::Sign-ups Open::
I've been asked by a number of people to bring this RP back so I am doing so. Hopefully this time I'll recieve the needed amount of quality sign-ups to start this. I will not be posting the opposite half of the quest just yet, I'll save that for if this gets off the ground first. It should also be noted that if it does not succeed this time, I have no intention of posting it again. I'll also take this area to adress a few issues from last time; no one starts with the sword they choose, nor do they start on the hidden island nation. This is taking place in modern pokemon times, so while you can have training, make sure it fits in with the poke'verse. No fuedal styled towns (unless you have a good reason), strict/traditional households and such would be just as effective. I would also prefer to not have any blatant rip-offs of Wild Arms 2, or any other game for that matter, when it comes to character creation. I am looking for characters you have all personally toiled over. If you have ideas that contradict with any of these rules, please PM me so we may discuss them. I am not unreasonable and would welcome anything that anyone feels may enhance the quality of this RP.

-History-
Within this world of pokemon exists a large island continent long forgotten by the rest of civilization. On this island exists the eight tribes of nature (Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, Ice, Lightning, War, and Peace), governed by the three Dragon Gods (Tiamat, Leviathan, and Bahamut) and the five High Legendaries and their generals (Lugia, Latias, Latios, Ho-oh, and Rayquaza), and protected through the trinities of heaven (Mew, Celebi, Jirachi) and earth (Regice, Regirock, Registeel).
Through this setup life on the island prospered, but the dragons and legendaries became restless of staying in one place and gave the humans living on the island a task. They were to forge eight swords to maintain the harmony of the island and each tribe was to decide on a successor to each sword. Many swords were forged during this time but all were rejected. From this, blame started to be passed around the tribes, and skirmishes broke out. Most of them ended peacefully enough until one smith from the tribe of war murdered a woman from the tribe of peace in a heated argument. The blood stained sword interested the smith as did his feelings of malice and he began to forge all of that into a new sword. Consequently, the woman he killed was the cherished younger sister of a metal worker in the village of peace. Filled with despair for being unable to protect her, he began to work on a tribute to her, and before he realized what he had created, a sword lay before him. The two swords became the Masamune and the Murasame. The other tribes soon followed with their swords, and though none of them were quite as powerful as the Masamune and Murasame, they served their purpose. With the eight swords of Masa in place, the legendaries and dragons spoke to the people once more to tell them the true purpose of their presence at the island and the two trinities of heaven and earth along with the history of the planet.
Before the time of legendaries, there was another age, the age of gods (the three Dragon Gods were a remnant of that age). During this time humanity was even more prosperous than now. However one great nation within the world decided it wanted more. It developed devices capable of calling down heavenly objects such as meteors. One day a meteor was brought to earth that contained the dormant genetic information for the pokemon species. Through the technology developed in that nation, they sped up the evolution process on these organisms and soon had two sentient begins they could control. One was the pokemon known as Clefairy, and the other was Ditto. These two new beings seemed to quell the nation as they did further experiments. Things went back to being peaceful for centuries after that and it seemed that this quest for more had come to a stop much to the gods relief, however this was not so. Soon things got out of hand and experiments and special breeding was being done with the pokemon. Experiments also went underway to make the nation a self-aware being. This was accomplished with relative ease through the bounds their already dangerous technology had taken and soon an artificial being that was the nation itself came into existence. Through its span of knowledge the nation informed its creators that the next step for more, lie in overthrowing and destroying the gods and the war of men and gods began.
The war raged for decades and everything seemed at a stalemate but the gods were weakening. At this point many of the surviving gods used their power to ignite the sparks of life and resilience in a number of unique genetic structures of the many pokemon of the world and with the last of their beings called forth the first apocalypse; leveling the world and all species, but without destroying it. The nation appeared to be defeated as well and soon a new age began and life started anew. The three gods that were left went into solitude and were content on observing life. However the nation was not destroyed, only weakened, and through the ages it began to rebuild itself, still intent on destroying the gods, and now the legendaries that were coming into being. Bahamut sensed this and paid visit to his fellow dragon gods, who then split up to find the highest-ranking legendaries and ignite the spark of cosmic memory within them.
