It died. PbP games do that pretty frequently.

Van launches its metallic body at one of the cubone as they approach.
"Incoming hostiles. Species: Cubone." Van announces as it turns to face the clearing.
Sorry, Initiative keys off our speed stat, correct?
Van pauses at the intersection before taking the right passageway behind Xipil. Its original intention was to stay left, but Van is willing to follow the charmander.
"As names are a common phenomenon among many pokémon, I have adopted Vanadium as mine. Most refer to me as Van, however."
Van turns to Mokhir as he speaks. "Your conclusion is a logical one. I will not argue."
Van continues eyeing the forest and addresses the other pokémon. "Without any additional information, I advise we proceed through the leftmost passageway." With this, the sapient hunk of metal floats toward the northern passage.
Gotcha, thanks.
What is the significance of the symbols on the doors in the map?
Van studies the forest ahead, looking for Sunkern or any less friendly pokémon.
"Thank you for your assistance, Mr. Onix. Unless there are any further questions or precautions you feel needs to be made-" Van's eye scans its allies, checking to see if everyone is still alright. "I suggest we make our way into the Deep, Dark Woods quickly."
Van scans the other pokémon that have come forward. "Before we embark, I suggest we procure some form of protection from the elements for those of you possessing open flame. There is no use saving one pokémon if we lose four during the mission. Perhaps some palm branches or cloth from this ship will suffice."
Can we be Team Leek?
Evolution lets you gauge how strong a pokemon is. With one that doesn't(or didn't choose to) you can pretend to be weaker and gain a sneaky advantage. Like a bigger leek ;)
Honestly, I check the boards here at least twice a day so I'm happy being a part of any team that wants a steel type.
Beldum signs the waiver, manipulating the provided quill with its psychic abilities. "Understood. Are we ready to proceed?"
Do we want to make an 'official' decision on whether our posts should be in the past or present tense? Most games I've played use the present tense, but I'm fine with either.
Van's singular eye turns toward the fire type towering over it. "Any and all assistance will be accepted."
Van heard the disgruntled response to Mayor Wigglytuff's announcement and quickly ran some calculations regarding the danger outside. the Beldum floated toward the front of the crowd to approach the mayor. In a cool, almost robotic voice it spoke above the storm. "I will find Sunkern." The words were concise, the pokémon showed no fear.
Looking over the character sheets, they all look pretty similar in format to me. /shrug
Sweet! So for back story, we'll say Van here makes Poké running deliveries (like Pelliper in the games, maybe Van works with Pelliper and some wingull). Its ability to fly and psychic powers lend themselves very well to such a task. As previously mentioned, its personality is very analytical and being genderless, has no feelings one way or the other on romance. Helping the village prosper is Van's main goal in life, as being part of a greater system comes naturally to it. A secondary goal would be to find another Beldum to evolve with.
Hmm, maybe jumping the gun and certainly overthinking it here.. Can I take some artistic liberties? Namely, being genderless, the Beldum line is unable to breed naturally, so can I say that (at least in this world) Beldum are formed naturally in special ore deposits in caves or something? Second, the pokédex mentions that Metang are created when two Beldum join together (and Metgross is made of two Metang). I have two thoughts here. Either we say Beldum evolves like any other pokémon and doesn't merge or anything, it just looks like it. Or, Beldum are part of a sort of hive mind. This would mean that joining together to form one pokémon would have little to no effect on their personality as they already share a singular sense of self.
Combat and Perception skills. I read over the campaign info and I'm just not sure what's the best move with this system.
Ok, servant6 checking in with an alias for the Beldum. Please let me know what changes need to be made. Also, would you like us to try and find avatar images? |
