[X] My Assistant

[Xires]

You sit, silently, in the darkness. You are in the belly of a prison boat, moving towards it's destination. You look down, thinking about your crimes-or, perhaps, your lack thereof- and sigh. This journey will soon be coming to an end, this much you know. You can already feel the boat slowing down, being harassed by what you assume to be a strong tide. Soon you feel the boat breach against the shore and are suddenly blinded by a bright light.

The source of the light soon becomes obvious, and sadly dims quickly, as you are pushed towards it by some rough looking guards. A hatch has opened in the hull, and you are being led out of it to who knows where. Wherever it is, however, it can't be good. Out of the corner of your eye, you see something... disturbing. There is a snap and a crunch, a cry for help silenced halfway. Before you can process what exactly it was that you saw, you are forced along out of the boat.

You stumble onto the beach with the other inmates. You barely have time to look around before you are pushed forwards by the guards once again. Thunder storms violently through the sky, a storm brewing dangerously. A harsh, heavy rain stings your eyes as you attempt to look about over the heads, or perhaps between the feet, of the other inmates. A massive, what appears to be iron wall surrounds the majority of the island, most likely a defensive measure against those being kept here. Inland, the Island looks just as dark and foreboding as the sky above.

It is a large, mostly granite island, with what little shrubbery you can see appearing a dark green and tough foliage. Three hardy looking buildings are visible from your location, and you, along with the others, are hustled towards them before you get to see much else. There is no use fighting back, the guards are powerful, mean, and impatient. Instead, you stagger forth into a small clearing, pounded down by the feet of many other pokemon. you have a terrible feeling about this.

You, along with the other inmates, are forced into a large, circular area. Other, older inmates watch warily from outside. The area is devoid of any plant life, made of pounded down dirt form scuffles and loitering. In the center, there are seven pokemon. one appears to be a regular Simisear, with the notable exception that he is a bit overweight. He's wearing the Warden hat and the Warden symbol, a rather angry looking Seviper coiled around a spear, is tattooed into his right shoulder, denoting his authority as a warden. Another is a regular looking Scizor with a sour look on his face. He also wears the warden hat and the tattoo is inscribed on the 'eyes' of his claws. His warden's cap is older, but not so old that it's falling apart. He appears haggard. The Third warden is a Garchomp, covered in scars of all shapes and sizes. a small section of his dorsal fin has been cut off, and he's missing his right toe. Despite this, the most notable thing about him is the fact that he has a Metal Ball instead of his left eye. He wears a very old, faded Warden's cap and the Warden Tattoo is placed right in the center of the X on his face. He is scowling.

Accompanying them is an incredibly large Crawdaunt. He is wearing the executioner's cowl, it's colored a deep black, and is rather worn. His claws are covered in the blood of past executions. It is quite obvious that HE is the executioner. The other three pokemon, a Gothitelle, a Torterra, and an Aggron are on their knees, heads on the executioner's blocks. The Gothitelle is crying her eyes out, scared out of her mind. The Torterra seems gruff, and unfeeling. The Aggron is struggling angrily, shouting obscenities. The three wardens seem uncaring. The Garchomp speaks up.

"Hello, inmates. My name is Kargin, the Head Warden. Welcome to insula damnatorum princeps, or, as we like to call it, Prison Island. We have few rules. The first rule is...No backtalk." As he says the first rule, the crawdaunt moves up to the Aggron, and, with one swift movement, cuts off the beast's head. It falls to the ground with a thump. everything is silent, for a moment.

"Rule number two. respect those under your rank."As the Garchomp's voice cuts through the air, The torterra is executed. It is silent once more, save the Gothitelle blubbering over herself.

"Rule three... The are no rules." The gothitelle is executed, and it is silent once more. The three wardens and the Executioner leave the area, leaving the three dead corpses behind. As soon as they are out of sight, the Inmates on the edge begin to move in. Some look at the corpses with varying emotions. Others move in towards the newer recruits, already beginning to harass them. You can already tell life is going to be tough here.

In a bout of unfeeling emotion, still surprised at what had just taken place, you exit the gathering area for the newer inmates and towards a small, inclined outcropping where you can be alone to think. There is no way your petty crime ended you up here, right...? It must all be some big mistake. It is decided, you have to escape this place, somehow. You'll be damned if you end up stuck here forever, although you doubt you'll survive that long...

