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!
Taryn Carter - A 17-year-old trainer from Juno City. She had a fairly normal life with her parents and older and younger brother until her older brother came back scarred mentally and physically from a scourge attack. Now she intends to join the fight against the scourge to try and prevent his trauma from happening to anyone else. What I Want: ~Friends of any level! I don't know when she'll be open for interaction. I'd like to get her first pokemon before she does anything else. I'm up for whatever, whenever, but she can't go farther than Proserpina at present. ~Interesting stuff to happen - this can be pretty much anything, as long as it fits with her skill level (or, at least, doesn't get her killed). A basic battle (after I've gotten used to the way the site works), lifelong rivalry, exploration of some previously undiscovered part of whatever location, random goofing off around town/in the wilderness...whatever we can think up. We're here, so let's have some fun! ~Other - Throw something at me and we'll see what happens.
Relationships so Far (Planned and Started): ~Nix - Possible Friends/Friendly rivals ~Thalia - Possible Friend ~Sabina - Possible Friend ~Ignatius - Possible Friend ~Tiffany - Possible Friend ~Deryn - Possible Friend ~Let me know if I've missed anyone!
god i just realized i've barely hit up like any plotters since 3.0 started.
i have two characters to throw out to you: thalia is my eos trainer, and she's a pretty friendly, helpful and idealistic girl for the most part. she's always up for exploration or random battles. i admit i'm not very good at plotting chars out beforehand (every time i try the relationship promptly goes in the VERY OPPOSITE DIRECTION) but if you want to just throw them in a thread together and see what happens? that would be great.
i also have batin, my hades agent. he's atypical in that he's more likely to ramble away to an eos trainer/pretend to be normal around them than fight. i don't think he's ever started a fight first on kohaku, honestly. so he could have a regular thread with her, where he would appear as a normal person--or if you want, he could appear as a hades agent and monologue about his plans. like thalia he's a big talker (...i have a type) and generally easy to bounce off.
i technically have a third character as well, a psychic civilian who is a bit timid but fiercely intelligent, but my only current muse for her is to rattle off 3 paragraphs of dialogue about science experiments on the scourge. if that's your thing though, feel free to hit her up. she also has telekinesis, which might be interesting in an exploration thread.
I need to go through plotters and work things out with people, too, so I understand. XD
Your characters all sound interesting. ^.^ Taryn's friendly, slow to anger, and overly trusting, so I could see her being friends with all three of them and not even suspecting Batin of helping the scourge, unless he actually does announce his plans to her. Nearly impossible to trust someone when they outright state that they're the enemy.
Anyway, I'd be happy to thread with any or all of them, depending on your muse. ^.^
i figure ignatius would like to meet more people. mainly because he needs to scan pokémon for his pokédex, but also out of my cast of five characters ... he's by far the most sociable. he's focused on his work, but isn't opposed to maintaining friendships with others. he'll work just fine for any type of thread. (like taryn, he's only really just started out, never mind the strength of his current team lol. i have other pokémon that's around her level haha.)
thalia and sabina, my civilian, then. i can start the threads if you'd like, but i'm about to go to work for 9 hours, so they wouldn't be up until late night EST or tomorrow.
vertigo – Sounds good. ^.^ She’s She’s only got a Swablu, Fletchling, Skrelp, and Sneasel at the moment, but if he happens to be missing those entries, she’d be happy to help.
2tsunz – All right. ^.^ I think I only have access to Proserpina and Juno at the moment (and the dream world), but anywhere and any situation should work. Let me know if you’d rather I started the threads. It doesn’t matter to me who starts, as long as someone gets things rolling.
i guess we could thread in proserpina, since that's where ignatius is at the moment. he hasn't gotten any farther than ceres forest lol. out of the four he's only got a skrelp entry, so yeah. taryn definitely can help him out haha.
i meant to say this ages ago but you plot page title is my new favourite plot page title.
also you had me at 'exploration'.
okay so actual plot stuff... ... just kidding. screw the planning. but i think we should chuck our characters in a thread sometime to do some exploration. because exploration. ceres or di manes sound good, when you reach there ofc. sound like a plan?
btw i have three characters you can pick from: usually friendly, sometimes friendly, and not all that often friendly.
Thanks. ^.^ Glad you like it. I couldn't come up with anything else I thought sounded good.
If I'm remembering right, the staff ask us to have a thread where we've posted ten times or a total of fifteen IC posts across all threads in a city before we move on. If I've counted right, I have a total of fourteen IC posts in Proserpina, across three threads (and six posts in one). Either way, it shouldn't take too long to gain access to Ceres. ^.^
As for characters, I'd be happy to thread with all of them. She could always use more friends this early in her adventure, so if you have no preference then the friendly one might be most pleasant for her, but it'd be interesting to see how threads with the other two play out, also.
the agony of coming up with plot page titles is almost as painful as coming up with thread titles :c
mmhmmm that's right~ although now i think about it there's scourge stuff going down in ceres so they can be nice and paranoid about that while exploring. lemme know when you hit fifteen and i could start it.
okay, tiff it is! tiff and deryn needs more threads so i was hoping you'd pick one of them ^^; ofc, let me know whenever you want taryn to meet deryn or felizia. (taryn and deryn have similar names kinda and i think that's cute).
At this point I have 19 posts spread across my Proserpina threads, so I think I’m ready when you are. ^.^ Maybe she can meet Deryn and/or Felizia once one of my current threads concludes? And I noticed that too – it is cute.
tbh i think ~ryn is just a great name ending. tiff can use cut so wanna have them meet up at caca's grove? it's gotta be a kickass place if it was one home to an ancient salamence. (also, there's less scourge there so it'd be safer too). i can start it. ree should totally go and kick scourge ass. go ree go! omg i am so up for that if you are. especially for deryn. i haven't threaded her nearly as much as i should have >>;
