    Name: Adam Locke
    Age: 17
    Gender: Male
    History:
    Born into a family of poverty and barbarism who had a long heritage of smuggling, thievery and general taking of other people's property, Adam's childhood was anything but easy. He had to use all his wits from the age of five just to survive- his parents resented him over his brothers, who were both older and stronger than him, and in the secret underworld of London, strength is all that matters.

    Adam despised the way he was treated, and at the age of ten, he heard about the Brotherhood of London- a secret and international Assassin's group operating from within the poorer areas of London, where they coudl gain popular support from the neglected and disenfranchised people who lived there; gain young blood to use as assassins and messengers. Rather than the brute force many urchins used in the slums, they looked for speed, brains and reactions- three traits Adam had, by now, mastered perfectly. He was recruited, left the slums, and never looked back.

    He excelled in the training he was given, especially in stealth, espionage, and computing and communications. He had promise to be an excellent killer, but his heart and soul prevented him from killing innocents, despite his excellency at many basic murdering skills, so instead he became a co-ordinater of assassins, using several interfaces in order to keep a group informed of events occuring around them. He was still an asset in the fiel, aswell, able to technologically assist an assassin whilst hiding in waiting with them- his flexibility made him an asset to the Brotherhood, if only for a short five years, as he was twelve when the training was completed, and he was sickened by the murders he had aided- he left, at the age of sixteen, when news reached him of an assassination he personally had orchestrated- the murder of a woman and her two children. In a short internal power struggle a year before his departure, Adam lost an eye to a corrupted officer within the Bortherhood, and it was replaced with an implant to restore and improve his vision.

    For the next year, Adam became a Reporter's aide for the Times newspaper- an ambition he had worked for when he was young, in order to become a proper journalist. His years with the Brotherhood had left him with excellent qualifications, and was a fantastic assistance to the ace reporter Jonathan McRiley, until his fateful disappearance, when he went to a forest on the edge of town...

    Looks:
    Adam, at a first glance, doesn't seem too remarkable. He has medium-short dark brown hair that is usually neat and tidy, but in the wilderness, usually doesn't remain tidy for long. His skin is unusually pale, and his face is marked with many freckles, mainly around the nose and eyes. His eyes are probably his most unusual feature, with the left being a soft grey on the outside of the iris melting into a gentle brown nearer the pupil. However, his other eye is an optical implant which resembles his other eye, only with flickers of colour all over it, flickering on and off. He can use this eye to search the internet and watch videos anywhere there is a good wireless signal. His mouth is a few shades darker than his skin, and it fits well with his face, being short-ish and his lips being thin. His mouth is usually held in a gentle, warm smile, but as is nature not always. His nose is average sized and his nostrils are wide. His jaw is quite thin, and his cheekbones are set lower in his face than normal. He speaks in a soft French accent.

    [FONT=&quot]
    He is quite tall, but not overly so, and has long legs, but not so much to make him look gangly. He has long, graceful strides, and is light on his feet, moving quietly and quickly. His fingers are long and elegant, and his hand themselves reflect this- dainty and thin palms make his hands look like pianist's- which, in reality, they are. His arms are covered in scars, and his shoulder bears a birthmark looking almost like a leaf. His arms are thin and reach down to his waist, with his hands reaching further down. His feet are quite wide, and reasonably long. He is lean but not thin, and you'd not think of him as someone who could easily be beaten in a fight- if he had the demeanor of a fighter, as he keeps in a passive and generally unconfrontational stance.
    [/FONT]Clothing:
    [FONT=&quot]He usually wears a black trench coat with a hood that is buttoned up over his torso and splits over his legs, going down to just over his feet, and this trench coat only has his family insignia- a stylized green leaf- on the left chest pocket. Underneath this he wears a black, long-sleeved, cotton shirt with white wrists. He wears black denim jeans and black cotton socks, with black-and-orange walking shoes in most conditions. When cold, he wears a dark red scarf and matching gloves.

    [/FONT]Personality:
    [FONT=&quot]Adam is a sophisticant and a socialite, believing that all the worlds troubles can be sorted through open negotiation and a diplomatic solution is almost always possible, no matter how severe. This sense of optimism leads him to always give others a second chance if they need it, and he rigorously trains his Pokémon and children into being polite, sophisticated and civil at all times. This is his personal ethos which he abides by rigorously. Moreso than this is his unusual intelligence- an IQ test once placed him with the possibility of becoming the next Einstein.

