  • 1. Pokemon home[break]
    I've begun to include a lot of characters into the pokemon home plot. Now that she has the organization set up melody has begun to try and loop in as many people as she can to set up the island. Currently there is a lot of work to be done that multiple members are working on such as Freya assisting with the infrastructure of the island with her dragons and using her experience with the dragon sanctuary to help guide home. is currently working on having rangers become involved to see if they can get further support and in addition to that imbedding the amnesty program they are working on in pokemon home by having people get service hours or working for home to keep them out of trouble. In addition Melody has begun to get more personal people involved such as , , and potentially to be the people who actually bond with the Pokรฉmon and help handle them and their recovery.

    I think in the future I may want to work on a plot of possibly rocket attempting to come in and mess with the island for something but that's not gonna happen just yet hehe

  • 2. Elite 4 duties[break]
    This plot is threads related to Melody's duties as an elite 4 member. So far besides exploring mechanical kingdom and exploring ultra sea to see if she can learn things she's been pushing people to go for the gym circuit and taking a personal approach with each of her challengers. She has encouraged both and , and to start taking the gym circuit and connecting non-canons to some good first gym's she thinks they can challenge like Noah, Navy and even Josh. In addition she's also begun to take more actions as an elite 4 member for independently handling things she thinks are threats to the league. One such example is with her fellow member as she continues to grow worried with his brash and brazen actions. It begins to climax in our thread titled disappointment where Melody shows up after leaving father winter's AU where Melody learns that the RED ORB causes some nasty side effects and she tries to bring him in to have it removed. EXPEDITIOUSLY. In addition to that she's also talking to her boyfriend about the challenges he might face as a future Elite 4 member as well in something to lose! [break][break]

summarize 2 plots that are in-progress and being threaded:


  • 1. FORTREE GYM: BUSINESS, AS ALWAYS (and forevermore)[break]
    Challengers come and go through the halls of the Fortree Rescue & Treatment Sanctuary (a.k.a. the Fortree Gym), however things have been taking a ratherโ€ฆ dark turn as of late. All things considered, while he thought Fortree was unreachable by Team Rocketโ€™s influence, well, that all came crashing down the moment his ex, , shows up at the Gymโ€™s doorstep.[break][break]

    While initially, things were going fine, an abrupt turn happened and now the battle lines, the inevitable battle lines, have been drawn. He now knows that his ex-partner from long ago (from just before the time he was announced as Fortreeโ€™s Gym Leader, to give an approximate timeline) is part of Team Rocket, and the shaky โ€˜friendshipโ€™ they had after their break-up is not going to survive the encounter.[break][break]

    All this is happening in: windbloom.[break][break]

    Challenges that have been completed between then and now include:
    [attr="class","ynospace"][break]

    Challenges that are ongoing and being processed include:


  • 2. LEAGUE WORK, AND MORE QUESTIONS[break]
    The visits into the Ultra Deep Sea continue; and most of the times heโ€™s down there in the literal belly of the beast, wellโ€ฆ it doesnโ€™t help his anxiety one bit. Now that heโ€™s fully aware that theyโ€™re inside the belly of a literal monster that might suddenly just squirm and digest them, heโ€™s not too keen on visiting the place again; however science and necessity from the League deems it necessary for him to literally face his fears in the worst way possible.[break][break]

    Despite the multiple visits into the place, heโ€™s strengthened his connections with Miss as well as Miss , even offering the latter to meet outside of the situation theyโ€™d found themselves in, whittling away at mineral deposits to take back for further study.[break][break]

    Excursions that have been completed include:
    [attr="class","ynospace"][break]

    Additionally, now that the question of Dynamax spots had come up, he is on the side of the fence where this strange, โ€˜newโ€™ phenomenon should be studied first before just rushing into it all willy-nilly; because as a conservationist he also cares about Pokรฉmonโ€”seeing as he oversees the Sanctuaryโ€™s operations in Fortree alongside his Gym Leader duties as shown here as well as here.[break][break]

    (And then thereโ€™s the little surprise of him finding out through the gym leader chat much later that Miss Desiree, as well as Miss Elise have minor league gyms of their own.)[break][break]

    Now that the RKS simulations have opened for the League, he is also looking to resume the search for clues regarding his djinni companionโ€”heck, him and have agreed to run through the simulation as many times as needed, since theyโ€™re both looking for answers to the respective โ€˜secretsโ€™ that they have with them (Uxie for Hideo, not that Alex knows about it yet, and his very own Tornadus).


