Labyrinth: A Pokemon Roleplay

Labyrinth: A Pokemon Roleplay

0 INK

They were on the top of the world. It seemed as if nothing could go wrong. And then...they received a strange letter with a very tantalizing opportunity. After that? Well, that's for you to find out. ALL ROLES HAVE BEEN TAKEN. But feel free to read along!

1,002 readers have visited Labyrinth: A Pokemon Roleplay since leopardspotz17 created it.

Introduction

Island of Conferos:

Image

The last letter had been finished. The ornate, red wax seal cooled on the creamy white paper. Seven other identical envelopes were lined up neatly beside it on the desktop. Each was emblazoned with different names and addresses from all over the planet. The looping, graceful script shone in crimson ink. Candles flickered in the drawing room. The writer picked up the last letter and flipped it over, lithely marking the paper with a fountain pen. Lightly blowing on the ink, the sender of the letters made a satisfied noise.

"Perfect. Andrew, mail these straight away." The burly man had been standing in the dark recesses of the lavish office. He stepped forward and gathered the messages in his large calloused hands.

"As you wish." His deep voice was a monotone. That was how it always was with the servants. Their minds were merely echoing caverns. One command and they obeyed. The writer at the desk smirked.

"Hopefully my new guests will be quite more entertaining... Ahahahaha!" The mad cackle rang throughout the manor, bouncing off the solid stone walls.

_________________________________

The world of Pokémon - I'm sure you're acquainted with it. There are the four main regions: Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sinnoh. The characters in this roleplay are Pokémon Masters from these regions. There shall be two from each. Eight in total.

Each of these Masters has been sent a letter, inviting them to the lovely island of Conferos, just a couple days sail from the Orange Islands. An assembly of sorts. A place where which all the Masters can get together for a weekend, discuss pokémon, and relax... Or so the letters said.

No posting until the RP is started! akai-pyon (the other GameMaster) and I have some ideas. Those ideas will set in motion when all the characters are signed up. I will update the list below so you all know which spots have been taken.

Kanto Master 1: Kadence "Kade" Riddell (akai-pyon)

Kanto Master 2: Hayashi Ichiro (xCrossX21)

Johto Master 1: Blake Douglas (leopardspotz17 - me)

Johto Master 2: Kazeko Seiji (akai-pyon)

Hoenn Master 1: Jeremy Thrall (TemplarWarden)

Hoenn Master 2: Skyler Reynolds (Anubus)

Sinnoh Master 1: Wallace Walker (fullmetal642)

Sinnoh Master 2: Lulu Brewster (Zombie Pulse)


You can reserve a spot by PMing me or writing in the OOC section. I'll be glad to save you a spot, but be sure to get your character in quickly, because I'd like to start this RP as soon as possible.

FINALLY - When we have all the roles taken, I will update this page. When the time comes, I will PM you all so you are aware. Important stuff will be here so make sure to keep checking in!

UPDATE (2/9/11): Great characters, everybody! All spots are filled now, so the roleplay will be going under way. Please wait just a couple days for akai-pyon and I to set everything up - we needed to wait and see all the characters before we can do anything. :) I'll PM you all when you should look back here!


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



UPDATE (2/12/11): ATTENTION EVERYONE! The roleplay has officially begun. Listed below are letters that were sent to each Master. They are in the same order as the Masters are above - Starting with the Kanto Masters, ending with the Sinnoh Masters. After reading your letter, you may post. You don't need to include a reply to the letter in your first post. Your first post should be about your character arriving on the island - that should encompass your character entering the mansion with one of your pokemon - the first pokemon listed in your party. The pokemon walking with you must be the first one listed in your character profile - this is very important, believe me. Leave your other pokemon (in their balls) with the butler at the front door for "security purposes". And now, the letters:


Kadence "Kade" Riddell (akai-pyon)

“Dear Master Kadence Riddell,

Greetings. I wish to invite you to the island of Conferos for a one-week vacation of sorts. I own the private island, and it is only a day’s journey from the Orange Islands via boat. I do hope that you will be able to attend.

