Notus

Welcome everyone. Before we begin you must steel youselves, for the journey ahead will be tough. You're about to enter a place of darkness and despair, were your most dreaded nightmares can turn real... But your deepest wishes too. Do you have the courage to proceed? Good. Than let's go through the gates... and under the Hill. Researchers discovered a hollow hill that ended up being an ancient complex. As a team of explorers vanishes inside it, the hill turns into an abnormal area where supernatural ocurrences happen, such as some objects vanishing in thin air and others apearing out of nowhere.Other research teams were sent on, but most members came back in shock, some even in a vegetative state. One day, the leader of the original team comes back and says that whoever reaches the final chamber of the complex will have his dreams fulfilled... He never spoke another word. Much time passed. The area around the hill was locked down by the military and, as time passed by, forgotten. Ocasionally someone tries to get in, only to return in a completely wrecked state of mind. Besides that, people keep sneaking in and vanishing through the gates of the hill complex, trying to fulfill their dreams... You are someone with a dream. You want desperately to turn it in reality. And you'll go over everything and everyone who stands in your way. Let the game begin. Rules -Respect the other players Everybody here is just looking for fun. Bullying other people is NOT funny. Anyone disrepecting this rule will be excluded from the RP with no chance of coming back. -Respect the Mods Be it me or whoever else is acting as mod, keep in mind that we're using our time to make something entertaining for you. -No Excessive Violence, Sexual Content and Swearing Yes, this RP will have a lot of fighting and some dark content, but let's try to keep it civilized. Breaking this rule will also cause expulsion from the RP. -No Bunnying If you're new to RPs, bunnying is controlling someone else's character, and it's not nice in a bit. If you have to interact with another PC, post your actions and wait for the other player's reaction. -Once inside the hill, people cannot die. If you pass by a killing experience you'll stay dead for a while and than recover on the same place you were killed (if anyone watched Angel Beats, it's just like that) -Your objective is to get to the bottom floor of the complex. Each floor is a maze and the stairs to access the next floor are hidden somewhere, protected by a guardian -You'll begin the story separated, player encounters can happen at your will, as well as traps and monsters (I'll stil throw some of those at you however). Guardian encounters will be determined by mod. -You may choose to kill other players in order to slow them down and get to the bottom first, after all no one nows if the hill's magic work more than once. On the other hand you can still choose to team up with them or just follow your way. -Once inside the hill, your characters will gain a supernatural ability of your choice to be used through the story. It has to relate to the character in some way, and it will have an utilization cost. Try to keep them simple and not overpowered though, so the story can go on better. -If you engage another player try to be reasonable at the fight. No one likes to lose, but sometimes one has to. Don't worry though, no one is gonna be left behind at the end.

The cost is a damaging side effect of your Ability, so people with too amazing powers will have a dreadful cost to pay when using it.

Marcus found himself staring at his own dead body. It was quite a weird feeling, but in the end he decided it didn't look like him at all. It seemed more like a broken doll, with one arm missing and a hole in the chest. He turned away. Marcus walked toward Odin and Helzelbeth. He was startled when a wolf jumped over the half-elf, but quickly realized it was her own wolf. He put a hand on the dwarf's shoulder. "Yes Odin, I'll fight my best to give all of this a meaning. It would be too cruel if Magi was gone for nothing, and I refuse to believe that fate is this cruel. As the Godess of Light said, now we're linked until our task is done. Count on me."

Temp, your first one looks a lot like my Gallhawk (some 7 posts above)... I'm also terrible with names, but I'll try to think of something nice .

Woah, things are going better than I expected! Well, I think this is enough interest to start working on the OOC thread, so I probably will have it ready tomorrow. @ Tamer: Thanks for the offer mate! I'll need a back-up mod sometimes, and it's always good to have some help!

Why does K_H never claim the Hill? As I'm already in the ocean... *Gets a windsurf board* *Sails back to the hill [include epic jumps here]* Hill's mine, sailor stile.

About Trick Room, I think Ame said it'll be added to the game later. Don't know about Metronome, but I guess it'll be solved once the broken moves are fixed.

*guided missiles* *People goes BOOM* Me, King.

100 posts since the thread started (from 200 to 300). Also congrats Renzo!

Nah, I've only learned that little time ago, thanks to Reborn. And, as Tacps&Flowers said, it's not so important in the game.

Arcanine is very nice even later in the game, mostly because of Extreme Speed. And it gets Crunch, which will help you against Radomus, and two good abilities in Justified and Flash Fire. I like mine a lot .

MK, it's about Effort Values, the famous EV's. They're points you earn when battling that raise one of you pokémons stats. You can only have 510 of these spread around all stats, so it's important to use these berries in order to arrange them in the best way possible. Example: A Gengar is a special atacker, and it's Attack stat is naturally terrible. As such, having Attack EV's in it is a waste as you won't be using them. So you use these berries to reset your Attack EV's so you can put them in another stat. After reading this topic I think I'll add a section with the location of EV training items (which are just the berries as of now) on the EV Training Guide. Edit: Done!

