    Long story short:
    Welcome to the Counter Terrorist Unit of Kanto (CTU for short). This is where terrifying plots have been found out, where criminals have been brought after being arrested, where morality is often questioned, where most believe the ends justify the means, where justice doesn't always prevail, where you work and where thousands of heartbreaking, dramatic stories have taken place. What follows is one of these stories.

    The time is 2:00 in the morning when you receive a call from your director, requesting you to get up and go to CTU's headquarters immediately. The reason for the wake-up call isn't given, but as soon as you get there, it is revealed that a terrorist called Joni Trabbioni has threatened to contaminate the waters of Cinnabar Island with a bacterial virus that will render all life within the sea divided between Cinnabar Island, Pallet Town and Fuschia City dead. He has listed a set of demands that he wants to be complied with, and has given the government an hour to come up with a response. This means that you have an hour to attempt to prevent the terrorist attack from taking place. This isn't a lot of time and you're already deprived of sleep, but the intensity factor rises as soon as you realise the threat Kanto is facing.

    Rules:
    Like Fox's hit television show, 24, events in this roleplay occur in real time. This means that if a post starts at 3:00 and ends at 3:07, the next post will commence at the time of 3:07 and so on. However, if you wish to make things really complicated, you can make two scenes happen at the same time, so your post and the post before are both 3:00 to 3:07. If you want to pull that off though, you're going to have to make sure there isn't any continuity errors. We want to make this as accurate as possible.

    No posts can be longer than the duration of seven minutes. A lot can happen in one minute; we don't need to go overboard.

    This roleplay starts at 3:00 and goes until 3:00 the next day. I assure you this sounds much easier than it is.

    I have the feeling we'll need to contact each other a lot to keep this roleplay going, so if you feel like sending me and the rest of the crew a VM with your MSN address, that'd be cool.

    And all the usual rules too, like no godmodding and whatnot.

    Sign-Up Application Form:
    Name: I know how difficult this must be, take as long as you want.

    Age: Oh, even harder! Let's see, you're working and we assume you have some sort of qualification, so your age is around 22 – 50 or so. Questions or feel like breaking this rule for the hell of it? Contact me.

    Gender: Micheal Jackson is not an answer.

    Biography: Just a short history of your character, where he/she was born, where he/she went to school, how he/she ended up working for CTU.

    Personality: How your character thinks and feels. Try not ending up as a clone of Jack Bauer.

    Appearance: A picture isn't acceptable.

    Position: What job does your character have at CTU? Second in command, third in command, field agent, desk agent, janitor, technical helper? Endless possibilities.

    Of course, you're allowed to have up to three Pokemon as well, assuming your team doesn't consist of powerhouses such as Tyranitar and Dragonite.

    Pokemon: Just the name and gender.

    Nickname: Self-Explanatory.

    How he/she was obtained: Four to five lines, nothing big.

    It's going to be the longest day of your life.

    Name: Wesley ("Wes") Meyers

    Age: 32

    Gender: Male

    Biography:
    Originary from Azalea Town, and the fourth of five brothers, he moved to Olivine with his family and spent childhood and collegue there, where he god good math and history grades. He later took geopolitics and Pokémon biometry courses while his siblings dedicated to exploration, arts and healthcare.

    He was good interpreting the patterns in communication of flying-type Pokémon, with help of his Venomoth, which eventually earned some fame by assisting S&R operations in the area surrounding the Whirl Island during the years the weather grew worse. During that time, he tried the field of communications between water-type Pokémon, without much success.

    Wes was recruited by the Johto Coast Guard, worked as comm operator and then as counselor for the Pokémon Mail Office.

    Four years later he was recommended for the Johto CTU. He took the position of Field Analyst, watching the behaviour of mail/attachment Pokémon for precautonary control of cartel and rebel groups. In order to better prepare himself for an eventual promotion to Head of Communications, he requested a temporary transfer to the Kanto CTU as a means of gaining experience: he was selected for an intelligence trade program between the two regions. Once in Kanto he spent the next three months working on improving the draft for the new Command-over-Pidgeot-Carrier emergency protocol and some time helping local agents sort out chatter between bug-type Pokémon which suggested a man-made threat. Incapable of getting more evidence, his supervisor's team was made to drop the extra assignement and return to the development of the CoPC Protocol which was already two months delayed.

