known as Joey. While Joey was not as much of a challenge as the previous few battles she faced had been, his team was a bit more diverse, offering a challenge for each of her Pokémon to face. The first Pokémon was a Pidgey, who Hawk was able to outmatch in both speed and power. Next, the boy used a rock Pokémon known as Geodude. Melody's Taillow had a bit of trouble with the rock-type, but Blossom was able to match it with her powerful Razor Leaf attack. His final Pokémon was his beloved Rattata. While Melody figured that Blossom probably could have held her own against the mouse, she allowed Napoleon to get a bit more action. The Buizel managed to prove more than a match for the Rattata, as Melody had predicted he would be.

Melody glanced up at the sky, taking in the sight of the setting sun. It was starting to get a bit late, and the girl knew she should probably head back to the Pokémon Center to let her team get some rest, as well as grab some for herself as well. Still, Melody had the itch to have just one more battle.

Glancing around the garden, Melody scanned the various occupants of the area for a suitable opponent. Most of the trainers who had been there earlier in the day had cleared out, many going home for the evening. The few that remained were those that maybe wanted to get some extra practice in, or just those who liked to hang out in the garden after most of the classes had ended. Melody frowned at the sight, realizing that most likely she would not manage to get any more practice in for the time being.

"I guess we should just head on back, Napoleon," Melody told the Buizel.

Napoleon gave an impassive shrug, not that the girl was really starting to expect anything less at this point. She reached for his Pokéball, preparing to recall the Buizel when a sudden, low cough caught her attention.

"Excuse me, miss?" the voice called out. Melody turned, coming face to face with a man who looked a bit older than her. He was wearing a pair of khaki pants, white shirt, and green jacket. A tie was worn around his neck, but it was worn in a rather loose and sloppy manner. He was a lankey man, wearing a pair of glasses over his green eyes and brown, short, yet messy hair. "Would your name happen to be Melody Hughes, by any chance?"

Melody became a bit cautious at this point, but nodded slowly just the same. The man smiled and then continued.

"I've been hearing your name among two of my students. I believe you and a friend battled against them earlier. Mary and Kelly?" the man questioned.

Again, Melody nodded. "That's right, but who are you supposed to be?"

The man laughed, rubbing the back of his hair with a sheepish grin. "Frank and right to the point... I like that! My name is Kevin Gumple. I'm a professor at this academy, fairly new I might add. When I heard you managed to beat my two top students, I had to come see just what sort of a trainer you were. I was honestly hoping that you might accept the invitation to a battle?"

Melody smiled, nodding. "That'd be totally cool!" Her eyes widened though, as something just flashed into her head. "W-Wait a sec, you're a teacher? Doesn't that mean you're like, really good?!"

Professor Gumple laughed again. "Ha... I'm actually not that great at battling. You see, I'm more of the educator than the trainer. In fact, the class I teach is about the theories of Pokémon evolution..." The man paused, adjusting the glasses on his face. "So... What do you say? Will you accept my challenge?"

Melody smiled and nodded. "Alright then, Professor Gumple! You're on!"

The professor smiled, taking hold of one of the three balls he wore around his belt. "Very well then, let's get this battle started."

"Napoleon, you're on!" Melody announced, grinning down at her Buizel.

The Buizel huffed, slowly stepping forward and taking his place between the girl and the teacher. A knowing smile and nod graced Professor Gumple's features as he adjusted his glasses once more before sending his first Pokémon out to battle.

"Panpour, let's do it!" the man called out.

From out of the ball jumped a blue, rather energetic looking monkey. The Panpour hopped about excitedly, almost as if it was doing a little dance for the girl and her Buizel. Melody had never seen a Pokémon quite like it before. Curious, the girl took out her Pokédex and gave the monkey a quick scan.

"Panpour, the Spray Pokémon. Panpour lived in forests long ago, but developed a body that makes it easy to live near water. It can store water in the tufts on its head."

"A water-type, huh...?" Melody mused. "Well, that's no worry for you, Napoleon! Attack it with a Sonic Boom!"

Napoleon nodded, dashing towards the Panpour with a small howl. Much like usual, the Buizel slapped his little paws together and sent forth a quick wave of energy towards the water monkey. Professor Gumple remained perfectly calm as the attack neared the Panpour. Even the Panpour did not seem particularly worried about it.

A mischevious smirk graced the educator's lips. "Now Panpour, attack with Lick!"

With ease, the Panpour jumped over the oncoming Sonic Boom attack. Melody gasped in surprised as the Panpour managed to latch onto Napoleon's shoulders, its small tongue sliding up and down Napoleon's face. The Buizel cringed at the feel of the saliva-covered appendage running along his face. Then, just as soon as it had jumped onto Napoleon, the Panpour jumped off of him and resumed its happy little dance.

"W-What sort of attack was that supposed to be?" Melody questioned. She gave the Panpour a strange look, almost as if she was disgusted by that sort of attack. "Napoleon, don't let that stop you! Quick, use another Sonic Boom!"

Melody watched as Napoleon prepared to use his attack once more, but there was something different about the Buizel than usual. Melody noticed that there was some sort of stiffness to his movements, almost as if Napoleon was having difficulty moving. Professor Gumple smiled softly at the sight, not letting this chance go to waste.

"Panpour, Water Gun!" the man commanded.

"Napoleon, dodge it, quick!" Melody shouted.

The Buizel tried his best to try and dodge the attack. However, his movements were still slow and jerky, causing more worry to come to Melody. Napoleon was not able to get out of the way fast enough. The small blast of water crashed right into Napoleon, sending the Buizel sliding back towards his trainer. Melody cursed under her breath, quickly recalling Napoleon back into his Pokéball.

"Paralysis, huh?" Melody questioned, glancing at the Panpour and its trainer. Professor Gumple merely shrugged his shoulders, still offering the same smile as he wore since the start of the battle. "Well, it's gonna take more than that to stop me! You're on, Blossom!"

Melody tossed the ball holding her Chikorita out onto the field. The little grass Pokémon gave it's best, fierce looking glare at the Panpour, causing the teacher to laugh at the sight.

