Cries of the Dead-Sign-In

Unread post by Azunara »

Intro:

Cries of the Dead is yet another Pokemon RP, the follow-up to a number of different RPs. Unlike the others, this is less of a sequel and more of a fresh start. It takes place several years after the events in the War against the Dusk, and the Dusk at this point is but a fading memory, like a bad nightmare chased away by the morning.
---

Rules:
1. Please post name and location of character at the head of each post. I.E. “Azunara, RP forum” or “Solara, Dusk Base” or “Speck, Giratina’s Realm.”
2. Indicate when different characters are being used, whether it’s a dash or dots or something in between sections.
3. Please put in an effort to use proper grammar and spelling.
4. Please be respectful towards each other.
5. No “special” characters. As in, no Hybrids, Delta, or Fakemon. (Taragita is the exception for Plot Purposes, obviously.) Legendaries and Shiny Pokemon are legit.
6. Please, for the purposes of this fresh-start RP, let your old characters rest. Try something new. :3

Plot:

Long, long ago. when Arceus had just created the world, he created a set of twins to domain over the realm of the dead. Giratina, the darker sibling, and Taragita, the lighter sibling. Giratina ruled over the Lower World, where the wicked and malevolent spirits were sent, while Taragita dominated the Upper World, where those who had been kind and benevolent were sent. Years pass, and Giratina is no longer pleased with his position. He wishes to be in the sun, so he speaks with his sister, and she, on his behalf, pleads with Arceus.

He shoots them down, however, so the twins plan, and rise up against the God, leading their armies of Dead. But Arceus overpowered them and for their insolence, punished them. He banished Giratina, to be doomed forever to his realm of shadow, and he would then on accept any spirits henceforth. Taragita was bound into a crystal, which was separated into three pieces and given to Arceus' most devoted followers: Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf.

---

Similar to the AQ events, the goal is to find the three legendaries and take their shards. This will be harder than it seems, because they are devoted to their God. Giratina's dead has risen from his realm, and now attacks and hurts the living, trying to cause chaos and force the God out of hiding, so he may destroy him and save his sister.

So, we have two sides: The Salvation, those who side with the Arceus, and the Hunters, those who side with Giratina. The Salvation is made out of living and dead alike, who wish for the Hunters to go away and everything to return to peace. The Hunters are mostly the Dead who wish to be freed from their realm of suffering and live in the world again, or the old spirits who knew of the Upper World and wish to go there.

You can choose to be either side. You can also play a spirit, or a legendary. I would need three people really to RP Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit. Depending on what side you're on, you're either trying to get the pieces, or play keep away and protect the pieces.




---


The Salvation: The Salvation is a group of Pokemon that side with Arceus in this war. They have varying reasons, from devotion to a want for peace. Their goal is to protect the Pieces along with the three Lake Spirits. However, they can also be spirits of the Dead who wish only to avoid this whole mess and don’t want to harm anyone, or are too scared to change what has been for so long.

---

The Hunters: These consist mostly of Giratina’s spirits, freed from his World by his powers to destroy the Lake Spirits. At first, they were peaceful, asking politely for the livings’ help. When they were refused, they became hostile and tried to kill and hurt all. As a Hunter, they can imitate forms of those who are loved by the living, in order to paralyze their victim with fear. When they touch someone, they form a contact that, much like the Dusk Voices, constantly whisper and terrify the victim to the point of insanity. The Hunters can also consist of Living who decided to join along with them and wish to see Tiragita returned to her rightful place.

Legendaries:
Uxie: Senna
Azelf: Aleu
Giratina: Rubybeam
Mesprit: Moonlost
Arceus: Azunara
Taragita: Azunara

Basic Form: Doesn't have to be followed to a T, but it is suggested.

Obviously, it wouldn't be that much of a IC knowledge until the RP picks up, and obvious stuff like opposing types isn't too needed, but the idea is there. Sol, for example, couldn't do much at night.)