    [/FONT] Adam mantains a general kindness to people of all statures- poor, rich, intelligent, less so, weak, strong- all are equal in his eyes. He does not abide laziness, however, and anyone under his command sees none of the beauty that his words can create- they receive a severe tongue lashing often leaving them working harder than ever. A power to motivate others into doing their task- either through encouragement or intimidation- leaves him either respected or feared by any who have met him.


    Adam is stealthy, shadowy and quiet in most situations- he would much rather stand in a corner and observe others than actually get involved in an engaged conversation at a party. Nonetheless, his skills in speech are excercised regularly- either through forced conversation or in front of a mirror. His eccentricity and flamboyance in ideas of how things should be done can make him difficult to argue or reason with- although his ideas usually are good, he usually can't see if they have bad points to them. His mastery of technology is legendary, and he would much prefer to spend an hour on the web rather than with other people. Despite this he can be helpful to a team, proved by his years in The Brotherhood.


    Starter: Sneasel
    Unique features about your starter:
    Nicknamed Shadow
    The ear that is coloured is a deeper, blood-red rather than a normal red.
     
    Wow...Adam is, like, ME. I am exactly like him! Except I'm not as smart. But I'm still smart. Aaaaaaaaaaaaanyway, you're Accepted.
     
    I'd like to reserve a spot please... Sableye
     
    Name: Moe Logroc​

    Age: 17

    Gender: Male

    History: Moe was born in Illinois, and was raised in the shadow of the forest. He learned about the various plant and animal life from his botanist father, who raised him to be a botanist as well. When he was 10, his mother showed up for the first time in his life and whisked him away to the desert to live with her.

    In his new desert home, his knowledge of plants helped his mother open a shop, where he was put to work growing various herbs, berries, and flowers. He would often go to the desert, spending large amounts of time in the caves near his home. He learned of the rocks and mushrooms in the caves, and was interested in becoming a Scientist.​

    Moe left for school at age 14, leaving his mother to run the shop. He earned degrees in botany, geography, and entomology, and graduated as a junior professor. It was then he learned his mother had to close the shop for selling illegal performance-enhancing herbs. He tracked her to the city of Seattle, Washington, recieving a mysterious call as he went to to the Church to meet with her. He headed for the forest instead, leaving his mother to her fate.​

    Looks:
    Moe is short for his age, standing only 5 foot tall. He is thin, weighing in at 120 lbs. His skin is darkened by the sun, leaving him with a perpetually red color. His black hair is short and curly, and his eyes are brown.​

    Clothing:
    He wears blue scrub pants and black hiking boots, with a grey t-shirt. On the t-shirt is a silouette of a ferret above the caption "got ferrets?". He wears an orange Hawaiian shirt over this, and has a white handkerchief in the breast pocket. He wears a monocle over his left eye to correct it's vision. He has several replacement monocles, including ones that function as sunglasses (for one eye only), night-vision, and a telescope.​

    Personality:
    Moe is a calm person, rarely showing emotion. He knows he is intelligent, but doesn't lord it over people. He is content with the area of his expertise, patiently waiting for his chance to shine.​
    He likes to talk to people, but isn't very good at it. He has a habit of randomly saying things, and usually tells people how he is feeling during conversations. He is very curious, prone to wandering off and learning about new things with all of his senses.

    Starter: Spike the Larvitar (Male)

    Name: Jackson "Knockout" Vance

    Age: 17

    Gender: Male

    History: Knockout was born in Texas, and even when he was young his family knew he was destined for great things. As he grew up he was always the largest kid around. Due to this he was always getting into fights with older kids that kept picking on him. He learned to hone his anger after learning martial arts from an older man. He eventually gained fame around his town when he got into a fight with the leader of the local gang. When he got the letter he thought it was just another person who wanted to fight. As he walked up to the forest he thought something was strange...

    Looks: Knockout stands about 6'8" 200 pounds of pure muscle. He has short, sandy brown hair. He has brown eyes, and scars all over his body from the fighting. He also has a tattoo of flames that start at his right knuckles all the way up to his shoulder.

