[Faction] The Pidgey Post
« on: January 29, 2012, 10:41:57 pm »
The Pidgey Post

Logo:

Background Story: When the first settlers arrived on Miryus, news was conveyed by word of mouth. This was due to the fact that the only permanent habitation was located in Port Ouro. Explorers and the like stayed and travelled in small groups of tents. Due to the basic method of communication, messages often took weeks to arrive and were distorted due to the many retellings. Of course, it was only a short while before this became outdated, and the Rapidash Courier Service was formed. It was created by a few out of work cowboys, who used their steeds to quickly deliver letters.
      There were extreme limitations however, as only so much weight could be carried by a man on a horse. Eventually, as new towns and villages were founded, a rival service was set up. Naming themselves the Pidgey Post, they used their variety of bird Pokémon to fly from town to town, delivering packages and parcels. This in itself presented a problem; customers would be required to visit their local town to pick up their deliveries, whereas the RCS was more than happy to come to you in person. For a few years, the two co-existed, their differences allowing them to attract different markets. 
      Recently, the increasing amounts of criminal activity have made land routes unsafe, and the RCS has been formally disbanded after raids made them unreliable. The absence of competition has driven the Pidgey Post into a state of laziness, and many a trainer has been known to offer their services as a freelance courier to make ends meet. Despite this, a new act has been passed with the intention of building a post depot in every hamlet across the region.

If you ever watched the anime ( yes, i'm ashamed I did), a Rapidash's will not burn the rider or their cargo so long as it has respect for them. But Declan may have a different explanation for it.

Good read. Even though this is off-topic, a little?

But I'd add breaks in the paragraphs. I ended up reading like four sentence over again.

But good stuff over all.

Yup, that pretty much sums things up.

Yeah, I forgot that copying from Word doesn't keep the formatting :(

Will there be post offices in the towns? Or can't you get mail.

There will be post offices in the towns. That's why there's this faction.
RP Pokemon:
No one can go back and change a bad beginning; but anyone can start now and create a successful ending.
If a problem can be solved, no need to worry about it. If it cannot be solved what is the use of worrying?

Currently playing Pokemon Black, Pokemon Nobunaga (JPN), Okami Den, Bowser's Inside Story. Looking for a cheap-er 3DS than those 300 EUR ones here. Otherwise, getting tons of work and things to learn. Fun fun...

Rapidash Courier Service, eh?

That reminds of real-life Pony Express :)

RAINBOW Rapidash Courier Service you say? ;D

I have to stop posting this crap :-\

Now, on-topic... yay! I can get letters and packages \o/
I guess this is the mail service we use to contact other people and get welcome messages every day and quest rewards if we're out in the field and.... yeah... You know what I mean  8)

You're right Yorkin, I think the Rapidash service is supposed to resemble the Pony Express. The Pidgey Post sounds more like a news paper to me, but I still like it as the name for a courier service.