Name: Aurora Umbria.
Type of Pokemon/Race: Human (Pokemon Trainer).
Gender: Female.
Age: 18
Description: Picture! (Note: This does have her other Pokemon, but as usual, only six of them are on her team.)
Personality: While usually calm and sweet, Aurora sometimes carries a sarcasm like tone when needed be. She will avoid giving into taunts to avoid loosing her temper. Her love for Pokemon is mainly for Dark Types, believing their misplaced reputation is by some of being "evil" is wrong.
Background: Aurora hails from a small town in the mountains within the Johto Region. She set out with her starter and an egg given to her by her mother, a owner of a small Pokemon Ranch. Aurora had made her way through regions, catching the Pokemon she sees she can work with or feels connection too. She has since a decent collection, but hasn't been rotation to team as of lately, keeping those she believes are her "Ace" Pokemon with her.
Weaknesses: Aurora has been known to be far too passive or far too aggressive when battling. Becoming too over confident when she's backed her opponent into a corner, she assumes she has won and most of the time slips at costing her a win. Other times, although not too often, she had crack under pressure when she's backed into a corner.

Name: Tsuki.
Type of Pokemon/Race: Umbreon.
Gender: Female.
Age: Young Adult.
Description: Black body, long ears... Do I need to explain an Umbreon here? :P
Personality: Tsuki carries a lot of personality from her trainer. Calm and very respectful, but will to give her all whenever she is called out for battle. Unlike her other Pokemon, Tsuki much rather prefers to stay outside her Pokeball, rather than in. She currently stands at Aurora's "Top" Pokemon that she has.
Background: Tsuki was given to Aurora as an egg, a present for her trainers first journey. She hatched shortly after she left New Bark Town and made a friendship with Aurora's Chikorita, Sage. Due to her normal typing and lack of moves, Tsuki had a hard time battling for as an Eevee, but finally managed to evolve later in her journey.
Weaknesses: Besides being weakened to Fighting and Bug, Tsuki is also built defensively and lacks most offensive attacks. Dealing hits aren't her strong point, but taking them would be.

Aurora's other Team Pokemon

Name: Sage.
Type of Pokemon/Race: Meganium.
Gender: Male
Age: Young Adult.

Name: Talon.
Type of Pokemon/Race: Braviary.
Gender: Male.
Age: Adult.

Name: Rebecca.
Type of Pokemon/Race: Raichu.
Gender: Female.
Age: Young Adult.

Name: Blazer.
Type of Pokemon/Race: Arcanine.
Gender: Male.
Age: Adult.

Name: Tai.
Type of Pokemon/Race: Floatzel.
Gender: Male.
Age: Adult.

Note: Aurora's Pokemon team are subject to change and rotation based on what she feels necessary.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Name: Azelf
Type of Pokemon/Race: Azelf.
Gender: Male.
Age: Ageless?
Description: Picture!
Personality: Azelf is said to be the "Being of Willpower" and thus he has a strong determination to continue a fight even if it seems all hope is loss. While cautious around humans, he still gives both Pokemon and Humans the will to fight on throughout all the difficulties in life. He's not afraid to show his bolder side if felt threatened in any way and will attack should he feel the need to.
Background: Azelf has been said to have been born from the same egg as Mesprit and Uxie. He took flight and when he did, he gave the humans of the world the willpower to achieve anything. He holds one of the crystals that binds Taragita to the realm of shadows.
Weaknesses: Despite having a strong will, Azelf can get into a tough situation that may require him to back off instead of continuing to fight. He tends to dismiss the saying, "Fall back to fight another day" and keep going even if it's still doing no good. Being cautious could also cost him if he does not react in time.

Apologies for the short profiles. =( I didn't want to give her other team members big profiles as they likely won't be seen as often.

Name: Sludge
Species: Muk
Gender: Male
Age: Like middle age.
Description: Your basic Muk, aside from keeping a teddy bear an old friend gave him inside his sludge. http://serebii.net/pokedex-bw/089.shtml

Personality: Kind of a loner. He lives in the sewer, keeping to himself. In times of peril, he opens his home for others to take shelter in to protect them. The pokemon that met him state that he's a pretty nice guy if you get him talking, although it is difficult to pull off. One of his guests, a little Pichu girl, gave him the teddibear he carries in her memory. Secretly, he's quite lonely.

