I hope you like walls of text....

Sarcus peered both ways down the street before stepping out of an alleyway. He had seen a few Church of Dawn acolytes wandering about earlier, and while they probably wouldn't know who he was, he was deeply suspicious of the organization and avoided contact with them whenever possible. As he looked around, he quickly checked himself. A simple great ball hung at his belt, securely clipped there. He patted it reassuringly, more for his own benefit than his partner's. He was only in town because he was meeting up with a correspondent, and he didn't feel like having this particular conversation recorded and analyzed by Dawn's regime. He had heard rumors of a new Team, Team Dusk, one that, for once, was interested in doing some good - not that Dawn saw it that way. Otherwise, he tended to stay out of larger cities. He folded his arms in a seemingly innocuous gesture as he leaned against a building, checking the knives sheathed under each arm. He deplored killing, but after the Church showed up to "reeducate" his family, he wasn't taking chances. He checked the note he had written for himself, with his correspondent's address written on it.
Before he could continue on toward his destination, however, he heard quite a bit of noise coming from the nearby Church conclave. Curiosity defeating caution, he started to approach the imposing building, sticking to the walls of the nearby structures. He stopped momentarily to release his partner. "Abs... ol," his Absolution said as it stretched, unused to confinement.
"Shh," he hushed the Absol. "Don't draw any attention to us." The Pokemon gave him a slight glare. "I'm just being careful, no need to be like that." The Pokemon rolled its eyes. Ignoring it, Sarcus crept forward toward the building, taking his time. Absolution continued to stretch out his legs behind him. He eventually made it up to the conclave's doors. He glanced back at Absolution, and seeing that the pokemon was calm, he straightened up and nudged the door open, wondering why there was no one there.
The answer to that particular question was fairly obvious. The interior of the building was a complete disaster area, as if a tornado had swept through it. What happened here? he thought. He stepped inside, alert for any dangers that might appear. He noticed a few things. One, none of the acolytes noticed that an unknown individual had just stepped into their conclave. Two, there was sand everywhere, along with furniture in all sorts of improbable positions. Third, several of the acolytes weren't moving, and the rest didn't seem much better off. He noticed one acolyte sitting up with a cloth tied around her eyes. He was fairly sure he knew why, so he mustered up some courage, and strode up to her. He asked in what he hoped was a commanding voice, "What happened here?"
The acolyte coughed, then, in a voice raspy from the dry air, answered, "Tyranitar. A group of people attacked us out of nowhere. Probably those Team Dusk bastards. . ." she trailed off as she lapsed into a coughing fit. He quickly turned around and headed out of the building eagerly, Absolution following him. He noted with disgust the several acolytes with bloody gashes across their chests. As he walked out, he nearly stepped on what appeared to be a severed hand clutching a Pokeball. He shivered, then exited the building. He ducked into a nearby alleyway, then slumped against the wall. Team Dusk did that? I know what the Church of Dawn says about them, but I hadn't realized that there was truth to it. He straightened and stared at his Great Ball, now in his hand. Can I really side with these people? People willing to murder teenagers? He sighed, and clipped the Great Ball back onto his belt. Sarcus sat down, and continued to think, oblivious of the world around him. Absolution settled down next to him, and he unconsciously began to stroke his partner's pristine white fur. I have to. It's the only way to bring down this travesty of a government. But will I be able to live with myself...?
He had a lot of thinking to do.

Yay! Alright, just give me a bit to go over the RP one more time. It gets rather difficult to follow what amounts to three different stories from three or four different perspectives each in one thread. (Maybe make separate threads for separate squads next time?)
-
I get a different result almost every time, but the sigged one is the one I'm the most satisfied with.
-
I just noticed the date before my first post in this thread. x.x
-
Sounds awesome.
-
I meant in this universe, specifically. E.g., being recruited, meeting one another at the base, etc.
-
Is there any RP that the people waiting to join can do in the meantime?
-
I know. I'm trying to balance this character mentally. One strength-weakness pair comes straight from myself; intelligence, but thought-annihilating rage. I was thinking skill with a katana (I KNOW) balanced with him being fairly uncoordinated and physically weak otherwise. At first glance, I know that looks like a contradiction, but it's entirely possible to be dextrous yet uncoordinated.I doubt there are restrictions, just make your character believable (as in you can see that person in real life). After all, we don't really need a Mary Sue to ruin the fun.
EDIT: Screw katanas, I've got a better idea.
-
Alright then. I'll get started sometime in the next couple days. In the meantime, join the RPs I joined, and please stop writing like this.. its kind of annoying to read run on sentences with no capitalization or punctuation anywhere and randomwords not spaced out and emoticons >.>
Not trying to be a dick, but that's a pet peeve of mine.

