ENABLE ME TIMBERS: DECEMBER 2024

YO HO HO EVERYONE! This is an ATP/EMP post where players can make cast requests for people to app into, or make ads for characters they are considering bringing into the game. It works like any other ATP/EMP, but we do have a few things to note down:

» Invitations are required to reserve and apply! But you can go ahead and post to the ATP/EMP post with a note you need an invite. You can either rely on a current player for help, or you can directly request an invite from the mods.

» We have a 65 player cap.

» Players can only app 2 characters at once with a max limit of 3 in game. But since this is an ATP/EMP, feel free to put more if you're having trouble deciding!

» Our Game Info should cover everything you need, from basic premise summary to the nitty gritty details of the game mechanics. If you have any questions, post them there.

» Just want to make it clear that this is not a claims page. While we give priority to whoever is on the Reserve list, we do allow app challenges, and there is no rule against multiple players TDMing the same character. Of course we don't want there to be too much conflict, so everyone please be polite no matter who it is.

» TDM is Saturday, December 14. This TDM will double as our Winterstide event, but we will include a traditional "starter prompt" for TDM specific characters. Everything will be carried over as canon!

» Reservations open Wednesday, December 25th.

» Applications open Wednesday, January 1st.

» Use the following codes to write up your character or cast ad!

Jack Frost

Rise of the Guardians

Player: Addy | buttercupss
Invited by: Caprica
Preferred Armada: Corsair

Hello! Recently came back to RP full of nostalgia for Jack, so here the boy is, ready to throw snowballs at people's faces! He's a prankster with a heart of gold who adores adventure, taking care of children, and trolling adults. Everyone will be able to see him thanks to the amazing Power of Jamjars (TM), so he's starving for touch and friendship. All this obviously makes him a Corsair, so bring in the chaos!

Also I just find it amusing that he'll simply walk on the water. :')

the movie is 12yo do you feel old yet

[catsgothistongue]

Aaaaa don't remind me of the horrors of time ;;_;;

One of the first things this little chaos gremlin did getting to this world was chuck snowballs at people's faces, so he'd already be on board with his fellow chaos troll. You know what they say, the more chaos, the merrier!

APP THIS PLEASE

POKEMON

Do you like Pokémon? Do you play anyone from Scarlet/Violet, or any of the others that came before? Boy, would weAND ME!! ESPECIALLY ME!! COME PLAY POKEMON AT SEA WITH ME!! love to see any of your poképeople here! There's so much to explore and discover in a world covered by ocean and islands; it's honestly a wonderful environment to get so much adventure packed into, along with plenty of room for character arcs and forming strong bonds.

I play Professor Turo(AI) of Violet and I'm having an absolute ball with the guy here in Escordvi- and as said already, I would love other characters from Violet or Scarlet, and would also love to have anyone from any other installments of the wonderful world filled with Pokémon. This game setting just feels like Pokémon characters would thrive.

Be more than happy to welcome you here, and see what sort of shenanigans can be gotten up to!

APP THIS PLEASE

FATE/GRAND ORDER

EVERYONE RAYSHIFT IN HERE! We got pirates, treasure! Saint Quartz!!!! Okay, maybe not Saint Quartz, but we got all of the other things and more!

In all seriousness, yes, please. Bring all of everyone in! Obviously Shuten and Raikou would be very much loved. Obviously, it's just Kintoki right now; so honestly anyone would be absolutely loved on.

ARANEA HIGHWIND

FINAL FANTASY XV

Player: Laena | laenavesse
Invited by: Me
Preferred Armada: Undecided

WHEEZE I'M STILL CONSIDERING ROKUROU BUT I got hit by nostalgia and we need more girls—

Anyway, it has been a lot longer since I played Aranea compared to Rokurou so I would definitely need more voice testing, but she would be great in this setting. She'd complain about lack of airship but that's okay, she'll just "find" her own ship and still be able to launch herself high with her spear and heels, and maybe I can get her a dragon or something in its place— But yeah, mercenary with military command experience, she'd definitely make her own crew and basically give the finger to either armada she's put in LMFAO. GOES WHERE THE MONEY IS while also helping those in unfortunate situations if she comes across it.

She could fit in either armada which makes this haaard. She'd basically live the life of a pirate, but that's why it would be amusing if she was a Paladin doing it. She'd also be more pissed at being a Paladin lmfao. Her trust in higher governments is at an all time low. SO I'M TORN. If I go through with this. THE GENERAL IDEAS ARE THERE but am I able to is the ultimate question...