Once this was done, it was agreed the living nation had to be dealt with, however they were unable to destroy it. With that in mind, the gods and legendaries combined their powers to seal the nation beneath the ocean where its influence could not reach man and confine its power through the ancient rites of the gates of heaven and earth and the rites of the Natural Crown. For the Natural Crown to work, it was necessary to bring humans to the large island that was left from the submergence of the nation, and from those humans the eight tribes were established and the sealing complete.
With the history related the gods and legendaries said one more thing. “With the swords created and the seal strengthened, our constant presence is no longer necessary. Keep the balance and Atlantis will never again awaken.”
With those parting words of warning, the dragons and the legendaries dispersed and life continued from there… However, there is no greater enemy to memory than the passages of time. Two of the Masa swords are gone from the island; the tribe of Peace has been subjugated by War, and is trying to gain control of the other tribes; and with the scales of balance askew, one very power-hungry man has found information in ancient texts that speak of a weapon of unlimited power buried under the deepest ocean.
-Prologue-
Masa stood over the grave marked by a dull sword planted in the ground. A pained and angry stare was plastered on his face, the closest he got to being sad. It had been ten years, but he still paid tribute everyday to the one man he considered a friend, the one man he considered a rival.
Suddenly Masa’s train of thought was broken by a slowking that had appeared at his side. “I understand your feelings Masa, but don’t you think it’s a tad hypocritical for a man to grieve over life when he kills for a living with no remorse… much less ten years over one person.”
The normal look of anger washed over the mercenary’s face as he turned to face the slowking with a look that said ‘I’ll kill you if you say that again.’ “Tell me Neptune, do you know the feeling of having to kill your best friend? Just because he was the successor to the Murasame should not have been sufficient enough reason.”
Neptune just shook his head in pity. “If you wish to live in the past that badly I cannot stop you from doing so. However, you killed Mega while possessed by the enmity of the Masamune… in fact, it could be said that if not for his death, you would still be possessed today.”
“That may very well be so, but it’s of no comfort so long as I have this eye… What am I saying… this can’t be the reason you came here. What happened, you know I like to be left alone when I’m here.”
The slowking looked up to Masa. “Something strange is happening. Juggernaut collapsed earlier in pain. He said he kept hearing a voice saying for the ‘Children of Atlantis to return’ and, ‘the awakening is at hand”
Masa looked puzzled, “That reminds me of this old tale that used to be told to children of my town. Parents used to say that if children didn’t go to sleep then the monster Atlantis would pop up and eat them.”
Suddenly a voice echoed through the air but from seemingly nowhere. “It is no mere children’s story I’m afraid.” Masa immediately recognized the voice and dropped to one knee and bowed his head. “Bahamut my lord, it has been many years since your presence has touched this compound.” The voice rang out again, “Rise Masa, we must speak for you have much to learn…”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Okay, sign up information, usual stuff of course (name, age, etc.). Your character creation is pretty free, you only have one big guideline to uphold, there has to be reason to your character… well, you know what, it will just be easier if I give an example with my own sign up
Name: Masa (real name unknown)
Age: 33
Gender: Male
Sword: Masamune
Description: 6’2” with a small but muscular build (like Chrono if I had to give an example). Black unkempt hair and a jade green and crimson red eye (the crimson eye is a “scar” left over from a possession attempt by the Masamune.) He wears black, ninja stylized, armor and guards made with Metagross shavings and wears four swords at his side (the three dragon god swords and the Masamune).
Personality: Masa is cold to everyone… well almost everyone. He hates people, especially trainers, as he sees average pokemon trainers as slave drivers. Despite this, he is rather hospitable (beyond his words anyway) and will offer anyone who makes it through his death-trap forest a place to stay.
History: Masa is an outcast, banished from his home, the tribe of war, after being framed for the dishonorable murder of the original successor to the Masamune (the town elders did not want to believe he was so much better at such a young age). Trained for combat from the day he could hold a sword, Masa is a killing prodigy and has mastered multiple fighting, stealth, and assassin arts. He soon made quite the name for himself in the underworld. He did almost any job for the right price and soon it became where everybody wanted to hire him but nobody did out of fear. When that happened he went into seclusion and used his amassed wealth to buy a forest where he built his training compound. Every once in a while he still gets called for a big job, but now he spends most of his time training pokemon that come to him looking for power.
