DG Class End Of The World Scenario [OOC/Signup]

[Coloursfall]

A monthe ago, all was right with the world. Trainers and their Pokemon all over the world going about their business, fighting, training, and playing. People working to earn a living, children going to school. May Day celebrations were in preparation, and all of Unova was abuzz with busy people and Pokemon.

Unbeknownst to them, far out in thee sea outside of Castelia City, the Castelia Project was underway. Working to find a source of endless power, the project was nearly entirely secret. Until five minutes to midnight on April 30th, the facility housing the project underwent a Level 7 Meltdown Incident, blowing up in a spectacular mushroom cloud and lighting the Unovian sky a blinding white. 80% of the population was wiped out instantly. Half of the remaining 20% died from radiation poisoning, the ensuing panic, or other injuries over the course of the month.

Now, Unova is cut off entirely from the rest of the world, and the destruction even spreads into the neighbouring Orre and Kandia regions. The landmass was thrown into chaos, the remaining survivors divided into groups - Pokemon and humans split apart, competing for what little food, water, and shelter remained. Trainers were forced to abandon their Pokemon by either their peers or the wild Pokemon roaming the destroyed lands. Others had been separated by the death of the trainer, or his Pokemon.

There is no way to contact the other regions, no way to escape the ruined land. There is no sign of rescue, and all that remains is to live until the rest of the world decides to help.

But where there is not help, there is still hope.

Rumors tell of a powerful Pokemon, said to bring victory to any who may possess it - the legendary Victini. The whispered words go on to say that if the survivors were to find this Pokemon, she would rebuild the ruins of the once-beautiful Unova to their former glory...

[NightGhost]

Name: Shadow
Age: lvl 75
Gender: male
Species: Houndoom
Appearance: a normal houndoom but fur is silver and bones are red, he is missing his left eye due to the meltdown.
Personality: is loner for most part no one ever sees him because he acts more as a watcher and healer, he hunts at night for a small meal knowing how to save his portions.
Moves: shadow ball, dark pulse, thunder fang, heat wave, and shadow force(usually as a escape plan)
History: was your normal wild houndoom, had a loving pack and was so happy; he had a great life, a loving mate, and 2 great children. After the meltdown he lost it all by then he found Victini, he became great friends not knowing the power she held. He now acts as a median for victini for if someone must meet her.

 

[Dark Shocktail]

Name: Lysander Fox
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Species: Human

Appearance: Lysander stands at six foot, 3 inches tall. His blonde hair is tufty and curly, and often looks a mess. He has a button nose and green eyes, with slight wrinkles along his tufty eyebrows. He's quite strongly built and his weight is largely muscle, not fat. His clothes are tattered following the blast, consisting of dark grey jeans, a red long sleeve top with a black mathematical pattern on the left shoulder, heavy boots and black fingerless gloves. A necklace of Pokemon teeth, claws and feathers hangs around his neck.

Personality: Quite grumpy and surly, his temper is known to be volatile. While his threats may appear empty, he still has a nasty bite when pushed far enough. He has a lot of pride, and will often shoulder his problems in silence which leads to him being even surlier. He prefers action to idle talking and will often be the first to head into a dangerous situation. While stubborn, he can acknowledge when he's been outvoted on a situation. Even to his allies or dearest friends he can seem abrasive, but there are little cues that give away how he really feels about them.

History: Lysander started as any kid does at ten, as a pokemon trainer. He claimed a Charmander for his first Pokemon and, over the years, raised through the ranks to become a Flying type Gym Leader. His pokemon included the ones he used in the gym and those he had raised from childhood, all of which he (privately) adored. When the meltdown struck he was training in his gym - his pokemon protected him from the blast. Not one survived the impact, even though Lysander tried his best to revive them using whatever medicine he could salvage. He remained at his gym for weeks in his efforts, until finally accepting that he couldn't save them. From each he took a small momento - a claw, or tooth, or feather - and gave them the best burial he could, to save them from scavengers.

