Shadow Sketches

Icarus. Time: 1st day of the Year of Rebirth. Noon Icarus had arrived to one of the common areas in the castle, here their were a dozen of separate rectangular tables layered with red tablecloth, all the tables had six single chairs padded with a red cushion for the sitters comfort and in the middle of each table they had their own steaming plates filled with freshly cooked eggs, brown sausages, crispy bread, and even slices of crumbly cheese. This was one of the areas where people would gather to get their daily meals, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner. On the far left wall there were many tall windows to allow the sun to beam light into the big room, and on the far wall there were doors to the kitchen that servants came busting through to refill drinks and plop more food on the tables for others. As Icarus walked in some people turned to see him, some of the men sitting at the far table gave him scowls and death glares. He definitely made his fair share of enemies as well as allies in this castle, but as he looked for which table to sit down at he noticed one of his allies, a servant that was slowly making her way to the kitchen doors. "Ah aren't you a sight for sore eyes! 'morning Mollie!" Icarus said as he walked over to the servant and crouched down to be "eye-level" with her, well maybe not eye-level as Mollie didn't actually have "eyes". After all, Mollie was a slime. Mollie was a pink slime that stood up to Icarus's waist, she was wearing a servant's maid outfit that was specially tailored to fit her unusual body and slightly enchanted with minor magic to keep the outfit from getting slimy and corroded. She was used mostly to transport objects from one part of the castle to another as she wasn't able to do much else so at the time she had a couple of dirty plates inside her body. Mollie began to gurgle softly in response, most castle dwellers have learned how to interpret her gurgles. Good Morning Icarus! I'm glad to see you are feeling well this morning. Icarus smiled as he understood what she had gurgled "I always feel well whenever I see your pretty face in the morning!" he complimented her, two dark pink spots started to materialize on her "face" side by side that might have looked like blushing. "You know I'd love to stay and chat with my favorite slime, but I need to go and get my breakfast before others gobble it all up" He said, Mollie gurgled in confirmation and went on her way to the kitchen to bring dirty plates to be cleaned. Icarus watched her go then went to sit at one of the nearest tables, grabbing himself a plate and fork, he plopped on as much food as the plate could hold before sitting down to enjoy his meal. Only two others were sitting at the table, they were both male Lizardmen that Icarus has seen around the castle from time to time and barely talked to. Still, he started conversation with them to see if they knew anything special about recent news but didn't end up getting any good information out of them. As they talked a servant came and poured Icarus a glass of water and left it next to his plate, Icarus then spent the rest of the meal eating and talking with the unimportant Lizardmen.

All right then, I'll just see how the others do it.

So I'll just assume that all vampires have this in this rp? Though that kind of makes me wonder why would anyone say no to getting their blood sucked every once in a while if it filled you with ecstasy. xD

You should insert a slime maid npc now just to spite me, I really want to see it now lol

I think you did a pretty good job with it, I definitely really like you character and am looking forward to seeing what you'll do with her. Btw it seemed like your maid "enjoyed" the blood sucking, do all Vamps bite have that effect or are you just special lol? I went with a Beast person just because I wasn't sure who else would make a good servant, I don't think there's going to be a slime walking around in a maid outfit lol xD

