Lockdown - Pokémon/Fakemon RPG - Chapter 1: Waking Up

Lockdown

4 months...

That's how long it's been since you were kidnapped. Taken from your home, your town, your life... and put here, in this box.
This pristine, white box. No matter what you do, you can't escape. The scientists take you out every so often, run some tests, and then it's back in this white box. The collar around you prevents you from using any of your abilities, so trying is a moot point. The walls are solid, and there's nothing to pry the door open with. At this point, all that's left to do is wait...

One day, you wake up, your door opens, and yet, nobody is there. Suddenly, the lights flicker, the ground shakes, and you hear a voice through the PA system.

The facility is now on lockdown. Please proceed immediately to a Designated Safety Zone, and prepare for potential emergency evacuation.

You don't know why, you don't know how. But you do know one thing.

This is your chance to escape the white box.

Rules
0) Site rules apply.
Please follow the TBG guidelines.
1) No godmodding/powerplaying/Mary Sues/metagaming/etc.
The role of the GM will partially keep this balanced, but your character shouldn't be so powerful that they predict all the moves, dodge them perfectly, then destroy all the enemies in one blow.
2) Please ship sensibly.
Shipping is still very much allowed, just don't make the RP entirely about shipping.
3) You may have up to three characters.
This is so there aren't so many characters that the RP becomes completely insane and unmanageable.
4) You can apply as a Pokémon or Fakemon.
Humans are NPCs only, sorry.
5) Legendary or extremely strong Pokémon or Fakemon will be rejected.
You can apply again afterwards, however.

How does this RP work?
This RP is a GMed RP, meaning that a central manager (me, the GM) controls the NPCs, results of actions such as attacks, and the like. This helps prevent godmodding, as nobody can decide how strong their attacks or another player's are.

Dice rolls will be used in this RP, with a d20 system. 1 fails hilariously, 2 is the worst, 10 is average, 19 is the best, and 20 is an overshoot (meaning you end up performing the action too strongly.) Buffs or debuffs (adding or subtracting to your roll) will also be given based on your status (injured, for example).

~Starting now.

Oooow... what... happened... where... I... am?

What.... ring....?

-----

Talessa thought meanwhile: "Finally, no more tortures. Ugh, how much I was hurt anyway?" Talessa looked at her body... Yeah, she couldn't objectively see. She decided to get out of here.

-----

Meanwhile Nehiri, who was also Sandshrew, was broken... Alone, tired.... The alarm was only thing which made him happy at all.

The five stand in their respective cells, staring out at the room in front of them. They can clearly see one another, as well as some other, similar cells.

The lights briefly flicker as another shockwave hits the ground, causing some to stumble and lose their balance.

For some, this is a shot at escaping. For others, it's a group to lead. And for a few, it's a chance to get some answers. But no matter what their ambitions are, one thing is certain for everyone.

It's an opportunity.

Talessa decided to open her cell from inside... She saw a Snivy which apparently couldn't remember anything, an old Graveller, a heartbroken Sandshrew and somehow clothed Machoke. "Ah darnit, guess I'll need to open their cells too. Once I break though mine- wait, oh, they're open?" Talessa gotten out and decided to drag Snivy outside.

---

What... light... ow..., stood... up... Ugh.... can't... remember...

---

Nehiri got out on his own out the Cage, somewhat happy because he's free now.

Talessa: Break John Trebonth's Restraints: 1d20 = 12

Talessa snaps the ropes holding John down, and drags him out into the room.

The room outside doesn't look much better than the cell, but it's at least a step in the right direction.

I don't use this website anymore (although I may check in or post occasionally), and have not for a while now. Sincerest apologies if you were wishing to communicate with me.
The vast majority of the things I have posted on here are old, and I regret them extremely. My attitude (i.e. annoyingness level (i.e. very high)) in such posts are (hopefully) not indicative of my current attitude (i.e. probably considerably less annoying). I thank all of my friends from earlier times here for tolerating my ignorance and idiocy.
Thank you.
(Also, I don't normally talk (well, type) like this. I just think it's fun. Bye.)

That doesn't mean no ships, it just means "don't make absolutely everything about ships". You're still free to make ships as long as you balance it out with other actions.

and TBH I'll probably end up with a few ships of my own after this, lol

Ugh... shook... head...

Wait, where... am I... um... now? And... who I... am? Or what... is... that thing?

Talessa sighed. Probably she would need to increase group by 2 more people who are as conscious as her. Likely that Machoke... But what second thing could be?

Yes, the collar blocks that.

Troy also starts with his cell open, same as the others.

Talessa had a revelation - she could namely train that Snivy once it remembers it's name! But how? She decided to look up the collar... Well, that had John Trebonth written it? "Uh... Whoever are you, can you remember your name? Anything?"

---

I couldn't... understand... majority, but... wait... my name? Uh... C-can't... I don't... know. I shook... my head...

---

"Wait, you can't remember your name yet? Well, I need to say it clearly. You're John Trebonth, yes?"

---

...What? I... Trebonth? Wait... That was... my name! I can't... speak... yet, so I shook positivelly.

---

"There's almost no time to waste, though. We need to go!"

When Nehiri heard it, he went near group, but not so close.

Troy heard all the alarms going off. Something told him not to panic.
That's when he noticed the door to his box was open.