  • 3. CONNECTIONS DEEPEN, AND THE EVERYDAY LIFE[break]
    Despite his obvious affiliation with his froggy partner and love of his life , Alex here has strengthened his connection with Miss in particular especially in the aftermath of the alternate Galar happening and changing their outlook on the world in more ways than one.[break][break]

    Maybe there was something lingering from the time they were blasted into that alternate Galar, or maybe itโ€™s because she reminds him of one of his two sisters is why he would bend over as much as he can to help her outโ€”especially when is busy with other things taking up his time.[break][break]

    Hell, the moment heโ€™d been informed that she was kidnapped, he wasted no time to make the trip in her cousinโ€™s place and get her the hell out of where sheโ€™d been leftโ€”never mind if he intimidated a poor Team Rocket mook along the way with his angy angry angery Salamence.[break][break]

    They also have their own downtime moments too, with her teaching him about the Galarian Farfetchโ€™d variant that he finds absolutely hilarious, alongside with learning that there is actually a certain Pokรฉmon that is both Ice and Dragon-type (the poor thing).[break][break]

    Alex also made true on his promise to to meet outside of the interesting โ€˜situationโ€™ they previously found themselves in, and heโ€™s touring her around the Sanctuary, which is a nice and absolutely welcome change of pace from the time that they had first met each other in the Ultra Deep Sea.[break][break]

    Another old friend makes a reappearance in his life, none other than good olโ€™ , who gave him the rundown of what happened during BMI and had to deliver the not-so-savory news that the Megalopolans the โ€˜space cannibalsโ€™ have returned, and may be looking to encroach on Fortreeโ€™s borders due to proximity and location.[break][break]

    He is also finding it rather difficult to comprehend that his friend had been part of Team Rocket previously, however Alex just happens to be one of those people that takes whatever confession is thrown at them; comprehending and understanding what happened. The two friends actually talk about and make a postulated guess that miss is no longer of this world, all things consideredโ€”yet he will always be ready to help the other out at a momentโ€™s notice, big secrets aside.


  • any notes/comments: you know how it goes. itโ€™s the same grind, but with a new fruity twist! I hope that this is sufficient to pass your tastes and checks.

summarize 2 plots that are in-progress and being threaded:


  • 1. LEAGUE FALLOUT[break]
    Further exploration of the consequences of his actions which have led to falling out with various League individuals, and in turn has further pushed him toward being the League's outcast.[break][break]

    : In STAY WITH ME, he expresses vulnerability and his desire for her companionship only to be turned down. The rift between them is explored further in TILL FOREVER FALLS APART where she also confronts him about the blonde-haired woman () seen in his ranch the League mistook her for.[break][break]

    & : In JUDGE OF THE EARTH, he acts upon the desires of Groudon and attacks the core in Ultra Deep Sea against Navy's wishes and warnings, resulting in the death of a few of Navy's pokemon. Following that, he is confronted by Melody in DISAPPOINTMENT where she attacks him, attempting to restrain him long enough to "save him" from the RED SHARDS embedded in his flesh. Navy and Matias also shared a brief moment of goading and snide comments in the LEAGUE HOLIDAY PARTY.[break][break]

    : In DIGGING THROUGH DIRT, he is confronted by Paxton who has been assigned to keep watch over him following the events of THE GOLDEN ERA where Matias had officially been placed under League surveillance. They discuss Matias' involvement (or lack of) in the fall of Sootopolis, as well as his ongoing connection to .[break][break]

    : In EXTRACTION, he has an actual conversation with Kyle who continues to be his strongest tether to both sanity and to the League. They discuss the aftermath of what happened with as well as how best to approach the future.