Background: Grew up under a trainer's care. He was raised to be a strong, powerful fighter. His trainer retired however and release him. Being a trained pokemon, Wild ones don't accept him as easily, leading to his hiding in the sewer. He rarely leaves, usually only for food. He only let's others in when things look grim. His favorite guest was a little Pichu girl. She was his best friend. She has since passed away, but he holds her teddybear to keep her in his thoughts.

Weaknesses: VERY slow....a fast opponent could get the drop on him easily. He doesn't open up to others easily, making it hard to get allies. Being a Poison type, Ground and Psychic moves are deadly for him.


----

Name: Nick
Species: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Description: pretty average height, slight muscular build. Hair is dark brown. Has blue eyes. Wears a black shirt with a Red and Teal DNA helix on it. His shoes have shapes of Feraligatr spikes on the sides.

Personality: Easygoing, calm, friendly. He likes meeting new people...though he prefers meeting new pokemon. He is very protective of his friends. Can get a little cocky.

Background: Grew up in Petalburg City of Hoenn. There, he learned how to be a trainer from his father. His father retired one day and gave him his first pokemon, a Hippopotas. He named her Sandy. The two did everything together.

Lately, after becoming Sinnoh Champion, he's just been travelling with Sandy, checking out the world.

Weakness: Can get cocky. Willing to throw himself into harm's way for Sandy.

Fun Fact: During his travels in Johto...he befriended and trained a Feraligatr and a Raichu....they were later named Chomp and Sparky.
------
Name: Sandy
Species: Hippowdon
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Description. Basic female Hippowdon. She has a scar on her flank from when she battled Cynthia's Garchomp.

Personality: Hot headed, eager for a fight, but still cares for her trainer. She tends to act tough and cocky to friends.

Background: Was given to Nick by his father. She aided him in his Sinnoh league challenge, evolving into a Hippowdon during the battle against Cynthia.

She has been by Nick's side for years, and is fully willing to keep him safe. She hates her pokeball and prefers to carry her trainer around.

Weakness: She DESPISES water. It burns her excruciatingly at even the slightest touch. Ice, while not as bad, still is a problem. She's quite slow as well. Her Sand Stream ability can be a detriment to most friends.

Name: Tora
Type of Pokemon/Race: Raikou
Gender: Female
Age: She's a Legendary, why should she care? (Young)

Description: She's a pretty average raikou, not much to say. She has a few scars from travel, but her claws are still pretty sharp, as are her teeth.

Personality: Energetic. She can't sit still for the life of her. She always has to be moving, and she grows impatient extremely fast. If she isn't doing something, then she's going to be upset. She's friendly, making friends rather quickly, and tries to keep them. She's extremely curious.

Background: Daughter of one of the Crown Beasts, Tora was raised for a while with the other three, growing up a bit before going out and seeing the world. She explored the regions lazily, sort of wandering, until she heard of the War that was coming. With the Legendaries splitting, who to side with who, she decided that she would side with Arceus, because she was, quite honestly, freaked out by the Hunters.

Weaknesses: She acts first, thinks later, which can get her into a lot of trouble. She's pretty easy to trick as well, and she doesn't pick up on things fast. Subtleties are beyond her grasp, due to her inexperience in life. She's also still working with her abilities, so she's nowhere near the strength of a real legendary.

---

Name: Scorch
Type of Pokemon/Race: Flareon
Gender: Male
Age: Young. One to two years old.

Description: A fairly young flareon, pretty average. His fur is pretty thick, protective means against fiery attacks.

Personality: He is terrified of water. He'll drink it, he'll dart through rain to clean his fur, but he will not swim or go farther in then his knees. Beyond that, he's a nice guy as well, pretty friendly and easy-going. He rarely fights with another person, but he's passionate, so he can be pretty fiery in his conflict. He enjoys fighting quite a bit, loving the adrenaline and speed.