I would also take her pre-timeskip if only because the only material out there for her during the timeskip is the novel and that goes into AU territory and I'd rather not complicate things hhahhhfa. STILL WISH WE HAD THAT DLC MAN...

Anyway, that's all I got. SASSY QUEEEEEN

Lady

Devil May Cry

Player: Taco | plushietaco
Invited by: In Need of Invite
Preferred Armada: Undecided

Demon hunter and one of the most badass women alive (at least according to Dante). She's not the most friendly of people, but once she gets used to this place, she'll open up a bit. She doesn't beat around the bush with her words and won't hesitate to grab a weapon and jump into a fight even if she knows she won't win.

Maki Zen'in

JuJutsu Kaisen

Player: Taco | plushietaco
Invited by: In need of Invite
Preferred Armada: Undecided

Master martial artist and weapon user with a literal body of steel. Maki is skilled at both armed and unarmed combat. She can use pretty much any weapon that she picks up and has the pure physical strength to fight just about anyone. She's able to lift incredibly heavy objects like it's nothing and throw them like nothing. She's also rather hard to hurt.

Please help me pick!

[angellust]

gonna have to go with Maki, since i've been on a JJK kick lately. i considered apping younger Geto here but i believe she would make a fun pirate. at the very least, she could show off and relax a little.

also the words "Demon Hunter" make Angel side-eye. sorry, Lady. i'm sure you're a perfectly nice character!

i do think more badass women would be amazing, though. and you have two of them...

Agatha Harkness

Agatha All Along / MCU

Player: Sarah | dmails
Invited by: Will need one
Preferred Armada: Undecided

A sassy old witch that drains power from people that fall for her cons and then got trapped in a spell that made her think she was in a t.v show for a few years. Thanks Avengers for letting one of your own do that. Also she has a catchy theme song

I'm sorta dipping my toes back into playing in a non network driven game, and still voice testing Agatha a bit but I think this would be interesting to have her in.

[netherese]

Literally just finished the show last night and I would absolutely love to play against an Agatha, Gale is always interested in talking magic with anyone but he would be so fascinated with her world's approach to witchcraft and what it matches up with in Faerun. I also just love her, personally, and want to see her be mean to people (including Gale).

[fullgauntlet]

Hi! Mich here I am considering changing up my roster a little bit. I want to keep Izuku Midoriya fullgauntlet but I am also considering dropping him for one of the three below… ?? I am on the fence and I’m not sure what I’ll do but I could either keep Izuku and canon reset him to “new” and keep his crew OR… swap him out for one of these. Help me decide?? WHEEZE.

SORA

KINGDOM HEARTS

Player: Mich | michrure
Invited by: I help drive this ship
Preferred Armada: Paladin

Sora oathkeeper is the sweet sunshiney main protagonist of the Kingdom Heart series! He would be taken from the end of Kingdom Hearts 3 with no CRAU (about 15-16 years old). He’s bright, optimistic, sassy, fiercely protective of his friends and entirely too reckless with himself and his own wellbeing! I think he would make a fantastic Paladin (but he does love being a pirate so it would also be funny if he went full corsair too) and would more than likely want to make his own crew and be a captain.

Sora is a long time muse of mine, which I had retired for a little while just to give him a break. But seeing as there are a bunch of others in the Kingdom Hearts cast now, I’ve been breathing on the glass…

SQUALL LEONHART

FINAL FANTASY VIII

Preferred Armada: Paladin

Squall Leonhart shear_trigger is the broody main protagonist from Final Fantasy VIII. While he can appear cold and aloof, he actually is very caring and cares a lot about what people think of him. He has a lot of complex, deep emotions under the surface and often struggles with connecting with people… He would be a perfect Paladin as he also has natural leadership skills and works well when he’s under stress. He likes to work, is protective of the people he cares for, and likes to have a small group of close friends. He would come from post-game (18 years old.).

Squall is another muse that I have played before but have never been able to play him for a very long time in a game. He is so naturally introverted so I would worry about getting decent CR with him to stick but I’d like to try!

SQUALL”LEON” LEONHART

KINGDOM HEARTS

Preferred Armada: Paladin

On the flip side, I could also play a slightly older and mature Squall from the Kingdom Hearts series. He prefers to go by the name Leon gunbreaker and comes from a place called Hollow Bastion. He would come post-KH3: Remind DLC (approx 24 years old). While Leon still has a lot of the same traits as Squall Leonhart from FFVIII, Leon is an older, more mature version of that person. He comes more level-headed, accepting of his own emotions and needs, and cares more openly for the people around him. And he smiles more (sometimes).