I have invited seven other Masters from all around the regions. I thought it would be very educational to have the Masters all join together and maybe have a small tournament. I am a professor from a far off region known as Apaté. I work there, cataloguing information about the different varieties of pokémon as well as studying the battling styles of trainers. In order to help my studies and theories, I put it upon myself to invite 8 Masters to my island.

Master Riddell, you have risen as a very experienced and skilled trainer over the years. However, I had originally heard of you through a radio station. I believe that at some point during your travels, you had been invited on the show. I stayed tuned in and was very impressed with your musical talent. In my opinion, it rivals your expert battling. I’m very excited to see how you battle – I’m sure it will be a work of art in itself. Please send me a response when you receive this letter.

Sincerely,

Professor Dolos

Post Script: I sent this letter to the home of a Mr. Volkner. I heard through the grape vine that you were en route to Sinnoh. So, I addressed this letter to his household in hopes of it being passed on to you.”


Hayashi Ichiro (xCrossX21)

“Dear Master Hayashi Ichiro,

Greetings. I wish to invite you to the island of Conferos for a one-week vacation of sorts. I own the private island, and it is only a day’s journey from the Orange Islands via boat. I do hope that you will be able to attend.

I have invited seven other Masters from all around the regions. I thought it would be very educational to have the Masters all join together and maybe have a small tournament.

In order to help my studies and theories, I put it upon myself to invite 8 Masters to my island.

Master Hayashi, as the most recent Kanto Champion, I would be thrilled if you accepted this invitation. I’d be very interested in getting your opinion on pokémon and pokémon training. Your father was a moderately successful trainer in his day, and it would be enlightening to see if his interest in pokémon had an effect on you. I predominantly study how the personalities and histories of trainers affect how they battle and raise their pokémon. Thus, you’d be perfect to interview. Please seriously consider coming – you’d be a wonderful addition to my research. Please send a return message to me whenever you have the opportunity.

Sincerely,

Professor Dolos”


Blake Douglas (leopardspotz17)

“Dear Master Blake Douglas,

Greetings. I wish to invite you to the island of Conferos for a one-week vacation of sorts. I own the private island, and it is only a day’s journey from the Orange Islands via boat. I do hope that you will be able to attend.

In order to help my studies and theories, I put it upon myself to invite 8 Masters to my island.

I had heard of you, Master Douglas, through the papers a couple years ago. It seems recently that you’ve been relaxing. I do hope it’s not too much to ask for you to travel to my island. It would mean ever so much to my research. In addition, I’ve heard such stories of your unique battling style. Your preference for Dark and Poison pokémon, I find intriguing. I hope you won’t mind an interview or two, if you decide on coming. I attempted to learn more about what you’ve done during your training career, but I’ve had no true luck. It seems that you’ve been quite modest about your success. I’d love to get your opinion on battling techniques, along with some detail on what you’ve been up to lately. Please reply to this letter as quickly as possible.

Sincerely,

Professor Dolos”


Kaseko Seiji (akai-pyon)

“Dear Master Kazeko Seiji,

Greetings. I wish to invite you to the island of Conferos for a one-week vacation of sorts. I own the private island, and it is only a day’s journey from the Orange Islands via boat. I do hope that you will be able to attend.

In order to help my studies and theories, I put it upon myself to invite 8 Masters to my island.

Master Kazeko, I have heard numerous impressive things about you. It’s no surprise that such successful and kind-hearted breeders like your parents raised you to be an exceedingly talented trainer. Since you have fairly recently beat Johto’s Elite Four, I’d be very interested in learning of what got you to your spectacular Master status. I’d also be fascinated to discover what fuels your evident determination and confidence, and how that affects your battling techniques. Please reply to this letter as soon as you have the chance.

Sincerely,

Professor Dolos”


Jeremy Thrall (TemplarWarden)

“Dear Master Jeremy Thrall,

Greetings. I wish to invite you to the island of Conferos for a one-week vacation of sorts. I own the private island, and it is only a day’s journey from the Orange Islands via boat. I do hope that you will be able to attend.

