April Plotting Post


⋆✩ plotting post ✩⋆


MEMBER & GUILD RANKING

New quests are released! Sign-ups will open officially on the 3rd of this month, so until then, here's a plotting post for you all to get your Duckletts in a row! Before we hop right into things, though, here are the tallies from total quest points!

Click here for the rankings!
MEMBER RANKING
ICly, Rankings will show the points earned of all Pokemon in guilds, including NPC Pokemon not listed here OOCly. We didn't list guild leaders this time, but might in the future for fun. Keep in mind that quests available to player characters are not the entire pool of quests, and that some are likely snatched up before they can get to them regularly, which is how points vary and how some guilds pull ahead even without much player help. However, over time, player points will certainly affect the standing of guilds! Without further ado, here are the characters in ranking order by guild:

Oran Berries
Goro 850 points
Shoka 600 points
A.B.A 550 points
Ren 550 points
Ingo 400 points
Dark Heart 250 points
Emmet 250 points
Doc 200 points
Conrad 150 points
Akari 0 points

Cheri Berries
Firepaw 450 points
Junpei 250 points
Firoza 200 points
Laios 50 points
Siffrin 50 points
Guilmon 0 points

Lum Berries
Emporio 400 points
Courier Six 150 points
Ring-Spirit 100 points
Narciso 50 points

GUILD RANKING
And of course, posted everywhere is the guild ranking.

1. Lum Berries
2. Oran Berries
3. Cheri Berries


AVAILABLE QUESTS

This is a HEAVY QUEST month, meaning there are quests in the mix that are classified as "heavy!" What does this mean? More chance for plot, and more risk of consequence! Characters can try each quest more than once as long as no claim limit is listed, but will only receive points for any given quest once. However, consequences can occur within these dangerous listed quests. Due to potential for consequence or harm, we recommend waiting for results of one exploration-titled quest before submitting for another.

Previously, three teams went out into the forest to explore the northern, middle, and southernmost parts of the forest. Their efforts have expanded Bottlecap Bay's information on the forest in general, and altered certain parts of the forest itself. With that in mind, here's some information about each of the areas for you to use for your threads, to keep in mind while signing up, and to use for knowing what sort of angle you want to use to tackle these.

THE FOREST
A vast, disorienting expanse where natural laws seem to fray. Dense canopies block sunlight across all regions, making navigation difficult. The further you travel into the forest, the more you begin to experience the unique dangers that each subsection holds.

Northern Forest
Overgrown with aggressive plant life, many of which react violently to disturbances. Large vines creep across the forest floor and wrap around perceived threats, and whole trees seem to move when not watched. Any sort of dangerous, mysterious plantlife seems to be found here. One notable species is a strange mushroom that release spores which induce aggression. While the team that explored this area did successfully destroy mushrooms and send them away with wind-related attacks, the result is less than ideal; strange mushrooms have spread further than before and are quickly taking over this portion of the forest. Dr. Denne has developed a medication to counteract their effects, and has also put out a quest simultaneously to combat this sudden growth.

Middle Forest
A fog-laden stretch filled with steep declines and hidden pits. The mist clings to Pokemon, curving around them like a living being. The forest floor is incredibly unpredictable, and because of that, not much mapping seems to have been recorded even with the previous group's travel, but plenty of information has been collected on the reactions to the fog itself. Familiar figures might attempt to coax Pokemon apart from one another, or trick you further into the forest. Hallucinations grip at the mind with a depth that can put heavy mental strain on anyone who enters. Teamwork and trust is a must, here.

Southern Forest
The most treacherous in terms of navigation. Landmarks and markers shift unpredictably, and the ones left behind by the previous team are scattered about in strange, new locations. Even weirder, some of them look aged beyond comprehension. The fog exists here, but it's far less thick than in the center of the forest, even if just as disorienting. Hallucinations aren't the worry here, though: Ghost Pokemon thrive here, imitating teammates or other wild Pokemon and causing confusion. They might separate teammates, cause collapses on purpose, or cause Pokemon to turn on one another. Worst of all, parts of the forest floor have already collapsed into a system of unstable, old caves. These caves may collapse even further, leaving Pokemon stranded, separated, or struggling to free themselves.

In theory, could facial covering like a scarf potentially mitigate the severity of the spores' effects? Likewise with eye covering, e.g. goggles if available.

