I just want to know the overall plan here, so you're meeting in Saffron before attempting to take Shion? I ask cuz I'm a bit picky when it comes to introducing my characters, and always attempt to do so in the best way possible. I'd also like to know how you reccomend I introduce Ansoni to the rest of the cast.

Yeah, the plan is that the characters who are leading the Imperial forces are to meet at Saffron before marching on Lavender Town/Shion Town. The reason for this is mostly practical, as Saffron is a central hub in Kanto and the best place to stage an offensive.

Now Ansoni is an interesting character because he's the only one who isn't a noble or a Samurai. For him, you do have a few options. You can introduce him reacting to the changes that have happened to Shion in the last year (talk to Anarcho about that). You could introduce him watching the battle as it unfolds, and then embed him with one of the other characters when it ends. You could have him enter the Imperial camp and try to deliver intelligence, or act as a spy for Suke.

I like the last option, though he won't act officially as a spy, rather gathering info on his own and then offering it to Suke for a price, not because he's greedy, simply because he really doesn't have anything and needs essentials.

Right, so anyone who has already finished his app is free to post, and I hope the wip apps will be finished soon. The plan is still to meet up at Saffron before continuing on Lavender Town.

Dear OP, I have a question, which if answered already.... forgive me- but how would players RP medieval Kanto?

The whole point of Kanto is to be well, NOT traditional. Would it be correct to assume Kanto's towns and cities are meant to be generic medieval Japanese towns and cities?

A second, and related question: would the Sevii Islands count as part of Kanto or would they be too far away?

To your first question, yes, Kanto cities would resemble medieval Japanese cities, basically the same aesthetic as Johto.

And yes, the Sevii Islands are technically part of Kanto, but they wouldn't have a Daimyo. I suppose they would be owned by the Lord of Cinnabar.

Nice! In that case, I'll start scoping out some cities and towns now (but I won't join until a while later IRL).

I'm assuming this is one of those long-term RPs.

Reverse Brendan’s Dad- be a powerful guy in Hoenn going to Johto/Kanto to take over some Daimyo’s place (if the Daimyo is equivalent to a gym leader).

Yes, a Daimyo is the same as a gym leader.

Nation Name: Durin VII
Character Name: Daichi
Appearance:
Image
Age: 27
Gender/Sex: Male
Profession: Rōnin
Court Rank: None officially
Area of Control: None
Currently serving: Nobody
Home: Tanba City
Biography: His mother, Aiya, was a humble and caring woman who sadly passed away when Daichi was still an infant. It was, and still is the person who Daichi craves for the most. Instead of growing up with her, Daichi grew up with his father, the famed general Ryuji of Tanba City, better known as The Fukurō, the owl. In any other eyes, Daichi's childhood would be described as rough, but Daichi never knew any better. Friends he made would sometimes not return and they never stayed in one place for long. Going forth into the wild and returning to base was an all too familiar routine to Daichi. From a young age Daichi started to ask his father when he could serve with the men, but his father refused the first time, the second time, and each time Daichi asked again. It was the sole rule his father upheld strictly, no serving.

Instead his father taught him something else, something his mother valued, caring. Ryuji was not just famed in Tanba City, and when he received a gift for his services from the Imperial Family it was Daichi who had to take care of it. It was little Ena, the frog-like Pokémon. Daichi quickly grew fond of the small Pokémon and trained with him as much as he could. Getting his ass beaten by the soldiers in a Pokémon battle became a daily event and even though Ena improved, the two were never a true match for the army Pokémon.

In a single night Daichi found himself caring for three Pokémon instead of one. It was the worst night he could've ever had, the night of his fathers assassination. It seemed an impossible job, assassinating The Fukurō at night, yet somebody did it and left no traces at all. The men speculated about the possible perpetrator but without clear evidence nothing could be done.
Instead of waiting around, mourning his fathers death, Daichi swore to avenge his father. Three days after his fathers death Daichi left the army for the first time in his life and started his journey to Enju. If anyone could help him find the assassin who killed his father it would be the Emperor himself.

Personality: Daichi is tough man, a bit rough even due to his life with the army. If you get to know him better you'll find a caring person, deeply scarred by his fathers death and the lack of a mother in his life.
Pokemon: Noctowl, Aggron, Froakie
Misc. Info Both Noctowl and Aggron were his fathers Pokémon, Daichi will rely mostly on them for safety as he himself isn't quite the master at battling yet.