In order to help my studies and theories, I put it upon myself to invite 8 Masters to my island.

This past year, I have heard many tales and rumors about the legendary “Mystic”. After digging around a bit, I discovered that at the heart of all the impressive and mysterious stories was you, Master Thrall. Truly, the circulating gossip concerning your skill left me in a state of fascination. It seems to me that the world of pokémon training, let alone your home region of Hoenn, has never seen the likeness of you. I’d be incredibly happy if you resolved to meet me along with the other 7 Masters on my island. It would be fascinating to see how you “tick” so to speak. I must say that I harbor great curiosity for those who break the conventional mold. So please allow me the opportunity to meet the awe-inspiring “Mystic” in the flesh. I await your response.

Sincerely,

Professor Dolos”


Skyler Reynolds (Anubus)

“Dear Master Skyler Reynolds,

Greetings. I wish to invite you to the island of Conferos for a one-week vacation of sorts. I own the private island, and it is only a day’s journey from the Orange Islands via boat. I do hope that you will be able to attend.

In order to help my studies and theories, I put it upon myself to invite 8 Masters to my island.

Master Reynolds, I’m delighted to receive such a unique opportunity. You just received your Master status, successfully beating the Hoenn Elite Four just a few weeks ago. I believe the air in the training community is still buzzing with the news. It would be simply incredible should you accept this invitation. I hope you wouldn’t mind if I tap your brain to learn about the experience of becoming a Pokémon Master. I’d also be interested in seeing what gave you the inspiration for setting out on such a long an difficult journey – though, you seemed to speed through it with relative ease, becoming a Master at 16 years of age. I wait with bated breath for your reply.

Sincerely,

Professor Dolos”


Wallace Walker (fullmetal642)

“Dear Master Wallace Walker,

Greetings. I wish to invite you to the island of Conferos for a one-week vacation of sorts. I own the private island, and it is only a day’s journey from the Orange Islands via boat. I do hope that you will be able to attend.

Master Walker, I do hope you find the time to come to the island. It would be an awesome experience for me, if I were able converse with you about your long journey to your impressive title. In fact, I’m quite interesting in your unorthodox manner of achieving Master status. I had read of your success over Master Cynthia in a newspaper a couple months back. I believe the article was entitled, “A Garchomp Standoff: The Emergence of a New Sinnoh Champion” or something along those lines. When reading the article, I myself felt the anticipation and excitement that must have filled that battle. In addition, it would be education for me to discover what tactics and knowledge you picked up while training at the renowned Battle Frontier. Please send a reply as soon as you can.

Sincerely,

Professor Dolos”


Lulu Brewster (Zombie Pulse)

“Dear Master Lulu Brewster,

Greetings. I wish to invite you to the island of Conferos for a one-week vacation of sorts. I own the private island, and it is only a day’s journey from the Orange Islands via boat. I do hope that you will be able to attend.

In order to help my studies and theories, I put it upon myself to invite 8 Masters to my island.

Master Brewster, I am particularly excited to meet you. Age fourteen, and you were already a Champion. Your success is truly remarkable. Along with your incredible history, I’d be ever so happy to meet you in person. Perhaps you’d allow me to interview you a bit. I am very interested in knowing how you prepared for your pokémon adventure, and whether or not that let you get a head start in battling. I had the pleasure of watching a couple videos of you battling, and was surprised with such ferocity and force. I hope that I will be seeing you very soon. Please send your decision when you have the chance.

Sincerely,

Professor Dolos”


Enclosed in the envelope along with the letters were directions for traveling to Conferos and a specific arrival date. Just as the Masters were about to set down their individual letters, something caught all their eyes. Scrawled in slightly messy handwriting were the following:

In Kadence’s:
In a place you’d think not to look,
For those who move at a slower pace,
There you will find,
A very, very familiar face.

