Site Name:
The Horo Region
Site Genre:
Pokemon RPG
Brief Plot Description:
[/font][/size][/center]
Located in the far north of the world in a land of ice and snow, is the "last stronghold for wild Pokémon", the Horo Region. Named after the native Holuit Tribe's revered goddess, Holo, the region stands wild and untamed in the face of the human civilization which tries to coexist in the harsh wilderness.
... However, it is not the bitter cold that poses a problem for the people who live in the region, but it is instead the people themselves.
Recently, the region has split into two halves: Southern Horo, this center for ecotourism is in closer contact to the rest of the world and boldly supports its very own Pokémon league and other modern facilities, whereas the other half, Northern Horo, remains frozen in time -- at least politically -- with a regime that stands to not only oppress its people, but also the last members of the Holuit tribe who reside within Northern Horo's border.
To separate the two regions, a Wall of ice and cement -- manned by Northern Horo Soldiers -- has been the topic of criticism and controversy, however Northern Horo refuses to withdraw its troops, and has even deployed their army against the Holuit Rangers, who dedicate their lives to preserving the wilds.
Horo stands on thin ice as the youth of Northern Horo make a stand against their oppressive regime, and as the people of Southern Horo choose to remain blind and deaf to the problems that stir just outside their border...
Those who believe in the old ways truly believe that the great goddess and the Pokémon are the only way to resolve these conflicts.
...
But what hope does a goddess have against a whirling mass of ice and snow, and the monstrous power and greed of human nature?

Trapped in ice and snow
the Goddess waits for the warmth of spring
Sun-shining down upon her back,
Her graceful form is slowly revealed with the dawn of a new day