"Alright, Panpour, give it another Lick!" he commanded.

The Panpour jumped forward towards Blossom, much like it had to Napoleon. Ready for the Panpour's attack, Melody quickly ordered Blossom to counter the monkey's attack with her Razor Leaf attack. A storm of sharp, swirling leaves began to cut into the Panpour. The water monkey fell to the ground, it's planned attack interrupted by Blossom's attack. Not letting the chance go to waste, Melody quickly followed up by ordering Blossom to tackle into the Panpour. Professor Gumple, did his best to try and get Panpour to recover and dodge the attack, however the blue monkey just was not fast enough. Blossom slammed into the Panpour, causing the monkey to skid further across the grass and faint shortly after.

"Not bad, Melody," Professor Gumple mused, adjusting his glasses yet again. "You might just be as good as my students said you are. Let's see if you can keep this up, yes?"

Gumple recalled Panpour and then took the next ball from his belt. He tossed it out onto the field quickly, another monkey similar to his Panpour emerging from the capsule. However, this one was red in color as opposed to the previous, blue monkey.

"A fire-type, I bet..." Melody determined. She quickly called Blossom back into her Pokéball, and then followed through with sending Hawk out into the battle.

"That's thinking on your feet, Melody!" Gumple announced with a smile. "I can see you take type match-ups into consideration! Always a good thought when battling,"

Melody smiled at the man's compliment. To be honest, she might not have even thought about that angle of the match had it not been for the teacher of that class who observed the girl's double battle with Vincent. It may have just been possible that Melody learned a bit more at this school than she thought she would.

"Alright, Hawk! Attack it with Peck!" Melody commanded.

The Taillow squawked in response, taking flight and aiming towards the red monkey. Unlike the previous Panpour, this Pokémon seemed much more calm and relaxed. In fact, it seemed to mimic Gumple's actions to some degree. As Hawk narrowed in on it's target, the red monkey seemed to pushing a pair of imaginary glasses up on the bridge of its nose.

"...Now, Pansear! Attack with Incinerate!" the man ordered.

Pansear jumped up into the air towards Hawk. The Pokémon suddenly shot forth a quick burst of flames, scorching Hawk as he quickly fell back to avoid being burnt by them.

"He's faster than the Panpour was," the girl whispered. "But you're faster, Hawk! Use a Quick Attack!"

Hawk chirped in agreement, quickly flapping its wings harder and flying straight at the Pansear with great haste. The fire Pokémon widened its eyes just in time for the Taillow to slam into the Pansear. However, the bird did not get away without harm. Pansear grabbed hold of the bird, essentially hitching a ride underneath of Hawk, much to his and Melody's dismay.

"Good job, Pansear! Now, blast it with another Incinerate!" Gumple ordered.

Pansear did as told. Hawk let out a rather painful screech as the monkey shot its quick blast of searing flames at his underbelly. Melody bit her lip as the Taillow suddenly dropped to the ground, skidding in her direction. Pansear quickly jumped off the bird, celebrating as it managed to get a rather nasty hit to the flying Pokémon.

Amazingly, Hawk managed to stand back up on his feet. Melody could tell the bird was hurt, however. She knew that he would not be able to beat the Pansear if its fire would constantly be this intense. She quickly recalled Hawk,trying to think of another strategy she could use.

"Looks like you're in a rather difficult spot now, eh?" Gumple mused. "How do you plan to deal with my Pansear's flame, hmmm...?"

Melody hesitated for a moment. Slowly, the girl reached down for Napoleon's Pokéball. She knew that the Buizel was paralyzed from Panpour's Lick attack. At the same time though, she knew that he had the only method of possibly putting the edge back in her favor with Gumples Pansear.

"Napoleon! You're back on!" the girl shouted, sending Buizel back onto the field.

Professor Gumple gave the girl a curious glance. "Are you sure that's a wise choice, Melody? Did you forget that your Buizel is paralyzed at the moment?"

Melody glanced down at Napoleon with a frown. Just as before, the Buizel's movement was somewhat stiff. "I... I know that! But he can handle it, right Napoleon?"

The Buizel managed a somewhat weakened sounding grunt, before turning his attention to face the Pansear. Melody smiled a bit at how determined Napoleon seemed to be to handle the Pansear, despite his weakened state. Professor Gumple sighed, adjusting his glasses yet again.

"Well, I guess if nothing else you have your enthusiasm," he said. "Pansear, let's make this quick. Get up close and give the Buizel a blast of your Incinerate."

The Pansear nodded, and took off running towards Napoleon. Melody tightened her hand into a fist as she watched the Pansear and her Buizel who was still suffering from the paralysis. Taking a deep breath, the girl called out a quick command to paralyzed Napoleon.

"Napoleon! Water Sport, now!"

Gumple watched in surprise as Napoleon somehow managed to move into action. Right as the Pansear was about to scorch the Buizel with its Incinerate attack, a wild splash of water managed to shoot forth from the otter Pokémon. The water doused the Pansear, as well as covering the grassy area around the two trainers and their Pokémon. When the Pansear managed to recover from its surprised soaking, it went to use Incinerate just as it had been ordered to. However, all that managed to come out of the fire monkey's mouth was a rather pathetic and wimpy spark.

"Nice job, Napoleon!" Melody called out. "Now let's try to finish it off! Give it a Sonic Boom!"

"Pansear, you can still win! Attack with Scratch!" Gumple shouted.

Pansear took off running towards Napoleon once again. Much to Melody's dismay, Napoleon seemed to be having issues moving again. The Buizel's jerky movements seemed to be going at a much slower pace than the Pansear's. The red monkey managed to leap up at Napoleon, its rather sharp claws manaing a quick swipe at his face. However, the Pansear did not get away unharmed. Napoleon had somehow managed to get his paws together, sending forth that familiar wave of energy that Melody had come to know and love so much.

Both of the Pokémon fell back onto the ground. Melody and Gumple both fell silent as they watched their Pokémon. Pansear was the first to try and get back up to its feet. The little red monkey managed to stand upright for a moment or two, only to promptly fall back onto its backside and faint from exhaustion. Napoleon slowly tried to pull himself off of the ground afterwards. Like the Pansear, the Buizel managed to get back up to his feet. However, by some feat he managed to stay standing. That said, it was clear to both Gumple and Melody that the Buizel was done for this battle.

