Long ago before our time, humans did not battle and collect pokemon. Each human formed a bond with a single pokemon, sometimes two. They lived in peace, the only battles were over simple conflicts, and the occasional war. However the humans fought alongside their partners. Technology was non existent, and life was simple and about living day to day to live. The most trouble they had was when a man had taken control of some of the strongest legendary pokemon. Humans were frightened, however a young group stood up to him, bonding with the other legendaries, and saving the world.

The RP:
In the RP we will be the young warriors that bond with legendaries. We will each find our own working together, while fighting the evil. And once everyone had found their legendary pokemon, then we will of course have the final battles.

The World:
The world is simple. There isn't battles often and there are no kingdoms. Farms exist, as do villages, and even tribes. Shields are wooden, armor and swords don't exist. They are rare and few. Most weapons are farmers weapons, as well as spears and knives, and even bows and arrows.

Rules:
-GM word is law
-No godmodding, bunnying, or autohitting
-Pg-13 please
-Be respectful
-Reservations are 24 hours
-Feel free to ask anything you are curious about
-Have fun

Name: Lucius Rafless
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Appearance: Lucius has long sage green hair pulled back with a black ribbon, and his bangs hanging loosely in front of his sage green eyes. He is average height with a fit build. For clothing he wears a long sleeved white shirt, and black pants tucked into brown boots. He wears a necklace of a shakuhachi with a leaf wrapped around it. He carries around a brown satchel.

Personality: Lucius is calm and cares greatly for nature. He observes what is around him and prefers to avoid conflict. However if he feels he needs to then he will fight. Generally he tries to calm others down by playing a grass flute or his shakuhachi. He is much attuned to nature, and listens to it often, preferring a quiet life to loud life of villages. He doesn’t interact with other humans often, but knows how to interact with them to an extent. He especially likes grass types.

History: Lucius was born into a tribe on his father’s side, his mother was a woman that came from a village. Despite her background, she was a weaker person that spent much time in nature, fitting in well with his tribe. Growing up he was close with both of his parents. His father taught him how to play the leaf flute while his mother taught and gave him the shakuhachi. Both taught him a lot of about nature, his mother even had medical knowledge passing it on to him. When he was eight his father was killed during a conflict. His mother passed away at 13 due to illness. At fourteen during a trip into a forest, he injured himself and almost was killed by an ursaring. However a roselia saved his life. She took care of his injury and then played its grass whistle for him. After that he became close with the roselia, and often ventured far from the tribe. At seventeen he went out on his own to explore farther than he had ever been, and has been living for two years by himself.

Partner: Middlemist-Roselia
Legendary: Virizion
Other: He knows medicine to an extent. He can play the shakuhachi and grass flute.

Name: Azure Cerise
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Appearance: Hopefully a picture will suffice;
anime_girl_with_black_hair_and_blue_eyes-1920x1080.jpg
Personality: Azure is a generally laid-back girl whom appears shy and introverted to most. She's cold and rigid when she's being annoyed or angered, but besides that, she generally gets along with people. She is somewhat offputting, and tends to lean on sarcasm more than she should. She possesses the ability to remain calm during mass amounts of chaos and disorder, which sometimes seems abnormal to some. Besides that, she hates cocky people and those who think she (or anyone, really) is inferior.
History: Azure grew up alongside the shoreline of Hoenn, and for the most part, grew up normally. She lived with her mother, whom she remembers was a very strong woman. Due to the absence of a father, Azure often did chores around the small plot of land they had owned. There was one time when she was gathering winter fuel, when she had seen an injured Electrike in one of the forest clearings. Seeing as it was in need of care, she dropped her bundle of sticks and took it back to her little cottage. At first, her mother had disapproved of her new companion. However, the little electric dog began to grow on her, and soon has started helping out with some of the chores Azure was tasked with. She began calling him Flux, and soon enough the nickname stuck. After many years, her mother died of old age. She was grief-stricken, but she still had her beloved Electrike. There was a time in which bandits had tried to rob their little cottage. Flux had sent them running with a few consecutive Sparks, and so Azure eventually taught Flux how to battle. Around the time of her 15th birthday, Azure's Electrike evolved into a healthy and intimidating Manectric. Present-day, she decides she no longer wants to live in fear of the powerful man - and so she joins the other people in rebellion.
Partner: Manectric
Legendary: Kyogre
Other: Theme song is 「 UNRAVEL 」 , she has thanatophobia.

There's no such thing as too much RPing!

Name: Victor Mortis (Puns are always necessary)
Age: 11
Gender: Male
Appearance: Victor is a short kid. He has white hair and unusually pale skin, as well as rather prominent cheekbones. He usually dresses in reds or grays.
Personality: He always has a pleasant smile and a calm voice...no matter what. He also has a fascination to what other people may consider offputting: Death, Diseases, Injuries, things like that. He is still a very nice kid, albeit with a very twisted sense of morality.

History: His birth parents died when he was very young, so he was raised by some gravediggers, who turned out to be rather neglectful. Desperate for his approval, he tried helping him at their job. Over time, he found out he enjoyed the work, even though his parents weren't that appreciative of it.

