I would most certainly be okay with that, though since Ghost and mine idea has become so popular, we now have too many pokemon to be played in one team. A total of 8 interested of fully dedicated pokemon players, and two trainers.

Ghost and I have already started, and there are enough pokemon for some of them to join Alexander's team. I haven't spoken to him about this yet, though I guess this is as good a place to start as any.

For any pokemon planned to go on my team, feel free to consider switching over to Alexander. Read his On and Offs if you haven't, and ask him about the kind of trainer he wants to play. It is a likely possibility that his and my trainers will travel together after they've found each other. And rivalries not only between the trainers but also the pokemon could well become a large factor of drama and interesting scenes in the RP.

For you Shihong, who has accepted my offer to play as Semi-GM, providing us with interesting scenarios and people as well as pokemon to meet (not capture) though not the final ruler on what takes place, it would be smart to decide whether or not it would be a good idea to join Alexander's team instead of mine. Seeing as there might be more pokemon needed there, for now. It is still your choice, and I doubt Alexander would be offended if you did want to stick to the original plan.

I hope everyone can find themselves in these plans, and feel free to PM me for advice or additional ideas. This is after all a group RP.

Perhaps that would work a bit better, if his team doesn't get many other applicants...

However, as this seems rather important...who is Alexander?  I suddenly noticed this second team added to the first post, but no explanation.  There's just a blank spot next to that trainer's name, so I have no idea whose On and Offs I should be looking at.

Karmatrik is correct, Alexander hasn't made a profile yet, though now that he knows there will be pokemon to go on his team I doubt he will take a long time in getting it up.

As for Alexander, I don't have his information yet, considering he hasn't posted a character bio sheet like everyone else has. So until he does that, we won't have the needed info for everyone else to look at. The blank spot next to his name is left because that will be his quick description, such as Max's, and his character's name isn't up yet because, again, we don't have it. The name, Alexander, is his user name, and you should use that to go check out his O/O's and talk to him if you are to be on his team.

I hope this clears things up for everyone. And I'll be sure to talk to Alexander about getting his information up as soon as I possibly can, especially now that the roleplay and everything is taking off and we're getting more interested people. So don't fret everyone. Super Ghost is here to save the day. xD

Also, for everyone in the roleplay, if I could ask. Please go read my A/A thread. It's important and will affect you all. It explains a few things that everyone needs to know.

Thanks! And once again, for anyone interested.... Don't hesitate to speak up! We need more players! =P

So sorry for having everyone waiting on me. And here, as ghost as brought to my attention, is My profile.

Name: Daren Mason 
Age: 28
Height: 6'0
Sex: Male

Likes: Winning, Taking care of his Pokemon
Never backing down,
Cooking.

Dislikes: Cynicism, Control freaks, cold weather,
Failing when it counts, Lazy people, dishonesty.

Appearance:


History/Personality: Daren has always known life through hardship. Working hard just to get by day after day, but he took to the lifestyle easily, head on. He loved the feeling of working hard, and being rewarded by his efforts in a degree that no amount of praise or payment could bring. Since he was a child, he was around Pokemon, even now to this day, he adores them. His father runs a clinic especially for them, and For the longest Daren worked there, helping the sick and Injured Pokemon get better, and back to their trainers or into the wild. Since he was a kid, he wanted to train them, and have Pokemon of his own, though life has left very few windows for that to happen, he studied them, and learned all he could until the day would swing around for him to get to put his studies to the test. Now that window was open for him, and he was ready to seize the opportunity. He hated people that got off of life easy, never knew an honest days work and the rewarding feeling it brought. Even now he lives off of little, moving from place to place, camping wherever he felt comfortable, looking for his next big break. He is a stern man, but kindhearted, even when he can appear cold. Never one to quit anything, he would appear obsessive at times, but never to any but minor faults.

Nice! And thanks for posting this for us, finally. =P
Not to generalize, but I think we all appreciate it. ^^

Also!!

Gah, I'm so forgetful....

When joining this group, we need for the new people to make sure and let us know what team they will be on. That way we know how many players we have and which team is full.
Okies? Cha. =3
It is very wise, yeah? =P

It's been decided by Max and I that I'll at least be a loner, and probably be on Alex's team. Max's team is kinda full. :P

I took a look at Alexander's Ons/Offs page and would very much like to add Abby to his team. Some fun possibilities there.

A reminder to everyone...

Be sure to check the list of people who've joined us and look for other additional changes at the beginning of the thread, on a regular basis. It all changes quite a bit and I don't bother to mark the edits that are made.

Just a heads-up. =P

My team is kind of full indeed, though now there's still some room left for those people who prefer a very demanding trainer over Alexander's trainer.

