Legendary Reawakening
Children’s tales. Tales of magic and wonder, told by parents to their children throughout the generations. Of all the stories told, the ones about the Legendary Pokémon have always been the most popular with children of all ages.
We have all heard from bedtime stories about the Legendary Pokémon, the magnificent creatures whom are said to protect and defend the Earth. As we grew, however, we came to learn and understand that these beats were Legend, nothing more, nothing less. We grew to know that even if such wonderful monsters ever existed, they have abandoned us long ago. One tale did tell us just that.
At the beginning of time, the Legendary Pokémon were the first to walk upon the Earth. After them, all the other Pokémon were created, and then the humans, perhaps created by the Legends themselves. The Legendaries watched over the people and Pokémon, who lived together in harmony. Because of this, the mighty beasts felt that they were no longer needed in this Utopia of a world, and they all separated and went into a deep sleep, only to be woken if the human and Pokémon’s way of life was disrupted.
That way of life may be coming to an end.
Greed and arrogance spreads like a plague throughout the land, slowly consuming those too weak minded to fight it off. But that is only part of the trouble.
Team Rocket, a notorious group of villains, have become much too ambitious, and are now interested solely in ruling over the world. Their means of doing this are strange; they wish to call upon creatures of Darkness to assist them in reaching their goals. From the remains of an ancient city, they brought back from a long archeological trip (not the same trip when the Mew fossil was found-this is many years after that) a huge stone tablet. This tablet not only depicts a time when these monsters will be brought into the world, but also how to call upon them, bringing them to our plain. The Rockets believe that they can not only bring the power of these Pokémon from the Dark Realm in which they sleep, but that they have the technology to control them.
These Pokémon? The Dark Essences of the Legendaries themselves!
Another children’s tale speaks of this too.
People and Pokémon lived in peace for many years, and the Legendaries watched over them lovingly. Though somehow, the Legendaries did have a Dark Side, a state of mind really, one that could threaten to overrun their Good Side at any time, control their bodies. When the Legendaries learned of this, they became fearful, and together used a special form of magic known only to creatures of such power and holiness to remove the Evil within themselves. However, they did not realize that in doing so, their Dark Sides were able to create bodies for themselves, so that each Legendary had a Dark counterpart. The Legendaries noticed their flaw when it was too late, and the Dark Essences had already taken form. A great battle between the Legendaries started then, taking place within a city that had a mighty Shrine to the Legends, the city of Kalanosses, located deep within the Nularm jungle. The winners, however, were never truly decided: the good Legendaries, in their panic of harming the citizens of Kalanosses, used their combined powers to trap their Dark counterparts by creating a Realm in which to lock the Evil beasts away. They were successful, though they left the once beautiful city in ruins, leaving hundreds dead, with bodies strewn about the streets.
It was many years after this that the Legendaries decided that they were no longer needed and fell into their millennia long slumber, however before this, they were said to have made an announcement to the entire world.
They told of their Dark counterparts being trapped in the Realm of Darkness, and they should never return. However, if such a thing ever happened, then it would take both the power of the Legendaries and Humans to wipe the Dark monsters off the face of the planet for good. Human heart and Legendary power would work together, and only as one would they be able to save the world from falling into the dark grips of the Evil Legendaries…
Now, this takes place when, as mentioned, Team Rocket has obtained the Binding Tablet, an object that was created after the Dark Legendaries were sealed away. These Legendaries somehow were able to reach into our world and create this Tablet, waiting for any ambitious human to stumble upon it. Made of a stone the color of midnight when no stars shine, the Binding Tablet stands at about eight feet tall and a little over four feet wide, the spidery runes and pictures carved upon its shiny surface in an almost professional manner. It waited in the ruins of Kalanosses, in what was once a Shrine to the Legendaries. As long as it was within the Temple, the structure had stayed intact, and not the smallest layer of dust covered its dark surface, not a pebble tumbled from the ceiling onto it.
Now that Rocket knows how to unleash the Dark Legendaries, the true Legendaries are beginning to stir in their slumber, and are half consciously binding themselves to the humans that will help them destroy the dark Legendaries, if/when they do make it out of their Dark Realm.
You are those humans.
Well, there’s you plot right there, folks. This is my first try at running an RPG, so everyone will have to bare with me.
Now, you’ll have to fill in the following form:
Name: (Your first name alone is sufficient, add a last if it makes you happy.)
Age: (Please, I don’t want you to be 10. That’s a bit young to save the world. Your character must be 15 to 23.)
Gender: (self explanatory)
Physical Description: (Your character’s looks: hair, eyes, skin, build, height and weight [not the precise height and weight, just general/average] and clothing.)
