If you're wondering why I've revamped this thread, I just want this to be more than an Event Hub. xD We'll get more active. o: |

Oh yeah, I read it in skype. :'D I'm a-okay with it! That's awesome! I promise to get more active too. (Especially on Skype. xD) |

...What should our towns & cities be like? We should develop names and a general structure for them. o: |
Quote:
1.) A town where they practice traditions, I don't know what kind of traditions but traditions that you can't practice at different towns since this particular town has more of a knowledge and proper guidance of said traditions. Or else it'll be more difficult. 2.) A town that is known to where they conduct festivals and the likes, where you can find all sorts of vendors. All sorts of entertainment can be found there. 3.) A town that is more known to harvest all kinds of fruits, vegetables, etc.. Known for trading and farming. 4.) A town where there are sets of battle shops, known to train harder than normal, martial arts and all the kinds. 5.) A town known for an famous inn, there's shrines to visit and pay respect to. A town where many travelers visit to rest and relax. I'm still thinking of some ideas, maybe add a few more or fuse two of the suggested towns together or some sort. Can't think of names yet. xD |
bringing back Shi Bao as the Queen's Right Hand/Economic Advisor; will pull details up later!
& obvs market towns are my jam |
Shi Bao TiánEconomic Advisor to Queen Lynn Shi Bao was born into the extended Royal Family of Yōko. Given a fast-paced and extensive education suitable to her status, she quickly found her interests piqued by the economics of the region. On completing her standard education, she was then invited to join the Royal Economists, initially as an apprentice. She moved up through the ranks over a few years and when the Economic Advisor died, she was chosen to take his place. Shi Bao is twenty years old with dark hair and eyes. She is small in stature but not slim. She has never been outside of the palace grounds. She is okay with technology, but only really knows enough to do what she needs to do. She has a Aurian e-pal named Harper. Though not truly a trainer, she cares for two Pokemon: a Glaceon gifted to her as an Eevee upon her graduation and a Froslass, gifted to her as a Snorunt by Harper. Her relationship with the Head Inquisitor is a topic of much speculation. |