In Ichiro’s:
Lesson number one:
Never assume before making a move,
Look for comfort and solace,
For one who once dove.

In Blake’s:
The moon’s shadow on his back,
Wary to the very end,
A place of unpredictability,
Look for the image that seems to bend.


In Seji’s:
A friend from the first step forward,
In a place unusual and strange,
Listen for the familiar rumble,
When another dances out of range.

In Jeremy’s:
Never quiet and always there,
Silent only in the eye,
If escape from these claws were easy,
Then life would be a lie.

In Skyler’s:
Silent as the night,
Fear the cry that never comes,
The cold that grips the core,
The legends with but a warning hum.

In Wallace’s:
High up in the sky,
The flash of light with echoes so deep,
Fear might finally encourage
One who is often found asleep.

In Lulu’s:
Never one to stray too far,
A contradiction if anything at all,
Hear the rustle to the left,
The oh-so-angry call.

Each Master disregarded the cryptic words. Perhaps the professor was a poet, and had used the envelopes as scratch paper. After all, such nonsense couldn’t truly mean anything important, could it? Each Master sent a reply back to Professor Dolos, confirming that they would arrive at the island on the 6th of August.


Letters - credited to me (leopardspotz17)
Cryptic Notes - brilliantly constructed by akai-pyon.

EDIT (2/21/11): TOURNAMENT START: Note - Prizes are given to round one winners each tournament.

ROUND ONE:
Blake VS Wallace ------ Winner = Wallace. PRIZE - 3 Hyper Potions
Skylar VS Seiji ---------- Winner = Skylar PRIZE - 2 Revives
Jeremy VS Ichiro ------- Winner = Jeremy PRIZE - 3 Max Repels

RANDOM GENERATOR PICK (using magic hat) - Ichiro

ROUND TWO
Blake VS Seiji ----------- Winner = Blake

15 minute penalty, then Seiji goes into maze.

Each Master has 1 hour in the maze. When the hour is up, they will be transported back into the arena. There they wait for all the others to come back once again. Then the next tournament begins. While waiting, Masters will face other challenges... To be announced.

ALSO! Wild pokemon can be found in the maze. They are unnaturally strong and strange in nature. Battling them can result in injury... It is best to run and evade. Some wild pokemon, however will pose challenges... Ask questions. Like the sphinx, either you answer the pokemon correctly or it will attack you. akai-pyon and I will set up these pokemon to encounter the Masters and also give the riddles.

FINALLY - General idea of the maze. The maze is split up into different sections. Each sections is specific to a certain pokemon-type. No signs or written information will alert the Masters to which section they enter into. Only clues they can pick up in their surrounding environment can hint at where they are. Each Master has a door that opens up into a different section. It is up to each writer the decide where their Master enters out. Their doors have colored light-bulbs above his or her door:
Kade - Pink
Ichiro - Indigo
Blake - Violet
Seiji - White
Jeremy - Red
Skylar - Light Blue
Wallace - Green

Toggle Rules

1. Follow the normal RPG rules, ie. no godmoding, no excessive or, for lack of a better word, vibrant swearing, etc. (You still can swear in this roleplay. I would like, however, to stay away from the F-bomb and other swears of that caliber.) If you are unsure about what is ok, PM me! Or ask in the OOC. I'm always happy to help.

2. All roleplayers MUST be active. This will be moving at a fast pace, once we start up. So, look alive.

3. When battling, we'll have to work out a system - I don't want anything like, "Gyarados used Hyper Beam, and his opponent fell instantly." That's irritating to everyone. It also falls under the category of godmoding. To decide who wins a battle, we (the Game Masters) will flip a coin. To make battles interesting, the two battling people can collaborate to make one battle post. This is why it's important to be active! You can talk to each other through the OOC section or by simply PMing one another. That way, you won't have to make 50 posts just to have a pokémon battle. Work together, and get it done in one post!

4. You must have good grammar and spelling skills. Posts don't have to be perfect, but too many mistakes can be very distracting, if not annoying. So, check your work!