  • 2. WHALING[break]
    Development of the historical conflict of Groudon vs Kyogre. Ever since receiving news of Kyogre being on the loose, he has been doing his best to track it around Hoenn and engaging with it where he can. He has also suggested that perhaps it is him that Kyogre hunts, and has used that assumption to mask his true intentions of wanting to kill it for good.[break][break]

    : In HOLY REVIVAL, Illeana pleads with him to avoid using Groudon as she fears the destruction the battle may cause. He shrugs off her concerns, stating that they would die if he didn't, and engages Kyogre on one of the water routes.[break][break]

    : In THE WORLD OUTSIDE, Greyson and Matias are tasked with fending off Kyogre on the shores of Mossdeep. In this thread, Matias tells Greyson that it is him Kyogre hunts, and also that he is Hoenn's best hope of survival.[break][break]

    : In UNTAMED SEA, Matias asks Elisabeth out to his boat on one of the water routes. It is later revealed that he had been tracking Kyogre and proceeds to engage in battle with it, expecting help from Elisabeth only to question why she isn't using Wo-Chien (and later Tapu Fini). The battle ends with him being overconfident as he toys with a tangled-up Kyogre only for it to break free. He avoids being crippled and TELEPORTS away, setting up the follow-up which is currently being explored in I LIVED.[break][break]

    : In TILL FOREVER FALLS APART, Eva briefly confronts Matias before telling him of Kyogre's movement. She requests his assistance which he so gladly gives, and the two seek out Kyogre as they attempt to neutralize it with Rayquaza and Groudon's help.


if an avatar, summarize how you've utilized[break]the legendary/avatarship for collaborative narrative:


  • 1. AVATARSHIP: GROUDON[break]
    While Groudon certainly plays a factor in the deterioration of Matias' mental state and sanity, he has recently come to terms with the fact that he uses it as an excuse to not have to control his emotions and desires, stating that his volatile nature is simply a byproduct of being Groudon's avatar.[break][break]

    This is revealed and explored in I LIVED with where Matias reveals how Groudon consistently speaks to him with orders only for him to defy them.[break][break]

    "groudon had told me to kill you. it tells me to kill you even now as we speak."[break][break]

    "but i have never wanted to kill you."
    [break]

    In the same thread, the two avatars discuss what it feels like to be bonded to their Gods, and also the differences in how they are communicated to.[break][break]

    For Groudon & Matias, the approach is far simpler and almost more primal. Only the basic desires and wants are communicated in the simplest terms: KILL. KILL HER. YOU LIAR. And never communicated in nuanced sentences or phrases.[break][break]

    They also discuss the separation between their thoughts and their Gods'. How does Matias know his thoughts are his own? He tells Elisabeth the following, but whether or not it's the truth is unclear:[break][break]

    "there's a difference. i don't think i can explain it even if i wanted to, but it's there, and it's enough for me to make that distinction."
    [break]

    But there will be consequences for his "disobedience", naturally, as their connection and agreement are built upon mutualism. Take that away and Matias becomes more of a liability than an asset to Groudon, which mirrors his relationship with the League.[break][break]

    The next few months will explore the fallout of failing to kill Kyogre over and over again, as well as any changes in their dynamic as Matias learns to become less dependent on Groudon.

NON-CANON AVATAR[break]AC TEMPLATE


DECEMBER 2023 NON-CANON AVATAR ACTIVITY CHECK

[break]

[attr="class","ynospace"]


4 ic posts for avatar character:


[attr="class","ynospace"]
  • TUMULT - Isaac seeks to understand both a scared child and a raging god as the seaside rages beneath him. Eris finds comfort in someone who both supports her unconditionally and knows when to hold her back.
  • DOUBT BY THE SEASIDE - Isaac understands the gravity of the promise he made to the champ, from the eyes of a fellow iconoclast. Navy realizes even the Lone Ranger doesn't always have to fly solo.
  • ISOLATION - Isaac and Baki confide their secrets in one another, despite neither knowing their shared pains until the truth comes out.
  • LOOK ALIKE [FW2] - Isaac sees his "perfect self" in the mirror, and realizes it's his scars that make him who he is today.