    Clothing: He wears a black tee-shirt, and ripped up blue jeans. He also has a pokeball necklace from his love of the game in his world. He has black tennis shoes, and black gloves with the fingers cut off.

    Personality: He is a tough guy that has a very short fuse. He has never lost a fight. He as always loved the pokemon games, and only used fighting types. He is Brock-like in that he falls in love with any pretty girl he sees. He doesn't think much so he usually leaves thinking to others if he is in a group.

    Starter: Kinu the Tyrogue. Kinu is always afraid, so Knockout is always trying to toughen him up.
     
    ACCEPTED!!!

    ScootDumpling: You're ACCEPTED! But one thing: can you please turn down the love for pokemon just a little bit? I don't even know how he could've gotten that necklace.

    Godzil: You are also ACCEPTED! YAY YOU TWO!!!

    Alright, Godzil and I are the only ones that are born in the Pokemon world. I didn't intend on having anyone besides myself being born in the Pokemon world, but his was so good and he probably worked so hard...that I accepted. Anyway, you can't be born in the Pokemon world.

    Oh, no, its fine. It was only a little mistake. But, if you want, you can change it. And I do know how hard it is to come up with a character... It can be real hard, so I didn't want to ruin it.
     
    Then we are incredibly similiar people. And I like people who are like me. Curious, no?
     
    Name: Victor Martinez

    Age: 19

    Gender: Male

    History: Victor was born in a small town in Arizona, to a poor family of illegal immigrants. Both his parents had jumped the border, six months before his birth, making him still technically legal. When he was young his parents were deported, and he was forced to live with his uncle in California. At school, he was being bullied, and had much trouble at his studies. He had little friends, and the ones he had were a bad infuence on him. At the age of fifteen, things had gotten out of hand. He joined a gang, and started selling drugs. Three years into "the business" were successful, until there was an "anonymous tip" that another gang was dealing in the same area. Five minutes into the fight, police arrived, and took him away, and incarcerated him.

    A year later, he had nearly lost his mind. Victor is now in prison, and had killed a man. After his tenth nervous breakdown, he was given a phone call. "Hello?" Victor called. "Meet me at the edge of the forest at dawn..." answered a shady voice. "Hey, who is this? Wait, Who's gonna bail me out? Hey!" the phone makes a long tone. Victor slams his cell walls. "Victor Martinez?" said a gruff voice "some idiot bailed ya' out" the warden calls, and drags him out of the cell into the lobby "now get the [...self censor] out of my house!" After being kicked down concrete steps, Victor quickly gets up and runs for the forest. He pants. "Welcome to the world of Pokemon, Victor..." says the shady voice. "Wait what?" He runs angrily forward, and releases a punch. "What...?" His voice echoes...

    Looks: Victor is very thin, as he hasn't eaten much in prison. Being incarcerated for such a long time, he's been toughening. He has a six-pack with abs. There are several marks on his body, as he has been fighting too much (ugh... I sound like the last guy). A tattoo of his initials inside a gem is made on his stomach. Most his body is a particular shade of brown, his hair being the darkest. His eyes are black.

    Clothing: As a human, he has no shirt. Only his prison trousers are worn. He has chin piercings. A red bandanna is tied to his neck.

    Personality: Victor's insanity can not actually be put into words. This attempt will probably fail. Anger controls many portions of him, but he will calm. As a human, he is crazy. He is otherwise an "eccentric" man. When he is not killing or carving shivs, he is thinking. Thoughts run through his mind throughout the day. No one could match his brain or will power, he is supreme.

    Starter: Sableye

    Unique features about your starter: Instead of a light white color, his "eyes" are a bloodshot red. which carries on to the bottom socket. The side of his head is blue instead of being the regular shade. There is an iron dot on his new Pokemon forehead.
    P.S. You kind of remind me of my friend, Helen...(Yes a girl)

    I would like to make a reservation for either Gible or Gligar, I will have my SU up tonight most likely, thanks ahead of time.
     
    K.

    Kid Ghandi: Nice recovery. Off Pending, on Accepted.

    Monochrome: You are reserved for...both until tonight.