Other: Masa has made his own set of pokeballs as his life forced him to become a reluctant trainer of sorts. The pokeballs he made after diligent study emit a field around the captured pokemon that prevents them from being stolen or captured ever again. This allows any pokemon to always remain free. He will also kill without hesitation, any person trying to force servitude upon a pokemon.
Other 2: Masa was at one point possessed by the living soul of the Masamune. While the Masamune normally corrupts those who wield it, in Masa’s case, he was already a fairly corrupt and bloodstained individual. That mixed with his strength, and the Masamune wanted Masa’s body so it could be a flesh entity. During the possession, Masa killed the only person he considered a friend. It was his friend’s death that helped him fight back though, and now Masa has taken over the Masamunes’ powers, giving him some strange abilities.
Other 3: Masa discarded his true name 23 years ago when he was banished and started taking the names of his swords. As the Masamune recognized him as the next sword bearer, the village had to bequeath it upon him despite the banishment.
Other 4: Despite being a trainer, Masa never received an official starter, nor is he registered. Because of this he can have as many pokemon as he wants with him at any given moment, but in order to pull off most jobs and strategies, he keeps numbers fairly low.
Other 5: Because Masa lived the first part of his life in a culture that stayed very close to nature and pokemon, he is capable of understanding pokemon speech to some degree (almost perfectly with those he has close bonds to like Juggernaut).
Oh, one other thing as was pointed out in Other 4, It is possible for you to have more than six pokemon with you, but you have to have a reason for it, and be original, no copying someone else. Finally, for your character, make sure to include what sword you wish to take though you won’t get them in the beginning (and it is first come first served unless stated otherwise). Make sure that for the sword you choose the character is suitable, or at least makes it an interesting match up. You can also have other types of equipment, but if it’s anything special, again, there must be a reason for it. If you have an ability to speak to pokemon include that before the start of this as well and all pokemon speech should be put in <> before hand <like so>. Also put down bios for the pokemon you will have with you, and don’t bring in more than you can manage. I’ll give an example by listing one of Masa’s pokemon.
Name: Juggernaut
Species: Scyther/Scizor
Gender: Male
History: Juggernaut was Masa’s first partner in crime, before Masa could inherit the Tiamat Blade he had to defeat a pokemon in combat, and that pokemon was Juggernaut, an outcast from his own clan as well. They fought all day and Masa was finally victorious. Both wounded fairly well, Masa treated to both their wounds with the medicine he brought with him. Juggernaut, curious at the fact that he wasn’t caught, began to follow Masa around much to his dismay. One day they happened upon a trainer looking for a pokemon battle, when it was made evident the scyther was not his pokemon, he went about trying to catch it… that trainer was never heard from again. From that point on Masa swore he wouldn’t allow Juggernaut to be enslaved to a master, and they became partners.
Special Ability: Juggernaut has learned to evolve/devolve at will thanks to Bruiser and Natraj, Machoke and Machamp twins sharing the same body from birth.
Special History: Juggernaut is from a family line descended from an altered pokemon from Atlantis that’s genetic information survived through the apocalypse. Because of this he can alter his skin as a Scizor to Mythril and even Orihalcon.
Now, as you may have guessed from this pokemon don’t need to be normal run of the mill pokemon. In fact, it would be better if you know what fuse attacks are before you join this as normal attacks just won’t cut it after a while. Fuse attacks are the combination of one or more attacks to create something new. For instance, one of Juggernauts’ signatures as a Scyther is something called the Golden Sword series which basically manipulates a Hyper Beam, fusing the energy into his scythes. The most powerful attack in this series is Golden Hades, which involves using Hyper Beam, Toxic, and a few other attacks.
Now, two final things; first I will be switching RP styles at certain points. It will progress a lot like a normal RP, but at certain points I will switch form to something more combat oriented. At this point everyone will be playing against me (including myself) to survive. If you RP poorly, expect your character and/or pokemon to die, not faint, die. Lastly, this is a two-sided RPG. What is done in this one will effect the second one that is going on at the same time and vice versa. You may also not sign up for both of them even as a different character, this makes it more interesting so no one has complete influence over the whole story. If this is successful, I have other installments.
