  1. "Ah yes I probably should have warned you he's a bit of an... eccentric genius." Terrin whispered to Hoshiko, before approaching the rambling man. "Senator! Of all the times I've seen you trash your manor, this is the first time you've done it with fire." The mage said loudly enough for the senator to hear over his own muttering.
  2. "Put simply? I didn't know how bad he would turn out. He was a troubled kid, acting out against those around him, but then, so was I. I thought he just needed what I didn't really have growing up - a friend. We all realised, in due time, that he was committed to a dark path that I couldn't stop." Terrin explained, before smiling at Hoshiko. "We're almost at the Senator's house, now."
  3. "He was... different. Didn't care about anyone or anything. Not even himself, really. Just a hunger, a dark hunger for knowledge. And a twisted enjoyment and excitement surrounding death. He was the youngest of all 23 of us. As the second youngest, I wanted to be there for him, be a friend. I understood what it was like to be shunned." Terrin just frowned a bit. "He went down a very dark path, though. Nothing satisfied his hunger for knowledge. But he was brilliant, truly brilliant. One day we found a dead wyvern. He weaved his dark magicks together and brought it back from the dead. Then stole a Silver Axe from his father- A woodsman who had recieved the axe as a gift our mother -and flew away. I loathe to think where he is now. Best case scenario is he works with bandits, and worst case is something far darker..." He sighed, before looking down at the ground, realising he'd really dampened the mood even more.
  4. "Ah right, that..." Terrin mused, before furrowing his brow a bit. "I didn't used to be very nice." The mage responded, simply. "I have a very large family, most of whom are a lot older than me and I couldn't relate with. There is one particular sister- one of my oldest -who I really always fought with. I always had... disagreements with some of the officials involved in the church, and that same sister ended up becoming one such official and rising through the ranks. Lots of people don't take kindly to those who question priests and templars, especially some bratty rich kid with an attitude problem. And then there's the fact I always tried to stand up for my little brother..." Terrin just sighed as he recounted things, before shrugging. "I forge my own path, and it's a different path to what many would perhaps like." He finished, smiling a bit at the archer.
  5. "Sounds like a plan, between us we might just not offend an entire nation." The mage said with confidence, before heading out, no doubt with the archer in tow, and walking along a winding street. "It's true I know how to handle myself day to day, and indeed even in important situations but... It's been a while. And I was hardly that well liked when I did live here, so I think a refersher is best, don't you? We don't get a second chance at this, after all." He mused to Hoshiko.
  6. "Hoshiko, if we're going to be taking on this job, it is naturally important that we ensure we know everything about the proper way to conduct ourselves in there. I have an old friend- A senator here -that I wanted to see anyway, and he'll no doubt be able to tell us most everything we'll need to know. I still remember how to get to his residence, I think it'd be a good idea for you to come along." Terrin smiled at his... eccentric companion. He also looked over at Saffron and Feri. "If either of you think it would be useful or interesting to also hear what a senator would have to say to us about this, you are of course welcome to come along." He invited.
  7. There are no 'extra additions', as it were, all content is done, as said of being at 100%. We're just going through testing to polish things up. After all, would you rather a buggy mess now, or a polished product in some time? I think most people would rather the latter, and it's definitely what we'd rather put out.
  8. The development of the episode is done, but there are many stages of testing. Supervised and internal are both done now, and we are currently on alpha. After alpha there is beta testing, and after that is when the community release will be. And Ame has been updating the obtainable pokemon list on the site with a few mons daily, just so we can slowly but surely all see what stuff was added and so on.
  9. "Great, when you put it like that every single one of my siblings, my mother, and all of her husbands are gonna be there." Terrin sighed with a shake of his head, although just that possibility was enough to make him very glad indeed that he had an excuse to not attend. "Ecquis, if you meet anyone that introduces themself as 'Son of Lady Aisha', or 'Daughter of Lady Aisha', or 'Husband of Lady Aisha' or... basically anyone that has 'Lady Aisha' in their name, could you let them know I'm in town, but urgent business prevented me from attending, and you send my regrets. I wouldn't want them to think I'm snubbing them." He remarked to the wyvern rider, despite the fact that he would totally be snubbing them if he had any choice in the matter.
  10. "If nobody has any objections I'm inclined to accept the commander's invitation to accompany Saffron. I'll lend the extent of my knowledge of how politics works here." Terrin says with a gracious nod, before glancing between Serene, Rosalyva, Mayanna, Hoshiko and Cherry to decide which one of them would be the least politically disastrous. "Hmm... Anna, do you know if any relations of mine will be at the party?" He asked her, thinking. He knew he wouldn't be able to attend the party- and even if he was able to, the prospect of speaking to any of his family would be enough to put him off -but it would be rude to not offer his apologies if he knew anyone that would be there.
  11. "Y'know..." Terrin murmured as he glanced at the bolting tome that had been crushed and torn beneath Louise's boot. "If every thunder mage threw a tantrum and destroyed their tome every time they missed the broadside of a barn, we wouldn't have any thunder mages left. You Dragaons have no discipline, I could've used that." He sighed with a shrug, lamenting the lost oppurtunity of something as cool as a bolting tome. Move to B8 and Thunderpunch Louise's face
  12. I've always been one that, if I enjoy a game, I will play it to absolute death and do everything I can and replay and I'll eventually burn out and lose interest but that's usually well into postgame. I always enjoy doing such extra things, often just as a way to see the limit as you take the game's system's to their extremes and it's the best chance to play about with really high level customisation and explore things to their fullest potentials so Yeah, I like postgame stuff a lot in most games.
  13. Okay so the only things the online system legality cares about are: 1) Is the pokemon obtainable in the current release of the game? 2) Is it legally able to learn all the moves in the current release of the game? And that is all. So anything that was put in via the 'old' trading method should be fine provided it is tradeable and hasn't been given unreleased TM moves or somesuch (So a Volcarona sounds totally fine!). And TM breeding stuff will be usable as soon as the relevant TM is available and thus the mon can learn it normally by TM. Indeed once all pokemon and TMs are available in the eventual final release, all the system will really check for is if the mon has a move it's impossible for it to get.

