Men vs. Women Race to 1000

-11

Let's B!tch. I feel it's a healthy release for our roleplay annoyances 2.0

@Genkai Even though in 1x1s it's just between two people, I do agree that both players should at least discuss beforehand how to start, where to begin, who goes first...

Basically, communication is key.

Rather than pushing the work to another partner, if both parties have discussed how the introduction would be like and are on the same page on the ideas, whoever is less busy can go ahead and start off first. Unless you're seriously that incompetent in English, why push all the work to one person, and then complain somewhere else about how that person is slow or whatever? You ain't being "polite" by pretending to take the back seat - it's actually the opposite.

While there are shy people who will need to take some time to muster the courage and be more forward with participation, don't forget that not everyone has so much patience to wait for you to take the first baby step. Writing is just like any other form of arts - even subjects. If you're unwilling to step out of your comfort zone, or if you're not willing to put in the effort, your writing won't get any better. And don't whine about why your writing suck even after so many years and RP attempts. You only have your own self to blame.

People can try to help you, but if you don't even help yourself, nothing will move forward. Nothing will improve.

what has the avatar above you been put in jail for and why?

Jailed for being a (bloodsucking) creep.

Pokémon: Hoenn Fantasy

FFVII | Yuffie Kisaragi

"I'm Wutai Pyre's greatest pokemon trainer! Ha-ha!"
^{(Too gold not to do this reference.)}

A P P E A R A N C E

---

Fourteen-year-old Yuffie may be just at her prime age of puberty, but her body is already showing bits of feminine curves (though still far from having a real rack like a certain someone). Her face doesn't seem to follow her body's growth, retaining the iconic babyface that makes anyone be able to recognize her instantly, much to her dismay.

She doesn't shy away from her rather... revealing choice for clothes. She prides herself as a pokemon ninja-trainer (self-proclaimed), so it makes more sense for her to wear something that maximizes mobility (showing too much skin is a secondary problem). She likes wearing a headband over her forehead to keep the fringes off her eyes, even though her hair has been kept rather short for a girl...

Yuffie is a brat - and a rather obnoxious one at that. She is in that sweet spot (read: rock and hard place) of growing up, and is currently going through what every teenager has to deal with at her age: emo-ing, rebelling... being edgy and difficult with people because she's in the process of changing from a little girl to a mature woman (hopefully). It doesn't help that she behaves like a complete tomboy, but don't assume that she doesn't have a fragile maiden heart under that tough act.

However, beneath all the temperamental dramas, she does have a soft, much nicer side in her. You need to be patient with kids to bring out the friendly, fun-loving and helpfulness hidden somewhere inside this girl.

Mt. Pyre is Yuffie's birthplace; it's also where her family, the Wutai clan, guards the blue orb that controls the legendary pokemon, Groudon. Her father is Kurasame Susaya, who is also the current clan head. He's known by the nickname "Reaper of the South" because of his icy, no-nonsense personality and is a tough tactician in battles... even in how he disciplines children. #ReaperDad

However, Kurasame isn't a completely heartless man. He wants his doting daughter to grow up in a safe environment away from the fighting (and blood) due to the clan's role of protecting the blue orb from greedy fools. So Yuffie spends most of her childhood growing up in Littleroot Town with her mother, which explains why she has adopted her mother's surname instead of her dad's.

FFXV | Ignis Scientia

"I've come up with a new recipe!"
^{(Too iconic not to include, lols.)}

A P P E A R A N C E

---

The only adult in the main cast of kids (not pedo, mind you), Ignis is that tall bloke among the shorties and thus gets the de facto role of being their guardian, shepherding them on this long journey. With his lean build and those glasses, it's no wonder he looks just like the brain of the group, though he also does most of the labor work. #KidsNowadays

The only bit of "rebellious" side to his whole prim-and-proper nerd package is the spiked brown hair, which he claims to do it not because of fashion, but is told that it's a better way to keep the fringes away from his eyes than snipping those bangs off. (Also, it gives him a more refreshing look, so why not?)

Normally he prefers to wear suits or at least formal wear, but honestly no one wears that on a hot and stuffy foot journey... So he's pretty much stripped down to his pinstriped shirt that's held down by suspender pants. He also wears gloves, but he can assure you that it's not due to germophobia.

