What'cha want, a diary? The Pup Writes~!

[PupSpace]

Just figured I'd lay out some basics, get things started here. This post will have basic info about me, and a directory to updates and posts and update logs.

Quoted from my intro thread:

Hello there, everybody! My name is Tema, but I'll be going by the name PUP in-game! I'm selecting a Chikorita for my starter, because my partner/fiancee is a fan of the Chikorita line.

I JUST loaded up the game and the music is seriously got me pumped right now. Great job, designers!

I'm an artist by trade, a senior in the Art IB program, HL, and in May I'll be graduating and going to my local university for a BFA in illustration. I'm great at painting and drawing, but digital art is still pretty new to me. Some of my work is below, as well as a few sprites I've done. I have five Pokemon characters. They're the Bulbasaur in the picture down there, the Shinx, the two Pokemon in the (I'll admit, low-quality) sprite below, and a Bayleef designed after my fiancee. I have several ideas, mainly off of themes or fusions, that I'll hopefully draw later and create more deeply.

Shinx-Charmander and Charmander-Shinx.jpg

I've been playing Pokemon since I was very young, and I was born a few months after the games first came out in Japan. My first game was FireRed, and I ALWAYS chose Charmander. Since, I've played several of the games. I just finished X and I'll hopefully get to work on AS soon. I just keep getting bored/stuck. I played on the original Pokefarm.org since it started, and I'm currently obsessed with PokeHeroes. I play a lot of games, but Pokemon has always - and will always - have my heart.

I'm also a leader, in lots of ways. I'm the curator of my school's National Art Honor Society, which means I hang up displays and stuff. I also attend the Interntional Thespian Society and I'm a theatre nerd. I'm in my 6th production! I'll be continuing with community theatre when I have time.

I'm running out of things to say. Ahh...well, I'll start updating about my journey and thoughts HERE in a bit.

My traditional art is all too high-res to upload, but I might add a link future-tense to where I host some of it.

Current RP's and Characters

Under the Hill: Accepted, awaiting possible time to jump in.

Character:

Character name: Eva Sharpe

Appearance: Short and olive-skinned with black hair that flops in her face all over the place, blue eyes. She wears dark greens and browns, brown cargo pants, a tan belt, tan undershirt, green T-shirt, dark green jacket with chest, base, and a single sleeve pocket on her left side. She has a backpack with side pockets, a main pocket, a middle pocket, and a front pocket. She carries a notebook, a first-aid kit, a folding knife, a lighter, and a survival kit. Attached to the bottom of the bag are two folding wrist-crutches.

Age: 19

Personality Overview: She's quiet and thoughtful and primarily chooses not to speak. She instead prefers sign-language, writing, or diagram-drawing. She's a bit too trusting but highly skittish. Intelligent but easily swayed as well.

Backstory: She was non-verbal for a long part of her life and was born with a fatigue disorder. She used a wheelchair for a long period of time, but chose to work on walking more the older she got. When she heard about the hill, though, she promised to abandon them instead for walking and sometimes using crutches. She didn't even know if she could do it, but she managed and is now ready to tackle The Hill, which is why she's so late to the party. Her only goal: proving herself.

Ability/Cost: She's got an ability to heal herself and others, but it only works to an extent, takes time to happen, and exhausts her. If she heals someone else she has to take on their malady, to an extent, and when she heals herself she exhausts herself more than healing others. She can stop bleeding, mend wounds, etc. but cannot bring people back to life or prevent scarring or remove larger problems. She cannot remove shrapnel or tumors, etc. with her ability but can cut them off from the main body, same with internal bleeding or infections.

Surge Story: Awaiting open slots, no news on character validity.

Character:

Char. Name: Damien Blake

Char. Age: 19

Starting partners: Growlithe (Flare) and Meowth (Lightning)

Personality: Playful and silly, he's often not as serious as he should be. However, he's passionate and intelligent enough to play the part needed of him. He's brand-new to the war, but not to the military, as he attended a military school in the years leading up to the war, while the country was under martial rule. He was threatened with expulsion a few times in early training, but proved overall a good fit for the war as a whole, and with not enough people to ensure the safety of the country he was taken on.

Appearance: Tall and lean, Damien tops out at 5'11 and has a thin layer of muscle mass. He's more suited to speed and agility than overall strength. Long brown hair tightened back against his scalp with a band and golden-brown eyes that are bright for adventure. Tanned skin, calloused hands, and mechanical knowledge come from his early years working on his family's farm, which was subsidized to the government after his father and brothers died in the infections. He's got a very light accent, only really noticable to those well-versed in southern dialect.

Backstory: Damien was never spared from the details of wartime, and knew in his bones what was happening to the country he was so proud of. When his dad died he was shipped off to a military school located on Ft. Benning. The school aimed to educate kids and figure out who was good for the main military. Damien, however, was shuffled into intensive classes and training far before his peers, his logical mind lending itself to the new programs coming up.

When graduation came, Damien was finally told about what loomed ahead of him, if he chose to persue the program. He took the examinations and passed, albeit with significant concerns about his ability to follow orders. He understood and interpreted what was desired of him, but he had a tendency to work independantly when that worked in his favor.

Home state/town: mid west Georgia, near Ellerslie.

Other/ additional details: Has, in the year of basic training and education on the GAOs, developed better skills at following orders, but lacks the ability to be motivated to others' goals. Highly self-motivated. Assigned a wild-caught partner (Growlithe) and took in a hatchling (Meowth). Was shipped out to the main group recently.

Pokemon SoulSilver Nuzlocke!!

Player: Tyler

Rival: Heiru

Starter: Lucas the Chikorita

This is an easier one, with the following rules:

1. One Pokemon per area, excluding legendaries and events (Red Garados) and considering the "dupes rule," meaning if the pokemon is one I already have a species of I can ignore it and try again.
2. All Pokemon must be nicknamed
3. If a Pokemon faints it is dead and goes in the dead box but is not released.

Play session 1, 2/9/15

Adopted Lucas and started my journey! Caught a female Hoothoot and named her Athena. Route 29 is down! Found a Hoothoot on Route 30 and ignored it under the Dupes rule. Waiting for a new Poke. Caught a Rattata named Matt. Gonna save and quit for tonight.
