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!
ranger - 19/f ahuda is a ranger who's gotten quite a long way since the start of her journey. she's one of the most advanced active rangers, and my main, so most characters will eventually met her lol. she's reckless, blunt, and currently not exactly in the right mind. she's always ready to welcome and help out new eos, though, but be warned - her bite is worse than her bark. it's not recommended that scourge or hades plot with her, although eos are welcome. just prepared for sentence fragments and her tendency to run off into danger without warning.
hades agent - 23/f an agent formerly known as eleanor ravensdale from lake pax. that persona is still alive today through some careful engineering and occasional surfacing to polite company, but at all other times you're dealing with tamara. where eleanor is lady-like, kind, and understanding, tamara is... the same, except for a violently protective streak that wasn't there in eleanor. eos are unlikely to be attacked on-sight, although with the way that things've been going for her it's only a matter of time before attacking vaccinated pokemon is reflex for her. it's generally discouraged to get on her bad side.
trainer - 19/f a trainer who's only known as 'verte,' in a mockery of her family name. she was - and still is, really - considered the best of her graduating class, and a family prodigy. she'd gone traveling a bit since she was eleven, returning at her parents' insistence when she was seventeen. she's a brilliant, insomniac girl, ruthless against the scourge but still trying to remain human all the same. she'd lost her entire first team against scourge, so she doesn't name her pokemon anymore - only athena, her first new partner. both eos and hades plots are welcome.
researcher - 20/m a hardened man from bacchus town, father a scientist at pax and mother a breeder. he fled to nerio, then di manes after the scourge massacred the town, and he's turned grim, sarcastic, and relentless since then. he was widely acknowledged as one of the more brighter minds in bacchus before everything went to hell. be prepared for cursing and a general anti-people personality.
breeder - 22/f a woman from mount aurae, pokemon were really the only interest she had. left at a young age to study pokemon breeding in proserpina. she's known as the aloof, independent, and slightly off girl with the sharp wit and sharper tongue. really, really hates being tied down, although helping pokemon (and their people, but not always) is her joy. she sends the money she earns as a breeder back to her parents, and it works out for them, for the most part.
a sage that's still learning what it means to be one. hails from cura village as the town pariah, and local black sheep. nice, if a bit jaded and vengeful. can be found hanging around near cities. if you have a researcher that needs a particularly elusive entry, don't be afraid to hit him up.

i've basically given up on plotting grayson with people. but if you want some awkward pissy bitch who hates people and is a total pushover w/ pokemon, he's your guy. if not, move along.
alex is my agent. he's kind of a sadistic freak/casanova, or at least he was meant to be. he's become really emotional lately and a bit unstable. but he bleeds scourge, so if you want someone who is likely to attack you, find alex on a bad day. if it's a good day, he'll be nice. he'll probably try to sleep with you unless ur underage. or don't consent. no means no #psa
luke just fucking got out of jail and was accidentally thrown into cypress labs. he don't got jack shit of an idea of what's going on. he's got some pokemon i pawned off from grayson and his starter and he's got no idea what's going on. so yeah he's probably gonna be wandering around proserpina for a while just like "what is going on with the world" because everything look fine in proserpina.
he'll also be wondering why there are so many weirdly coloured pokemon running around.
OK SO LET'S SEE HOW MANY LIVES WE CAN RUIN HOW MANY PLOTS WE CAN GET.
ahuda & alex - because hey, why not. vengeful ranger v. hades agent rematch? or something? dunno. alex didn't have his face covered, right? we could do something with that, idek.
raph & alex - he needs to get off his ass and get out of proserpina. so... dunno?
raph & luke - he's still in proserpina. readymadeexcuse so a chance meeting?
verte & luke - verte is just staying put in proserpina until the amberwell is sorted out one way or the other, so we can have them stumbling on each other and see where they go? same with raph, really, lol
if any of your characters are near nerio, bacchus, or dimanes, we could probably do something with xavier, although i'm not sure how likely that is atm. thoughts?

grayson is ng+ so he's as far as sol city. besides that i have alex since he just goes wherever the fuck he goes.
ahuda+alex - yeah i'm down. judging by the circumstances of which they met he wouldn't take too kindly to her. but that's excellent plot. you start or me?
raph+alex - idk if alex would go as far as proserpina, he doesn't really have much to do there since it's just starting trainers and he doesn't fuck with them. he likes to give them a chance first. so idk about that.
raph+luke - yeah luke will probably just crash into him and be like "hey bro wtf is going on help a brother out"
verte+luke - lol ok. they're both trainers, maybe they can battle a little. luke needs the levels. i want him into the gym fast.

