Since Forgotten - A PMD Roleplay - OOC

Creative Section Roleplay
1

Due to popular demand (Two people, including myself), and an unsatisfactory conclusion, I will be hereby re-instituting the old Roleplay: Time Gone By, with a similar overarching plot. This is a PMD roleplay, meaning it is a world of Pokemon with semi-sophisticated culture. Shall we begin?

Plot
Five years ago the world stood still. Or it would have been five years if there was any reason to keep track of time. Some would call it a paradise where there is no sleep, no hunger, no common troubles. It is a place where the strongest rule and the weakest sink into time itself, frozen with their world. To survive, one must simply have the will to continue. Lose that will, and the darkness takes you.

In this new world, there are those who seek to return to the old ways, to find a way to fix time itself. To others, this world is the only thing they could dream of, and they fear what may occur should it be brought to an end.

Rules!
Universal Rules

  1. We are looking for quality, but not for a chore. This is an RP, so it is of the utmost importance that you enjoy it. Try to put volume into your posts without overwhelming yourself. Try to improve yourself!

  2. Try not to take control of any other Roleplayer’s character without their consent or logic parameters.

  3. Be considerate of others, try to include as many people as you can, and look for people not involved in something if you can’t fit into a group.

  4. If you have a fight with another character, take into account that the other person is a combatant. Don’t leave them out, and DON’T react for them.

  5. Try to be productive! Seek character development and plot progression!

Character Rules

  1. You may have any Pokemon that is NOT a legendary. Legendaries are powerful, enigmatic, unstoppable beings of mystery and prestige and will likely be characters all their own. Reference them, use them as NPCs (for instance, I’m sure Dialga will be prominent), but try to avoid claiming them for yourself.

  2. Shiny Pokemon and Pokemon of different color are allowed, your Pokemon can wear accessories.

  3. Nothing in-universe moves without interacting with a living Pokemon. No wind blows, rain is frozen in the air, etc. etc.

  4. Try to keep your character counts under control, but multiple characters are allowed.

  5. Characters can have four distinguished moves. That said, combat does not have to be solely the use of moves, moves should be treated as spectacular actions.

  6. For all characters fill out the following Character Sheet:

Name: Booker
Species: Lickilicky
Gender: Male

Appearance:

lickilicky_by_SailorClef.jpg550×550

Special Attributes: Has a long tongue that can numb others, if he chooses.

Behavior and Personality: A true explorer at heart. Ever since birth, he was fearless wanderer. Though he may be the antithesis of fear, he is capable of showing extreme cautiousness if the situation need be. When not adventuring, he likes to sit back and make jokes with his friends. Rarely, when he is in a good enough mood, he will invite people to dance, obnoxiously. (And he always dances terribly.) Despite his dancing antics, he is a fairly serious person. Usually prefers company when exploring, although he does seem to injure his partners due to size. Rescue missions aren’t really his cup of tea. He favors the lack of time, though he understands the need for it to keep going.

Background History:
He grew up with a family in the cliff-side of the ocean. Captivated by the vast expanse of the world, he was inspired to explore it, looking for treasure. In his area of the world, he is relatively well known. Rumors of him may or may not have popped up in other places of the globe. In his recent missions into the unknown, he heard of a rumor that may have to do with the lack of time. Currently he’s traveling the world, looking for clues as to how it happened.

Experience and Prowess: Many years of exploration has given him top notch training. He’s learned combat from many, and has mastery of survival knowledge. In terms of intellect, his experiences have given him
wisdom superior to most. He refuses to use this side of him, however, as it makes the adventure less fun.

Other Information: Does not like soda pop.

Name: Jinx

Species: Marowak

Gender: Male

Appearance: Jinx differs from most other Marowak in that the skull that is his helm and the bone that is his club are both charcoal gray from some fire long ago. In addition to this, he wears a deep blue cape over his right shoulder, held into place by a bone-like shoulder guard.

Special Attributes: Jinx is an enigmatic being who was rumored to have lived for centuries even before time was halted. He skips in and out of legends and folklore until he disappeared near the end of the world. Each time he appears, he is rumored to be capable of changing himself invisible, though he himself would state that he is simply modest enough to go unseen as anything more than a shadow.

Behavior and Personality: Jinx is a blatant figure who exercises power in all of his actions. He is receded, and to the outside world would appear to be a loner. Despite this he is compassionate and willful, more than capable of stepping in between a victim and their abuser. His choice to travel alone is less for his own benefit, and more that he is reluctant to put others in the face of danger.

Background History: Jinx has appeared many times over the last 200 years during great events. The reason for this is simple, he led the Nightview Guard, an order dedicated to protecting the mysterious powers of the world from others and from the Unseen, who some would argue, the Guard served. How he came to the Guard is a mystery, and how he ascended so quickly remains clouded in stipulation. What is known is that he saw the Guard through both its golden era and its ultimate demise. When legends of the Guard ceased, he disappeared from any public eye.

After time was frozen, he set out with the last of his order, a few companions, seeking Temporal Tower. However, their mission failed, for they discovered Temporal Tower was not the issue. After being embroiled in a terrible battle, Jinx was cast away wounded and alone.