5. Always speak in the 3rd person and past tense.

6. No one sentence posts. It doesn't have to be a huge multi-paragraph post, but try to fully participate. Pay attention to what others are doing, and maybe invest in some detail.

7. No Mary-Sue's/ Gary-Stu's. These are too-perfect characters that have no flaws. While your character is a Master, that doesn't mean that he or she is infallible. Give them some faults! Ex. A drinking problem, Egotism, Sadism, Suicidal Thoughts... Something. Or, if your character is morally sound, perhaps they have some other challenges to fight with. Ex. Mental disorders, lame leg, etc. Be creative.

8. Please use the Character Spreadsheet.

9. Respect and listen to the Game Masters: akai-pyon and myself (leopardspotz17)

10. Refrain from posting for now! I'll alert all players for when the RP is officially beginning. As you may have noticed, not all the information about this roleplay is detailed up above. That's because I want to keep a sense of mystery in the air. I want to be able to truly include you all in the surprise. Although, you may have pieced things together using the description and title... :)

That's all for now. Use good judgement while writing! Also, have fun.

Taking place in...

Island of Conferos our primary setting

A private island a couple days sail from the Orange Islands, home of a mysterious host.

Ichiro made a face at the crackling noise. "The hell.." he muttered right before the voice rang out. As the walls moved, Charizard roared, spreading out his wings. "Stay calm." the trainer said moving over to his pokemon's side. No wonder he had a weird feeling about this place. His hands clenched into a fist as the voice reminded them of their other pokemons. What was his point of doing this? Gritting his teeth, Ichiro jumped onto his Charizards shoulder. He placed his headphones on, and dug into his bag. Good thing he didnt throw out the letter.

As the music filled his ears, his eyes focused onto the poem.
Lesson number one:
Never assume before making a move,
Look for comfort and solace,
For one who once dove.


What did this mean...? Forgetting about the whole battle thing, he read the lines over and over again. Charizard growled low, and looked over at his trainer with a worried look. "Lesson number one... never assume before making a move.. look for comfort and solace... for one who once dove?" Ichiro mumbled outloud. "Never assume before making a move.." he said repeating the first line.

Mean while, Charizard stared at him with hopeful eyes.
"Charizard..." Ichiro started to say. "I dont get it at all." he finished after a moment of hesitation. The pokemon seemed to sigh, as he folded his wings.
What did the poem mean? Just my looking at it made Ichiro's head hurt. "I shouldnt have come here.. sorry Charizard, for putting you through this... and to the other guys as well.." he said, referring to his other pokemon.

He pulled down his headphones, just in time to hear Wallace's question. "My riddle? Lesson number one, never assime before making a move, look for comfort and solace, for one who once dove.. I'm not sure which pokemon it's giving me a hint to... perhaps pikachu? I dont know.." he muttered. Ichiro stared at his watch and sighed heavily. "This is giving me a headache.." he growled.

Any further conversation with Kade's Arcanine was interrupted when the room was filled with the painful ringing of white noise. Jeremy cringed slightly, surprised at the sudden excess of input while the more sensitive Fury crouched low whining as she tried to block the sound by droping her tail over her ears. Suddenly the crackling ceased to be replaced by a disturbing deep laugh that sounded from no where. Jeremy's gaze scanned the ceiling and room trying to find the source of the laughter that was soon replaced by a similarly sinister voice. Fury backed agianst her master, hackles rasised and teeth bared as she growled at the surronding walls. Shouts echoed around then room as the other master exclaimed with anger and surprise in response to the mysterious voice's.