It mostly crossed my mind as something Akechi would want to try as a precaution, whether or not it actually does anything.

PLAYER INFO

ABOUT: Full time nights worker in the EST, I love pokemon quite a lot and tend to do a lot of RP and writing, mostly with JJBA and YGO characters (Though I've been picking up Cookie Run folks recently).

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Emporio Alniño
CANON: JJBA: Stone Ocean
POKEMON: Cubone
GUILD: Lum
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here!

ABOUT:
Saddest lad to ever sad, Emporio is a child who grew up in the most child-unfriendly place possible; a Floridian prison full of wannabe supervillains. All without getting caught! For Reasons (see his permissions), everything's vague from there, but what matters is he's a really smart kid, and has a whole lotta trauma to get over. Luckily, there's plenty to distract himself with- especially when you have the kind of heart that makes you want to actually Help people.

PLANS:
Emporio needs to work up some training! I'm still torn on if he'll be picking up a ground move sooner or later, but maybe at the least he can figure out something like Fling, that'd be fun.

Imagine a cubone throwing a fastball at you. The fast ball is a ro-

Whatever the case, the focus this month is all about QUESTS! He's going to be doing one of the BIG SERIOUS ONES with Anasui and potentially two others- specifically the MIDDLE forest, as Anasui is still irritable about headaches and knows pollen at the best of times is going to cause more of one, and meanwhile Emporio just really doesn't want to go south right now. He went before, and it sure sucked!

He's trying to do a bit more to just get out and about as well of course, but seeing how he can't go pearl-calling shots of the ocean, it'll be Mushroom Gathering and Spore Investigating from there.

Beyond that I'm keeping my books clear to see what comes on the mid-month event, he might just be available to poke at the other areas of the woods too, so let's plan! These days Emporio is now sharing his Lum room with Anasui, so keep that in mind if you wanna plot stuff in his house!

Want an Akari to join you for a quest or two? When Akari finds out about spore thing she will be like 'I bet it is some Paras, we got to be ready for them to eat us.'

Also down to throw Akechi at the spores if there's room! He was in the initial quest, and I think he'd want to make sure Ren doesn't get in over his head. ...Or Akari.

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Akari
CANON: Pokemon Legends: Arceus
POKEMON: Cyndaquil
GUILD: Oran
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here

ABOUT:
Arceus' favorite girl and she knows it. It gave her a phone and a phone case, what has it given you? But like, she doesn't have her phone here, so lame.

You know when most heros get isekai'd, and they start out timid and work their way up? Not her, she knows she is here to make Bottlecap Bay better (and worse).

PLANS:
She needs to level up, she is like level 5. Thats like, fresh out of the Pokeball, what the heck? She isn't a starter first partner Pokémon, she is the legendary (you're a starter, girl.)

She will be trying to do every mission possible because she is very a little traumatized from the entire Red Sky thing in Hisui, but she's over it. She promises. She knows you all need her to make this place better, not that she needs to earn her keep to have a roof over her head and food in her belly.

Goro Akechi

[personal profile] truthdecided 2025-04-01 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Goro Akechi
CANON: Persona 5 Royal
POKEMON: Rookidee
GUILD: Oran
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here!

ABOUT:
Former teen detective with a dark and traumatic past, whose lifetime of suffering led him down a reckless path toward revenge at age 15 when he awakened a power he could scarcely understand and sought to make himself "useful" to his piece of shit father so he could one day betray him. Things did not go as planned, but thanks to his bond with Ren (AKA Joker), he was able to start changing his ways and even escaped death via Power of Friendship™.

He's very aloof, pretentious, and can be downright vicious in battle, but carries himself with an air of politeness unless you piss him off. He's slowly trying to find himself here, free to choose the heroic life he dreamed of as a child rather while grappling with his frustrations at being changed against his will and dragged to another world by some higher power.

He also has a very homoerotic rivalry with Ren. Anyone in Oran can probably tell there's something going on with them, especially since Akechi started giving out soothing vibes from the nightmares aftermath.

Your character may feel compelled to cuddle. He may not be so receptive.

PLANS:
Akechi is absolutely going to want to do some quests! He's determined to continue rising through the rankings and proving himself.

I'd like to sign him up for at least one exploration quest. He's familiar with the northern forest, so he may be able to offer his experiences. Frankly, he'll also probably want to deal with the mushroom quest, too, since he feels like that was a partial failing on his part.