He is another muse I’ve been wanting to try playing in a game for a long time and I think would mesh well with the casts in this game since he is older. It would be a nice mash-up of playing in the Kingdom Hearts cast and also playing something new I’ve wanted to try.

SOLIDER: 76

Overwatch

Player: Leo | Leicon
Invited by: I live here
Preferred Armada: Corsair

Do I trade one old man for another? Mayhaps.76 is definitely an old, tired, jaded, and gruff sort of military man that has a soft warm center once the hard exterior cracks; even if only around certain people. Military trained, likes chess, reading, and survival- but also knows how to cook and a hell of a lot smarter than some of his actions lead to believe.

Y'all want a different old super enhanced soldier? This one less likely to fall apart and very old war dog coded.

[detectiveforhierophant]

You know my thoughts on this already. Gimme either old man plz.

GENSHIN IMPACT

Preferred Armada: Paladin maybe!

Pay you no mind to the strange array of things that this distinguished gentleman knows, he's definitely not thousands of years old and certainly hasn't been around the block a few dozen times! He's just well-versed in the ways of the world, that's all! Nevermind that he's weirdly around every time something is going on, or, even, Going On, despite having said that he was going to retire...

God of Contracts, History, Wealth, and Commerce; the Lord of Geo; Prime of Adepti; Warrior God; and Groundbreaker himself... the guy who can't manage his money now that he can't make it anymore! Do you want another yapper added to the group? Do you want to reminiscence over the taste of osmanthus wine? Want a font of debatably useful knowledge? Boy do I have the peepaw for you!

No, look—I'm fine. I'm fine. I'm fine. I just fell headfirst into a new love and that's Dandadan! And also Miss Ayase here.

Tentatively looking at maybe bringing this girl around on the next TDM. Momo is the granddaughter of a spirit medium and something of a powerful psychic herself. She got abducted by aliens, unlocked her spiritual power, and now she is stuck fighting off both aliens and yokai as she searches for . . . . well, don't worry about what she's looking for. Geez! Don't be so nosy!

Momo would make for a good although rather chaotic PALADIN.

She's cheerful, fashionable, smart, and has a roundhouse kick that'll make your teeth chatter.

[catsgothistongue]

hey friendo welcome to the 'got their animes leaked months ago' club

I'm completely canonblind to it but I know my friends are obsessed with it, and from this description, I for one welcome this chaos psychic. Feel free to roundhouse kick his teeth in, 'cuz there's an 85% chance of that happening lmao.

Ruka Kayamori

Heaven Burns Red

Player: Alex | mr_cynicalperson
Invited by: I'm already in the house
Preferred Armada: Corsair

I'm still voicetesting her, but-! Here, have this brainlet known as Ruka, the ultimate rock star around! I'm using the Global release for her, so she's still kind of on the new side. Anyway, basic gist is that she's part of an elite group charged with stopping an alien threat from destroying humanity using weapons called "Seraph". Ruka uses two katanas (which she thinks are kind of lame and has thought of using them as backscratchers), and is the defacto leader of her squad. Why she was chosen for that position is unknown to literally everyone.

She's kind of a dingbat, you see. And might be able to break the fourthwall? Maybe, she is truly a mysterious character, Ruka. she's really not and might occasionally make fun of the edgy types unintentionally. In short, she's caught in a save the world situation with a slice-of-life yuri genre (Ruka doesn't really get it, but isn't going to complain), has a habit of driving her teammates insane, REALLY likes heavy metal, wants to listen to METAL until she dies, and just goes along with flow of the vibes.

Sometimes.

She's here to do whatever pops into her head. And we love her for that.

Dr. Henry Walton "Indiana" Jones, Jr.

Indiana Jones

Preferred Armada: Undecided

In honor of the newest Indiana Jones game that's coming out (the hype is so dang real right now you don't even know) I give you the famous archaeologist himself- Dr. Jones! Not sure if I need to say anything else about him, other than he's here to loot... I mean save, all the artifacts on the high seas, punch some pirates, stop nefarious evil do-ers in their tracks, and so on!

Please give him plenty of headaches.