    It is during one of these nights, when Wes and Venomoth have just left office after some hours of training the agency Pidgeot to hide messages, when he is called back to the Domestic Unit.

    Personality:
    Wes is a responsible person, who is respectful to his duties, but who doesn't forget where he came from and what other things he can be doing at a given time. He won't exert himself too much in the line of duty, unless the situation merits it, and even then he will expect quite a good reward.

    He is also very close to his family and likes to visit home at Olivine when he has the chance; however his recent transfer to the Kanto CTU has delayed family reunions. He does not make much of a big deal about this, as he prefers to think that once he has a more important position he will have more and better assistance during tranquil times to both help his family and be with them.

    Wes is also very fond of nighttime, which he uses to listen to pop music when there is nothing more urgent on his schedule. He also likes warm open places, as well as the sea, all with his tendency to fall sick at the first spring allergy.

    Appearance:
    Well built and a bit on the chubby side (as most comm analysts can get), with pale skin, big, cold hands, and a birthmark in his left wrist, which all of his male siblings have. His hazel eyes and thin eyebrows, notorious because of the absence of beard or moustache and his military-style haircut, make him easy to spot.

    During work hours he wears mostly cassual office attire, with predominant blue and white colours for the upper body, with the particular exception of a violet tie which matches his Venomoth's colouration. His shirt has a particularily wde heart pocket where he keeps his PDA as well as some pills to help him his allergies.

    Position:
    Communication Protocols Liaison from Johto CTU.

    His intended task under this possition is to facilitate the sharing of scientific intelligence between the Johto and Kanto CTU for the development of a new emergency communications protocol. Due to pre-CTU field experience he is sometimes asked to provide field assistance in the control of Pokémon used for interregional trade.

    Pokémon #1
    Pokemon: Venomoth, female
    Nickname: Coat
    A Pokémon he has had since he was a child. She was caught at Ilex Forest and trained to communicate to her trainer and reveal him the location of lost objects, hidden food, and the such. Uses flight patterns and soft cried to communicate Wes basic movement suggestions such as "forwards", "crunch" or "here". Evolved during a night watch on Cianwood. Is currently under training for the move Substitute.

    Pokémon #2
    Pokemon: Quagsire, female
    Nickname: "Agent" Keloni
    A leasing from the Johto CTU Field Operations to assist him in cold or rocky areas where he may be at operational disadvantage if he has to command Venomoth. Trained to answer to commands issued only by Johto CTU officers, which has led to some minor troubles when she won't share food with other Pokémon at the domestic office.

    The Guardian and solovino are both accepted. Great job, guys.

    Unfortunately for jackblaze, however, you are denied due to a lot of simple grammar errors in your character application. If you wish to re-write it to prove that your grammar is better than it appears to be, for all means do, but for now you're not part of this roleplay.

    I'll finish off my SU later tonight, tomorrow or at the weekend (I'm not sure seeing as I have tests), but we'll definitely get this started before Monday.

    25 CHARACTER LIMIT DOES NOT APPLY TO ME.

    looks good :) *finishes later >.>*


    Name:
    Jase *Last Name*

    Age: 22, seeing that is as young as i can gom but 19 if possible.

    Gender: M

    Biography: Just a short history of your character, where he/she was born, where he/she went to school, how he/she ended up working for CTU.

    Personality: How your character thinks and feels. Try not ending up as a clone of Jack Bauer.

    Appearance: A picture isn't acceptable.

    Position: Jase is a Janitor. Because the CTU is a 24 hour establishment, they have at least one person there all night long. Jase isn't one of those people. He just fell asleep in the storage cupboard and woke up andterhe was hit by a paint can; people running through the corridor woke him up.

    Pokemon: A male Smeargle

    Nickname: "Mop".