summarize how you've utilized[break]the avatarship for collaborative narrative:


  • 1. AVATARSHIP: LEGENDARY[break]
    For this first AC, most of Isaac's exploration of his avatarship has been self-driven. Before he can live up to the name of The Liberator, he needs to decide who The Liberator is. No matter how hard he tries, he can't help others until he helps himself. However, several key bonds with others have worked wonders to help him find himself, both with the League, Team Rocket, and that endless grey area that lurks beneath the war. Through it all, he stays true to who he has been both before and after Suicune's gifts, doing what he can where he can to help those that are important to him. As his sense of self continues to develop, and his understanding of both Suicune's gifts and the League's inner workings grows, he plans on using them to free the people of Hoenn from the chains strangling the life from them.[break][break]

    (This summary should cover everything! However, if anyone reading is curious about Isaac's story, or wants to skim over some quick specifics, I've written up some more in-depth examples of how everything's played out below.)[break][break]

    Suicune came to Isaac at a crossroads. He was at the lowest point in his life; evicted dramatically from Rocket, forced to endure the slaughter of five of his teammates, and dangerously close to bleeding out right there on the forest floor. With Suicune's help, Isaac did what he did best; bounce back and keep moving forward. But with his direction no longer clear, what is forward anymore? This, moreso than anything, is the question that follows Isaac these days. Who is he? Why is he here? Where does he fit in? What is he fighting for? [break](Relevant threads: The End of the Beginning, Determination)[break][break]

    and are certainly setting their sights high. Nomi views him from the perspective of one similarly blessed. To her, they've been marked for a greater destiny, and their continued growth and safety within their factions of choice is essential to save the world. Howard's view, from one down below, is a touch more cynical. He also sees Isaac as a great hero, but as one who should freely use the weak and the witless such as himself as stepping stones. While their faith in him is appreciated, Isaac finds himself chafing under their viewpoints some. The idea that he's something greater just because a magic dog saved his life doesn't sit right with him. [break](Relevant threads: Isaac vs. Nomi, Isaac and Howard)[break][break]

    However, that isn't to say Isaac plans on neglecting his gifts. This is where he differs from , one of the few people in Hoenn that sees no glory in his condition. Instead, he sees Isaac as a victim, bound to an inevitable death by a god's poisoned gifts. Isaac can't say he even fully disagrees with Temp. He respects the gravity and conviction that his former friend treats this change with, and he knows even if Temp's words aren't literally true his role puts him in great risk. Rather than run from this fate, Isaac prepares to face it head on. [break](Relevant threads: Attack: Isaac)[break][break]

    That isn't to say Isaac plans on exploiting this power. He's already seen what others can do with unchecked avatar power. is the biggest example of this, Isaac's encounters with him in the Megalopolis and resurfaced isle less meetings with Zev the man and more desperate escapes from an implacable monster. Even now, Isaac is investigating his whereabouts, almost morbidly fascinated by this metamorphosis. Equally fascinating is a run-in with one of his alternate selves, an Isaac whose lack of hardship left him a directionless hedonist. Seeing both who he once admired and who he could have been so consumed by their own power is a reminder for Isaac to never take his gifts lightly. [break](Relevant threads: Lesser Megalopolis: ZI, Isaac vs Zev, Howling at Nothing)[break][break]

