I don't know why you are roleplaying, but I know why I am: Because I just like being in-character more.
Oh, and I'm also kind of imagining/dreaming/following along adventures in the PMD-verse with a slightly different, more personal team. For now I'm mostly following the plot similarly as it is in-game, just have to excise all the "Human that was turned into a Pokemon" things which I found wasn't that hard so far. While in-game I'm in Mt. Blaze, in-dream currently in Lapis Cave, but circumstances - fugitives running from rescue teams that are set on destroying us - are the same.
What? Don't look at me like that. I like doing this, personalization and having the main characters actually, you know, all talk.
Okay, rambling done. Lugruf, are you around?