Sarcus crested a hill overlooking the Academy and stopped for a moment to enjoy the view. Instead of following the fairly ponderous tour of the facilities, he had taken the first opportunity to explore the wilderness around the Academy. After all, it paid to get to know what Pokemon were found in the area, and being cooped up in a boat all the way from Slateport had left him aching both literally and figuratively for an opportunity to stretch his legs in solitude. Battles were discouraged aboard ships; blasts of fire and other such things tended to reduce the lifespans of both the vessel and those aboard it. As a precaution, they hadn't allowed Trainers to let their Pokemon out, and since no trainees at the Academy could use pokeballs, he had been stuck in a cabin with three other people and his two pokemon, the reserved Absolution and the rather shy and ironically named Gallant. He sighed in contentment, before starting forward once again. He moved onto the road, as the terrain around the Academy was rather rough from the training that went on around it. The gravel crunched under his feet, in comparison to the light steps of both of his partners. As he approached the Academy gate, the guard called out to him in a gravelly voice. "Who are you?" he asked.
"Oh, I'm Sarcus. I'm a new student here." He fumbled around in his pockets, searching for his Trainer Card.
"Why didn't you come in an hour ago with the rest of the new students?"
"Has it been that long? D***. Oh, here's my card. See? I'm supposed to be here."
"Go on in," the guard said. "Your teachers probably won't be happy with you, though."
(Teachers or something can pick up here.)

By the way, are there any restrictions on the combat abilities of your character? I'm not planning on being some kung-fu master that could beat Groundon in an arm-wrestling match, but I would think that a trainer would be able to defend himself in this kind of world.
-
Is there a way that I could read that first chapter? I'd like to get a feel for the story so far, and possibly touch it up a bit. More information about the backstory (What is your current goal? Do you have existing conflict? Why did you give up being the Champion) would be welcome, too.
-
I was just quoting his character vs. mine.

I need practice writing, so why not?

Username: KingMurdoc
Character name & gender: Sarcus (Male)
Partner pokemon(pokemon, level, gender, nickname): Absolution (Absol, male), level 10; Gallant (Ralts, male), level 10
Affiliation: Village
Rank: Trainee
Personality: A bit withdrawn and asocial at first. He's good at being serious, but dislikes doing so all of the time. He's quick to anger, and (usually) calms down fairly quickly. If he doesn't, he holds grudges. Highly intelligent and very proud, a sure way to get on his nerves quickly is to insult his intelligence. Once he allows himself to get to know people, he's very easygoing, though sometimes he's offensive without realizing it. If he's got something to say, he usually has many more things to say after that. He relates better to Pokemon than other people.
Description: A bit taller than average (5'11"), with long blonde hair that tends to get slightly unkempt. He never ties it back, preferring to let it flow over his shoulders and down his back. Usually wears brown, black, or khaki cargo pants with a white T-shirt, an unbuttoned shirt, and a jacket or coat depending on the weather. Slate gray eyes.By the way, what's with the restriction on same-sex relationships? It doesn't really matter to me, but seems a bit unneeded.
Also, I swear to Arceus that I'm not copying that Absol-utely guy.

-Birthday; December 3rd.
-Things to Know; Sarcus is pretty quiet and reserved at first. He doesn't usually have a lot to say, but when he does, he goes on at length, talking rapidly. He tries very hard to stay calm and collected but has a very hot temper. Sarcus is also very proud and easily offended, though less so around friends. He is very intelligent but somewhat lacking in people skills and common sense. Sarcus relates very well to Pokemon, however. He's been traveling alone with his Absolution since his family was taken away on suspicion of opposing the Church of Dawn; the reason the Absol appeared to him.

