Pokemon: Gotta Fuck 'em All! (OOC/Planning)

[MiscChaos]

I suppose I could do that, but I don't wanna steal the dude's RP or nothing. Still, in the interest of not having everyone wait too terribly long, I'll start writing up intros Friday if there's no word and post one up either still Friday or Saturday. Expect brevity.

[TheDaughterOfHades14]

I'm just gonna say, my editted character sheet is acceptable. >.>

[Thaedael]

Waiting too long already. I am just going to drop from this.

[MiscChaos]

Alright then. I won't force ya to stay if you don't want to. I'll give ya a chance to change your mind before I take JMaru off the Reserve List though.

[Thaedael]

It is fine, swap him in from the reserves list. My brother is down with the Australian virus that came to our city, so I am going to be busy taking care of him for the next few weeks. Toss in 40 hour labs each week, and homework, I don't have the time to join a game where the gm basically upped and left leaving you to pick up the pieces for 40 players. Jayjay can call me self-entitled all he wants, but I got priorities that don't involve ignoring what happens in my life for a game.

[MiscChaos]

Alright then. Hope your brother recovers quickly. And that those labs aren't nearly as bad as I fear. JMaru, if you're reading this, then you're in!

[TheDaughterOfHades14]

Am I in? >.>

[JMaru3]

Alright then. Hope your brother recovers quickly. And that those labs aren't nearly as bad as I fear. JMaru, if you're reading this, then you're in!

Well I hoped it would have been under better circumstances.

Thae I hope your brother gets better.

[MiscChaos]

Since Zeph isn't here to say otherwise, I will TENTATIVELY say you're in. He has override if he decides you're not

Name: Denieve Reinings
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Appearance:

Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Personality: Denieve is generally a mild person, cheerful and friendly to people to know but usually shy with people she doesn't know too well.
Home Town: Littleroot Town
Starter Pokemon: Treecko(Liz)
Background: Born in Littleroot Town, Denieve lived around Pokemon ever since she was a child, due to her mother and father being avid breeders of Pokemon, also entering the Pokemon they bred into the Contest Hall competitions. It was at the Verdanturf Contest Hall where she first came into contact with her currently much-loved hobby, photography. At the age of ten, she already had her own camera and frequently made the trip all the way from Littleroot to Verdanturf, via Mom's Flygon, of course. She soon grew discontent with simply photographing the Contest Hall contestants. She wanted to take pictures of her own Pokemon, too. She wanted to get out there like all the Trainers did, raising their own Pokemon and all that. Her parents were supportive, them having been Trainers at one point of their life too and sent her packing, but of course not before Deni had chosen her very first Pokemon from one of the breeding pens, a female Treecko that was the offspring of Dad's very own Sceptile. With Liz, her Treecko in tow and almost entirely no knowledge about the world before her, Deni set off on the grand adventure that was the life of all Pokemon Trainers!
Other: Deni still harbors her love for photography and tends to snap random shots of other Trainers' Pokemon! This has caused some slight misunderstanding sometimes. She carries along a scrapbook in which she dreams of filling with the pictures of all the Pokemon in the world, her very own personified Pokedex, if you will.

Forgot to say that I updated my character sheet, but I may not be able to play.

[MiscChaos]

@TOG- Well, there's the same problem as before: You don't have anything in the way of background so I don't know what exactly to type up for you. I can use a generic, non-specific intro, but beyond that, setting up events for you will be difficult without it. Also let me know for certain if you can go or not, alright? I'll have your intro post typed up just in case, but I need to know whether to actually post it up or not.

@Icaelus- Overall, your character sheet is fine and you have the same tentative approval DoH has, but, and I'm not sure if this was intentional or not, there's no picture for your character.

@Everyone else- OK, Zeph's deadline has hit, so I'm gonna work on everyone's introductions while I'm at work and try to have the IC up by 6 or 7 tonight. Again, as a warning, your intros will be brief since I don't have ALL the plans Zeph had for this RP and will be working with what I have in my own style. Expect chaos. I'm also thinking of creating a second OOC so that I can update everyone's character sheets on the front page instead of having to hunt through to find everything. Actually, I think I'll hijack the Backpack thread for this purpose. As long as it works... Actually, nevermind again. I'm gonna need that Backpack OOC a lot based on all the people I've got and it's enough of a mess as is with the extra comments in there. Also, I'll be dropping my character for now. GMing myself seems to me to be in bad taste.

[That_One_Guy]

Should I type a background now to help ya? I kinda didn't have anything at the time because I happened to have been busy. I'm still busy as hell, but not AS busy, so I can come up with something for him quickly.

[MiscChaos]

If you could, it'd help greatly. Go ahead and edit it into your character sheet and I'll pick it up later.

[Icaelus]

Picture's up, completely forgot about it when I was writing the rest of ze bio..

[MiscChaos]

Cool then. I'll get cracking now that I've logged where everyone's bios are on the thread.

[That_One_Guy]

Done with the background.

[MiscChaos]

A few things I wanted to let ya'll know in advance while I'm working on posts:

• I've changed Littleroot Town a little bit since it originally had 8 people living in it and just the people starting off there would make up half the population. Not much, but added a little lore and expanded the place. Further info will be given out in the post itself. Also, since it's still a small town, I assumed everyone from there had at least a passing knowledge of each other. I'm thinking the same will be said for Dewford Town residents since it's a freakin' island.
• Speaking of the island, the ferry will show up next posting cycle and you'll be dumped off at the destination of your choosing within it's route the cycle after that unless you wanna engage in conversation with someone. Check the map on the first OOC page to see it's route
• From the lack of mention of parents, I assumed Sagrell (JMaru) lived alone. Correct me if I'm wrong on this. It won't affect the post TOO terribly much, but it's just for immersion's sake.
• If it seems like I'm heralding ya'll into the same place... I am. Just to make things a little easier on myself for now. You can still choose to separate yourself from the pack those who this affects with no consequences on yourself. I just had to try

I'll keep updating this list as I continue my posts and make more assumptions. I'm done with Littleroot Trainers (except for Garian, who just submitted a history (Thanks again for that!)) and almost done with Dewford Town people, just to report on progress. Also, I'd like to remind everyone to post their backpack in the backpack OOC if you haven't done so already.

[dndman997]

are there still spots open?

[MiscChaos]

Since I'm kind of the impromptu GM at the moment, I'll say go ahead and submit a character sheet and I'll place it on the reserve list until a) Zeph gets back and takes some of this load off, b) I get used to GMing for 12 people, or c) I get a Co-GM.