Personality: (Keep it real please; make sure you have both strengths and weaknesses, and the ‘Loves being number one and hates losing’ is really old, not to mention rather cliché.)
General History: (Just about your character. This should be about three paragraphs long. I don’t mind if you are/were a Pokémon Trainer [NOT Master/’Battle Frontier Champion’ or anything of the sort], but then the use of other Pokémon in this RPG is prohibited, so you’ll have to have dropped off your Pokémon in your PC, at home, with a Professor, etc.)
Affiliated Legendary: (The Legendary whom you are connected to and will be traveling with. Does not have to be Uber.)
Legendary History: (How you met your Legendary. This should be at least three or four paragraphs long, but it must be believable, and if you were formally a Trainer you could not have used your Legendary in Battles. How you met your legendary is up to you, but it must make sense. How you interact depends on your personality and that of your Legendary.)
Legendary’s Personality: (Please make sure that they’re OC and have similar, if not the same personality that they had in a game/episode/movie. Keep in mind that their personality will be similar to their human partner’s; one of the reasons the human was chosen. SIDE NOTE: I suggest you give your Legendary a gender, as calling them all ‘it’ will be rather annoying, except for the Regis.)
Current Location: (Where you are now, when the RP starts. Flying over some town, swimming in some ocean, whatever. Also, please add what you are doing there. Also, you must be in the region your Legendary comes from [ie Mew from Kanto, Celebi from Jhoto, etc.] however if I’m provided with a proper explanation, a Hoenn Legendary may be in another region.)
Other: (If it doesn’t fit in another category, put it here.)
For example, I am doing my character to give you a general understanding of what you need to do.
Name: Kaylie
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Physical Description: Light blond hair reaches her slender waist, falling about it in gentle waves. Her pale-skinned face is smooth, her features soft, complimenting her bright blue eyes. She’s tall for her age, and slim-not exceptionally skinny, but lean and well-defined. Slender, but not delicate, she is not exceptionally strong, but her muscles are nicely toned and proportional. Kaylie will usually be wearing a pair of dark blue jeans that hug her upper legs with large flairs at the bottom, and a violet, formfitting low neck t-shirt.
Personality: She is quite emotional and sympathetic, however her emotions sometimes stop her from seeing the big picture. Because of her sorrowful upbringings, she knows that the world really isn’t all fun and games, though she enjoys a good time either way. Over time she is learning to open up to the world. Kaylie is the kind of girl who will often ‘stop and smell the roses’. She does not usually jump to conclusions and takes her time in making decisions. This also makes her a good judge of character.
General History: Growing up in Lavender Town, she was often exposed to a great deal of sadness, seeing all those Trainers come to the Tower and mourn over their lost friends. This was always difficult for her, and she often went to the Tower to try to comfort the mourning Trainers, feeling guilty when she didn’t yet lost and helpless when she did.
One day, however, she finally had enough; she was thirteen and old enough to start traveling on her own, though she never really became a Trainer, nor did she ever plan a destination. She merely left her home and started traveling, not quite sure why-she just needed to get out.
In her travels Kaylie found and befriended an abandoned, undersized Altaria just outside the huge Saffron City early in her journey. She had approached the creature carefully, and seeing the lash marks on his back, became worried instantly, taking it to the Pokémon Center in Saffron. Once healed, Altaria decided to travel the countryside with his savior. They did so for two and a half years, becoming best of friends in the process.
One day, when she and Alatria were walking to Fuchsia City, they were surprised to find a wild Nidorino, mouth foaming, blocking their path. Every time they had tried getting around the spiked purple creature, it had only jumped in front of them, stopping them from going any further. Then out of nowhere it had jumped at Kaylie, aiming its horn for her stomach, but Altaria was quick to protect his friend. The Nidorino rammed him, stabbing the bird Pokémon with the horn atop its head and injecting him with a deadly poison.
They never made it to the Pokémon Center in time.
Affiliated Legendary: Mew
Legendary History: After the death of her beloved friend, Kaylie wandered about Kanto aimlessly. Her heart was broken, her soul shattered.
It was a month after Altaria had passed, and it was just past noon. The sky was just beginning to clear after a heavy rainfall that morning, so the ground was still moist and some gray clouds still hung in the air. The weather didn’t do anything to brighten Kaylie’s mood as she trudged along the beach just South of Fuchsia City, where there was not a human in sight.
She looked up to the heavens for guidance, hoping that maybe her friend was watching from above the heavy clouds. She could almost imagine seeing the blue bird floating on its fluffy wings through the clouds.