This RP will contain topics such Death, abuse, and Psycological games. Those with weak hearts are advised not to try joining. Professionals are preferred. LONG PARAGRAPH POST ONLY. Signed up users have ONE warning.

In addition to the characters listed below, I will also be dictating the events going on around other peoples characters at any given time. Limited to ONE profile that is ALIVE at a time. If you wish to make another profile, the character you are in control of must perish first. Autohits and autokills are NOT allowed, and a character will only die if the person in charge OR I say so.

CODE

[b]Name:[/b]
[b]Age:[/b]
[b]Species:[/b]
[b]Appearance:[/b]
[b]Infraction class:[/b]
[b]General Personality:[/b]

C: a minor infraction. you have done something wrong, but it was not entirely bad. survival in this class is easier.
B: A medium infraction. Pokemon that aren't always entirely there are assigned this class. They are quite dangerous. Survival will be tough, but quite possible.
A: Major infraction. They have committed a major crime, and would not hesitate to do so again. Be warned, survival in A class is incredibly difficult.
X: Death row. housed with the A class, if you are assigned X, you WILL die.

Prison Yard: This is a place of lawlessness and force. Only the strongest survive, and often, they thrive. The conditions are harsh and unfeeling. The prison yard, in essence, is a large circular area devoid of plant life in the center of the Island. It is approximately 500 meters across the diameter, and once per month, all new pokemon inmates, ranks X-C, are released into it. Hopefully, you survive. It is considered to be disrespectful to kill a class lower than you, but killing one higher than you may gain you some respect.

The Houses: These are where some of the pokemon from the different classes bunk down for the night, assuming they haven't died or, even worse, gotten lost during the day. They vary in comfort by the rank. The lower the rank, the greater the comfort. Bunking down outside of a house for the night is considered dangerous, and, should you survive it, very impressive. However, staying in one of these houses to bed down for the night is also dangerous, as criminals of all sorts gather for the night.

The Forest: Danger lurks in every corner in the forest. Wild pokemon, and by the definition of wild they are not friendly, claim this scraggly, windbitten excuse for a forest home. Be careful here. It is rumored that a very large, mutated Pinap Berry bush lie in the Heart of the forest, though not many know the importance of this bush. For some reason, the Berries are all stained a dark purple. In addition, some rarer fruits grow here, forming a sort of black market on prison island. Those that have them have power.

The Caves: Only the bravest or most foolhardy ever enter the caves. Those that actually do return have gone insane. There are no wild pokemon, no obvious dangers inside of these 'cursed' caves, but many believe a danger much more mindbendingly terrifying hides in these forsaken places. Despite this, some inmates choose to make their home here, relying on the superstitious nonsense of the others to keep them alive.

The Beaches: the landing ground for new inmates, others are forbidden from this place on 'entering' days. It is relatively the safest place to be, given that you aren't in a storm. During stormy weather, the tide grows so powerful it could beach an entire group of wailords, or sweep an anchored Metagross out to sea. The tides will sometimes bring in resources from the outside, so scavengers have been known to mull about here.

The Oceans: This is the small oceanic confines within the Iron Wall. it is just as hazardous as the rest of the island, filled with sharp edged coral reefs and Native pokemon that don't take to kindly to strangers. Rumor has it if you go down deep enough, you'll discover the remains of something terrible.

WARDENS:

Name: Huey Gembra
Age: 37
Species: Simisear
Appearance: Huey appears to be a regular Simisear, with the notable exception that he is a bit overweight. He's wearing the Warden hat and the Warden symbol is tattooed into his right shoulder, denoting his authority as a warden. The cap is a brighter blue than the other wardens, revealing that he is a bit newer to Prison Island.
Role: Warden-C
General Personality: Huey is a bright, happy go lucky fellow who is respected by the C class. He is generally very calm and collected, but should he lose his temper, it's revealed he can take many prisoners at once in a fight. Despite this, he is generally the easiest Warden to deal with. Some claim that he can be bribed using some of the rarer fruits that grow deep in the island, though these fruits are heavily regulated by those who have them.