I'm thinking of doing a piece or side event celebrating the New Year; like a Chinese New Year of sorts. Then, an introduction to the main "villain" so to speak. Any thoughts? o: Perhaps this can be transitioned with the other regions too, to start communication with them. |
Looks interesting. I'll join.
Name: Logan, unless I need to go with mudkip. Which Symbol: Water! Pokémon: (I'm assuming we can't use legends?) http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/8/8e/230MS.pnghttp://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/e/e2/319MS.pnghttp://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/8/89/184MS.png http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/a/a0/130MS.png http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/b/be/134MS.png http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/5/5a/350MS.png Additional Details: Likes almost all pokemon, but is very interested in the sheer number of water types and their lifestyles. |
Towns:
an isolated town where they do not particularly heed the queen and have a very different local culture a town famous for its winter sports and festivals a dual town where on one side of the river everything is perfectly and precisely zen-styled and the people get offended if travelers even accidentally mess with their intricate pattens PLUS their cross-river neighbors who maintain that zen reflects the world and that every change in their gardens is meaningful (their side is messy at a casual glance) a scholarly town, full of historical records and written knowledge. home of the best schools in the region outside of the Palace. & new year thing: CAN IT BE LIKE THE END OF MULAN |
I have been thinking of joining a region for a while and really like this one. I’m completely new to this so I will try my best; I’ve been thinking of what to write since yesterday haha.
Name: Luke Trainer Class: Beginning Trainer Pokémon: (feel free to use whichever Pokémon you like, except legendaries) http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/7/76/197MS.png http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/0/0f/025MS.png http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/c/c0/163MS.png http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/c/cf/092MS.png Additional Details: Luke is a 12 year old kid setting out on his Pokemon journey. Orphaned as a child he has no recollection of his parents and has lived in the woods for many years where he stumbled across an Eevee at an early age. Luke did not know much about Pokemon, but one day as he was crying and he remembered the Evee looking at him. The Eevee would then become his friend, and would end up taking care of Luke. Luke and the Eevee would grow up together, and through friendship the Eevee would evolve into an Umbreon. Throughout his journey Luke came across a Pikachu, Ghastly and Hoot-hoot. Luke had no Pokeballs and did not catch these Pokemon; they simply liked Luke and were drawn to him. Luke does not know why, and does not know why everything seems so dark around him. Umbreon resonates a dark aura, but has always brought good luck to Luke. Ha has had a crappy life, but is an ambitious kid. He hopes one day to become the ultimate Pokemon master and to bring new ideas to the Pokemon world. Luke had been wondering in the forest for all of his life and decided to start his adventure. Right before he walked out of the forest, he noticed the most beautiful Cherry blossom trees he had ever seen. Luke was ecstatic, he did not know it yet but he would enter the Yoko region. Picture to come in the future. I hope I did it right. So uh, do we like talk abut suggestions of towns then make the world like that? |
Name: Jeff Stareen
Trainer Class: Veteran Pokémon: http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/b/bb/471MS.png http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/1/1a/107MS.png http://cdn.bulbagarden.net/upload/3/33/428MS.png Additional Details: After years of doing the same old handiwork of carpentry, Jeff has realized he doesn't want to live any longer without some excitement in his life. Bringing along his trusty sidekick Pokemon, he looks towards traveling the region and living out his dream of being a worldclass trainer in the Yoko region. |
Name: Kiri Dietrich
Trainer Class: Lass? She doesn't really have a specialty. Pokémon: http://www.serebii.net/xy/pokemon/015.png http://www.serebii.net/xy/pokemon/478.png http://www.serebii.net/xy/pokemon/676.pngAll beloved Pokemon since childhood, and she's raised them herself. Beedrill is the ace. Additional Details: A young girl, 16 years of age. She left her quiet mountainside town search for bigger and better opportunities in the Yōko Region. Though her parents are deeply worried because she is flighty and often gets herself into trouble, they are confident that her strong and loyal Pokemon will protect her. She has many motivations for leaving, from wanting to better herself as a person and trainer, as well as wanting to help her Froslass meet more of her species. |

Yōko Updates & News #1Introducing some towns! This is what I've come up with so far (with some good advice from Anna and sarcasm!) if you guys have any thing to add, or if there are any other ideas for these towns/cities, feel free to speak up! I only made up about half of them so far, so, there are definitely room for more ideas: Arieshu City Spoiler:
A City widely known for tourism and culture. This is the main city for people coming into the region for the first time. Here, the people do not particularly heed the queen but have a very different local culture in a more modernized society. Only the most active and energetic citzens of Yōko come here. Taurusville Town Spoiler:
A scholarly city, home of the best schools outside of the palace. This town is also widely known for it's art, and it's benevolent society. The most logical, and diligent residents call home here, with more people all over gaining acceptance to these schools. Gemibrough Town Spoiler:
This a dual town where everything is decided by a peaceful, zen river. On one side, the town appreciates stability and gets offended by anyone who would dare to disrupt the peace and stability of their town. On the other side of the river, the town abolishes order, where they believe every change is meaningful to life. Cancoro Town Spoiler:
A smaller town more widely known for it's hospitality and good food. Many travelers visit and relax here because of it's famous inn, and a shrine to pay respects for good fortunes ahead of them. Leoshin City Spoiler:
Leoshin, home to the royal palace, and the Queen. This city also is widely known for the best festivals it creates with the citizens there, and it's especially known for their love of Eevee and the bond it shares with the citizens. **Introducing... The Round Table! The Round Table is a small event where we, as characters come together to discuss our political, economic, and other important matters in Yoko. The Queen is of course attending, and any royal member of the court, as well as battle master are allowed to bring up new topics. Anyone else is allowed to attend, and speak up if there are any concerns, or suggestions. The first Round Table meeting is planned Friday January 8th and will go on through the weekend or so, where we'll be discussing: ~ Where will the battle masters be hosting their "dojos" in ~ How we will conduct the New Year Festival ~ How will our cities & towns conducted in Virgoville, Librakun, Scorpian, Saggitariuum, Capriku, Aquarius, and Pischaul ~ A very important matter that can threaten the peace (possible storyline/plot alert!) So I hope you guys will attend! ^^ |
Omg this is so exciting!! One question, what time Friday do you think the meeting will be because I'll be traveling most of the day until the evening. But if we use Skype for the meeting then I can just use mobile.

