So, I’ve been thinking of starting another role-play and here is it, it is not a journey or an academy thing. I tried to make something that was a bit of both, this is Castelia City.
It’s a big city, how you came here and why isn’t a questioned. People rush by you without a second glance, they need to do what they need to do they don’t have time to stop and chat. To you this is home, famous for its skyscrapers, ports bringing goods from all over, and delicious ice-cream. Here you are trying to make a living, become a better trainer, and sometimes just have fun. How you do this is up to you, you could work at the docks knowing each ship by name, be an apprentice at the gym with a burning passion for all things bug type, or are you an intern at a famous company wishing you could be at the top? How you survive here in the city of Grandeur, it is only up to you and the choices you make.
Rules:
1. You cannot already be a famous trainer like champion nor have every single badge, also you cannot be an established business man/woman; you need to be practically unknown, this RP is about growth you’ll get there eventually!
2. No godmodding or whatever you want to call it.
3. Romance is encouraged but what is frowned upon is PG 13 romance. It is very possible your character came to this city is to find the love of your life. Tennising or whatever it is isn’t strictly outlawed but I don’t want thirty pages of only that.
4. No sob stories, my parents died and then Team Plasma killed my bother and I’ve been homeless eating scraps for ten years and had to teach myself to read!
5. No, shinnies, legendries, ridiculously strong pokemon.
6. In this RP I don’t want everything to go perfectly right for your character, but good things do happen.
7. Personality, give your character faults. I will not accept eats too much and overly cares for their friends, really.
8. Just to remind you again, I don’t want your characters to come from powerful families be the son of the champion or elite four, not ever an gym leader, this RP is about a couple of nobodies making it in the most powerful city in Unova and becoming somebodies.
9. You may have three characters, but only if you can keep them straight!
10. Cussing and swearing is frowned upon but you can do it if you use it sparingly
11. In your sign up put, My Character doesn’t eat to much!

My Sign Up,
I’m going to try to do three.
Name: Cassandra Day
Nick name: (optional) Cass
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Appearance: Brown-ish red-ish hair held back with a cheap plastic Casteliacone shaped hair clip. She wears an old brown coat over a rainbow striped tee-shirt, with Jeans, and old chocolate stained shoes, that were once red. During her shift she wears a Bright blue apron over her normal clothes. She is 5’6 and sometimes slouches especially when she is tired, she skin in fair except on her face where it is burnt 99% of the time. She wears a light shade of lipstick a bit of blush and a tiny bit of mascara, all bought at your local drug store.
Personality: She is determined and is always looking for a way to accomplish what she wants done. She grew up in so much silence that she talked to fill the space, so she sometimes talks loud and for a long time, she also can’t keep secrets due to talking so much. She can also be distracted by noises that intrigue her that she stops what she’s doing and forgets all about it.
History: Born and raised in Anville Town, she disliked the quiet. She looked forward to the weekend when all the trainers came and it finally livened up. But only two days was not enough for her, a traveler told her the wonders of the city, all the hustle and bustle, and noise, how she longed for noise. When she was old enough she set out on the subway and made it to Nimbasa and explored for a while, catching pokemon and seeking the city life she longed for, although it was a busy town it wasn’t enough, so she continued on finding exactly what the visitor was talking about Castelia City.
For a few days she wondered the city like a typical tourist, saw all the sights and heard all the noise, and loved it. Then she faced a problem, if she wanted to stay she would need a home, which required money, which required a job. For a day or so she tried to find a place with a low rent, while searching in vain down a dark alley she met two thugs, she was scared of them at first, but they turned out to be nice guys. They were happy to give her a place to live at a considerably low cost. It was an old garage with two rooms and a small bathroom, it was a start. What she loved best about it was a café was next door with a man playing beautiful music; she visited often and came there for her meals, due to a lack of a kitchen, she got to know the guitar player and the owner well. They helped her get a job at the Casteliacone shop. She finally had all the noise she needed.
Pokemon: (Only three or less) Vanillite: Worry some
Snorunt: Brave for its size
Larvesta: Clumsy

Other: My Character does not eat too much!

Name: Jeffrey Cornelius
Nick name: (optional) none
Age: (12-17) 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: He wears a traditional black and white suit, and black business shoes. He has a few cuts on his arm and a broken leg, and several bruises all hidden by an illusion created by his pokemon. His skin is a medium color not too tan not too light. He has sapphire blue eyes, and black hair. He is about 5’9 feet tall, and stands like an army soldier. He is thin and is able to slip from place to place, to sneak around so to say.
Personality: He is a bit cold and distant, used to having enemies not friends. He also doesn’t like people to know he’s hurt and even uses his Mismagius to hide his injuries. He laughs at ironic things, and says things in a convincing tone. He lacks pride, so his smallest mistakes in his mind could end the world, which a few times it would have.
History: He was the Looker’s apprentice, part of the International Police. He used his Mismagius’ illusions to disguise him rather than use costumes like his instructor. He trained hard and was sent on special missions in Unova to investigate Team Plasma. He had finally received his own assignment; he was on top of the world. That is, of course, until things became difficult and he had become involved in a hostage situation, as the hostage. To get him back they had to release one of the sages they had captured, when he was released he was in terrible condition, he could hardly stand. He wanted to continue the mission but it was deemed too dangerous for someone in his condition.
He was devastated; he felt that they weren’t letting him continue not because of his injuries but the mistake of getting captured, a shame he might never recover from. Then they gave him the final blow, he had to go on vacation, until he was better, which he knew would not be for a year or two. They sent him a ticket to Castelia, and arranged a job for him at a local café, as the owner. He now spent his days standing, more or less, behind a counter handing out free lemonade to newcomers and taking orders for coffee. And he felt lonely; until guitar player would occasionally come into his shop and play music which attracted costumers. He decided to hire him and his profits soared. Then he offered a new girl, who had come from a small town, his complementary lemonade. She started to talk and talk about how she came here and how she needed a job and kept going on and on about well, everything. He used his influence to help her with landing a job and let he have free lemonade every time she came after work. He started to feel less and less unhappy, but the guilt was still there.
Pokemon: Mismagius: his partner can make illusions so people see what he wants them to see.
Occupation: (Gym assistant, business person, maybe unemployed, etc.)

