Unfortunately, I don't know what has happened to her. I hope she's okay and something didn't happen sending her sent to the hospital, but unfortunately we cannot just sit and wait around and hope she responds without a backup plan.

For the time being though, I'll basically be taking the role of lead story writer in her place not because I totally am doing that already. If she returns, I'll step down and she can do whatever it was she was planning to do. Since most of you are giving great feedback, I'll be happy to say I'm more than capable of drafting and finalizing a plot without outside help should she not return.

I agree that it's great and smart to have a backup/contingency should something happen and you being lead writer is a great plan. If you're lead, I hope to be assistant idea person and discussing everything person. ;D I'm very happy that people are giving great feedback to you because I'm sure it makes your new role easier to complete. :D

I hope Lore's ok........Anyway you were pretty much the lead story writer as is, might as well make it official.

I hope she's good too and that nothing bad happened and that it's just busyness keeping her but yes let's just make it official about Commander being lead writer with me as appointed assistant due to being so active on the doc. ;D Just kidding but seriously, I would love to be assistant idea and discussion person.

I'm the doc editor, idea giver and discussion master, I also let new people to the doc know what to do and how everyone can help

and if you were in the game:

Please Please provide the following information copy and paste this format and fill it in please. If you don't me and Commander will fill this for you so up to you :D:

Full Name (First and Last if you want them to have it): Example: Phoenix Mist is mine.

Detailed Personality of your Gym Leader:

Background: If you know it for sure

QUOTES (I'm doing 5 different quotes for this):

Intro to Leader Battle:

Player losing to Leader:

Last Pokémon:

Leader loses:

After Battle: what you say after battle, gym badge and tm explanation blah blah (I can put in level cap explanations)

These parts of the bios are missing for a lot of you so if you could please post the above format and fill it in, again would be highly appreciated. :D

This game is going to be so awesome when the doc team is done with it so I hope you all can't wait for it.

I think I got all this stuff down from the first questionnaire Commander created, should I just put everything together in one post? I could if it will make things easier.

Yes please put everything according to the format I put above, it makes it so much easier for me because I will just be copying and pasting from this thread straight to the doc. I need Drymus, Nepeta, Joost, PBX5, Micky, Timbla, especially to do this because you are missing a lot of information especially the quotes.

BUT Milotic all I need from you is the player losing and when Ezel loses quote. You did a really good job on your application so much appreciated and thanks. :D

In the doc, I put "... NO MY KINGDOM!" as the losing quote based on your last pokemon quote of THE GREAT KINGDOM of EZEL SHALL NOT FALL! but please let me know what you want for it. :D

Personality doesn't necessarily mean the answers to the 10 interview questions by the way. It can just be a summary but as an example Joost put: friendly and something else I don't remember is not a detailed enough personality. Should be at least 3 lines worth if possible. Thanks.

Have a great day/night. :D

I just finished mines :D (it was just some quotes :P ) but should I try to add more to his personality but the truth is I don't think there is much I can say

I edited in Jacob's idea he had in my gym leader post and made it in its own backstory I'm leaving the old one just in case

Actually PBX5 and any others planning to edit their application post, would you mind posting in a new post just the format I did with the answers. That way it's easy for me to copy and paste into the document accordingly. If you do this, I would greatly appreciate it. :D

PBX5 all I need from you is the quotes and if you want to put more personality and background you can but you do have some in the document already at least so that's good. :D

Thanks for being a part of Revolution and have a great day.

....but I already put it in my gym post........(thank god for copy and paste... :D)

alright so here you go

Opening- .....Let's see how strong you are.....
Last Pokemon - ... (gonna be honest,I don't thing he'll say anything)
Player losing to Gym - ......its okay to lose sometimes.....you'll just get stronger in the end....come back when your ready...
Lost-......*smiles*....you fought well.....
After Battle- He'll say the generic tm explanation and wouldn't say anything when giving you the badge but before you'll leave, he'll just say this "...I expect a rematch soon......."
I just added all of them just to make it easier :P
and here's the new backstory Jacob idea started :P

