    Speaking of Twin Leaf Village...

    Is this region's geography roughly based on what would be Sinnoh today?

    For the most part, yes--since we don't know much about Hisui yet, I am using my own expanded map of Hisui

    Sign Language in Hisui

    In this version of Hisui, sign language grew out of ninja hand signs, as both a means of communication for the deaf and hard of hearing, plus a discrete way for hearing people to communicate if talking, instruments, or other noisemaking devices would be too dangerous.

    The basic building blocks of the language (called ningo, literally "ninja-language") are based on real Japanese Sign Language, but it is possible to communicate entire sentences or paragraphs with one gesture.

    For example, Emerald Raikou can introduce himself by simply forming the actual sign for the character e, which resembles an outstretched claw. If the claw is not completely formed, it means "I am Emerald Raikou--I come in peace." If the claw is completely formed, bad guys need to run, because Emerald Raikou means business!

    Some other real signs and their fantastic meanings are:

    ki--any Delphox or Ninetales. If he means Golden Delphox specifically, he will sign kin (which resembles the character), and then sign ki.
    ke--I promise/On my honor (since the sign resembles a scouting sign)
    sa--I'm prepared to fight (since the real sign is a fist)--all Emerald Raikou has to do to intimidate bad guys is make a fist before preparing a shot or spell
    ta--Yes!/Well done! (since the sign is a thumbs up) Can also mean "Clear of danger" or "It's safe"
    te--Stop!/Wait! (since the sign is an outstretched hand)
    me--All right/Understood/Clear (since the sign resembles a Western OK sign)

    (my source for my research)

    Is it safe to say that (at least) Makoto can understand sign?

    Speaking of Sinnoh, we have these locations so far:
    • Twinleaf: Twin Leaf Village
    • Oreburgh: Iron Village
    • Pastoria: Wild Marsh Village
    How about other places? Like towns, cities, and other prominent places like the Lake Guardians' homes?

    I'm kinda wondering if Mount Coronet is still Mount Coronet here tho.

    Fair enough. But still... maybe we can keep Jubilife Village and Mount Coronet here? They've been established in Legends: Arceus already.

    Those are still there, with new-ish names that fit this version of Hisui.

    Eh, I don't mind tbh. We're still relatively early in the story.

    Final decision is still up to @WavePearl tho.

    It's only the second town, and we're still doing introductions, I think. Still up to @WavePearl.

    Thanks. I hope this is acceptable and meets your standards.

    Character's name: Suto Mai
    Character's age: 18
    Character's physical appearance: Mai has long, flowing brown hair, and she wears a handmade kimono, which her Pokémon helped design
    Character's personality/known history: Mai isn't much of a talker, mainly only providing occasional quips when she feels it's necessary; since she's a wandering warrior, she wandered Hisui in search of a quest, potentially to hone her ki abilities, until she passed through True Sand Village and overheard Sage Rowan converse with other heroes about a quest to find White Ghost and the dragon pearls that are somewhere in Hisui; she doesn't quite know what this quest has in store, but she's still willing to help
    Character's known Pokémon, if any: Mosugaba the Mosunou (Frosmoth; shiny); Aaron the Lucario; Taiko the Gorirandā (Rillaboom) (they all walk beside her, like following Pokémon)
    Character's preferred style: ki (yellow)
    Character's school/sect: Mai is a wandering warrior