  15. "One broken down wall, coming up!" Terrin announces as he walks over to Klaren's side, placing his hand on the wall (to be absolutely certain he hit his mark), and allowing the static to shoot straight from his hand. Move to D6 and static the wall.
  16. "Y'know that was a good pose. If I didn't know any better, I would've thought you were a genuine mage." Terrin laughed a bit at Hoshiko, before just smiling a little as he looked between the two wyvern riders and the nomad nearby. "Watch my back, will you? Don't let the guy on the horse come after me." He asked the archer, before running off to continue the offensive. Move to G2, Static Wyvern Rider 2
  17. Known as: Marcello Age: 20 years old Gender: Male Birthday: October 1st, 1996 Location: England Height: 5'7" Hair Color: Light Brown Eye Color: Hazel Lives with: Recently moved out of a flat with a friend to live back with my parents. Pets: Two cats Relationship status: Single Favourite Food: Anything with rice will keep me happy, and I am also a big fan of Thai and Chinese cuisines. Favourite Drink: Water Favourite Color: Sky Blue, like the colour of the objectively best pokemon, Articuno Favourite kind of Music: How fast do I get lynched if I say Nightcore? Honestly I'm pretty big on most music, I just listen to whatever until I get bored of it and find a new whatever to listen to Favourite Band: Hard to say, I don't really follow who most of what I'm listening to is made by oops Favourite Album: See above, the only whole album that's stood out to me recently is Ed Sheeran's new one, that's all some really good shit Favourite Song: Marina and the Diamonds - Savages Favourite Game: The entire Atelier series, particularly recent, is something I adore, I'd say Atelier Meruru (plus) probably holds the top spot for me Favourite Genre of Game: SRPG Favourite Hobbies: Videogames, Mathematics, Coding, Cooking Favourite Movies: It has honestly been a very long time since I have seen a movie Favourite Shows: I don't watch much TV but one thing that jumps out at me as having really enjoyed was Suits, that's a great show. But I'm one season behind atm so please no spoils thank Community questions: So, who are you?: Hey, I'm Marcello and I am currently 2 years into a 4 years Mathematics degree at university! Maths has always been something I've loved so maybe when I'm done I'll do a phd, time will tell. I've lived in London my whole life, pretty standard stuff. As of just under 2 years ago I've been a member of the Development team for pokemon reborn, and as of just under 1 year ago I've been the only scripter on the team, and head of the development team as a whole (even if that is just in name only, really). I really enjoy working on the game, and it's always fun to see people enjoying it. I joined Reborn around 3 years ago and sometimes I still find it hard to believe that I have gone from some rando to being the only scripter on the dev team for the game. Anything you're responsible for? As I've said before, I'm the scripter for pokemon Reborn. I joined a bit through the development of E16 so while nothing prior to that was me, a lot of the fun cool stuff that came with the latest release I'm at least partly responsible for, including a large number of bugfixes, online functionality (particularly Wonder Trade which I programmed from scratch and am still super proud of because that is my baby tbh) the mechanics behind a certain conveyor puzzle, and some other things, and one of the big things I'm working on for the next release is improved AI! I'm also the one that ruined the money curve as of E16 so the reason y'all are so rich ingame is because I messed up oops If you had to choose one of your posts as your way to introduce yourself, which would it be? Did I mention that I like Alolan Exeggutor a lot?? What can I talk to you about? Just about anything you'd like, I like to think I'm pretty approachable and enjoy talking about things with people. Although in particular if you wanna talk about maths or something similar I could go on for hours so please talk to me about maths please I love it. Still, I'm open to chat about anything, I'll take any excuse to procrastinate from working on reborn Closing statements? Nothing much else to say beyond this topic is a great idea, hopefully it helps newer additions to this community more open to interacting with those of us that have been around longer.
  18. "A... ghost? In that house?" Terrin glanced back at the decrepit house he had just been in after Klaren's exclamations as he walked out of it, before looking beside him to the sceptical Rosa. "Well, I must admit, I didn't see anything in that house but..." He paused, looking back to the pleading Klaren, before smiling. "I've seen a dead wyvern eat a guy before, it wasn't that long ago we were fighting dead people, and I make thunder zap people by communing with spirits. Ghosts are probably real, Rosalvya." He just shrugged. It was at this point that the thunder mage saw Hoshiko readying to fire an arrow at the nearby fighter and nodded to himself, feeling newly rejuvenated as if he hadn't recently been shot many times- Indeed the arrow scars were all but gone at this point. "Heroic Combo!" He announced as he ran beside the archer to join her attack. Move to I5 and Static the Fighter
  19. Hello yes I am afraid it might be a little while before server is up again it needs a restart but we can't do that until a bit later, sorry for any inconvenience!
  20. A friend just made me watch the first few episodes of Boku no Hero Academia. I have to say I am thoroughly hooked.