On the other hand, opportunities to explore new parts of the woods are also enticing, so I'm pretty flexible!

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Courier Six/Perrin
CANON: Fallout
POKEMON: Dragonite
GUILD: Lum
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here!

ABOUT:
Gentle-seeming weirdo who spends his time documenting things and trying to act like he belongs here. Actually from a post-nuclear future wherein he made an anarchy state. He misses home, but won't talk about it. He won't talk about a lot of things! His background is full of horrific stuff and so is his world, but instead he'll crack jokes about people he liked or hated.

You need to unlock his companion quest for more information about him (or be Shoka???), if it doesn't bug out... actually, I think it's funny that Perrin hasn't even given his real name to anybody. He's just Courier Six. Like, if he gets a canonmate from his verse who knows him it'll be so funny.

PLANS:
First of all, I hope for Perrin to take part in that Southern Forest exploration, and to have him show that yeah, he's a skilled explorer. I also have a few post ideas - him noting that no, tbose of them from other worlds aren't immune to these illnesses, but also. Like.

I want Perrin to accidentally get a chain letter started. Like a scam one or a spooky one. I think it'd be funny. I'll likely need volunteers to get the first letters, though.

ANYTHING ELSE: I might still app Fordola and will still be replying to that! March sucked for me. Hopefully April is better?

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Ren Amamiya
CANON: Persona 5 Royal
POKEMON: Sprigatito
GUILD: Oran Berries
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here!

ABOUT:
That rowdy Sprigatito who got cursed and attacked soooo many people on sight... but also is always first to offer help if needed. Really, he can be a bit of a troll, but he's got a good heart. Has a very strong set of personal morals and convictions. He's very good at befriending people, and helping them with their personal problems- sometimes at his own detriment.

Also he used to lead a supernatural vigilante group back home and got arrested like, twice. Oopsy.

Also also has a... rivalry with Akechi. Yeah. Nothing more nothing less. Nothing gay going on here (sarcasm).

Due him not talking about the nightmares, they have once again returned, and worse than ever. He also suddenly had a brand-new scar on his forehead, and an ache in his muscles that never quite goes away...

PLANS:
I'm hoping to send Ren back to the Northern forest! He figures that having been part of the team that did the initial exploration will help with mapping it out further and migitating the dangers. Being prepared is key! ... Chronic pain? Nah, he can deal. Don't worry about it! I fthe Northern Forest goes well, he may come along to another mission in the other parts of the forest...

He'd also very much like to do A Shellfish Request and Mush to be Done! He's always happy and eager to help the pokemon in the community. Spore Investigation too, tbh0 Also! Always up for forming some CR! Talk to my boy! Or fight him! I'm up for whatever <3 I'm feeling a lot better than I did in March so hopefully I can do more tags.

You are not going into the Northern Forest without Akechi, bucko. He's concerned about Ren's pain and his nightmares.

There will probably be many soothing cuddles. It's not like he's soft. It just seems to work.

PLAYER: Bones
ABOUT: I'm an indie comic artist in EST, currently working on a passion project that's gonna keep me busy for the next year or two. I also do commission artwork, including some of the Pokemon icons we have in-game! I'm a big nerd about dogs, D&D, Bioshock, horror media and of course Warrior Cats.

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Firepaw
CANON: Warrior Cats
POKEMON: Litten
GUILD: Cheri
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Right here!

ABOUT:
Firepaw used to be an indoor/outdoor housecat named Rusty, before he wandered into the forest and discovered a secret tribal cat society in the woods. He lived with them for two months before ending up here, and he loved that but his loyalty to his Clan is starting to fade a bit as he adjusts to being a Pokemon for the prospective future.

Firepaw is an enthusiastic, brave and friendly kitten, now about 10 months old and starting to look properly full-grown. He's open-minded to a fault, and actually a terrible judge of character because he just assumes everyone else has good intentions and a good reason to do what they're doing. Or, at worst, will change their mind if they're informed about how their actions affect others. (This will get him killed in canon, but he gets better.) Case in point, he is on friendly terms with every single character in the game, including our new folks, and he would love an excuse to hang out with any and all of them.

Since coming to Bottlecap Bay, Firepaw started learning how to swim in case more people got swept in by the storm, but he's started slowing down on that since folks started wandering in from the forest instead. He's still learning to swim, just not doing it so often he makes himself sick. Instead he's using that extra time to help out at the PokeClinic, take any quests he can physically manage, and do literally anything he's asked to do by anyone, just to be as helpful as possible. Those in Cheri especially will probably notice him getting very exhausted by this, because he's not taking as much time as he needs to rest.

