Orange Islands 2: Murcott Revival

[pokejungle]

>>Before you read more, please take time to consider this: my RP is a COMMUNITY ROLEPLAY. We are NOT going on giant PoKeMoN MaStEr crusade or anything. Thanks!

If you have no clue how to community RP, check out my stickied thread in the "RP Lounge" forum! It helps n.n;;

Description:
The sun shone brightly, heating the sandy beaches of Murcott island. Villagers went on with their daily lives, the village market was bustling. Kids darted imbetween adults, a sure sign school was out. The outskirting forest buzzed with the sound of the bug pok?mon that hade made Murcott island famous. Bug catchers from everywhere ventured here to capture rather elusive prey.

Fisherman out by the dock dozed in and out from the lulling heat. Their toes dabbled in the water, as magikarp swum about. The harbour was rather lacking in boats today, only three were moored there. Tomorrow was the day that the SS Milotic would bring tourists and potential homebuyers. It came on a rather sporatic schedule, so it was a treat. The newcomers would often bring a surge in Murcott's economy.

In side Misteria's cafe sat the mayor Ken'ichi, Rey, and Al. Behind the counter, Misteria prepared dinner for them.



You can choose to either be a homebuyer coming off the SS Milotic, or a resident islander.

[Al Duit]

Name: Alex Duit (nickname Al)
Age [18+]: 19

Village Position: Fishing Supply Shop

Name of Store: Al's I'll Catch It Shop

Physical desc: Towheaded (white hair) crew cut, blue eyes, 6' 4", slender. Usually wears brightly colored burmuda shorts, blue t-shirt w/ a picture of milotic on it, off-white fisherman's hat w/ tackle stuck all over it, and blue water shoes.

Roleplay Sample: Chimes ring, indicating someone has come into my shop. I look up from dusting some display shelves. "Hi there! Welcome to Al's I'll Catch It Shop. May I help you?"

I walk around the display to see Elisa Brown looking around. She was the most beatiful lady I'd ever had the pleasure to meet. We went to school together, and I'd had a secret crush on her since I was 8. "Oh, hi Elisha. Are you here for business or pleasure?" I smile, giving her a wink as I try not to show her how nervous I get every time she comes near.__________________

[Neko]

Name: Neko
Age [18+]: 18
Village Position: Raman waitress XP
Name of Store: Its just a ramn stand o___O;;
Physical desc: Has long dark brown hair and dark blue eyes. Wears a blood red T-shirt and dark blue jeans.
Emotional desc: Doesn't reall have any friends except for her Pokemon..
Roleplay Sample: Neko sighed as she exited out the raman stand from the back of it and sat down on an empty wooden cart, her baby Eevee, Eve, laying down on her head. The other people that worked there didn't mind her new baby Pokemon following her around for now. Besides, she was only a few weeks old..and she entertained the waiting customers. "Finally..My shift is over.." Neko sighed as she got up again and started to walk around the city, Eve still laying on her head, sleeping. Huge buildings towered over her as she continued walking. She walked over to a nearby park the raman stand was located at. Neko walked through the trees that were there and came to a huge clearing in the middle of the park. Wooden picknick tables and benches were scattered about the area. A playground was loacted near the back of the feild. Neko sat down on a nearby bench and took off her Eevee from her head. Eve woke up a little bit later and gave out a big, hungry, yelp. She sighed and detached four Pokeballs from her belt. "Go!!" She called, throwing the four balls into the air. Bright white flashed appeard and as they faded, four Pokemon took their place; A male Raichu named Zapper, A female Espeon named Kaita, a male Umbreon name Kage, and a female Charizard named Lizardon. Eve gave an excited cry then ran over to her mother and father; Kaita and Kage. Kaita layed down as Eve went over to her and starting nursing. The other three went a little farther out, not wanting to disturb the two, and got into a three for all sparring practice.

Neko smiled at her Pokemon. They weren't like any regular form of themselves though; they were all different colors. Her Raichu was a dark orange and his stripes were a lgiht neon orange. Her Espeon was a light silverish color. Her Umbraon was a dark blue color with light neon blue rings. And her Charizard was a fire red color..

Neko continued to watched the five and, after about an hour of watching the three spar and Eve nurse, Neko layed her head down on her hands on the bench and fell asleep..