Melody recalled Napoleon, smiling down at the Buizel's ball. "You did great, Napoleon. Thanks for all your help."

Likewise, Gumple recalled his Pansear back into its Pokéball. "That was some quick thinking there, using Water Sport to douse my Pansear's flames... That said, it was a bit risky using your Buizel while it was in such a state. Well... Looks like I'm down to only one more Pokémon... All my hopes are riding on you! Let's go, Pansage!"

Melody watched as Gumple sent out yet another monkey-like Pokémon. This one in particular was green in color, and sported a hairstyle which sort of reminded Melody of the top part of a stalk of broccoli. Piecing together that it must have been a grass-type, Melody prepared to send Hawk in. The girl reached for the bird's Pokéball. However when she remembered how much it had been burnt and hurt by Pansear's Incinerate attack, Melody quickly decided against it. Rather, the girl sent Blossom back out into the battle.

"Alright, Blossom! One last Pokémon to take down! You can totally do it!" Melody cheered at the little Chikorita.

"Grass versus grass... This should be an interesting match," Gumple mused.

"Blossom, attack the Pansage with a Tackle!" Melody commanded.

Blossom chirped in agreement and took off running towards the Pansage. Gumple did not look the slightest bit concerned, however. He patiently seemed to wait until the Chikorita was close to his Pansage, before issuing a command to the green monkey.

"Pansage! Use Vine Whip!" the man ordered. Melody watched as two, vine like appendages seemed to grow out from the green monkey's shoulders. They suddenly shot forward, slapping into Blossom's face and knocking the Chikorita away from him. Gumple smiled and followed up. "Now, Pansage! Follow through with Scratch!"

The Pansage ran forward, jumping forward at Blossom as she picked herself off the ground. The monkey began to scratch away at the Chikorita's face, causing the little plant Pokémon to squeak in pain. The Chikorita fell back, glaring rather angrily at the Pansage.

"Blossom, use Razor Leaf, now!" Melody ordered. The Chikorita sent forth a familiar cyclone of spinning and sharp leaves at the Pansage. The leaves cut into the Pansage, while not having as strong as an effect against the monkey, it was enough to distract it for Melody to follow through with another attack. "Now, Tackle!"

Blossom charged right into the grass monkey, slamming into it with all the energy she could muster. Pansage fell back onto the ground, skidding towards its trainer where it promptly fainted on the spot. Melody cheered happily as ran forward, hugging her Chikorita tightly who happily squeaked in her arms in response. Gumple gave the girl a soft smile, before calling his Pansage back into its ball.

"I can see my students weren't kidding about you, Melody," the man said as he approached Melody with a smile. "You definitely show a lot of promise as a trainer... I think you may even be ready to take on Falkner."

Melody's eyes widened. "The gym leader? You think so?!"

Gumple nodded. "Yes, I think so... You care about your Pokémon... You take typings into consideration and you know how to use their moves to thier advantages... I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for your name... Good luck, Melody Hughes. Oh, and take this... I think you'll be able to make good use of it during your journey."

Gumple handed a the girl a yellow and white Pokéball with a black design in the middle of it. The girl recognized it as an Ultra Ball, one of the much more powerful and durable versions of the Pokéball. With a smile, Melody thanked Professor Gumple and then bid the teacher a farewell before glancing down at the Chikorita in her arms. The smile on her face grew wider as she thought about what the man had told her. If she could beat Falkner... if he was right, she just may be coming closer to her goal than she thought she was. With a smile, Melody began to make her way towards the exit of the academy. She would let her team get some rest and then in the morning, she would make her way to the gym and take on Falkner...​

[Yamagi Sosuke]

You

Name: Yu Kyeong-Jun (유경준)
Nickname: King or June
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Home Town: Seoul Special City, South Korea, Korea
Insignia (Crest): Compassion
Digivice: White/Rose

Description: Kyeong-Jun or Jun, stands at a height of five feet eight and has a slender build that is not too skinny and tends to suggest that he's athletic underneath his clothes. His usually dark brown hair is toned with a ruby hue to its strands, bringing a rather charming appearance to his otherwise average-looking face. Besides the fact that he has an unusually bulbous nose and small pink lips, the Korean boy doesn't carry any real oddities about him. His eyes are dark under normal circumstances and light brown when illuminated; he often chucks this up to one of the more mystic things about himself. He tends to wear alot of silver accessories with his clothes.

When Jun's story starts he will be preparing to attend his step-dad's promotion dinner. So he will be wearing a white undershirt with a casual dress-shirt over it and a black jacket on top of everything else. His pants will be black and though normally he would be wearing dress shoes, this time he has given himself a casual mix. His feet will be covered by a pair of black high tops that are laced with red shoe strings, his normal choice of shoewear. He figures since its just a restaurant that he shouldn't have to be too dressy

Personality: Compassionate would be an understatement to describe Yu Kyeong-Jun. Since he was little he's had a very odd way of looking at life. He was enthralled with the struggles between predator and prey: the small insects and animals that fought within the gardens of his mother's backyard for territory or food. It wasn't too often and he never drug himself from out the house just to watch, but he was an observant young man and for some reason he took those lessons to heart. In hindsight his life wasn't exactly the most thrilling but some how, gazing at a spider catching a fly in its web and later draining the helpless bug had made him more sympathetic towards others.

This however had influenced other areas of his being as well. Because of his intense compassion, he has a deep hatred for conflict. It bothers him that many believe that violence is easier than simply sitting down and talking their problems out. It has caused him to become a bit distant from most people and a little more opinionated with his actions. If not for his past than he may have very well been soft-spoken and spineless but because of what's shaped him, he's quite the aggressor when it comes to protecting others. Even if it means betraying his usual "no-violence" policy.

