Ok, first off, here's Team Sapphire.

Secondly, you know that your avatar is what you look like in Survivor, so once you're playing, you are not aloud to change your avatar. Not until you're voted off and so forth. If you're an NPC*, well, I doubt you'll be changing your avatar, but yeah. As for who's controling the NPCs...I guess that can be a group effort. I guess first one to fill out their profile get too.

Thirdly, this has to be your first post. Please fill out this form.

Fourthly, this is a role play thingy, so you guys/girls can role play yourselfs of how you're surviving on the island, conflicts, etc. Remember, not everyone has to like each other :-C Meaning, you can PVmail each other to get alliances and such o_O

Name: Simeon Avaengis

Age: 35

Occupation: Artist, writer, freight hauler, babysitter... (Hey, wait...)
What makes you survivor material: He's a lion-morph. The wild places of the world should be his element.

Personal item: A mysterious object... in a bag. (I'll change this later.)
} The thing in the bag is his teddy bear! ^^;; {
Anything we should know: To make this short, the guy can switch from being dead serious to being absolutely out of his rocker. Rumor has it that he may have Multiple Personality Disorder...

-------

Simeon was the first to hop off the boat and onto the rocky shore of the Team Sapphire encampent. He didn't need much really, and the weather was quite nice. Tying the odd canvas satchel he had brought along with him around his waist, Simeon waited for his fellow castaways to show their faces.

Shauni was first, and he cordially helped her off the boat with Ibun's help. Simeon couldn't help but note the grey cat-morph Ibun was a tad more than uncomforatble being stuck in the same team with Shauni.

MK was the next to hop off, and the 8-inch white puffball in a trenchcoat grinned at his Lionine Mod-friend all friendly like. Simeon just chuckled and set down his RP compatriot and watched him flit about with his grappling hook.

Pokemon Master hopped of the boat was well, carrying the meager supplies Opal had left the team. He looked a tad uncomfortable in the Ranger Armor he was wearing... and Simeon was getting curious about what was under that helmet.

"Hey! Simeon!"

The Lion-morph looked up and stepped out of the way as Josiah hopped out of the boat, too. Simeon knew his place and nodded to Josiah. The rest of the team was his to deal with.

The group gathered around and discussed a few details. Simeon was listening, but his attention was getting distracted here and there.

That could work as a shelter... that pool could have some food...

"Simeon?" Josiah called Simeon's attention. The Lion-Morph looked uncomfortable as he just realized that he was talking to himself.

"You didn't hear all that.. did you, Josiah-sama?"

"I did, but we'll have to consider them later."

"Yes, sir."

"First off, we need to discuss what the others can do here..."

It wasn't long until Simeon was distracted again, this time by a stray powderpuff from a sea-flower. Feline instinct took over and he started swatting at it. Ibun could only hang his head and tail in embarassment...

Name: Matrix Kirby, or MK for short
Age: 6 years
Occupation: Secret Agent
What makes you survivor material: The fact that he's a secret agent. He's be specially trained for situations like this. But, you know, that was 2-3 years ago...
Personal item: His personal Grappling hook. Unlike the Kirby we all know, Matrix Kirby can't fly, so to reach higher up places, such as climbing a tree or climbing a mountain, or getting in to a chair to have dinner, he uses his Grappling Hook.
Anything we should know: To convince him to go, the Secret Agency said that he would also meet Dr. Vallos, the evil scientist that Matrix Kirby was always busting up for trying to take over the world, even though just last week, MK had captured him and put him in the jail, so Vallos is still in the Jail, so MK only believes Vallos is there.
That, and, he's a Secret Agent. He's always cautios, and ready to strike when the time comes.

---------

MK pulled out his Grappling hook, spun it around, and scaled a tree. Sure, this was sort of a vacation, but his ever watchful eye was going to stay on the lookout for Vallos, his one true enemy. He stood on top of the tree for awhile, looking around, trying to find where Vallos might be hiding. After about 3 minutes, he's picked out a couple places, but just ignored it for now, but marking the locations in memory. He hopped down from the tree, doing some flips and spins, landing, then walking back to the other crowd.

Name: Shauni Aketchi
Age: 21
Occupation: I.T Programmer, Comic artiest
What makes you survivor material: I'm quick to adapt and have a good headed for design and construction. I can make detailed plans and create things with the most basic of materialise, meaning I can survive on what I have been provided by finding useful ways of using what I have. This means I will be helpful at tasks as well as making hunting equipment and shelter.
Personal item: Dull art set (including Artiest Sketch Book, pens, pencil etc)
Anything we should know: Shauni is generally easy going but sometimes she can lack focus as she goes of into a day dream. She isn't always aware of possible danger around her and sometime she can get irritable if she is frustrated.

