BECAUSE OF SOME ACTIVITY IN THE OTHER THREAD, IT WAS REVIVED AS A NEW ONE. IT WAS ON MY FORUM, BUT NOW IT WON?T LET ME ON, SO UNTIL I GET IT FIXED OR GET A NEW ONE, THIS RP IS HERE.
And if you aren?t invited to this one, please don?t get mad at me.
Okay, for all of you who have actually read the real book called ?The City of Ember?, DON?T SPOIL THE EVENTS!!! Oh, and this is an invite only RP. And I know, the book is ? to Jeanne DuPrau, the wonderful author. ^_^ I will be using events from the actual book, too. Anyway?
Plot:
In the world of eternal darkness, there is only on light. The city of Ember. The pok?mon that live in this city know only of their world, because as far as anyone knows, they are the only city in the dark land. For as long as anyone can remember, the endless food supply and light bulbs have kept the endless blackness at bay. But now the lights are beginning to flicker?
It is Assignment Day, when all pok?mon of twelve years of age are given a job. We are a group of friends who have heard rumors of the generator that keeps the lights running. The generator has been messing up, according to rumor, and all the citizens have noticed that the blackouts are getting more frequent?
Will you draw the job that will help Ember? Is there a way out? Another city? More food? A way to fix the generator? All is up to chance.
Now, I will randomly choose which job you draw. If you don?t want it, trade with someone else, instead of sending me hateful messages about it! I will have a list of the jobs, too, so you can pick the one you want (though that doesn?t mean you?ll get it, it?s just required info for certain parts of the RP) Okay, acceptable and not acceptable:
Acceptable:
Unacceptable:
Okay, now, the Sign up sheet:
Name: Doesn?t have to be your real one.
Type: What type of pok?mon you are.
Personality: If you don?t know what your personality is, I?m freaked.
Appearance: Is your pok?mon Shiney? Missing an ear? Explain!
Favorite job: Choose from the list below which job your character wants. Remember, there?s no guarantee you?ll get it, but it will help with things later on in the RP.
Job list:
Pipeworks laborer ? You work down underground in the Pipeworks, where the generator is.
Messenger ? Get to run around a select area of town, carrying messages for people.
Supply Desk clerk ? Sit behind a desk and take orders from shopkeepers, then send carriers down to the storerooms for the requested items.
Electrician?s helper ? fixing dead street bulbs and house lights.
Greenhouse Helper ? Helps out in the greenhouse.
Building repair assistant ? Helps repair buildings and structures.
Trash shifter ? Moves trash from homes to the two giant trash heaps outside of town, at the horizon of the dark world.
Doctor?s assistant ? Binds up cuts and give medicine.
Now, these are my characters for the story that you can use as a temporary character to interact with:
Clary, the female Grovile that runs the Greenhouse.
Dr. Felinia Tower, the Chansey doctor.
Mayor Cole, the Raichu mayor of the city.
Mrs. Thorn, the Delacaty class teacher.
Oh, one more thing. There are no trees, grass, water (save for the underground river), or any contact with humans or other cities at all. If I can get the map from the real book scanned, I will, but it's a two page one, so.. It may not come out clear.
And if you aren?t invited to this one, please don?t get mad at me.

Acceptable:
- You can bring in up to two additional characters of your own, but only temporarily, and they can?t be human. They also are allowed to go off plot for a small while, but they can?t change the idea completely.
- If you have something to say to someone that doesn?t have to do with your RP post, put it behind this: OOC. Example: I waded through the water.
- Your pok?mon can talk, so you don?t have to translate ?pika pika? in every post. ^^;
- You can be any pok?mon you want, but it can?t be legendary. It can be genderless, though.
- Remember, your character is only twelve years old, so they can?t be super powerful or anything.
- You can have up to three characters, just separate each of their views with three stars, if your doing it first-person. (***)
Unacceptable:
- Don?t SPAM!
- No flaming, even if the person is being annoying, at least try to talk it over through PMs, or even better, don?t say anything at all.
- Okay, it will be acceptable, but PLEASE try to use good grammar. I?m not trying to insult anyone here, but really, it gets annoying. Misspellings, we can?t help, but you can put periods and commas into your text.
- Powerplaying is even more annoying, so don?t do it!
- If your not having fun, or someone makes you mad, then leave! It doesn?t have to be forever, like if you?re having a bad day you could take off of the RP for a while, but don?t just sit around complaining.