Mystic did not explode into indignant anger or disbelief. He seethed, anger filled him and seemed to strengthen his gothic apperance. His mind was analysing the situation. What did it mean to be a part of the voice's "collection" It certainly wasn't good and wasn't about to give up on his pokemon. He would fight and win to reclaim his family. Only then would he consider anything else. He and Fury were startled slightly when a blue light filled the dining room, removing the walls and revealing four full sized arenas. Jeremy let his hand rest on the top of Fury's reddening fur, trying to calm her rising temper. His anger at the injustice done roiled behind his brown eyes and did little to hold back Fury's namesake. The voice sounded again, mentioning the restrains on their time in the maze and the riddle concealing their pokemon. Mystic didn't pay much attention, all that was on his mind was finding his pokemon. No matter what he needed to do and how long it will take. His determination was temporarily abstained when his attention was drawn to the pink haired Kadence preparring to enter the maze. Suddenly Fury had broken away from her master and rushed across to Resounance. Holding him back for a moment before he entered the maze.
"When you're done, come back for us. All of us." She told him, like her master she had no intention to be trapped forever. When the Arcanine had dispared she returned to Jeremy's side. Her gaze narrowed at the other pokemon, knowing that she was going to have to fight them. Kindness wouldn't help her here. Jeremy ignored the antics of other trainers and ran over the situation in his head. He would have to defeat the others to spend more time in the maze searching for all of his pokemon. He ignored the riddle, it didn't tell him where his pokemon was and finding them was all that mattered.

The screen lit up again, this time with the match ups for the upcoming battles.

Blake Douglas VS Wallace Walker
Skylar Reynolds VS Seiji Kazeko
Jeremy Thrall VS Ichiro Hayashi

There was a pause, letting the line up sink in before a voice sounded out.

"Is everybody in position?" the resounding tone echoed around the room, as the walls fell away to reveal three large battlefields.

One of them was a typical, normal field, with nothing in between the two opponents.

The second was a pool, with platforms for non-Water Pokemon to stand on.

The third was made of bubbling lava.

The clock on the wall ticked another minute.

Seiji bit his lip, as he watched the screen, as the machine randomized battling grounds as well.

"The Douglas v. Walker battle will commence on Battlefield 3."

"The Reynolds v. Kazeko battle will commence on Battlefield 1."

"The Thrall v. Hayashi battle will commence on Battlefield 2."

Seiji made his way over to his designated battlefield, as Kaori pressed herself up against his leg. She nodded, flicking her tail, radiating confidence. "Yeah, we can do this!" the silver haired master murmured.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Okay Alright. I'm still here and I've just started up the combat PMs with xCross. Unfortunately it probably won't be as fast paced as you hoped. Make sure to PM all the members so they remember to come back here.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Posted. XD

If there are still people here.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Wow I was gone longer than expeceted, I didn't go far at all though. I have an idea, We should set a specific date where evryone is free and start posting again. Just a suggestion.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

RIGHT. I was planning to do that. But I have so much work.... BLECH. Akai? Do you think you could take that over for me? Just have an automated voice announce the matches or say that the matches appeared on the board... You're a GM so you don't have to write in Kade's perspective, just a third person removed take on it. Then maybe a voice says:

"Masters, BEGIN!"

Sort of thing...

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

I think i would be a good idea to have a post where the machine shoots out the matches so it's better than random matches just starting and maybe some people are only checking the posts. just a suggestion.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Wow....I'm sorry Leopard. o.O
I'm actually on Winter Break right now....

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Round one is the first round of battles. So three pairs of two. Round two is made up of the losers of round one. In the big picture, yes everyone is basically being released into the maze at the same time. Here's an example.

Blake battles Wallace... Wallace wins! Wallace is let out into maze. That basically determines who gets out when. If you win or not. The last person in the room gets a 15 min. penalty... Basically they wait 15 minutes after the second to last person leaves before they themselves can. Does that make sense? I put more detail into the introductory page. It's at the bottom...

Blah. I'm feeling ridiculously swamped right now. I'd like to alert everybody that I'm going to be super busy. I'm on the tech crew for my school's musical, which means I spend an extra 3 hours after classes end trying to get everything ready. This is going on ALL WEEK. On top of that, my final exams take place right before Spring Break, so all my teachers are going insane. I'm just about ready to fall over and die. So forgive me if I'm late in posting responses to your questions!