P E R S O N A L I T Y

Ignis is a perfectionist - and he doesn't even try to hide this from anyone. You can easily tell from how well-ironed his clothes are, how he would actually measure the food ingredients so precisely with that mobile kitchen of his...

Okay, jokes aside. It's nothing that extreme, but you get the gist.

As the oldest in the odd group, he naturally feels that he has a responsibility to watch over them, and take care of them. While his face looks as if they have been frozen with an ice beam doesn't show drastic emotions like the younger ones, he does care for them - so much so that he may come across as a bit of a nagging dad at times. (Though, his great cooking can easily make the kids forget their irritation towards his overbearing protectiveness. #IgnisIsBrock)

He may look like a fonz cool person, but he's not as zen as you'd expect him to be. Behind that intelligent-looking glasses, this man has quite a pride that rides on his brain. Once you breach his fragile smart front, the cool facade would quickly fall apart... along with his tactics during battles.

Ignis originally hails from Mossdeep City, a place known for being one of the more technologically advanced areas in Hoenn, at the same time the home to the espers due to their reputation with psychic pokemons. He is the son of Regis Scientia, the current gym leader of Mossdeep Gym, who is planning to retire and let Ignis to take over... only if his son can pass the trial he has set for him.

POKEMON GYMS

< The Leaders >

---

Rustboro Gym | Cinque | Type-0

The Rustboro Gym can be found in the heart of Rustboro City, in the basement floor of the iconic Rustboro Skytree that can be seen even from the city outskirts. This underground gym has a pretty standard appearance, except that it has a layer of shield separating the audience seating area from the main field in the center. There is only one type of field: rock. Well, it's a Ground/Rock-type gym, after all.

The gym leader, though, is the complete opposite of the element type she's supposed to represent. Cinque is an airhead, and she literally lives at her own pace. However, once she's on the gym field, her true, grounded personality will show itself in the battles. You better not underestimate her - as the saying goes, "Don't judge a book by its cover"! Do you also know that she's actually the top student of Rustboro Pokemon Academy, which is the best institution in the Hoenn region?

2v2; Corsola, Marowak, Onyx.
Awards the Boulder Badge.

Pacifidlog Gym | Snow Villiers | XIII

The Pacifidlog Gym is located on the smallest island of the Pacifidlog Archipelago, in a huge quarry left behind by miners for granite for building and construction purpose to develop the Pacifidlog Town. The interior has quite a unique sight: the gym has a semi-open concept with the hole in the roof uncovered, leaving bits of green nature hanging off the sides, sometimes even attracting unlikely flying spectators. Sunlight can reach the bottom of the quarry, but only when it's right above the head. Battles are carried out over two types of fields: water and ice.

The ironically hot-headed Water/Ice-type gym leader may give off the vibe of incomprehensible stupidity, but he's a force to reckon with in a battle heated enough to melt and boil his fighting spirit. In his iconic beanie hat and long overcoat with rolled-up sleeves, few trainers are able to see beneath Snow's rather laid-back appearance and his annoyingly loud way of talking to realize he is a fearsome gym leader who knows how to grind many challengers into the freezing-cold ice... literally.

4v4; Milotic, TBC.
Awards the Iceberg Badge.

Pyre Gym | Kurasame Susaya | Type-0

(Yuffie's reaper daddy, head of the Wutai clan. Dunno about the gym leader bit, but doesn't hurt to put a placeholder for now, right?)

???; TBC.

CHAMPION & ELITE FOUR

< The Badassery >

---

Zack Fair | CC:VII

Holder of Hoenn League Champion title for two years in a row, Zack has a personality as big as his diverse and powerful pokemon team - so good that it's no doubt why he's also known as the strongest trainer in the region. (There are rumors of him specializing in dragon types, but it's really hard to tell with how he's dandy with just about any pokemon.) You'll be even more amazed that this young man once started his journey with a temperamental Bagon, which has already evolved into a Salamence, and is his number one best pal.

Tifa Lockhart | VII

One of the Elite Four, specializing in Fighting/Rock/Steel-type pokemons. Tifa may not look like it (especially with that huge bust of hers) but her fists are enough to do all the talking. Her team is as spicy as herself, and many who have dared to challenge her aren't spared from a crushing defeat from her ferocious battle style. She's often seen in cowgirl outfits, which gives her the nickname "Fist of the Western Star".

Her number one partner is Mawile... which is pretty much the literal embodiment of Tifa's very appearance, don't you think so?
