Sign Up/Discussion Pokemon: Rainbow of the Stage

(this RP is rated E10+ for fantasy stage violence)

Inspired by this RP by @122 Generation and the anime Revue Starlight

The Kakuzen (sparkling) Theater, known far and wide across the Pokeworld for its lavish and spirited productions of folk tales, fairy tales, mythology, literary classics, and sometimes original stories inspired by these. Aspiring actors, performers, and crew members attend the company's onsite academy before they officially debut, where they learn how to act, how to sing, how to play instruments, how to dance, how to fight onstage, how to perform acrobatics, and more.

Both boys and girls join the Kakuzen every year, and train for three years before they are placed in one of the Kakuzen's eight jewel themed troupes. In addition to a knowledgeable teaching staff, actors from the eight troupes frequently pitch in to mentor the students, and sometimes play certain roles in the students' plays.

You play one of the members of the Kakuzen's 64th class of trainees--will you go on to stardom in the Kakuzen, or will you be famous for all the wrong reasons?