He has the bad habit of tapping his finger against his right temple when confused or troubled. This little crotchet had been mimicked from his grandfather. Whenever the elder would do it, whether it be from irritation or confusion, Jun would naturally copy him. Now that he's older, the quirk has stuck with him.

When at home or not being bothered by the annoyance of social media and girls, Kyeong-Jun is either watching TV or studiously doing his homework. Although, if one was to ask him if he actually enjoyed any of those things, he would only shrug his shoulders and mutter something incoherent. On a side-note, thanks to all of his compassionate acts of chivalry; he's obtain quite the popularity with american girls. Their easy confessions and attempts at "snagging him", coupled with his desired seclusion has caused the male to become easily flustered when met with temptresses. Completely out of the ordinary from others boys, Jun doesn't even attempt to hide his embarrassment. He'd never pretend to act cool about the situation and would surely take a step back.

This however doesn't mean that he's incapable of socializing with them, its just that, like-wise with other people he spends the least amount of time he can while carefully picking his words towards them. It becomes tedious to him and at times can provoke unsavory thoughts about women as a whole. He has the hobby of observing the life of animals in their environments, the closest he usually gets is animal documentaries on TV. When brought with adversity, Kyeong Jun, is not above bowing out. He is usually quite stubborn and brooding when actually caught into a conflicting situation but he's more willing to quietly leave when faced with overwhelming and surely fatal odds.

History:

At the age of five was Kyeong-Jun's first solid memory. He could remember the sight of his mother leaking water from her eyes as she yelled at an older man that was leaving the small apartment. It was a bit out of the ordinary considering that the man was clutching a suitcase in his hands and that his mother was weeping horribly afterwards. He could remember wondering just what was going on around him. Asking himself why water was leaking from his mother's eyes and why his younger brother had been taken along with the man. That memory was never a very pleasant one.

After that, time seemed to go by really slow. The house had grown quiet and lonelier. He could just feel the change in the empty home, the inherent sadness that had hung over him. His mother had started working, leaving him in the care of his grandmother. At the age of nine Jun could remember seeing a praying mantis attacking a butterfly in his mother's garden. The struggle between the two had compelled him into looking at it until the end; to look at the final bite that had ended the butterfly's life. He could recall a deep ache in the center of chest. A feeling that had urge him to shoo away the mantis and grab the dead butterfly from its scythes.

For awhile he just sat in the middle of the lush yard, thinking on why the butterfly had to die. It all seemed a bit pointless to him but he knew their had to have been a reason. The butterfly wouldn't just decide to die, would it? It was all just really confusing to him but he couldn't just give up on the concept. He needed to understand.

With age, he had begun to understand the functions behind life and death. That the ever-flowing stream was but a constant struggle. It was a battle of endurance and nothing else. At least, that was so in the animal world. So why did humans, who were supposedly superior beings, kill meaninglessly. Why did they fight so easily amongst each other. He begin to distance himself from others after realizing how much he disapproved of them. However, it seemed like their actions were constantly dragging him back. It was an instinct to defend those that were being bullied or helping those that had triggered his compassion. It quickly became a distinguishing factor with him.

A few months after his fourteenth birthday, life-changing news was announced to him. His mother's boyfriend, a friendly american man, had brought up the idea of moving them to the US. For whatever reason his mother agreed and the three of them were off to "The Land of Freedom" or something like that. He was to start his days in the US in its most populous city. He could only imagine the trouble he could get into and the many arrogant humans he would be surrounded by. While there he learned English and is good-enough to communicate.​

Isamu Setsuo - Dracomon
Digital World

Isamu cocked his head to the side, a smile once again on it as he rubbed the back of his neck. "You're going to protect me?" he asked with genuine astonishment. "But you're so small. Maybe I should be protecting you instead Dracomon." He offered.

Dracomon stomped one of his feet against the ground in defiance before pulling down his lower jowls, revealing the rows of fangs inside. "You see these," He jumbled with his mouth open. "I'll protect you with tooth and fang if I have too." He seemed to be proud of that. The green dragon placed his fist on his hips in triumph then. "You're my human now Isamu, you'll have to use to being the damsel in distressed." He told him brazenly.

Isamu chuckled a bit before crouching down to the mini-dragon's level. He could tell right away that Dracomon had been a bit caught off guard. His slanted crimson eyes had widen as he eyed him. Isamu let out two more, very short, chuckles before extending a fist towards his new partner. "I don't know about the whole damsel in distress thing but I can tell the "Melody of your Soul" is especially beautiful." He told him aloud. "Me and you are going to be great friends."

Dracomon's face turned comically cautious, his lips pouting a bit as he eyed Isamu with beady, analyzing stares. "Melody of the soul?...What's that?" He asked, his scratchy child-like voice ringing in Isamu's ears.

Isamu's lips pulled up into a charming crooked smile. It had become almost a habit when thinking about his grandfather's philosophy and by following it, his own. His balled fist came back towards his chest and he patted where his heart was twice. "Its this, Dracomon. The inside of a being's heart." Isamu closed his eyes, opening himself to the melodies around. The sound of Dracomon's personality and everyone else around him had begun swirling into a array of music. "The melody of a heart's essence..." he explained to the mini-dragon.

"Essence...?" He repeated, his eyes more awe-inspired than suspicious now. "A-Are you saying you can hear a person's heart?!" He inquired excitedly.

Isamu's eyes opened slowly as he placed his index finger to his chin. "Something like that, I guess." Was his half-hearten answer. In all honesty, he had never put too much thought into it. After he had accepted his grandfather's philosophy though, people did start to produce certain tones to him.

Dracomon had begun to make a building hum in gut, a sound that sounded like he was about to explode at any second; it caused Isamu to look down at him. "You're sooo cool!" Shouted Dracomon, louder than expected. "See Salamon, See Gaomon, my human is the coolest." The mini-dragon basically had stars in his eyes as he gazed up at Isamu.

