Play by Post (PBP) Pokémon Primal - The Ancient Pokémon Guardian
Powered by the Apocalypse RPG | Campaign
About the adventure
In a lush prehistoric world filled with vibrant flora and fauna, Pokémons roam the land, the water, and the sky. The tribes of humans coexist with Pokémon, relying on them for hunting, protection, and companionship. The players are members of a tribe known as the "Stoneclaw Clan," living near a sacred mountain said to be the home of legendary Pokémons. Recently, strange natural disasters—earthquakes, storms, and droughts—have begun to plague the region. Taiga, the clan's shaman, believes these events are tied to the anger of the ancient Pokémon guardians that protect the mountain. Are you ready to embark on this journey and find out what is happening?
Game style
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.
Roleplay Heavy
“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.
Combat Heavy
“Combat Heavy” games emphasize the combat mechanics within their systems over roleplay or puzzle solving. There are frequent and longer battles with enemies and a greater emphasis on tactical game play.
