MUN
Name: Hecate
Timezone: EST
Contact: PMing Cecil's account works best!
What you're looking for: For Cecil, anything! People his age, kids, newcomers and old timers, he wants you all! For Ash, I'd like to build some solid CR, now that he's been for a few weeks. Maybe even some negative CR, with the whole nosy pirate thing.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Cecil Harvey (paladinlost) • Final Fantasy IV: The After Years (Dissidia: Final Fantasy)
Location Vermillion
Blurb: Paladin King of Baron turned serious trainer. Has been here for a very long time and is more than happy to share info and/or stories. Would rather die than admit his current situation at home, but is starting not to mind if people know he's not completely human.
Plans: Getting as far as he can in the tournament! Buying TMs and finding Move Tutors to fix whatever weaknesses he'll find in his team during the tournament! Maybe traveling around and actually taking the time to enjoy it, oh my!

Name + Journal + Series: Captain Ash (captainash) • Mobile Suit Gundam AGE
Location Cherrygrove, soon to leave for Violet
Blurb: Pirate captain stuck in this world with no Gundam and no crew, not that he admits most of that. He refuses to say much about himself, but he likes people and gets along with them relatively easily. Currently on his best behavior and gathering all the com mons ever.
Plans: Ash is getting a Chatot in Sprout Tower. Non-negotiable. He'll also be exploring the ruins, and I want him to get interested in locked posts and their hacking. He needs to do piratey stuff!

...Also, his latest post is very sadly unloved. Won't anyone worry about that poor, confused newborn Meowth? I can offer tags back and eternal love and stuff in exchange.

[for_realsies]

If Captain Ash wants a travel companion he can have Immy.

...She's only a bit crazy.

What you're looking for: I LOVE BANTER. Also shenanigans, facilitating characters doing badass things, and just generally finding neat methods for characters to interact with the Pokemon world in fun and interesting ways.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Yagyuu Hiroshi (usedlaserbeam) • Prince of Tennis
Location: Goldenrod City as always, in the Tennis Haus

Blurb: Canonically, Yagyuu is a fifteen-year-old member of the Rikkaidai Fuzoku tennis club regulars, which means he is both Very Good at tennis and will also put you in traction without hesitation if it means the difference between victory and defeat. On the surface he's called The Gentleman because of his pleasant and affable demeanor, but this is also the guy who tricked a fellow middle-schooler to taking a high-speed tennis ball to the face and then taunted him about it with his own catchphrase while they were taking him out on a stretcher. Routewise, he's now sixteen and in the absence of his team and tennis he's begun to mellow out a little, but he's still got a fair penchant for assholery if he's given the chance. Also, he is the despairing owner of sixteen Eevees because I like making his life terrible.

Plans: Not much! He's hit his box limit of 54 Pokemon so there isn't much for him to do by way of that, but I'm hoping to have an egg sale sometime between now and Christmas if anyone is interested in picking up something he's got in his roster. Also he could always use some more people to talk to because, y'know, CR is awesome.


Name + Journal + Series: Carmen Sandiego (doitrockapella) • Where On Earth Is Carmen Sandiego?
Location: I'LL NEVER TELL GDI Ecruteak City!

Blurb: The greatest thief who ever lived. Looks fabulous in red. Steals your shit and makes you learn things trying to get it back. Also has a Porygon2 by the name of Zack who frequents the network to tell puns and generally get love advice. Names her entire roster in the style of her VILE henchmen, terrible puns and all. Once stole Cobra Commander's bigass snake throne. Just recently defaced Mt. Mortar. Also rolls at a +5 against FBI agents.

Plans: Hopefully she'll be hitting the road again soon to head into Kanto for CR reunions and also Thanksgiving, but for the moment she's kind of a mess because Kiki just left and not even history can make it better. As usual, I'm always open to the idea of arranging a theft or some other big crime if people want to do something with that, or if there's something her thieving skills would be good for re: facilitating someone else's shenanigans, please let me know and I'd be happy to discuss options. o/


Name + Journal + Series: Albert Rosenfield (worktodo) • Twin Peaks
Location: Saffron City, on the Justice Farm of SCIENCE!!

Blurb: Albert is a cranky FBI agent from 1989 who is a forensic pathologist and also hates just about everything in the world because he is secretly a massive idealist and staunch pacifist and very few people meet his exceedingly high standards. Also he is very smart and loves his Pokemon very much despite giving them the most terrible names known to man.

Plans: ALL THE PLANS. For CR of his, Albert's hosting Thanksgiving at the Justice Farm so get your asses in gear toward Saffron and crash his party and infuriate him by sleeping on all his couches and shit. Hopefully he'll be able to make an IC announcement about it sometime this week but if god forbid I fail at that, PEOPLE ARE INVITED. Also the first phase of his plans for doing SCIENCE!! to Pokemon battles are about to come to fruition, so ANY SCIENCEY-TYPES who want to make a pilgrimage to Saffron and shack up at his house to help him build science shit and play Mythbusters and generally DO SCIENCE!!, hit me up and we'll work something out. He has lots of rooms and bunk beds in all of them. YEAH.

