-Roleplay Questions-
[ Please use your own words. ]
What is roleplaying?
When someone assumes a different identity that is different from their own to play a game of some description.

What is meta-gaming?
Where you use knowledge that you the player know but your character doesn’t to inform their decisions.

What is power-gaming / god-modding?
When change the odds to be in your characters favour to a ludicrous degree, for example making your character bullet proof, or able to cut bullets fired at them in half.

What is retroactive continuity?
When you change a piece of lore or a part of your character after it has already had an effect.

What is the difference between in-character (IC) and out-of-character (OOC)?
IC takes the opinions and knowledge of the character into account whereas, OOC takes into account the opinions and knowledge of the player.

Do you have previous experience playing on a RP server? (This won’t affect your acceptance)
No

-General Character Questions-
Full name: Nico Yuukino Ebaki

Age: 18 yrs

Appearance: Nico is quite short (only 5’5”) and very light (barely 155 lbs.), he has relatively long limbs and fingers. He has very pale skin, slightly pointed ears, and a light dusting of freckles. He has long, wavy, auburn hair, with pinky-purple eyes. She usually wears a long, flannel shirt, over a dark grey undershirt, and light grey cargo pants and white sneakers. Around his neck she wears a silver chain necklace with a small purple crystal, which is a lucky charm from his parents and an old silver watch, with a battered leather strap from her granddad.

Personality: Nico has a rather erratic emotional state, you might meet him, and see she looks sad, a second later, he will inexplicably be jumping around with a massive grin on her face. Not even he is sure about what causes these rapid emotional shifts. She loves helping people (especially pixelmon) and pulling harmless pranks on those same people and he is fiercely loyal to her friends, although he is rather bad at reading people and will bluntly say what she’s thinking. He hates lying with a passion, but she will often use words incorrectly, or in a confusing way that makes perfect sense to him in the moment, but if said back to her, he’ll have no idea what you mean. She also has a pretty poor short term memory, and is liable to forget things almost as fast as he encounters them, but if a fact does enter her memory, it will stay there to be recalled randomly and at a moments notice. When he meets people, Nico will almost always shorten their names or give them a nickname that makes sense only to her.

Biography: Born in Kalos, Nico was born to and raised by a pair of Kantonian pixelmon conservationists, Mr. Eledine, and Mrs. Yumiko Ebaki (or papa and mama, respectively). Nico was raised around pixelmon that his parents took in be it that they were abandoned, injured or for some other reason unable to take part in the natural world they lived in. Nico’s parents worked and lived on a large estate on the western-most mountains owned by a wealthy Kalosian family who’d inherited the property but rarely actually been to. Nico’s upbringing was quite slow and relaxed, she was home educated by his mother, and spent a lot of her time on the mountain forests with his parents collecting various foods stuffs for meals, such as mushrooms, wild vegetables and berries, which she would later cook with her mother for supper. Once when they were out and about, they came across an abandoned pokemon egg, which they took home, and when it hatched, it turned out to be an absol, which Nico took upon himself to raise, she named the absol Tenshi and they have been together ever since. When Nico turned 17, he decided to try and strike out on her own so, having saved up his allowance to buy a plane ticket for herself and Tenshi to fly to the Toro region, where he had gone on holiday with her parents when he was very young.

Flaws: She has a rather loose sense of time and a poor memory, and he hates seeing pixelmon get hurt and being powerless to do anything about it. Some might also say her emotional fluidity is a drawback, and sometimes he does too, but who can really say.

Ambitions: Nico wants to research pixelmon and try to unlock all of their secrets so that humans and pixelmon can become closer as a whole and work side by side to create an idealistic world for everyone to coexist in.

Starter Pixelmon: Absol

-Open Response Questions-
-Write in third person!-
[Respond to at least 2 of the 3 scenarios. There is a one full paragraph (at least 5 sentences) minimum for each of the scenarios you choose, and responses must be written in third person and formatted like RP instead of a description. Like: ' Steve focuses on the girl with a gasp and asks, " How can I help? " ' other than ' Steve would answer the call to help the cat! Feel free to make responses for the NPC in order to meet this requirement.]

After arriving in Toro a cheerful woman walks up to you, a clipboard in her hand. “Hello and welcome to Toro! I would like to ask where you came from and why you came, as well as where you plan to go. All for for statistical reasons of course.” she asked with a bright smile as she held a pen to her clipboard. How does your character respond?
Nico smiles lightly and takes the clipboard, “of course”. She then begins to fill out the questionnaire honestly. Listing her previous home as south-western Kalos and her reason for coming to Toro as, to work towards my dream of true coexistence between humans and pokemon. Nico then hands back the clipboard and asks the cheerful woman whether she knows of any good places to stay the night and how to get there. After recieving her answer she goes sight seeing, letting Tenshi stretch their legs as they go along. They continue to take in their surroundings for the day before heading to the place they were told about and settling in for the night.

You are walking along the road when your eyes lock onto a trainer's in the distance. At that moment, you both freeze in place. You see a glimmer in the trainer's eyes as he reaches for his Pixelball. "Go, Rattata! Show this chump what we've been training for!" the trainer shouts as he swiftly releases his chosen partner in the vacant space that separates the two of you. How does your character respond?
With a slight, childish smirk on her face, Nico replies with. “Come on then Tenshi, lets show them how we do things in Kalos.” And release Tenshi out between himself and Rattata. Nico knows that in a straight forward battle, absol are top-tier predators, so a pixelmon such as a rattata shouldn’t pose too much of a threat. With this in mind, Nico quietly requests that Tenshi go easy on Rattata, so as to not hurt it too much.

Welcome! Thank you for your patience and needed fixes! ♥ Enjoy the server, your character is cute!

When you get online, you can notify a staff with a starter of your choice, with whatever specifications you could want! Custom Size / Nature / Gender / Non-HA Ability ( if you want one of these, you're best with asking around )
I'll also let you know, since it's easy to miss but! We do level the playing field a little bit and provide Max IVs / near Max IVs for Hidden Powers - though people still need to breed if they want specific stats ( like 0 atk ) and for the rest :3 ! There's a NPC to do that in our Battle Tower!

But outside of all that WELCOME! The IP is server.toro-league.com:7777 and
You can find links to the Technic Pack or individual mod links in the #rules-and-resources channel of discord, along with most important info! You can always ask if you have any questions or concerns.
^^ I recommend giving the New Player Guidea read~