P.S. For Erebus the Dark Leader (yeah remember him), instead of him learning from the previous Dark leader, why not have the Dark/Ghost elite four member? The Elite Four are themed as one for each section (for example, one based on Grass, Bug and Poison for the forest). why not have the Dark/Ghost Elite Four (Let's call him Axxel ;)) used to be the Dark leader before being promoted. Just an idea.With this idea his backstory would change a little. It could be like this. After Erebus was taken in by Axxel,he started training him as a Dark Type Trainer, Erebus with his new purpose/ new dream which was to take over the gym and protect the city that took him in,Erebus for what seem liked a lifetime finally felt happy but as quickly as he got it, it was just taken away...Axxel was promoted to a Elite Four member at first Erebus was happy for him but when Axxel joined the Elite Four he rarely ever saw him and when he did he realize the man the raised him had changed...after this Erebus never tried to visit Axxel,he took over the gym,it was his dream after all.The once happy boy who finally had a home with which he could share with his dear friend Umbreon was broken,Erebus basically lost his connection with the town's folks leading them to distrust him, even to place him on the enemy's side....though few still see that once happy boy who was always ready to help someone in need.....(I hope you guys like this idea :D )

So for those of you not on the google docs, shit has been going down there. Like literally, it goes in all sorts of directions. However, I kind of wanted to bring a little annoucement. We're kind of in need of spriters due to a certain idea being passed.

Here's an example that I've been working on yesterday. It's half finished, but I know you all love hot chics so...

Holy Torchic that looks awesome!

And that thing that was posted today:

Full Name: Incendia Roh

Detailed Personality of your Gym Leader:

Incendia's main motivation in life is to seek out entertainment, and can become unpredictable at times. She loves observing conflict, and will stir the pot if she can stay out of trouble, but tries to avoid getting caught up in it if she can help it. As such, she observes the battles occurring in game, and may sabotage either side, but her alignment is neutral at the start of the game. You guys can shift her alignment to your liking as the game goes on, if you can find a place for her outside of her gym. She doesn't seem to take anything seriously, and will often skip the time she is scheduled to be in her gym to avoid battling weak trainers. She would never kill anyone, but she would cause immense property damage if she thought she would get a kick out of it, or if she was mad at the owner. She keeps a collection of cannons in her gym. The town she lives in has covered the wall outside the door of her gym with mattresses so that those she finds boring(someone who gets curbstomped by her team) or annoying (Fern-type character).

Background: I'm bad at these, so it would probably be better if someone else did it...

QUOTES (I'm perfectly fine with these being edited if you guys feel things need to be changed):

Intro to Leader Battle:

So... You're here to snag my badge? How many ya got so far? Just six?!? WHY DO ONLY WEAK PEOPLE COME HERE?!?!? THIS IS WHY I ALWAYS SKIP OUT! NO ONE WHO COMES QUALIFIES FOR A BATTLE AGAINST MY ACTUAL TEAM, DAMMIT!!! Ahem. Sorry 'bout that. It's just that low-key battles with people like you are always boring. So yeah. Come back with more badges, 'kay? No? Ugh. FIIIIINE. Let's get this over with.

Player losing to Leader:

Sheesh. What a disappointment. Come back when you've got a team that can actually entertain me.

Last Pokémon:

Ha! You're more interesting than I thought you'd be!

Leader loses:

Not too shabby... For someone with only six badges, of course. You'll be fun to play with once you get a bit more experience, but for now, just take this badge and buzz off before I get bored.

After Battle:

Well, that was actually somewhat enjoyable. Here, catch. It's the Blitz Badge. And take this TM, too. Now run along. Don't show up again until you have the firepower to face me in a real battle.

-Speaking to her in the gym afterwards:

What do you want? You have the badge, go away. Come back after you finish the league. Then we can have some fun.

My App (Just in-case)

Appearance: I wouldnt mind him looking similar to the protaganist from Pokemon Conquest or Juan from the original pokemon games, just to make things easier, but I wanna go White Hair and maybe add a crown lol. Also a black/white Coat would be cool.

Background Info: He is now the Lord of his land(Whatever you end up choosing) now that his father has passed. He controls a pretty huge task force that force his views on the people. While Ezel may seem evil, he is actually pretty considerate to his people, which is why there has been no rebellion.... yet.

Personality: Acts like a King, and is very arrogant. He won't interact with anyone whom doesn't prove themselves worthy and will not accept challenges from anyone with less than ? badges. He does love pokemon, but only his. He believes his pokemon were choosen, while the other pokemon are just pitiful. His pokemon have also acquired his personality.

His goal is to achieve the ultimate normal type (Arceus) through any means. When he was young he was told stories of his great great great Grandfather once wielding the power of a God named Arceus and that's how their family got into power (also explaining why Ezel specializes in the normal type). Its up to you if you want to actually include this though, maybe this would be a means to join the evil team or something.

Quotes:

Before challenging Ezel: How many badges do you have?

