August/September Test Drive!




The end of Summer is upon us in Alola, even though the warm days haven’t left our island shores as the tourist season is beginning to wind down, and the locals are preparing to settle into the more relaxed routines they’re more commonly used to. Behind the scenes, the Aether Foundation works tirelessly to uncover the method to send the Fallers back home, and yet there’s a sense of need and hurried anticipation as the new School Year is upon everyone.


A. Arrival

Another wave of Ultra Holes have opened up over the Island, alarms have appeared and the Ultra Guardians as well as Bewear has come into play. This time, the Fallers have been asked to intercept the literally Falling people who are coming out of the holes and brief them and bring them to the Pokemon Center, ie Immigration to get checked in. Wicke is there to answer questions but a few volunteers may be there as well. The experienced Fallers can get you up to speed.


B. The Alola Community Visitors Plaza

A venue usually for tourists, new Fallers are given a chance to see the main tourist area for Alola, in order to orient and familiarize themselves with the nature of Alola and Pokemon in general. A far cry from the disorganized mob that was originally there, this time, there are people set up in the stands, ready to receive tourists and Fallers alike. Pamphlets, interviews with locals and tour guides, Ride Pokemon to take you around the island, and various other places are available. Please look around, the choice is yours.


C. The Hau’oli City Markets

This is where the marketplace stands, full of fresh fruit and food. Those who are hungry can be treated to a delicious taste of Alola. Not once, not twice, but more times than they can imagine. Your coin is good here, even if it’s alien in nature. Even if you don’t have coin, you’ll be fine. Ohana. No one is left behind or forgotten. We’re not about to let people go hungry in this world. Nature’s bounty is for everyone, humans and Pokemon alike. There’s no need to steal, just ask the marketplace for some food if you are very hungry. Even if you’re shy, Miss Anela will offer you a snack.


D. Job Board

Odd Jobs have been posted here right now, thanks to the efforts of the people who have decided to help the Fallers out, and it’s also a help wanted board for those who want to earn some coin in the middle of the week before the beginning of the school year. Tasks such as bucking crates of Juice off a truck, to doing some simple paperwork in an office for a few days, and even tending Pokemon in a farm on Akala Island. The choice is yours. Get out and explore.


E. Exploring Melemele

If you wish to explore Melemele, it is a big island, and there is plenty to see. There are Forests, Honey Fields, Hot Springs, Beaches, and many other places. Melemele boasts one of the biggest cities Hau’oli City, and is the capital of Alola. Here, up at the top of a large plateau is the challenge area where Hala offers the Grand Trial. The caves are full of Pokemon, and your Pokemon are eager to prove themselves in a Trial.


F. Pokemon School

The Pokemon School has begun to open its doors, and the school is opened up officially. Early enrollment has begun, and you can prepare to start studying. Also, Professor Burnet may be looking for people to start assisting in the research for Pokemon.

Letter From the Producer Vol 2 - Moving Forward

[bestmomever]

Thank you everyone for applying to Fallers RPG. (Bows)

After a month, I can safely say that Fallers RPG is something that will last. Will it go for it's intended 3 years? Well, with your help, I can hopefully do what I plan to do which is tell a story for everyone.

Moving forward, we're going to start moving into our projected 6 to 8 month story arc, which begins the organization of the Fallers, with what I have dubbed "Over the Rainbow", our Team Rainbow Rocket Arc. Yes, there is no hiding it anymore, we're doing a Rainbow Rocket Arc for our first storyline. I feel, as a small run game, it would be foolish of me to hide the story arcs, and lay it out on the table.

Like a small run D&D game with a few players, it would be easier as a Cooperative Tabletop, to swing with your punches while creating things on the fly in response to your ideas, while planning sweeping arcs to be as flexible.

So your thoughts. As a Letter from the Producer, I'd like to hear your ideas for the Rainbow Rocket idea. I have two major antagonists planned, clearly I can't have all of them due to how some of them went out, but I will say, with the Ultra Holes as a major concept, and the plot points I none too subtly dropped hints in Discord, we will be meeting some very specific people.

So please, leave your ideas below, and we'll discuss it, as a round robin idea!

Until then, Please Look Forward To It.
