Below his eyebrows are a pair of dark amber-brown eyes that have seen a lot more then most. Seph tries to keep a smirk or smile on his face, but its been rather hard for him the last few years. The claw scars down his back, and bite scar on his right thigh are not even nearly enough to describe what Seph has gone through.
Seph tends to stick with dull and solemn colors these days though he used to be a bit more out going. He wears a dark gray long sleeve shirts, and a dark red jacket over top. He has a pair of black and navy jeans to wear on his journey, and some good old hiking boots as well. Seph pulls a black and dark red baseball cap on over his mop of hair and slings a good old fashioned backpack over his shoulder.

History
: Some would call Seph's life lucky, but in the end its all the same. His town was the tiniest speck of a far north mountain village on the maps, and stayed free for slightly longer then others. Still with only the town free it became his jail cell. Still a child the adults decided the less he knew the better. Perhaps it would end before he was of age. Maybe he'd stand a chance. Well they were wrong. Dead wrong.
The Acies did find the town, and seeing was still 'free' went overboard to 'make up for those lost years'. Seph spent the next seven years living in that rule, and didn't get it at all. His parents tried to tell him what it was, but they Acies saw that as treason and took them away. Seph still doesn't know for sure, but he head two gun shots echo that day and never saw his parents again. So it was just him and his brother, Tyler. Tyler did know the truth already, and knew it was now his job to protect Seph.
Tyler took that job seriously. He never let Seph go anywhere alone, and always made sure to keep him out of trouble, but one time it was Seph who needed to get Tyler out of trouble. They had been walking and Tyler bumped into an Acies who had just come out of a pub. There was alcohol on his breath as he shouted at Tyler. Just that accident warranted the Acies to send out a mightyena on Tyler. The pokemon was viscious and terrifying to the young boys, but when the beast started to attack Seph tried his best to help his brother. Despite being nearly futile it was more a sign of his care for his brother.
Seph still feels lost in this world. More then half his life he knew nothing about the atrocities going on, and he feels as though he just sat aside getting to have his own life while other suffered. His past has left him secluded and very quiet execpt around his brother. To gain his trust is near impossible since he has closed out the world so much. He is afraid of what the world turned out to be, but doesn't let that show. He knows that he needs to stay strong because if he doesn't why should his brother?
Due to the mightyena incident Seph has mixed feelings on pokemon. Some terrify him other he doesn't mind. He is happy that wild pokemon are much more docile then the Acies ones, but they grew fewer and fewer as he got older. So now closed in and unable to speak up Seph has begun to boil over with thoughts of what this world really holds.
Roleplay Example
: (does dialoge count as anything?))
"Voltorb use spark!" The other trainer commanded.
Spinning around until he was only a blur the Voltorb began to charge up power then it rushed towards Raizer.
"Counter with a point blank ember!" I responded.
As the Voltorb crashed into Raizer he unleashed a burst of fire from his mouth. The attack covered the foe's face in flames. The Voltorb retreated, but it's attack had still done its job. Raizer shivered feeling the electricity flow through his body. I could feel it too. This was one of the things I never understood about pokemon. How could they take such hits and keep on going? Why couldn't my father.? He had thousands of volts go through him and he was left paralyzed permanently from the waist down. It was no where near as bad, but I felt his pain then.
"Raizer time to under mine our foe." I yelled.
"You got it!" Raizer roared.
In a fury of claws Raizer tore through the ground and disappeared into the earth. He ripped through the ground behind the Voltorb and jabbed a claw into its back. The Voltorb skidded across the field and fell into the same hole Raizer dug.
"I think your pokemon is done." I said.
"…yeah we've rolled over…" The trainer said returning his pokemon.
He tried to give me a couple bucks since I won, but I refused the money. I didn't want anything to do with this guy. Sure there was nothing wrong with him to most people, but he just didn't seem to be in it. He seemed like a joke. He had one weak pokemon, he made stupid quips, and he instantly was worried about paying me. He wasn't even a real trainer. To be a trainer you have to actually help your pokemon grow and care about their growth not just the battles.
