MUN
Name: Redd
Timezone: EST
Contact: pokerap or commenting here!
What you're looking for: It's come to my attention that my characters have a terrible problem keeping friends. This might be because they're antisocial douches, but who knows. I'd really like to build more positive relationships with my characters... except Archer, who needs as many rivals as possible.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Frank Archer (determinator) • Fullmetal Alchemist
Location Mahogany Town, I think? He tends to go back and forth between Mahogany and Goldenrod.
Blurb: Archer is a member of Team Rocket here in Johto. He's the one behind the attack on Falkner and he specializes in utilizing Psychic-types. He's very cold and cruel, if not downright sadistic. He has a lot of issues to deal with, but he tends to hide everything behind that douchey smirk. If you're looking for someone to piss off, he's an easy target - though fair warning, he holds grudges forever.
Plans: I need to double check some things with the mods, but if everything works out, he'll be trying to terrorize the network again! Otherwise he's pretty open; I have some distant plans with him, but there's nothing that's set in stone just yet.

Name + Journal + Series: Isaac McDougal (glaciates) • Fullmetal Alchemist
Location En route to the Ice Path
Blurb: A former soldier with a huge grudge against the military and everyone in it, Isaac is usually very stoic and serious. He tends to come off as either cold or downright strange, simply because he's the world's biggest social failure. He loves crazy battling and sparring against his own Pokémon and like the rest of my characters, he's crazy in his own special way. :|
Plans: I have absolutely nothing planned for Isaac! I would love to get him more positive CR, but making enemies out of Team Rocket members would be awesome too!

Name + Journal + Series: Ryuunosuke Uryuu (greatestcool) • Fate/Zero
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Back home he was a serial killer who focused on creating the most beautiful works of art with his victims. He obviously can't do that here, but Ryuunosuke's still a sadistic little douche who loves what he does. He's a slave to rule of cool and will do whatever he can to be as cool as possible. He's also a member of Team Rocket and loves it.
Plans: I don't have anything set in stone for him either! Ryuunosuke is difficult to get negative CR with, simply because he doesn't really overreact to anything. He just shrugs and moves on. But, if we could manage to get negative CR, that would be amazing. Otherwise, I'd love for him to team up with some of the newer Rocket recruits!

Name + Journal + Series: Logan (decrees) • Fable
Location Olivine City, I think?
Blurb: The King of Albion and a ruthless tyrant, Logan does everything he can to protect his country. He fully believes in "the ends justify the means" and has done quite a lot to harm his country in the name of making money to build an army to protect it. He's kind of crazy due to an encounter he had with darkness incarnate, but when he's not freaking out about that, he's linefacing really hard and judging everyone's lifestyles. He's also a member of Team Rocket, but he doesn't care at all about the organization.
Plans: Logan is going to get the rest of the Gym Badges in Johto, but after that I don't have anything planned! This is a running theme. :| Anyway, Logan could use all sorts of CR, though he doesn't have anyone he actively loathes in Johto, so that could be interesting!

Oh right, and I'm still on hiatus until the end of the month, so tags will be slow.

[dressofheaven]

... There is not a single one of your characters who I don't want to toss my crazy little girl at.

What you're looking for: A little bit of everything!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Eridan mMpora (roemance) • Homestuck
Location Cerulean City
Blurb: Genocidal alien, entitled douchebag. Pretty much. :|
Plans: I have had to take hiatus and still dont have my computer back so i have been super slow this months. over february though i want to get him out more, but i welcome ANYTHING that people want to do. Eridan isnt doing much, he is focusing on collecting badges and flipping between almost apologizing for what he did in canon and going NOPE NOT SORRY when people piss him off. ; ;

[timelymaid]

his birthday will be magnificent

Timezone: EST
Contact: rabbitfeathers, AIM is bridgitkiido, PMs work too
What you're looking for: Anything is fine with me! But I'm especially looking to work at long-lasting positive CR, since Ryner... keeps... losing his... ahahaha... um...

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Ryner Lute (tearsofademon) • The Legend of the Legendary Heroes
Location Ecruteak City, with Sion Astal
Blurb: Lazy mage, heavy emphasis on lazy. He would seriously sleep fifty hours a day if anyone would let him, and is constantly grumpy because no one ever does. Has Issues stemming from having been treated as a cursed monster ever since he can remember, though Route's setting, Route's people, and his therapy animals menagerie of 'mons have been helping over the past couple years. He's a nice guy, and smarter than he acts (in fact he's kind of a nerd sometimes), but it takes a lot to get him to actually do anything about any particular cause. Currently starting to actually look slightly more seriously at this breeding thing (mostly due to being constantly pushed), but don't expect him to start having more frequent batches any time soon...
Plans: He'll be attending BreederCon in February, and his next batch of eggs is scheduled for March as usual, but aside from that, nothing is set in stone. He's mostly just doing research in Ecruteak with Sion.

