Yo, yo, yo! How's it going? This will be my second story on this site, but hopefully it's one I'll, you know, actually update! Ehehe... ^-^'
Anyway, this is going to be a Nuzlocke story, involving two boys and a girl on a grand adventure. It will also involve cussing, and maybe some mature themes, so for that reason, it will be rated "M" for "Malignant". Well, not malignant. But it will be off-limits to anyone under the age of 13, if that means anything to anyone. Ehe...
So, without further ado, here are the character profiles!
Seth Hart
Age:16
Height: 5' 9"
Weight: 148 lbs
Likes:
• Water Pokemon
• Martial Arts
• French
Dislikes:
• Mexican Food
• Bug-Type Pokemon
• Disrespect (Towards anyone)
Description: An easy-going boy with a fervent wish. Thought Holly furiously denies this, he's the leader of their little group, as his calm rationality and problem-solving skills are put to good use in keeping his friends and their Pokemon out of harm's way. As a practitioner of both Aikido and Kenpo, his body is well-toned and lithe, capable of above-average flexibility, speed, and power. These martial arts also impose an honor system upon him. He will not fight a defenseless enemy, and he will only strike in self-defense. Nevertheless, he is very efficient at both. He cares for Alan like the boy was a younger sibling, which is echoed by Holly, and both are very protective of their young friend. Seth's gift is languages.
Holly Olivier
Age: 15
Height: 5' 5"
Weight: 127 lbs
Likes:
• Fire Pokemon
• Food
• Well-Mannered People (Her Opposite)
Dislikes:
• Rude People
• Bug-Type Pokemon
• Morons
Description: A pretty girl of French descent with a not-so pretty temper. She and Seth have been friends since childhood, though they fight about almost everything. One of the biggest issues she has is that he's older then her (by three months). She practices martial arts, like Seth, but uses much more aggressive styles like karate and kung fu. She has the same body type as Seth, lean and lithe, but is completely ambivalent about showing it off, wearing both concealing blouses and daring tanks with little preference to either. She loves Alan more then Seth does, and spends most of her time defending the boy by putting her foot up the ass of anyone who messes with him. Holly's gift is charm.
Alan Kellner
Age: 9
Height: 4' 1"
Weight: 76 lbs
Likes:
• Grass Pokemon
• Bandaids
• Bad Puns
Dislikes:
• Pain
• Death
• Fire
Description: A young boy who is absolutely adorable. He has a tragic past, but puts on a brave face for himself and his friends. He hides pain behind a silly, carefree demeanor. He loves cute Pokemon and any type of sweet. Unlike his older friends, he's physically incompetent, possessing no martial skills whatsoever, but he is a talented he loves both of his older friends as if they were his siblings, or even his parents (though, for all intents and purposes, they are), he tends to go to Seth with his problems, something that infuriates Holly. Alan's gift is empathy.
Now, what the holy hell are these "gifts", you may be asking yourself? Well, you'll have to wait for the prologue for that. Hahaha! Now, before that gets posted (as I have yet to write it), here are my two policies.
1. The Updating Policy
My policy on this is pretty simple: Life isn't scheduled, neither are my updates. I'll try to make them in a timely manner, but consider this: I am a second-year high school student. I'm on break now, but I'll have homework, projects, and studying to attend to. On top of that, my dad is disabled and my mom works all day, so I do most of the household stuff. I have two cats and a dog to take care of. I also have to write all the chapters you will read, and then edit them, and then type them up out of my notebook, and then spellcheck again, and then submit. Sometimes, life is easy and I'll update regularly. Other times, life is hard, so I'll update less during those times. Also, my policy on Nuzlocke is that the plot and Pokemon are taken playing the actual games through, and there are three characters...
So, I'm playing the Nuzlocke challenge on Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald. At the same time. Ehe...
2. My Policy on Reviews
I LOVE REVIEWS! In fact, I'm pretty sure any writer on this site loves a review, even if it's "LOL luv u ur sch a c0ol riter xoxoxoxoxo". It makes us feel all warm and fuzzy inside! However, I have rules on reviews too!
1. No flaming. It's annoying. No one likes hearing about how they suck. Read "#2"
2. No criticism unless it's constructive. "The characters are stupid!" doesn't tell me anything, besides the fact that you dislike my characters. Give me a reason! Tell me why! Are they bland? Are they too robotic? I can't improve unless you tell me what the problem is in the first place. Also, I love people who nitpick my grammar and spelling, because I abhor people without it. Honestly, if you've passed the 6th grade, you should be able to write properly. .
3. NO TROLLS. You know who you are.
Advertising is great, as long as it's only a note at the end of a REAL review. I'll be much more inclined to R&R something you wrote if you say something helpful about my story instead of just spamming links. :3
Bonus: The Nuzlocke Challenge
You could Google this, but I'll save you the trouble. If you already know it, don't skip this, because my rules are SLIGHTLY different. Basically, the Nuzlocke challenge is a "hard" mode for Pokemon. There are really only two rules of Nuzlocke:
When Pokemon "faint", they're really dead. In the games, you have to release them or box them and never touch them again. In stories, it's much more heartwrenching. *evil grin*
You have to catch the first Pokemon you encounter in each area. If it faints or runs away, no second chances. The exceptions are Pokemon you've already caught, members of an evolution line you've already caught, and roaming Legendaries. Generally, Shinies are excluded from this rule. The duplicate and evolution rules apply only to Pokemon that are alive. If your Geodude was killed you can get another. Also, you can't just run out of the area and run back in. The first Pokemon you catch there is the only Pokemon you will catch there. EVER.
I modified it using optional rules. The 1/3 chance of death rule is in play, as well as the nickname rule. Also, the death is also slightly up to reason. I'm sorry, but if your Pokemon is tackled into unconsciousness by a Rattata, that's not going to kill them. Sorry.
So, tell me what you think of the characters and my brutal rules! :D