Other: His necklace features the symbol of his gym badge (a long, thin tornado ending in a point), a Charizard tooth, a Purrloin claw, a Nidorina claw, a Lucario handspike, feathers from a Honchkrow, Sigilyph, Staraptor and Skarmory, a patch from a Drifblim and some fluff from a Lopunny. These were all the pokemon he had. He carries a falconry glove with him.

 

[Exo-Raikou]

Reserving for now

 

[Coloursfall]

Milla my Milla is accepted, and Exo reserved.

Name: Shadow
Age: lvl 75
Gender: male
Species: Houndoom
Appearance: a normal houndoom but fur is silver and bones are red, he is missing his left eye due to the meltdown.
Personality: is loner for most part no one ever sees him because he acts more as a watcher and healer, he hunts at night for a small meal knowing how to save his portions.
Moves: shadow ball, dark pulse, thunder fang, heat wave, and shadow force(usually as a escape plan)

After the meltdown he lost it all by then he found Victini, he became great friends not knowing the power she held. He now acts as a median for victini for if someone must meet her.

...I have no idea where to start with this, though. I'll try.

1. First, you ignored my insructions for the form entirely.
2. Age, not level.
3. You don't need to include moves. Houndoom doesn't even learn Shadow Force.
4. It's much too short.
5. ...No, you don't know Victini, end of story.
6. The appearance strikes me as...Gary-Stu-ish, honestly. Reworking could help there.
7. Read my rules again.

...in other words...yeah no.

 

[Glace]

Reserve! Would do now but i'm on my itouch.

 

[Mai]

Reserve please!

 

[Lili]

Name: Onika
Age: If she was a human, she'd be around twenty-six.
Gender: Female
Species: Pokemon/Rapidash

Appearance: That's really it.

Personality: Onika is very alert to minute details and her surroundings, always watching and waiting for something to happen. She's sad to admit it, but to her it seems like the meltdown somewhat contributed to her life, giving her a sense of adventure and a reason to live. She mainly just wants to find a male within her egg group so that she can help repopulate the region. The rest will be PO'd.

History: Onika was born to and raised by the two leaders of her herd. Her life was somewhat happy and normal, and she enjoyed it very much. One day, she was caught by a young trainer just starting her journey, and bonded with her closely. Then the meltdown had to happen. It ruined everything. Her trainer was one of the many killed by the radiation. Her herd had been executed as well. Having nowhere to go, she met a young Vigoroth named Yaru. Yaru told her about the legend of Victini, and Onika was determined to find Victini and find a way to get her normal life back. She's now traveling with Yaru on her quest.

Other: fff listening to too much nicki minajjjjjj


Name: Yaru
Age: Dieciocho
Gender: Female
Species: Pokemon/Vigoroth

Appearance: Instead of being white, she's an ashy-black, a sign of some radiation that has entered her body. Other than that, she appears to be a normal Vigoroth.

Personality: Like any other Vigoroth, Yaru is very aggressive and hyper-active, always bouncing off the walls and talking very fast. She never stops moving, even in her sleep - she twitches as she dreams - because of her heartbeat. However, she's quite friendly to Onika, always following her around and playfully annoying her. She enjoys having company around once she gets used to someone.

History: Born in White Forest to a clan of Vigoroth, she was the exact opposite of Onika. She was the omega of the clan, at the very bottom of the ranks, and was abused often. She because aggressive as a way to fight off her attackers, and often cheered herself up by wandering off alone into the deepest parts of the forest. One day when after she had been attacked, the meltdown occurred. She and a couple of her clanmates survived, though they parted seperate ways. When she met up with Onika, she told her all about the legend of Victini and was just happy to be accepted by somebody, so she gratefully joined her in Onika's quest to find Victini.

Other: I plan for her radiation to get progressively worse throughout the roleplay, and she will become more discolored along the way.

 

[Blastoise Fortooate]

Reserving a couple of characters.