Oh okay, then that'll be perfect! ^^
|
omg... im totally gonna make a Saann Ambassador to Yoko just because our cities are named after zodiac signs :D
|
OOC: Should be exciting! Better start brainstorming for this! Jeff has things to say! (If he's not busy sleeping)
|
So I wasn't able to participate in this Roundtable due to being very ill for the majority of the weekend and it looks like it kind of fell through this time. Shall we try for this Friday, the 15th? In the meantime, we can certainly use the thread for brainstorming topic ideas- just don't go into too many details before the official beginning, right?
|
Quote:
And yes, you can do that~ |
Is it alright if I join with my old character?
I'll try and dig her up if needed. |

We should probably think about what we're going to discuss at Roundtable at some point I suppose. :P Put more depth into some of the towns maybe? Since we're in-character we can, well, actually just make up minor conflicts/situations that should be the kind of thing discussed at such a conference. Like oh, this farming town is not supplying its quota, why is this? Or whatever. Something more interesting, probably. But continued town development via situational stuff.

Quote from before:
Quote:
|
How do you mean our structure? Like how exactly our government works? Or how our towns work relative to each other and the capital? Or even how the local town governments work? OR ALL OF IT SHAWN
|
Quote:
We can't hold back, now~! |
Maybe we should put together a breakdown of our agenda, then, like--
+ Battle Master Dojo Locations (Masters v important to their towns) + Government: - Central Government (Capitol and relation to other regions) - Local Government (how individual towns will be run; Battle Master input highly valued!!) - Infrastructure & Communications (relationships between towns and capitol) + New Year's Festivities - Location - Proceedings - Events + DRAMA |
Is everyone ready for the Round Table! I shall make the post, momentarily!
|
I'll do my best to help out! I'll be a little busy plus I don't understand this stuff much but I'll try to! :)
|
Crap, I think I accidentally missed the first Round Table meeting last week but I will definitely be there this weekend and am excited! ^^

The Round TableThe royal hall was prestigious, glistering with the finest decoration and feature. A large, black, wooden table staff right in the hall, covered with red table cloth, and had black Sutton chairs all around it. Everyone in attendance were all in their seats in a small space behind the main hall, here to observe and give opinions when needed. The court and other members of the group slowly started to occupy seats to the table, as the place got more filled. Soon the court was asked to be filled with silence, as the queen eventually made her way to her seat on the front of the table, being able to face everyone all at once. "For all those attending, welcome to the Round Table," The Queen greeted in a loud, firm voice so that the crowd could hear it too. "We have developed this room in order to discuss our agenda of Yoko, as well as the possible dangers it can face. Please welcome my royal court, the battle masters, as well as the chosen legislators for this event, as they will officially join in the discussion. Any citizen is allowed to raise their hand in case they have something to say, but please be patient until we call upon you." She finally took her seat, brushing her long hair from her face as it got tangled in the process. "Now then, let's begin. Our first business, is our towns. Because they are fairly new, developed towns and cities, Virgoville, Librakun, Scorpian, Saggitariuum, Capriku, Aquarius, and Pischaul in general need a way to contain their economic and political structure. Does anyone have any ideas on what sort of towns and cities they should be in Yoko?" |
Hey, I have a question. I had a day off from school today because of school and I had come up with some ideas but before I post anything I was wondering, are these all the towns we have so far:
Spoiler:
Also, I have an idea that Arieshu City to Leoshin City are the older cities whereas Virgoville to Pischal are newer developing cities? |
Quote:
And hm, sure that's an idea. Do you have any specifics in mind? o: |