Isamu raised back to his feet, his hand now rubbing his neck a little more firmly than before. Then suddenly he realized that Dracomon had said Gaomon. Who's Gaomon?, wondered Isamu. He looked over to his side because of a sneaking feeling, only to see another man and digimon standing there. Surprised, Isamu jolted to one foot, his hands up as a barrier and lips puckered into a perfect circle. "Ohh, when did you guys get there?"​

Julie Feng / 封菊丽

"死馬當活馬醫."
Age: 20 (November 23rd, 1993)
Gender: Female
Hometown: Miaoli City, Miaoli County, Taiwan
Crest: Perseverance
Digivice: Primary: Apricot Orange, Secondary: Earthen Brown

Appearance / 外貌

Julie stands at an average height of 5'7'' and is only slightly shorter than some of her female classmates. Her long brown-black hair sits just past her shoulders with the tips resting on her frontal deltoids. Weighing in at slightly under 59kgs, Julie is lean and muscular from her soccer training that she often partakes in as well as her cardio work on days off. When she is training, she will often tie her hair all the way back in a ponytail otherwise the majority of the time she will let it fall naturally down. As an avid cosplayer she will from time to time wear a wig instead of fully dying her hair. Her face has the typical Han-Chinese circular shape with only a slight angularity around her jaw from her Taiwanese heritage. Her dark brown eyes are also reminiscent of her Chinese heritage but like with her hair, as a cosplayer she has a tendency to wear coloured contacts. When she smiles, Julie has small dimples at either ends of her mouth and ever so slight grows feet at the edges of her eyes. She has one beauty mark on the top of her left side cheek.

When it comes to clothing, Julie isn't afraid to show a little skin; much to the demise of her parents. In summer this usually equates to halter tops and short, tartan skirts while in winter she is more likely to wear jeans and long sleeved shirts. Outside at least, inside she won't think twice about wearing a simple t-shirt and shorts around the house. However Julie's interest in Cosplay means that, on occasion, she will happily venture out into the world in very intricate and self-sewed costumes that she spends a lot of time making. She never wears the same Cosplay to a competition more than once, preferring to sew a new one from scratch. Because of this, she has many costumes hanging up in her closet, some of which she hasn't worn more than twice. Julie also has two small ear piercings; one in each earlobe. Generally not one for make-up, the only time she will wear it is when she is competing in a cosplay competition. Due to her inexperience in make-up, she relies on her close friend Jing to do it for her.​

Personality / 人格

Julie likes to be very practical, although she hates structure and routine. She likes to "go with the flow", trusting in her ability to improvise in any situation presented to her. She learns best with "hands-on" experience, rather than by studying a book as she is uncomfortable with theory. From a young age her parents often pushed her to excel in academia but despite her ability to perform well, she didn't find it particularly interesting and thus refused to try her hardest and often found it difficult at school. When it came to sports however, she would not only push herself, but push others in her team to do better. That euphoria that came from surpassing a goal and pushing her body past the limits was the one thing that truly drove her to do great. The same went for her Cosplay passion, often staying up late nights and into the early hours of the morning to finish the costume she would be working on. She would enjoy not just making the outfits, but wearing them too. When attending competitions in Taiwan and in Mainland China, she loved the spotlight people often placed her in as they commented and marvelled at her amazing craftsmanship. On the other hand, she also enjoyed meeting new people from far and wide and seeing what amazing costumes they crafted as well.

However the Cosplay world isn't as glamorous as people see it to be. Aside from the beautiful costumes, amazing make up and excitement of winning, there is also a lot of drama which Julie relishes. It is not unknown that Julie's competitiveness and enthusiasm has often led to her manipulating others or creating drama. Julie's biggest rival, Bai Xiaoyun, is often the target of her drama as the girls are both top tier in Taiwan. It is also not unknown for Julie to place more importance on immediate sensation and gratification in the short term than her duties and obligations. Often this has led to Julie skipping work or forgetting plans with friends and family. Often she tries to avoid looking at long-term consequences of her actions, preferring to act in the 'here and now'. This is most apparent in her willingness to spread gossip about herself and others in an attempt to manipulate whatever she can. By casting herself in a bad light, she can make it seem like others, most often Xiaoyun, spread such rumours and turn the light on them. While she will happily back-stab someone to push herself further or to increase the quick thrill of drama, she does not take kindly to having been back-stabbed herself. When it comes to secrets, Julie will always offer herself to confide in, but will happily use it as ammunition to add fuel to drama or to give herself the upper hand. However she is more concealing of her own secrets, and will even go to the point of making up fake secrets.


Unlike her competitive and perseverant nature, Julie is very friendly. When not in a competitive setting, she is upbeat and enthusiastic to be around others and genuinely likes almost everybody. With close friends she is friendly and warm and will happily aid anyone she considers to be a close friend, but on the other side she has no qualms manipulating them and anyone else. Once crossed however she will likely make a very strong and stubborn judgement of them and often it can digress into deep dislike for them. If Julie is under a great deal of stress she becomes overwhelmed with negatives thoughts and possibilities. As an optimistic individual who lives in the world of possibilities, negative possibilities do not sit well with her. In an effort to combat these thoughts, she often comes up with simple, overarching statements to explain away the problem. These simplistic explanations may or may not truly get to the nature of the issue, but they serve her well by allowing her to get over it. She will push herself to such extremes until this is overcome.​

History / 歷史

Ever since she was little, Julie has lived the rest of her life in Miaoli County. Her mother's parents originally lived in Sichuan but fled to Taiwan during the Communist Revolution while her father moved up from southern Taiwan to study in Taipei. While the two first met in university, it wasn't until both had graduated that they married and later had Julie. As an only child, Julie was often doted on by her parents and grandparents. There wasn't a moment that she spent alone until it came the time for her to start attending school. While at school, it didn't take time for Julie to quickly become popular around the other children as well as discovering the enjoyment of Soccer.

At the age of ten, Julie first learned to manipulate her parents and grandparents. At first it was only small things like a chocolate at the supermarket or a small keychain from a street vendor. Soon it escalated into new clothes, shoes even cellphones; anything within their parent's budget. It was around this age that she began part-taking in learning how to sew. Her grandmother used to be a popular seamstress back in the Sichuan province, so ever since she was little, Julie would sit and watch her grandmother sew beautiful cheongsam. As the years passed by and Julie's grandmother become less dexterous, Julie began taking a larger role and went from adding details to crating beautiful dresses for her mother to sell.