Ghost Rider (Johnny Blaze)

Marvel

Preferred Armada: Paladin

The one and only, the flaming skeleton on a motorbike, the Ghost Rider himself! I'm using the Johnny Blaze iteration of the titular character, and he has a bone to pick with all you sinners and is more than ready to visit VENGEANCE on all villains everywhere! Currently reading up on the latest GR comics at the moment. But I've been itching to do something with big, bad, and firey!

Monkey D. Luffy

One Piece Live Action

Player: Xae | Tsukeru
Invited by: I'm a rat in the walls
Preferred Armada: Corsair

So I watched the LA version of OP too many times and came home with a Luffy muse. He is a young man who aspires to be King of the Pirates, with his own crew. He ate a Devil Fruit that gave him special abilities, specifically the Gum Gum Devil Fruit that allows him to stretch his body to extreme lengths - like rubber. In exchange, the sea water became his weakness.

Luffy gumgumcaptain is a kind-hearted pirate, who is willing to help people in need and punish those who do wrong. He doesn't let anything stand in the way of his dream, and encourages others to find theirs as well.

Of course, he'd be a Corsair here and would want to get his own ship and crew to be captain over. I'd take him from the end of Season 1... and have almost no knowledge of the manga/anime...

Yuffie Kisaragi

Final Fantasy VII (Remake/Rebirth edition)

Preferred Armada: Corsair

Oooor I could always bring back this bundle of ninja energy and make her a Corsair since... you know, she did try to assassinate Rufus. I've been tempted before.

She would be coming in with a Rebirth canon point this time, to be decided on when exactly, with her memories of the last time she was around. Here to harass her canon mates, and to summon old man Ramuh, because I love being a menace to Lae. (Maybe she'll try to build a stash with summon materia rewards now that we've got more fun ones.)

But for those that don't know her: Yuffie materiahunting is an energetic teen ninja who has grandiose plans to take down Shinra after what they did to her home of Wutai. She loves materia and treasure - playing a small role in Zack's story before becoming more of a main character in the game. Yuffie is dramatic and a bit on the cocky side, yet also is somewhat aware of her limitations - but can also be a bit reckless at times like the teenager she is.


Kagome Higurashi from Inuyasha is a tentative third option as a Paladin, but I have no journal or icons for her at this time.

[halfdog]

I SEE THAT STRIKE CMON LETS GOOOOOO

but no for real tho all these options are great and I’d love to have any of them!!

Because why do we not actually have one piece here it makes sense and your yuffie is great… but n-not like I’d like your kagome here or anything!!

Kieran

Pokemon Scarlet and Violet DLC: The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero

Player: CS | pocketnoivern
Invited by: Do not cite the deep magics to me, I was there when it was written
Preferred Armada: Undecided

So I've had this little ball of inferiority complex bouncing in my head ever since I finished the Pokemon DLC, and I figured I might throw him onto the TDM this time around to see how he fares! Kieran is from the Pokemon ScarVi DLC, and is a friend-turned-rival-turned-Champion for both pieces of DLC. The canon point I'm considering is going to be post-Epilogue, after the whole Mochi Madness shenanigans. So he'll have gone through a couple adventures with the player by this point, but now it's time for an adventure of his own!

While Kieran's had a some time to get over his Ogerpon obsession, there's still some evidence that he's got a few personal issues he's working through, and I think it could be fun to play through those and see how he develops. I'm still very rusty with him, and I'm still considering a few things, but I figured throwing him into Esco could be fun for him to learn and grow and have his own moment now.

Shadow the Hedgehog

Sonic the Hedgehog (Gameverse)

Player: Taisa | noletters
Invited by: I still don't know if/when I'll app so-
Preferred Armada: Corsair

Created to be the ultimate lifeform, seen as either a weapon of war, or the key to all matter of medicine, depending on who you talk to. Had a traumatic past where he watched his closest friend get shot and die in front of him. Hd nearly destroyed the world out of misplaced revenge and is now, in his own way, Earth's protector. He is not afraid to get down and dirty if needed though, pretty much will do what a hero won't. It's kind of why I'm leaning towards Corsair for him, but I can see a valid argument to be in Paladin. Two other fun things, he has a pirate outfit, and if I decide to pull him in the middle of Shadow gens or just...have him relearn that ability in a different way, he has a squid form. So he's already prep for sea travel :> Though unlike Sonic, he can swim if needed.