      IT'S GREAT

       

      I mean, yes, it uses shounen cliches a lot, but it uses them well. And it has some really good characters as well.

      I hated a bunch of the main characters in the first season, but season 2 was a lot more fun.

      Hycrox

      actually I just disliked the first 5 episodes, then everything else was good/great

  21. You would want to save it as, for example "ZMove:BREAKNECKBLITZ" I thought I had added this to the readme but it appears I have not, so I'll get to updating that with a little note about this
  22. "Klaren just ran out of that dilapidated house, and it didn't seem like his normal, cheerful running, either... I suppose it can't hurt to give it a look over while I catch my breath." The mage mumbled to himself as he pulled an arrow out of his chest, dropping it to the floor as he glanced at a wound on his arm that appeared to have been healing for months with only a small scar, as opposed to the truth of the matter that he got it a mere few minutes ago. He just shrugged as he wandered over to the ruins of the house, peering inside as his arrow wound was already starting to stop bleeding while he took a few deep breaths. Move to K5, Equip Thunder, and Hold
  23. Politics happened. Not the best result, not the worst result, I'll take it, though.

      I'd say anything that keeps the seats about even so that they have to show up if they want to pass a bill is good. A minority government means that they'll actually have to work with people and compromise.

      I'm pretty freakin scared that Conservatives have decided to team up with possibly the one party that is as bad, if not worse, of a party as UKIP.

  24. We don't set release dates, but we're working on things. If you wanna keep up with development, we have a devblog you can keep up with: http://www.rebornevo.com/index.php?/pr/development/
