The continent Ignotus - thoroughly isolated by the storms that surrounded it for centuries, it was a permanent fixture in both myth and fiction. When they ceased five years ago people were quick to investigate.What they found was a tropical continent filled with pokemon that adapted to whole new habitats, ancient ruins and a tribe of silent people. The continent is an international unknown
.
Which is where you tried to come in. Youapplied to join one of the continents three Exploration Guilds but were rejected for some reason or another. Instead you were approached by the impossibly rich and eccentric Captain Barbarossa, who was also denied access to the unknown wilds of Ignotus but intends to explore them anyway.
You will be one of his crew members on the Stolen Janissary, exploring Ignotus' unknown south-western islands.
I'm looking for 3-4 players to explore Ignotus
You guys will start at trainer level 5, with a level 15 starter and 7000P. Starter must be a 3 stage underdog that isn't a pseudo. It gets 2 inheritance moves - one that it knows at the start of the game and one that it gets at either level 20 or 30. These moves must obey the September Playtest rules.
Your trainer needs to be between 16 and 21 - you're young but not inexperienced.
You also will get some survival gear provided, haven't decided what yet.
All base classes are available, along with the non-supernatural classes from Game of Throh's and Jailbreaker from Porygon Dream.
Banned Material:
- Supernatural Classes
- The Upgrader & Engineer brnches of Researcher
- All the Blessed and the Damned material
The supernatural classes will become eventually become available, and the Blessed and the Damned may.
Weapons are pretty normal for explorers, not so much in normal society.
Non type-shifted pokemon will be extremely rare in the wild - make a note of type syncs you like the idea of and any pokemon you really want to be normal on your character sheet.
We're using all the playtest material and be warned - your characters will have to survive in the wilderness with little support.
Recruitment will end on Friday the 16th of September (Australian Time).
And make sure to join the Skype chat here
The next part is spoilers for Sun and Moon, so feel free to skip it. I'll keep them out of the chat as much as possible, but no promises if a hammerhead shark gets revealed.
Obviously the type-shifted pokemon are regional variations I'm inventing - though I'll make use of the ones revealed for Alola
SETTING INFORMATION
In the north west of Ignotus is Argenport, the largest settlement and the base for both the Tourmaline and Sardonyx Exploration Guilds. A day's journey south is the town of Calico, where the primary industries are mining and woodcutting and the Lapis Exploration Guild is based. To the west is the town of Taytamba, where the silent Tavel Tribe lives.
Argenport was the first settlement since it's the port. Calico is where stone, metal and wood comes from, so the two towns are fairly similar. Argenport is just bigger.
It is known that there are several tribes of natives on the continent. The only tribe any guild has contacted thus far is the Tavel Tribe, who's patron is Uxie, Uxie is revered as the last echo of the world that was, with the professor finding that the local Uxie is likely a Fairy/Electric type. The Tavel Tribe is eternally silent, due to a collective oath taken out of grief for some unknown sin.
At least 2 other tribes exist, followers of the fiery Mespirit and the icy Azelf.