Name: Carpus Iros
Age: 28
Species: Scizor
Appearance: Carpus is a regular looking Scizor with a sour look on his face constantly. He also wears the warden hat and the tattoo is inscribed on the 'eyes' of his claws. His warden's cap is older, but not so old that it's falling apart. He appears constantly haggard, regardless of his current emotion.
Role: Warden-B
General Personality: Carpus tolerates much less shenanigans than Huey does. He is a very honorable pokemon, and sometimes it shows quite clearly. His punishments are humane, yet stern, and he will not tolerate to move someone to A-Class should they be too much for him to handle. He knows his way around the Island, and is generally the first one to separate a fight.

Name: Kargin 'Ironeye' Telerac
Age: 57
Species: Garchomp
Appearance: Kargin is covered in scars of all shapes and sizes. a small section of his dorsal fin has been cut off, and he's missing his right toe. Despite this, the most notable thing about him is the fact that he has a Metal Ball instead of his left eye. He wears a very old, faded Warden's cap and the Warden Tattoo is placed right in the center of the X on his face. He always wears a scowl.
Role: Warden-A/X
General Personality: Kargus is mean to the bone, and tolerates no funny business. His punishments are unusually harsh, and he has never been known to praise. he's been known to bump people of any rank up to X class on bad days, and uses his power of authority over not only the inmates, but also the other wardens, as much as he can, to the point where it is considered tyranical. He is actually quite proud of his nickname, but only those he deems worthy may use it when they refer to him.

Name: Jackson Polobos
Age: 43
Species: Crawdaunt
Appearance: Jackson is an incredibly large Crawdaunt. He is constantly wearing the executioner's cowl, so that no one has ever seen his true face. His claws are covered in the blood of past executions, and when he does clean them, they are stained with that blood.
Role: Executioner
General Personality: Jackson, or just Jack for short, doesn't talk much. In fact, he doesn't talk at all. He is silent and unwavering when it comes to killing an X class, on they day they are to be executed. Thankfully, he hasn't much of a bloodlust, so Execution days are never rushed. However, It's said if you bring him his favorite food, a Pinap berry, He'll postpone an execution day. The only place to find Pinap berries, however, are very deep in the forest.

INMATES:

Name: Olivia Desopt
Age: 26
Species: Mawile
Appearance: The first noticable, and perhaps most important, thing about her is the dual muzzles around both of her mouths. The one around her 'Maw' is large and made so that the mouth cannot open at all. it is made of an incredibly durable dark grey material, powerful enough to withstand a team of tyranitars pulling at each end. The one on her regular mouth is one usually worn by Asylum patients, the one with bars in the front to keep her from biting anyone. There is a large padlock attached to each muzzle, and the one around her regular mouth looks quite worn and scratched. She also wears a small earring in her left 'ear'.
Infraction class: B
General Personality: Olivia was infringed for 'The unauthorized consumption of pokemon meat' and 'first degree homicide.' That's right, she killed and ate a pokemon. Police believed she had had many more victims, but could not prove it whatsoever, hence why she is only B class instead of A or X. She is very sly and cunning, and sometimes a bit manipulative. However, she is known to be shy with pokemon much larger or with a type advantage against her. Be wary around her, as she lives up to the name 'Deceiver pokemon.'

Name: Dean Terkis
Age: 32
Species: Scrafty
Appearance: Dean is what one would refer to as an 'Alpha Scrafty'. his Mohawk is much larger than other scrafty's at first glance. It's been cut and stylized to that it is spiky, unlike the usual square cut that normal scrafty have. He has huge circles under his eyes, most likely from not getting sleep. A Tattoo of Raquayza circles down each of his arms, their heads ending just above his wrist. The 'Pants' and 'Hood' are a slightly darker tone than usual as well.
Infraction class: Varies between C, B, and A
General Personality: Dean's constant flippant remarks are the cause of his fluctuating rank, The Wardens can't seem to decide how to better him. It has been suggested multiple times that he be moved to X class, but his behavior is not nearly terrible enough to warrant for it. On a bad day, he can make Three ranks changes in an hour. He generally a rude, immoral ruffian of a pokemon, but he's been around long enough to know the ins and outs of staying alive on the Island.

