Pokemon: The Song of the Elements (Sign up and discussion here)

[EmeraldSky]

(This RP is rated E10+ for fantasy violence and frightening images)

The story:

In a fantastic Pokeworld, minstrel Brock of Argenta (the fantastic equivalent of Pewter City in this world) was summoned by the wizard Lysandre to retrieve the legendary Celestial Harp of Rainbows in return for some mystical items. But as Brock was on his way to the cave where the harp was hidden, Meloetta appeared to him to warn him that Lysandre wanted to use the harp to raise up an army of undead and ghost Pokemon, and destroy the world. Instead, she directed him to gather four other adventurers, assemble the eight jewel shards hidden in eight well guarded elemental labyrinths, and then use the powered up harp to defeat Lysandre before he can carry out his evil plot.

Brock was shaken by this news, and immediately returned to Argenta to ask any and all adventurers to help him on an adventure of a lifetime.

You play the role of one of the four adventurers that responded to Brock's plea for help--will you and Brock succeed in defeating Lysandre?

@Morzone: Your signup is Pending-this is supposed to be set in a fantastic version of the Pokemon world, so T shirts and tennis shoes would look a tad out of place--fix this with a more fantasy-esque outfit and you're good to go.
@AWA1997: You are Accepted!

[Morzone]

@EmeraldSky

Alright, I edited my form to make my character a little more Fantasy like.
Which depends on your definition of fantasy...

[EmeraldSky]

@Morzone: By fantasy, I mean magic and dragons and knights--things of that nature (as this RP is supposed to honor both the 20th anniversary of Pokemon and the 30th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda)

So after reviewing your form, you are now Accepted!

Two more slots are left!

[Trainer17]

I simply adore fantasy RPs, and now that this is mixed with Pokemon, why the hell wouldn't I sign up?! x) Oh, and Em, if I can call you that x3 can I suggest a couple more skills for Rogue?

Lightfoot - enables escaping from wild battles more easily (not 100%, but better chances of escaping)
Throw - increased damage from throwing coins, or any items (once used, not returnable; with the exception of certain items; shuriken/boomerang/etc)

Well, just some idea xD Anyways, I shall take the role of a FIGHTER!

Your character's name: Vaugnn D. Saul (Vahn D. Sah-ul)

Your character's age: 17 years old

Your character's basic appearance: Vaugn is a slim, yet muscular, slightly toned young man of average height with spiky blond hair, which is kept in strands jutting outwards in every direction, and a smaller, frontal cowlick (or tuft) of hair partially hanging over his forehead. He has slanted, slit pupiled, dark blue eyes; above the right one is a thin, diagonal scar. Sting's left ear is adorned with an earring which, in itself, is attached to by a prominent metal pendant that is crystalline in shape. A sabertooth(?) tattoo (white) is embossed on his left shoulder.

Your character's class: Fighter

Your character's known abilities:

Spoiler:

- Meditate
- Calm Mind
- Golem Fist
- Crimson Fire Dance

Your character's basic personality and known history: Vaugn is usually calm and composed in most matters, and tries not to pick a fight over a trivial matter. But he takes friendship very seriously and believes whoever abandons their comrades are scum and will not hesitate to punish them. Vaugn can appear very arrogant at times, believing true power lies in strength alone, but he does believe sheer strength isn't enough to pull him through tough times. He knows nothing about his past, only the white colored sabertooth like tattoo embossed in his left shoulder. To find out about his past, he left his "hometown" and has traveled all around Argenta seeking some answers. When he returned from his journey, he received a note from Brock to join him on an epic quest to save Argenta. Will he find the true mystery revolving around his past by saving Argenta? Are there places he truly hasn't visited yet? Only time could tell...Only the quest itself could shed some light...This time round, he isn't alone to travel, he has...Friends!

Your character's initial inventory:
- A broken sword with a dragon-like hilt (which is merely a decorative item as he rarely uses it).

- Some Coins

- Some Wine; He's not a drinker, but when he does, he does "drunken martial arts" which gives him good evasion and speed, but lowers his defenses; lasts only a couple of posts. (I hope this is okay, Em, I mean you're the game mod, so you can decide how well or how crappy he does when we have fights xD) I may be going overboard with this, but here is the theme which plays once Vaugn takes in wine and goes to "drunken mode"...


Well, its been a while since I RP'd, so if any changes are to be made for my SU, let me know!

This rp has a very huge potential, I just can't wait to get started!! You have put in quite the work Em! Well done! =)

ALSO! If you'd like, I can do some banner for you to put @ first post. I can get some samples up for you in a day or two :3

@Trainer17--Thank you--the abilities you suggested are upcoming Rogue abilities, actually.

The pictures and the video weren't needed (They would take up a lot of extra room in my notes), and Drunken Mankey style will be interesting to see when it is put in the random generator.

You won't just be seeing Argenta, but you will be seeing all the counterpart of Kanto

So for now, your signup is Pending--I only need the text of your signup for my notes, and so the pictures and videos will have to be removed so it fits in my notes.
