By the way, I think you nailed Lady here.

Welcome back to Pokécharms! We've recently launched a new site and upgraded forums, so there may be a few teething issues as everything settles in. Please see our Relaunch FAQs for more information.
The Dark Tournament
- Thread starter Astralkitsune
- Start date
Its noon here
I may have slept in a tad
Thanks again for the compliments Ny, interesting what you learn when you're trying to make sure you have the details right haha

Also it seems like everyone is converging in one spot or would I be wrong to assume that?
Some are, some aren't. It seems Loz's character (Sorry, I forgot the name
) Salem, Cassie, Efret, and possibly Shade are meeting up. However, Gerald and Lin are probably not meeting up with anyone for a while, I have idea what's happening with Floyd and the Ice champion who's name I also can't remember, and finally Damien and Mina have a bear problem.
Cassie passed by Salem and Aidinia yes but they haven't met up yet technically. Poor Megan is an NPC and not even a Pokemon trainer. I fear she may just be a sacrifice that Astral plans to torment Aidinia and me with. And Efret is a bit of loose canon at the moment who's not making a lot of sense and not replying to comments.
If you find your way to a river you might see a trainer and his Hyena float by if you're looking to expand your group. Gotta catch 'em all, right?

Btw, I'm still looking for songs I can assign Orion, June, Anubis, Eclare, and Crystal. I just need to get a better feel for their personalities. Unfortunately being what they are isn't making it any easier for all by Crystal, and with that I mean they're not Gen1 Pokemon so I don't know anything about them. But we'll get there.
I'll try really hard to work on some post later. Haven't slept since getting off work and wife and I decided to do our 3 year relationship anniversary early
Suicide Squad is definatly the best recent DC movie btw
Agreed that's what I saw yesterday haha
By the way, this is the direction they ended up taking, I felt like I should add a visual representation because the words just didnt convey it when I re read it
Also my laptop kept correcting Ecarte to Acarte for some reason so that was a pain to deal with, I felt like I corrected it all in the post though haha
I need pen and Ny to draw me a map of the island as the three of us see it 
Oh, that was just to represent the clearing they were in, my bad hahaI need pen and Ny to draw me a map of the island as the three of us see it
Yeah, I just felt like the way I put it into words wasn't doin' it, y'knowNow do the rest of the island
Nah I'm kidding. It's usually easier to move people when you don't have an exact map of where everyone is.
Is it to late to (say sorry?) join? Could I put in a post how my character has been hiding in the trees for most of the rp so far. If I can I'll make the bio.
I vary in detail depending on rp but I do make some mistakes on grammar. Point me out on those errors and I shall almost likely, if not definitely fix them.
I especially like writing about horror and dark themes explored through that genre.

Personally I would like to see anybody that joins to adopt a decent amount of details when constructing their entries.
But it's not my call OmegaCarvineplays, you'll have to wait for Astralkitsune to wake up.
In the meantime, have you been enjoying the story so far? What were highlights for you?

At this point I would like to see good solid bios and some meaty backgrounds for new players to join.
As for the your post Ny sorry dude commas are my kyriptonite

What? Don't just say that, say you'll try at least
But I understand though. For the longest time I really had no clue how to use comma's. But there is this nice thread called 'Back to School, kids. Grammar time!' which I found very helpful. To be honest, I still wouldn't be able to tell you how to use comma's. Just, when in doubt, put one down.
Blame the early 90s American education system or more specifically North Carolina early 90s education systemWhat? Don't just say that, say you'll try at least
But I'll give it a shot or have my wife proof read IF I am not at work
ok so home and at computer again almost 26hrs no sleep but starting a super multi post
Here's my character proposal. Enjoy! (Bows and giggles XD)
Name: Jasper Heart
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Appearance: White hair due to contracting Marie Antoinette Syndrome after being caught by Team Galactic (If you don't know what the syndrome is I'll tell you now. Long story short, it is caused when the pigment in a persons hair dies after being exposed to severe torture and/or abuse. It is named after a French Queen imprisoned for some reason I can't remember.) Striking purple eyes with flecks of sea green. 6'1" and very athletic. A sinister and uneasy aura seems to emanate from him. Multiple scars and burns are concealed by his clothes
Clothes: Black Jeans stick to his legs down to below his ankles. Grey socks made for hiking and Black worn down sneakers/trainers with white laces hacked with a knife to make smaller. A shirt that is nearly black from soot and mud and all other debris imaginable. It is covered by a Black hoodie ripped and sun-bleached in many places. A black backpack hangs over his shoulders, held together by navy blue bungee cords as the straps have broken. Inside he has a variety of berries and cooking utensils, cooking being his new found skill. A map of every region is concealed within a pocket and a dawn stone is wrapped in a reaper cloth, a memento he received when he left his adopted family of ghost types. He never actually earned money, just living off nature and rewards from rangers for helping them. The reward for this tournament was too enticing, even for a person who lacked most social skills.
Background: Not knowing what civilisation was until he was 15 he has limited vocabulary. He was raised by ghost type Pokemon for most of his life and is considered half wild. He grew up with Nyx the litwick who he caught after being introduced to the outside world by a Pokemon ranger. He worked as an unofficial Pokemon ranger with his partner Nyx. He was captured by Team Galactic after being seen as a useful tool for controlling Ghost type Pokemon to arm their ranks.
Pokemon: Nyx the Chandelure
Moves: Fire Blast, Solar Beam, Confuse Ray, Hex