Contact: Plurk is best (Rakath), AIM (Rakath Chaos) also works as does Private Messaging Imogen's journal.
What you're looking for: I love forcing my muses to grow through adversity and trauma. But... Immy needs a bit more stability before that, so she needs friends to rely on!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Imogen Moreno (for_realsies) • DEGRASSI
Location She's in Cherrygrove until Friday, where she sets off for Violet. Eventually heading up to the farms. At least, that's her plan.
Blurb: Wild and Eccentric ordinary schoolgirl. No, she's really mundane, no special powers. She remembers enough of playing Gen 1 to be savvy, but she's a bit too... eccentric to be totally relied on. Fond of animals, not fond of battles.
Plans: Imogen wants a Ponyta, so she'll probably move toward the farms sooner or later. She's looking to gather the badges because... that's the point, but she's a bit too... kind, to properly battle. Mostly she fends off mons and catches ones she thinks are friendlier looking. Hit me up for plans, she will be traveling the cities because she sees no reason to sit still.

What you're looking for: Anything and everything! :3b

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Emmy Altava (snapandscoot) • Professor Layton
Location Vermillion, soon to head to Ecruteak and then a trip through Kanto!
Blurb: Emmy is a very perky puzzle-solving person, with a thing for tea and martial arts. Quite friendly, but she can also be a little blunt and rather rash, at times! She means well, however, and if you're friendly to her she'll be friendly back!
Plans: After a trip to Ecruteak Emmy will be wandering through Kanto with Isaac McDougal. She will also be canon updated for Miracle Mask/PL5 in the near future, which will give me a few new things to work with, particuarly with her cast members. She's probably the character that I have the most stuff for at the moment, however I am always looking for new CR for her! I know I haven't posted with her in quite a while and I intend to change that very soon, but for now I'd love for her to get some more friends, particularly those of the female variety! But gentleman are, of course, more than welcome~


Character
Name + Journal + Series: Alex Louis Armstrong (sculpted) • Fullmetal Alchemist
Location Vermillion, but he'll be heading back to Johto soon.
Blurb: I WILL TRY TO DO A PROPER BLURB FOR HIM THIS TIME DAMMIT basically once you dig past all of the sparkle and the muscles, Armstrong is a very kind man who loves spending time with his friends and family (his pokemon, in Route) and being an active sort of fellow. He's very gentlemanly and boistrous, and is capable of getting along with...pretty much everyone if they can tolerate his overwhelming desire to rip off his shirt when he gets excited. He is more than capable of being serious, however, when the situation demands it.
Plans: I've got a few little things planned for Armstrong but nothing overly major; I'm open to anyone (male or female!) who would want to have a bromance with this man, because he is kind of made for bromances. I'd also love to find him some others who would be interested in sparring with him, as he needs a good physical challenge now and again! But really, I'm open to anything if you're interested, and so is he! WHEE BEING FRIENDS WITH EVERYONE SO HE CAN FORCE THEM TO LOOK AT HIS MUSCLES


Character
Name + Journal + Series: Dr Kato (artfuldestruction) • Astro Boy
Location Goldenrod, skulking around the TR base.
Blurb: Kato is pretty much the definition of a Mad Bomber, and gets a lot of pleasure out of blowing things up and generally being a plague on society. On the surface, however, he's rather polite and well spoken, with a tendency to be snide if he feels you deserve it. He's also a total suck-up if he feels you can get him what he wants. He is an evil little bastard, though, so don't expect sunshine and rainbows!
Plans: Kato will soon be doing something with Cobra, related to Pokeballs; I should probably make an OOC post about that. But for now, he's just chilling in the lab and working on his dastardly machines. I'm always up for more people who want to have a hatemance/rivalry with him, as I do enjoy knocking him down a few pegs, the smug prick. For Rocket members, he's always keen to cause trouble so if you're interested in something, just let me know!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Page (atrueheroine) • Fable III
Location Azalea Town, although she'll be moving on fairly soon.
Blurb: Page is the leader of a bunch of revolutionaries back in her home world, so she's a fairly strong personality that can come off as rather unpleasant at times. However, her months in Johto have mellowed her quite considerably, and the only people whom she'll really be a bitch at are her castmates (because they deserve it goddamn :|), so! She's quite serious but occasionally has moments where she'll actually smile and be lighthearted, and thankfully they're becoming more and more common the more time she spends in Johto, so. She's the sort you'd want on your side if you were heading into battle, as she's quite the strategist.
Plans: I don't have anything really set in concrete for Page; she's still trying to ~find herself here in Johto, what with not having a revolution to plan any more, but I'm always up for people trying to force her out of her shell a bit! Particularly those on the bubbly side, as she can be a bit introverted at times. She has no female friends in her canon so I am all for the female friendships, too! But again, I'm not exactly going to turn away males who are interested in CR with her, so! ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING

[for_realsies]

Immy and Armstrong would be adorable. I dunno what they would do and I don't care, it'd be adorable.

[explosivecombat]

MUN
Name: Dal
Timezone: EST (GMT -5:00)!
Contact: My AIM is AsylumBred, though I can also be reached through PMing any of my journals!
What you're looking for: I like CR of all sorts, both positive and negative! I would actually really like some more negative CR overall, but I'm down for trying to get some of my more asocial ones some positive CR as well. Bromance is always okay, and I prefer it to shipping, though I'm not opposed to shiptease or the possibility of shipping, either.