 

[Glace]

Name: Drey Burk

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Species: Pokemon/Cubone

Appearance: Though he once was an average-looking Cubone, the amount of radiation he was exposed to obscured his appearance. He now has several cracks on the skull covering his head, as expected. Drey's skin came to lookas if it was burnt. A lot. It's black with dark red patches in some areas, mainly along his back. His eyes are red with a tint of green with smaller pupils than before. He lost his left hand immediately and gained a small (but still noticeable) tumor-like patch on the stub where his left hand used to be.

Personality: Unlike many of species, Cubone is actually quite sociable, though that has calmed itself down ever since the incident. In relationships with friends he either depends on them or they rely on him, depending on their situations or personalities. Drey has an extremely dry humour, though the few jokes he would laugh it he usually does not understand. Overall, he's a pretty nice guy once you get to know him, but he is very touchy about his true feelings and dislikes speaking about them.

History: Drey had the practical normal and content life. He had the friendly family, just purely awesome friends, and the distant yet true love life. Every day was the same routine: Breakfast, hang with friends, family tim,e quality time with love life, letters or messages to other friends or family in distant places. A few weeks prior to the now well-known incident, he faced a terrible tragedy, as his father passed away after drowning at a bridge worksite. Drey shut himself away from the world a bit after that, but who could blame him? His mother. Laaving him alone despite his siblings wanting to stay, his mother was furious. After this, Drey just fell apart and lost everything but his love and best of friends. Here, he realized being depressed and shut off would not assist his trouble, and as Drey was beginning to regain his momentum in life, Bam. The explosive incident occured, and all was lost. Everything.

Other: Not that I can think of at the moment ~~ Will update if I think of anything

Also, on the rules. You wanted us to go to those two pages? Well, it won't let me in unless I sign up, and I really don't feel like doing that. Is it a necessity or...?

 

[Coloursfall]

...o_O well that's weird. It's not nessisarry, just some detailed RP guidelines. I'll try and fix it so that people who aren't signed up can see.

ETA: I think I fixed it. Tell me if it still doesn't work.

 

[Glace]

Still no. Took me to a different-looking page, but still no luck. By the way, was I accepted?

 

[Coloursfall]

grrr. I'll keep trying then.

And yeah, you were. :3 The list in the first post is updated.

 

[Exo-Raikou]

Name: Zrantox

Age: 4831

Gender: Male

Species: Pokemon/Dusknoir

Appearance:

. That's the best way to put it, although the antenna on his head looks almost shattered, and the stripes on his arms have more of a jagged look.

Personality: Zrantox, having lived for as long as he has, has a very deep cynical side. He has seen mankind repeat the same mistakes over and over again, leading to an nigh-endless cycle of violence and death (and as a Dusknoir, he has had the burden of guiding the deceased to the next life, which means that he is more affected by the cycle than one might think.) This meltdown, as far as he cares, is yet another result of mankind's haughtiness, so he feels no pity for the event. Besides that, he can seem aloof at times, and only interjects into a conversation if he feels that it isn't going in any direction.

History: Zrantox spent the better part of the last few centuries wandering the world without any real purpose, only interrupting this wandering to escort the occasional spirit onto the next life. He was content with this way of life, as it gave him a better chance to see just what sort of mistakes mankind was making that cost so many lives. He only rarely befriended anyone during those times, and often left them so he wouldn't have to see their natural lifespan end (and thus, as the closest Dusknoir, he would have to be the one to escort them). When the meltdown occurred, he was in Unova, and thus the antenna on his head picked up on the deaths - and the sheer number of deaths was enough to practically shatter the antenna, and almost made Zrantox comatose. Once he eventually recovered from the shock, he made his way across the region, and in doing so learned of what just caused the deaths. He heard of the Victini legend only recently, and is now trying to link up with another group, in accordance with the "strength in numbers" idea.

Other: Yep, he's back (I can't help but make it my own fault that he's my Ensemble Darkho- *shot*). I'll probably have another character up later. (Would a Volcarona be acceptable?)

 

[RespectTheBlade]

Reserve for now, please.

 

[Dark Shocktail]

Exo, your profile looks good. Accepted.
Respect, you got yourself a reserve.

Although at this point double Pokemon Signups are closed. We just need at least one or two more humans just to balance up the numbers a bit. The top post will be updated by ze Cherry Bomb himself a little later.