It's the year 2024 and I didn't see picking up a hedgehog being on my bingo card, but here we are. Literally the only thing holding me off from apping is work so I've relatively kept to meme and TDM bouncing around for now. That could potentially change in the coming months if work finally gets me the help I need, much cope. Regardless, I'll still be hitting the TDM as I was a bit late with the last one. Happy Year of Shadow.

Kuroki Tenma is an uncle who was placed in a coma after getting hit by a truck! He made it back to Earth though and is living with his nephew, streaming retro Sega (legally he can use their brand so it's fine, Love Penguin is aware of this canonically) games and using his magic to attract views on Youtube. He's often mistaken for an orc or some sort of creepy old dude. And it's fine if you do as well cause that's normal and expected.

Also, he's obsessed with Sega, especially Sonic. His whole outlook is based around Sega. His life is Sega.

Everything is Sega.

Yo ho, Yo ho, a pirate's life for me?

Looking for Kingdom Hearts pals to join a small but mighty cast in the Not!Caribbean! All the benefits of being a pirate, none of the clunky sailing mechanics or annoying races against Luxord (unless you like that sort of thing).

The cast has expanded to include Roxas, Axel, Ventus, Vanitas and Young Xehanort and we are happy to accept more members to the crew! The wilder the better, if I'm being honest! Bring out your rares! But also, anyone else would be more than welcome! I'd love to see Xion or the Twilight Town Crew, personally.

drayton

POKEMON SCARLET AND VIOLET DLC

Player: aaya | yagyuu
Invited by: i am already here.
Preferred Armada: corsair



in all seriousness. drayton is annoying. he is one of blueberry academy's elite four, a dragon-type pokemon trainer. frustratingly perceptive, he will use every bit of knowledge he's picked up to be as irritating as possible.

or, rather, he would, if he wasn't nerfed by being the laziest boy in existence. despite clearly being capable and intelligent, he's been held back three times (he thinks. even he isn't sure); in his own words, "not made for classroom learning". an extrovert too unmotivated to actually be bothered with the "extro-" part. despite that, he's not a bad person. he will tease relentlessly and stick his nose into other people's business, but it's pretty much always for a greater net positive purpose.

shindou chrono

CARDFIGHT!! VANGUARD G

Preferred Armada: corsair

clockpunk ; exhausted post-canon card game anime protagonist. has survived two apocalypse attempts and three direct attempts on his life and just kind of shrugs it off these days?? even though he's the "singularity" whose actions as a four-year-old unknowingly stitched the fates of two planets together, chrono is genuinely a pretty average highschooler who probably just needs a significant amount of therapy. not that he would ever admit that. he's Fine.

a little reckless and sort of book-dumb, chrono makes up for that with sharp emotional intelligence and an intolerance for bullshit. in true card game anime fashion, he does have some powers - he just keeps forgetting about them because they actually suck, and chrono is insistent that he's just a normal cardfighter. an ambivert who is good at making friends despite his slightly abrasive manner, he is one of my strongest characters to play and i really really love him. redhead idiot squad candidate.

nikkari aoe

TOUKEN RANBU

Preferred Armada: undecided

wails ; hey this one isn't a punk teenager. nikkari is a tsukumogami - his true form is actually the sword that he carries, with the body you see just a manifestation of that blade's spirit. having been summoned to join an squadron of fellow swords in order to defend the timestream from invaders who wish to alter history, nikkari is a capable fighter with some interesting powers at his disposal.

nikkari has a slight complex about his history as a blade, where he was once used to slay the spirits of a woman and child. this renders him unable to qualify as a holy weapon, though he still works extra hard to make up for this perceived sin. while mostly pleasant, kind, and helpful, he is also an egregious flirt who speaks often in innuendo. and if that doesn't unsettle you he's also got that same slain ghost woman living in one of his eyes (she is actually pretty chill). i could see him falling in with either armada. genuinely a really good friend to make, if you don't mind the occasional suggestive comments.

Grusha is a tough gym leader from Paldea. he primarily uses ice-type pokemon, and his Gym sits atop the snowy Glaseado Mountain. while he can be seen as a cold-hearted perfectionist at first, it's evident that he has a caring heart. when he introduces himself, he firstly says he is a snowboarder, which he was, for some time. he only left professional snowboarding due to an injury. while he does have some complicated feelings about battling, he never does anything half-heartedly.

Preferred Armada: Probably Corsair??? For something different to Hiro???

Chopper is the most adorable little doctor reindeer who had one of the Devil Fruit so he can talk, walk etc. And also change forms from his usual cute soft toy look if he needs to to help fight to defend his friends.