...TL;DR - EVERYTHING IDK

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Solf J Kimblee (explosivecombat) • Fullmetal Alchemist
Location Currently in Vermilion for the tournament, but he'll be back in Johto after that!
Blurb: Outwardly, he's a rather cultured gentleman - polite in speech, with a passion for beauty, music, psychology and philosophy. Knows how to treat ladies, will be kind to your kids. Beneath all that, however, he's cold and calculating - more or less emotionally dead, trying to get close to whomever he can for the sake of using them. He's also more than slightly insane and prone to shrieking fits of...crazy when he's overstimulated. He likes blowing things up. A lot.
Plans: He's going to be wandering around parts of Johto with Logan, as part of TR training and just generally getting the guy out on the routes and away from his more batshit insane countrymen; he also does have a few TR-related plans in the works. However, this doesn't mean he can't be snagged otherwise; I'm down for anything, really, though I'd love for him to have more CR on the villainous front, either victims or allies, and I definitely enjoy intellectual rivalries and he's one I'd want that sort of thing with.

Name + Journal + Series: Jean Descole (scientificflair) • Professor Layton
Location Currently in Vermilion for the tournament; otherwise, he tends to flit back and forth between Kanto and Johto as he desires.
Blurb: A self-described "humble scientist" with an ego roughly the size of the moon; fond of the arts, mechanical engineering, being a melodramatic asshole and terrorizing quaint English villages with humongous mecha that he designs out of excavating equipment. Also, he plays the pipe organ. (...he's kind of one of those people I couldn't make up if I tried.) Basically, he likes to pretend he's cultured, so just...let him pretend. He's another in the classy-sadistic-bastard set, but he's far less cold than Kimblee is, and also far more secretive about his personal life in general. He also likes to troll people; shame he's kind of bad at trolling.
Plans: He's going to be put under for a canon update soon (to the end of Miracle Mask), but once that's taken care of I don't have anything planned! He's likely going to be geeking it out with several of the more SCIENCE!!!-oriented people, but I'm pretty much up for anything.

Name + Journal + Series: Reaver (istheindustry) • Fable
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Reaver tends to come off as though there quite simply aren't any deep thoughts in his empty little head; he's a depraved bisexual that flirts with literally everyone, he has a tendency to seem like the least observant person in the room, and he generally seems to have no real interests outside of having a good time. However, beneath all the fluff he's actually an incredibly pragmatic businessman (the head of all industry in his native country of Albion), rather observant and knowledgeable about a number of subjects, and he's also the Hero of Skill - in canon, this pretty much means that he can use a pistol to snipe the balls off a mouse at six hundred yards, but Route it comes down to "ridiculous amounts of speed and dexterity, and a fair bit of sulking because he doesn't have his guns." He's terribly narcissistic and vain and generally in love with himself, and it might not be a wise idea to invite him to talk about himself, lest you end up standing there all day listening to him loving the sound of his own voice.
Plans: He's going to be heading out to Olivine (by way of Ecruteak) shortly; he's currently doing the badge thing because it...exists and is something to do, and otherwise I don't have many plans for him. I'm down for both positive and negative CR here - though I admit that he doesn't have nearly enough negative for my liking and I'd like to fix that.

Name + Journal + Series: Tokiomi Tohsaka (pretentions) • Fate/Zero
Location Currently in Vermilion for the tournament, but will be returning to Johto afterwards! I...think...GUYS WHAT ARE WE DOING
Blurb: Outwardly a classy bastard, though this time the exterior actually isn't hiding something insane - he's just a tremendous social failure. He has a bit of a hard time reading social cues and is trying to adjust to Johto in general not allowing him to be a shut-in, which he pretty much was back in Fuyuki City. He at least has worked out enough to be a proper gentleman, however, though he's incredibly immature beneath all of it and his emotional processing of things is pretty much what you'd expect from your average nine-year-old.
Plans: No plans that are set in stone, though I definitely would love just about any CR with him that people might want to throw. I should probably note that he has a much easier time responding via text than he does video or voice, however; again, he has a lot of problems reading social cues and as such his interest is more easily caught and kept by things that he doesn't have to struggle through to respond to. He's a bit better about it in person, and he will reply to video or voice sometimes; he's just...incredibly introverted. orz

Name + Journal + Series: GLaDOS (neurotoxined) • Portal
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: A not-entirely-sane AI whose hobbies are designing weapons and trying to kill her test subjects. She's currently working for Team Rocket's science division, far more interested in testing things than going on raids or doing missions; she just returned to Johto recently, and doesn't have her memories of her previous stay. She's very sarcastic and has a tendency to be more than a bit snide; her logic is also...not entirely earth logic, simply due to it being, well, Aperture Science logic.
Plans: Well, again, she just got here, so any and all CR would be great; again, she has a major thing for weapons and design, and she has a functioning knowledge of mechanics, so she's another that will likely be wanting to do ALL THE SCIENCE!!! - but otherwise, she just kind of does whatever and is a royal shut-in. Positive and negative CR welcome, though I would be interested to see what positive CR I could get with her in the name of getting her, you know, out of the base.

[lightningbearer]

So Sion's been meaning to actually meet up and talk with Kayneth in person for a while now, and since they're both in Vermillion at the moment now would be the perfect time... would Tokiomi be interested in tagging along? It would involve discussion of research into legendary pokemon and the distinct possibility of going onto a tangent of magic nerdery, especially if Ryner's there too. ^_^

Location Violet city
Blurb: He's a socially awkward director of the world a large company called the Academy though he'll only tell you that he works for them as an engineer-- which is technically true. He's also got a lot of parental issues BUT HEY what FF character isn't dysfunctional in some way?
Plans: UMMM not for Hope, no. I've been busy trying to work on an app for a new character so I haven't been making any proper plans for him. Besides, he's already gotten the Zephyr badge and traversed through the Ruins so he's pretty much done everything he wants to do in Violet. He'll be sticking around for a little longer though, so you can catch him there if you want.