[enjoymyatelier]

MUN
Name: Ran
Timezone: EST
Contact: AIM: TungstenSamurai, RandomProphet
What you're looking for: Sciencebros! Negative CR! Armstrong and Tokiomi trying to hook ladies (and dudes) up with Kayneth! I WANT IT ALL. I should note that I'll be a little slower than usual because of school starting up/personal stuff, but I definitely will get to things. In order. I'm also interested in developing his Pokemon some.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Kayneth Archibald El-Melloi (enjoymyatelier) • Fate/Zero
Location Wintering in Goldenrod. FUCK COLD, OKAY...
Blurb: Smug elitist jerk mage prodigy who makes really dumb faces and has never faced difficulty in life before showing up in Johto, where he cannot use his fancy mage powers and is extremely butthurt about it. Was a professor of sorts in his home world, so he's interested in figuring out how this place works (because it's challenging and... fun...). 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 got dumped by his fiancee twice and it's not entirely explained away by his useless replacement servant... and now his useless replacement servant is here, even though he doesn't know yet... he will be so mad. So mad.
Plans: Same as usual-canon update happening forever from now, and prior to that, Armstrong and Tokiomi will be trying to hook him up with single ladies (...and dudes, in Armstrong's case...). Aside from that, he'll be staying in Goldenrod for the winter, so if you want to make plans to have our characters run into each other there, that'll be cool! He might be going to Breedercon but he hasn't actually bred anything yet because he's being really anal about leveling all his Pokemon up and making sure they have a bunch of good moves, so I'm not sure if he'd be eligible...

[grapecape]

if this thread fails to produce side-eye they can arrange to meet in person or something

[likewatson]

MUN
Name: Heather
Timezone: EST
Contact: Reachable via PM or plurk! (heatherberry)
What you're looking for: FRANDS. But any and all CR, positive or negative, is welcome!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Harry Truman (likewatson) • Twin Peaks
Location The Saffron City Justice Farm

Blurb: Harry's time in Route thus far has changed him a little bit, but he remains a mild-mannered small town sheriff 4 lyfe. He's friendly and happy to talk to just about anyone — most conversations involving him will include a lot of questions, though, because a) he's a curious dude and this world is still very new to him and b) LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING. He's in a pretty good mood at the moment (after getting over a bomb of canon-inflicted angst), so if you want to pal around with him, now's a good time! Just don't talk to him about relationship problems.

Plans: Nothing solid, mostly because there are lots of possibilities afoot. What he really needs is some direction, which I think will either manifest in him getting a job at the local Pokémon Center, or him focusing his efforts on figuring out this breeding thing — or both! He'll be on the road with the Justice Farm Family Band crew once they go on their road trip, but other than that, he's wide open for plotting!

As an addendum, I'd really like for him to get involved with the PGC. It's likely he'll be getting info about that from Cooper soon.

[usedconfusion]

If he's going to be in the PGC he and Ron can actually interact outside of the comms!

[botspeaksalot]

MUN
Name: Otis.

Contact: PMs or humbugger.
What you're looking for: ANYTHING. Maybe more negative CR for my boys?

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III (newberktown) • How to Train Your Dragon.
Location JUSTICE FARM in Saffron City.
Blurb: Worst Viking Ever with an obsession with dragons and also electricity now. These days he is happier due to having a supportive family system and maybe??? a girlfriend?
Plans: He's going on a road trip! Not too sure when or what else his future holds, but it does mean getting some new pokemon and badges.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Philip (botspeaksalot) • Kamen Rider W.
Location New Bark Town since he just arrived.
Blurb: Amnesiac boy with Google for a brain (though his ability to access the knowledge has been taken away by Pokemon World.) He gains and loses interests quickly and likes to avoid talking about his personal problems.
Plans: He's heading on the ferry over to Pallet Town and will reluctantly be doing the Kanto Journey while hoping to investigate while everyone was brought here since...he doesn't like what he's hearing so far. Having friends who are able to ping his interest would be good!

[doitrockapella]

so obsession with electricity basically means someday he's going to make a post raving about how he has harnessed the power of mighty thor, right

[combat_butler]

MUN
Name: Kev!
Timezone: EST 4 lyfe
Contact: AIM: Kain44, plurk: mazingergo. I'm fastest reached on plurk, but I'm usually lurking on aim most nights.
What you're looking for: Anything, really! I love funny and fluffy/light hearted comedic antics more than anything, but friendships and ship teasing and bromances and the whole nine yards are a grand ol' time.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Hayate the combat_butler
Location Goldenrod! Staying at the Breeding Center.
Blurb: A friendly, comical and rather girly butler who can do pretty much anything! Comes from a BROKE AS HELL roots, 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.
Plans: Post involving Overfiend later this week in immediate future plans. Other than that, just spending time chilling out in Goldenrod doing butlery things around the Breeding Center. Will be taking part in the Breeder Con running some games or some such. He'll also likely send out a bit of homemade chocolate come Valentine's, despite being a guy... Force of habit.

CR wise however, like always, I am looking for Hayate to get more guy friends his age he can hang out with... He has like no guys close to his age he's close to!! Send help.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Azusa Miura (idlewanderlust) • The iDOLM@STER
Location Goldenrod! ... also staying at the Breeding Center.
Blurb: 22 year old big sis spacey/air-headed idoru. 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: Plans include: A idol hosted quiz show about Pokemon stuff, where if people answer questions right they can win items! A idol cooking show! A concert someday!! IDOL THINGS.

