[CHAR] Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of the Void

[Stale Pizza]

Well, then, in that case, I think you're good to post... unless you want to wait for Kabling's judgement.

@Lugia

i need to check but i got homework to do

then procrastination urghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

@KaBling

By the way, where are all the characters now, and what are they doing?

Right now I can't really edit, but I've decided that Levita could be the older sister (which would make more sense on why she envies her younger half-brother).

[KaBling]

Both apps accepted.

lavul, Miles should have some interesting interaction with Rebecca.

Name: Ukki

Species: Chimchar

Gender: Male

Appearance: Ukki’s color scheme is that of an average chimchar’s. Just the normal brown and cream. However the tuft of fur on his head seems a bit more scruffy than average. He is often seen wearing a dark blue vest and red bandana, and never leaves home without his trusty walking stick that doubles as a weapon in a tense situation.

Differences: None currently.

Moves:
-Thunder Punch
-Ember
-Taunt
-Scratch

Ability: Iron Fist - Boosts the power of punching moves.

Bio: Ukki’s life, in the beginning, wasn’t all that interesting, in his eyes at least. He grew up in a small village not too far off Allure and Treasure as the son of an explorer pair. Though the two weren’t world renowned, they were locally famous within the town itself, always working to help those whom needed it. Now this was all well and good, except for the fact that Ukki himself was always addressed as not himself, but the son of explorers.

The little chimchar would always try his very hardest to prove that he was something more than just that, often going out of his way to do something interesting or remarkable, but would only end up hearing something along the lines of, ‘You’re just like your folks when they were your age.’

Fed up with this, one day while his parents were out on a mission, he snuck his way to Birchwood Forest. He was going to prove he could take on a dungeon all by himself, then they’d see.

Unfortunately for Ukki, this was easier said than done. While the pokemon there were weak, at the time, he was even weaker. A level 2 chimchar had no business being there without backup, something Ukki was forced to learn the hard way. As he made his way through the forest, he was jumped by a rather aggressive high level beedrill.

Ukki, for a while, took the brunt of the damage due to his opponent’s superior speed. He stalled as much as he could, hoping maybe Blaze would kick in and give him the last burst of energy he needed to get outta there. However, even with his health dwindling, the ability had yet to activate.

As the beedrill finally closed in on the cornered and weakened chimchar, a strange instinct flooded Ukki’s mind. His left paw closed up into a fist, and when the bug got close, he swung with all his might. To his shock, as his fist made contact with the other pokemon’s face, his entire paw was coated in sparks. The beedrill fell to the ground,now fainted from a single powerful critical hit.

At that moment, Ukki discovered two things. One, he’d discovered his ability to use a move his father used all the time. Thunder Punch. Two, his ability wasn’t Blaze at all! It was Iron Fist, which also happened to be his father’s ability.

It was then that his parents rushed in, and after hugging him and giving him a stern talking to they’d decided that he was at the appropriate age to begin training. And so for the next few years they trained. He fought along side his parents through smaller time dungeons, doing all he could to make them proud. However, this didn’t change his reputation as merely the son of explorers, much to his frustration.

Recently, he’s decided it was time to leave the nest. So after sharing a hug or two with his family, he set out to finally make a name for himself. He was going to travel to the places most pokemon only dream of, and maybe even join a guild. Only time will tell if he succeeds in his goal.

[Lugia]

The only real problem is the fact that we removed levels, so... a few minors edits and it looks like it'll be fine. Also, no need to announce your character's nature, lol.

[Mysterious7]

Aaand fixed. The nature is just to add a little flare since it's such a big part of the Mystery Dungeon games.

[Lugia]

But... it's not such a big deal in this RP.

[Mysterious7]

There we go. Are the moves ok? Or do they have to scale as if you start from level 5?

[Lugia]

Nah, the moves are fine. You're in.

Honestly, I'm glad you didn't go with a 'he wuz humann but then he fell and now he'z a pokeman.' type of story, like the games.

[Mysterious7]

Heh, thank you. I knew that wouldn't fit in with the lore of the current rp. I just went for something simple.

Thanks for lookin over my sheet.

[Lugia]

You may post IC now, if you'd like.

[Mysterious7]

Do I just post? Where is everyone exactly?

[KaBling]

I was supposed to make a map, but I was too busy.