When she started High School, Julie continued to play soccer at an elevated level, but also continued to sew. When she was introduced to Anime by her friend Jing, she became slightly obsessed with sewing dresses and costumes that were exact replicas of the ones she saw more than she liked watching the anime. Often she would infuse elements of her Cosplay into her cheongsam designs. Julie kept up her average grades, but outside of sewing and soccer there was little time for other recreation. Two years later and after rapid health deterioration, Julie's grandfather died. Having been close with him, Julie was very upset and stopped playing soccer a while to mourn his passing. In the intervening time, Julie spent most of it sewing with her grandmother as the two consoled each other. Another couple of months and Julie returned to soccer training, putting her all into to make her grandfather proud. She felt a pang of sadness during her first game back as when she turned to the bleachers, there was no sight of her grandfather whom had been to every game she had played since she was young.

Once High School was over, Julie had no ambition to study in University. She joined a local soccer club and continued to sew cheongsam. On occasion she would head to compete in Cosplay competitions in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Malaysia. Her authenticity, sewing techniques and beautiful costumes often won her high ranking spots; much to the despise of her High School friend Xiaoyun. It was these competitions that put the two girls head to head against each other which ultimate led to their falling out. Both accuse the other of starting the rivalry with sabotage, but neither could prove it. Julie benefited most from the broken relationship and used the information Xiaoyun had confided in her to quickly vault herself to the top in the Chinese Cosplay world.

After a year of sewing, cosplaying and soccer, Julie's best friend Jing managed to convince her to join the local university in Miaoli City with her. Julie switched up from the local soccer club to join Jing on the University's female team while studying part-time as a fashion designer. Despite studying and playing soccer, Julie didn't really have any plans for her future other than working and sewing from out of her family's shop. However she still continued to push herself in soccer training and games to become the soccer player her grandfather wished her to be.

Currently, after working and saving, Julie is on her way to New York with the rest of her University's female soccer team to compete in an international soccer tournament with a sister school in New York.

Spoiler:

"Julie, pass!" The order came from her right but Julie refused to acknowledge it.

Hot on her heels were two of the opposition's players but ahead of her, the path was clear. If she were to pass the ball now then either one would easily be able to intercept it. No, she could do this. It was the third quarter; sweat was dripping into her eyes, her legs felt like they were going to give way and her breath came ragged and short. But Julie had no time to slow down and catch her breath. Exerting the last bit of energy she had left in her, Julie pulled ahead of the girls whom had been closing in on her, dribbling the ball between her feet as the goalie crouched ready to spring. She tried focussing on the goalie's movement as they shifted their weight from foot to foot; trying to time the shift but her mind was too starved. Calculating, observing, wind measurement, in the end no matter how much science you put into it, it all came down to instinct.

Feigning right, Julie shot the ball to the left aiming for the upper corner of the goal. Her vision blurred as she watched the ball leave the ground and sail towards the net. Next second she was face flat on the ground as a shoulder collided with her back. Without the energy to take the impact, the full brunt of it shoved her into the rain soaked turf. Breathing heavily, she waited a couple of moments before turning over and propping herself up on her shoulders. Standing over her with a smug look was Xiaoyun, a short, bulky girl from the opposing team.

"What the hell, you should be fouled!" Julie yelled from her position on the ground. SSSSWITSEH

"No! Don't be an idiot, that was legal." Xiaoyun crossed her arms as her fellow teammates came running to her side.

Julie felt a pair of arms wrap around from under hers, lifting Julie to her feet. "That is bullsh*t, you fouled and should be red-carded!"

"Ref, Julie is lying since she lost. I didn't touch her at all!" Suddenly Julie's teammates started laying claims that Xiaoyun was lying, yet her teammates refuted the facts.

"Quite!" The middle age lady called as she made her way over to the squabbling group of girls. "I did not see contact. No foul."

Julie's teammates stopped arguing and agreed with the referee, but not Julie. She had felt the impact, she knew that Xiaoyun was lying through her teeth yet the referee made the call. She stepped forward, brushing off the arm of Jing who asked Julie not to push it any further. Julie however, wasn't going to let this go, she wasn't going to let Xiaoyun least of all get away with his.

"Referee, wait. She hit me, I felt it. You must change your mind."

"Julie, let it go, the call was made."

"But Referee, listen." Julie continued to push it.

"No, you listen to me. There was no foul. Go back to your team." The referee's brow tightened around the bridge of her nose, she was getting annoyed at Julie's persistence but she was not ready to give up.

"Referee, I…" she was cut off.

"Bench. The game has finished for you." The referee blew her whistle signalling the beginning of the next quarter.

Julie tried to argue but everyone returned to the game leaving Julie to slog back to the bench with shoulders hunched over. It had been a tiresome game with no goals made and Julie's would have given them the lead. As she sat down at the bench she could see Xiaoyun dominating the game without her as striker meaning that their team would lose. The only reason Xiaoyun had made such a move was because Julie beat her into the finals in Guangzhou last week. Julie wouldn't admit it, but Xiaoyun's Cosplay outshone hers, both literally and figuratively. If it hadn't been for a wire short-circuiting that Julie may or may not have had a hand in creating, then Xiaoyun would have had her beat.

Regardless, sabotage and rivalry in the Cosplay world stayed there, for Xiaoyun to bring such a petty grievance into their Soccer world made Julie believe that Xiaoyun was the pathetic person she had previous thought. Despite this though, Julie decided not to react. Any idea she came up with ended in serious reprimand, and their team was already playing with one reserve. For the rest of the game she sat and watched, cringing and biting the underside of her thumb as Xiaoyun made goal after goal. In the end, they lost miserably with zero goals to three. She felt a pang of regret as her teammates made their way to the bench before heading to the changing rooms. They all seemed miserable and she felt like it was all her fault.

"We can do it!" Julie tried to cheer them on in the changing rooms, "If we train harder and keep going, we can win next week!"

"We only lost because of you, Julie." Limin muttered next to her.

