Thank you KujiUn. I really appreciate it. And you two take your time with the starter options. I can stat them fairly quickly.

Oh, yeah! Egg moves... egg moves...

I'll invoke the rule of justification. Can you justify it?

I think pusher fits better with the role. Also keeping the setting in mind Shinx may be better suited to dealing with the pokemon that are likely to appear. However if you have your heart set on playing healer I will not say you can't.

As for justifaction of the egg moves I'll allow it, but it is a slipperly slope to having another character justify having TMed their starter with fireblast or thunder. Nobody get any ideas :p

I'll invent an era equivalent mechanic to the TM when the use of TM's becomes relevant to the party. I'll most likely cop out and make them one shot consumable scrolls with fun side effects, but who knows I may be feeling extra creative at the time.

...it's almost like you want me to bring the Pathfinder books to your house.

Oh, yeah, that's right. I'm going to have to borrow your DS, since I seem to have already packed mine. I WANT CELEBI, DARN IT!

Nope, not until much later in history. Not sure of the exact date off the top of my head, but I'm pretty sure even in WWI they were having soldiers bite something and bear it.

However, that makes me think. Can Pokemon put a trainer to sleep in PTA? Presumably that would be an equivalent that could be used much earlier.

Actually, thinking about how the world could have ended up differently because of Pokemons' influence is potentially really interesting. Take electric Pokemon - would humans have figured out how to make use of electricity earlier if these had been around? What about obviously mechanical Pokemon like Magnemite - did they exist back then? If so, you'd presume robotics would have come around much faster. The possibilities are limitless!

Hm... that's right. It would quicken human's evolution.

Also, ooh... encounter notes. These look fun.

Hey I know that there are probably not going to be any officer slots left. What about non officer crew members, Could they be played?

AbashedPenny- The Quartermaster position has yet to be filled it seems.

And as for my character, I slept on it and with your suggestions I'll go the route of the Pusher. I designed both chars and the more I look at it the more I think I'd be more useful as a Pusher. Thank you for your generosity in allowing those starters but I'm afraid I just can't think of sufficient justification. Aside from the happenstance of a random meeting (in both character cases) nothing really seems feasible to me. For instance the Riolu at a breeding center. If it was an extremely rare and strong pokemon it would have been taken by the soldiers. So to that light, I would like to take the Shinx as my starter. How would you guys like the character sheet sent to you for review? And is my Pusher background sufficient or did you need more detail?
