SIGN UPS ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED
Plot
This island is somewhat scary, especially to the average person who is used to living in a nice, warm home and not being out in the wilderness. It's thickly wooded, with beaches all around the coasts. It's full of wild Pokemon. The temperature is about the only thing pleasant about it, staying at around 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit consistently, except for the nighttime where it gets rather chilly.
Once they realize the reality of the situation, and that they aren't going to be safe at home anytime soon, life won't be the same. Whatever they held near and dear to them won't matter anymore. At this point, they'll have one goal: to survive. All they'll have is their Pokemon and each other.
Objective
The objective of this roleplay is really up to you. Your character will be stranded on an island with 5 other teenagers. Make the most of it, whatever that means.
Rules
1. Avoid controlling other people's characters without their consent. If you've gotten their permission, then go for it, but otherwise, avoid it if at all possible. If you must, that's fine, but keep the control to a minimum and make sure to reference their character's profile to keep in character. As I said, if you can get permission from someone before controlling their character, then knock yourself out. Just stay in character.
2. If you want to add a major plot twist in the story, please check with me prior.
3. Be respectful to other role players.
4. Be reasonable and realistic. Your character won't succeed at everything.
5. Some mature language is allowed, but for the sake of keeping with the rules of PC, avoid it, and censor it if you must use it using asterisks. (f*ck, sh*t, etc.)
6. Mild violence is allowed, but make sure it doesn't get too gory or morbid.
7. Romance/sexual themes are allowed, but once again, for the sake of keeping with the overall rules of this website, don't overdo it. Don't describe sexual content in great detail, and avoid it if possible. Romance that doesn't involve too many sexual themes is completely fine, and even encouraged because it can add interesting substance to a story.
8. Stay fairly active. I understand that everyone may have commitments that will cause them to be busy, but try to stay with the others. If you feel like you'll be gone for a while, let me know. I will likely keep your character in the story and let others control them on your behalf.
9. Use the best English you can, and spell check. Typos are understandable, in fact I make them all the time, but do your best to keep your post as perfect as possible with the English. Also make sure your posts are fairly detailed and long enough for the rules.
10. If you have any questions, don't hesitate the contact me.
(Put polka dots in your sign up sheet if you read the rules, in the other section. I won't necessarily deny you if you don't, but it'll give you brownie points.)
Sign up sheet
Go in as much detail as possible. Leave a good first impression. I will most likely take 6 sign ups.
Name: Include first and last. Middle name is nice, but optional.
Gender: I would prefer the gender ratio to be fairly even, if possible. If you see a lot of people signing up as one gender, perhaps sign up as the other?
Age: 15-18 is my preferred age range. If you go outside it, I will possibly still accept you, but that's my preference.
Personality: Go into as much detail as possible. What are your character's likes and dislikes? Strengths? Weaknesses? As I said, detail is the way to go, and please, make a balanced characters with a reasonable amount of flaws and strengths.
Appearance: What is your character's hair/eye color? (Remember that because of how the Pokemon universe is and with people like James, they can be an otherwise unnatural color) Hair style? Figure? Clothes? Like with personality, go into as much detail as you can. Paint a mental picture.
History: Give me some back story to your character. Detail will help here, but it doesn't HAVE to be super detailed. Just somewhat. Keep your character's back story reasonable and believable.
Interested in romance?: In case romance comes up, this category is a helpful reference. Is your character interested in romance or not? And what's your character's orientation? (straight, homosexual, bisexual, or maybe asexual?)
Other: Anything else?
Pokemon: You may have up to 3. Do the following for each:
Species: Simply put. Try to avoid having any Pokemon that are too rare.
Nickname: Nicknames are encouraged to distinguish your Pokemon from the others.
Gender: If applicable.
Nature: https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Nature Pick from these to help distinguish your Pokemon's personality.
Characteristic: https://pokemondb.net/mechanics/hidden Pick from these to help distinguish your Pokemon's personality further.
Plot
A boat leaves the port. It's full of people waiting to have a pleasant vacation. They expected to have a nice cruise. Little do they know, that's far from what was going to happen.
At first, the cruise starts out relaxing and fun. However, things take a turn for the worst when the captain of the ship accidentally crashes into some large, pointy rocks at sea.
As the sink was sinking, everyone panicked. Some made it to their lifeboats, but many did not. Many people and their Pokemon died that day. However, 6 teenagers, along with their Pokemon, lucked out. They washed up on an island nearby where the ship crashed, soon to wake up and realize what happened.