 

[Arylett Charnoa]

I'll reserve a human spot.

 

[Blastoise Fortooate]

Name: Roger Dotson
Age: 16
Gender: ♂
Species: Human

Appearance: Roger's defining feature is his bright red hair; medium-length and curly, it's what most people notice about him first off. Less noticed are his blue eyes and thick eyebrows, as well has the multitude of freckles that cover his cheeks, arms, and other miscellaneous body parts. Rogers fingernails are long and ragged, the latter trait matching the disrepair of his clothing: a pair of worn sweatpants, a long-sleeved shirt, and two pairs of socks. He also wears a dingy pair of boots and rubbery worker's gloves. Overall, roger is tall and, like most, skinny.

Personality: Roger is, most often, an tough sort of person to please; he doesn't automatically dislike you, but it doesn't take much to get there with him and it's hard to claw your way back up. When he does like you, however, Roger is a friendly if quiet young man with a no-nonsense personality and a kind demeanor. He's reserved around everyone, though, so he doesn't really want or allow close friendships anyway.

History: Roger used to be a twin; his fraternal sister, Luisa, died in the blast along with their trademark minun and plusle. The pair had been into double battling in their younger days, but their different styles of training were difficult to reconcile and so they parted ways gracefully, going on their own journeys. The blast had hit her location far more than his, but he had lent his plusle, Rigor, to her for use in a small competition. Pokémon-less, family-less, and utterly alone, Roger set out on his own.

Other: Giving up my other spot.

 

[NightGhost]

Name: Shadow
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Species: Houndoom
Appearance: Fur is a silver, his muzzle, paws, and tip of tail are brick red, Bones are dark blue, he is also missing left eye. This horns are red at tip and blend into a dark blue for rest of horn. His eyes are red with black curved lines in them( look up naruto kurunia fir the look if the eyes)

He has tried to find places to fit in but they force him to leave for many reasons. He travels alone either because his appearance scares other away or because they try to kill him.
Personality: He is a very kind person but his appearance deters pokemons ad humans from approaching him. Due to the meltdown he had almost lost eyesight using dark aura to help guide him. He hopes to one day find someone who can help him see again.

 

[Dark Shocktail]

Arylett, you've got a reserve slot.
Blastoise, the profile looks good and thanks for picking up a human. You can still have a Pokemon character if you like, as you can have two spots. =)
Shadow...I'm sorry, but I have to address this profile.

Well this is radically different to your entry before. You realise you didn't have to completely change your characters personality and background, aye? Anyway. Your writing is sub-par. It's obvious you typed this out and didn't re-read it. Basic spelling errors and poor sentence structure are abound. I've only edited this enough that it passes for basic English. And that's not considering the content...

The only creatures I've known to have bones that aren't white are creatures with exoskeletons. Dogs, like a Houndoom, have endoskeletons and therefore have white bones. His appearance largely seems to be a recolour for the sake of looking unique. Also, leading people to look up an existing character in your description is generally considered poor writing. When I did look this up, the search engine corrected the spelling of "Kurunia" to "Kurenai". The images I did find didn't match your description of the eyes as there was nothing truly unique or special about them, besides them having a change of hue towards the pupil (Image One - Image Two - Image Three)

The background is so lacking in detail. Why was his father forced out of the pack? Why did they murder his mother? Why is he always made to leave or is it purely because of his appearance? Why would everyone try to kill him on sight, and how is he meant to become part of a group searching for Victini if that's the case?

Your personality is actually only two sentences - the first and the last. The rest is about his eyesight. All I gather from this is that he's kind and wants to see again. No detail, no flaws in his character, no quirks. It's all still far too short, even if you plan on working on this character throughout the course of the roleplay. Has his past had no effect on him? Does he still approach others despite being shunned his entire life? Hasn't watching his father flee for his life and his mother be brutally murdered effected his personality at all? How did his life change with the nuclear blast?

Overall, you need to redo this. By redo it I mean make it longer, include far more details and check it over before submitting it without second thought.
