[Meta thread] Iron's PokeRole Adventure: The Skull Ruins

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

*shrugs* I definitely want to hand that Casta-Clay-Thing with the network of wires and mikrochips (that's still in my possession) to Professor Mallorn to analyze it and ask him to keep me updated over his findings.

I'm not sure what we should do with that.  There is something I've been thinking about concerning the loot, though, which I've already mentioned in the meta thread for the Celadon campaign.

Assuming it's okay with everyone else, I'd like Nathan to hold on to the Neverstone so if Kirlia evolves into Gardevoir before he uses a Dawn Stone, the process can be reversed.  Plus, it'll give him easy access to Misty Terrain (normally an egg move)  and Wish (a move only Gardevoir can learn).  Nathan will have to ask Kirlia about his opinion of this plan as well.

I'm not reading through the Celadon Campaign in every detail and think the campaigns should not be mixed or compared too much or at all. I found that Casta Clay thing and see no wrong with doing with it what me and Shiva find the best option.

I'm totally fine if you want the Neverstone, I personally have no use for it, so go ahead. ^^

Ven's not quite sure if he wants to destroy it himself, or study how it works in closer detail. He's a Behavioral Pokémon Researcher/ Sociologist , but he's not uninterested in other scientific or technological fields of research, and is almost always happy to learn something new (Magical/Arcane/Fae/Information for Intruding Voices in his head non-withstanding). The thing is clearly has magical/elemental powers of some nature, which his a turn off for him, but he's a natural curious bugger that want to know about the enemy AMAP, so he's a bit divided on how to deal with them.

Sure, you can have the Neverstone! Only reason Ven would want to use it is to devolve either Raphael or Apsis to help learn more move/learn them less costly, but given that Raphael has taken a HUGE Happiness hit and I like have a giant snek as a bodyguard, using the de-evolution stone is not something I savor doing atm. Just have Nathan ask for it/hold onto to it, and Ventus would give it over to him with no complaint. That is, unless you give him reason not to hand over the item...don't know how you would do that, but I've quickly learned that everything is possible in this Campaign!

It was something that briefly came up while we were discussing Romeo's Gallade.  Windos mentioned that Nathan is gonna be rather ridiculous when he finally gets Kirlia to evolve.  Sadly, that'll be a long time in the making yet...comparisons between the campaigns have been rather minimal.

It doesn't hurt to know the Enemy (in this case, the Scimitars) just as Ventus speechifies, and Professor Mallorn feels like the person to turn to for the sake of finding out more!~ Like, that's why he's coming to Ginger Town meeting us at all... Researching the items on our own sounds like quite a hassle when Prof. can do that way better.

All things considered, while my campaign has the same base rules as Iron does in most matters, we use different Rulebooks and I've made SEVERAL modification to quite the number of element, plus it has more of an mission/encounter base structure rather than a truly organic story-timeline. I'm fine with comparisons between the two campaigns, especially regarding Combat and Pokémon discussion, but comparing either of the games requires differentiating the two and comparing them by their own merits. Since everyone seems perfectly happy to keep Inter-thread communication to a minimual, though, I've decided not to try and mingle the two together, unless its especially pertinent info that is revelevant to Iron's and my own game.

I'm not getting why both Corebooks, that one with and without Alolamon, have Gardevoir listed to learn Stored Power at Level/XP 80 twice. Typing error?

Certainly not the only errata in the book.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Errors in the precious Corebook?! Oh noes!

Besides, @Lord Windos, we can surely hold more Nasty Plot Tutoring Sessions with Raphael, just ask Shiva in-game for it. I'll challenge Gym Leader directly after the Running, so there should be time for tutoring until then. However, even if both my Electric rodents help tutoring, I feel it'll nevertheless only grant 1 autosuccess.