 

[Sailor Chibi Lunatone]

Name: Violet Maple
Age [18+]: 18
Village Position: Daughter and housekeeper of Simon Maple, the local Pokemon researcher.
Name of Store: (Not really a store, but..) Professor Maple's Pokemon Research Laboratory
Physical desc: Violet stands at about five feet, four inches tall. Her shoulder length hair is a golden brown, and she often wears a green bandanna in it. Her eyes are normally green, but they have been known to change color according to her mood. She usually wears a blue or gray shirt along with denim shorts and sandals.
Emotional desc: Violet is kind and caring towards others. She is friendly and helpful most of the time. Though she does not hate tourists and newcomers to the island, she isn't particuarly happy about them. She worries greatly about the health of her father, Professor Maple, who often forgets to eat and sleep because he is buried in his research.
Roleplay Sample:

As Violet walked down the hallway, she noticed a light coming from her father's laboratory's door. This worried her greatly; her father had forgotten to go to sleep again. This was third night in a row that he had spent awake. "It's just gotten worse and worse," she said to herself. "It's been two days since he last ate, three since he last slept, and a week since he's been out of the house. It wasn't like this before Mom died..."

She entered the kitchen and checked the refrigerator and pantry for any items that they were out of. She took a pencil and a sheet of paper and made a list of the missing items that she would have to get at the local market. After placing the list in her fanny pack, she strapped it around her waist and exited the house. She made her way down to the dock where a small power boat was kept, that she and her father could use to get from the tiny island where they lived to the main island. After climbing into the boat, she started up the engine and rode across the waterway that separated the two islands. She docked at the island's harbor and made her way towards the marketplace...

[MegaFuz]

Name: Kevin AKA Kev or Fuzz

Village Position: Designs/Builds Custom Trainer Devices [Dexes, Belts, Backpacks, etc.]
Name of Shop: Creati-Works
Physical Desc:

Emotional Desc: Tough attitude on the outside, but really a caring individual. Owns rare pokemon Corcyro and enjoys training him in free time. Big fan of Pokemon Battling.
Corcyro Desc:

RP Sample: Kev took a step outside of his shop and breathed in the fresh Murcott air. After spending the last 8 hours working on a new custom PokeDex, it felt good to get outside. He looked up at the setting sun, and suddenly felt greatly disappointed that he wouldn't be able to get out for any training time tonight. Suddenly, Kev felt a deep rumble in his stomach and hunger painfully kicked in. Remembering he had not had time to pick up any groceries in the last week, Kev decided to make a stop at Misteria's Place before heading home for the night. Excited by the fact he didn't have to cook, Kev quickly set off down the sidewalk to eat a quick meal and return home to his cherished Corcyro.

It looks like this might be dieing out :\ Hopefully things pick up because this RP looks mighty cool.

 

[Kogenta]

Name: Rey Schneider
Age [18+]: 20
Physical desc: Lean, compact, appears to have a rather light build; dark blue hair with a silver streak, silvery blue eyes
Emotional desc: Though often calm and somewhat distant, Rey is usually fairly tolerant of those about him. Intelligent and observant, Rey occasionally may become slight irritable or entirely cold if he becomes heavily focused on a certain subject. Also, Rey may, every now and again, suddenly and inexplicably have an overwhelming desire to be alone. When he is in a more amiable mood, his eyes will gain a greater blue colour, while they will fall to silver when he desires isolation.
Reason for coming: Rey was born in the Orange Islands. However, when he was young, several undesirable events drew him away from his home. Though much of his memory regarding his childhood is lost, Rey desired to return to the place of his birth in an attempt to rediscover his past. Unfortunately, he is unsure on which island he was born. Murcott Island, however, is the island he most highly suspects.

 

[Wolf_Goddess]

Name: Fawn
Age [18+]: 19
Village Position: Owner of the "Bug Catcher's Supply Shop"
Name of Store: Bug Catcher's Supply Shop, and currently a groomer
Physical desc: A tall, beautiful woman with long, golden blond hair ending at the end of her spine, (usually in a braid,) and deep brown eyes, resembling a deer's eyes with the same innocence as one. She usually wears a white sun-dress that ends at her knees, and wheres flip-flops. Around her waist is a large, pink belt with a golden Pokeball emblem on the front.
Emotional desc: A calm, kind girl with a motherly attitude, though can get agitated quite quickly. She doesn't mind getting dirty, and loves Bug Pokemon. Though she may not appear it, she is always willing to take a risk, and loves competition. She may get moody at some points, but other then that is a caring individual. Fawn acts rather joyful most of the time, and enjoys laughing. She also collects berries to cook her own meals.
Roleplay Sample: "What a lovely time in the forest!" Fawn laughs, following her Scyther towards the town. She carried a picnic basket overflowing with plump juicy berries, tender with ripeness. They appear ready to burst with juices at any moment. "We sure did get a lot of berries, didn't we, Blade?" she says, adressing her Scyther. Blade repsonds with a quick "Scy," before the bell rings as they enter her shop.