    Some have seen this less as caution and more as a lack of commitment to his power. is chief among these. In their first clash with Isaac, he and Xerneas accuse Isaac of squandering his power. They see the distance between Isaac and Suicune and wonder if there's even a bond worth forming between the two. However, when they meet again, they realize both the strength in Isaac and Suicune's mutual, independent trust and the dangers of their own codependence. Their clashes are reminders that Avatarship takes many forms, and that whenever he crosses paths with another it would do him well to learn from them. [break](Relevant threads: Isaac vs. Bryan, Seeds of Doubt)[break][break]

    and share a distrust for Avatars, albeit from a different angle. They, instead, resent the inevitability with which the whims of gods and kings shape the region. This is where Isaac truly agrees; whatever Avatars are, whatever he is, he refuses to let it make him someone who lords his might over their lessers. They urge him to be an iconoclast within AQUA's ranks, joining them in helping shake things up. His acceptance puts Isaac in a very unique position, both a former Rocket outsider and a member of the League's inner circle. [break](Relevant threads: Driveby)[break][break]

    Isaac could just call it a day here, and coast on the champ's word keeping him safe from those who doubt him. However, Suicune didn't choose Isaac because he sat on his laurels and raked in the glory. They chose Isaac because, even at great risk, he sought to make a difference. This is an angle Isaac has continued to pursue, using Suicune's powers for reasons as great as purging 's corruption of Petalburg Woods or as small as helping deliver Christmas packages. Under 's guidance, he has joined the Rangers to further commit to this lifestyle. From the highs of AQUA to the lows of individual civilians, Isaac has every intent of making a difference. [break](Relevant threads: Solace, Broken Down Negotiations)[break][break]

    This even goes to Team Rocket, a group Isaac has a very complicated relationship with. He hates what they do on an organizational level, but his sympathies run deep for the lost and the listless in the same position as him. This is where his title of the Liberator shines; he intends on breaking the chains of those who need relief, both those put on them by Rocket's demands and by the League's suspicions. Already, he has helped counsel and about their own uncertainties, to say nothing of his flat-out adoption of , , and as his family. [break](Relevant threads: An Eye for an Eye, Sleep Like the Dead)[break][break]

    However, he isn't only here for past defectors. A part of him hopes his connections with those such as and will one day bear fruit. He knows he can't force the issue, even as he longs to tear Rocket down so they are no longer crushed by its boot upon their throats. Instead, he echoes what had done for him in the past, offering to be the hand on the other side of the chasm to catch them when they are ready. Even if he can never reach them in full, he aims to make them think through his efforts. (And I, too, aim as a writer to make you all think OOCly and help jumpstart plots of all stripes). [break](Relevant threads: Tori & Isaac, Child's Play)[break][break]

    In general, it is this drive to understand and empathize that guides Isaac along the highs and lows of his journey. It is what spurs him to ease the chains off of those who yearn for better, but also to break them out of the hands of their cruel masters. It is what leads to him trying to connect with small children and towering legends alike. It is what drives him to use both soothing waters and harsh ice with equal gusto. It is what stops him from lingering in one place, instead choosing to drift across the region like the northern breeze.[break][break]

    Isaac still doesn't have all the answers, but that's okay. Maybe Suicune's gifts are just a reflection of what he's already been doing; helping out the people he loves and the region he comes home, one step at a time, no matter how often he gets knocked down.

  • sync pair scout[break]
    after testing best buddy ol' pal for aqua with a multitude of interrogations disguised as friendly banter and talks, he made his way to give an impromptu one after finding out his suicune friend during resurfaced treasures. the offers were simply shortcuts for the directions they already took off to, speeding up the course to whatever finish line they wanted to reach.
    [break][break]
    kyle continues to look for more wayward people so he can make use of his privileges to point them to a direction of shortcuts they need. threads with and are on course, giving them an opportunity for an express lane should stars align.


  • trainer lodge[break]
    despite being the last person people expect to be the most inspirational, kyle tries his best to be one. for those who approach him, kyle is an assurance that they belong.
    [break][break]
    he proves to be an anchor for on his descent to madness in a one-sided tug-of-war for his mental, providing him a single face that his paranoia won't feed into. also happens to take to kyle for advice more often than not, with his straightforwardness aiding with josh's clarity with how he sees the world from within the league.



if an avatar, summarize how you've utilized[break]the legendary/avatarship for collaborative narrative:


