WELCOME & AU PLANNING - MAY 2017

[cordibus]

WELCOME TO THE FIRST PLANNING POST!

Congratulations on being accepted into the game. Now let's have a big meeting post, plan and have fun together!

AU PLANNING

The AU in this game is completely player's choice. We encourage you to take a look at the city and plan accordingly! Your AU information can be added to your character hub, should you desire. As long as it is available somewhere, and others can take a quick glance and know what the character's AU is.

We only ask that you try to keep everything tasteful and respect our decision if we feel you're going too far. As the game begins, you are free to continue using this post to plan or ask the mods first-post related questions. We'll do our best to answer in a timely manner!

The city of Eddan is very much a typical metropolis, so your characters can have any job that would make sense in a busy city. They don't have to be restricted to the school, or have a school job. If you're not sure, don't be shy about asking. There's a lot of freedom!

Roll the dice

There is also a randomized AU signup if you'd like to leave it to chance who your family members are and establish pre-game CR with new people. But if you'd rather leave it for now and wait for other app turns, that's also fine!

GAME START

The first log will be posted on MAY 13TH. Please vote on what time you want it to be posted. We'll go with player majority! (As a note, this will be done for all rounds).

Re: Lenka Utsugi (God Eater)

Gladion would be a year younger so they wouldn't be classmates. That said, I'd be down for the "dealt with bullies once" idea. ...especially since once he awakens, Gladion might turn into a bit of a bully given the right circumstances.

(This game is reminding me how I'm neglecting my Moon game, go me.)

Lenka would have been in the same cycle with him until last year, so I'm thinking they still would have seen some of each other since they would be on the same campus/subcampus! :D Interestingly enough, especially after Awakening, if it's someone he knows (and more so if they've stood up together in the past) going down the wrong path Lenka's more inclined to be understanding and/or try to work with them. (And also they'll have Shadows to deal with, so literally working with them!)

(Also I could swear we've played together before somewhere since your name sounds familiar but I think it was ages ago so I'm drawing a blank!)

[lovelledup]

You should definitely play more Moon. :D

Yeah it seems legit that they would have seen each other around even if they weren't in the same class. Especially if we go the bullies route since if someone was picking on Gladion somewhere out on campus it seems like it would have caught Lenka's attention.

(Did we???? Though now that you say it, your name seems familiar, too. I'm curious now...)

Yes! I'm really enjoying the game so far, the NPCs are great but I keep getting distracted by sidequests and taking 9000 pictures of Pokemon. Pokesnap was one of the missed opportunities of my childhood. 8D

Yes I am totally down for a bully brawl. Show 'em who's boss!! They could also probably run into each other now and again if Gladion does any extracurriculars before or after school, and whatnot. Like the type that mostly see each other and hang out occasionally at school, but not outside that. (And then Awakening Happens.)

(I'm super curious maybe we'll figure it out someday. DWRP is the smallest world.)

I miss Pokemon Snap from back in the day, gotta say.

This sounds good to me! So far all I know for extracurriculars is that he does martial arts at the dojo Mako teaches at. That might not be the only thing, though, just the only one I've decided so far.

I'm zeroq1 on plurk or nobody#7007 on discord if you want to talk more about AUs and brainstorm where we might have met each other lol
