Oh, I hinted that he was hiring a transport! Granted, it was the final paragraph, so I can see why it was missed. The idea is that his Staraptor isn't strong enough to be a cross-region transport, and especially not while injured. But the bird is a relatively recent addition to his team. Most of them are, actually. Stahlblatt has a well established transport system, especially for transporting goods between the mountains. So of course they got transports that do people! The idea is like... They have a sort of prototype inter-regional transport that has a serious malfunction that leads to a catastrophic failure and one of the engines explodes. Nothing seriously bad, but definitely enough to force the aircraft to land and a disgruntled scientist to try his best in fixing the thing. He's a doctor in both biotechnology and regular technology, after all!

And I'm glad that you think the idea of his musical tastes is interesting! I've always found contrast in music is fun. Like a tough biker-type character being into something like k-pop, a country farmerly type being into electronica, and of course, an Adolphian being into hard metal. It helps to showcase a character! Metal especially helps to showcase his internal emotions are a lot harsher than what we see. I get that sounds edgy, but hey, it is what it is.

I think it's my go, next. Now, for a quick question. Would anyone mind if I decided to interrupt things with a wee... Disaster? Nothing serious of course, just something along the lines of mechanical issues causes an emergency landing in the middle of the woods, as opposed to a proper landing in a designated spot? Nobody would be hurt, but it would lead to a certain scientist making an appearance earlier than he'd have planned. And getting a chance to curse out(no actual real life curse words, just an opportunity for creative wordplay) his malfunctioning tech.

I'm debating what kind of music I think Adolphian would listen to in his free time. I'm definitely thinking something hard like metal, but do I want something exceptionally hard like this: youtube.com/watch?v=FoedCng--Rs and this: youtube.com/watch?v=Ps0MfBG5-Uo ? Or would something lighter like this prog-rock work better: youtube.com/watch?v=yGc66wTvmVE

Or heck, would he not be into rock and instead be into something like Finnish Folk music: youtu.be/hqthspSKZV8 ?

I need a second opinion! He started life as a self insert many years ago, and though he's evolved past that, I wouldn't want his musical tastes to be anything I wouldn't listen to. And I think music taste is as important to a character as anything else!

Well, that's certainly wholesome! Cool to see you're using a shared interest to teach your kid a valuable lesson!

I don't really have a plan set for my Adolphian, actually. For him, I'm at the very least having his main goal ultimately be to eventually challenge his mentor and defeat her in battle, but he certainly has a long way to go. He's by no means a weak trainer, but he's certainly not champion level. He'll use this opportunity to strengthen himself and his team, as well as use it as an excuse to explore beyond his homeland. Pokemon battling isn't as popular in Stahlblatt as it is in other regions, most folks tend to keep a few Pokemon on them just for protection. Heck, they don't even have anything equivalent to a Pokemon league. The closest thing they have is an annual meetup of trainers to showcase their Pokemon and exchange tips in how to raise them to their best potential. I can certainly see Adolphian taking interest in the whole gym challenge thing, if only to use it as a means of learning how to apply techniques used by other trainers in order to improve his own training. If he ends up becoming well known in the process... Well, that's the unfortunate side effect of his efforts.

I totally get the sickness. I've also come down with a cold. It'll certainly be interesting to see how y'all influence eachother's growth!

Cybernetic blue man? Bwahaha! You make him sound like a rejected member of the blue man group and I love that mental image!

Really excited to see what everyone else is going to bring! It's been so long since I did a proper roleplay like this!

And another good post!

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it! I don't have much work done on Stahlblatt but what I do have, I'm quite proud of!