What you're looking for: Everythiiing. Enemies, friendships, danger, challenges... I'm always up for fun things for Riku to do.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Riku (islandshore) • Kingdom Hearts
Location Vermilion for the tourny! He's staying for the entire duration, in part because he's made finals in two of the cups and also because... well, it's the first time anything exciting's happened in Kanto in a while. Gotta love all the life in town right now.
Blurb: Snarky teenager who got tired of his small world and wanted to build a raft to get away from it all. He's spent two years in the game and has since mellowed slightly, but he still retains his snarky streak, competitive nature, and a bit of his ego. It's just a bit watered down since his early days, when he went so far as to diss Gym Leaders left and right. :'| He also runs a Training Center over in Celadon because he's secretly become a Pokénerd. I MEAN--
Plans: Right now, I just plan on having him enjoy the rest of the tourny, win or lose. If nothing else, it's been a learning experience for him, and he'll take what he's learned through his battles and apply it to further training. Other than that, I don't have a whole lot planned for him. He's mostly going to stick with his friends, keep his business going, and train. The guy really needs more spice in his life, so I'm definitely open to ideas!

I also apped Bowser from Super Mario as a Rocket, so if he gets in, I'm more than open to shenanigans. :)

[enjoymyatelier]

Given that Kayneth is well on his way to becoming a Smogon-style trainer, I think it would be fun to keep these two talking about their attempts at IC minmaxing, hahaha. He's also a competitive ass, so that could be fun for CR as well...

...also can I just say I fuckin' love you for apping Bowser, oh my god

What you're looking for: I am always open to sciencebroing and negative

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Kayneth Archibald El-Melloi (enjoymyatelier) • Fate/Zero
Location Vermillion City, where he'll be for the length of the tournament. After that, he'll probably head back to Johto and go to Azalea.
Blurb: Smug elitist jerk mage prodigy who makes really dumb faces and has never faced difficulty in life before showing up in Johto. Was a professor of sorts in his home world, so he's interested in figuring out how this place works. He's capable of coming off alright, but don't get him talking about class or caring about other people or whatever... or maybe do, since welp negative CR. (Or maybe positive CR, if your character would agree with his shithead views on how aristocracy is awesome and the common person is shit.) Might be a little more openly dickish because he's grumpy about losing the tournament, but.
Plans: Once he gets back to Johto he'll be heading to Azalea to get back on the Gym Battle wagon and to check out Pokeballs in Azalea. I intend to canon update him in the far future, but that probably won't be another... uh... six months or so. Once winter hits properly he'll probably be staying in one place, though I'm not sure where that will be...

...also, as another plan type thing for eligible (and ineligible) batchelorettes: Kayneth is traveling partners with Armstrong, and Typhie and I have been planning for Armstrong to try and play matchmaker and find him a lady friend! It is very unlikely that this will lead to an actual ship since Kayneth's hung up on some chick who isn't currently in the game and doesn't love him and... well... he's Kayneth, but gosh darnit is Armstrong going to try!

Blurb: Traumatized young girl, had to murder her own twin sister and was attacked by ghosts in a village of neverending night for about a week. You know, the usual.
Plans: GOD IDEK. She's just traveling with Spencer Reid, trying to train her pokemon and get some badges because she has nothing else to do. She needs something to focus on or else she might lose it, so this is giving her something to do. I'd love to get her more friends to drag her out of her shell and talk to people on her own!

[usedlaserbeam]

HELLO.

I think Mio and Yagyuu are just about the same age, and if he doesn't get some friends soon he's going to end up becoming a hermit himself, so...I can offer some shell-dragging? He's super classy and quite the gentleman so long as you're not playing tennis against him. o/

What you're looking for: Anything really. I’m always happy to have Cobra meet (and scream at) people. And the same, though it’s more friendly yelling than ranting and raving, goes for Gordon.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Cobra Commander (cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa) • G.I. Joe
Location Vermilion City!

Blurb: Cobra Commander is an easily angered, tantrum throwing, paranoid, snake themed megalomaniac who wants to rule the world. But for about every one success he has, there’s about ten thousand failures to balance it out, if not more.
Plans: He has some upcoming Rocket business with Kato, and that’s about it. Other than that, he’ll be hanging around Vermilion and complaining about the tournament for the foreseeable future. He’s sort of in a down period right now where he’s not actually planning any sort of mayhem so much as hating on various people while doing his Rocket job.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Gordon Cole (canthearyou) • Twin Peaks

Location Saffron City! But taking the occasional train ride to Goldenrod.
Blurb: GORDON IS LOUD.

Seriously. Loud FBI agent with a major hearing problem who is still good at his job.

Plans: Not much at the moment. He’s splitting his time between Saffron and Goldenrod, but not up to anything major. Just sort of watching the Gear and learning about how things work here. Planning on having his starter get a hold of his Gear once it evolves because Loudreds are just as loud, if not worse than Gordon, and he’ll be heading over to Albert’s Science Farm for Thanksgiving. Pretty much open to anything here!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Envy (exeggutorhead) • Fullmetal Alchemist (2003)
Location Vermillion for at least the duration of the tournament
Blurb: Envy is a former homunculus villain now turned con-man/thief, and while he's not nearly as violent as he used to be after spending two years in magical friendship land, he still enjoys causing trouble and generally being smug. He's at least acting happy more often than not lately, and if something sounds like it'll be fun or interesting he'll be there, but he can get very snappish and sulk with the best of them when he's in a bad mood.
Plans: No set plans for after the tournament! But I'll be hopefully posting up a thread for him and tagging around in that mingle log if anyone would be interested in some shenanigans there.