Name: Akira
Species: Noctowl
Age: 43
Gender/Sex: Male
Appearance:
Image
Master: Ryuji
Biography: Akira was found by Ryuji when it was still a small Hoothoot. It's paw had been broken after a nasty fight and needed special aid to heal. That special aid was gladly given by Ryuji and the two quickly developed a close friendship. After years of training the two joined the army and made a name for themselves, one that would not be forgotten quickly. When Ryuji became a general he ordered a new armour to be made with Akira depicted on the helmet, showing it off as the new family symbol.
After Ryuji's death Akira was given to the young son, Daichi, with whom he has started a journey to find justice for the murder of his master.
Personality: Akira is a calm and wise Pokémon, not quick to anger nor quick to forgive or forget.
Moveset:
  • Echoed Voice
  • Psycho Shift
  • Air Slash
  • Moonblast
Ability: Keen Eye
Misc. Info Although he travels with Daichi now, he still considers Ryuji as his master, at least till Daichi is strong enough to lead him better than he can himself.

Name: Arakan
Species: Aggron
Age: 35
Gender/Sex: Male
Appearance:
Image
Master: Ryuji
Biography: Arakan was born into the military where fights were a daily part of life. Aggron survived and thrived his early years and was seen as an excellent specimen. He was eventually offered to Ryuji when he joined the military. Together they trained and fought in which he grew to the Pokémon he is today.
Personality: Arakan is a loyal Pokémon, he's an absolute tank and will not turn away from any fight. He's very protective and strong in both body and mind.
Moveset:
  • Mud-Slap
  • Roar
  • Iron Head
  • Iron Tail
Ability: Sturdy
Misc. Info Although he travels with Daichi now, he still considers Ryuji as his master, at least till Daichi is strong enough to lead him better than he can himself.

Name: Ena
Species: Froakie
Age: 14
Gender/Sex: Male
Appearance:
Image
Master: Daichi
Biography: Ena was given to Ryuji as a gift from the Imperial Family. Instead of keeping it Ena was given to Ryuji's son, Daichi. The two became friends quick and trained hard, and although the two have never won a fight yet, Ena is confident in himself and his master.
Personality: Ena is a young, energetic Pokémon that likes to play around and train alongside the older, stronger Pokémon.
Moveset:
  • Quick Attack
  • Lick
  • Water Pulse
Ability: Torrent
Misc. Info It's a shiny Froakie.

I happen to have a few.

1) What would be my rank? My character is basically the son of a well known general who was assassinated (most likely by the mother of the emperor). He served as a simple student of his father.

2) What cities are there? I've noticed some names i didn't recognize. Are it just the Japanese names for the regional cities or are there other names used in the RP?

3) So what sides are there now. From my understanding there's the side of the Emperor and his mother, the side that opposes them and some random self-serving sides. I want to be sure if that's all of them or if i missed some.

1. Assuming he isn't the son of a Daimyo, his rank would just be Samurai. His biography though might expand on some stuff, such as where his father served, et cetera, et cetera. Look at some of the other apps, if you haven't already, to get a broader sense of the world so far, in particular, the apps of my characters because there is some history in them.

2. The cities are the same as the games, but we're using the Japanese city names in the IC for flavour.

3. Right now there are two broad factions. There is the Imperial Government and then there is the self-proclaimed Holy Man Suke of Shion, who is a mix of the Yellow Turbans from Chinese history and the Ikko-Ikki of Japanese history. He doesn't have any support among the Daimyo because of his radical vision, but he does have the support of some peasant and bandit groups. So, for now, most of the Daimyo are supporting the central government.

Of course, this is about to change and in a short time, it's likely a few Daiymo are going to rebel against the Empress' family and try to "liberate" the Emperor.

I happen to have a few.

1) What would be my rank? My character is basically the son of a well known general who was assassinated (most likely by the mother of the emperor). He served as a simple student of his father.

2) What cities are there? I've noticed some names i didn't recognize. Are it just the Japanese names for the regional cities or are there other names used in the RP?

3) So what sides are there now. From my understanding there's the side of the Emperor and his mother, the side that opposes them and some random self-serving sides. I want to be sure if that's all of them or if i missed some.

1. Assuming he isn't the son of a Daimyo, his rank would just be Samurai. His biography though might expand on some stuff, such as where his father served, et cetera, et cetera. Look at some of the other apps, if you haven't already, to get a broader sense of the world so far, in particular, the apps of my characters because there is some history in them.

2. The cities are the same as the games, but we're using the Japanese city names in the IC for flavour.

3. Right now there are two broad factions. There is the Imperial Government and then there is the self-proclaimed Holy Man Suke of Shion, who is a mix of the Yellow Turbans from Chinese history and the Ikko-Ikki of Japanese history. He doesn't have any support among the Daimyo because of his radical vision, but he does have the support of some peasant and bandit groups. So, for now, most of the Daimyo are supporting the central government.

Of course, this is about to change and in a short time, it's likely a few Daiymo are going to rebel against the Empress' family and try to "liberate" the Emperor.


I see, thanks!

As for the father, what Daimyo's are still open (just for the backstory, as the father has died ofcourse)?