Icarus. Time: 1st of the Year of Rebirth. Right before noon. Icarus slowly opened his eyes as the sun somehow managed to peak in through the close curtains in his room, beaming at the perfect angle in order to shine on his eyes. He grunted annoyingly at being woken up, getting up and adjusting his curtains so the sun was completely blocked out. "So much for sleeping in today..." he mumbled to no one, his eyes quickly adjusted to the slight darkness that filled his room as his tail swayed slightly from side to side as if it too was trying to wake up. Stretching his arms he walked over and prepared his bath, cleaning himself quickly before getting dressed in his regular clothes. He put on his dark grey, light armor and the black cloak that he wears over it as well as putting on his padded black boots. Afterwards he straps his trusty silver chain and twin blades to his waist, hidden beneath his black cloak expertly, many people walk around the castle with their weapons on hand as there were a lot of beasts around here that could be easily provoked. Finally being fully prepared he walked through the door and out of his room, as he walked out he saw a young servant girl hurriedly walking past. She was small and frail, her messy brown hair pulled up to keep it out of her face though single hairs still managed to poke up, her delicate hands filled with dirty rags that were probably heading to be cleaned. "What's the hurry Elizabeth, don't you want to greet me a good morning?" he teased, the servant girl looked back at Icarus, walking back in a hurry she stopped and stood in front of him. "I'm very sorry Ic-Sir!" Elizabeth corrected herself as she bowed her head forward slightly in greeting, allowing him to see her furry, small brown feline ears. "I'm just heading to get these cleaned up, my mistress sent me out and wants me to return with haste in order to help her prepare herself for the day" She spit out in a hurry, she obviously did not want to upset her mistress. Most Beastmen servants were very timid as most had the traits of timid animals, Elizabeth here was fused with a cat as one could easily see by her strangely yellow eyes and slight whiskers sprouting from her cheeks. "All right Elizabeth, go on and do as you were told, I don't need your mistress being angry at me for keeping you from your duties" Icarus joked, usually Elizabeth was one that he would stop when he spotted her and ask her to give him any information and gossip she might have heard. Icarus had earned her trust and she knew not to tell anyone what she told him, he learned from experience that servants could be some of the most useful informants one could have. Though while she was in the middle of working, he wouldn't keep her for long as he knew it wouldn't do much good to get her in trouble. "Thank you Sir! I must go now, I hope you have a delightful morning!" Without another word she scurried off to complete her task, her furry tail swinging behind her as she went. Once she disappeared from sight, Icarus went the opposite direction in search of his morning meal.

Don't call him Emperor Pyon, you'll only encourage him

Can't wait to start this off, though does this mean that we can only get one pokemon each chapter or will there be other chances for us to get other pokemon throughout the chapter?

I actually really like the music that plays during Jhin's ult, it's really amazing tbh.

Lol I had planned to try and make a female for this one but I ended up deciding against, the female was still there though in my oc's bio ;P

Me funnally gotz druwing tubletz, so me decide to givs u purrty artz, me mades it rlly purrty Rults doings kawaii swifts. Giv me muney fur me purrty artz!

Sounds cool, I'd love to participate as I haven't been able to be a part of a Pokemon rp, hopefully this can be an interesting first one to try it out, I'll start on my app ASAP

Welp, I'll try not to hold any of you back and to keep up with ya'll, trial by fire makes it more exciting~! >:3

Last one in, I made it just in time #calculated~ I think that sounds like a cool plan, though are we introducing the characters when they just got into the castle or after the gates have been opened? Because I would love to flesh out how my character ended up trapped in the castle.

Ah all right, if they were on purpose then it's fine~

Woo! More Heartless Souls content for my reading pleasure~ I really enjoyed getting a lil more background on the Free Races and the Damned, it's really interesting to think that the Underdark tried to work out a compromise with the humans. But I guess we know how that turns out, huh? One thing thou, I noticed quite a bit of typos throughout the story that you might want to go back and skim through the chapter to fix, but other than that it was a nice job. Can't wait to read more about Heartless Souls' history.

*stars dancing and singing along* For real thou, happy B-Day! Hope you have a good one, you seem like a cool dude from the limited experiences I've had with you lol.

Meanwhile, I'm the scrub that has never played DnD Lol seriously thou, I think I have the idea of the power levels of each tier (somewhat at least).

I actually love the idea of Reborn having it's own animated show, I love pokemon and everything but I hate how cheesy and kiddish the animated show is! :/ But like others I have to agree that this is a big task to take, animation on it's own could take people a loooooooong time to do and it would probably cost quite a bit of money (especially if you want to have really good fighting scenes). Of course it would be an amazing thing to see if it did happen, so if Ame gives permission I say go for it and give it your all! And can you have the main character go with Chimchar as the starter? K, thx