I am also in search of the elusive Guy Near Her Age who would be willing to suffer through drinking with her or some light hearted flirting. These may go hand in hand.

[ghostytrainer]

I am not sure how old Hayate is, but John'll be 15 in a couple of months and is always up for more bros. Plus somebody mentioned Hayate to him last month and how it was weird that they hadn't met before since they've both been here for a long time and apparently both talk a lot. I'm canon blind, but just going off that blurb you wrote there, Hayate and John seem to have a similar temperament so they might hit it off pretty well?

So if that's CR you'd be interested in, I am totally up for it! They'll both be at the breeding con so it might be a good place to make it happen. :D

[hoperaider]

MUN
Name: Ryuuto
Timezone: EST
Contact: redknightdistrict (Plurk) and felledjustice (AIM)
What you're looking for: I'm looking for anything and everything with my characters! I'm really not all that picky. :)

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Jake English (hoperaider) • Homestuck
Location Violet City
Blurb: Cheerful, optimistic, oblivious, fairly book-smart, old timey...Jake's a sack of adorable, basically, with a hint of accidental jerk.
Plans: Currently, Jake's dealing with love triangle issues, which he's hoping to resolve soonish. There's also the Breeder's Con he's going to with his awesome travel buddies! Otherwise, not much is set in stone.

Name + Journal + Series: Mom Lalonde (matini) • Homestuck
Location Viridian Forest
Blurb: She's a classy lady who has moments of silliness. Also, she's in a constant state of inebriation. Beware her mad science.
Plans: Some things are planned for Feb/March, but otherwise the only thing set in stone is getting to Pewter City and maybe make it to the Breeder's Con in Kanto. Also, doing girly things with Valeria, like shopping. :3 She'll never say no to drinking buddies if you're fun, btw.

[doitrockapella]

CARMEN NEEDS TO MEET ALL YOUR FRIENDS, JAKE.

Also Zack says go on a date with Aradia.

[onelevelnicer]

MUN
Name: Sire
Timezone: EST
Contact: AIM - spiralcadence
What you're looking for: Whatever comes along! Friendships. Frenemies. Rivals. Give me anything.

Character
Name: Karkat Vantas(usedshooshpap) • Homestuck
Location Vermillion
Blurb: Karkat is a crabby sort of guy with a foul mouth. He means well and all, but things can easily irritate him. Despite how he acts, he still tries to make sure his friends are doing all right. He's also been in Route for a little while, so he's mellowed some.
Plans: There are two things that I know that I am planning with Karkat. The first is his elite badges in Kanto. Now the second is him working towards some sort of Pokébaby siting sort of thing. A ranch to take care of pokémon while their trainers are away? Something like that anyway.

Character
Name: Sore (islandsky) • Kingdom Hearts
Location Probably back in Kanto?
Blurb: Sora is friendly, pretty outgoing, and forever optimistic. He can also be extremely competitive and a little dense. Friends are super important and he'd do anything for them.
Plans: No real concrete plans here, ahahahaha.

Character
Name: Kaoru Hitachiin (onelevelnicer) • OHSHC
Location New Bark, but probably taking a ferry to Pallet
Blurb: Impish little twin that loves fashion and literature. He's far more reserved than his brother and understands/relates to others just a little better. Kaoru displays a friendly face almost at all times, though he can be a little bit of a whiner or arrogant.
Plans: DOWN THE ROAD I HOPE TO START BEAUTY CONTESTS. But that's much later, yeap.

[sweettalker]

So these two new arrivals need to meet. I'm just sayin'. Piper's mother is the goddess of beauty and love, annnnnd Piper is absolutely not interested in the beauty part (or fashion for that matter). I'm kind of curious how she and Kaoru would get on as friends.

[lightningbearer]

Name: AC
Timezone: CST
Contact: ACDragonMaster on AIM; PMing either character journal also
What you're looking for: Aaaaanything! I'm on hiatus for now as I move but will happily backtag things/plot for future shenanigans!

Characters
Name + Journal + Series: Sion Astal (dreamsofahero) • The Legend of the Legendary Heroes
Location Ecruteak
Blurb: A young king who wants nothing more than to make the world a better place, and who's willing to sacrifice just about anything to do it. He's friendly and charismatic but actually has pretty poor self-worth under it all, although he really DOES genuinely care at heart.
Plans: Mostly he's just researching/plotting things with Ryner. I WOULD like him to actually learn a bit more about how the Pokegear works (like programming and such) in the near future; it'd give him something more to do. XD

Name + Journal + Series: Geddoe (lightningbearer) • Suikoden III
Location Western Johto/Safari Zone
Blurb: Stoic, gruff-looking mercenary who doesn't like dealing with people but is kind of really an idealist at heart.
Plans: Not really anything in particular! Just getting him to meet more people/take on more oddball mercenary jobs or such, really.