Background: Scorch can't remember a time before he lived with his trainer, spending most of his younger eevee stage with a trainer. He was part of a team that fought against the Elite Four, evolving just before the battle and was the star pokemon, the secret weapon. And he relished in it. When he was released, he was rather confused, as the other Pokemon were bitter and didn't like him for being a Trainer Pokemon. It was one such event where he caught the negative attention of several water pokemon. Tora stumbled upon the fight and chased off his attackers, and sat by him protectively while he rested. When Scorch was better, Tora offered for him to come with her, and they became fast friends.

Weaknesses: Along with a crippling fear of water, he's scared of the dark, and will light a small fire on the end of his tail so that he has a constant light. This makes him extremely noticeable in the dark, meaning hungry night predators will see it and come for him. He also loves fighting and doesn't know when to stop, he'll fight till he's on the ground, bleeding to death, and still won't regret it.

---

Name: Rip and Tear
Type of Pokemon/Race: Spectral Houndoom and Unknown
Gender: Female and Unknown (Though Rip insists Tear is male.)
Age: Ancient and Unknown (He's been around since the beginning of time is what Rip says.)

Description: Rip is one of Giratina's servants, a spectral houndoom. She has several scars on her hide, and one of her horns are chipped and broken off from some event that happened when she was alive. She has a slight shadowy aura coming off of her, and because she's a spirit, can make herself look bigger or smaller. Nobody knows what exactly Tear is.

Personality: Completely insane. Once, a kind, protective pokemon that fought for her pack, she's now a lonely, crazy, destructive houndoom. Her only friend and companion is Tear, which actually doesn't exist, he's just a result of her insanity. She'll frequently talk to him and talk for him, similar to Minsc and Boo from Baldur's Gate.

Background: Once, Rip lived with her pack in the shadow of Mt. Mortar. When her pack was attacked by a rival camp, Rip gave her life to protect her pups, and they managed to escape and survive. Because of her selflessness, her spirit was sent to the Upper World. But when Taragita was bound and she was forced to the Reverse World, the change and solitude shattered her. She fell into madness, alone without her pack, or even a friend. She created Tear, a figment of her imagination to ease her loneliness. She honestly has no idea he doesn't exist, and will speak for him, because she thinks he's too shy to say anything.

Weaknesses: Sunlight makes her weak and hurts her eyes, but she can function in the day light. She hates other houndooms, because they remind her of the ones that killed her, and she hates it when people argue that Tear isn't real. When that happens, she usually attacks them, for being so ignorant.

Okay, Arceus, even after days I STILL only have one character I'm set on, and that's the Legendary I said I'd play. UGH I SUCK SO MUCH AT THIS.

BUT. Because I'm feeling really stupidly guilty over delaying this so much.. I'll just fiddle around with Uxie until I figure out whatever else to use.



Name: Uxie
Species: Uxie
Gender: Female
Age: Ancient
Description: A, well.. Uxie! XD
Personality: Being the Being of Knowledge, Uxie is immensely knowledgeable about the world; be it myths, Pokemon or the world itself, and she never tries to hide it, usually managing to include some random trivia in conversation. She doesn't know the meaning of subtle, and is very blunt in how she talks, sometimes even appearing inconsiderate of others. She is also completely clueless on innuendos and euphemisms, taking basically everything seriously and completely missing the point. She has a poor sense of humour and has a habit of either not understanding a joke at all, or explaining a joke even if everyone already knows exactly what it means. Typically, she's fairly bold, but has a tendency to not realize danger and will get herself into bad situations due to it.
Background: Born from the same egg as her brother and sister, she took flight and gave humans knowledge and the power to solve problems. She lives in the cavern of Lake Acuity in the north of Sinnoh, seldom leaving the area and only doing so when she's absolutely needed. She holds one of the crystals that binds Taragita.
Weaknesses: She's a poor judge of situations, especially dangerous ones, meaning that she gets herself into fights she has no chance of winning. Offensively, she can't do much and mostly relies on her allies to do actually fighting. Due to seeing in aura only, she can be a bit clumsy.