    Alright, this is awesome! Half of the RPers in, like, 3-4 days! We need girls in here, though...I mean, an RP is bland without even little tiny crushes. WE NEED GIRLS! TELL EVERY GIRL THAT YOU KNOW THAT IS ON THIS SITE!

    So here's the deal: We have half of our RPers and none of them are girls. Get RainbowMunchies or paralellzero or someone. I even made a Buneary and Pachirisu! And two pokemon with optional genders! GET SOME GIRLS IN THIS.

    Alright, this is good. Abra is reserved for the lady with the...face.
     
    The lady without a face would like to reserve a spot! And a Pachirisu.

    Here it is! :

    Name: Sheherazad Baltimora Abdul​

    Age: 19

    Gender: Female

    History: The daughter of a doctor and a professor, Sheherazad was expected to have an easy life. She was named her after a character from a famous book, but she felt it was too long, and was simply called by her last name.

    Abdul followed in her father's footsteps, learning the ways of medicine. By age 15 she was an expert in herbal remedies and knew how to prepare various medicines. She has an inventive mind, and is very adept at improvising. After graduating high school, she set out to explore the world before going to medical school. While travelling through a poorer country, she was kidnapped by a village that had no doctor. She was able to hone her medical skills and learn to apply them on animals, and learned basic self-defense techniques to protect from patients and the men of the village.

    She recieved the call on a satelite phone some missionaries had brought, and snuck off that night towards the meeting place...​

    Looks:

    Abdul is 5' 10", and weighs 123 pounds. She is lean and wiry, her body solid from the thin muscles. Her skin is naturally dark, which is increased by the amount of time she spends in the sun. Her hair is jet black, and barely reaches her shoulders. She has dark eyes and a pointed nose, giving her a fierce hawk-like look.​

    Clothing:

    Abdul wears white pants, white shoes, and an orange long-sleeved shirt. She wears a white lab coat over top. She has several satchels attached to her belt, where she keeps her medicines. She wears a purple bracelet around both wrists, and an orange cloth wrapped around her forehead to keep her hair in place. She has a pair of gold earrings which look like an ankh inside a gold circle. A matching amulet hangs around her neck.​

    Personality:

    Abdul is a rather serious woman, who wears her heart on her sleeve and is a good source of knowledge. She sees no point in lying to people, but knows how to soften the impact. She is kind and cares for people, doing what she believes is right.

    Starter: Reese the Pachirisu (Female)​

    Unique features: Reese's checks are purple instead of yellow.

    This seems pretty interesting, I'd like to submit a SU for Gligar (although if Monochrome chooses Gligar, I could go for Gible)… reserving -.-

    However, I'm perplexed as to why every character as of now is so… unique(?).
    It doesn't seem to me that this RP needs such over-the-top characters, but I guess I can roll with the punches, I'm just interested as to: why?

    Anyways, I'm a dude, but I don't really have an issue RPing girls (done it once before), so I guess I can do that! ^_^
     
    You really don't have to, an RP's just bland with all guys or girls. It just doesn't feel right.

    Anywway...grey+fish is reserved Gible.

    Draginja is taking Pachirisu. Cuz' she's Accepted.

    And Gligar is still for Monochrome, and Abra is still for Zirkle38.

    That's our status. It seems everyone but Buneary is taken...we need her taken. If we can have the three reservers above get their SU's in today, then we'll probably be good.
     
    Questions:
    • Do our characters know about Pokémon already? (Does it exist in… our world, or are they being take somewhere completely new?)
    • If accepted, could you wait until Monochrome posts his SU up (or his reservation ends)? I'm just a lot fonder of the idea of using Gligar over Gible.
    ^ Actually, what the heck, I take that back… I'm for some reason preferring Gible over Gligar right now, so… :P​

    And without much further ado, I present you:

    Spoiler:

    Wow, I didn't mean to at first, but I guess I did end up making her sort of extraordinaire. I wrote the history section last. :P
    Personally, I prefer to write the history first, and flesh out the character I talked about in it later, but I guess fleshing out a character and then putting it in a particular setting also works.

    OK, they're taken to Eterna Forest, swooped away by a Staraptor, and dropped off in Jubilife. But they came from our world. And your characters can have heard about Pokemon, but they don't have to. Oh, and dude, Is your Gible a guy or girl, and what's its nickname?

    But you're Accepted.