Momo Hinamori and Lust

[tendered]

MUN
Name: Muffin
Timezone: -8 PST
Contact: g.o.d.a.i.m.e (or strikingthorn if your aim can't handle periods) - AIM.
bouquets
What you're looking for: Friendship and rivals for both Lust and Momo. Negative CR with Lust and Momo would be pretty acceptable too!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Momo (tendered) • BLEACH
Location Goldenrod
Blurb: Overly naive sweet girl who makes all decisions entirely off of emotions. She's kinda unstable because of Aizen's more than mind control on her, but she's very kindhearted. Unfortunately, she can get worked up here and there and she's kinda... scary when that happens.
Plans: Momo is now working with the Anti-Rocket organization as a spy. I'd be all down for her to get her espionage on and eventually for her to be discovered! Also, an evil crew that she can kinda... float around would be sweet too.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Lust (licentious) • Fullmetal Alchemist
Location Traveling to Vermillion again.
Blurb: Misanthrope homunculus seeks fit, wealthy attractive man who wants to build some serious good publicity as she, from the shadows tries to do some messed up stuff. Of course, without daddy to pay her way, it's kinda hard so now she just kinda shows up to snark while running some illegal importation schemes in Vermillon/does research in a lab.
Plans: I do want her to show off a villainous side more, but she's kinda subtle. So maybe anyone that needs a back up villain would be nice! Also, maybe sometime in the far far future, someone to finally reveal that, uh, is kinda very evil would be nice too.

They both have posts put up recently so, if you wanna hop on that and backtag it (or tag it in Momo's case) that's totally fine o/!

Contact: AIM: blutundeisenpreussen, plurk blutundeisen
What you're looking for: Lots of things! I'm fairly new here, so I'm totally open to CR of all kinds~

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Tenten (usedswift) • Naruto (pre-timeskip)
Location Celadon City
Blurb: Tenten is a minor character from relatively early in the anime/manga series Naruto; she's a ninja who wants to prove that she's just as strong as any male. She's more socially adept than she might seem at first glance, there's just some things that she just Doesn't Get. Her main thing is weapons, and she'll happily tell you all about how much she misses them.
Plans: No major plans, though I'd love to get her more CR of any kind! As she gets more experience, Pokémon battles are definitely a thing I'd like to at some point! But really, anything and everything is cool with me, feel free to hit me up!

[when_turks_fly]

Terrible bias aside, these two ladies need to meet like yesterday. I think they'd get along really well. I mean, really, Turk meets ninja? Ninja meets Turk? And they're both missing their weapons. I'd say they've got some common ground to stand on and Tenten falls into a beneficial age range, too, as Val's got a soft spot for kids and teens. I am now going to dissolve into a mess of, "Can we? Can we? Can we? Can we?"

[anabottleofcola]

MUN
Name: Blue
Timezone: U.S. Pacific
Contact: PM is best - either to character accounts or to bluedabadee!
What you're looking for: Absolutely anything that sticks is its own kind of treat. However, I'd be especially glad to find more CR for Bobbery.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Adm. Bobbery (anabottleofcola) • Super Mario/Paper Mario
Location: Route 32.
Blurb: Lawful Good, former admiral, renowned sailor/navigator/veteran adventurer in his home port, widower, and living bomb - although of course he doesn't look it here, though my personal headcanon says that he sounds a bit like Sean Connery.
Plans: I don't have anything especially set in stone for him - beyond the fact that he'll probably take part in the PFC to keep his team well-trained and well-challenged and dog Bowser to whatever extent his mun finds acceptable. I can see him also wanting to get actively involved against Team Rocket as a whole in time, and I also plan on him picking up a Slowking, Electrode, Dusclops/Dusknoir, Whiscash, and Wailord over time.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Clementine (willrememberthis) • The Walking Dead
Location: Violet City, with Laguna Loire.
Blurb: A peaceful and contemplative nine-year old girl who lived idyllically in a suburb in Georgia, until the zombie apocalypse hit while her parents were on her vacation. She proceeded to find herself informally adopted by one Lee Everett, taken on the road to find her parents, watch a constantly-shifting-due-to-unfortunate-happenings dysfunctional family unite around her and Lee, learn to fire a gun, and be one of the few people in their group to make it back out of their travel destination alive.
Plans: Not especially - so far, I'm enjoying seeing how things go for Clemendoll as they will~

[ragnarok_strike]

Raz would be facinated by Bobbery. So, yes. That'll happen.

[islandshore]

MUN
Name: Mega
Timezone: PST
Contact: AIM - derpsisms
Plurk - Dorked
What you're looking for: ANYTHING. More pos CR and possible rivalries for Riku, some threats to deal with maybe, I'm open to most ideas. For Bowser, I'd love for him to get more enemies and obnoxious rival types. Maybe positive CR, but who would even tolerate his doofishness?

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Riku (islandshore) • Kingdom Hearts
Location Celadon Training Center.
Blurb: Once a cocky teen with a desire to see new sights, Riku's become quite established in the Pokémon world over the last three years. He's faced all the gyms, seen the best of both regions, and now runs a Training Center in Kanto. When he's not hanging around his business, he's off traveling with his friends and team for various reasons. He's also a member of the PGC.

Generally speaking, he's a pretty laid back guy with a snarky sense of humor, and while he still has his occasional reckless moments, he's a loyal friend through and through.
Plans: Nothing big right now. He may end up going with Sora and Sasuke to do a Kanto badge run, and he's now participating in the Pokémon Fight Club. He will have a big batch of death eggs coming soon, some of which he'll sell at the breeding cons. He may also swing by Olivine to check on Minnie's house-- it really depends on what his travelmates wanna do.