What you're looking for: I'm good with pretty much anything, but I'd love to have someone to try to needle their way in and get Ryner to open up further, since, well, he always needs needling. It's a challenge, admittedly, but hey, we all love challenges here, right?

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Ryner Lute (tearsofademon) • The Legend of the Legendary Heroes
Location Vermillion City, kind of lazing about while his best friend goes and participates in the tournament. Probably returning to Johto after... but that's really up to Sion, Ryner doesn't care all that much.
Blurb: Brilliant mage who is super super lazy and would love to just sleep fifty hours a day but no one will ever let him. Has Issues and can be pretty closed off to people, though character development over the past couple years has opened him up a little. Has been doing quite a bit of research on Legendary Pokémon, though he tries to keep this fairly quiet. Oh, and don't ask him how he met the newest member of his menagerie (ie Marian), he's not talking about it. ^^;
Plans: Aside from tentative Thanksgiving plans (depends on how schedules play out) and Ryner's Day (the day Rose claimed as his birthday, don't ask) coming up on the 26th, I'm open to just about anything. Ryner really just hangs out with Sion most of the time and pokes his nose into old storybooks and whatever old papers he can dig up whenever he's not loudly complaining about things being a pain or trying to fit yet another nap into his day. He can use other things in his life too. :)

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Meiko "Menma" Honma (seetheflower) • AnoHana
Location On their way for Goldenrod, so around the first cave zone with ZUBATS.
Blurb: Menma is one of the happiest people you could ever imagine. She's actually the ghost of a little girl who died years ago due to drowning in a river, but she turned human here! In canon, her close group of friends helped her go to heaven, so I took her from that canon point. She also looks like a 15-16 years old girl, but has the attitude and characteristics of her younger self- the little girl she used to be before she died. She calls all the creatures here Nokemon, because she's made a habit out of it after playing the similar videogames in her world.
Plans: First of all, I plan to get her a bike so she can travel faster. She has yet to get any badge, but that should be fixed when I get more accustomed to this game. And of course she needs to hoard all the cute Nokemon. Also going to probably create an army of Zubats for the hell of it.

What you're looking for: I tend to just run with whatever's thrown my way, but I DO so enjoy things that have potential for serious character development

Characters
Name + Journal + Series: Sion (dreamsofahero) • Legend of the Legendary Heroes
Location Vermillion City
Blurb: A young king who's full of ideals and dark secrets.
Plans: Sion is still working on researching legends in Johto and Kanto for the most part, but he's also getting frustrated at the way Team Rocket's been parading around causing trouble and may want to do something about that one of these days.

Name + Journal + Series: Geddoe (lightningbearer) • Suikoden III
Location Vermillion City
Blurb: Taciturn old mercenary who happens to be immortal and not really happy about it.
Plans: He needs to meet more people, otherwise mostly just doing his old man mercenary thing for now, I guess.

What you're looking for: Friendships, family CR, enemy CR...anything!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Luke Triton (hintcoinplz) • Professor Layton
Location Goldenrod
Blurb: Luke is a friendly 15-year-old boy, who hopes to grow up to be a proper gentleman. He's very curious, always asking questions, and has a strong love of mysteries and puzzles. He's hitting that awkward stage in his life where he's starting to notice care and is becoming very self-aware about his appearance.
Plans: Right now he's about to be hospitalized and have most of his Pokemon stolen, which is going to set him back a lot as a trainer and give him a lot of self-doubt. He'll need some people to help him work through it? ;n;

[faketime]

So Luke, I hear you need more people to make life complicated for you.

Although I'm not quite sure how much Luke knows, which is why I'm here, haha. I figure CR totally needs to happen here.

Name: Kev
Timezone: EST
Contact: AIM: Kain44, mazingergo
What you're looking for: Comedic antics, quirky friendships, ship teasing or just teasing... Basically I prefer the light side but I can roll with anything you toss my way!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Hayate The combat_butler
Location Goldenrod! Living with Lucifer + a handful of idols in a rented house.
Blurb: A friendly, comical and rather girly butler who can do pretty much anything! Comes from a BROKE AS HELL household, has parental and abandonment issues, and can range from the most polite and adorable boy you'll know, to the most blunt and cynical. Tries his best to keep positive and joking due to shounen gag manga roots, yet can dramatically swing in to depression or just dramatics in general if he reads the mood wrong. Also, he's currently dating Yayoi Takatsuki.

Plans: Nothing outstanding right now! Hayate is just going through the motions. His birthday just passed on Sunday, but he kept quiet about it this time around. I have quite a few few silly post ideas for him in the back burner, but he should have one up this coming weekend, then another for fourth wall... Might be something special for fourth wall! Who can say!!

Although he could really use some guys around his age to chum around with, as he is low on the bro count like always.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Azusa Miura (idlewanderlust) • The iDOLM@STER
Location Goldenrod!
Blurb: 22 year old big sis spacey/air-headed idol. Comes complete with ZERO sense of direction and a love of fortune telling and finding her ~*~destined person~*~. She's very very pretty and kind of gives off a relaxing aura on those around her. This is especially effective on Pokemon. Also has a weakness for sweets, cafes and from time to time alcohol.