I'm interested. Let me think a bit about my team and character. I'll likely use a modified version of Sarcus.
By the way, I would make this the OOC thread and make an IC thread; it's easier to follow RP that isn't broken up with 3 OOC posts in between every IC one.Character Profiles
Alina
Username: grasssnake485 (NPC)
Alina, female
Partner pokemon:
Serperior (93, F) Giwira (retired, barely used)
Serperior (73, F) MapleLucario (61, M) Seishin
Flygon (60, M) Ryuumaru
Arceus (barely used)
Rank: Second in CommandPersonality: Alina is fiercely loyal to her friends and older sister, and is willing to protect the entire village with her life if necessary. She might seem unsociable and an outcast at first glance, but inside she is a very caring person. Though she is an offensive monster, she is fairly weak when it comes to defense, often relying on Kasumi to cover her back.
Description:
Height: 162 cm
Age: 15
Hobbies: hanging out in high places, training…
Likes: sweet food, clothes that give her a large range of movement
Dislikes: seeing her team get hurt, Team Shadow
Crush: Guys. Appeal to her. She and her sister are the strongest in the village.
Alina used to have a crush on Storm, the Team Shadow leader, but he left the village so he could have power, and that wish came true when the team elected him as the team leader.
Other: Alina is the younger sister of Emerald, they're both orphans, she's the new leader of the serpent sisters team consisting of Alina with Serperior, Sakura with Arbok, Emerald(formerly) with Rayquaza, and Kasumi with Milotic.Alina is surprisingly highly skilled in swordsmanship, and can easily dual wield Leaf Blade and her own sword in both serperior and human form.

Partner pokemon:
Rayquaza (67) Skye
Roserade (21,M)
Volclarona(49,F)
Rank: Leader
Personality: Emerald is cold and calculating, which makes her a powerful leader, especially in battle. She isnt hesitant to make sacrifices, and is more than willing to punish people if they break rules. She would rather continue on if a teammate gets too badly hurt and abandon them than worry about her teammate and ditch the mission.
Description:
Height: 169 cm
Age: 18
Hobbies: Drawing, but she doesnt have any time to since she's leader.
Likes: Talking with Alina, the only person she trusts now.
Dislikes: immaturity in general, people who dont pay attention to rules(Emerald reserves the right to take a legendary pokemon away from you if you dont follow rules)… the list goes on.
Crush: Emerald doesnt give a cr@p about love.Other: Emerald is one of the few remaining pokepeople from the war. She used a spell that would grant anybody with pokepoeple blood immortality as long as they stay within the borders of the city. Though she seems strong, inside, she is almost an emotional wreck, revealing those thoughts only to Alina.

Regigigas
Spells: Illusions (Illusion), Concussion Blast (Offensive), Flame Blast (Offensive), Frenzy (Illusion), Berserker's Rage (Offensive)
Personality: Warm, loyal, and accessible, but a bit of a trickster.
Height: 5'10"
Age: Halted at 18
Likes: Battling, Nature, Normal-types, climbing trees
Dislikes: Team Shadow
Crush: Alina
Other: Emerald is the only person aside from Sonny who knows how long he's been in the Village of Clouds. He uses exclusively Normal-types, but loves all Pokemon regardless of type.
Sonny is skilled in the use of Offensive Magic and is descended from a line of Berserkers, Poke-People who employ physical boosting magic through the Offensive branch instead of the Psychic branch. This can occasionally cause them to lose control in battle, although the presence of friends helps curb this effect.
Sonny's weapon of choice is a hand-and-a-half sword called "Necessity." It is a simple arming blade forged in a manner similar to that used for katana. He prefers to use his fists, but will draw his sword if the need arises. Emerald and Alina are the only two in the village who have seen him wield his blade. Sonny often employs his offensive magic and his Pokemon's abilities to add additional strength to the blade.
Skills: I have no idea what these are for.

appearance: 5'4", dark hair, bright green eyes. He has fairly thick hair that is just under shoulder length. He has a strong build. He usually wears fairly plain clothes.Battle theme

Should I go ahead and post my character in the RP character thread? Or should I wait for approval from the host?

I'd need a bit to catch up on the story (a summary would be welcome), but can I still join this? I'd be Sarcus with my Absol called Absolution. (Don't hate me for it.)

Absol. I love the design, and the amazing Attack is icing. Plus, dark types are amazing, and I like everything about Absol.