Those gravediggers later died in what Victor swears is an accident. He buried them himself.

Partner: Trevenant
Legendary: Yveltal

Other: Has rather poor eyesight.
 
@Heartist; Accepted, though it would be nice to know what she wears
@SudoWooper; Rejected. It's lacking...like everything. There is very little personality, history, and even appearance. I would like to see more. Also considering the world which is explained in the first post, there wouldn't be gravediggers since the time period is not one of graveyards.
 
Name: Leif Erikson
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Appearance: Leif is from the warrior class of his tribe, and it shows. He's very tall, at about 6'2, and has a toned build. Like many of his tribesmen, he's got pale skin. Unlike many of them, he has straight red hair. It's a bit long, and a section of it often falls over his left eye. His face is has a smattering of freckles. He usually wears a fur cloak over a cloth tunic and pants. When he expects to go into battle, he has some light bone armor. He also wields a wooden club roughly three feet long, studded with sharp stones. Normally, he keeps it strapped to his back with a leather belt.

Personality: Leif's culture has a high regard for strength. Those who cannot fend for themselves have few to no rights. Thus, Leif himself considers strength the ultimate virtue. His people had no qualms taking slaves, though Leif's time in the east, as well as personal experience back home, has made him question if this aspect of his culture is okay. Despite this, he does not believe in excessive cruelty towards those who cannot fend for themselves, but he has nothing but contempt for those who refuse to try and rise above their station. He's extremely honorable, and will never lie, cheat, or steal. Foreign cultures fascinate him, and if he were alive in modern times, he'd probably be an anthropologist. Thus, he's more likely to be accepting of traditions others might find strange.

History: Leif is not from Kalos, Unova, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Kanto, or Johto. He comes from far to the west, in a very cold part of the world. Among his people, slavery is common. His father was the chief of his village, and had two slaves. Leif befriended them, and was going to help them escape. However, he was caught. Among his people, most crimes are dealt with by exile. He could only come back after bringing something of great value from a far away land. He had heard legends, however, of a land far to the east. So he flew upon the back of his Gyarados, and has been exploring since.

Partner: Gyarados
Legendary: Groudon
Other: He's from whatever the Pokemon world has as an analogue for northern europe. Basically a viking 'cause vikings are rad.

Ah, I don't want to be that guy. But people have been disposing of corpses via burial for thousands upon thousands of years. The Egyptians had elaborate periods long before recorded history. If memory serves, I think I read in one of my books that slaves were often killed for the purpose of being buried with kings, along with jewelry crafted to be worn during burial. Some neolithic cultures have records of having buried their dead among their weapons. In other words, the practice of dedicated grave sites has existed since the stone age.

I would like to reserve Meloetta if that's ok? (I'm pretty sure music existed before the creation of the regions, but that decision is up to you...)
 
So here's possibly my first role-play (if accepted of course).

Name: Semaj the Conqueror
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Appearance: Semaj is five feet, had light skin but darkened due to the sun and has long black hair. His nose has been described to be beak-like. He wears a feather outfit supposedly with the power to repel creatures of the sea, he carries a bow and arrows. Like the rest of his fellow islanders, he doesn't use boots of any kind.
Personality: He seems to act like a brave fighter but is actually a coward, even though of his cowardice he will defend his companions with his very life. He loves the cold and would want to live in a place that is always cold, but he has never left the island so for all he knows the island is the entirety of the world.
History: From a warrior tribe in a southern island, Semaj's father was a local hero unlike his only son who is coward who let's others fight his fights but it all changed when he heard of rumors of lands outside where terrible fiends live and have mighty treasures hoarded. Getting of the island with his childhood friend Feraligatr, Semaj's goes to find glory and be a true hero.
Partner: Feraligatr
Legendary: Articuno
Other: The character is basically a barbarian but without a sword, so if there is loot he might find one.

Question, is there like dungeons and such?
 
Name: Tarik I'ssa
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Appearance: Tarik has tan brown skin. He has a pair of goggles that he will wear when sandstorms are especially bad, along with a beige colored jacket and cargo pants. He prefers to walk barefooted, but he keeps some sandals just in case he needs them. Tarik also wears armguards and fingerless gloves, and carries knives for self-defense. His hair is short and black, and he is fairly tall, around six foot, along with dark brown eyes.

Personality: He's lighthearted for the most part, but harbors a deep sorrow (more at history) that he hides from people he meets. He's pretty quiet and awkward for the most part around other people, with the exception of his immediate family. He relates much better to 'mons that humans. Tarik is quick to laugh, but also has a difficult time letting go of grudges when he gets angry. Forgiveness isn't exactly apart of his vocabulary. Ghost-types are his jam. He gets very touchy when people ask pointed questions and can be unintentionally evasive.