OKAY I FINALLY HAVE A CHARACTER. So now.. On with the RP! Or something! XD

Name: Amilynn Diana Morgan (goes by "Ginger")
Type of Pokemon/Race: Human, a trainer. Also accompanied by her pokemon, a team of three: Finas the haunter, Perro the pidgeotto, and Jenny the ponyta, In the box she has a flareon (Hanna), a jolteon (James), a gyarados (Oliver), and her starter, Yev the typhlosion. Any of those pokemon may or may not eventually join her again, as they are simply there because she wants to protect them.
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Description: A red haired, blue eyed trainer who wants nothing more than for everything to go back to the way it was so she and her pokemon can train in peace. She's approximately five foot four and weighs in at 137lbs. She's freckled, especially at the shoulders, and generally sunburned on her cheekbones. She's pale, though she's constantly in the sun. She's one of those unfortunate people whose skin never really tans and, after burning, actually gets paler. She keeps sunscreen in her bag at all times. Her closest friend is actually her ghastly, as she had to train with him more than her other pokemon. He's usually out of his pokeball and near her.
Personality: Though she used to be an irresponsible, energetic trainer two years ago when she first began her journey, she has both mellowed out and turned into a more somber person. She constantly second guesses herself, especially when it comes to pokemon battles. She worries about her pokemon while they fight and is quick to use potions on them, whether they actually need it or not. She's still loud, almost obnoxiously so, and will talk at a person until she goes blue in the face. She doesn't ever really expect a response and is always delightfully surprised when someone actually talks with her, instead of just letting her talk at them. She lives for trainer battles, and got seven badges before quietly returning home. Though she is almost afraid to battle now, it is still something she's extremely passionate about. She also loves to paint, and can often be found doing such. She's not sure if she likes gardening or not, but has a garden she takes care of.
Background: Amilynn got to the last gym in Johto before she quit her career as a trainer and returned home. She was simply unable to beat Clair, though she and her pokemon had trained hard. They spent months challenging Clair twice a week, but eventually just couldn't do it anymore. Amilynn is still disappointed into herself for her inability to beat that final gym and go to the Elite Four. She firmly believe she is completely at fault and wished she could have been a better trainer to her pokemon. She currently has a small house back in New Bark Town, as she refuses to live with her mother. She assists Professor Elm around the lab and helps him collect his data on pokemon. She and her team still train, though it is mostly to study how different moves work. She's being sent by Elm to help those affiliated with Arceus. Her main motivation in this is to get everything back to normal. She holds a secret hope that this will help her get her training career back off the ground, give her the motivation to start again and get that last badge.
Weaknesses: Has trouble believing in herself. She also tends to cut herself off from other people which, though it was a main part of how she got started on her pokemon journey, has led to problems now that she is back in her home town. She dreams big, but won't allow herself to reach her dreams because she simply doesn't believe she could ever become the Champion. She has weak ankles. As a trainer, she tends to overlevel her pokemon but doubt herself so much that they loose anyway. She overly careful and takes too much time thinking about the outcome and her pokemon end up hurt because of it. The second things start going poorly, she gives up. Because she worries too much about her pokemon, she has issues reacting fast enough.

Name: Finas
Type of Pokemon/Race: Haunter
Gender: Male
Age: It's been two years since he was caught as a ghastly, but before that his age is unknown. He's young.
Description: He looks like every other generic haunter out there.
Personality: He's quiet and calm. He tends to stay within his own thoughts. He doesn't really talk much, even to Amilynn. He's usually out of his pokeball (though the rest of the team is not) and is used to people.
Background: Was captured at Sprout Tower. Did not participate in the battles against Clair.
Weaknesses: Type advantages, obviously. He cares too much, just like Amilynn, he's just better at hiding it. It still leads to all the same problems.