  • 1. AVATARSHIP: HO-OH[break]

    after goodbye galar, kyle finds himself more in-tune with ho-oh's traits, albeit they show in subtle ways, often subconsciously, mirroring the way he pulls the beasts out of the ashes to be legends themselves.
    [break][break]
    taking a spin out of his title as the emergent, rather than being the one on the spotlight, he finds ways to reward those that gets close to him with an avenue to be a star of their own right.
    [break][break]
    with the site plot being connected with dreams and contradictions, kyle's direction as ho-oh's avatar plays with themes and parallels likening him with his title as the emergent, effectively setting up a paradox of him being relevant by setting the stage for others to step up.

summarize 2 plots that are in-progress and being threaded:


  • 1. Vs rockets[break]
    Rather than being one concise plotline, this is more of a general goal I've been looking to push for Penelope. Mainly that I want to deepen the connections between Penelope and the other faction. So far, to do this, Penelope utilized resurfaced treasure to fight several different rockets. Many of these threads are serving to act as the groundwork for future possible plotlines. So far, this list includes , , , , and , but there is also plans in the works of extending that list to include and (will mention more on this).
    [Break][break]
    Out of these relationships, I'll highlight what I think was my favorite. In this thread [x], my ongoing plot with and comes to head when Penelope meets - the same head scientist she'd been told had left the region - on the battlefield. From there she reveals that Rowan had told her of her disappearance. This was a cool plot cause it (1) pulled from the ongoing plotline between penny/Rowan, and (2) created a strong foundation between these two women that we can further play with in the future.


  • 2. ME COUNCILWOMAN![break]
    Basically a second goal of mine is just fulfilling the role as councilwoman. I've done this through a few different facets, some planned some already done. Namely there was the baby RAT TRAP, which helps add onto ' plot as well as stuff that iykyk. GOLDEN ERA also now feeds into a future emphasis of SAPPHIRE initiative and directly ties with the current thread between Freya/penny/Eva catching Kyogre. This plan is going to be a future project that ties in with , , , and more. If more details are needed, dm but a lot of deal with their individual plots so I don't wanna spoil things too soon fufufufu.

    I also helped lead this year's league Christmas party with and . This helps utilize Penny's position to help create opportunities for others within the league to have fun and chit chat.
    [Break][break]
    I'm also interacting with characters in smaller ways, though most havent been developed as December has been hectic but the groundwork is being laid out rn.
    [Break][break]
    This includes a Zekrom plotline with dabbling with his previous relations with rocket and the topic of IDEALS and what it means. As well as helping with creating pr for the Icelands.


if an avatar, summarize how you've utilized[break]the legendary/avatarship for collaborative narrative:


  • 1. AVATARSHIP: LEGENDARY[break]
    Firstly, I'm continuing the plotline previous described in my previous ac post. Beyond that, there are also plans with and to have the ruinous beasts to meet.
    [Break][break]
    But mainly, in terms of updates, there was this thread in which and Penelope finally meet again. Here, for the first time, Penelope not only follows 's advice of calling out to Chi-yu, but finally accepts it full heartedly. This plot deals with Penelope's final bits of shame for the bond she's created, as her envy for power swallowed all hesitations previously holding her back.
    [Break][break]
    Through this continuation of this bond corrupting her, I hope to further interact with other members of league and maybe rocket with the question of: can our councilwoman be trusted now that she's bonded to a legendary publicly linked to the ruination? Where does Penelope end and chi-yu begin?


  • any notes/comments: sorry if this ac post is a bit disjointed. I was expecting more time this week than I was given. If more details are needed, pls reach out and I can expand upon any of these points.

CANON ACTIVITY CHECK


THANK YOU / CANON LIST CHANGES



THANK YOU FOR CONTRIBUTING YOUR WONDERFUL CHARACTERS & NARRATIVES to Hoenn's seventh canon activity check. This thread will be a thorough archive and a piece of evidence for the collaboration this community exhibits.

Although operating this site can be difficult due to a myriad of reasons, being able to witness a variety of talented writers coming together to create long-running, detailed, and entertaining stories is always worth it.