PLANS:
Firepaw already explored the southern forest, and I don't think he's in a hurry to repeat the experience, but I'd love for him to go exploring in the northern or middle forest! I think he'd be more helpful in the middle forest, but it also just sounds generally fun to play around with him getting aggression-spored.

Outside of quests, I would love to do some threads of characters just hanging out, especially since I overstretched myself last month and didn't get around to doing things like exploring the city with Shoka. Firepaw's also officially been a Pokemon for longer than he was a member of ThunderClan, so I'd love a thread of him discussing that with close CR (or anyone willing to listen, really, 'cause he loves all of you.) I think this month I'm gonna do a catch-all log that's mostly going to be socializing, and tags might be slow since I'm slowly getting busier and busier.

ABOUT:
Ingo has been easily taking on the role of one of the experienced adults in the room! There's definitely some personal drama going on in his life, but he is very much holding it together in front of everybody else!

PLANS:
Ingo is still actively training, both himself and providing tutoring for others! He's trying to be helpful and involved!

I'd definitely like to get him involved in one of the heavy quests! I don't have a strong preference about which one; he's explored in the Southern Forest some already, but given how things work there it's not like he actually knows his way around there any better than anyone else. He's a fire-type, though, which is always handy in a forest!

He'll likely also do at least the mushroom quest, since he's pretty suited to that. Like a big badger. Other light quests/training stuff is totally open!

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Firoza Istus (WoL OC)
CANON: Final Fantasy XIV
POKEMON: Nidoran♀
GUILD: Cheri Berries
INFO/PERMISSIONS: boop

ABOUT:
Firoza is my Warrior of Light from the critically acclaimed MMORPG etc etc, you know the meme. She's just finished up her cool summer vacation adventure in Dawntrail, so we're kind of on a renewing, healing sort of energy with our travels here. She's used to being a Paladin, aka a tank with some serious defensive capabilities, so becoming a tiny poisonous baby is...weird! Now instead of wanting everything to only hit her, she can't let anyone hit her! Her hobbies include weaving/sewing, enjoying some excellent bread, learning about new sword things, and helping people whosoever they might be. Even if they need you to collect or transport poop.

Final Fantasy XIV sure is a game.

But! Great progress has been made. She's been training, and by now her movement as a quadruped is much less awkward. She's taken to practicing moves on non-living targets to get the feel for how to attack/move her body/fight more naturally. She's also been able to take up sewing re-learning lessons thanks to a good word from Ribombee, and she's...okay, her needlework is nowhere near where she'd like it to be, but the fact that she can hold and handle needle and thread again has been an excellent step forward. (It helps that she brought Shoka along to come and learn too. Friendship!) Her ultimate goal is to make simple satchels for as many kinds of Pokemon as possible, so she needs a lot of practice, but every bit counts!

PLANS:
I'm looking to go into the Southern Forest with Courier Six/Perrin, but otherwise I'm pretty open on plans. Would love to do some chill root/mushroom foraging, maybe also collecting spores to help out Dr Denne so we can get the plot heavy quests done better?

And just, in general, I love friends for Firoza. I love her interacting with others. She loves to learn new things. Let's have a chill time and be friends.

ANYTHING ELSE: Like I mentioned above, we're in the middle of a move over here, so my time is...limited and weird. But I will get those tags out to you dangit!!

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Conrad Achenleck
CANON: Hanna Is Not A Boy's Name
POKEMON: Jigglypuff
GUILD: Oran
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Right Here!

ABOUT:
It's not hard to see past all of Conrad's blustering and get that he's actually quite the softie. He likes to pretend he's not a pushover, but he's all bark and no bite. Well, mostly. He can be hot-headed and he's not afraid to punch someone for being a jerk. And he does have baggage and some hang-ups he should really try to work on. Also, he's an artist, a snappy dresser, a romantic at heart, a bit of a stick in the mud, and a neat freak.

Shortly before becoming a Pokémon he was made into a vampire and he may have been the world's worst undead blood sucker. He couldn't view people as food and all his anxieties and insecurities kept him from reaching his full potential as a creature of the night.

