This world is inhabited by creatures that we call pokemon. People and pokemon live together by supporting each other, but now the scourge threatens the safety of the entire region. Kohaku has become a dangerous place, where children stay at home and only brave souls go adventuring.
Welcome to KOHAKU. Come for the nightmares. Stay for the tea and crumpets.
The season is SUMMER. It is easy for survivors to forage for food from the land, as there are entire abandoned farms ready for harvest. On the downside, you can smell the corpses.

GRAND OPENING !
Welcome to KOHAKU REGION's grand opening! If you're interested in joining, come check out our grand opening giveaway!
hey so this is amelie, dense girl extraordinaire, who is seventeen and a ranger! although very clumsy and forgetful and very very dense, she's a good girl at heart and has defined sense of right and wrong, and the idea of a grey zone confuses her. though she's kinda small and looks like a doormat, she can be pretty feisty and angry and isn't afraid to back down even if it's too late and it leads her to disaster. she's from cura village, and is from a normal family. her love of flowers and nature comes from her botanist mother, and travelling is what she'd dream of doing since being a little girl. the idea of pokemons dying and bad things happening is of course bad, which is why she joined eros as a ranger. uh uh she's pretty friendly i guess but her love interest is claimed but other things are okay !!
omfg amelie and tiff can be dense ranger girls together!
no, really, i'm serious. that's the first thing that came to mind. aaaand i actually can't manage to think of anything past that >.<; i think it'd be fun for them to meet and stuff though.
But yeah, who's to say that these two weren't at least acquaintances back in the hometown. Maybe they knew each other in their youth, tons of playdates, but he left all of sudden at sixteen to Proserpina.
Perhaps they meet each other in Proserpina, actually. I was thinking Juno (because I think it'd be a nicer setting for these two to meet), but I'm sure you'd like to get moving on the journey. So that's up to you.
He's a trainer and she's a ranger, so that's a neat little duo when it comes to traversing this crazy apocalyptic wasteland. I think it'd be cool if they explore some arcane mountain or sketchy city alleyway.
They both have flora-related backgrounds: amelie comes from botanists, karp comes from farmers. So I'm sure they'd have some chemistry based on that, even.
Anyway, there you go. If you're interested, you can find out the inner-mechanisms of his mind in a thread or two (or three, ...). I suppose we'd just have to see how they play off each other in a thread.
delilah delacroix is a trainer; she's pretty outgoing and easy to get along with? c: she's from bacchus, and has a personal vendetta against the scourge (so she might be a little bit intense at times, especially when it comes to fighting), but she'd really appreciate amelie having joined eos. she knows they need about as much manpower as they can get, and rangers are a++ in her book. i'm thinking they could be friends? c:
zara karimi is a breeder, but doesn't care about scourge at all. she's a little off sometimes, and isn't an outdoorsy person (re: at all), so i'm not sure how well they'd get along? she's rather callous, so she might clash with amelie and her headstrong personality.
cameron aster is from cura as well, but was driven out by the town -- so cam has a definite grudge against the entire village. x: as an agent, though, it would be interesting if amelie fought cam at some point in the future. c:
dizzy: omg tiff sounds so cuuuute!! yeahh, they can totally be dense ranger girls together and i can imagine they could hit it off pretty easily! haha, i imagine amelie would be terrible with horror movies so that could be funny i guess... lolidkhowtoplot well, amelie is pretty friendly and im sure tiff can deal with her oddness lolol.
so where do you think they could meet? c: c:
ozy: OHO HELL YEAHHHH. knowing each other in youth sounds cool, 'cause i imagine amelie would have stuck around with boys when she was younger, girls didn't seem to like her much because she was stubborn and a lil weird. she wasn't great at the whole friend thing when she was younger, so maybe it was just all of a sudden she hears from someone else 'guess what karp's just left the village' and then she freaks out because she didnt say goodbye and blahblahblah she's very proper, ok. that probably just fueled her desire to leave even more - 'if karp leaves, why can't i???' - but obviously amelie is an airheaded idiot at the best of times so her mother didn't feel safe letting her go :c
well, she's definitely having to go to prosperpina to meet up with her soon to be travel buddy, but juno is cool too, 'cause she's there to see the ranger leader for her partner anyways, lol. so y'know, it doesn't really matter, heheh.