Fawn places the berries on the counter before going towards the boxes that were placed right by the door, filled with Bug Catching supplies such as nets and Netballs. She smiles, opening the bag and then whistling. Out of the "Employer" section in the back swarmed dozens of Yanma, who began taking the supplies and placing them on top of the shelf. Her Scyther helps as well, opening thew other packages and more Yanma appear.

Fawn smiles joyfully before taking her place by the counter, waiting for any willing Bug Catcher or curious guest to enter.

 

[Charon]

Name: Hester
Age:18
Physical desc: Slender, but with a badly scarred face. Shoulder length hair, light brown. Wears grey jeans and a white tank top, and a dark blue bandanna. Green eyes. Her chest, leg and face are all disgusting to look at - her leg is burnt, but her torso and face had been slashed by some sort of sharp weapon.
Emotional Desc: Extremely defensive and synical, but is incredibly loving when it comes to her friends and family. She loves all the way, Hates all the way.
Reason for coming: A new start; means of escape from her painfull past.

Roleplay sample: Standing in the foyer, the girl was a peculiar sight. She was incredibly slim, with a model-standard figure and a light brown hair in a modern, layered cut. Her eyes were piercingly green, but they weren't the most prominent feature on her face. A long, deep scar ran from her right eye down to her jaw bone, dark red and still raw.
It seemed to split her soft face in two, and marred her appearence terribly. She was dressed in stone grey jeans, with large rips in the knees, and a white tank top. Another scar was just visible, poking above the line of her top - again, giving her a rough edge to her complexion. She shot an anxious glance about, grabbed her luggage, and prepared to leave the ship. The Murkrow on her shoulder gave the crowd a disapproving look, and cawed loudly.

{Eeep, I hope I get in...}

{EDIT: Oh, and please bear in mind during week days I'll only be able to manage one quick post a day...school work keeps me very busy... is that okay?}

Emotional desc: His mother and father disappeared when he was just nine while on a Safari. He stugles with sadness and rage though he tends to try to hide it. Making friends with him wont be easy, seeing that he'd rather make an enmy than a friend. But still he like's people's prestince, and admire's people that won't put up with crap.
Reason for coming: He's traveled around the world, this is just one more place to check off his list... Or at least he uses that excuse. The very few that did get close to him know that he's up to somthing more than just travling... The question is, what? Some say there is a connection with him and mysterous pokemon sightings, that occur shortly after he arvives in an area.
Roleplay sample: (takes place one day before SS Milotic sets sail)

Darkness filled the room as the thunder started rumbling in."Why...Why not just end everything now? I could do it..."I paused, then laied face up in bed staring at the cealing."Yea I could." These thoughts raced through my head eveynight. "But tonight is different. Why wait another night..." I paused again strugling to fight back tears."I'm just prolonging the inevitable..." I sat up in my bed with tear filled eyes, and reached for the gun beside me. "The darkness has tooken me to far..." Thunder rolled as I placed the gun tip under my chin. "Well I guess this is goodbye ol' friend." I said with a deep breath to a figure in the corner of the room which seemed to resemble a pokemon. I pulled the triger as lighting filled the room...There was a scilence.An overwheliming scilence that made me know the shadows still had control over me. "Empty." I droped the gun as tears raced down my face. "Why???" I asked. Then the phone ringed. I answered it... "Murcott island?" Thunder filled my ears again, and I cleared my voice. "I'll be there."

He wants to train his skills with his favourite instrument, his e-guitar. His best friend pichu, a pokemon he had caught a while ago came with him. Pichu is always on Hyekos shoulder. They want to train on Murcott Island and creat a band or something. Perhaps if the Island don?t has a pokecenter, they are thinking about to open one.
Roleplay sample: On the front side of the SS Milotic, Hyeko sat on a seat, enjoing the ultimate sunset. "Pichu? Where are ya?" Mumbling out of the big backpack the pichus head was seen. "Are you eating my sweets again?" Pichu laughed and got out of the backpack, then he run away. "Come back you yellow fat pichu! That sweets where mine! Don?t cry if you get too big so you can?t move any more!" He ran after the pichu. Pichu stopped as he saw a little girl crying. Hyeko came there too. "Hey little, whats wrong?" Girl: "My teddy fell of the ship..." Hyeko thought about it. He suddenly caught the pichu and gave it to the little girl. "Pichu? Chu...!" {What the hell are you doing?} "Hey little girl, play with pichu until we are on the island, ok?" {You can?t do that!} Girl smiled again and played with pichu ?who has eaten the cookie?....