Now he quite dislikes being a Jigglypuff and will gripe about his squishy, round body as much as possible. He's slowly learning how to battle as a Pokémon, but he still struggles just getting by.

PLANS:
Conrad could use more help with training and figuring out his battle skills. Maybe someone could get him to use Sing? He's quite self-conscious about singing in front of someone, even if he does immediately send them to slumber land.

He'd also help get mushrooms, even if he wouldn't be particularly good at it. He's already got a bit of a temper, so being exposed to mushrooms that increase aggression would get him worked up like whoa. Also he could be useful exploring the southern forest, maybe, as he's immune to Ghost moves. Okay, maybe he won't be very useful, but he'll try his best...

What's that? Conrad wants a singing partner? Someone with absolutely no sense of embarrassment about it whatsoever? Please oh please pick him. He won't even care if he goes to sleep. Actually, getting put to sleep would be the coolest part.

I'm vaguely canon familiar, but also I just have to put Laios against someone who might have a low tolerance for his usual shenanigans!!

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Siffrin (Start Again)
CANON: In Stars And Time
POKEMON: Shinx
GUILD: Cheri
INFO/PERMISSIONS: here.

ABOUT:
Siffrin is a little rogue (yes, despite the wizard hat) who went along on a quest to save a country from an evil King because... they had nothing better to do! Then they promptly got stuck in a time loop when the party failed the final dungeon. You'd think the unlimited attempts would be a good thing, but as it turns out, living the same two days over and over (and over and over and over, for years) is a very bad time! Especially when you're secretly already quite Mentally Unwell beforehand. They can't recommend it.

That aside, Siffrin likes to present themself as a friendly, helpful jokes-and-puns guy with a mysterious and indistinct backstory (hmmmm). Underneath, though, they're extremely lonely and willing to do quite a bit for positive attention and company! They also have a chronic problem of not being honest about their problems (including to themself!) and trying hard to come off as "normal." Siffrin is usually well-intentioned but their avoidance can lead to problems or make them bottle stuff until they snap, and their morals are somewhat flexible, particularly after Time Loop Hell. They still have some hard lines, but they're up for general Crimes and susceptible to being peer-pressured.

At this particular moment in time they don't have their memories from later in canon due to the fog, but their outward attitude and the personality they present may change as they get those back, depending on how CR has been going until then! (Maybe they'll become more volatile and bristly, maybe they'll act more annoying to deflect questions or generally be distant, maybe they'll aggressively fake the same attitude as before but with more cracks in it...) They'll still mostly be the same guy under the surface, though, just. Even more Mentally Unwell. 🥲

Obviously there is nothing strange and unusual about this being "Siffrin (Start Again)" rather than just "Siffrin" I have no idea what you're talking about.

Strongly recommending checking my permissions/opt out HERE to make sure there's nothing you want to opt out of, including spoilers! Otherwise: for canon point reasons, I'm mainly sticking to they/them pronouns for them myself, but he/him is also fine.

PLANS:
They're new! They're gonna start off running themself ragged to try and be liked by people, particularly while they don't have their late canon memories back yet! Please rope them in on quests they need the CR.

My goals for them this month:
- Get to know fellow Cheri Berries!
- Get to know folks in general!
- Participate in one of the heavy quests!
- Start gradually getting some late canon memories back, unless events say otherwise!

Handwaving: I'm very open to handwaving, whether that's first meetings (so we can just start threading with a quest), handwaving the rest of a TDM thread so we can start something new, or generally handwaving little in-between-thread interactions! If you've got something in mind, just poke me.

I will be tagging out on the plotting meme tomorrow because it's late, please bear with me. wheeze. I promise I am eyeing u all

Come on weird cat with nothing wrong, you're becoming a companion of Courier Six who also clearly has nothing wrong. (Who is also heavily Mentally Ill!)

i also opt into everything >:3c With how I play Perrin and Fourth Walling, he does make jokes about general Fallout and RPG tropes, I play it similar to Fallout 2 but toned down. So it's not like he'll know others are on the fourth wall, but he does crack jokes about his perks and the such sometimes.

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Shoka Sakurane
CANON: The World Ends with You
POKEMON: Mimikyu✨
GUILD: Oran
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here!

ABOUT:
In many ways, Shoka is just your average teenager. She loves shopping, fashion, and mobile games (her favorite being FanGO, her world's equivalent to Pokémon GO), and misses her phone and the internet intensely. She is sarcastic, stubborn, and often surly. She struggles with feelings of apathy and self-doubt. She's also been dead and "living" as an ageless (Grim) Reaper for a while and loves to fight people for fun.