Nothing's totally set in stone. Long term plans, though, include figuring out what to do about Terror and Quake. If there's anyone who wouldn't mind helping with that, that might be a good springboard for CR. He's also looking for more employees at his business, so if your char is interested, there's always an opportunity! The TC also has advertising across both regions.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Bowser (kingbowser) • Super Mario
Location He's alternating between Goldenrod and the nearby cities to nab some badges and just get out for a bit. Will probs be hitting Saffron soon to take down Sabrina and Erika, gwa ha ha ha!
Blurb: Classic video game villain. Bowser is loud, stubborn, very rash, and thinks he's the most awesome thing to grace existence. While often boneheaded, he does have his sinister and oddly perceptive moments when it comes to villainy. But mostly he comes across as a big, hammy baddy with an over the top laugh.
Plans: Other than a potential plot, nothing big. He's mostly focusing on toughening up his team so that he can take the region by storm.

In the future, he's going to build a working replica of the Koopa Clown Car (mod-approved)... mostly for show, since it won't be as practical as a flying Pokémon. He also plans to develop Cinnabar Volcano into an evil lair, also mod-approved.

[beforethedarkness]

You know these two will have to clash if Bowser comes to Celadon while Sasuke is still there.

[cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa]

MUN
Name: Steve
Timezone:Arizona/Mountain
Contact: opticblast | Messaging Cobra or Gordon’s journal

What you're looking for: General CR for Gordon.

As for Cobra, I’m always open to more negative CR, as well as any additional Rocket CR. I definitely don’t have a problem with him gaining more enemies, allies, or at least people who pretend to be allies.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Cobra Commander (cobraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa) • G.I. Joe
Location Vermilion City
Blurb: Easily angered, hissing, Saturday morning cartoon villain. Thinks neon colors and ridiculous code names are awesome.
Plans: Cobra’s not up to anything major at the moment. He just pulled off a charity scam in late December, so he’s currently working on figuring out what to do with some of the money he kept. Since he’s not planning the imminent destruction of anything, his schedule’s pretty open.

Name + Journal + Series: Gordon Cole (canthearyou) • Twin Peaks
Location Saffron City, I think.
Blurb: Really loud FBI agent. Has a tendency to mishear things in pretty much every conversation. Probably going to attempt to befriend all the federal agent and law enforcement people in Johto/Kanto eventually.
Plans: Gordon’s going to be making an inquiry to the network soon about crime and penalties for it. Just for informational purposes probably. Other than that, there’s a possible trip with his cast and friends to somewhere. Think that’s about it on Gordon’s end.

[saxsongs]

Hey Cobra, any spectacular plans that need revealing for the world. It's been quiet for a while-- No? That's too bad.

a.k.a Hi, I miss threading with you.

Timezone: GTM+2/+3
Contact: ignatiusknight
What you're looking for: Anything and everything! I love all kinds of interactions.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Shiraishi Kuranosuke (backtobasics) • The Prince of Tennis
Location Olivine City
Blurb: He's a serious, yet rather relaxed teenager who plays tennis far more seriously than he should. It's said that he's also slightly too serious for his own age. Shiraishi takes responsibilities seriously and trains himself into exhaustion - especially if he loses. The word "perfect" doesn't always only describe his tennis moves. He also has a lousy sense of humour.
Plans: Plans of moving to Kanto to study grass Pokémon in Celadon city are at hand.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Takuto Kira (itsudemoissho) • Full Moon wo Sagashite
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Takuto is an honest and outspoken person who always tries his best. He's determined to protect Mitsuki and others he cares about, which is why he's trying to become stronger every day. He's a sweet guy even his temper might sometimes scare people out.
Plans: Currently working on a belated concert and training his Pokémon to face the rest of the gyms. Might start traveling to the nearest ones this month.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Ren Jinguji (saxsongs) • Uta no Prince-sama: Maji Love 1000%
Location Goldenrod City - should change soon, though
Blurb: Your friendly neighbourhood feminist Casanova. Ren was born to love women and be nice to them - meanwhile he can be quite a jerk to guys if he so wishes. Currently he's also kind of a spy in Team Rocket, so any information he sees he takes note of and reports to miss Farron if they seem important. He's a nice guy in Team Rocket and he tries to keep an act inside the organization.
Plans: Right now he's planning on getting Haruka Nanami's starters' microchip out, to get him out of Team Rocket, which means he'll be chased by the police for a few weeks. Though he'll most likely do this while he has a mask.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Kira Yamato (replantsflowers) • Gundam SEED Destiny
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Quiet, calm and observant. Kira is a hard working person who wants to protect Lacus and his friends, but also try to help others any way he can. He's quite shy on first meetings, but if you talk with him enough he'll start to act more naturally. He's a good friend.
Plans: He's going to be joining the PGC - or at least talk about joining it at some point. Otherwise he's training to become stronger every day.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Tsukiyomi Ikuto (blacklynx) • Shugo Chara!
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Mysterious and cold on pretty much on the outside. Only opens up to Utau and Amu and even then it's most likely little since oh boy Team Rocket behind his back. He's actually a nice guys if you get a chance to know him, but it's really hard to get to know him.
Plans: Just arrived so no major plans. He's an unhappy kitty.

