WELCOME TO FALLERS RPG PATCH 1.1: OVER THE RAINBOW!Welcome one and all and Alola! to the Alola Region! The peaceful islands of Alola is once again, brought forth it’s beautiful Manalo Festival. But on this day, strange things are happening!
On this day, Ultra Holes are opening up, all over the Islands, and people known as Fallers are arriving on the island from other worlds. What sort of strangeness has this prompted such amazing things?
To this end, President Lusamine has re-mobilized her
Ultra Guardians in response, and has created a response team from them to help these Fallers recover from the shock of arrival!
But that’s not all. It seems the Tapus have taken note of these Fallers and their uniqueness, and have nudged Pokemon and Eggs towards them, to be recovered by them. What new and exciting things will they see?
Perhaps we will see, as the Fallers are allowed to roam Melemele, for now, as guided tours of the other three Islands and Aether Paradise and Manalo Stadium will be given in short order. For now, homes will be provided for those who have been displaced from their homes until a suitable solution for their situation has been found.
IC: The Four Kahuna and President Lusamine's AddressAt the top of the hour, when all the Fallers have gathered at the Manalo Festival Center, Hala, the Kahuna of Melemele, stands at the platform. His voice rings out clear and true across the people.
"People of Alola! On the day of the Radiant One's revival, once again the Ultra Holes have opened up over Alola. This time, people of many nations have arrived in our lands. We, the Kahunas; Olivia, Nanu, Hapu and I, as well as President Lusamine of Aether Foundation, has decided to allow these people to seek shelter and refuge in our lands."
"This is but a temporary solution," said Olivia, taking her turn. "We hope the people of Alola will take these people in with open arms, in their times of need and help them recover."
"Many of them, after interviewing some, come from broken and tired worlds," said Nanu. "Struggles from near and far, have become known to us. It is our hope that our worlds will become closer as a result."
"As such, we have reformed a powerful force indeed to deal with the crisis at hand," said Hapu, as the stage buckled and moved, revealing a team of children dressed in Ride Uniforms, led by Ash Ketchum. "You may know them as the participants in the first Alola Conference!"
"The Ultra Guardians have served to protect Alola from the Ultra Beasts in secret," said Lusamine. "It is our hope with the cooperation of Madam Bewear and her Family," and they indicated the massive Bewear and Stufful who stood at the back of the crowd with Jessie, James and the rest of Team Rocket in their Civilian Outfits, "that we will be able to intercept Fallers and recover them and bring them to a safe location at all points in time in the day and help them acclimate to the world."
"Please, everyone give us your support!" Exclaimed Hala.
As one, the people of Alola roared as the assigned family members, started greeting their newfound adoptees with bright "Alolas!" and "Cousins!"
IC: Gamewide MingleAs Fallers, you may explore the island, learn about the place, and interact with the various NPCs on request. There are several to meet and different locations to explore!
Pokemon School: A place of learning, the school has opened its doors temporarily for shelter while deciding what to do with the mass influx of people from other worlds. Those who stay will be located to homes. Enrollment into the classes will be optional, and will start in the end of Summer.
Aina Cafeteria: A wonderful restaurant run by Mallow and her father, they run a tight ship of food, and wholesome meals for those to enjoy. You can even work here if you want.
Beaches: Sun, surf, fun, many places here for relaxing and fishing and other such fun. You can go swimming, surfing and using Ride Pokemon to travel and Jetski on.
Tapu Koko’s Forest: A place full of life and Pokemon, learning about this place as it covers most of the area is a wonderful idea as the forest covers a good portion of the island.
Honey Fields: The local bird Pokemon Oricorio frequent this place, and there’s plenty to see here. A relaxing place, with honey and flowers everywhere.
Hau’oli City The main city of Melemele, this is where all the action is! Food, venues, shops, Pokemon, the Market, everything is here. Even your new homes.
IC: PROMPTS!You can make up your prompts from here! But a selection of ideas are below from the TDM.
1. ArrivalYou’ve just arrived! While not an ideal prompt for your test sample, it makes for a good testing for your first reaction here! Having fallen, gotten off the boat or plane from another region, your passport is stamped and processed. If you’re a Native, there’s plenty to see, and can go about your day. But if you’re a Faller, there’s a tour guide waiting for you. Just hold on tight!
2. The Sandy BeachesPerhaps you’ve had the time to acclimate yourself to the area, and just want to relax now. It’s time to relax in the sunny beach, throw yourself onto the sand and surf, and just chill. You’ve had a long,tough time, and now just want to sleep. Or maybe you’re too excited! This is another world, or another region! Perhaps you’ve been planning this trip to Alola for ages, and now its time to play! The choice is yours!
3. ShoppingWhat’s a trip to Alola without shopping. There’s food, accessories, more food, clothing, and tourism. Ride some Pokemon, find some things to do. Eat some malasada and shop at Aina’s Kitchen and Team Rocket’s Honey Donuts. If you want to escape the heat, there’s always the mall.
4. Pokemon!Of course! Pokemon are everywhere. And maybe your Fated Encounter is upon you now. The Tapus are urging a Pokemon to come to you, be it in an Egg format to make its way into your hands, or perhaps a bird or a bug or whatever. Somewhere, a partner is waiting for you, you just have to meet them. And then, perhaps, you will be able to make friends! Just remember in this world? You don’t catch Pokemon -- Pokemon catch you.
5. TravelThere’s plenty to see on Melemele even in one day. There’s a lot of places to travel even by foot, and a lot of room, even in this place. There’s forests, hills, the town, the smaller suburbs, and beaches, an island off the coast, and the honey field even within walking range. Take time to explore and get to know the place, you may be staying for a while until the Ultra Guardians can send you home.
6. BattleWhat is Pokemon life without Battling? Now that you have your Pokemon, you can battle with them. But Pokemon battles aren’t just about training but about forming a bond. There’s no such thing as levels in this world, the level system isn’t really a thing here. Sure there’s math and science to count the precise numbers of a Pokemon’s strength but we don’t dwell on this sort of thing. What’s important is forming these bonds with your Pokemon, and learning how to communicate with them, making precious ties with them. Eat, sleep and cherish them as your own family. Manalo, and Ohana. No one is left behind, or forgotten.
7. FreeformAnything Goes! Come at you, this is a wide world, make up your own prompt!