Then she saw something unexpected; a small, pink sparkle, just coming out of a cloud off to her right! Kaylie’s eyes widened and after a sharp intake of breath, and she was off, trying to run to the spot right under the mysterious shine, sand flying beneath her sandals. Not sure why she was chasing after it, except that she felt it was the right thing to do, Kaylie kept her gaze focused on the tiny pink shimmer, which began to swoop and dive at random in the air, though it was not in any way Kaylie had ever seen before: no winged creature could move like that.
Kaylie slowed and came to a stop just about under the sparkle. At this, it halted its wild aerial acrobatics, still sparkling brightly. Then it came down, down, down! Kaylie’s bright blue eyes watched curiously, heart pounding as it descended from the clouds. She was soon able to make out its shape-it was small, with two tiny hands and large oval feet. Its ears were tiny stubs atop the round face. Trailing behind it was a long, thin tail that ended in an oval.
Finally it halted its descent to float at eye level with Kaylie. Yes, it was tiny, perhaps a foot tall. Suddenly the shine faded, so that she could see the details of the creature’s soft pink fur and stare into its brilliant sapphire eyes.
For one frozen moment in time, the two stared at each other, then the pink creature broke the silence. “Mew?” it asked, though not by opening its tiny mouth; Kaylie could hear it in her head! The creature then began to fly around her, inspecting the young girl carefully. “Mew!” It then cried, smiling happily, throwing itself at the unsuspecting Kaylie, who was knocked off her feet to land in the sand, with the cat-like creature right on top of her.
“Wha…” she began, then noticed that twin tears were falling from her eyes. She grinned. “Hello to you too,” she said, running her hand through the creature’s light, silky pink fur, making it purr softly in delight. “Mew.”
Later that day, the human and Pokémon sat on the sandy beach, Kaylie making little designs in the drying sand with her finger. “So, what brings you here, little one?” she suddenly asked in a quiet whisper, not sure why-she didn’t really expect an answer.
The Legendary cocked her head and gave Kaylie an innocent, inquisitive look.
I wonder…can Mew understand me? She wondered, smiling fondly at the cat-like creature.
‘Why, I can understand you!’ a soft, feminine purr of a voice replied, but Kaylie heard it in her head! Kaylie looked at Mew with wide eyes, and Mew looked back with a slightly indignant look.
“You…” Kaylie said in a shaky voice, unable to continue.
Mew giggled. ‘Do not be afraid; I communicate through telepathy, like all Psychic creatures.’
Kaylie gaped for a moment as she digested this. Mew gazed at the girl with her pretty azure eyes patiently. She then got up from her sitting position, floating over gracefully to sit on Kaylie’s head, long, whip-like tail falling onto her back, swaying back and forth in a massaging motion. “So…why are you here?” she finally asked, looking up at the creature atop her head.
‘I am not sure myself. I awoke from my deep slumber with a feeling deep inside me. It was a strange feeling, a tugging, and I knew there was something I needed to do. Or someone I needed to see.’ Mew purred in her mind. ‘I searched for this someone, knowing whoever it was was out there somewhere. When I found you, I knew you were the someone I was looking for.’
Kaylie nodded wordlessly. “And you have no idea why?”
‘I’m not sure why I am here and why I have woken, but I feel that it is something important. I am here for a reason, though why I am with you I am not sure. There is something special about you, that is for certain. But why…I…I can not remember…everything is so fuzzy…so long ago…’ Mew’s train of thought trailed off, and her tail stopped moving about her back. Kaylie realized that Mew had fallen asleep!
Not sure what to do, Kaylie gently picked Mew up around her warm little body and took her off her head, creating a little cradle with her arms to hold the Legendary. The girl looked off into the distance- the ocean, stretching as far as the eye could see, was calm and peaceful, and Kaylie wondered how her life would be changed after the arrival of the Legendary Pokémon, Mew.
Legendary’s Personality: Mew has a very light, carefree personality, though she knows when it’s time to be serious. She’s soft and gentle, and even sort of fuzzy, one might say. Mew seems to have a serene, graceful air about her, so that merely being in the Legendary’s presence makes one feel calm and peaceful.
Current Location: Just North of Saffron City. Kaylie is helping Mew practice its techniques, which it has not used in a very long time.
Other: Mew is still trying to get a hang of the Transform technique, which it just can not seem to master properly.
A few notes:
As I said, this takes place a long time after Ash Ketchum traveled the countryside. Now his grandchildren are probably sitting in some golden age retirement home playing Bingo.
