    Private/Closed Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead (discussion thread)

    Nice. Well written. Candy seems cool. She has an appropriate moveset for the gym and she's a giant furball. I don't have a problem with her being physically special in two different ways, because a) she's a giant furball and b) she's such a "normal" species that it kind of balances out. Bree...

    (OOC: Okay, let's do this.) Lefty was now rummaging through the vegetables with his horn. There was somethings about this that... Ah, you see, there it is: a big wooden crate. Good find eh? The younger woman, noticing the interest the Rhyhorn and the fast running ranger have for the wooden box...

    Private/Closed Don't tell mom the gym leader's dead (RP thread)

    Zoe arrived at the menagerie first. The common space is a mess. A couple of the smaller critters started tossing hay around, and Hieronymus the Quagsire had apparently decided that this was now some sort of pillow fight. This in itself created such a commotion that every last creature in the...

    You can. And if there happens to be anyone else waiting in the wings working on a character sheet or such they're welcome too. But I am setting the thread banner to closed for the time being. If everyone stays active that's quite enough players for this kind of story for now. So, welcome.

    @Shadow_Pup: Not to rush you, but in case you hadn't noticed: we started.

    Private/Closed Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead (discussion thread)

    The gym does provide a bunch of civil services. I couldn't think up a complete enough list, but the suggestions you make are good, and on top of that there will probably be a bit of an anime-style expectation that people have of gym leaders to help provide emergency services. You making up...

    Private/Closed Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead (discussion thread)

    If we continue at this pace I might have to close the RP at some point, nice. Character accepted! But... She has two prevolutions to pseudo-legends. I will ask you not to get their power up too quickly. Since your character is already good at real time battle strategy the combination has the...

    Ask to Join Pokémon Ranger, Almia goes old school. RP thread.

    OOC: Ooooooh, I somehow thought you wanted to split off from the rest of us south group and then meet back up with us at the drag mark (how did I think that?), but we're running back towards the north group. Aaaaaaaaaaah. Dayum, that's a serious run. Okay... South Jake figured a trainee in...

    Private/Closed Don't tell mom the gym leader's dead (RP thread)

    The woman, well groomed and wearing a power suit, stared at the small group as if she thought they were crazy but she absolutely wasn't expecting any better. One of them wasn't even fully awake yet and seemed convinced that the rest of the world should be living by his schedule. Another one was...

    Private/Closed Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead (discussion thread)

    That's worldbuilding, there are always details you don't put enough thought into. I was imagining more of a small monastery in scale rather than a large campus. (10 people rather than 10.000, which is how you're now in charge.) But normal people houses are good. Could provide a bunch of cool...

    Private/Closed Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead (discussion thread)

    I kind of assumed gym people lived at the gym. Although now that you mention it I have no idea why I assumed that. If you prefer you can have a home of your own or a small appartment nearby. So, challenge one, get to your job in the morning. Don't worry about the NPC's, I'll find a way to make...

    Private/Closed Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead (discussion thread)

    It probably wasn't the clearest description from my side. I did like your impressions of the other PC's. It's a good way to build up some group stuff.

    We're two posts in and I'm already confused. :D When are you coming back into the gym Scrub? Do I need to get these mysterious NPC's ringing the bell out of the way?

    Private/Closed Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead (discussion thread)

    No, it's fine. No need to change stuff. In other news: we're live, over here. (Yes, that was a bit under rather than over 24 hours.) If any of you want to you can write a slightly bigger opener for yourself, for instance about where you were and what you were doing during the events of my post...

    Welcome to the RP thread for “Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead”, a throw jokes at the wall and see what sticks comedy about wacky hijinks, fateful misadventures and everything going wrong. The discussion thread is chilling out over here, that thread has all the background info. EDIT: Signup...

    Private/Closed Don’t tell mom the gym leader’s dead (discussion thread)

    Okay, welcome. And I thought the opening post I had prepared was a long read. Good details. A Larvitar with Earthquake overdue for evolving would normally be the sort of thing that makes my (soon to be) overpowered character sense tingle, but from your writeup I believe you'll manage playing it...

    What is your 1st Pokemon you trained to Level 100?

    I think it was a breeding project, a rapid spin Armaldo. Just to try that sort of thing out. In a fan game. EV-trained on pure Blissey, which is how it got to level 100.

    Going live in a bit over 24 hours. Signups will stay open afterwards.

    Ask to Join Pokémon Ranger, Almia goes old school. RP thread.

    Going by the suspicions Frank and Taylor displayed, Jake shot into action as well. "Lefty, run that wa- oh, right." He took a moment to recompose himself, and decided to run that way himself. Just a few dozen meters, to get another vantage point and spread the group out in case of an ambush. It...
