First, I'm going to wait on your que for bringing in Cloud into their world and Broly, as I sai, will be completely (sorta) different and will not come in till much later which gives you pleanty of time to think about what you want to do with Bio. Aside from that, I'll post Lyra and Bon Bon tomorrow regardless of if you've posted Berry (I'd do it tonight but I'm really tired now ) Third and lastly, here's the link to the quiz I want you to take. I've already pulled up the source code and whomever you get will be the third important character for the pokemon RP. You'll be playing Meowstique and I'll play Absol. The "third important character" will be introduced before Absol does and after Meow. Is there anything special you want me to incorporate into the story before I start setting things in stone? Any special pokemon you want filling specific roles or the like? Tell me in response to this.

PS: I went into the source code of the pokemon quiz and was able to copy all the possible answers for it. I'll be using at least one iteration of each of these characters with one of them obviously becoming the third main character.

I'll post a character sheet of Meowstic and Bio here then. I'm also going for the female version of Meowstic if that's important for your story. I still don't know what to do with Bio. I'll wait for your post with L&BB before posting Berry, she'll just be "shopping" around in casual day to day way.
I'd like Goodra to have a roll in the story and maybe Sneasel. And scarfs, always liked the scarf reference for Pokemon Explorers.
I'll do the quiz and post my results next.

HAHAHAHAHA I got Charizard. We'll use that result since I had other plans for Onix. In the meantime, I'm working on re-installing the OS on my desktop and laptop (laptop first) so there might be a period when I'll be too busy or simply incapable of updating. I'll try and finish one computer before I start the other though and smooth over the transition.

Incognito tricked little Ripple to wear the necklace that he found in the Everfree Forest, with promises that it would help her with her magic. Something she dearly desired and for a time it did help her. She could finally start using her magic and feel what it was like.
But soon after she and her friends met Incognito, things started to go wrong. The first sign came when the mayor visited the school and Rei, the griffon girl, had to be called aside. Her parents had suddenly disappeared. She cried as she left the school to stay with other ponies until they could find what happened to her parents. The same thing happened two days later to Autumn's parents and then Cloud's parents and soon the little town was sleeping in fear. Every day more and more ponies started to disappear and the Mayor arranged an emergency meeting. But before that took place the mayor and his wife also disappeared. And then Miss Rularu who had been looking after the children since the second disappearance. Finally only the group of friends were left.
Sad and scared the group turned to Incognito for help, but his attitude had changed and it was soon clear that he was the one behind the disappearances. And Ripple learned that he was using her own magic to do it. She threw the necklace away, but it was already too late and Incognito could use the necklace even while it wasn't around Ripple's neck. And in front of her, her friends started to disappear one for one, until only Rei and Cloud was left.
As Rei started to disappear Ripple lost control of her power. It was even stronger than Incognito had foresaw and her desire to help her friends triggered it. She vowed to protect the world from the villainous shadow as her eyes began to glow. Incognito started to panic as he lost the powers he had gained through the necklace and it turned against him. Incognito disappeared and all the ponies and parents reappeared in town, back and safe. But when everything was done Ripple was nowhere to be found and neither was her parents. She had sacrificed herself to save everypony. In a place between time and space she had made a prison for Incognito which he could never escape. But she had to be there and was a prisoner herself. She couldn't bare leaving her parents behind, mourning for her, and instead brought them along with her, but kept them frozen in time, to protect them from the shadow. She couldn't protect herself against him though and soon a twisted exterior of her insecurities took her place and became the pony known as BlankFlank.

Okay, scratch that whole idea for Cloud's friend. I'm going back to a previous idea I mulled over for his friend and doing that instead. Now Cloud is a year older than the girls and his friend is going to be a year older than him and she's a mare. And since she's a girl this will also mean him hanging out at the girls dorm is more believable, since he hangs out there with her.

Sweet. What should I already know about her, is if their friendship still that young?

Post by Bio Plus on Sept 18, 2014 14:51:54 GMT -5
Yep. Their friendship is still young. She's pretty educated. At times she leaves the school to go back home to Canterlot where her father asks her about her studies and gives her advance classes. She hates history. Her father is a history professor. She's a pegasus. And her name is Daring Do. And although she does classes that would lead to archaeology, it's not her passion, adventuring is.

I take it Daring will show up tomorrow? Or will she appear some other day?

Post by Bio Plus on Sept 19, 2014 1:34:19 GMT -5
Yes, she'll show up tomorrow while Cloud is at the girl's dorm, since I'm going to end this day anyway.