Name: Chip
Species: Nincada
Gender: Male
Moves:
- Scratch
- Harden
- Fury Swipes
- Leech Life
Bio: Chip was hatched in the wild just outside of Allure Town. He was part of a growing colony, with hundreds of nincada and fewer ninjasks. He technically didn't have a name at that time, because there wasn't much need for names if you looked the exact same as everyone else. As the colony got bigger, the colony spread out, parts of it even in the town itself before they were shooed out of the town. Chip was lucky enough to fine an abandoned building where he was able to stay and grow, physically and mentally. He picked up some of the social norms of the town after a year or so, and even learned part of the language there. Not enough to speak fluently, but enough to introduce himself, or saying what he wanted. He rarely left the abandoned building and was able to 'befriend' a joltik that lived in the trash can outside of the house, and the dedenne who lived in the house's left wall.

City life was definitely a change for him, because his antennas picked up so much more than when he lived underground. He got the name Chip because he didn't already have a name, and he loved to munch on chips. They reminded him so much of dried up leaves, except they actually have taste. He kept hearing of a 'guild', and even though he didn't know what a 'guild' thing was, he wanted to join it. Really badly. He figured that a new place means new friends, and that joltik in the trashcan hadn't moved from his curled-in sleeping position for days. It may have taken him about four hours to find the place, but once he finally got in, he knew that it must be some type of guild place! It smelled like there was food someplace, and he eventually found the stairs and went up to the right room to join. He knew because he heard a squawking voice yell quietly at him for coming in so late. Another voice quieted the squawking one and asked why he was there, to which he used his normal introduction. "Hello. Am 'Chip'. Want to join 'Guild,'" Chip exclaimed, and the voice stayed quiet for a moment. Not even the annoying one talked. "Well, what team would you like to join, or would you like to start your own?" and Chip made his own team. Team Chip, destined to be the greatest team ever! ... Until no one else joined his team.

Chip eventually went on his first expedition in one of the easiest areas to fight in, according to everyone in the guild, and he defeated a few foes and learned a new trick or two before retreating like a baby back to the guild when he heard about 20 giant footsteps coming his way at a rapid pace. To this day, that was the only 'mission' he ever took on Team Chip, mostly because he quit after the fifth day of loneliness. To be honest, he never even completed the mission, which was to defeat a Conkeldurr somewhere in the forest. Maybe those giant steps were the conkeldurr and his friends? But no matter what, Chip had heart. He wasn't good at fighting, but damn was he a nice kid.
Appearance: Normal nincada.
Differences: None

[Evanist]

Reading the app, I don't see anything that would cause trouble. Still, feel like could have added something else in difference but that is only my opinion.

Accepted.

[Sumable]

Oh, also, Team Chip isn't a real team; he's going to quit it in his first post.

Name: Scraps

Species: Scraggy

Gender: M

Moves:
– Sand-Attack (Ground/Status)
– Headbutt (Normal/Physical)
– Low Kick (Fighting/Physical)
– Feint Attack (Dark/Physical)

Bio: Similar to many other Scraggys, Scraps was born as the fourth of five Scraggys sons and daughters; his parents were related to a gang in the "bad neighborhood" by blood. The Underground Gang as it was called (ironically, their base of operations were hardly, if ever, underground, and they were far from subtle) were frequently involved with gang battles that caused a lot of destruction for a small amount of control over certain area of the neighborhood.

Scraps' parents, however, was not interested in that sort of life, and moved back into Allure Town for a more casual replacement, and ended up placing themselves in a Fighting Dojo association – the most notable one being Lee's Dojo, though there were many others throughout some towns and cities. They believed it was better for their children to live away from negative influences despite their troubled pasts. Overall, Scraps' family was from the darker side of town, but they haven't experienced any direct serious tragedy.

Scraps was even able to befriend some other Pokemon, along Kawazu, a Mienfoo, who claimed that his mom was the manager of a Fighting Dojo in a more distant land. While the Mienfoo often came up with stories that were often flashy and fake, they had formed a friendship that lasted for some years, and occasionally sparred.

Gang life eventually came back to haunt them, however, especially with some separate family affairs, debts, and fights, and Scraps' parents decided to place him into the Allure Town's guild in hopes that he could fully stay away from the gangster life that awaited their family along with some of his still young siblings; they were rapidly placed into the guild, but due to recent complications, were placed into different rooms with different teams. Now away from his regular life, Scraps tries to make the best out of his new surroundings, doing whatever was needed to survive. He writes to his friend every week in the guild, and often refers to him as he talks.

Differences: No physical difference, though Scraps wears a white scarf around his torso.

@KaBling I've finished another app, mind accepting or denying it?

