    The RPT Secret Santa!
    [PokeCommunity.com] The RPT Secret Santa! [Reveal your characters!]


    Welcome!

    ​

    <LINK TO THE SUs>
    <LINK TO THE IC THREAD>

    It's December, the holidayiest month of the year! And here, in our cosy little roleplaying theatre, we like to celebrate that. This December, we've decided to celebrate by spreading joy to each other, by having a secret santa! Pull a name from the hat, and hang your stockings on the chimney!

    The roleplay

    The RPT Secret Santa will be a roleplay where we make characters for each other instead of ourselves. All those who sign up will be put into a big basket, and everybody gets a random name, for who they will get to design a character. These characters can be everything! From Pokemon, to superheroes, to kangaroo demons from the deepest pits of hell.

    Once the characters are all in, the roleplay can start. Our characters will serve as Santa's little helpers, bringing presents to the people. These won't be the easiest addresses, though. Maybe the house doesn't have a chimney, or the people have yet to go to sleep. Or worse, maybe it's a castle protected by a murderous dragon with a furious bloodlust. A couple of scenarios will be presented for the players to act out, but they're free to start their own toy-delivery shenanigans as well.

    This roleplay will only last for a fairly short time period. A point system will be used to reward people for every IC post made, which will be tallied up at the end, and emblems will be rewarded depending on how many points get scored. The GMs will keep score, so you don't need to concern yourself with them at all.
    Points are rewarded according to the following system:

    Single post – 1 Point. A single post will get you one point.
    Joint Post – 1 Point + 2 points per player. A joint post will get everybody involved one point, and we'll even add 2 points per participant onto that!
    Delivering a present – 2 pointsDelivering your assigned presents will give you two points, but only if the word count of your posts exceeds 500 words. You're free to pick another address afterwards, and get these points again.
    Creativity bonus – 4 points. If you do something incredibly cool with your situation, you will be given a grand 4 points extra. These you can earn for every single post you make!

    Players will receive an emblem for reaching:

    Okay, this looks cool. And doable, maybe, even for me. xD

    Username:     under_score

    Wishlist: Something wacky, maybe non-human/non-humanoid (since I haven't played any non-humans other than Pokemon before, I think. xD). The weirder the better~ Other than that, go for it. ^^

    Don'ts: Nobody too unhappy please! ^^

    Santa's Big Helper: No
     
    Username: Pikachu
    Wishlist: Something human, actually. But it can be any age and gender and background!
    Don'ts: Depressed chars. I can't deal with super emo dark chars ;;
    Santa's Big Helper: i need to say yes here, don't i

    And don't worry, me and Ice will split the duty of assigning secret santas, so we won't know who made our chars c:
     
    Username: Ice

    Wishlist: Suprise me!

    Don'ts: No overly sexual character. No bidoofs pls.

    Santa's Big Helper: Yes. All would be lost if I didn't say yes, wouldn't it?

    As mentioned above, [tier=t2]Pikachu[/tier] and I will divide up the names so even we won't know who made our character.

    Username: Shak

    Wishlist: Give me some creative character quirks to work with...please

    Don'ts: Not too worried really

    Santa's Big Helper: Sure thing :)
     
    IT WAS ALL MY IDEA

    I kid. RP Secret Santa is a-go-go, so let's a-go-go!

    Username: Disclosed.

    Wishlist: I'd like to play a humanoid, preferably with supernatural abilities of some sort so I can funk with the system, but otherwise go wild!

    Don'ts: You shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth, so I'll try to work with anything.

    Santa's Big Helper: Because I want extra presents this year I'm just so generous, yes.
     
    Username: Why is this even a relevant information slot on the forums? Look slightly to the left or up a little. Dweeb.

    Wishlist: Something quirky and light-hearted. Easily irritated would be a great quirk, but anything along those lines is cool

    Donts: Nothing depressing or emo or yuck. It's a Christmas RP for goodness sakes, make it FUN XD

    Santas BIG Helper?: Sure, why not. I'll help out however I can ^^

    It's so I can just copy what people put behind username instead of me accidently clicking their name and being taken to their profile.
     
    Username: Supreme Overlord Bidoof

    Wishlist: Preferably human-ish. I enjoy playing character with powers, too. :)

    Don'ts: Nothing overly profane. No hating bidoofs either

    Santa's Big Helper: Yes.
     
    Username: Crazy Milotic Lady

    Wishlist: I like humans with supernatural powers. Or some form of paranormal powers. :3

    Don'ts: Overly sexual. I mean I'd do a murderous character but I can't deal with a sexual character. Then again, it's a Christmas RP so there won't be murderous characters, but you get the point.

    Santa's Big Helper: No. :T
     
    Username: BluCat

    Wishlist: Pokemon

    Don'ts: Immodest clothing or inappropriate personalities/etc.

    Santa's Big Helper: Yes
     
    Username: Fort PokePower

    Wishlist:
    -Something inhuman preferred, even better if it's draconic or animalistic
    -A speedy character would be a plus, not a big fan of slow-pokes

    Don'ts: Eh, anything goes for me really.

    Santa's Big Helper: No

    You just made it 98% likely that you'll get a char named Ryan.

    Nah, this shouldn't be a worry :p If you put something on your don't list, the other person isn't supposed to use it. It's so that people don't have to play things they heavily dislike. Having said that, there are multiple other spellings of Ryan, those are totally allowed!