haha, i dunno about karp but amelie is definitely amazed by the presence of grass pokemon, she just loves them to bits and they remind her of home, lol. strange that i didn't pick one for her partner but i just love riolu too much crey
yeah yeah, that sounds great o/
tuyet: oh wow ty ty for giving me all three of your characters! yay plots!! delilah - i bet amelie would look up to her 'cause she has this mature kind of impression? also she'd find all her pokemon really really cool, especially because she just recently started out, hahaha. amelie is quite a friendly person also, and i get the feeling that she'd even begin to kinda idolize delilah, 'cause she doesn't know a lot of people and in her mind, she's really worth looking up to and a great role model lol. lol.
zara: while i see amelie trying hard to find out why she doesn't care about the scourge 'cause she sees it as a terrible terrible terrible thing and why would anyone not care to save the pokemon??!!! (even though she actually knows very little about the scourge, since she's an idiot) i don't think she'd dislike her for it, rather, she'd just find zara really really strange. i guess she'd even see her as a challenge, and would probably constantly pester her to be happy and outgoing and what have you and sometimes amelie just needs people to tell her when she's crossed the line, lol. although her intentions are good, she doesn't really go about it in a decent way. i also see amelie fascinated by her job, because a) she doesn't know much about the world b) she's only really aware of trainers and rangers, class wise.
cam: ohhhh, agent. amelie is pretty dense, so if she decides to label her as a 'bad guy' she's a 'bad guy', and would actually know nothing about her class as an agent. obviously she would never know what happened to cam or her existence beforehand, since she was still pretty young. maybe she even saw something but never remembered. lolidk imsorryimsobadatplotting
Don't worry, Tiff won't make her watch horror movies. She won't even want Amelie to know that she loves them. They're her dirty little secret she's hiding from the world. And the oddness is totally dealt with.
Okay let's thread these too. Not in Juno. Never in Juno. On a good day, Juno is this. Somewhere in Proserpina it is! You wanna start or you want me to?
Was bored, so I posted a thread. It's in Juno at a park, by a outdoor coffeeshop, on a bar, etc.
Yeah, Karp basically upped and left everyone (including his parentals), so I could see Amelie being pissed, relieved, and happy upon seeing him.
Karp would probably have an affinity with grass pokemon! I kind of planned him out to have BIG MOUNTAIN SIZED mons, but I could shoehorn a grass pokemon in there. He's a farmer after all.
stefan is a big ball of angst with a mindset that isn't really compatible for a lot of the social situations that he gets thrown in. he's a lot better now than he used to be (now that he's out of his abusive clusterfuck of an adoptive family), but he's still trying to find some direction in his life. other chars think that he's a condescending ass, but stefan is actually less so now that he's lost all sense of ego. he's actually not that combative when he doesn't feel cornered, but i still wanna say that he's a force to be reckoned with. he can be rather ruthless if someone presses the right buttons. he's just finding out about his blood relation to cameron aster, but he was actually born in proserpina city.
sophia is a hades agent, and a rather chill one at that. unlike cameron, she doesn't give off scary vibes and she prefers to keep her allegiance a secret that she will take to the grave. she's not talkative, but she can be nice when she wants to be.
alia is an eos researcher who's brash and unafraid to go for what she wants. she hails from decima with a buttload of family problems, but other than that, nothing really holds her down. her sense of right and wrong can also be rather clear cut, but alia means well.
delilah: omg amelie cutie. delilah would adore amelie, and just be like 'let's go shopping' and 'let's go check out cute people' and whatnot sighs. <3 and amelie's riolu and delilah's lucario, let's do this!! bael is secretly a worrywart, and if amelie's riolu was super playful or something bael just might let the riolu climb all over him. he's like a mom except not female pfft.