Plans: Idol things! The remaining idols are all together at last, so it's time to do all kinds of idol related things! Expect many posts about breaking into the idol life in the coming months. Also she could really use drinking buddies? Could just use some more friends from guys and gals close to her age as well!

and HEY DO YOU HAVE A UNIQUE POKEMON? If so, you should go reply to this post!

Whether it's a rare type that nobody else has, a shiny, or just one you think has a really fleshed out and unique personality, go share them! I'd like to try and make posts like that a regularish thing for them, and if you have a really neat Pokemon, perhaps your character can join in on a future post!

[islandshore]

Man, I just wanna say that that post was super cool. C: Riku may have to share some of his rarer beasties like his Toxicroak at some point because those froggies are severely underrated in-game.

Name: Rizu
Timezone: Mountain Standard (MST)
Contact: RizuK01 is the best way to contact me, but PMing Sasuke's account works too!
What you're looking for: Anything and everything. So long as the characters have chemistry, whether it's good or bad, I'm all for it.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Sasuke Uchiha (beforethedarkness) • Naruto
Location Vermillion City for the tournament, will be heading back to Celadon City after.
Blurb: Introverted ninja, last survivor of his clan. Incredibly proud and has lone-wolf tendencies to the point of seeming-idiocy. Cold and reserved, but can be brought to trust others with the right care (though it might take months, at the least).
Plans: Starting to go around Kanto for the badges soon, then Johto afterwards. Not that it'll be fast, but Sasuke could use some company (depending on who is already joining him and despite anything he might say).

He could also use some TLC in the mingle log in Vermillion City right now. Just saying.

[for_realsies]

She needs to make comments about his duckbutt hair.

...Because she has a thing about hair.

[grapecape]

MUN
Name: Holo
Timezone: EST
Contact: holofluff
What you're looking for: Anything, mainly long-term bonds that could be formed/bolstered in person. Ondorus is a small-town guy used to having a very small, very close support network, and while he is of the opinion that his Pokemon team will do just fine for that, that doesn't work so well in RP. Ondorus has great potential as a mentor/elder figure, so if you have a character that could use something like that, that's easy. I'd also like older friends for him who he could view more as equals; active types that he can play the more passive, balancing-presence role for are easy targets in this respect.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Ondorus (grapecape) • Rune Factory
Location Being a lazy bum in Violet, keeping an ear to the network and writing down everything he knows about Johto.
Blurb: Chill, bookwormy, ponderous dude who loves learning and is very people-wise. Back home, he's not human, but the last-born member of a monster race that's down to their last two living specimens. Has spent his whole centuries-long life in the same small corner of a desert, tending to and absorbing information from travelers. Pretty much treats Pokemon like people, because he's part of the monster club himself. Really likes juice.
Plans: I'm slow as hell tagging right now for academic reasons, but I have two things lined up in the undetermined future:
- Some drama from one member of his team. Zaidra the Sandslash is getting increasingly frustrated with Ondorus' doormatty tendencies; she wants a trainer that expects a lot from her and will challenge her, and purpledude's liberal use of kid gloves is slowly driving her nuts. She's scheduled to have a tantrum on the feed sometime near the end of the tournament, while watching one of the matches on the inn TV, and I think it'd be interesting if in the future Ondorus got some neg CR that Zaidra ended up flouncing to.

- The idea babbled about here. Basically, after seeing his fill of Johto, Ondorus settling down to run some kind of inn or campground or rest stop on one of the routes somewhere (possibly 29/30? newbie support center?), which would also serve as a covert PGC base/meeting place/whatever.

More immediately, Ondorus will soon be picking up and heading for...somewhere that's not Violet. As much as he loves the place...

MUN
Name: Mab
Timezone: EST
Contact: PM, thank you :3
What you're looking for: I'm into anything, really! But I really like CR that engage Reid on an emotional level as well as an intellectual level, so friends, ships, mentors, and things like that are extra love. I actually really like ship-teasing, since the poor boy has no clue what to do with stuff like that and it's fun to write him flailing.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Spencer Reid (leftinbasketforfbi) • Criminal Minds
Location Violet City
Blurb: Awkward (but kind and brave) genius who profiles serial killers for a living, can play magic tricks, and also has serious baggage and looks like Bambi when he's sad.
Plans: I don't have specific plans right now. He's out to catch one of every type of Pokemon and research Ghost- and Psychic-types, though.

Come at me!

[lightningbearer]

When the tournament's over and Sion heads back to Johto area, he REALLY wants to try to get more in touch with Spencer. Spencer INTRIGUES him. >_>

[3_butterflies]

MUN
Name: Melissa
Timezone: EST i think
Contact: KawaiiUsagi33(aim), Melcat33@aol.com (e-mail)
What you're looking for: Anything and everything! Since Flutters is my main muse now, I want it all!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Fluttershy (3_butterflies) • My Little Pony : Friendship Is Magic
Location Goldenrod.
Blurb: Used to be a flying Pegasus pony. Is now a very shy pink haired human girl. She's uber awkward talking to people, but LOVES Pokemon/Animals, and is instantly bubbly and cheery when it comes to them. She can even communicate with Pokemon, understanding what they say. She's very sweet and kind, willing to do whatever it takes to help someone else, no matter how she'll be affected. On the downside, she's gullible and a bit of a coward, especially spooked and bullied. But when it comes to protecting pokemon and her friends, she will raise her voice and tell you to KNOCK IT OFF.
Plans: Fluttershy is finally going to start trying to actively breed her mons, thanks to the bugs getting along, and her Ditto. (I just keep forgetting to make eggs posts because I have the memory of a goldfish.) She mostly plans to follow Twilight on her quest to gain all the badges. She'll probably offer her Pokemon talking/therapy sessions again, as she likes to help others.