I may or may not add the other pokemon's stuff in later. I don't really expect them to be out as much...

Name: Mesprit
Type of Pokemon/Race: Mesprit
Gender: Female
Age: Ancient
Description: She looks like, well, Mesprit. XD
Personality: As the physical representation of Emotion, Mesprit's personality tends to bounce wildly from one extreme to another, depending on the situation. She's never subtle about her feelings, you'll never find her, for example, to be only a little sad or slightly happy. Unless she has reason to be upset or mad or some other emotion, Mesprit is quite happy and easy going naturally. Has a fondness for play and can be a little mischievous, although never cruel.
She loves humans and is very curious about them, almost to her own peril.
Background: One of the lake trio and a keeper of one of the three crystals that binds Taragita to the realm of shadow. She has had a history of, perhaps, being far too active in the affairs of humans than she should be.
Weaknesses: As a being completely ruled by her emotions, it doesn't take much to send Mesprit into a blind rage or a crushing depression in the middle of combat. She hates seeing others suffer and will always rush blindly in to help them however possible, regardless of whether it's a trap or not. In addition, she's a little naive when it comes to traps and trickery and never suspects the worse about any situation or anyone.

((Off-topic note, I've been spelling and saying Mesprit's name wrong since I first learned of it's existence O.o))

Uh, still need to work out my other character(s).

*Looks at the fact that she's on the list already* ...Oh Azu, you know me well <3

Characters coming soon!

Edit: First one! More to come, I'm sure.

Name: Kalina
Type of Pokemon/Race: Human trainer, mainly Fire Type pokemon
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Description: Kalina is about 5'6" so she's not exactly short, but she hasn't weighed herself in a long time, though she looks very skinny. She's fairly tanned from being outside so much and fit even though many say she's underweight. Her hair is long and black, halfway down her back and very rarely put up, though it blocks her Very light green eyes. Her bag is black and she can usually be found in a t-shirt with a flame on the back and a pair of dark shorts. Scars litter her arms and her sides, and there is one on her cheek as well.
Personality: Very kind, she's also a bit scared of most other humans. She prefers the company of pokemon most of the time. She's not so stubborn and if the need arises she will change her mind about what she's decided after some consideration. She's slow to anger but when she does she doesn't take it easy on her opponents.
Background: Growing up in Veilstone city she had a fairly normal childhood. When she was about eight she went out to play on the edge of Route 214 with her fathers Nidoking watching over her. She got out of sight of him and was attacked by a pack of Mightyena. No one is sure how she managed to escape them but she got back to the Nidoking very hurt. It took almost a year for her to recover. When she turned eleven she was given her first pokemon, the Growlithe she had grown up with. From there she was sent to Sandgem to talk to Rowan and start her journey. Since then she's grown and her team has gotten stronger, getting as may badges as she could and just enjoying her time with her pokemon.
Weaknesses: Besides her obvious love of fire types being a flaw, Kalina is also blind, though she hides it with her hair. It's not a Complete blindness, she can see blurry shapes and colours but nothing more than that.

Name: Arc
Type of Pokemon/Race: Arcanine
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Description: A normal Arcanine, he has a small scar on the tip of his nose.
Personality: Loyal, as well as stubborn, he has always been given full ability to make his own decisions, even if they go against Kalina's
Background: He was hatched the same time as Kalina was born, forging a bond between the two. He used to sleep up curled next to her so she could use him as a sort of pillow. When she was attacked he felt horrible about it and thought it was his fault. It was then that he decided he would become stronger for her. After training for several years with Kalina he pointed out a Fire Stone in a store and was evolved. He even decided to lean a move that he never would have during his training, all to better protect Kalina (Dragon Pulse.)
Weaknesses: The obvious types, don't need to put that. He'll also do anything to stop Kalina from being hurt again.

I'm such a hypocrite. I didn't think I'd end up joining this in any way, but I thought up a character. -.- And now I really like this character.