Even though this site will not last forever and even though I'm not perfect, the fact that you all have invested some part of your creative self into this site is a privilege I will not take lightly.

There is so much more to look forward to. As Pokemon as a franchise evolves, so too will our site. February may bring exciting news for future story elements as we look to wrapping up this arc in the coming year and a bit.

We have these canon activity checks for a variety of reasons apart from fulfilling activity requirements:

  • ๐Ÿ“ Showcases connectivity of plots between players, canons, non-canons, and setting for all members.

  • ๐Ÿ“ Assists writers with reaffirming, discovering, or crafting links between threads and narrative developments.

  • ๐Ÿ“ Allows Shiv to examine motivations and plots of all involved characters to help him find ways to supplement; also, reveals reciprocation of investment to site.


GENERAL FEEDBACK


THANK YOU ALL FOR ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL CANON AC. I believe this is the strongest set of summaries and stories in a long while. Seeing how everyone uses the setting, their narrative tools, and other players and their characters has been enthralling and inspiring to witness.

From fleshing out a meaningful era as Rocket Grunt to carving out his own unique strengths as a Rocket Beast and the complexities of a council member's role playing out in 's revolving wheel of relationships and self-discovery, there is much to be excited about when viewing the entirety of the Hoenn cast, canon and non-canon alike.

Here is some general feedback to keep in mind and will be referenced in sections below.

  • ๐Ÿ”ฆ Much better integration of non-canon characters this time around!


  • ๐Ÿ”ฆ Please try to keep it to TWO PLOTS. I may not have the ability to read more than twoโ€”and practicing an editorial cut may prove to be a more focused and cohesive approach.


  • ๐Ÿ”ฆ No need to type in the AVATAR/LEGENDARY section if you are not an AVATAR; however, an exemption can be made for characters that were previously Avatars, compromised Avatars, or for characters in special circumstances like and Uxie.


  • ๐Ÿ”ฆ Continue to explore narrative themes and thematic tensions within the setting. Explore other characters' internal motivations alongside one's own instead of wholly focusing on physical objectives, rewards, and more.

    The SITE RULES/INFAMY THREAD has been updated with advice I've given out to players in the past.




CANON/AVATAR DEPARTURES


The following characters have not fulfilled canon activity check requirements:[break]

- ROCKET BEAST
Roux and I have communicated with each other regarding Marza withdrawing her position as Rocket Beast. She won't be archived and will remain as a character to RP with.


- RESHIRAM
ICly, Reshiram has left Razz after believing it has done all it can for Razz. However, a news in January will bring about concerning news: that the VAST WHITE POKEMON HAS GONE MISSING, DISAPPEARING ABRUPTLY FROM ALL TRACKING DEVICES.


SKYLER/ANGELO - KYOGRE, LATIOS & LATIAS
ICly, Skyler has lost control of Kyogre in the KYOGRE INCIDENT OF NOVEMBER. Latios and Latias part ways with Angelo after he leaves with his wife for work in international waters. Their A.Q.U.A. Initiative contracts have been severed, and their company, Nautica, no longer works with the League.



FURTHER NOTES


ANY OPEN CANON SPOTS can be reserved for by characters that have laid their foundation in the setting and developed narratively towards these particular seats. However, these canon spots will be heavily vetted by staff. Characters and players who have shown consistency across a long period of time and have a good in-character foundation for particular canon positions will be prioritized.

Furthermore, players who do not already have canons may be considered more than others, as well. Deliberation for these seats may take some time too.

Characters who have lost their canon seats who want to re-apply for their old positions or apply to new positions, may do so in after a lengthy period of time alongside a reevaluation of investment and activity; however, reassumption of these seats is not guaranteed.

Please note again that characters do not need to be CANON CHARACTERS to make an impact on the site. Similarly, CANON POSITIONS OR AVATARSHIP should not be viewed as end goals, sole goals, rewards and more. The question one must ask themselves is, "does my character's story revolve around these positions/rewards, or do these positions/rewards instead revolve around my character?"