[dressofheaven]

I'd say I'm sorry for Ilya taking such blatant advantage of Ren's kindness...

But I don't like to lie.

MUN
Name: Fukuro
Timezone:PST
Contact: Usually PM is the best way for me but through Skype (dumbfob44) or AIM (redballoonplant) also works!
What you're looking for: Most thing I'm looking for is just some friendship because friendship is magic. Anything works however!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Misaki Asou (brokenmemories) • Fatal Frame
Location: Goldenrod (She's not really gonna go anywhere atm since she's gonna be waiting for Temeraire)
Blurb: Without saying too much about canon, Misaki's a young adult who's still dealing with the aftershock of recovering her childhood memories, as well as dealing with the death of her best friend. She has a bunch of issues to resolve but tends to act like everything is alright. She's a nice gal but has a tendency to act like a bitch on some occasions. Also, don't try to deny the existence of ghosts cause this girl has seen them her entire life.
Plans: I've been wanting Misaki to eventually get used to the concept of ghost pokemon for some time so she and her Banette would finally get along more often, as well as evolving her Snorunt. I would like her to make more friends too, probably to act as some kind of "replacement Madoka/Sakuya" to her. Yes, that sounds really shallow but she's done stuff like this before so :|

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Mayu Amakura (togetherforever) • Fatal Frame
Location: Cherrygrove or Saffron, I am not sure. She'll eventually be where ever Mio will be.
Blurb: Mayu is a young girl who spent a week in a haunted village with her twin sister after being lured by a crimson butterfly. She has a twisted obsession for her sister and getting possessed by a spirit with similar feelings happened to further intensify those feelings. She happened to kill her sister before coming to Johto when Mio refused to kill her herself. Yes, this contradicts the current Mio's timeline shhh.
Plans: I plan to have Mayu continue to be as clingy to Mio as possible, with some secret loathing for anyone Mio happens to be close with (this especially includes you Reid). Anyone may comment on Mayu's apparent obsession but Mayu'll attempt to calmly laugh that off. I do want her to have some kind breakdown eventually between Mio and Spencer but whatever happens will depend on the matter of the situation (for example if Mio happens to mention her crush on Spencer, that's pretty much a guaranteed breakdown which may either include some running away or worst case scenario, some strangling going on).
Also, it would be nice if Mayu happened to have some friends outside of Mio. She's kind of socially awkward as well as being super clingy once she's close to you so if anyone's able to handle that kind of stuff, I say go for it.

[doitrockapella]

I don't know if it's precisely what you're looking for, but Carmen tends to have a lot of Thoughts (and sometimes Feelings) about teenage girls and their relative levels of kickassery, so if you ever want Mayu...I guess called on her clinginess and encouraged to stand up for herself and become an independent person in her own right, that's something Carmen would cheerfully oblige on?

As it is, she's probably sort of keeping an eye on the twins and Reid anyway just because Reid's asked her for advice before on raising teenage girls, so it's kind of relevant to her interests.

MUN
Name: Nea
Timezone: Always on at weird hours for a girl from Europe
Contact: plurk is baranohanabira - just give me a heads up before you add me, yes?
What you're looking for: Anything, really, when am I not looking for anything? Specifics? Ummmm. Winry and Mitsuki always want more little sibling figures and friends, Winry could always use more mechanic friends and friends who are skilled with cooking etc. Mitsuki idols/singers/etc stars and ...Utau.... idk, magical girls, singers, idols, rockets, she's busy with big brother atm - but that's kind of weird relationships where she acts more like a big sister at least later in canon, on/off on her canon point because wow hi crazy fangirl attacks.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Winry Rockbell (usedwrench) • Fullmetal Alchemist
Location Olivine, same house with Danny and Shiraishi, I think
Blurb: that extremely friendly housewife girl, who tries to get along with everyone ...until you do something stupid, then she'll hit you with one of her tools (usually wrench) and / or yells at you for some time. Then it's like calm after storm again. She's nice, has a habit of going crazy whenever she sees machines or talks about them, and she'll fix any machines etc for you.
Plans: ...She'll stay in Olivine as long as I keep forgetting to make the last changes into her roster and then she'll finally go to Cianwood to get that badge. <.<. Skarmories anyone? I think Winry needs one. Then she could get one and actually start making an example of automail, because why not.

Name + Journal + Series: Mitsuki Kooyama (lovechronicle) • Full Moon wo Sagashite
Location Goldenrod
Blurb: that girl who will love just about anyone and calls her killers "angels" if she thinks they are like angels. Singing, she does it alot, it's her real passion and canon says she loves fairy tales too. Even more friendly than Winry, because she'll just yell and won't hit you with anything to make you faint.
Plans: She needs more plans and more friends and more everything, like more activity from her player. >.<.; Buuuut, yes, as Anna said on her comment, they might start traveling this month, certainly in next month.