Simeon was the first to hop off the boat and onto the rocky shore of the Team Sapphire encampment.

Shauni followed the...well, she still wasn't sure WHAT Simeon was, but she followed him on shore. He helped her off the boat with Ibun's help.
Shauni had a some what complex history with Ibun, and felt uncomfortable near him right now.

Shauni quickly rushed onto the shore, away from the sea. She hated boats almost as much as spiders. She looked around at the camp they had been mourned on. Though it was beautiful, it didn't exactly look practical. She noted the high rock faces and dense foliage, making a note they may have to clear some of it as building on the beach was a bad idea.

Pokemon Master hopped of the boa, carrying the meagre supplies Opal had left us.

"Hey! Simeon!" 

Shauni spun around, and smiled. At least she was with Josiah, someone she was very friendly with.

"Simeon?" 

"You didn't hear all that.. did you, Josiah-sama?"

"I did, but we'll have to consider them later."

"Yes, sir."

"First off, we need to discuss what the others can do here..."

Shauni butted in as MK went of by himself, sporting a grappling hook...
"Josiah, I think we should start on a shelter first while its still good weather and light. I don't fancy sleeping out in the open."
She posed as her stomach made itself known
"Then maybe lunch?"

Simeon was by one of the tide pools now, still swatting away at the sea-puff in childish amusement... when something caught his eye.

One swift motion of a lion-morph paw later, a wriggling fish was pulled from the rocky tide pool and thrown onto the beach. Simeon bent down to take a rock and began to pick out some of the larger barnacles clinging to the rocks, and then he cut off some choice bits of seaweed.

"What on earth are you doing, Simeon?" one of the castaways asked. Simeon wasn't paying attention to who was reprimanding him.

"I... I don't know..." was the bewildered response, "I just felt like doing it and I couldn't stop myself."

"Explains alot..." Ibun muttered, poking the still flopping fish with a stick.

"Think it's edible?" Pokemon Master asked, spearing the fish with another stick and picking it up.

"Wanna find out?" Simeon asked, picking up a few pieces of driftwood and set about building a fire the hard way. It wasn't long until he got a decent fire going and had the barnacles and seaweed boiling in one of the pots and the fish was being roasted carefully over the fire, skewered like a marshmallow on a stick.

The food smelled good, but most of the castaways were a little wary about the catch. Simeon didn't seem to be bothered and tasted the fish, then he tested the barnacle and seaweed soup.

The team waited. Well, he wasn't dead yet...

Post by **shauni** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 7:09 am

Before long Simeon had started a fire and was roasting what smelt like fish.

Shauni glanced at the creature and watched him get, her stomach again making itself known

"Eat now I guess..."
She walked over to the cat creature and sat down next to him. Simeon offered the brunette some of the fish and she took it thankfully. Others one by one joined as shauni began to eat the fish.
"Say, this is pretty good."
Shauni pulled out her sketch book and began doodling as she ate
"What are you doing?" Josiah asked
"making a map of the site. We need to start planning where we are going to build and such"
She glanced around
"We cant camp on the beach, its to rocky and the waves would wash away all our stuff...the cliff face is to steep...our only option is to clear some foliage at that section over there. The ground if reasonably hard without being to hard so we can secure a structure there. Its close to the beach for fishing without being to close to be swept away, and the forest canap? will provide some shade from the crippling heat. We also need to find fresh water. Some sort of stream or lagoon would be best"

"Well, if anyone needs their supplies that were so cleverl hidden on the beach, I suppose I'll be on my perch." said Stevenson, perching on some random tree nearby.

Simeon looked up at the talking parrot and rolled his eyes.

"Excuse me, Master Parrot.. but you're on the wrong beach!"

Post by **shauni** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 7:15 am

*LOL*

Shauni watches as the parrot returns to his own camp
"Check our stock...you never know...he may have been on reconnaissance"

Post by **Simeon** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 7:20 am

Simeon nodded sharply and checked the supplies... then he glared at the brightly colored bird.

The Lion-Morph spread his wings and flew up, to everyone's shock, and snatched the parrot in his coal-furred paws. A few squwaks and several clicking sounds later, Simeon flew back down to the Sapphire Tribe's beach with the team's supplies.

"Nice try, Master Parrot," Simeon called back to the fleeing parrot, "But I also happen to eat birds. You're lucky I didn't pluck your feathers and roasted you."