Glad you liked it Rose! Seems like K_H is interested too. I'll wait a little more to give more people time to find this, and if everything goes OK I'll post the OOC thread in a day or two.

Marcus listened to the Godess dumbfounded. His felt relief for not being that after all for he wouldn't be able to rest in peace being defeated on his very first adventure, knowing his family would despise him even more. He heard the desperate cry of the Ranger, Helzelbeth, and the answer of the Godess of Light. He felt sad about Magni. it just didn't seem right that the valiant dwarf paladin coudn't be here with them. As it seemed like time to explaining things, he adressed his own question to Lumabella. "Why did you bring us here? I mean, sorry if I seem rude, but why would a Godess care about a bunch of ramdom people on a fishing village? And also, who -or what- was that thing we faced there?"

Woah, seems like good stuff .

More or less, since this time we'll have a story, chronological order and some limits on what players can do. Example, you won't see stuff like *bombs [person] and takes the hill*. Also the hill is more a labirint where you need to get to it's end. Edit: I'll put some basic rules on the first post to make things more clear. Edit, the return: Done.

Yep, more or less like that, though you don't need to be a explorer. You may just have heard the rumours about dreams made true and sneaked in to give it a shot. And yes there will be respawning. Basically people cannot die once in there, so even if you're cut into bits (and it can happen) you'll stay "dead" for a while and recover in the exact same place you were when you got "killed". If you've watched the anime Angel Beats, it's just like that.

*Enters Rose's castle flying and lands in front of her* "Hey, take a look at this: http://www.pokemonreborn.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=8076" *Flies of to K_H, Zephyr, Tamer, Absol and whoever else get's in the game, tellling them the same thing* *Vanishes* . . . . . *Stabs Rose from behind while she's reading* What, you thought I would just go away? King of the Hill!

Hello everyone! So, I finally gathered enough courage to try and start my first RP here. Hope you like it! This is an idea I'm got more or less one month ago, and I think it could be interesting. It's basically an RP based on the game King of the Hill (which you can easily find on the Onix Arcade) where, for the most part, the players will find themselves competing against each other to reach their goals. Of course I don't plan to force it on anyone, the players will have freedom to team up or even don't engage others at all, and in the end there won't be any winners nor losers. Now for a little intro to the plot. Researchers discovered a hollow hill that ended up being an ancient complex. As an team of explorers vanishes inside it, the hill turns into an abnormal area where supernatural ocurrences happen, such as some objects vanishing in thin air and others apearing out of nowhere.Other research teams were sent on, but most members came back in shock, some even in a vegetative state. One day, the leader of the original team comes back and says that whoever reaches the final chamber of the complex will have his dreams fulfilled... He never spoke another word. Much time passed. The area around the hill was locked down by the military and, as time passed by, forgotten. Ocasionally an someone tries to get in, only to return in a completely wrecked state of mind. Besides that, people keep sneaking in and vanishing through the gates of the hill complex, trying to fulfill their dreams... You are someone with a dream. You want desperately to turn it in reality. And you'll go over everything and everyone who stands in your way. Let the game begin. That's the basic idea. Here go some rules: -Once inside the hill, people cannot die. If you pass by a killing experience you'll stay dead for a while and than recover on the same place you were killed (if anyone watched Angel Beats, it's just like that) -Your objective is to get to the bottom floor of the complex.Each floor is a maze and the stairs to access the next floor are hidden somewhere, protected by a guardian -You'll begin the story separated, player encounters can happen at your will, as well as traps and monsters (I'll stil throw some of those at you however). Guardian encounters will be determined by mod. -You may choose to kill other players in order to slow them down and get to the bottom first, after all no one nows if the hill's magic work more than once. On the other hand you can still choose to team up with them or just follow your way. -Once inside the hill, your characters will gain a supernatural ability of your choice to be used through the story. It has to relate to the character in some way, and it will have an utilization cost. Try to keep them simple and not overpowered though, so the story can go on better. -If you engage another player try to be reasonable at the fight. No one likes to loose, but sometimes one has to. Don't worry though, no one is gonna be left behind at the end. If you have any interest in role-playing this story - or an better idea for it's name, since I'm terrible on naming things - please post below!

Ledian. (I decided I'm just gonna give you flying pokés ) Oh, and just to clear it, next gym you're talking about is Shelly or Corey?

^Thanks Zephyr!

@ Murdoc, Flux and GrassSnake: Hey, sorry for putting pressure but we need you guys to post a bit.

First time I hear about allignements (yes, I'm as noob as that). Time to Google a bit I think.

There's no place in the game with Sp.Def EVs only as of now. I took a quick look at the guide and I'd suggest Citae Arc-D'astrae, ground floor. Pokémon appear more often than in Headbutt and 42% of the time you'll get Sp.Def EVs. Just avoid the Unowns and Elgyems.

Welcome to the mad house forums Devon! As all the important stuff ha's already been said, I'd just like to add that, if you're a writer, you may find the RP section quite interesting. See you around!
