ON HOENN, canons are characters of a particular fame or significance in regards to the setting. Some canon none-player characters (NPCs) such as the professor and champion may open up to members depending on plot development and player character development. Remember, your character does not need to hold a canon position to affect the world. It is up to you to take the initiative to contribute to the setting with your roleplaying.[break][break]

SOME RULES:[break]

• you are only allowed a maximum of two canon characters and even then, be aware others may want the opportunity to play one.
[break]

• if you would like to reserve a canon when there are open slots, contact shiv to discuss before posting in this thread.
[break]

• canon reservations will last two weeks from the date of posting.
[break]

• there is a one post-per-week posting requirement from all canon slots. if this requirement is not fulfilled, your spot may be taken over by another player.
[break]

• purchase canon slots ($200) from the site shop. you may use pokedollars from other character accounts as long as they are your own.
[break]

• you may post below to reserve a canon spot, but you must have the 200 pokedollars already in your possession.

Below is the list of NPCs that may be referenced, alluded to, or used in the setting.[break][break]

PLAYER-OWNED LEAGUE CANONS are in the list below. The League acts like a democracy where its actions are defined by the collective agreement of its representatives. Head scientists act as region professors and aim to achieve breakthroughs in academia or technology. The council ranks above all else and has the power to make decisions as they see fit, as long as all of the council members agree. Gym leaders help run their respective cities, but not all cities have a gym leader. The Elite Four will eventually be implemented. Stay tuned.[break][break]

For gym leader spots, you may change the preexisting city location to another city that is available. Likewise, make sure you pick a typing or theme that is not already taken by anyone else if you are applying for a gym leader position. Lastly, gym leaders are expected to take battles for their badges! Remember, these are not battles of personal pride, but of education and infrastructure. In other words, gym leaders are there to help train newer generations of trainers while also progressing the pokemon league system.[break][break]

If you have assumed a gym leader position, please message shiv with the image of your badge, the name of your badge, and create a gym thread in this board: link.[break][break]

PLAYER-OWNED ROCKET CANONS are in the list below. The core motive of Team Rocket is to steal and make a profit. They are thieves by nature and their organization reflects as such, but their rise to power is monumental and unprecedented. One day it just happened; a whistle started it all.[break][break]

Team Rocket is an organized crime syndicate where there is a distinct hierarchy, but freedom for the members to pursue their own interests as long as they align with the organization. Underbosses answer directly to the boss and act as faces of the organization while the boss works shadily in the shadows. Like the League, Team Rocket also houses head scientists for technological breakthroughs and study. The Four Beasts are a title given to powerful Rocket trainers (akin to that of the elite four). Originally, they were trainers who possessed instrumental roles for overthrowing Kanto; however, over time, new faces have assumed their positions.[break][break]

OCCASIONALLY, A HUMAN CATCHES A LEGENDARY POKEMON'S EYE, and such recognition is rewarded with an appointment to be that legend's avatar. Although many believe that these storied nominations are exclusive to fairy tales and myth, the recent conflict in Hoenn has awakened these creatures to intimately align themselves with humans once more. With Hoenn's future hanging in the balance, several legendary Pokemon have placed their chess pieces on the board with their avatars.[break][break]

An avatar is a representative of the legendary who may acquire supernatural boons and meta-site perks. Not every legendary has an avatar. Furthermore, this position is not one you can apply to. Staff provide this plot opportunity to specific characters and players based on participation, IC-development, event rewards and/or more.[break][break]