Despite her attitude problem, deep down she means well, and those willing to accept her spicy outer layer may find in her a loyal friend who can be helpful and even sweet in her own way.

PLANS:
I've got nothing specific in mind this month and just want a lil bit of everything if you'll indulge me... More general CR building! More training/battles! More forcing this sadgirl to try out some new hobbies so she doesn't get stuck in the Depression Hole™!

Look at her crappy sewing projects, boy. They look pretty bad, but she made them!! COULD A DEPRESSED GIRL MAKE THIS?

I don't have any specific quests I'm really gunning for OOCly this time around, but if your character might think to bring Shoka along on a quest (if they would, Shoka and i are both very touched), Mimikyu being a nocturnal Pokémon might make her useful in the low light conditions of the forest - and by now she's had plenty of experience with combatting the effects of fog-hallucinations as well.

On the other hand, the aggression mushrooms also potentially sound like fun to play with... Shoka's been a little too nice and helpful lately, it's about time she had a chance to just pummel someone for no good reason!

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Laios Touden
CANON: Delicious in Dungeon (manga)
POKEMON: Boltund
GUILD: Cheri
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here!

ABOUT:
[He would] have the stats that would normally make up a strong, well-rounded leader. However, his social skills are so lacking that it basically negates his other strengths... Which is to say, this boy ain't right! He has no social graces, is a little too stoked to be here, and tends to unnerve most people even back home. He is now a monster-obsessed-turned-Pokémon-fanatic, and he will be excited to try all the food Bottlecap Bay has to offer. Yes, that means everything. Wait, hold on, please don't go yet—

Laios has always struggled to fit in, but despite his experiences (or more likely because of them), he's far more kind and accepting than most would give him credit for. He may not know how to show it correctly, but he genuinely means well, and holds every friendship he does manage to make very close to his heart. Even as a dungeon party leader, he's both resourceful with his knowledge and mindful of his teammates' capabilities, especially when it comes to their well-being. Taking care of yourself is not a joke! He will not be tolerating everyone going gung-hu nonstop around here!

Also. He has an impressive dog impersonation. He's very excited to show it off as an actual dog. Why wouldn't you want to be his friend because he's still an absolute weirdo, that's why.

Side note: he's coming from the end of the manga, but I'll keep spoilers vague or mostly nonexistent for any anime-only watchers! If you want me to explicitly avoid them when tagging, I have an opt-out too.

PLANS:
Quests, both heavy and light! Guild meet-and-greets (shoutout to my Cheri Berries)! Getting the hang of his current moves! Trying to make his own recipes! Generally, I'm just open to anything and everything with this guy, because he'll be excitably running all around town trying to make the most of his time. Also, any initial CR building, good, bad, or in-between, would be most excellent.

For the quests, I might be most interested in having him explore the northern forest for aggressive spore fun times. Otherwise, sniffing out roots and mushrooms seems like a good way to ease him into things and get to know people. The Numel request is also just hilarious because dropping an Electric-type into the ocean definitely sounds like the right call for everyone involved.

Also, if you might want to handwave any TDM threads or initial interactions, I'm happy to just start plotting some new stuff out instead!

LAIOOOOOS

I would love to thread out Firepaw trying to teach him to hunt mostly because I cannot wait to watch Laios try to eat a raw bird.

Also Firepaw has been cuddling with any of the Cheri's that will let him at night because the canopy is cold af, so feel free to assume he is sleeping next to or on top of Laios at least some of the time.

PLAYER INFO
PLAYER: Pyra
ABOUT: Hiya! I'm Pyra. I'm an Australian, a Post-doc in Bioinformatics, and I'm tired. Work has been a killer and I'm so sorry I'm late. But anyways I'm really excited to meet you all and be a part of this game! Also yes, my plurk is a reference to the fact that most people contact me through Usagi lmao.
CONTACT: Discord at Pyrachan or plurk at usagisimaginaryfriend

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Narciso Anasui
CANON: JJBA: Stone Ocean
POKEMON: Espathra
GUILD: Lum
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Over here!

