Midnova's Test

-The Feebas is knocked a ways backward by the strike, but it quickly hops back to where it was before.-

Feebas: <UGLY.>

Pirate: Arrr! Ready th' ray o' confusion!

Feebas: <CONFUSE.>

-The Feebas launches a ray of light in Infinity's direction in an attempt to confuse him.-

Pirate: Avast, ye landlubber! 'Tis bein' sold at a discount! Why don't ye be purchasin' it?!

Blitz's Test

You're writing in it. To be a bit clearer, it's when dialogue is written like in a TV script, hence the name.

Nincada 1: <Oh my gosh! Growlithe!>

Nincada A: <I've, like, always wanted to see one of these!>

Nincada 1: <Oh - my - gosh! Me too!>

Nincada A: <We are totally in sync!>

(As if to demonstrate, they Mud Slap simultaneously, seemingly oblivious to the Roar.)

Test Response

Divinebow: Y-you just attacked me without explanation! What kind of freaky business model do you follow, and what's possessing you to think it'll work?

The crossdressing fem-boy seems quite finicky at the pirate. The Confuse Ray manages to successfully confuse Infinty, causing him to stop in his tracks and further fueling Divinebow's paranoia.

Infinity: <Ack! Alas, I feel quite dazed!>

The sword wildly thrashes around in the air, trying to get ahold of himself.

Divinebow: Infinity, you can pull through! Go get 'em with another Sacred Sword!

The sword continues to thrash around, his body shining with the blue glow from Sacred Sword. This time, he's desperately trying to make any sort of hit. Unfortunately, he completely overshoots his swipe and ends up plunging his blade-end into the ground next to the Feebas. He emits a yelp, trying to figure out what force is grasping him so tightly in his confusion while wriggling himself around.

Midnova's Test

Pirate: Arr! This be th' only true business model! Harrharrharr! Now, ready th' wave cannon! By which, I mean SURF, 'o course! Harrharr!

Feebas: <CANNON.>

-The Feebas creates a huge wave heading toward Infinity.-

Test Response

Divinebow: W-well then. That doesn't mean I'll give in, though...!

Infinity, unable to free himself from the ground in time, is pelted by the wave. The force exerted from the water is enough to press his body to the ground and bend his blade 45 degrees before plucking him out of the ground. He lies on the ground, feeling himself becoming increasingly lightheaded. On top of that, he sustained a rather debiliating injury in his bent blade.

Infinity: <Wow, you're sure proving your prowess... but as long as I'm not dismantled, I'll keep pressin' at it!>

Divinebow: Infinity, Night Slash!

Infinity slowly peeled himself off the ground, showing signs of fatigue as well as the confusion, but he pointed his bent blade at the Feebas as it became covered in a black miasma. Despite his impaired ability to slash, he swung himself toward the Feebas, this time trying to aim for the throat and potentially jam his blade inside it like a hook as he took his strike.

Midnova's Test

Feebas: <NO.>

-The Feebas is hit and knocked out by the Night Slash.-

Pirate: This... 'tis a mistake! Arrrrrgh!

-He falls to his knees, then jumps to his feet and runs away, sobbing.-

So yeah. That's that! You were already linked to the chat and such, so... yeah. Right! Yay. I don't know where I'm going with this, so... welcome!

(Ammon dodges the worst of the mud, but Stark gets a face full)

Stark: <Ack, mud, my one weakness!>

Blitz: Shake it off Stark, and give them a taste of their own medicine with Mud Slap! Ammon, light them up!

Ammon: <Playing dirty? Well take this!> (Ammon uses Ember)

Blitz's Test

(The first Nincada is struck by the Mud Slap.)

Nincada 1: <Ow, my eyes! Do you know how long it took me to get my eyes this green? You're, like, totally uncool!> (Mud Slaps again)

(The second Nincada is too busy screaming about how the Ember has set her on fire to respond.)

(Stark gets hit by the attack and tries to shake some of the mud from his own eyes)

Stark: <Ugh, says the one who started the mud slinging!>

Blitz: Hang in there Stark, get him with your Metal Claw! Ammon, use Bite while she's distracted!

Blitz's Test

(A combination of third-degree burns and being Bitten is enough to faint Nincada A.)

Nincada 1: <Gee, don't you lame-os have any manners? Why, I could just->

(She doesn't have time to state what she's going to do to Stark, as the Metal Claw sends her flying, never to return.)

Aaaand that's it! There doesn't seem to be anything wrong, so feel free to hop right in! Crow can link you to discussion and the chat since I'm a lazy bastard :P

Sweet, thanks! Guess now I just have to figure out how to integrate Blitz into the Kalos arc, or something. But that's what the discussion board and chat are for

Chat is here, or here if the first link comes up blank.

Discussion is here.

Bit late, but regarding Midnova's sign up post, I feel that the use of the word trap in regards to cross dressing is not appropriate. >_<

...I just now saw that in there (skimming >_>). Yeah, that's not appropriate.

Ack, I'm so sorry! I wasn't aware that the term is inappropriate/offensive, but I edited it out.

edited 21st Apr '14 11:52:29 PM by Midnova

It's fine. At least you know better now.

After marathon reading the other signups, I have decided to join up as well, if you would have me. Oh yeah, also Pyrrhic Pyroar

Then tragedy struck, his father, a Pokemon Ranger, was killed on assignment in Fiore by a sudden rock slide. A week later, the broken Styler was sent to his family along with his partner, a Zangoose named Ragna. Jason and his mother moved to Sinnoh soon after. As the years passed, Jason began to think more of the accident. He found it fishy. He was told the assignment was in Lyra Forest. A week later, he left home with Grim, now a Noctowl, and Ragna. despite his mother's protest. After finding nothing in Fiore, he began to travel the world in search of clues. He does not like it when people touch the Styler

Now for the mons.

It looks good to me, and conveniently enough our next arc is going to be set in the Ranger Regions so that might make things a bit easier for you once you're in. :P

Looks good. So many ranger characters recently, in contrast to how there was only one or two for a while

Arika: Huh, someone else with heterochromia.

But yeah, looks good, though mon personalities could use expansion in places.

I tried to expand on the personalities as well as I could. Just edited my post.

edited 30th Apr '14 12:49:39 PM by Skyzerk

That looks good. Mon personalities generally become a bit more solid once you actually start writing for them anyway, so no worries. :P

OK, looks like I'm testing you.

Skyzerk's Test
