Insurgence | Medieval Pokemon RP

I'll be working on my post this evening, but I was playing around with Photoshop and an online fantasy map creator using the map Crow posted up a page or two ago. It's by no a true reference to the world as it's a personal interpretation, but I thought it'd be cool to share.



I used the details in the first post to give it a rough design, and I remember Chexmix mentioning mountains between Leonias and Argent in one of his posts.

1 primary GM and 2 co-GMs. That is three.

Alright, let's see...

Illusion
McHaggis
Densoro
ImpLaughs
innertt
NuttsnBolts
Ananfal
RestlessComfort
Crow
c3p-0h
Alter Ego
ChexMix

If you include Twilight it's 13.

Shall I create a poll external to this site?

@Chexmix
If others agree with your words, the poll will select the top 1, instead of the top two.

@Crow

Maybe use Strawpoll? one option available if you've already been pre-selected by Twilight.

Well, we could make do with four instead of chooding from three, or I could pop this question:

Who doesn't mind getting spoiled on the later story?

Alright, I'll get on my comp and list the people.

@Crow

Actually, I was wrong. Having a look at the settings on another RP I'm running, you can only add two Co-GMs.

Example

I would suggest sticking to this structure and not arbitrarily adding more than it allows. So we should pick two people. It comes down to the old saying as well, "Too many chiefs, not enough indians". If we have 4 GMs then who is gonna be the members that roleplay? (And I've never heard of 4GMs in a roleplay before)

Simply put, we will vote on two members (With the possibility of at least 1 not having anything to do with the previous version) and leave it at that. As I said before, they will be there to control any disputes and arguments. They should not be able to control the story but ask the community what they would like to happen and guide them with plot points and milestones.

NOTE: I could probably Co-GM as I've done it before, but have no preference to wanting to do it or not.

I believe the max that the forum setting allows is 3, @Crow, which is more than enough. :)

I wanna make a comments on moving and co-gms.

Firstly, I don't think were should move. This is twilight's thread and his rp. Altering and taking the rp away from him is a bit of a kick in the guts, especially with the hardship he's going through. The best thing were can do for him is show that he has a great idea and we have kept it alive for as long as possible.

Secondly, with co-gms I don't believe that because someone was in a previous version that they should automatically be entitled to a co-gm position. That's a bit dictatorship with said person receiving the role when other candidates could be better. What we should do is vote in someone based on merit and what we have seen, but vote in as many co-gms as the forum allows. We can ask a mod to make those thread changes and changes and keep the thread going. Bare in mind however that if twilight comes back and boots these co-gms, they cannot argue back as it is his his puppy and his word is law.

Now I might remind people that the co-gm position means that they will be there to control any disputes and arguments. They should not be able to control the story but ask the community what they would like to happen and guide them with plot points and milestones. I speak of this because I know some RPs have some strict storymode but without the know-how of the GM, we are essentially on our own.

@Chexmix like the idea of an aggressive nation or missing people. One suggestion I thought of is that they advanced on ahead in order to cut off the party.

I'm happy to go with the flow. We're heading up towards my homeland so I can utilise that as well.

@Chexmix, know I'm stating the obvious, but I won't post until you've done yours.

@Crow'let's move on to the speech'.

I'm always under the impression that there should be motives and a goal. The journey can take twists and turns, but I'm sure that setting out to do something will yield some interesting results. :)

"Where I'm from?"

The presented question somewhat caught her off guard thinking that it would be obvious considering she was seated at the Argentian's table, but taking a quick glance around she came to the realisation that no one was really sitting under their country's banner. Most people were migrating from table to table in an effort to branch their connections, whether it's be in good spirits or for an ulterior motive was still something that was left open to a later discussion.

"I'm from Argent, but my family originally migrated there from the Xiurong region a lifetime ago," Jin began as she opened up a bit to her newly found associate. She leaned back relaxing a bit as she held up her hand and pointed to Scizor, "He's cute."

By this time there was a cluster of bubbles surrounding Scizor and you could see his attention was drawn in quite deeply. No one would have blamed him either with all the colours of the rainbow reflecting along the glossy surface. Letting her hand drop to her side, Jin tapped Staryu gently and heard the familiar chirp that he often makes. The gem in the centre of his body instantly glowed red and he bounced up from his resting position onto two of his arms, standing proud and vibrant.

"He sometimes gets a bit carried away," Jin giggled as she began to tickle the back of Staryu's body, "It's a good thing I don't have any rock Pokemon otherwise they would be constantly fighting with the amount of bubble he releases... Well I don't believe I do."

Jin looked down to her lap and pulled out a small rucksack from under the table. Opening it up and reaching in, she exposed a small rock roughly about twice the size of a closed fist. It had a few unusual markings and a crack along the front. She calmly analysed it within her grasps holding it close enough so that the whole room couldn't see what she was doing, all while twisting her hand around so that she could see all the surfaces. "I have no idea what Pokemon this is meant to be but it's something my grandmother gave me before I came here." As she held onto the rock it began to resonate with a subtle whisper before she quickly stuffed it back within her bag. As interesting as it was, it did creep her out a bit.

Looking up at Gentry she took her turn to pop a question of curiosity, "I don't suppose you have any other Pokemon, do you?"

Yeah, I think the speech may be due soon. There's only so much that people can write about a dinner party before a speech, not to mention with the amount of people in one room making it a bit awkward and difficult at times. Already had to edit 1 post due to mis-reading the confusion and it seems like a few others are experiencing some of that confusion too.