On another note, Alexander and I have discussed starting a new thread for the second team and both agreed that it would prevent a lot of confusion and cluttering of posts. Keep in mind though, that the two threads are very much in the same universe, and that as soon as the trainers meet, posting should end up all in the same thread, whichever tread seems more appropriate.

If anyone is against this, and has a good reason, feel free to comment. And for possible better ideas, the same goes as usual.

Greetings,

Everyone who has read Ghost Requiem's A/A would know that she is unable to play for a while. This is a great shame, not just because of the problematic reasons she has but also for our roleplay. Her absence makes it hard, nay, impossible to progress in a neat and orderly fashion.

So, I propose we hold a vote. We could wait for her, weeks, months, years, an indefinite time, and continue the RP when she returns. A most risky and time-consuming choice, since many people will give up and leave before she returns, because she might well not return at all.

The second option is to install a time-skip. Leaving Umbre at a daycare either for a strange disease that takes time and can only be healed from inside her pokéball. Or some place where she is needed, perhaps back at Adrian's home. Many of these reasons will sound odd, off, strange, far-fetched. And they are, because they are here to explain an absence which would not only be illogical, though also devastating for the normal course of the RP.

If there is anyone who has a better option, or an idea for option two that would not break up the normal flow as drastic as the ones I made up in the last few seconds, be sure to tell us.

Those that will play with Alexander, need not worry about this. Their RP would start on their own, and this does not affect them. Seeing that, it might well be wise to switch to Alexander's team if you do not have a preference.

There is also the option of me starting a new team as well, with those who want to be my pokemon, and let the start of this RP change into a one on one RP between me and Ghost. This is an option that I have thought about for a while, though if she does eventually return, it would be a shame not to have her in the group.

Speak up, give your voice, let us, mostly me, know how you think we should solve this. Perhaps together we can find the least destructive way.

I find that pausing a group roleplay for too long (or waiting far too long to actually start it) generally leads to a total collapse of the scenario.  Either people lose interest, other things come up, or a whole host of other things that could end up making the whole thing die off.  As it is, it's been quite awhile and we still haven't reached the roleplay proper, IE: where everyone is actually involved.  Though I'm loath to say it, it would be for the best if we did some sort of timeskip so that others could finally participate.

As for why Umbre would be missing, off the top of my head: perhaps this could serve as yet another form of torture.  Assuming a time skip has indeed occurred, she would have been thoroughly broken in and dependent on Adrian for both pain and pleasure.  Leaving her back at home in someone else's care would be a rather cruel thing to do so soon after bending her to his will, but I don't see it as being -entirely- out of character.

In the end, I feel it would be best if we're fair to everyone.  Though Ghost and you started this, it is a group roleplay.  I know I'm already starting to get spread a bit thin.  It's not important that the narrative remain completely realistic and logical, because that's not the point.  The point is for everyone to have an entertaining time together in an interesting setting.  It may have actually been a bit better if this part of the roleplay had been completed before asking for people to join in, but that's besides the point.

Just my two cents!  I'm still very much interested in participating, whenever I get the chance to.

Maximillian Crowloft

After discussing this some more with Ghost privately, she has asked for us to be patient, even though that may be hard. Yes, Shihong, you are right, it might have been wiser for us to have this part behind us before asking others to join in. Though we started this idea as a group RP, and offered everyone a chance to join, never promising them they could do so right away. I do not expect all of the ones who have applied to stay, and as a matter of fact some have left already.

Those, however, that do wish to stay and roleplay as a pokemon in my team of anthropomorphic pokemon, are asked to be patient for a week, possibly two. So that Ghost can get all her worries behind her, she might just return better than ever.

If it is too much to ask, and if you really can not hold back until that time. You could always ask for a private RP. It is a possibility, and need not last a long time. Perhaps just meant, only, to pass the time.

So now, those options I discussed, are based on a longer timespan. If Ghost can not resolve her issues involving E, we do need a backup plan.

I just wanted to say to everyone who is, or has been, interested in this roleplay.

I'm really sorry that it's taking so long and for keeping everybody waiting. It really is making me feel bad, and I do realize that maybe Max and myself should have waited until we got the start of the roleplaying before inviting others to it. I suppose it will be a lesson learned to have in mind for future reference.

I will be keeping everyone notified of any changes or updates with my situation, though I am more than determined to get things back to normal so I can return as quickly as possible. As Max said, all I'm asking for is everyone to try and be patient with me. Please understand that I didn't mean for things to happen as they have, and I really do want to continue this roleplay and remain involved with it.

Anyhow, I just wanted everyone to know this and that I understand should anyone leave the roleplay.

   Sincerely,
       Ghost