Okay, after 6 hours of typing straight, I've got Absols completed character sheet, complete with Bio. This should give you all the limitations I have on your character (though you still have complete creative freedom and I'll even change some of my CS if it comes to that). At this point, I believe I've left it open enough that I think you can fill out your character sheet fine and still be able to do what you want. I'll warn you ahead of time, I typed this up in the terminal so the bright screen wouldn't hurt my eyes at 2:30 am (even this screen hurts to look directly at right now) and the story does start with a tragedy. I don't play these characters often, but this one is necessary to the story. Hopefully I don't overdo it, though I probably did.
What follows is my character and what I've got for your character sheet:
Broly's Main Character
Name: Absol
Age group: late 20's
Gender: Male
Physical Description: Absol doesn't look any different from any other Absol, except for a few things that do set him apart. One thing of note and the first thing to catch most pokemon's eye is his broken horn. A third of it appears to have been broken off and upon closer inspection there's a crack running down another third of it. His entire body is also covered in burns, though his long hair keeps them covered. Other then those physical defects, the only other thing of note is a black claw he keeps on a string around his neck. The claw is his most precious posession and he won't even let Meowstic touch it.
Personality: Absol is extremely goal oriented and has a vengful streak. When he's not with Meowstic he can even be cold, calculated, and even downright mean. When he's with Meowstic, however, he displays a love and caring that one might expect from a brother or father. Having raised Meowstic since she was still a little Espurr, he truely cares for her and has made sure he's always there to defend her and that she can defend herself if the time should come.
Bio: Then he was still young, Absols mother died in a forest fire, the same fire that gave him his extensive burning. Both him and his mother felt the disaster was going to happen but didn't know it's nature or cause. They warned as many as they could, but could never have forseen what would actually happen. A group of fire type pokemon came through and laid waste to everything. To protect him, his mother had to sacrifice herself. He carries her claw with him wherever he goes on the string around his neck. After the disaster and in the rubbel of his forest home, Absol awoke with his mother still carressing him. In their last moments, few words were spoken and many tears were shed. Her final words were, "Child. Remember your ability is a gift. And gifts were meant to be shared and used." are still etched in his mind to this day and this is his saddest memory. All of this has been told to Meowstic time and again, and the heroic tale of his mother is like her bedtime story. What Meowstic doesn't know is the events that immediatly followed that inccident. In a blind rage at the loss of his mom, Absol single-handedly attacked the fire pokemon that burned down his forest home. He didn't kill anyone, but severely injured many of them to the point where most of them never fought again. This fight was also where he injured his horn, and it's a daily reminder his him losing his cool. As a cover story, he told Meowstic that the broken horn was a result of the stampede from the forest fire. Still young and lost in the big wide world, Absol wandered from place to place as his senses guided him. About a year after the fire, he stumbled upon a legend. One that says you could gain great power by collecting the 6 key pieces and obtaining the Ultimate Orb. He decided that this would be his lifes mission and made a good deal of progress. When he discovered the first of the 6 guardians, an Eevee, and had his tail handed to him, he realized he would need to be much more powerful to fulfil his dream. In the meantime, he had proven the legend to be more true then just a legend, though he kept this to himself and Meowstic, making her swear to secrecy. Now is the time I discuss what you're probably thinking by now. How did Absol meet Meowstic. The story of their meeting starts where the last part left off. Broken and defeated, Absol needed to find a way to train himself. To do so, he followed his senses to whatever natural disaster he could find. He was in the right area and warned the populace accordingly. Given the proximity to the mountain and the lack of a pillar of smoke or a river, Absol assumed the impending disaster was a rockslide, and that it was. Absol dodged the falling rocks to the best of his ability and even smashed a few as well. He did well enough, until something caught his eye. There was an egg bouncing toward him. He caught it and had to try harder then ever to carry it to safety. He was able to do so and after finding saftey was most surprised to find the egg hatching in his hands. Next thing he knew, he was holding a baby espurr. He stuck around the forest he'd helped out with the rockslide until he found Espurrs parents at the mountaintop. He lived in that town for quite a few years until Espurr wa a Meowstic. He and she trained together throughout her life and both of them were as powerful as can be. Absol told Meowstic about how he was going to leave to fulfill his lifelong dream and get the orb. He asked her to come with him, and that's where our story begins.
(I apologize ahead of time for general badness from this post as I'm really tired right now and not thinking straight any more. Consider this a second draft before the final copy is executed.) B

Okay, let me try this. I'm just going to give a rough bio.
Meowstic grew up alongside Absol, learning from him and getting to know him. Meowstic can at times be difficult to get along with and to understand. Her mood can change very fast from one to another. On one side she's quiet, aloof and almost never smiles. On the other she's playful and tries very hard to get others to smile. She's very active, gets bored quick and can't sit still for long. Even though she's pretty strong thanks to training with Absol she almost never shows that strength and most of the time only uses her powers to play pranks on other pokemon.

This is nice. It's a little basic and if like there's no to catch up to the same point where Absols did. It probably wasn't clear, but our story starts where Absol left off, with him asking her to join him on her quest for the six keys and ultimate orb. I expect she'd go with him and would want to know what drives that decision. On a side note, more about her relationship with Absol would be nice too. How does she view their relationship and does she have any friends in their forest home?

It's hard to say what their relationship is like exactly without having played across Absol for a bit. Except for the basics you already mentioned. She sees him as an older brother and admires him. As for the rest. She doesn't really have any friends in their forest home. The others know her and they get along well enough, but because she mostly keeps to herself or hangs around with Absol she doesn't have real friends. And she goes along with Absol because for her the journey would be more exciting than staying in the boring village and to keep Absol from being reckless and look out for him.

Perfect. I'll try and flesh out the Character sheet so it matches everything you've said thus far. It's important for me to have the character sheet as a backing for the other characters who are based partially off of her. I'll warn you right now, Eevee and his eevelutions will play heavy roles in this roleplay, as companions and obstacles. You'll see what I mean while we play the story. Also, this will likely be a very VERY long campaign of sorts (which could be good or bad, depends on how well I gm it and how it plays.