"Me? I am not the team. If you had pushed yourself Xiaoyun wouldn't have taken the ball from you so many times!" Julie's face contorted in anger, how dare Limin put all the blame on her.

"You could have passed! I was there, I called out but you continued." Limin slammed the door to her locker causing silence to fall on the locker room. Her chest was heaving, "Ever since you made striker, every game has been about you! You never pass. You never play with the team. The team plays for you!" Limin poked Julie in the chest after each accusation.

"Really?" Julie smirked as the tables had now turned, "It may all be about me but at least I wasn't the one taking bribes from Xiaoyun to throw the game." She was furious now, it may have been a lie but Julie was not taking the attack lightly. Everyone took in a deep breath before looking straight at Limin as her face flushed with blood. She tried to talk but Julie simply hushed her, "Don't say anything. The best thing you could do is just leave."

Dropping her chin to her chest, Limin quickly gathered up her clothes before rushing out the door. Everyone followed her rushed exit and once she was gone, directed their gazes at Julie. She could feel their eyes burning holes in the back of her neck, but Julie had no beef with them. Rolling her shirt over her torso, she was finally back into her after-game attire; track pants and a white halter top. Slinging her training bag over her shoulder, Julie left the changing rooms with her head held high, grabbing her umbrella leaning beside the door and walking out into the downpour outside.

I also forgot to include the RP sample part of the SU. If possible, would you guys include one? It'll help Kiklion and me quite a bit when we begin judging. It can be from a recent RP or something brand new.

Does it have to be from this site? I only have like three RP posts on here. >.<

 

[Kikpanther]

@ Monster Guy No it does not! As long as it's a recent post (within the last couple months). We would prefer it if you posted the last IC post you made, but if you don't like it too much or you think there's a better one you can post it instead.

And if you haven't looked at the SU update, if you don't have an RP Sample from a site to post, you can type up a fresh one! An RP Sample shouldn't just show how well you write, but also showcase a few aspects of your characters personality. Whenever I made an RP Sample I put more effort showing off my character's traits than how pretty the prose was. So if you're planning to or have to write and RP Sample, it'd be good to keep that in mind! :)

I finished my sign-up and changed my digimon some. Hopefully it is acceptable. :3

 

[Yamagi Sosuke]

I've also finished my signup. I hope that its up to par with the others :)

@ Yamagi Great SU! Good to see everyone is finishing so quickly! I hope we don't keep you all waiting too long. I've been reading over parts of SUs here and there as I have time and I just looked over yours. Everything is well rounded and your RP Sample is definitely up to par. I only want to ask that you expand on your character's personality a little bit more. Adding quirks like Jun's pacifism (and how he feels about others because of it) is really nice and is definitely a big point! But it doesn't say much about his normal, every day personality. You've said he's opinionated, distant from others, and an aggressor (not violently of course I'm sure, but strong when helping others), but what about when he's on his own? What does he like to do and what doesn't he like to do? Does he have any interests or hobbies? Having a quirk like pacifism is a plus because it gives you something to bounce off of. Being such a big part of his life it'd direct his interests (like maybe he likes doing anti-war marches or something).

And I'd like to say that to everyone else too! Adding quirks to your characters gives them more depth (like tapping your right finger against your temple when you're thinking or being inspired by fairy tales) and makes them more personable and unique. Being an overall nice character or a mostly unpleasant character is a good base, but the personality isn't just for a general description, but to show multiple aspects of a character. And also to everyone be sure to add the negatives of a character. I see a lot positive character traits, but not a lot of things that aren't-so-great. Or a lot of things that aren't great, but not enough things that are great. Be sure to show both sides of the coin!

And for new players (or anyone who isn't completely sure about their character yet) we are looking for a cast that works well together. Not in the way that means they'll get along, but that they have a variety that bounces off each other nicely (whether that cause a lot of fights or not!). So bring on the shy or angry or just really lazy characters. We're eager to see a spectrum of personality!

We'll give more feedback as time goes on (this won't be the last!) so be sure to check back whenever you see post!

@ Albunnie: (Cute name change by the way. :P) It's looking good! As with Yamagi, I was thinking you should add some more to her personality for multiple reasons. You say she dresses in a more "rebellious fashion" and yet, her personality doesn't seem to reflect that at all. Is their something particular that she is rebelling against? Is it only because she doesn't like dresses? What is the reason? How does it reflect on her personality? My next point has to do with the death of her sister. It's definitely not a bad thing (That sounds wrong now that I think about it, sorry~) but you say she seems to have a void. This isn't at all reflected in her personality. That was her sister, her best friend. The effect of her death will easily be seen in her personality, even if she tries to hide it. Sure, she can be nice and easy-going around other people, but how is she when she is alone? Does she end up thinking about it and get depressed? Does she regret things about it? How big is that void? Expand! (Thanks for fixing your Digivolution line by the way~)

As Kiklion said, give your characters quirks! Sure, they're just characters, but they're also as real as you make them! The more your character is unique, the more they'll be memorable!

The rest of our reviews will be up soon, so don't worry if we haven't said anything yet! You guys are all doing great, keep it up!

@Kiklion and Watchman: Added a few more paragraphs to my Personality. I'm super excited to be Rping Kyeong-Jun for some reason. Hell, I think this is probably one of the best SU's I've done in awhile.

 

[Stinging Bea]

I added a bit more to mine too. Hopefully you find the additional information to be what was needed. :I

"Courage is the ability and willingness to confront fear, pain, danger, uncertainty, or intimidation. Physical courage is courage in the face of physical pain, hardship, death, or threat of death, while moral courage is the ability to act rightly in the face of popular opposition, shame, scandal, or discouragement."​

Allison Wing ♦ Age 18 ♦ Female ♦ London
crest of COURAGE

white and golden DIGIVICE​

Theme Song:
:>

Description:

Spoiler:

Standing at 5'9", Allison is a rather tall, thin girl. She never worked out much more than running, so there are no prominent muscles showing anywhere on her body. Her most visually recognizable feature is her long, slightly wavy orange hair, but she also always wears expensive, fashionable clothing that can sometimes make people look a little closer when passing by. Her face is delicate and pale, well taken care of without a trace of freckles. Something that annoys her father a bit, since he has a lot of freckles. In looks, Allison simply resembles her mother more.