Name: Nina
Species: Nidoran
Gender: Female
Moves:
- Poison Sting 1 {----------}
- Double Kick 1 {----------}
- Scratch 1 {----------}
- Flash Tackle (Power: 45, Type: Light/Physical, Effect: Has a chance to make the target pokemon flinch.

Bio: Nina was the daughter of Alex, the nidoqueen, and Joseph the nidoking, and, for a while, the two stayed together, and raised their daughter together. It was during this time when Nina was given a strange necklace with a very bright tear-shaped crystal in it. Said crystal resembled a diamond, save for the fact that it seemed to give off light whenever it was dark. This, however, wasn't going to last, as Alex was chosen to guard the light orb, some sort of artifact that could end all life as we know it if it was put into the wrong hands. She took that job so seriously, that she tried to force the others into moving closer to the orb. This caused some tension with Joseph, who liked the house he lived in for the past ten years, but not so much with Nina, who always wanted to see more of the world than just her front door and porch. Tension only rose as the two continued to argue about where they should live, and eventually, it led to them splitting up.

Alex apparently ended up 'getting' Nina on the weekends, while Joseph ended up with her on the weekdays, which kinda annoyed Nina, mainly due to the fact that, at least according to her, weekends were supposed to be fun, and, unfortunately, Alex's place wasn't. At all. Yes, as it turns out, Alex's job was guarding an orb that was located in the middle of a stinky, nasty, wet swamp, and she lived right under the thing, too. The cave that she lived in was barely large enough for just Alex alone, let alone Alex and Nina. From that point onwards, Nina vowed to get away from this place, even if Alex was always very nice to Nina. The place only continued to get on her nerves more, as, whatever things actually worked down there pretty much broke weekly, and almost always, the lift was broken on Saturday, only for it to be fixed on Sunday... which meant that Nina would almost always have to sleep outside on Saturday, outside in the stinky swamp. There also wasn't enough food for two pokemon in Alex's place, as apparently, being a guardian of some orb didn't pay all that much, despite it being such an important job.

All of this only made Nina's desire to leave grow over the years, and it seemed like there was no escape from this, no, she couldn't just walk away, the other pokemon of the swamp would notice her, and bring her back to Alex's house, if you can call it a house, and every time she tried to teleport via some badge an explorer by the name of 'Desia' dropped near Joseph's house, it wouldn't let her, with the badge saying something about 'emergency' mode, and not knowing where to teleport her, or something stupid. That didn't stop her from keeping the badge, and trying every Saturday when the lift broke down, though. Eventually, a group of pokemon came to steal something from Alex, and from what Nina heard, it might have been the orb. At this point, she didn't care, she just wanted to leave this place, so, the first chance she got, she tried to go with them to whatever amazing place they went that wasn't here. She leaped at them, shouting "WAIT FOR ME!" as the group, which consisted of a grey snivy, a magnemite with three magnets, a pale-looking sylveon, a dark blue gyrados, and a jolteon, teleported away. She was just a bit too late, and didn't get teleported, however.

Lying on the ground, crying at her failed attempt, Nina was defeated. This was her last chance, her final attempt before just giving up and staying with her mom instead of going off and exploring, however, Alex emerged from her cave of a home, and walked up to Nina. "Did you want to leave this place?" Alex asked Nina, who nodded, not wanting to lie anymore. "You want to join an exploration team, don't you?" Alex asked Nina again, who hadn't really thought about joining anything like that prior to this. Exploration sounded fun, though, always having a change of scenery, never really staying in one place, so, she nodded to that, as well. "I'll take you to a guild," Alex then assured Nina, who dried her tears, and asked "R-really?" Alex nodded, and the two set off to find a guild. Thanks to Alex's status around the swamp, no pokemon dared to attack her, or Nina, for that matter, and it didn't take too long before they came across what looked to Nina like a sprawling metropolis with far too many pokemon in it. Nina was amazed, but Alex, having been here before, wasn't as surprised by it. The two quickly found the Allure Town guild, evidently run by an audino, but that was where Alex left Nina, who had to take her first steps into the guild on her own.

Appearance: She looks fairly normal, aside from her necklace.
Differences: Nina has the 'Light' sub-type, and has a move relating to said type. She may learn more as she grows stronger.

[Evanist]

I think that this app is... ACCEPTED!

[Kamen Evie]

So what about Scraps' app?

[Lugia]

I'm not entirely sure Stale NEEDS an app for Scraps, seeing as how he's an NPC.
