Cries from the Other Side [PG-13] (Sign-Ups Open)

[~Wind~]

Could I reserve Jirachi?
All my fave legends you've put as not available, Jirachi is my second fave out of Availibles.
(Michaela got the Latis)

 

[MichaelaTheUchiha]

My SU is always crap. D= You can ask Ichirio and Wind, but I am done. Let me know if I need to add/delete/explain anything. x3

Edit: Poor Wind. This is why I posted first. xP

Then again...I could have used Darkrai...o.0 Nah, I want Miharu to be a psychic and dragon trainer. x3

 

[Fuyu]

Wind you are reserved. Michaela you are accepted. Just give me a couple hours before it's on the official first post. I've seen worse SUs on other sites. You are far from terrible.

 

[Garet]

(I wish I could jump like that.) (Wish granted!)

Work in progress. Complete now.

Name: Jonathan E. Winchester

Age: 18 years
Gender: Male

Appearance: Standing straight up, Jonathan is about 5'4" and weighs about 130 pounds. His straight, brown hair is a few inches long; a small "wing" has been present in the back-right of his hair as he grew up. Jonathan's eyes are hazel-colored. He's somewhat tanned from time spent working in the yard of his family's home. He isn't a total weakling, but he'd have a ways to go if he were to be as strong as his oldest brother. There is a faint burn-scar on the back of his left wrist from the time when he held it against the side of a hot wood-stove as a five-year-old.
If found anywhere but at home, Jonathan tends to be wearing his favorite coat. It has somewhat-thicker gray padding on the shoulders and is blue on the outside and black on the inside, with a completely black hood. In addition to the two regular pockets, there is another pocket on the front of the left side, openable via zipper. For a while now, it's been a bit big on Jonathan.

History: Jonathan grew up in a small Arizona town that wasn't as well-known as, say, Phoenix. Contrary to any thoughts that Arizona was all desert, this town was up in the mountains, where it actually snowed in the winters. Jonathan had two older brothers and a four-years-younger sister. The oldest brother, about ten years older, had joined the U.S. Navy; the other brother, three years older, was more of a computer-tech geek who, after graduating, found a college that fit what he was looking for. It was because of his brothers that Jonathan became a fan of the Pokemon games as he grew up.

As he grew up, Jonathan tended to gravitate towards anything that involved electronics, and he was one of the best at his school when it came to mathematics. However, Jonathan wasn't the social type. He was generally quiet at school, and he ended up spending a lot of time on his Pokemon games. By the time high school came around for him, Jonathan had ended up with a bunch of Pokemon on one of his games that had been traded and whatnot; as a result, he didn't restart the game with all of his Pokemon, as it would have been difficult for him to get similar Pokemon again.

For the last four summers, Jonathan attended a sort of class where he learned more about the specifics of electronics and the likes. This last summer, he got a package that held all the basic tools and such for anything electronic-wise.

It was less than a year after graduating from high school that the strange weather began; Jonathan learned about this from other people and over the Internet. He wasn't a stranger to many of the Pokemon in the games, so when the Darkrai, the Egg, and the letter appeared to him, Jonathan basically geeked out.


Personality: Jonathan is still not the complete social-type. He's more talkative now, though, which helps when interacting with other people. Jonathan knows more about electronics after high school than before. He's learned to be more decisive, whereas before, he sometimes flip-flopped. He tries to be as honest as he can. Despite a somewhat-messy room in his childhood, Jonathan tends to organize some things in a certain way. He thinks of himself as weird at times; one reason he might give is that he notices odd, irrelevant things every now and then.


Colors of Soul: Cyan/Gold
Legendary: Darkrai

Pokemon: Treecko
Pokemon Nickname: Tucker
Gender: Male
Personality: Tucker tends to be jumpy, especially when something new pops up suddenly, in which case he either runs away or tries to attack it. Tucker finds Jonathan's tools interesting, though, almost like they were fancy toys. Jonathan's had to pull one away from the Treecko multiple times. When Tucker isn't jumpy or playing, he explores what he can.

Legendary: Darkrai
Nickname: Gard
Gender: Male
Personality: Gard isn't one who is constantly on the offensive. More like one who'd retaliate if threatened. Gard sticks to the shadows, partly because showing himself would make half the public freak out and the other half geek out. Jonathan's world wasn't the Pokemon world, after all. Gard occasionally helps with Tucker.