Are we assuming pokemon have a higher pain tolerance and faster than human healing, I was thinking about that for these fights and while im not saying they have Wolverine class healing(superhero with crazy healing for those not acquainted) minor cuts and bruises would be gone in a days time or so? I just felt like that would kind of make sense for them because when they arent in dire situations they're literally shooting fire at one another or fighting until they pass out
And need to be taken to the Pokemon Center immediately or they won't recover. Pokemon battles are like cock fights, but then not to the death... usually.
Ok kiddies going to catch a few hours of rest since up past 30 currently. I will make more post for those I missed when I wake up.
Go sleep, Astral. It's well deserved.
White haired men unite! We shall teach the world about the power of smiling!
Good entry Mega. I really felt for Orion when he became so emotional over the thought of letting others down. Beautiful, character defining moment there.
If I get accepted good luck getting Jasper to smile. Haha he isn't a natural white. He's EVIL!!!!! Natural whites step to the side. Jasper's going to rock the feels.
Thank you haha, I hope it wasn't too hard to make out, I went back just now and corrected any accidental typos, I feel like I could have gone forever without picturing a Lucario crying though, that made me sad
As shade washed up on shore much further down stream, his unconscious body was pulled out of the river and into a nearby cave. Dr. Nevashi stared at the young man laying on the stone before him. He sighed, "Well when you say out loud you would give anything for a hot young, half naked man right now, I certainly never expected to be answered." The Dr. Immediately began to examine the young man making note of each injury and what to treat first. Again he spoke outloud, "Severe laceration of the supra-left trapezius muscle. Just who did you insult my young friend.?" He continued, "Hmm adema around the site, discolored epidermis, bradycardia, shallow respiration, muscular deterioration. You my friend have been poisoned by a Nidoking." He pulled a single pokeball off his belt, "ok Kiwi come out this young man needs our help." A red light flashed and a Togepi materialized. "Togepriii" Dr. Nevashi smiled, "ok Kiwi first use heal bell so we can fix that nasty venom, and then follow it up with wish." Kiwi nodded, "Togepriii.." it said in a cute voice and then it's shell vibrated and a clear bell like tone rang out. Shade's skin pallor immediately began to strengthen and his breathing quickly stabilized. "Togeprii..." Togepi wadeld over and kissed Shade on the cheek as it shell began to glow and reflect a rainbow light off the walls. Shade's shoulder wound knitted itself up and closed. Dr. Nevashi smiled and picked up Kiwi in a hug, "great job Kiwi."
I just want to point out that I absolutely loved this scene. Nevashi is such a cool colorful character, and Astral, you did a fantastic job here making him seem every bit as capable a pokedoctor as we expected him to be. The fact he has a Togepi of all Pokemon is just perfect, and it's name is Kiwi! How awesome is that? Brilliant scene, I absolutely love it.
I have to agree. I just love the variation in this rp.
Togepi was always a Pokemon I had on my team in Johto. Togekiss with a certain move set and you're (excuse the pun.) set!
Ok new post up for burb
Oh god, I have some catching up to do...
First of all, I'm incredibly sorry for not posting these past few days. I'm in the middle of moving house with my family so it's kinda hard to find Wi-Fi at the moment.
Secondly, I won't be able to post at all tomorrow cause I'm hopping on a plane to Queensland. However, after that, I should be able to write up a thing or two.
Also, I'm on a phone right now so please excuse any spelling errors that might occur.