ABOUT:
Anasui is what happens when a writer asks 'how abhorrent can I make a morally good character while still being a heroic person'. Anasui is an antisocial murderer who only cares for one person (who isn't even in Bottlecap Bay). He's also one of Emporio's prison dads (the worse one, unfortunately). That being said, he's a loyal guy, a vicious combatant, and now a very angry bird.

As much as he would like to be left alone, please do not leave him alone. He will start dismantling the bridges of canopy if not stopped. He's very stressed out, okay?

PLANS:
I want Anasui to make new friends because he struggles to care for people. I promise it'll be worth your while. Anasui will take a bullet for you and more if you can get his trust and put it in practice with Ally Switch.

Anasui will be doing a big quest with Emporio and Akari (and maybe one other?) but he will just be around getting used to things. OOC, I just want to meet everyone and get used to to tagging here!

ANYTHING ELSE:
This is all you need to know about him:

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: A.B.A
CANON: Guilty Gear
POKEMON: Silvally✨
GUILD: Oran
INFO/PERMISSIONS: Here

ABOUT:
A.B.A is your local socially awkward homunculus-turned-Pokémon-homunculus. Her special interests include keys, the color blue, and somehow making everything about her key husband. Although she won't hesitate to tell you that all her guild work is purely self-motivated, she IS starting to value the satisfaction she gets when people tell her she's doing good or being helpful. A.B.A is naturally very timid when it comes to interacting with people, but thanks to Pokémon world, she's been doing a lot better because everyone is so gosh darn cute. Please continue being her friend, she needs it.

PLANS:
I think I'm going to take it easy this month, I think some people may have noticed my tagging drive took a nosedive in the middle of March. Whoops. I still have quests from last month to catch up on, so I'd hate to take on more and just continue to flounder around. ICly, I'm gonna say it's probably thanks to her talk with Lusamine in the last tdm, and now she's struggling with the fact that her Pokémon species isn't the super awesome scientific marvel she hyped herself into believing it is. A.B.A's free for any handwaved quests, though! And I'm always down for new CR!

Anasui is not cute but he gets the urge to make everything about your beloved.

Hope taking it easy works well! I'd love to make new CR and meet ya!

PLAYER INFO
PLAYER: Mauyn / Mii, call me either or!
ABOUT: PST, normally of the up way too late at night crowd but that oftentimes gets flipped around to match availability of tagging partners. If you get a tag at what-the-hell o'clock don't worry about it. I am neither a morning lark nor a night owl but instead some secret third thing: a permanently exhausted pigeon. I'm also juuuuust finishing up the short-term game I was in for all of March and early April, so I should be significantly more available again going forward!
CONTACT: Feel free to friend request and hit me up at [plurk.com profile] ellipsesinaction, pm this journal, or request my Discord, I'm easy.

CHARACTER INFO
CHARACTER: Emmet
CANON: Pokemon B/W (2) (i think i write this differently every time—)
POKEMON: Hisuian Zoroark
GUILD: Oran
INFO/PERMISSIONS: alley-oop.

ABOUT:
Weird battle-happy Zoroark of the Oran Berries, not that there's a shortage of battle fanatics there, but anyway. Always Smiling. That brother that Ingo keeps mentioning. The guy who would know what IVs and EVs are. He's relatively friendly, cheerful and enthusiastic if a bit direct, and can be one of the adults in the room if you need him to be? If you talk for him for too long the train metaphors are inevitable.

PLANS:
I was deader in March than I expected to be, so honestly I kind of just want to throw myself back into things? If people are still open to backtags on the March TDM I might hit a couple of top levels up because the prompts are neat, but otherwise I'll look for places to hop into new stuff! Anyway, I imagine a lot of folks have already sorted out some of their bigger quest teams by now, but if there's any room left for stragglers... holds out hands with pleading eyes... mission buddies pls, I will thread out all the missions with everyone. He was with the group who went through the southern part of the forest previously, not that it means too much. Emporio has also been making hilarious use of the Zoroark mane and the ability of smaller Pokemon to ride along in it so far; maybe you, too, can have a personal ride on the Emmet Express to get around faster if you're too small to move quickly otherwise. He would actively want to get himself into things so the fact that he hasn't been around as much is on me rather than anything else.

Oh! If anyone wants to handwave stuff done in the background during March too just let me know. He's always up for a spar or training, at the very least, he'll get zoomies otherwise.

ANYTHING ELSE: I'm probably forgetting something and I'm mobile I don't have a meme or cute fox picture available this time around, please understand—
