Regions and History Introduction

Post: # 7609Post atonofkittys »

Hello, everyone! Lore master, kitty canon specialist GM-A here, and welcome to the Regions and History subforum of the Toro Lore forum! *confetti fires all around* This section of the forum will be, as you can guess, focused exclusively on regions existing in the Toro lore, whether they be pre-existing from the games or anime or thought up just for a Toro character!

This section is meant to act as a reference guide for your roleplay, both in and out of character. Feel free to use any information that will be relevant to your character, including but not limited to:
  • ~ An awareness of regions’ existences, given your character has not lived under a rock his/her entire life.
    • Ex. Lily Knighton grew up relatively normally, with exposure to conversations with strangers, the radio, and books and magazines, and therefore knows of regions like Johto, Milano, and Rasilla without necessarily knowing much more than that.
  • ~ A vast amount of knowledge gained from having lived in a region for a certain number of years.
    • Ex. Lily Knighton knows a majority of the information regarding Unova, including much of its general history, because she was born and lived there for the first sixteen years of her life.
  • ~ Any information gained during roleplay with characters from different regions, or by taking trips to different regions.
    • Ex. Lily Knighton, being married to Sam Knighton of Alkir, and having two children adopted from Alkiri orphanages, knows well of Alkir’s cultural aspects from a numerous amount of trips there, while not necessarily being aware of all of its history.
  • ~ A general amount of information learned through education, and more specific detail gained from extracurricular study or higher education.
    • Ex. Lily Knighton, as a student of the Ferrite Polytechnic University, has taken a few different history courses, giving her a general idea of major historical events that took place in other regions.
If, after looking through our regions, you don’t find exactly what you’re needing for a character, and want to create a new region yourself, please fill out the form below and contact a GM for reviewal. We highly encourage using information already provided, but if there is something we are lacking, feel free to come up with something! We will also need to know if you would like to maintain control of the region’s lore by being the region’s DM. If yes, you will be in charge of anything that happens to or as a result of your region, and we will be consulting you if we need anything regarding it. If you’d rather not worry with it, simply say no! Regardless, we’ll be happy to work with you!

Region Form
Any Regions in Toro canon, and all information related to it, require approval from a GM prior to posting.
We highly recommend you speak and work with a member of the Lore Team before and during writing Region lore to make sure you don't spend too much time on something that might not have a space within our canon.

This next form is for any major events in the history of the Toro lore that involve multiple regions or otherwise could not be included in the individual region lore. This would be the form for if you need to collaborate with someone or if there is a major event that would be well-known regardless of the region the event comes from.