[whateveryoueatliveitspart]

These two need to talk some more. Apollo could use some non-Pokémon friends, and they seem to be heading that way.

I need a character here who I don't have to pull teeth with to get to talk to people.

[determinator]

MUN
Name: Redd
Timezone: EST, but I'm usually around at weird hours, so...
Contact: pokerap
What you're looking for: I love everything! I know it's a really generic answer, but it's also the truth. :| A lot of my characters just need CR in general, be it positive or negative. So come at me, guys.

...Also I'm sorry for the TL;DR ahead.

Characters
Name + Journal + Series: Frank Archer (determinator) • Fullmetal Alchemist (2003 anime)
Location: Vermillion City, though he'll be travelling back to Johto because what is leaving your native country
Blurb: Archer is a sadistic, war-mongering jerk who cares very little about anyone except himself. And maybe Kimblee because they come as a set. He likes to think he's as refined and classy as Kimblee, but let's be real, he's a little rageball just waiting to go into fits of shrieking histrionics. Basically he'd be in the middle of a "Cobra-to-Kimblee" scale of classiness and fits of rage. He's very interested in war, training his Pokémon, breeding crazy-ass egg moves onto Pokémon, and did I mention war? He fucking loves war.
Plans: Archer is doing a Team Rocket Thing at the end of this month/beginning of December, as well as another Team Rocket Thing later in December! No spoilers though~ But he's pretty easy to catch otherwise and we can always work something out! I'm especially looking for more negative CR for Archer, since he doesn't have enough enemies. ...But positive CR would be nice since right now he has... Kimblee...... orz

Name + Journal + Series: Isaac McDougal (glaciates) • Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Location: Vermillion, though he'll be roaming Kanto after the tournament is over!
Blurb: Isaac is the biggest social failure ever. He has difficulty keeping up conversations with people and usually just wants to die halfway through discussing anything. When he's not social-failing, he's being an idealistic rebel and getting himself into far more trouble than he's worth. He's interested in taking down Team Rocket through any means necessary and if someone doesn't stop him he'll probably try to go undercover you have no idea how terrible an idea this is.
Plans: Isaac and Emmy are going to team up to get the badges in Kanto! And explore!! Other than that I don't have any plans though. I'd really like to get Isaac more CR of any sort, especially with the PGC members! He's a bit of a recluse and isn't very fond of reaching out to new people, but it's pretty easy to catch his interest!

Name + Journal + Series: Ryuunosuke Uryuu (greatestcool) • Fate/Zero
Location: Violet, soon to return to Goldenrod
Blurb: Ryuunosuke is basically a teenager in an adult's body. He's a slave to whatever he deems "cool", which in canon involves murdering women and children, but he's toned it down a bit in Route so he really only cares about harming people and pulling off Team Rocket raids. He doesn't come across as openly crazy most of the time though, in fact he seems rather nice and funny most of the time!
Plans: Ryuunosuke's going to be doing a Team Rocket Thing near the end of the tournament, so look out for that! \o/ Otherwise he's doing jackshit and could really use some motivation. It's difficult to make enemies with him, but if you can manage it I'd love it! Otherwise I'd love to find someone for him to bro it up with, since he's kind of bff-less here in Johto.

Name + Journal + Series: Logan (decrees) • Fable
Location Vermillion, soon to be heading back and exploring Johto with Kimblee
Blurb: Logan is the (constantly stressed) King of Albion who is essentially a tyrant for a good reason. He's very fond of his country and his people and will go out of his way to do everything he can to ensure the survival of Albion. Here in Johto that means he's trying to keep Reaver and Page safe orz. He's interested in meeting other rulers and comparing worlds!
Plans: He's going to be travelling with Kimblee for awhile to get some more Gym Badges, then meeting up with Reaver in Olivine. I'd really love to get him CR with other kings/rulers/what have you! He just needs CR in general since he's also kind of a shut-in orz.

Name + Journal + Series: Wheatley (brilliantideas) • Portal
Location Goldenrod, though he'll be heading to Saffron in a couple of weeks
Blurb: A moron. I mean... totally not a moron. He's a little... special... Wheatley's been in Johto before and he's glad to be back; he's a member of Team Rocket again and he's going to be doing all the science!!! He's very fond of that and of tormenting GLaDOS and of course, not being called a moron.
Plans: He's going to meet up with Descole in Saffron and do science!!! over there in a couple of weeks (after he gets a job.... orz). Otherwise he's wide open! I'd really love to get him CR with other Rockets or scientists! Anyone who loves science should come to him and he'll tell you all about his ideas to make Steelix float using Magnemites. :|

Timezone: GMT+1
Contact: plurk: psychelocks, AIM: vertigo monologue, PMs
What you're looking for: Both positive and negative CR are welcome! I absolutely love friendship, as well as friendly rivalry and full-out conflict. Come at me bros.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Crow Hogan (darkenedgales) • Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's
Location Vermillion City
Blurb: Bright, energetic and confident, there is very little that could bring Crow down. He may be blunt to the point of acting like a jerk sometimes, but underneath that he's a really kind and gentle guy with a soft spot for kids especially. While a bit rash, he's generally a good person with a strong sense of what's right and what's wrong (which somehow does not equal obeying the law), as well as loyalty to his friends.
Plans: Honestly? I'M NOT SURE. It depends on a lot of other factors, such as the tournament outcome, a certain TR member getting in touch with him, etc. He's in Vermillion until the end of tournament for sure, but after that... well, I'd sure want him to get down to Kanto badge challenge at some point; there might be some more Sigilyph shenanigans in the future, but not anytime soon. Basically, most things I have in mind for him can be tweaked to fit whatever comes, so I'm open to any ideas!

