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

[Dragonstrike]

At some point, Ventus could also realize that Orthros himself isn't a problem because of the kind of person Nathan is and how he's raised the dog.  If someone like Ventus were to raise a Delta Houndour, that would be more of a problem.

That's all I'll say for right now. There's more I want to say, but now is not the time.

[Dragonstrike]

On a completely different note, Crustle's last Rock Wrecker has quite the interesting accuracy roll now that I look at it again...it had one (1), two (2)s, and three (3)s. And they were all sorted, too (but not in numerical order since it went 231).  Lol.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

NEWS FLASH: If it turns out that Stone is a Delta Houndnite, Ventus will retroactively keep the stone and find a way to destroy it at the first opportunity. If that's not possible and it turns out he unwittingly gave away a Delta Houndoonite, then you better never let him find out...

A bit late for taking it back.  Now you see why I was interested in it, though: Delta Houndoominite is Red with Purple swirls.  Sablenite is Yellow with Red and Purple swirls.  It's probably Sablenite, but I figured I would take it even if Nathan can't use it, since nobody can use it atm, and Ditto was the one who found it.

I stated I wanted Delta Houndoominite the moment we saw it was a thing months ago, so please don't take it away whenever I finally do get it, because it's unlikely we'll ever get more than one, and I'd be VERY upset IC and OOC if that happened.

Let me say this: If they get access Mega Delta Houndoom, I'm having Ventus leave the group effective immediately. No ifs, ands, or buts. Period.  I'll just get my back up character ready and sorted out with Iron, and we'll all move on from there. Or not, if Iron doesn't let me back into the game, but I'm chill with that too. Ven fearfully tolerates Orthros as a Houndour, and that will carry over when its a Houndoom, but its Mega Version, though? He's not going to abide by that by any means, and will promptly leave the group in disguist/terror, as he'll refuse to work with Nathan at that point and loose any last semblance of faith in them.

I know you want that, Dragonstrike, but Ventus will not stand by and let you have the very same powers/ability that plunged an entire TOWN into a nightmare zone that potentially crippled even Chuckles. He doesn't trust ANYONE with that sort of power, let alone (in his eyes) a stubborn boy that is WAY too close to the species in question. I'll be sad that my character has to go because of this and more than a little pissed, but its the only way option I available that doesn't break Iron's rules about limiting other character's choices or causes massive IC conflict that derails the whole campaign. Better to restart from scratch with somebody that has no conniptions or glaring flaws that put them in constant conflict with multiple party members, then try to make work what will not.

You know what, people?... Is a Mega Stone that valuable to cause a character that has become my in-chara partner and outta-chara a person I really like RPing worth to leave the group and berave me of a lot of fun I'm having in this campaign, AND making a player (Windos) take such a drastic step of bidding farewell to their chara?

 NO, IT IS NOT.

Please forgive me for being so direct about this and not desirering to keep shut, but if Ventus leaved because of that, I'll be more than pissed, devasted, and you know how Shiva in-chara will react towards you, Nathan, we'll be practically done with one another. Iron, please don't.... It'll simply cause way too many problems, for all of us to a different amount, but certainly more than it's worth. :C Why, oh why...?

I'm not the one you need to convince here. I stated I want to get one, still do for many reasons in and out of character, and it's not changing.  That's been known for months.  I'm not changing my stance on the matter now.

Forgive the bluntness, but I REALLY don't want to be discussing this now if there's no need to. Just please wait for Iron to show up and confirm it's a sablenite instead of causing a scene over a comment I had Nathan make.

[Spiritmon]

I can't be out for a day until chaos appear again. Both of you: Lord Windos and Dragonstrike you are overreacting. I can understand the reasons of Ventus fear Othros and the desire of destroy a Mega Stone of Delta Houndoom but leave the group and let Shiva/Phantom be that sad and devastated? Also Heart would too avoid that.

Also Dragonstrike, as much Heart like Delta Pokemon and different from the others he kinda your psychic dog, I think it's not a good idea to bring a Mega Delta Pokemon to avoid more conflict and of course relieved dark memories from the group. Nathan/You should know more than anyone how much difficult, pain and suffer the others go though to deal with the Delta Dog.

I just putting my opinion here. If it is a Delta Houndirinite you can use by your choice, but know you might follow a path with no return. I not critique here Dragonstrike you this time like I did in the past I just saying what might happen. And Lord Windos please avoid leave the group. For Phantom sake please. Her character love Ventus a lot and Phantom herself love you too.

[PhantomUnderYourDesk]

Only partly correct, Dragon. You were interested in that Megastone before already, you've put work into using that Deltadog and me and Ven went through a little chara-development to accept that dog to the degree that's within our chara's range - what I am, please exuse me, NOT getting is why you're so adamant about it when you could have already guessed and now as well read how much conflict it causes. Regardless of the stone we've now found turns out to be a Sableite or some different stone, it's not worth it, and I'm not getting why you're still following the desire to obtain one, why you're showing yourself willing to force Ventus out of the group, heartbreak my chara and eventually likely and ruthelessly destroy the 'friendship' Nathan's sharing with Shiva.

I don't want that, it's not fun and I'm so tired and sad over the headache this is causing... Me and Windos have soft-planned several things we want to do experience and play out together, I don't want all these things to bite the dust. I'm not blaming Ventus for leaving the group when he outta-chara expressed why he'd do that, but I simply do not want that to happen... People, one more thing, you have the Celadon Campaign to have you're fun to heart's content. Me, I'm happy to concentrate on the Skull Ruins Campaign, so all I'd like is that the joy I'm having about playing here won't be killed, I don't desire for Ventus to leave for whatever reason. Is that too much to ask for?



Fine... I'll continue my Encounter then, so that we all can move on.

[Iron]

I will try to post HP reminders. The end of 3 Encounters is about an 8 hour period.

And yep, no spamming of healing moves. 3 or 4 in a day is about the limit.

Thank you!  Though that technically leaves one of the 8 hour spans in a 24 hour day unaccounted for, but I'm sure we'll figure it out!

3-4 times per day for healing moves.  Gotcha.  Well everyone, remember that if we desperately need healing, Ditto can Transform into a Clawitzer to help out a bit!  Just gotta remember the limitations on Ditto's Transformations.  (Speaking of which, that reminds me: can Ditto retransform into something it's already Transformed into that same day without taking up an additional Transformation slot?)

I had a pretty interesting Friday the 13th as a human in real life. Remember how my truck broke down? I went to go retrieve it from the mechanic (1.5 hours away), and he said he had lost the key. > : [ Still wasn't fixed.

Luckily I had a spare with me (hidden underneath the truck in a magnetic box), but he couldn't give me a call to see if I had a spare?

Ouch.  At least everything is still kinda working out, I guess?  Hope it gets fixed soon!

Some of your hours are taken up with hiking, digging, setting up camp, that sort of thing. And the extra dangers you may run into. 

Let's make it three unique Transformations.

Iron!~ My, you're on early today. As said, I just wanted to continue my Encounter, post incoming.

[Iron]

No. I'm not going to tolerate using your character as leverage to keep Nathan from enjoying a Pokemon he has chosen for his party. That's bullying too - and it's also bullying the GM.

If you are that attached to Ventus, find a way to develop your character so he's not impacting the fun of others, and do it before the Mega Houndoomite arrives. Windos chose that character trait for Ventus, so the onus is on him, not on Dragonstrike. You've got time.

This particular stone is Sablenite though. The swirl is the part that's purple and pinkish. I was thinking Mega Stones were generally a clear white color with a colored swirl inside, but I see now that they all have a tint to the main body of a stone.

Had to get up early for D&D soon!