Name: Sorrel Cass
Type of Pokemon/Race: Human Trainer
Gender: Female
Age: 22

Description: A plain, pale woman with straight brown hair and hazel eyes. She's roughly 5'8'' and stands with a bit of a hunch, her eyes sunken and her hair mussed. She looks tired, nervous and depressed.

Personality: Typically a kind woman, with a healthy, if grim, sense of humor. She's quite independent and has strong opinions, ready to argue for hours until the other side agrees with her. Despite her stubborn streak, she dislikes it when other people are similarly bull headed. She hasn't quite grown up yet and still has fun goofing around and joking, though her recent state of semi-depression has killed her childlike demeanor. She now seems fearful and withdrawn, searching endlessly for the Hunter named Claymore.

Background: Raised by a pair of Pokemon trainers, she learned her trade from them. While she was learning her mother "gifted" her with a massive Onix, which was officially named Claymore. Sorrel, being young at the time, instead called him simply Bubbles. Under Claymore's constant guard, she searched in vain for a Pokemon that matched her personality, growing closer and closer to the Onix as time went on. On her twelfth birthday her mother gave her Claymore's Pokeball, and the two bonded immediately.
The Onix, unfortunately, was getting old. It had been her mother's first Pokemon, and by the time Sorrel was twenty, the Pokemon was too old and weak to fight. He still tried, though, and ended up dying while trying to protect Sorrel from a Golduck. Sorrel mourned bitterly for the loss. She was so crushed that her mother tried to comfort her by giving her a freshly evolved and trained Infernape, but the girl saw the pokemon as a mocking reminder of her friend's death and hated him. Now that she's heard of the possibility of either getting Claymore back or at least giving him a better place to live out his afterlife, she will do anything to help him.

Weaknesses: She's easy to manipulate through memories of Claymore, and she's very emotional. Her stubbornness can also be a downfall as it gets her into risky situations. She also hates her Infernape enough to not use his skills well, and he's forced to do most of the work in a fight himself.


Name: Largo
Type of Pokemon/Race: Infernape
Gender: Male
Age: Middle Aged

Description: Well, an Infernape.

Personality: Largo has a tough life. He really does care about Sorrel and will do anything to protect her, but her constant ignorance of all he does for her and her apparent obsession with Claymore has driven him to jealousy. He secretly tries to lead her away from anything that will bring back Claymore, if only because he wishes she'd pay attention to him. With other Pokemon he's laid back and ready to joke around, and hides the fact that he's very lonely.

Background: He was caught and trained by Sorrel's mother, then given to the girl as a replacement for Claymore.

Weaknesses: Without the typical guidance of a trainer, he's a bit unsure of what he's supposed to be doing in a fight. He's used to having all his moves planned out for him, so he's hesitant in a fight.

And lastly...

Name: "Bubbles" Claymore
Type of Pokemon/Race: Spectral Onix
Gender: Male
Age: Old/dead

Description: A large Onix, even compared to the normal. The rocks making up his body are mostly smooth, though several are nicked and grooved from fights.

Personality: A quiet, benevolent sort. He does what he's told and can be very calm and passive, though any threat is met with full ferocity. The Hunter insanity has gotten to him lately, and he greets anything that isn't a Hunter with incredible amounts of rage, ready to tear the intruder to shreds. He mostly ignores other Hunters, though he can't resist following the weak to protect them or helping those Hunters in need.

Background: Sorrel's mother's first Pokemon, passed on to Sorrel. He grew old and died in a fight with a Golduck and spent two years in Giratina's realm. He's now grown restless and yearns for a better place, be it life or a heaven-like place for his spirit to rest.

Weaknesses: Besides his numerous type weaknesses, he's also needlessly aggressive. His tendency to leap into fights to protect weaker Hunters can get him into trouble, as he doesn't judge the type of his enemy before attacking.

Woo. That's a lot of writing. Hopefully these characters work.

Heh. I'm psychic, Kira! (Not really, you had said at one point you wanted to give it a try.)