[grapecape]

I totally missed replying to the first Sigilyph post because of dumb things but if a second happens Ondorus will be on that. discrimination is bad k

idk if it'd lead to anything long-term but yeah

What you're looking for: Pretty much whatever! Positive or negative, any kind of interesting CR is enough to ping me. Heather could use some more friends, but enemies are welcome too!
That said, I'm on unofficial hiatus at the moment, so plotting for the future would be appreciated.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Heather Mason (foolishwren) • Silent Hill
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Sort of recovering from the fallout of a Very Bad Summer, Heather's been largely keeping to herself lately. On a good day, though, she's a cheerful, if somewhat rough-around-the-edges young woman. She's been in Johto for a long time and seen all the ups and downs. Can be blunt, harsh, and moody, but there's a heart of gold in there somewhere.
Plans: Aside from her slow, ongoing trek towards rebuilding some friendships she singlehandedly damaged, not much! Right now Heather is less outgoing than normal and mainly focusing on spending time with her 'family' (Harry, Henry, and her friends Crow and Kaito) and making amends to others.
I'm open to ideas!

[remainingtwin]

Horror game protags should stick together, right?? I liked their first conversation, so I'd def. be interested in throwing them together sometime again, once you're back in the swing of things!

[ortion]

MUN
Name: Seto
Timezone: CST
Contact: My plurk is Arystar or you can PM any of my characters' journals.
What you're looking for: Pretty much everything and anything. I'll go into detail for each character in their sections.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Larry Butz (failures) • Ace Attorney
Location Vermilion City for the tourney
Blurb: Larry's your typical comic relief, girl-crazy, failure of a character. He's mellowed out quite a bit over his two years here, but he's never short on silly moments and general idiocy. He's known for his unusual bad luck streak, even though his heart is usually in the right place.
Plans: After the tournament, he's probably going to hit the Kanto trail and begin the badge challenge there. That's really all I have planned for him!

For CR, I'd like to find some more friends for him. People he can bro out with and whatnot. I'd also like to find a rival or two, someone he can race to try to get all the Kanto badges first. If...anyone else is just starting on the Kanto badges too. I just want to get him fired up and determined about stuff.

Name + Journal + Series: Dist the Rose (ortion) • Tales of the Abyss
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Fabulous, egotistical and vengeful mad scientist bent on bringing a dead person back to life. Well...that last part is kind of a moot point in the Pokemon world, but details. His field is machinery and he dabbles in genetics for making replicas. He's also really obnoxious and it's no wonder he hardly has any friends.
Plans: At the moment he's just being a shut-in at the Rocket base working on his own little project on evolving items. I still have to fully plan that thing out. He's also going to eventually catch wind of recent disappearances and be...conflicted about them. Pestering Jade is always on the list of plans too!

For CR, uh...anything, really. People to go in his revenge journal are appreciated, for one. Negative CR with this guy is always fun since he's so easy to set off. And as always, I would like to scoop up all the science/tehnology people because talking ~science~ is wonderful.

Name + Journal + Series: Dimitri Allen (faketime) • Professor Layton
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Vengeful mad scientist bent on saving a person from dying in the past VIA time travel. What do you mean that sounds familiar. He's a lot more calm and collected compared to Dist and it's really hard to truly piss him off. When you're willing to spend ten years constructing a perfect "future" replica of a city and kidnap scientists to work on a time machine in secret, you pretty much have the patience of a saint. You are also really obsessed and over-invested and that's kinda creepy.
Plans: Getting him adjusted to the setting is my first concern since he did not take his arrival well at all. I'm going to put up a more accessible network post for him soon so things can get going.

For CR, since he just got here, I'd love anything and everything. He's not the chattiest person ever and he won't disclose that much info about himself but I can see him holding conversations without much trouble. He's pinged by most science discussion and puzzles (because what Layton character isn't) but if anyone else here is into time travel, he can talk for hours about that.

And there is always cast confusion to look forward to...haha...

[scientificflair]

...once Descole is back in Johto.

We need all of the CR.

What you're looking for: Anything! But mainly rivals and mentor/parental figures for Atsuro. But I'm still up for friendships as well, especially people who manage to get him to talk about DEMON CONTROL AW YEAH his route.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Atsuro Kihara (babel_hacker) • Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor
Location Vermilion City
Blurb: A 17 year old aspiring programmer and proud otaku, Atsuro's known for being the best and loyal bro in canon (as the only guy who never ditch the party) and advocates authorised demon control for society's benefit. In Route, he's now 19 years old and an experienced trainer.
Plans: After watching the tournament and challenging Surge, Atsuro will start his Kanto journey for their badges and basically fanboying at everything. CHILDHOOD. Oh and shelling out the cash for TMs for his team, too.