ETHAN + TAMARA: i'd like to get ethan acquainted with any and all agents that he can! second generation agents should stick together, I think that they should get to know each other if you're up for it? ethan's views on scourge are actually almost the polar opposite of tamara's, so i think that would make for an interesting clash if she ever managed to find that out.
otherwise, i think they could just get to know each other, maybe see each other as backup for whenever they're going to be attacking higher leveled trainers in the future, if tamara is interested, of course!
LACEY + TAMARA: she's definitely below level 70, haha, floating around the 15-20 level mark for her main team. since i have a challenge going on right now(i'd still love a battle in the future, if you're up for it!), i was interested in the two of them just casually meeting up, perhaps? Lacey's relationship with pokemon in general is very similar to that of Tamara's view of scourge pokemon, and lacey's beliefs also grow to encompass scourge as well, since she believes they're all pokemon, or were pokemon to begin with. She would definitely view tamara as a good friend if only for their shared 'beliefs', so to speak, and probably be very conflicted about attacking her in battle unless she had to.
these are just some of my thoughts, i'd love to hear any of your ideas as well!
"into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely."
hi citrus! i've wanted to thread with your characters for so long now, let's be friends. what do you mean, i was stalking? what is this stalking you speak of?
ethan & tamara - yes! tamara just needs friends at the moment. even knowing about his views on the scourge, she'll be really friendly and nice. ...probably to a mother-henning point. idek, i haven't gotten to that point with her yet. and if they get along pretty well, i'm totally up for the backup idea!! tamara'd probably just drop in on ethan's battles if it looked like he's having trouble anyway haha
lacey & tamara - i'm ready for a challenge/battle whenever you are!! but for a more casual relationship, i love it! i just want all the friends for her haha, especially because she's probably one of the two only characters that would actually keep them around and not accidentally drive them off. outside of hades, she's really relaxed and... not exactly flippant about the scourge, but not really taking extreme sides on the matter, either. if she'd ever see lacey across the battlefield, it'd always be as tamara, not eleanor, who she is among eos and regular pokemon.
...wow, what i just wrote doesn't make a lot of sense. tell me if i'm too confusing? ^^;;
ETHAN + TAMARA: awesome! togekiss(when it evolves) is a really powerful support pokemon as well as good offensive attacker, based on its moveset, ethan would definitely be grateful for the support!!
would you like a thread with the two of them sometime? I can't promise i'll be the fastest poster, but i will try to post as frequently as I can. ethan tends to linger in the areas surrounding decima or the library of lost things, usually.
LACEY + TAMARA: haha i think lacey would really enjoy her company, the fact that tamara's a chill sort of person would just make it a lot easier for them to get along! getting to know her as eleanor first and then tamara would make for some pretty interesting/potential drama when they first meet on the battlefield, too.
like i mentioned above, i'd also love a thread with these two as well, but i can't promise super fast posting on my part. if you're backed up on threads and would rather take these one at a time i'd be perfectly fine with that too!
and don't worry, i understood everything, it wasn't confusing at all. <3
ethan & tamara - i'd love threads! and don't worry, i have a lot of threads so it's fine if you take your time. <3 i'll probably throw up a thread somewhere in the library for ethan by tonight, then, and we can see how they interact from there. :3
lacey & tamara - yay! tamara doesn't have a lot of identity issues, but she does have some loner tendencies as eleanor, so it'll be good for her to find friends as her. as tamara, though, she won't really care if it's a friend attacking the scourge, which could add for more drama. XD
i can do both of these threads at the same time, or one at a time, depending on what you prefer. <3
ETHAN + TAMARA: alright, thanks so much! i'll reply as soon as i get the chance to.
LACEY + TAMARA: if you're not too busy, i'd love both of these threads at the same time! if it's not too much trouble, could you start both of them? it'll take me much longer to create the thread rather than reply to it, thanks so much!