Name: Marigold 'Mad Mary' Chlorof
Age: 26
Species: Leavanny
Appearance: Mad Mary has the appearance of a regular Leavanny.
Infraction class: A
General Personality: Marigold Chlorof was known for a long time as the Egg Taker. She was called this because of her unique style. She would sneak in during the night and kill the parents of a newly made egg, and then take the egg for herself. From this point, she would nurture the egg till it hatched, and then kill the newly born pokemon out of frustration. It's rumored this was because she was infertile. In prison, she's usually very quiet, and prefers to stay on the sidelines. That doesn't keep most everyone from being creeped out by her, however. The native pokemon have caught on to her nature, and tend to stay away from her.

Name: Kyle Spiralov
Age: 24
Species: Spinda
Appearance: Kyle has the appearance of a regular Spinda. He has two spots, one located over his left eye, and one on the very end of his right ear. The top of his head is somewhat scruffy.
Infraction class: C
General Personality: Taken into the Island for Theft on a grand scale, Kyle is one of the less dangerous inmates. This does not, however, excuse him from being among the most intelligent. He uses Teeter dance to his advantage, and does so well. He's among the greatest strategists on the Island, which is perhaps why he's managed to make friends with Mad Mary, although the term friendship is loose. tracking him is hard due to his winding movements.

Name: Joshua Shirs
Age: 32
Species: Mightyena
Appearance: Joshua happens to be a shiny, but he looks quite worse for wear. His entire tail is missing, and large patches of fur have been scraped away. It is quite obvious this golden coated pokemon gets into a lot of fights.
Infraction class: A
General Personality: Joshua has been on the Island for a very long time. It is quite obvious that his status as 'shiny' has actually had a negative effect on his prison life, as it makes him an easy target. Despite this, he is an amazing fighter, which is most likely why he has managed to stick around for so long. He doesn't get along very well with Huey, and is often burnt because of it. Expect to find him out and on the move during the nighttime if you so choose to stay outside during the night.

Nice to see you're attempting this again. I'll be reviving Miles if you don't mind.

Name: Miles Traves
Age: 19
Species: Linoone
Appearance: Miles has taught himself to stand and walk on his hind legs. However, he needs to use all four of his legs to run. He wears a pair of gray pants, as well as a jacket and patrol cap of similar color. His coloration is normal for his species, dusty cream with brown stripes, and blue eyes.
Infraction class: B
General Personality: Miles has had issues with authority for years. He's been in and out of prison over the years, and has developed an aloof and "tough" personality, though it rarely intimidates other prisoners. He is egotistical and impatient, as well as very loud. On the flip side, he's quite paranoid, and immediately suspicious of anyone who attempts to get on his good side.

[Xires]

@Flynt:

Judging from your track record, how could I possibly refuse? You're accepted.

[Dark Way]

This is up again

Name: Mneme
Age: 21
Species: Umbreon
Appearance: She looks like normal Umbreon, but she wears black cloak with hood and a silver colored collar, also she has few scars. One that runs over her right eye and second curve shaped large scar on her left shoulder. She also misses little part of her right ear’s tip.
Infraction class: B
General Personality: Mneme is fiery lady with bad attitude. She is headstrong and doesn’t have much nerve. She is one with strong own will and mischievous mind. Her tongue is mean and she never take back her words, neither she will never regret anything she is said. But she also can be really sweet talker when she tries to get what she wants. But even Mneme has bad attitude and she doesn’t like others very much it’s possible to get along with her. But almost only then when you prove yourself useful to her, and don’t irritate her too much.
Mneme is also very self-assured and since her name Mneme means ‘memory’ she has good memory. So she will surely remember everyone has hurt her proud or she doesn’t like.
In battle Mneme knows no mercy and she always battle her battles to the end.

[Xires]

Accepted, Although her gruff personality may get her into trouble...

[Dark Way]

Well if she does it's her headache x3 Then she just have to learn the hard way how to behave.

[Xires]

@Darkway: If she survives the first few fights, that is...

@Everyone: I'm going to need at least FIVE people participating to start a regular thread. that means we need TWO more people before I can start it.

[Xires]

SIDE NOTE: Feel free to submit NPC Characters. This goes for everyone, even if you aren't a part of the actual RP. The Actual RP Thread will be up TOMORROW.