Before battle: You are one of the few people I allow to challenge me which means you are worthy, but let me remind you this is a one time thing, if you lose you may not challenge me again. My kingdom, people, and pokemon only function by my power. Now let me show it to you. (of course if you lose, you will respawn at the pokemon center and will be able to challenge him again lol)

Last Pokemon: The great Kingdom of Ezel SHALL NOT FALL!

Defeated: ..... This outcome was not expected. I applaud you (gives tm/badge). But I should tell you, I only use about 50% of my power when I accept gym battles, so do not even think for a second that you've bested me. Now begone I have great matters to attend to, and pray that we never meet again in the future.

The Questionnaire (Just in-case)

1. Is there anything your character likes to do outside of battling?

Leading my Kingdom

2. A trainer comes to challenge your gym with only a lv 1 Rattata. What do you do?

Decline the challenge, you must have a certain number of badges before challenging my gym and I must deem you worthy.

3. The same trainer challenges you and is beaten with ease. He seems kind of bummed out. How do you react?

"You only get one chance, begone."

4. A different trainer challenges you and he completely sweeps you with ease. After recieving a badge, he yells, "Wow, what a scrub. Glad the other gym leaders aren't as pathetic as you." How do you react?

"Don't think that you have bested me for even a second, I only used about half my power to fight you. You would tremble in fear if you saw what I was truly capable of."

5. What is your favorite season/climate?

"Any climate is fine, as long as it does not get in the way of my plans"

6. Is there any type of music that's your favorite? (ie Rock, Rap, Metal)

"Classical music puts my mind at ease."

7. What does strength mean to you?

"Having the power to do whatever you please."

8. There's a terrorist attack in your city. They have hostages trapped in a building and ask to give into their demand. What do you do?

"No one shall demand anything from me and no one shall harm the people of my land. I'll devise a plan and crush them with my forces. My Kingdom is not so weak to succumb to terrroists."

9. Is there any love interest in your life?

"My only interest is achieving Arceus."

10. Would you care for a battle right now?

"After you've met my requirements."

Alright pbood now for the specific information you asked for.

Player Losing: "hmph, I usually only allow one chance, but I enjoyed crushing you. Return if your ready to receive my judgement again." (little Arceus ref lol)

As for Ezel losing "NO MY KINGDOM!" I think works fine. Also, once you guys get along with the story a bit more, could you let me know if Ezel actually joins BN, it could impact the way I make his team and other small stuff.

Practice makes perfect, my friend. I'm not an artist, but I'm decent enough at spriting that I can draw something up. For episode 1 before I stepped down from writing the storyline, we only needed a handful of trainer sprites which are not too hard to create. Now I can't say what they need as it's possible it changed.

Sorry to double post, but there's been a lot that's been going on. Basically, I'm resuming the role of writer, but most of it will be left in the dark. You see all that stuff that you guys have access to, most of it will be irrelevant when I'm done here. Thankfully, nothing major has been revealed so everyone should still be surprised by the end of this.

But as for roles, there's still quite a few opportunities to get involved in game making should you be interested. I'll just list a few and if you leave a message Jacob or I will get back to you. Here's the ones I know we could use:

Spriters - At this point, we'll take almost anybody. You don't have to have experience but the more the better. If you already are one or are interested, PM me and I'll get you started right away. While Episode 1's planning isn't complete, we've got a general idea what we need.

Peer Reviewer/Writer - Right now, Jacob and I are the only ones with access to the plot. If you are interested in story making, I could let you into this group, however I'm only going to take a look at people who are not part of this project as of right now. If you have quite a bit of writing experience, you can PM me, but be warned I am very picky on who will either replace me or work for me.

Sub-Scenario Writers - Kind of hard to word this, but basically, this is all that filler stuff. Currently, we offered this to 3 of our members so I don't know whether or not we'd need any more. You can PM Jacob or me if interested, though you won't usually be working under either of us if accepted. The topics you will be working on will range from anything from references to event Pokemon.

Programmers - This is Jacob's territory, but we could always use another one of these guys to help out. I'm always thinking of ways to torture challenge the game's capabilities so the more the merrier I suppose. You'd have to PM Jacob for more details onto this.

What we really aren't accepting are Team Creators and new Characters. Ideas are still open, but don't expect anything or everything you suggest to be implemented. I'm a picky person when it comes to this.

Commander you should edit this and say that the sub-plot team is also being your peer reviewers and critiquers. In addition, you and Jacob are the writers so why is that in the list of roles needed?

Other than that, great informative role needed type of post. I hope you and Jacob gets lots of support and people wanting to help out. :D

Have a great night. :D
