    Link --> Main thread.

    In this thread you can ask questions about things you're unsure about, discuss things to do with the RP, leave your feedback (including critical feedback), announce absences, etc.

    If you're in a scene where you feel you need to play another person's character for any reason, you should post here asking their permission. You should check this thread often also in case someone has requested to play your character for a scene. Only when permission is given should you play another person's character.

    Exceptions are when you play another person's character in a very minor way, not undermining their character or making them go out of character, and when the interaction is very brief and doesn't give much away, and when you're not making a decision for the other player.

    RP has officially started.

    MAP:

    Details:

    Desert scrubland has a few plants scattered about. Thorny shrubs, cacti, and the cactus-mimicking cacnea. The plants are very spaced apart and there aren't many. There is a generally even ratio of sand, rock and gravel that steadily becomes sandier towards the boundary of the dunes, and less sandy towards the boundaries of the rocky areas.

    Rocky desert tends to be on slightly higher ground, far from sea level or on hills. Sandstorms have carved out impressive rock formations such as columns, rock bridges and arches in some areas where it's hilly. Some hills are more like mounds surrounded by scree. The rock has a reddish tinge to it, but is mostly brown. There generally isn't a lot of sand here, more like small fragmented rock chips if there is any kind of soil substance.

    Rocky highland is similar to rocky desert but is actually quite a bit cooler due to the elevation. It is still dry and therefore rocky desert-like, but a few plants can grow here due to the dew that forms overnight when light clouds roll over these hills. There are some steep crags and sheer cliffs, so be careful.

    Sand dune desert is one of the harshest and most difficult habitats on the island. Even when there isn't a sandstorm, there is often a persistent wind that blows sand across the surface of the dunes and it's no cool breeze - it's a hot, unpleasant wind. The sand can be difficult to cross because it takes more energy to walk on soft sand than flat ground.

    So, allow me to make the first reply and or possibly unnecessary question:

    Maybe it's a bit early to ask, but about Saliplan Island, will there be a map available with the locations and whatnot?
     
    I've decided to post the finished product here. OMG, I AM DONE! Sorry the last history paragraph is crap, I have to go to sleep so I'm rushing. D=

    You know... why not. I quite enjoy drawing maps but I never thought of making a map for this, so thanks for the idea, I'll give you credit for it. It won't be up as soon as the RP starts though, at least I don't think it'll be finished on time.

    Hm, something different. This seems fine, even if it was lacking the conversation with the others. It's fine that you showed her arriving at Vermilion. Seems okay, accepted, just in time.
     
    Okay then, good to see that the OOC thread is up and that we're getting this Roleplay going. I guess I'll get a looksy at the main thread and then probably get a post up eventually. Oh, and I like the idea of getting a map ready for this. It should help with travel and such across the island.

    I've posted and all that too if it's of any interest.

    Sorry I havn't put up my new post yet. I'm visiting my college and haven't had time to sit down and write posts yet. I should have my post up by tonight, latest tomorrow.
     
    I'm sorry for bothering, but it seems like I took on more than I could handle. I'm sorry and I'm withdrawing from this RP.
     
    @Abyss: Bye. :/

    @Beechlgz: I think maybe....you could post the next chapter? O.o I don't know, it seems kinda draggy just doing nothing but catching Pokemon and exploring the island. We will be able to catch other new rare Pokemon while we're going to that site, right?
     
    @Abyss: Hm, shame to see people go. :/

    What he said. We probably need a reason to keep going.
     
    Sorry I was waiting for Abyss to post but I forgot that they had already left. I'll get next part up ASAP. Not tonight, because it's late and I'm tired. EDIT: Actually, give me until the afternoon because I got to go out first thing this morning.

    If we manage to Catch over 6 pokemon do they get sent to a professor? If so how do we manage our party after that?
     
    They get sent to your PC (or professor, either-or) and you can retrieve them next time at the town.
     
    Sorry, I'm going to have to withdraw from this Roleplay. I've just been struggling to find time for things like this lately, so I simply don't have time. Sorry for any inconvinience this may cause.
     
    Yeah, same as me, sorry. ^^
     
    You know what... so do I. I don't care about this piece of crap RP any more. Let it die.

    Really it;'s like one of those bad fanfics you wrote a year ago, and are just re-reading it thinking "was I high when I wrote this?" except you actually weren't high.

    Really that's it? I was actually enjoying this Rp but if you say so. I still think you should try to continue it for those who are in it though.
     
    I'm sorry but I was just really, really starting to hat it. The player's posts were all it had going for it, the background I'd written for it is really crap.