RP Sample:
Jonathan was looking over the motherboard of a sluggish computer when his cell-phone rang. He set the board down and pulled his phone out to answer. "Hello?" After listening for a few seconds, Jonathan replied, "Yeah, I have it here. Seems like something got fried...Yeah, I can fix it...See ya. Bye." He set the cell phone down on the bed before setting the motherboard back on his legs. That was the second time his brother had called to ask him if he'd figured out why the computer had slowed down. Jonathan set to fixing it, using the new-ish tools he'd gotten. This'll take a while, he thought.

Several minutes later, his cell-phone rang again. Jonathan carefully put the motherboard on the bed again to answer. "Hello?"
"Don't say you're working on somethin'," the caller said. Sounded like one of the other kids from his high-school class. "We're gonna go see a movie. Wanna come?"
Jonathan bit his lip in thought before answering, "Depends. What kind of movie?" When he heard the answer, he shook his head. "No. Sorry, but no. That kind of movie isn't for me."
"Oh, cummon--"
"Snap, I left it on! I hafta go, see ya!" Jonathan ended the call and dropped his phone before jumping up and hurrying to the kitchen. He turned the oven off before sighing. Another invitation he'd turned down. Oh, well, that kind of movie really wasn't for him. Jonathan walked back to his room and continued working on the circuit board.

 

[Fuyu]

I'm assuming this is a reserve Garet?

Sandeon you are accepted.

 

[Garet]

Yeah, it's a reserve. Sorry for not saying that before.

 

[nokyo-chan]

Wish granted.

May I please reserve Moltres? I'll have my SU up soon. ^_^

 

[Fuyu]

Both of you are reserved then. It will be up in a few hours

 

[Nakuzami]

May I reserve a spot with Celebi?
Also, all of the english names have been revealed for Gen V. Just lettin' ya know.

Pfft, Michaela gets both Latios and Latias?! That's just wrong XD

Hey, it was said that a person could have both. D=<

It's obvious because I'm the better RPer that I get both. xP

 

[Nakuzami]

Hey, it was said that a person could have both. D=<

It's obvious because I'm the better RPer that I get both. xP

Hmm...Don't get too full of yourself :P

I am working on my SU as we speak...er, type.

 

[Fuyu]

Nakuzami you're reserved. Yeah I know the names are out but the games aren't. Waiting until I've played with them to allow them, mostly due to the fact that there's too many to keep track of. ><

 

[Nakuzami]

Okay, I have a majority of my SU complete. But I was wondering if I could make my Cyndaquil a special color.

Spoiler:

Name: Kris Kollyns
Age: 13
Gender: Male

Appearance:
Kris has caucasian skin and he stands at about five feet six inches. He weighs about 115 pounds and has semi-long dirty blond hair with bangs that sweep to the side and cover his right eye. Some say it looks like an "emo" haircut, and he has hazel eyes.

Kris doesn't look very physically fit. He looks like a scrawny weakling who can't handle his own. Though many have learned over the years not to underestimate him. He may look weak, but he isn't. He has better lower body strength than upper and is a very fast runner. He sometimes wears a black beanie hat and always wears his cherished black and white checkered hoodie with black faux fur covering the inside. He usually wears a dark blue, red or black t-shirt that is almost never seen due to his hoodie. He usually wears dark blue or black jeans and black skate sneakers with a white skull design on them.

History:
Kris was all over the place in the past. He was smart in school, yet appeared as more of a bully. Even though he appeared as a bully, he appeared as a really nice kid. It all depended on his mood, except for the intelligence part. In school he was popular, though not in the way most wanted to be. He got in trouble a lot as a kid, until recently when he started doing a bit better as he learned a bit more restraint. He never made many very good friends, and his best friends were related to him. Specifically his sister, Krystal. He liked to wander around some of the time, but he was more of a gamer. He was never a big fan of most sports as they bored him to death.

Personality:
Kris is very confused. He can't decide what personality to have. Most of the time he is an anti-social outcast. When he knows somebody, usually his age, well, he is more outgoing and friendly. Some people he just instantly hates, especially if they think they're better than everyone and really they're the lowest you can go. People like that are ones he would just love to strangle. Sometimes he can be your best friend, sometimes he can be a hypocrite and/or an @$$, though not intentionally. He isn't very fond of people but he loves animals, and therefore, pokemon.