If you are wondering why the Legendaries sometimes were not asleep (like when Ash met them oh-so-many times) then I have an explanation for you. Sometimes, the Legendaries would wake up, and appear if they sensed trouble. They would do what needed to be done, then they would go back to sleep.
Team Rocket has a new leader, one even more power-hungry than Giovanni. This man’s name is also Giovanni, probably a descendant of the former leader. This new Giovanni has made Team Rocket into less of a thieving organization and more bent on ruling the world and shaping it to their desires.
Giovanni is a cruel dictator, and has made Team Rocket even more widespread-there are more members both live and spy in all four regions. Rocket has become so huge that sacrificing a few dozen members is no less difficult than blinking. He has no tolerance for incompetence, and will kill any member that is not meeting his standards or he just doesn’t trust.
There are five Rockets with extremely high statuses, like Administrators, who are the closest to Giovanni. They are the grand overseers, right under Giovanni. They are the ones who always report to him and send messages from him to the lower members. Through them, he always knows exactly what is going on within his ranks. He never misses a thing, and these loyal members never leave out a detail of what is going on. The lower members usually refer to these Administrators as the ‘Missiles’, the second in command, the deliverers of news.
The tale of Mewtwo’s creation has been lost (not only because Mewtwo wiped their memories). No Rocket member knows what that locked room full of dusty mechanical hands and blank computer monitors was used for. It is a mystery, and shall remain a mystery.
Speaking of Mewtwo, I am sure that the question of ‘is Mewtwo a Legendary’ has crossed your mind. No, Mewtwo did not exist at the beginning of time in which the Legendaries ruled. He was created by humans a long time after this. So, does Mewtwo count as a Legendary in this RPG? The answer is ‘yes’. As you know, Mew is a Legendary. Does Mewtwo not contain the DNA of Mew? Does that not count as being a Legendary, perhaps not directly, but still being a Legendary?
So then, I believe that when Mewtwo was ‘born’, Mwtwo’s Dark counterpart was born too, but it was born right into the Dark Realm in which the other Evil creatures are sealed away. Perhaps not all of Mewtwo’s Evil was sealed away immediately, but the rest was when Ash helped Mewtwo open his eyes to the world.
I am also fully aware that Latios died in the fifth movie. He is still a useable Legendary, though. Legendaries are immortal, because they’re god-like (hence them having stayed alive since the near dawn of time) and so even if one’s body is destroyed, their living energy -their soul- still remains. However, the soul only receives a body when the Legendary is needed again. So, because of what is transpiring, Latios is being called forth to return to the world. (Latios’ bodiless soul was also sort of asleep, and it floated around in nothingness, so the last thing he would remember was dieing.)
Now you are with your Legendary, probably roaming the countryside. The RPG has yet to begin, meaning that neither you nor your Legendary know why you are together. Your Legendary has yet to sense the Evil that is stirring, therefore it does not know why it has awakened, only that you two are somehow connected. Your Legendary feels obligated to be with you, and it feels as though you are connected, though it is not sure why. Please keep this in mind when filling out your Sigh Up.
Another general note is the way your Legendary communicates with you. The way it works is this:
-All Legendaries can sent you telepathic messages- these thoughts, feelings and emotions of your Legendary can be sent to you and only you. You can not do this back (at least, not at this point in the RP). All Legendaries communicate through thoughts like this to each other.
-Only Psychic Legendaries can send telepathic messages to anyone it chooses, as well as read the mind of anyone it wants to, meaning that the human and Psychic Legendary may communicate through thoughts.
-Only non-Psychic Legendaries can use their voices to communicate. So if it isn’t partly Psychic, it can communicate verbally. Psychic Legendaries can only use their voices for their battle cries (calling their name).
Please remember that it is possible that not everybody will be accepted: this will be because either I find you may not be skilled enough and may not add to the RPG, or your sheet is not valid. If I decide that a certain aspect of your character is inappropriate, then I will ask you to change it. If either of your Histories are not long enough or well written, I will ask you to rewrite them. Like I said, I may or may not accept everybody, so if you don’t get in, live with it.
When this starts, I will PM you all, but please do not bug me and constantly ask me when I will start: it will begin when it begins.
That’s right, everyone; I’m finally restarting Legendary Reawakening! I know we never got started last time, even though we finished Sign Ups and everything, but this time, things will be different.
I have PMed everyone from the original RPG, and everyone except for O’Malley will be rejoining. You are allowed to use the same Sign Up as before or you can make a totally new character (as long as the Legendary you want is free). The link for the old sign up thread is right here- Legendary Reawakening if you want to use your old sign up. Of course, anyone who wasn’t in it last time is still free to Sign Up, and I may accept LSUs later on.