Other: See other, other

Name: Andrew
Nick name: none
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Personality: He is a very quiet person, and has an air of mystery around him. Nobody knows much about him, and that is just how he likes it. He can be brave and stand up to thugs often found in the city, but often gets hurt trying.
History: Andrew wouldn’t talk; he was declared a physiological mute. He wouldn’t say a word to anybody; most people thought he was rude and strange. The doctors said he had some kinda of mental trauma that wouldn’t allow him to talk. He had no way to communicate with the world, nobody ever taught him sign language, so he used his only other alternative; music. When he played on his old guitar only then could he speak, show his feelings, by singing them. He couldn’t make a sound any other way. He tried to find a job in the music business but he wasn’t trained and off the streets, people didn’t give him a second glance. He played in the streets of the great city and sometimes in a café. The owner gave him a job, and he has been playing there ever since. A girl started to come in regularly who would talk endlessly to him, and he would listen, if he wanted to make her stop, he would start playing and she would shut-up instantly

Name:Gregory Tempest
Nick name:Greg, Temp
Age:16
Gender:Male
Appearance:Gregory stands at 6'9 and weighs around 120lbs. Gregory's most common outfit is a open buttoned blue plaid shirt with a white t shirt underneath and jeans. Greg's messy blonde hair is short and very light in color. Despite his hair looking like it hasn't received a brush, Greg can often be seen sloppily running a comb through his blonde locks. Greg is far sighted and sometimes wears glasses for reading. However, Greg dislikes wearing glasses most of the time.
Personality:Greg is Castelia's resident "cutie", many of his female coworkers at the Castelia Daycare Center have crushes on him and they often gossip about how cute he is. Greg appears oblivious to the girls and their crushes. Greg is very dense and often needs hints. Greg is generally a well intentioned goofy guy who likes to crack jokes and break the ice. His goofy nature can sometimes cause him to be insensitive to girl's feelings. However, Greg is a loyal friend and will always cheer up a friend when they're down.
History:Greg's mother was in high school while she was pregnant with him and his twin. The pregnancy was unplanned and she attempted to abort the twins. Unforunately, Greg's unborn twin sister was killed but Greg managed to survive and was born with Cerebral Palsy. Greg has to wear leg braces and walks with a limp. Greg spent most of his childhood in an orphanage. He was adopted by an elderly couple by the names of Margaret and Joseph at the age of nine. Recently, Joseph passed away from lung cancer and Greg has been working at the daycare center to make money for him and Margaret. Margaret is struggling in debt and their house is in danger of being reposessed.
Pokemon:Dwebble was a Pokemon given to Greg when he was eleven years old by Joseph. Clefable was the very first Pokemon that Greg ever hatched, she works with him at the daycare center. Lillipup serves as more of a pet, he mostly stays at home with Margaret.
Occupation:Worker at the Castelia Day Care Center

Other:Greg doesn't eat too much!

My character doesn't eat too much:goof:

Name: Eliot Nadel
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: At exactly six feet two, Eliot's a little tall for his age. He has fairly long blue hair, mostly because he hates the barber's shop (He's worried about getting his ears chopped off.) He usually dresses in formal styles, usually wearing a tuxedo vest, button up shirt, tie, slacks, and dress shoes. He always wears a pair of pink heart-shaped sunglasses, and has uncommonly large blue eyebrows. Finally, a wizard cursed his family to always have kitty ears. So he has kitty ears.
Personality: Eliot is a hedonist to the core. He loves women (Whom he shamelessly flirts with), money (Which he spends lavishly), and candy (Which he eats little but.) However, he can be genuinely nice, and even selfless at times. He is extremely spirited and outgoing too, and likes to make friends with everyone. He also loves kittens, and is truly dedicated to spreading love throughout the world.
History: Eliot's first Pokemon was a Purrloin. It came home one day, chewed up by a Houndoom, and while he got it to the Pokemon Center, the nurses couldn't heal it. He was crushed. He loved it more than anything. He sulked for weeks, then finally decided what he wanted to do: To become a nurse, and save every Pokemon, to stop anyone from feeling the pain he felt then. It also showed him how life is short, and led him to enjoy it more.
Pokemon: Glameow, Meowth, Skitty
Occupation: Nurse

You are accepted, but really kitten ears, only thing bothering me.
 
I'm saying I don't remeber there being wizards who's sole gole in life is to curse some family with having cat ears. They can wear cat ears, not a problem.