Color(s) of Soul: (I don't really get this but...okay?) Jet Black and Silver

Weapons: Dual Swords that can hook together to form a large sword.

Pokemon: Cyndaquil

Nickname: Cinder
Gender: Male
Personality: Cinder is a strange pokemon, he seems to have multiple personalities. Most of the time he's extremely silly and wild. When he needs to be he is very brave and strong. And when someone needs some cheering up he's the perfect friend.

Legendary: Celebi
Nickname: Tiejequizas (Tee-ay-ha-qwee-zus) or just Celebi
Gender: Female
Personality: Celebi is similar in personality to Cinder. She can be silly and wild or brave and strong. She doesn't always know how to cheer someone up but is so funny she ends up cheering them up anyway. Sometimes she can be a klutz but hopefully not when time traveling...

RP Sample:
I stared out the window. It was raining and I was debating whether I should run outside to get soaked or stay inside to play videogames. Of course playing videogames won. I turned on my PS2 and began playing some Ratchet Deadlocked as I waited for the rain to pass. Though it's not like I would go outside even if it did pass.

As I was playing, my cat, Kitten, jumped onto my lap. This forced me to pause the game and pet her, as she didn't let you pet her often. That was her role in life: be cute and taunt everyone else with it. I didn't mind. I stroked her fur as I stared at the screen, thinking about my entire battle strategy.

Kitten jumped off my lap and I resumed playing. I hoped that the summer would somehow last forever, scool was horrible...

 

[Fuyu]

Sure that's perfectly fine just give a good reason

 

[Nakuzami]

Good reason...? For Cinder being...wait, i'll tell you what later. But the only "good" reason I can think of is that the universe commands it. I'll edit my SU now to get in a little more.

Okay, everything but the RP sample is complete...

 

[Swolligator]

SU is finished, Fuyu. enjoy.

 

[Fuyu]

Garet and Ichiro are accepted. Will put up OOC thread later on in the day. I'm giving all reserves who gave me a request on the 22nd until 11:00 P.M. Eastern time to complete SUs. If they are not done and you still wish to participate, contact me.

Also, since people have been having problems with this: Color/s of Soul: What color suits that character best? It could even be your favorite if you can't decide.

 

[nokyo-chan]

Name: Fierra Landly
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance: She has long, somewhat unruly red hair. Her eyes are green and her skin is pale-ish. She usually wears long-sleeve shirts and jeans. She's tall and thin, almost willowy.
History: Fierra's a pretty normal girl. Her father died when she was just a baby, and while she does wish that she could have had a father, she doesn't harp too much on it. She lives in a small town in the southern United States in an apartment close to her school. Her mother raised her by herself.
Personality: She's sort of laid back,
Color(s) of Soul: Red
Legendary: Moltres
Weapons: None
Pokemon: Ponyta

Pokemon Nickname: None
Gender: Female
Personality: Pretty intense, all about some running and fighting

Legendary: Moltres
Nickname: None; doesn't want one
Gender: Male
Personality: Noble, somewhat elitist; very proud

Spoiler:

"Does anyone know? Fierra?"

Fierra glanced up from doodling on the margins of her notes, brushing red hair out of her eyes and scanning the board for a clue as to what the question was. Finding none, she shrugged noncommittally and went back to her drawings. The teacher sighed and moved on.

She ran her fingers through her hair as she colored in the center of a flower, her mind outside in the cold air. She couldn't wait to stand outside and let the wind rush over her, blowing her hair back, giving her the feeling of flying. She could stand out in the schoolyard for hours, until her nose glowed red and her whole face stung with the cold, and only when her cheeks began to ache would she make her way back inside. The open air, the wind—it all made her feel exhilarated.

"Fierra, do you know the answer?"

School, however, bored her.

She glanced up again. "Two?"

The teacher sighed. "Ms. Landly, you're in English class."

 

[Fuyu]

Okay Nokyo-chan it's a good start but it needs some buffering. There's got to be more to her than just being laid-back and that her father died when she was a baby. Did she have much in the way of friends as a child? Why doesn't she care about school? Bring in a little more detail and I'll accept you.

 

[Nakuzami]

My SU is complete, I think...