Experience and Prowess: Jinx is a powerful warrior. He wields his bone club as an extension of himself, and has the practice and know-how to sweep away most enemies. That said he is more concerned with power, rather than with defense or cleverness, sure that he can overpower any opponent he might face. Only when facing certain defeat does he diversify his tactics.

Name: Tilati
Species: Yanma
Gender: Female
Appearance:

yanma_by_missmanga14.jpg500×600

Special Attributes: Tilati , like all Yanma, is capable of looking 360 degrees without turning her head. She is a great flier that is adept at making sudden stops and turning midair and uses her flying ability to quickly chase down targeted enemies. Also, she can flap her wings so fast that she can shatter glass using the shock waves her wings generate.
Behavior and Personality: Tilati was normaly very carefree before time stopped. However, once time never continued to move, she noticed some of the stronger pokemon taking out the weaker ones who barely had the will to continue. After that, Tilati began to take things more seriously. She tends to keep an eye out for thing out of the ordinary.
Background History: Tilati grew up in a quiet forest grove. Tilati wasn’t much of a battler until she saw some weak pokemon get attacked by pokemon that were obviously stronger than they were. Angry that she couldn’t do anything for them, Tilati decided to start training so she could be able to protect those around her.
Experience and Prowess: Tilati is beginner when it comest to experience. Even over the five years she spent training in her forest home, Tilati knows that she is nowhere near strong enough to take on the threat that created the now time-less world.
Other Information: Her attacks include Sonic Boom, Pursuit, Tackle, and Quick Attack.

Sorry for the delay, I was hoping that giving this time would draw more people in. That said, the RP will remain open as we move forward. I’ll give you two another day to post any more characters you might want, and then we’ll start moving out.

Speaking of which:

Name: Natio
Species: Xatu
Gender: Male

Appearance: Natio is typical in appearance to any other Xatu.

Special Attributes: Natio, like most other Xatu, has the ability to see the future through staring at the sun. Like his companion Jinx, he has been rumored to have lived for many years past the regular life of a Xatu. Unlike Jinx, he does not appear to skip in and out of history much

Behavior and Personality: Natio is often guilty of dreamily staring off into the ether. He tends to be distant from those around him, and always seems oddly disconnected from the physical world. Though he seems kind and is always willing to offer advice, he tends to do it in such a vague and non-descript way that it rarely gets through to people.

Background History: Very little is known about Natio’s past except that he played a major part in the Nightview Guard, and acts as a key adviser to Jinx. Before Jinx began appearing throughout the world, Natio was unknown, however when Jinx arrived in a region, he was almost always followed closely by the elderly Xatu. Natio’s personal history seems to stretch farther back than even Jinx’s, and he seems to have been alive far longer than the Marowak.

Experience and Prowess: Natio’s skill in combat is unknown because he rarely fights. That said, he has shown exceptional telepathic abilities, having a psychic mind more powerful than most any Alakazam. Most of Natio’s ability lies in the sheer amount of knowledge he has. From legends to history, he seems to recount almost every day since history began.

Other Information: Natio enjoys a nice cup of tea with Oran juice added.

Could I join? Excuse me if I am bad though, because I’ve only started RPing in forums for maybe a week on a different forum.

Name: Ally
Species: Espeon
Gender: Female

Appearance: (Use an image or write it out) A young and cute looking Espeon with a large red bow under the part where her tail splits.
[spoilerLike this but with a red bow under the tail split:1bq6nna6]

[/details]

Special Attributes: Like all other Espeon, Ally has the ability to predict the weather, and her opponent’s next move. She can often foresee a bit into the future, although she rarely uses that ability, and has yet to master it.

Behavior and Personality: Ally is a curious, and shy Espeon. She has a distrust against other pokemon.

Background History: Once, Ally had lived in a large family of Espeons, Umbreons, and all other sorts of Eevee’s evolutions. She had lived happily back then without worries. Her happiness faded into fear and distrust when her family was attacked by houndoom and houndour. Ally knew nothing about why they did it.

Experience and Prowess: Her large family had many Espeon’s and she learned much from their tutoring. Although she is very young, she knows much about how to use her telepathic abilities. Although not yet mastered, they are close, and Ally is a fast learner.

Other Information: Ally will hide wherever possible, and unless a pokemon shows extreme kindness, she will hide there for even a week to avoid being seen by them. If there were to be one so kind, even then, it would take a long time for her to regain trust in pokemon again. She got her bow from her mother, and never took it off as a reminder of her family.

I hope that’s good enough? :joy:

Of course, the more the merrier. I’ll get around to confirming everyone before we launch on the morrow.

As an Edit: Espee, you’re application seems alright except for one regard. As a PMD roleplay, humans are an ancient, dead civilization, who’ve been gone from the world for at least a thousand years. (Except for the odd one who seems eternally destined to save the world).

Got rid of the “bad” parts and edited it a bit.

Not “Bad” just out of place.

That said, we’re ready to move on. At the moment, everyone is approved. I’ll be posting the main topic up shortly.