    How he/she was obtained: The only time that Jase's family went on vacation was to the Hoenn Battle Frontier. While he and his brothers were axploring the beach and natural area, he came across an ostracised Smeargle, who didn't ave a natural "paint" that secreted from its tail. He took it in, smuggling it home in a pokeball he stole from the PokeMart. When he got home, he was wonderfully surprised that his mother took a likeing to it - because it didn't have a "paint" it would dip its tail in water and mop the floors, by its own accord, and he was allowed to keep him.
     
    Neiteio, you're accepted. A grand sign-up indeed.

    Yuoaman and monarc, you two are pending. The first for obvious reasons, monarc, you're pending because you didn't fill in Appearance and I'm seeing a lot of simple grammatical errors.

    And here's mine. I told you all I'd get it done someday!

    Name: Mike Vertigo.

    Age: Thirty-two.

    Gender: Male.

    Biography: Born in Viridian City, Mike first showed signs of being devious and quick-thinking when he just six years of age. His class was learning about evolution (which was previously outlawed by the government because they didn't believe in teacher common sense, but that was amended six years before Mike started school) and his teacher's marker just just ran out of ink. Miss Withers obviously figured the children were too incompetent to run a simple errand, so she decided to do it herself. The typical trip to the office was two minutes, and she had left her car keys on her desk. Mike wasn't charged for joyriding, but his family did end up having to pay Amelia Withers back for damages and he was grounded for a very long time.

    Moving along, he graduated from Celadon University with top notch credidentials in Law, Computer Programming and Psychology. While he was studying in college, he needed money to pay for his tuition, and so managed to get a four day shift as a janitor at the Counter Terrorist Unit. After he graduated, he decided to stay with his job until he found somewhere with better pay. Never did he think he'd be on the computer analysis team for CTU, but when he was on his break during his morning shift one day, he picked up the paper and noticed the advertisement. The wages looked decent so he decided to ask for a job interview. He was rewarded.

    Fast forward eight years and Mike becomes director of the Kanto Terrorist Unit after proving himself of being capable of a lot of things during constant times of crisis. Unfortunately, this was not a welcomed promotion for him, as he was succeeding a good friend of his, Leo Travoy. If Leo had quit, that would've been fine, but no, Mike was only getting this spot because he was second-in-command. Leo had been gunned down in an ambush, and Mike's wanted revenge for the killing ever since. The problem is, no one knows who killed him.

    Fast forward another two years and we reach today. Mike's seen a lot of things in his time, but nothing will ever compare to the next twenty-four hours.

    Personality: Mike is the sort of guy who acts first and asks questions later. You threaten him, he's not going to think about whether you're just messing with him, he's going to punch you. He's quite sharp, constantly taking in information about everything around him. Although he can be quite devious and he looks out for number one the majority of the time, the guy doesn't work in CTU just for the money. He genuinely believes in saving the lives of innocent people, which is just about his only redeeming factor when you think about it. People don't look at Mike as a friend, just as someone who works with them. Not that he's a loner, he's just too unpredictable to risk being a friend with.

    Appearance: He stands tall when his posture isn't slumped, which is about one minute per day. His jet black hair can often be seen gelled up at the fringe, with one strand left hanging. Dark green eyes tend to give him a calm look, but he'd rather possess a light blue shade. To him, that'd look awesome. He's been described as being as white as a ghost. While he believes this to be a bit of an exaggeration, it's not far from the truth. His workmates have been thinking of buying him a tanning bed for his next birthday. Mike can often be found in a polo shirt of some vibrant colour and jeans, or if he's in a meeting with on of the crime directors, a suit.

    Position: Director/First in command.

    Pokemon: Wartortle.

    Nickname: Jerry.

    How he/she was obtained: Jerry was caught by Mike's brother, Andy, when Mike was five years old. After Mike announced his desire to not have anything to do with Pokémon when he grew up, Andy did everything to make Mike take back such horrible words, including giving him a free Pokémon to give him an advantage on his journey. While Mike never did go on that journey, he did feel a strong connection to Jerry and they haven't been separated from each other since.