Also. AHMYGOSH. LUPIS. Yay! Yay! Yay! I love your characters! And you have another Hunter! Rip needs friends.

And Moon: Ack, I know the feeling. I just realized I've been doin' it wrong too.

Ruby: Take your time.

EDIT: Several spelling errors, new rule added. (Seriously, how many times can I misspell Taragita? Seriously? And Mesprit. Curse you!)

Name: Phalah
Type of Pokemon/Race: Froslass
Gender: female
Age: a fairly young ghost, but has the mind of an older pokemon
Description: A regular sized froslass, with frosted ice 'horns' and a oddily brown furred bow around her waist. The deep marks on her face resembles those to a Mamoswines. ((I'll draw a reference soon, hopefully))
Personality: Mostly shy and tried to be tender and loving but fails due to a short fused temper. Her rage doesn't last long however once started and she immdeatly feels guilty afterwards however and will do almost anything as an apology to her victim. If she gets to angry her froslass cruelty kicks in. ((The pokedex entry says they freeze their victums and keep their bodies in blocks of ice as throphys))
Background: She is actually the loving caring side of a deceased Mamoswine. Hence the oddly dark furred bow and the Mamoswine mask, the Mamoswine lost part of its personalty after staying in the reverse world too long, Due to this she isn't like other froslasses that evolve from snorunts, most of the time at least.
Weakness: Due to being being from another pokemons ghost she retain old memories of someone else which when reminded scares the shit out o her, her caring personality also tends to to be a weakness as well as her short fused anger. Speices weaknesses apply

Name: Apack
Type of Pokemon/Race: Specter Mamoswine
Gender: Female
Age: deceased
Description: A muscular built Mamoswine with chipped tusks, scars rake under her thick fur.
Personality: When living she used to be motherly and caring, however being a mamoswine she was short fused and easily angered, though after her death, giratinas realm got the best of her and over the many years there her personality was easily lost, splitting from her own soul. She now is dark and is not afriad to kill or do bad things. She also became a hunter due to this
Background: She was born in ancient times, and had many battles. One day she eventually fell in love and had kids, but when the ice began melting, she was one of the many that perished. She lived thousands of years in giratinas realm, no longer caring for her previous life.
Weakness: Her strength can be used against her, as well as her dark personalty and her weaknesses, She'll do anything to wreck some sort of havoc, because she doesn't really care anymore. Species weaknesses apply


alright I got enough time out of studying to make a form for a few of my characters

Name: Vert
Type of Pokemon/Race: Stunky
Gender: Male
Age: in his teens, or hes just a very immature young adult, i haven't decided yet
Description: A bright blue eye'd stunky, he wears a bandanna as a hat and wears an eyepatch because he has no eye behind it anyhow
Personality: Highly proud of his many victories, hes normally energetic but likes lieing and stealing. He tends to tell false tales of himself, to become popular. He acts brave but tends to run away like a coward against enemys
Background: He refuses to reveal it only to his most important of friends. He actually was once a 'pet' for a kid that lived on a boat, yes a pirate, and despite being in sinnoh it was in the middle of hoenn, the ship sank however after kyogrue was accidently reawaked in one of the wars, He was inside his pokeball however at the time and manged to safely float to land. He then gained a new trainer, this trainer tried to train him, but failed and instead traveled to sinnoh and used him in the tough contests there. He always seemed to be lucky at winning, one of the contestants he faced however was enraged at losing and shot his trainer, leaving him alone again. He ran off this time, not having any experience in battle he met a hostile pokemon in the wild and lost an eye. He ran away afterwards, fainting due to the overwhelming pain he felt.
He was taken in by an old lonely widow who nursed him back to health, and gave him the bandanna and eyepatch. He lived with her for many years, but sense she was old enough she had to pass away, he now travels around stealing and lieing to try and make friends with some hopefully other pokemon that had bad pasts
Weaknesses: He has almost no experience in fighting and mostly just uses natural abilitys for his survivals. You could also exploit his bad past and use it against him
