I have 2-3 characters in mind...

1- A male pancham or pangoro who has an attraction towards trans characters and is VERY uncomfortable
2- A male snubbull that is the brother (adopted) of the previously-mentioned pancham and is VERY supportive of him (embarrassingly so)
3- A wartortle with Rain Dish, Aura Sphere, and 8 siblings

I'll take part in the Mystery Dungeon RP but I think I'll pass on the sci-fi one.

I'll role a female Ralts, need think up a name and some personality. How are we handling evolution?

i guess EXP would be the best way to do it.  I'll gather up my Dungeon Plungin' stuff and put together a system.  I don't have it with me at the moment.

Alright when ever you can is fine.

Edit: Of there is a post for you in Mana Verse Quickie.

Tackled. XD

I definitely plan to use Wally for the MD RP.  Wheelchair and all.

Okay, giving evolution some thought, currently.  While I would normally just use EXP and assign it to certain levels, what I'm trying to avoid is all the number-crunching.  I'm trying to keep dice rolls at a minimum, with using them mostly for dungeon and enemy generation. 

What we could do is have event flags or items that would trigger evolution.  Perhaps complete a certain task and the option to evolve is provided.  What're your thoughts?  I want to avoid what happened with the Wushu campaign, but at the same time have some sort of play structure.

I'm leaning toward the system used for the Mana Verse, only modified to be more of a dungeon crawler.

I'd say a combination of event flags and items. Maybe learning particular moves to evolve? Perhaps it could vary between species.

Yeah, which is why items and event flags might be the way to go.  Or even the player saying "Hey, I wanna evolve.  Can I?"

Unfortunately, I forgot my Dungeon Plungin' stuff, so I can't work on a decent system this week.  As opposed to a rigid system, though, I was leaning toward keeping the system loose and keeping the veto system.  Dungeons would be randomly generated via DM dice roll.  Evolution would be done via certain event flags, whatever those may be.

Any ideas for that?

Well, Legman's already evolved to a degree, so I think event flags are the best route.

In MD, evolution was post-game where you had to go to a specific location and could do it freely once you met the level requirements, however. I'm not sure how, plot-wise, that would be handled. I suppose it's up to Quickie. Maybe a traveling evolution sage? That sounds Mystery Dungeon-ish.

That'll work, actually.  Some wise old Eevee with a bag of stones, items, and some magical elixir for instant evolution.

Been making a concept for a new character possibly for Wilypocolypse or even another unrelated RP at a later date, (I admit I've been playing the Deception series a lot lately so this might have triggered my desire to use this concept  8D ))

A character who can summon all kinds of traps-but doesn't attack directly, Perhaps a minion of WilyII at first who either joins the resistance or goes off on her own. She'd either be a robot master-or a dark magic user-can't decide. Either way going for a maid like look to her-if she's a robot master I'll add some robotic mega man style boots or something. At the very least she could whip up some dangerous dungeons for the resistance to explore.  8D

Any thoughts on such a concept-and if it would work? I'm thinking of all the traps I could make up for abilities.  8D

Other than summoning traps--perhaps she can either create areas on the fly (Wily Installed a Level Editor?  8D ) or locations to house her traps if she has more time to generate them?

In a battle I could see her making mazes to confuse her enemies and then fill them with deadly traps.

Either that or you can talk to Vyse to see if he can help you get in since he's starting too.  That or just wander the ruins of St. Acidburg til he bumps into you.  Or come to the Weapon's Shack looking for a job too.  Just throwing some ideas here.

Speaking of which I'm thinking of just retconing the name of the Weapon's Shack to the Survival Shack.