Post by **shauni** » Mon Dec 05, 2005 7:37 am

what little comfort had just been formed about simeon had just been re-enforced
"So...what now? Do we start building or do we look for fresh water first?" she asked Josiah, trying to bring things back to order.

I would of siad this eariler, but I was having computer troubles.

EDIT TIMES TWO: Stevenson, you and your team are banned from posting here! Same with this team posting on their side :3

Now I will post Ibun's bio. Then all you guys need is PM's and Josiah's post before you can continue!

((I'm here! Sorry it took so long, yesterday was really busy. I'll try to check at least this thread more often.))

Name: Josiah
Age: 20
Occupation: Pok?mon Trainer, Martial Artist, Writer
What makes you survivor material: I run the forums, I'm also a good leader and planner
Personal item: Swiss Army Knife
Anything we should know: I was allowed to bring my torchic, so making fires will never be a problem. I'm generally fun to be around but I can be a bit strict when I think something needs to be done and irritable when I think others aren't pulling their weight.

((Now we just need to wait for PM and then we can get back to the RPing.))

Post by **Simeon** » Fri Dec 09, 2005 10:23 pm

((Time's up for Pokemon Master... Josiah has my tail on this, so it's my move now.))

Simeon sipped some more of the soup he had made.

"Well... I say you guys can start the shelter... there's a nice alcove I was spying earlier that can easily be hollowed out and braced up with some of the larger bits of driftwood I saw get washed up on the sandier part of the beach. It's nicely fortified and out of the reach of the tide. If we can set it up properly, there'll be low risk of it getting burned down and unstable, and there'll be enough room for the team to rest comfortably."

There was a pause.

"Where is this alcove?" Shauni asked.

"It's in the general area where you pointed out that we should clear out shrubbery, Shauni-san." was the lion-morph's reply, "I noticed a cave in the cliff-face in that general area, and I'm very sure you'll be able to spot it."

Simeon got up and flew up the higher parts of the cliffside a little ways then started to scale the mossy rocks to the forest cresting the top.

"Why don't you just fly all the way up?" Matrix Kirby asked the winged Lion-morph, as he happened to be rappelling down the same part of the cliff.

"More fun this way." was a reply, "And it's easier to track water when you're not worried about your wings."

-------

Simeon found a small trickle of water cascading down the cliff-face near the alcove he had seen earlier. After smelling and tasting the water, he found it was clean and safe. So, putting his nose to the ground, Simeon traced the trickle to a small spring of water bubbling up from the rocks about a hundred meters away from the cliff's edge and deep in the thick woods that seemed to cover this island.

Then Simeon smelled something else. It was a warm scent... and not too far away, either. He followed the humid scent for about a couple meters... and tripped.

*SPLASH*

Simeon fell face-first into a hot-spring. Luckily for him, his satchel had fallen off his waist and landed on some dry shrubbery carpeting the area around the pool.

"Pfft! Ptoo... BLBLBLBLBLLLL!!" Simeon spat some of the water out of his mouth, pulled his soaked coal-black mane out of his face, climbed out of the hot-spring, then shook all the water out of his fur and feathers. This was a rather unpleasant experience, but at least his satchel was still dry and he had located water for his team. Taking a hollow old tree branch, Simeon filled his container with the cool water from the little, trickling spring and headed back to camp.

-------

By the time Simeon arrived at the cliff's edge, his fur and feathers had dried out enough for him to glide back down. Looking around at his busy teammates, Simeon sat on a nearby rock, close to the supplies and set down the branch filled with water.

Unable to sit down for very long, Simeon looked out over the frothing waters of the ocean.

"Maybe it's time for a little 'fly' fishing..."

Making a make-shift harpoon from a shaft of driftwood, Simeon flew off and over the water to practice spearing fish for dinner. And this is what he did until he was called over to shore by his teammates.

"Well, that was easy." *Josiah stepped back to survery the shelter they had made.*

"It's kinda small..." *Shauni didn't appear quite so enthused.*

"It's big enough for us to sleep in and that's all we really need."

"Hey Simeon, we're done!" *Matrix Kirby called.*

*The lion morph joined them a moment later, showing off the fish he had caught.* "These will be for tonight. We should save the food we were given for emergencies."

"I totally agree. Now, once Jeff and Pokemon Master get back here with some firewood we can start cooking."

"I hope they don't run into any trouble. They've been out for a while." *Shauni glanced off into the jungle.*

"Ah, don't worry. I doubt there's anything too dangerous on this island. Besides, I'm sure we can all handle ourselves in a fight."