At the start of this adventure, Allison wears slim black jeans and a dusty-rose colored buttoned shirt, slightly oversized because apparently it's fashion. Her father often suggests what she should wear, because of trends or some new creation of his. She's been taught to think like him when it comes to clothing, and even though it's been overbearing at times and she wishes that she didn't have to keep looking good at all times, she also doesn't really want to "dress down" and wear less trendy things at this point. That would only make her father disappointed, and she wouldn't do that on purpose. On her feet, she wears white boots with black laces. Another detail is her glasses. Allison's dark blue eyes are slightly near sighted, so she wears glasses in order to see as well as possible at a distance. She has several pairs that she switched between depending on what style she's going for, but at the start of this RP she wears black, rather thick, rectangular frames.

Personality:
Since people around her have always admired her sense of fashion and general good looks, Allison has grown to believe that that's the only thing worth seeing in her. She doesn't have any close friends, as she is a bit of an introvert and enjoys being alone rather than being around people all the time. She goes on the internet a lot and listens to music and reads a lot, and also she paints. She took extra classes in art and design in high school to make her father believe that she wants to go in his footsteps, while she really has no idea of what she wants to do in life. There is nothing she really burns for.

To others, Allison will seem quiet and reserved, but kind. She seems to worry and ponder things way too much, both over decisions she has made and about what others think of her. If she overhears someone saying something bad about her, it's devastating to her. On the other hand, if she hears good things about herself, she can feel ridiculously happy. Her everyday life is a struggle to make other people like her at the same time as the last thing she would want is to be annoying. That's why she seems so quiet and smiles without words more often than she babbles - she's afraid of saying the wrong things. In general, she also has a really hard time feeling sure about decisions she has made. She wants to spend enough time thinking it over first, and often regrets or worries about whatever she chose afterwards. On top of this, if things get really stressful, Allison is unfortunately prone to panic attacks. They manifest by her feeling like it's hard to breathe or her chest being pressed together, or a sharp pain in some part of her body coupled with an increased heart rate and panic.

Despite her dependence on others people's view on herself, Allison doesn't really trust people easily. Not in the sense that she doesn't believe what people tell her, it's just that it would take a lot for her to trust a person with something important to her. Like, her life or her money or even something as simple as giving her a ride home. She makes sure to stay relatively independent of others, again balancing this with trying to make others like her. Phew, what a battle. This stems from her overbearing father, who always showered her with fashion and gifts and decided everything for her, pretty much. She knew even in her early teenage years that she would have to get out at some point, which was why she developed this sense of not trusting others with her most important topics. She would make a life on her own one day. Like her mother had to do.

All in all, she comes across as a stylish, somewhat aloof but kind girl who smiles as soon as you look at her but puts on a worried frown sometimes when she doesn't think anyone is looking.

History:
Allison Wing was born in England and lived her first seven years in a cottage in a village outside of London. Her parents were young, her father just out of college and had fallen in love with the free spirit that became Allison's mother. After these few years of seemingly wonderful countrylife though, it became apparent that Allison's father was too much of an independent businessman to stand this kind of quaint life. The parents divorced on bad terms and the father took Allison with him to London where he started working at a designer firm, as was his dream before he met the woman he married. Meanwhile, Allison's mother couldn't keep the cottage on her own so she sold it and moved to New York to seek her fortune.

Mr Wing was very successful and became relatively wealthy. He did everything he could to ensure that Allison was a well dressed child and gave her opportunities to star as a model in his collections. But Allison felt contained rather than free, despite their pleasant financial situation. His father met new women every now and then but never remarried, and Allison became a teenager who wasn't sure of who she was or what her role in the world should be. She only met her mother a few times over the years, and now it had been long since, but Allison remembered her warmly and sometimes wondered what had happened if she had gone with her to America instead of staying in London with her father. Of course there had been no question about it at the time of the divorce; Mrs Wing didn't have a job or financial capability of sustaining a child on her own, while Mr Wing easily would.

But upon turning 18, Allison did the most courageous thing she ever had done. Maybe the only courageous thing she ever had done. She moved out against her father's wishes. She couldn't live like this anymore. Luckily, her father cared too much about her to freeze her bank account, so she could afford a flight to New York, with the intention of finding her lost mother. For the first time in a long while, Allison felt free. But she also felt very guilty for leaving her father, who had never really done her any wrong. Rather, he had spoiled her and given her anything she could wish for. Was she being too selfish in leaving?

When the adventure starts, Allison is staying a hotel on Manhattan, still not having found her mother.

Gazimon ♦ Male
the INNER STRUGGLE digimon​

Personality:
Gazimon is in ways the opposite of Allison, in terms of personality. He is honest and rash and impatient. What they do have in common though, is that they are deep down insecure beings who are never really completely sure about a decision they make. When they are together, they help each other judge every uncertain move they make, together more or less subconsciously working towards becoming more confident and courageous souls.

When Gazimon evolves into Champion, he usually does it with a bold, righteous intention. As such, Angemon keeps the rash and honest traits but acts with more justice and bravery than his Rookie form. If he needs to evolve further though, he usually does it because he feels that his strength as an angel isn't enough, and so he turns into the demon-like NeoDevimon who is relentless and stops at nothing to reach his goal. He is not evil in his Ultimate form, he just somewhat drops the righteous and kind barriers that define him as Angemon. If he ever comes to terms with his varying evolution forms and accepts that he simply is what he is - a creature with many faces that are all driven by courage - he will be able to evolve into the wiser Mega Seraphimon.

Unique Traits:
Allison's Gazimon has slightly grayer fur than regular Gazimons, and instead of red the irises of his eyes are a golden shade.

The idea is that this digimon sways back and forth between being somewhat demon-like and angel-like, really putting Allison's courage to the test. In one situation he might choose to stay Angemon instead of evolving into NeoDevimon just because he doesn't want the mindset that comes with NeoDevimon. I never really got to try this concept in another digimon RP so I would love it now!
