Pokemon Umbral Discussion 22: The PCs Have the GM On Lockdown

[Geminex]

No, you don't get Magatama-induced artificial aging. Drop it.

Actually, yes he does. Terms of our deal. And besides, it'll be my sidequest. I'll work it in credibly. As long as AB doesn't protest, where's the problem?
AB, would you be fine with Renny aging, say, two years, by way of Matagma?

Beats the hell out of me.

You're the only one capable of working something in.
Pierce is going to become loyal anyway. Now, we can roleplay badly, and just let that happen without much of a catalyst, or we can roleplay well and actually find a good way to explain it, give Pierce some motivation. If you tell me about your sidequest, I can find a way to work something in, but I'm not sure how willing you are to divulge details prematurely, or how willing you'd be to let me insert certain other details. So I ask you. Can you find a way?

As for Liz...
How soon are we getting more info on her?

Since when is your sidequest the one where we get to go half-demon?

Wait, let me rephrase: is your sidequest still the one where we get to go half-demon, considering all the changes going on?

Technically I never said loyal. He's going to give Impact his support. Yes, I have some ideas to warm Pierce up to Impact, but it's not really in my best interests to help you with that.

The way I'm thinking about doing it is to have Pierce realize he's not fit for leadership and let Impact do it because he's the lesser of four evils (when it comes to leading the team, at least). I mean, I obviously won't say it like that, but you understand I'm just screwin' with you.

That comment about her being rich got your interest, eh? You won't get her profile until her first appearance. Which is Pierce's sidequest. For basically two reasons: a) I'm a jerk, and b) I've been trying to come up with a good last time for her since forever. I mean, it's not as easy as coming up with, say, "Granger", because rich girl needs rich-sounding name.

I can tell you two things, though: she's a Snagger.

Also, when I say she loves her pokemon I mean she really loves her pokemon, and you wish I was joking.