Name + Journal + Series: Hoshina Utau (meikyuubutterfly) • Shugo Chara!
Location Wherever Ikuto goes *_* ... Goldenrod, actually!
Blurb: The magical girl who drives kids into despair with her songs... Except here she's just your devilish, ice princess who is still not the most loyal Rocket, but she can act like she's completely loyal to them while she's telling things to non!rockets behind the team's back. Don't let her rudeness fool you, she does have her angelic and sweet side too (...quite literally actually), but when a girl needs to save the life of her brother (who she loves a liiiiiittle too much at this canon point), then she'll do anything to hide her weaknesses. Loves challenges and competition. It's really hard to get to know her at this canon point, because she tends to push everyone away and is determined to do everything alone. ...Mostly, anyways. Antisocial, rude, bitch, actually loves singing but shhh, it's a secret.
Plans: Making Ren jealous and me as a player hit my head to the wall and screaming, because of Utau's love for Ikuto
Getting her more social links /life /whatever would be a good thing, if she pays attention to anything now when Ikuto is here... But he'll be in the TR training, so she'll have time for everyone else too, hopefully. >.<.

I think we're in for more CR, darling. How about that.

MUN
Name: Ieva
Timezone: US Central
Contact: AIM: ievavkasku or Plurk: ievakasku
What you're looking for: EVERYTHING. I enjoy both positive and negative CR! But I do have a particular weakness for unusual friendships.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Envy (exeggutorhead) • Fullmetal Alchemist (2003)
Location As of today he is on an SS Anne cruise with France, and after that he'll be in Vermillion I guess?
Blurb: Envy is a villain-since-turned-con-man! He's mellowed out quite a bit from how he was in canon, but is still a jerk that likes to mess with people and cause trouble. But if you can manage to get him to like you, he'll be a loyal less-of-a-jerk.
Plans: I don't have any set in stone plans for him at the moment! He is currently kind of angrydepressed on account of his best friend disappearing, but after he gets back from this cruise he'll probably be at least acting more normal.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Temeraire (divinewind) • Temeraire
Location Left Violet and on the way to Goldenrod
Blurb: Temeraire is normally a giant dragon from the Napoleonic Wars. He is a well-spoken, usually polite (if blunt) sweetheart. In Johto he is still figuring out all these future and human things like thumbs, electricity, and not eating whole cows. He also doesn't have a whole lot of world experience. But if you're even remotely nice, he'll be a great friend (and if you're really rude to him he holds petty grudges).
Plans: He's going to meet up with Misaki in Goldenrod! Other than that, no plans as of now.

I STILL NEED NERDY DRAGON IN MY LIFE

I AM SORRY I HAVE FAILED YOU UP TO THIS POINT

MUN
Name: Jon
Timezone: EST
Contact: AIM/Plurk: StNowhere
What you're looking for: Applejack needs some more friends! She's more or less hung around with her castmates. She needs people to drag her into doing other things too!

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Applejack (buckyouup) • My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
Location Goldenrod, heading to Saffron and Celadon, before going back to Johto to make for Cianwood.
Blurb: Applejack is hard working, stubborn, and strong; the quintessential country girl, with a thick southern accent, comparable to that of the Missouri Ozarks. While her ego isn't particularly inflated, she has a staggering amount of pride, often feeling that she has to handle her problems by herself. Still, she's a fiercely loyal friend, and would give you the shirt off her back, should the situation call for it. Oh, she's also an orange pony trapped in a human body. She sucks at being human.
Plans: For the next couple weeks, Applejack and company will be in Saffron and Celadon so that Applejack can learn how to use Fly. There, she'll also be meeting up with old (and maybe new?) friends, including Riku, who is going to deal her her first ever battle loss. So, expect lots of sulking for a couple days. Then, it will be back to Johto and Goldenrod, to make way to Cianwood, collecting badges and pokemon along the way. Please, meet up with her at any point during this adventure!

She also plans on joining the Guardian Corps, when Twilight and her think she's strong enough. She knows nothing about them, except that they exist, and Twilight is a member. Having come into the game with her dear friend Fluttershy having been poisoned by Bowser, she has a white-hot hatred for Team Rocket, and is ready to deal some payback.

[tapestodiane]

Hey, if AJ's hitting Saffron, her and Coop should meet up!

Character

Location Justice Farm! (aka Saffron City.)
Blurb: Pretty NCIS agent who can and will kick your ass if you do something to deserve it. Has some hefty trauma backing her up, but does she let that get her down FUCK NO. She'll talk to pretty much anyone, but if you do something to mess with her or the people she cares about she'll remember your face and...well. :| get unpleasant about it.
Plans: There shall be road trippin'. Otherwise, not much.

[foolishwren]

What you're looking for: Anything really! More friendships, parental relationships, romantic interests, and/or negative CR.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Luke Triton (hintcoinplz) • Professor Layton
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: Luke is polite young man with a deep love of puzzles. Right now he's entering that awkward stage where he isn't a little boy anymore and is slowing turning into an awkward, young gentleman.
Plans: Right now Luke's retired from Pokemon training after an attack in November that caused him to lose most of his Pokemon. I'd like for someone to eventually force him out of retirement. Also maybe looking for some adult CR to kind of guide him along because two teens living by themselves in a big house never ends well.

[anabottleofcola]

Bobbery could tell a tale about being forced out of retirement brought on by a devastating loss.

