[quote=@lavulman] It's written in a third-person perspective. This doesn't imply that the character knows the other character, it implies that the narrator knows the other character. Either way, it's generally easier on both the writer and the readers to just refer to him as "Dexter" than "The Growlithe" or something all the time. [/quote] [@Lugia] Yes, I generally role-play from a third person perspective. When speaking first-person is implemented for obvious reasons. Out of dialouge though, I can use a variety of terms for him varying from the orange pokemon, Growlthe, Dexter, might even shorten names like Thassa to Thas or Dexter to Dex to save time. If Falvev knows the character though he would ask before using shortened names like that and would obviously have to learn the name before using it in the first place. As for knowing Thassa, we did a prepatory RP together ( Me and Anlu ) to get the characters ready to jump in, which is why they knew each other. And thank you lavulman