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Wait so what is round one and two, and are we all being placed into the maze pretty much at the same time? Basically how is that all going to work out.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Battle Format: The way you and your opponent want to post is truly up to you. I'd like to keep it to 1-2 posts. So you can either combine into one large post, or make two separate ones containing the different perspectives. The only real requirement is to work together on the post - So there's no short posts going back and forth constantly.

Here are the Battle pairings. I will also put them in the main profile for the RP.

ROUND ONE:
Blake VS Wallace ------ Winner = Wallace
Skylar VS Seiji ---------- Winner = Skylar
Jeremy VS Ichiro ------- Winner = Jeremy

RANDOM GENERATOR PICK (using magic hat) - Ichiro

ROUND TWO
Blake VS Seiji ----------- Winner = Blake

15 minute penalty, then Seiji goes into maze.

So.... There's that! Jeez, Zombie Pulse has really thrown a wrench into everything. Eight was the magic number. That way, everything was perfect tournament-wise. X/ Oh well...

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Okay. Well people are disappearing but its temporary. You might as well display the matchings here in the OOC so we can start send PMs back and forth so we are well prepared when time comes for actually posting the battle.
With the format for the battles, do you want it to be split up into different view points so it takes one or two posts each or just compile it into one big post? If you want a big post do you want it from one view point or a copy and paste from both writers?

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

AGH! X/ So frustrated. I did post on Wednesday getting the true roleplay started. This is no vacation. And now people are going away... :P I resolved the situation w/ Zombie Pulse. Either her character's out (we'll just work with 7) or we can work her in later. I was hoping people would post some reactions. I guess I'll just come up with the matchings for our little 6 person tournament. I really wanted this to be fast paced. :'(

As for the bags situation - BLAH! I forgot to mention this. There are so many little parts that we needed to go over, and I forgot this one. I didn't want anybody to bring item bags in with them. Just have the items that your pokemon are holding. The importance of this comes in later.

So... I guess I'll start matching people up for battles. As for battling, akai-pyon and I have come up with a kind of system. Coin flip determines the winner of the battle. Then we'll post who wins what with the battle pairings. As for the actual battle posting, I was hoping that the two people involved in the battle would PM each other and write one post together. Then, you'll just have one battle post instead of 70 little moves back and forth. But this requires people to be ACTIVE. Good God...

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Unfortunately, Ill be gone untill Sunday, Which is like two days. Do what you will with my character, But he better not be dead when i get back. Lol.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Just a note to all of you:

I am going to be away for the next 4 days. But...this role play seems to be quite slow so...I don't know how many posts I'm going to have to read when I get back. I just hope it's still active.

^.^"

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Well i have an important question before i post, do we have bottomless bags, because they are in both the anime and games and i just wanted to know because if it is in this Rp i was going to use it in my post but didn't want to include something you don't intend to be part of the rp.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

so it's been 48 hours and still nothing, and it seems everyone is kinda getting bored of the lack of progression of the story, it may not be the case with everybody but i was honestly excited with the idea of the story and the promise of a fast paced RP and honestly want to find out what you guys have in store for all the trainers, i just wanted to know what will be done.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

we could always PM her all the things tht happened so far in the rp.. and i guess just drag her character along.
maybe the GM can control her character for now? idk... --;

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

I say we keep the interaction going, we don't have to continue the story until the situation with Zombie is finalised. That way the roleplay stays active without having to kick Zombie right now. Unfortunately I will be absent for three days so just treat my character as a shadow in the background for now.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Why don't we just move on to the dinner stating that it moves past 8 o'clock and when and if zombie pulse pops up the she could just join us. Also if we do this and it is decided a new trainer needs to join, they could just pop up late or something.

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

.....we could just keep posting? *shrugs*

I don't want this role play to die. X)

Re: [OOC] Labyrinth: A Pokémon Roleplay

Hmmm... I honestly don't know what to do. X/ I don't want to just give her position away - like, what if there was some emergency concerning her? We'll see for the next 48 hours. I hope she comes back soon... Argh!