Bu-u-ut even without jumping there, permission to give tagging Luke with Bobbery a shot in the future?

[syochan]

MUN
Name: Manda (kari)
Timezone: EST
Contact: mandawrae
What you're looking for: Shou could use more cross-canon CR / friendships / platonic relationships in general. I'm not interested in cross-canon shippy stuff though unless it's discussed with me first, please.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Shou Kurusu (syochan) • Uta no Prince-sama
Location Goldenrod City
Blurb: He comes from the "Love Ending" of his route in Utapri: Repeat, and pre-Utapri: Debut. He was recovering in the hospital after a certain surgery just before waking up in Route. He has a twin brother named Kaoru that's so far only shown up in the games, but that Kaoru has something of a brother complex towards him. Considers Ryuuya Hyuuga to be his "idol" after the other saved him as a kid. He falls in love with Haruka Nanami like the rest of Starish and other guys who have their own routes in Utapri. Starish is a band he's in which contains the main guys of Utapri, by the way. Regarding his personality he's a tsundere type that's also on the notably short side and is often regarded as "cute", and has even been forced to crossdress because of it (and was actually really good at it). Naturally, good at singing and playing the violin, though he secretly feels Natsuki bests him in that department re: violin. He likes to consider himself an "ouji-sama" (prince) to the point where he appoints "servants" at times. Hates Natsuki's cooking because it's lethal. In Route, he's a Breeder.
Plans: Currently he's become aware of Haruka, Ren, and Masato being in Team Rocket during this log. They're planning to get Haruka out of Team Rocket and possibly the city soon.

[ragnarok_strike]

MUN
Name: Kururu
Timezone: Australian Eastern Daylight Time. So +11. I'm normally in +10, though.
Contact: AIM @ Vinciolol, plurk @ nurse_nakayama_sama, here and PM is fine!
What you're looking for: Anything and everything is awesome. Laguna would like more kids to befriend and become his, as well as more buddies around his own age who he can just talk to about stuff. Raz? Well, he'll really wanna meet people who've been here for a little, to learn about their experiences in this land during the times he wasn't here.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Laguna Loire (ragnarok_strike) • Final Fantasy VIII
Location Violet City.
Blurb: Derp who becomes president. Part of Dads Who Abandon Their Kids By Accident Club. Actually, though, he likes kids. Talks from the heart. Has too many eggs. Friend to all, especially those who want it. Tends to cramp up when nervous.
Plans: On Australia Day, I'm gonna put up a post with him remembering 012 stuff. After that, he's going after Ushio - and going to get lost around Union Cave. His sense of direction is terrible.
...Also, he's kind of teaching his Pokemon Triple Triad. How would people feel if he started to teach others - with Pokemon-themed hand/pokemon-made cards?


Character
Name + Journal + Series: Raz (razputin) • Psychonauts
Location New Bark Town - but not for long!
Blurb: What do you get when you have a psychic kid who runs away from the circus and is also awesome and adorable? Raz, that's who. He's a 11-year-old secret agent and hero of his game. Has a wicked sense of humour. Cheerful and :3
Plans: I planned before he came in - he'll be going to the breeding center to reclaim some of his old Pokemon, and he'll also be very curious about Kanto - thus, Raz is probably going to be off to Kanto.

[itsjustdust]

...I want to thread with Laguna some day. That was a deciding point on joining this place, yessss. And if that card game happens Obito will want to learn it.

[bestofthebest]

MUN
Name: Paul
Timezone: Pacific Standard Time
Contact: AIM: Herc061881 or messaging Rainbow's journal
What you're looking for: She's gained quite a few new friends -besides her pony pals!- already, but a little competition for her wouldn't hurt. And maybe some ship teases thrown her way that she'll shrug off as 'sappy' moments.

Character
Name + Journal + Series: Rainbow Dash (bestofthebest) • My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic
Location Goldenrod, soon to be going to Kanto's Saffron and Celadon before making a round trip to Johto for Olivine and Cianwood
Blurb: Rainbow Dash is a confident athlete, dedicated to whatever task or job she's assigned to and she's the first -or one of the first- to volunteer. She loves being known as a hero, but does her best not to brag too much about her heroic deeds. On the flip side, her ego is self-inflated at times since she's quite competitive, believing that she's the best and will do what it takes to win. She's also lazy and can literally sleep anywhere. She's very loyal to her friends, and won't abandon them for any reason. Plus, she's also a blue Pegasus pony who has wings and rainbow-colored mane/hair.
Plans: For the next few weeks stretching into next month, Rainbow Dash and co. will be in Saffron and Celadon City training her Pokemon to high levels in the hopes of challenging Gym Leaders in the future. Once getting to Olivine with her friends, she hopes to find a Pokemon to complete her team of 12 Pokemon - and much to her disbelief, she'll find Corsola. She wants to eventually join the Pokemon Guardian Corps, when Twilight believes she can take on Team Rocket in an even fashion. The only things she knows about the Corps as of now, is that Twilight and her friend Riku are members. Since her fillyhood friend Fluttershy was poisoned by Bowser, who she discovered sent out those poisoned cookies over the holiday season, she wants some payback.
