i do have a question! are "hemitheo bloodlines" canon claims? i gather their "families/clans" of some sort, meaning there would be a limited amount of them. are they important to the site plot? i'm wondering cause i'm hashing out the basics of my character and wanted to know if that was the case. like if i'll need a specific family name or something. was just curious! thanks in advance!

hi tenebrae , hemitheo bloodlines aren't canon claims or plot-related, but they are limited as you have purchase an item to create/be apart of one. the item is quite expensive, so most people won't start out in one, but our staff team is fine with retconning if you wanted to create your character and then purchase the item & update your application once you had enough currency to do so.

hopefully that answers your questions!

No reveal on trainer classes, sadly, but! I come bearing two things: a skin reveal, which comes in both light and dark mode;

...and an opening date, which will be September 26th so stay tuned!

How heavily based on Greco-Rome will this be? Like will I be able to play an out of touch 40 year old man named Patroclus Marcus Divinicus or smth who is a patron to a bunch of people and just so happens to run a team of goons or

This is definitely a character idea that wouldn't be out of the ordinary!

But overall, the site is more inspired by Greeco-Roman culture more than anything. So, while a lot of our setting and flavour is definitely drawn from their mythologies, culture and language, it's not a perfect reflection.

Those looking for more information, keep an eye on this thread as some lore may just find itself revealed in the coming days 👀

ASTONISH is an upcoming modern fantasy, Pokémon roleplay set in the Gaia Region, which draws inspiration from Greco-Roman culture and mythology. We are a non-canon, and alternate universe set in relation to the Pokémon canon.

We are currently in our beta-testing phase, and expect to open either later this month, or in early October. Keep an eye out for us!