History: Tarik was born in the deserts of Hoenn, where for his early years he traveled around in a nomadic lifestyle with a small band of people. When he was around seven years old, he wandered into a cave, where he found a rather strange looking statue with patterns, dark and inactive. He touched it, and the creature sprung to life, seeming panicked and feeling forgotten, like it had overslept or something similar. Tarik was able to calm it down, and ever since he's been close friends with the pokemon he found (Golett, since evolved). When he was foraging with his father, they became separated in a unusually fierce and brutal sandstorm. Sentinel (his Golurk) managed to grab Tarik and get him to safety before the storm got truly intense, but his father got lost despite his goggles, and breathed in too much sand. Tarik has ever since blamed his father's death on himself, though his mother tells him not to. He has a sister (Astraea) who's good friends with a Mawile, and his mother has bonded with a Cacturne since their father's death as a way to find a new friend.

Partner: Golurk

Legendary: Regirock
Other: Pretty good at throwing knives (though the ones he has are a bit crude due to available materials) and doesn't eat any animal products. Tarik is about getting as close to the earth as possible (as it calms him), so he doesn't harm animals and walks barefoot as much as possible, though the others in his travelling group find him a bit odd.

Note: Goggles are obviously makeshift from local materials and not modern, thus no rubber/hi-tech glass, etc.

May I join?
Name: Tîa seviñara
Age: 10
Gender: female

Appearance: very small, with long, pink ringlets. Her eyes are green and her skin is pale. Her features are delicate - long lashes, a small, pointed nose and pale lips. She is tiny for her age, only about four feet high. She usually wears boy's clothes - a black tunic and leggings with black leather boots. She keeps her hair in a loose plait.

Personality: Tîa is quiet and shy, inclined only to speak when absolubtely necessary. She places all trust in her Espeon, and will not trust anyone who Espeon dislikes. She is a masterful thief and liar, but most people believe that she is innocent and naïve due to the way she acts.

History: Tîa grew up in a small mountain village with her father. She has not seen her mother since she was born. However, when she was eight the village was struck ablaze by a thunderstorm, with her as the only known survivor. Having no family or home, she fled to the city where she was taken in by a gang of thieves and met with an eevee, now her Espeon. She is widely known and respected among the criminal network for the fact that she has yet to be caught in two years. As some of the thieves that she lives with are drunks, she has seen her fair share of brawls, and can hold her own in a fight.

Partner: Amythyst (Espeon)
Legendary: Mew
Other: Traumatised by the fire that took her father's life, she is terrified of storms. From mainland Europe, Northern Spain kind of area.

@Kimono Dragon; @Bironicus; Reserved for 24 hours. And of course there is music.

@Boshi234; @Argan; @Flip Flop; Accepted. If you are asking about dungeons like in a castle, then no, though some tribes might have their own form of a lock up place. If you mean dungeons like in the PMD series, then of course. Also a reminder, the regions do not exist. There are merely continents at this time.

@Pokemon Trainer Calvin; @Prez; Your reservations have expired.
 
Name: Cassandra Randolph
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Appearance: Cassandra is short with blonde hair that she keeps in pigtails, with bright green eyes and freckles. She wears a forest green tunic, brown leggings, and usually goes barefoot. Her arms, hands, legs and feet are rough, calloused and covered in scars from her life in the mountains.
Personality: Cassandra is naturally quite violent and rowdy, and expressed extreme hatred toward those who flaunt their wealth or simply have more than the people in her tribe. If someone has more wealth than average, she takes a Robin Hood approach, along with her trusty companion Absol. She's quick to fight, and if provoked, won't back down. She especially isn't afraid to fight dirty, using the most pragmatic methods to beat her opponents. She believes that the callouses and scars on her body represent a tough and tempered spirit. Despite being violent, she's quick to make friends, and never turns a blind eye to her friends.
History: Cassandra started her life in a forest tribe. When she was little, her tribe relocated to the mountains for reasons she still doesn't understand. She would always wander off by herself, and she made a habit of stealing from neighboring tribes to provide for her own, despite the fact that it got her in trouble. One day, she got caught stealing from a tribe, and in her panic to escape back into the mountains, nearly fell off the cliffside, only to be saved by a wild Absol. The Absol then chased off her pursuers, and escorted her back home. As thanks, she took it in and fed it, and the Absol never left her side.
Partner: Absol
Legendary: Latias
Other: She has a case of perfectionism that stems from OCD. She also carries around sharpened sticks and stones as tools.
 
Take 2

Name: Jeffrey Heist
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Appearance: Jeffrey is 5 foot 2, and weighs 140 pounds. He is built rather lean. He has short, messy dark-red hair and copper-color eyes, as well as tanned skin. He wears a grey scarf made out of cashmere, dark green robes, and sandals.

Personality: Jeffrey is naturally talkative, loud, and tends to ramble at times. He's very much very much of a showoff, and rarely takes anything seriously.
He also has a rather big case of kleptomania, as well as a hoarding problem. He likes having things, and is violently protective of whatever is "his", whether it be food, money, or even people.

History: Jeffrey was born in a desert tribe. There, food was scarce and expensive, so one had to either work hard or starve to death. Since he was too lazy to work, he instead took to stealing. On his first attempt, he was attacked by one of the owners pokemon, a combee. After being stung a few times, he was successfully able to bribe her into not attacking, and even joining his side and helping him pull off thefts.
Eventually, it got easy enough for him to pull of heists habitually, making it a hobby of his.

Pokemon: Vespiquen
Legendary: Azelf

Other: A rather good actor.