He's also the worst at playing hide and seek. And the most gullible ever in believing all Usopp's stories. So there is that.

I am The Most Behind and got up to like. Farewell Merry/after rescuing Robin so. I have not even gotten to Brook/the timeskip. But. I always thought Esco would be great for OP characters. And I do Adore Chopper. A lot. I can't say for sure if I will app, but I am debating on it. Maybe.

BARRY THE QUOKKA

The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog

Player: Wahoo | wahoothis
Invited by: Nibbling on the bowl of sunflower seeds that'd been here for a year
Preferred Armada: Maybe Paladins.

Blame the recent Sonics popping up here for reigniting this spark.
Recently lost a lot of my accounts and had to remade them thanks to my crummy laptop deciding to self-destruct on all data and erase it, but *Agent Stone voice* THEY'RE BAAAAAAAAACK!

Barry here's from the official VN "The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog" released *checks notes*... a full year ago for April Fool's. And it's actually really good and fun!!! They're the Naegi of the game in that they're the basic average schmoe who gets roped into the Sonic cast's crazy antics during a murder mystery birthday party gone wrong where Sonic is totally for real killed off for the rest of the series, and become Tails' assistant in solving the "murder". They're best skills include microwaves, sifting through trash cans, beatboxxing... and being an all-time dork.

GINE

Dragon Ball

Preferred Armada: Undecided as of now

This is Gine, mother of Goku!
"Wahoo this is the third time this EMT you've shown off the momkey to the class."
And to that I say to you imaginary strawman... Shush. This game has been upgraded to three Saiyans, so why not make it four? Plus, I absolutely need to have her meet her grandkids! Gine's not like most pureblooded Saiyans (except for Tarble). She's not a fighter. Her nature and heart made her a liability on the field and put herself in danger that a certain scarred Saiyan had to save her tail on multiple occasions. They feel in love (well, the closest equivalent to love for Saiyans at the time), had two kids, Gine retired to work at the meat distribution center, and then she and Bardock died.

Oof. Yeeeeeah, compared to the other members of her family, Gine's life is what we know the least amount. But that's never stopped me before in the past with other characters, so who knows, could be a fun challenge. :P

So how do you know about Chaos Control?

But omg suddenly all the Sonics. Seeing someone playing protag from Murder is also A+.

Sonic the Hedgehog

Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW)

Player: Name | mummifiedsalarian
Invited by: Some dork named Ant, you've probably heard of him
Preferred Armada: Undecided

Well hello there. I'm a bud that Ant might have, considering bringing in a certain pain in the ass blue rodent. This completely and totally was not at all inspired by my good buddy Anthony Ant Antington III messaging me in the middle of the night when I was trying to sleep before work this morning bein' all "HEY COME LOOK AT MY GAME I'M GONNA DO EGGS MAYBE". That's exactly how he worded it and he can't prove otherwise.

Anyway. It's Sonic. He's a big damn hero who wants to protect everybody, beat up robots, and be everybody's friend. He's a hedgehog, he's blue, he goes fast, something something chili dogs, and he can't swim. Absolutely NOTHING could possibly go wrong AT ALL.

[thetrashquokka]

But can he really move?

EMP (very tentative and late with starbucks as the kids say)

JAMES

Pokemon: The Animation (Sun & Moon)

Player: Psi | PsiYamaneko
Invited by: nnnnooobody. Would need an invite
Preferred Armada: Corsair

James is a dude from a little indie franchise about capturing monsters. You've probably never heard of it.

Seriously, though, for people who either haven't seen the show or only have a peripheral awareness of it, James is a thief and a genius-level hacker and engineer who works for a global crime syndicate called Team Rocket. His career as a field agent has him traveling the world failing to steal people's Pokemon, terrorizing the general public, stealing food, causing property damage, righting wrongs, and saving people he doesn't like for reasons he doesn't fully understand. He's a full-blooded chaotic neutral, basically. He's also not nearly as evil as he likes to think he is.

Despite his intellect and capacity for activities ranging from speaking dead languages to building metal gears, the man is guided more by his heart than his head. His mercurial emotions can get the better of him very easily. While he's usually submissive to more assertive personalities if he gets angry he can, and will, fly off the rails and rampage until physically restrained. He's a ridiculous guy, is what I'm saying.

[fullgauntlet]

Hello there!! As I see there are lots of pokemons popping up I have to say DO IT!!! James is such a fun choice oh my god?