zara: urgh i have no idea how zara would react. she'd ignore amelie to start out with, then things would go downhill from there? i'd like to say zara would speak, but she may also end up just hitting and/or attempting to stab amelie with whatever she has on hand i'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY(whispers it's not amelie's fault is entirely zara's)
cameron: hahaha don't worry. all my plots with cameron are essentially 'she looks like a man walks like a man talks like a man let's have them battle if you want a scourge fight'
dizzy omg tiff is sooo cute ; AAA ; well, im not so great at plotting but maybe we could totally just thread things out! o/ prosperpina sounds lovely, and whatever you fancy!! im gonna be pretty slow tho js but if you're up for waiting for me that's cool too o/
ozy ; u ; karp is such a darling. i feel sorry for him having to deal with a huge derp like amelie is, but he's just... such a sweetie pie? but yes they should just bump into each other here and there and ame would definitely want to bother him all the time so she can see all of his lovely pokemon!! she's always very curious about them but she's terrible with names, lmfao. thanks for starting the thread btw~
toska !!! you know how i told you i wanted to plot with stefan *^* MIDORINNNNN so uh anyway *cough* while ame would be bothered by it if he's nasty to her - then again any kind of comment can be branded as 'nasty' in her eyes - but hey, she's going to be dealing with so many characters i think she's gonna be immune to it soon, lolol. she's the kind of ignorant little girl who would not be aware of stefan's dislike of social stuff, and she can be quite uh, chummy, let's say. she can get into people's personal spaces and piss them off quite a bit so that'd be funny to watch, hahah :'D oh and i think ame asking trainers to show her their pokemon is going to be a thing so she'll do this to stefan too yep
'your name is weird mister is it short for steffany? i have a friend called steffany...' god help him
uh, i don't really know how ame would know sophia, but i get the feeling that she'd definitely be in awe of her classiness, idk, her face claim also seems impressive to amelie. i think this would mean that ame would be intimidated by her, so... idk. if you want to go in more detail we could do that, i suppose.
alia sounds like a very nice person, but i also get the feeling she'd end up being quite pissed off with amelie. amelie is a naive ball of fluff who doesn't know shit since her hometown never got invaded and so far, she hasn't seen the effect of the scourge first hand. well, idk. amelie also has quite a clear cut idea of right and wrong, so much she's almost obsessed with this idea. her whole life philosophy is basically about being a morally good person. idk, im still trying to figure her out really.
tuyet delilah: omg they're gonna be so cute together ahhh ;A; getting to know delilah would be like having (another) big sister in her life, and ame's going to love it to bits! as far as i know, she's an only child and she's only really played with boys i think so yay! omg that would be just amazing. bael and riolu ahhh (i've not figured out a name yet ame will figure out a name someday LOL) BUT YEAH LET'S THREAD.
zara: hahaha no don't worry amelie has that kind of effect on people. and plus, she'd be totally oblivious as to why she seems to have upset zara, LOL. so it could just turn out to be some kind of stabbing and dodging fest, idk. maybe to the point it gets to second nature hahhahahha. ame tends to bother people who don't seem to like her very much. i think she tries to change their minds but i don't think it really helps that much pfft
cameron: i actually thought she was a man at one point shot shot shot shot
ZULF ? and the answer is YES OFC if dizzy agrees to this too y/n?? c: c: lulu sounds adorable too omg more ranger friends for ame!!! woohoo!!!!
Yeah man, let's thread! I've got a week of tests coming up so I'm not gonna be that fast at replying either. Proserpina it is then. You wanna start or am I?
And I'm totally fine with Lulu *snicker* interrupting. Let's see how long we can make his head shake for >:3c (okay... that sounded cooler in my head)
yuu delilah: asgds cuties <3 delilah grew up with two brothers, so she knows what it's like to be around guys (although neither of them are especially, uh, masculine) but yes i agree we should thread. i'm still kind of trying to fix my muse for the most part, but whenever you're up for it just shoot me a message or catch me in the cbox. C:
zara: tbh, zara doesn't really make much sense even to me so LOL. but as long as amelie leaves her alone she doesn't care?? idk.
