War. War never changes. What may instigate it may change from situation to situation, and new practices are adopted to the machine, but war itself will fundamentally never change.

The Pokémon Continent is broiled in unrest, as two factions, the Soliana and Galunia factions, expand their influence to neighboring territories, as various problems are thrown into the proverbial bonfire, as if to entice the two sides to fight, with more than a few Expedition, Explorer, and Rescue Guilds siding with either factions.

To compound the problem, there has been an increase in criminal activity, who are capitalizing on the chaotic times to do whatever they please. Understandably, it means the Guilds are a bit spread thin, some even more than others.


Here in a neutral territory, is the Town of Outset, which is situated on a peninsula, the town a thriving town filled with Pokemon and shops. To the north, up a plateau with chiseled-out steps from the bedrock, a tent that resembles a mountain from a distance, if adorned with various sutras , and has statues of dog-lions framing the doorway past the sentry floor gate.

This is the Outset Guild, with a rather humble Gardevoir as its guild-master, where here the Explorers affiliated with this Expedition Guild find this their home, training them in order for them to be first-rate Explorers and fighters. All are welcome to join, as long as their intent in being an Explorer is true. While the Guild is newer compared to the older ones dotting the territory, it nevertheless has a good reputation.

Out of curiosity, will Mega Evolution be in this, or, for that matter, any of the features from Gates to Infinity or Super Mystery Dungeon? Also, I'm wondering what the Soliana and Galunia factions are like, and if we'll be able to choose one to side with.
 
Mega Evolution will be a feature in this RP, but I'm trying to not make this too much like a video game.

As for Soliana and Galunia, now that would be telling. >:3c

Hey Kamen, you still taking on SU's?

May I ask, are the new recruit Pokemon all starting at 15?

The cut-off level for New Recruits is Lv. 10.
Click to expand...

It's in Joe's notes here, so no, the cutoff level is not 15. Furthermore, I'm not quite sure what level new recruits are starting, I want to say level 10, but that's really a question for the GM himself, haha. Hope I'm being helpful in some way?
 
Ah, I read it wrong. I did mean ten, and my question is exactly what you said, being, is it the level we start at. You was being helpful :)
 
@Alex64: Uh uh uh! Feint's a Lv. 11 move! Substitute it with a different move, if you would please!

@Tatsu: You answered finely!
 
I'll edit a sign up into this post in the morning if thats ok, im off to sleep for now.
 
I am curious for the older recruits, is there any special requirements for characters aside from the sign character form?

Also, can we use the special characteristic to give a little insight to characters such as backstory, aspirations, etc?
