Uniting Aurora OOC

Name: Anne Linwood

Gender: Female

Age: 24

Appearance: Anne is rather short, only 5 feet, and has a small build. She often gets mistaken for someone younger because of her small size. She has long and curly black hair that is very thick and reaches her waist. Her almond eyes that are dark brown, and she has olive skin. She isn't muscular at all, and doesn't have very good stamina so she gets tired out easily.

Her clothes depend on her location, but she usually tries to dress for comfort rather than style. In very cold weather, she usually layers up a lot. She like wearing a forest green turtle neck, with a white blouse underneath, and black sweatpants with long johns and leggings. On top of this she has a chocolate brown hoodie, and over everything she has a heavy white winter coat. She also has long and thick fuzzy socks with snow boots, and a knitted brown winter hat.

Personality: Anne is a quiet and polite young lady, whose mind is always somewhere else. She loves to daydream, which leads to trouble focusing on anything. She also tends to forget things easily, and misplace items. Still, she is vert creative and artsy, and enjoys coming up with ideas for projects and crafts. She also enjoys reading books as a hobby, with a preference of fantasy over romance.

She loves children, and works at a daycare. She would love to have children of her own someday, but is too shy to get into a relationship. Still, she is very caring to her children at the daycare and her Pokemon as well. She often lets them play together. She is a pacifist and doesn't like violence, but if its to protect others or she has no choice, then she will try to win the battle as quickly as possible to cause less pain.

History: Anne grew up as an only child to a single mother. Since her mother was often at work, she usually felt pretty lonely, and only made a couple friends at school, because she was extremely shy back then. However, she was given a pet Growlithe for her birthday, which made her a lot happier. He gave her the courage to open up to other people, and she started to make more friends.

At 10 years old, she heard about a lot of kids getting Pokemon and starting a journey. She thought that it would be fun to try, too. Unfortunately, she wasn't very good at catching Pokemon, since she didn't want to hurt it. Feeling sorry for her, her mother caught a Spheal for her to have. She was happy, but somewhat upset at the fact that she couldn't do it herself. When the other kids wanted to challenge her to a battle, she always refused, and decided that she won't become a trainer after all if all they do is fight.

After finishing high-school, Anne decided to become a nurse like her mom so she could help others. However, she couldn't stand the sight of blood, so decided against it. Instead she studied to become a teacher. Unfortunately, most of the teaching jobs in her area were for middle or high school, and she didn't want to deal with teenagers. There was, however, a job in the daycare center, so she works there instead. She has been working there for a couple years now, and since then she caught a Zuruggu that had been playing pranks around the daycare.

Aristo Ortega
Nineteen/Male


Appearance: Aristo stands 5'10", and weighs 150 lbs. He has a regular shaped head in comparison to his body. He has emerald eyes. His has brown hair that comes down into his eyes and covers his large, pointed ears. He has small muscle tone in his upper body with little definition on his arms, and a small six pack. His chest is the same with little tone. He has a large butt for his size that shows through his jeans. His thigh muscles are also large in relation to his body, and his calves are built to run for miles. He has a slightly large foot wearing a size ten shoe.

He wears a sunset orange toboggan with that covers all his hair except his banns. He also wears sunglasses that make him cooler than he thinks he is. He wears a blue long sleeved shirt with the symbol of a pokeball on it, and a black winter coat zipped over it. He has green army cargo pant that has many pockets where he keeps most of his pokeballs stored. He has a pair of brown boots that hides his gray tube socks. He carries around a gold backpack that is used to store all of his items that he might need on his journey. It has a black lightning bolt in the middle of the bag.

Personality: Aristo is a calmed, relaxed sort of person who is outgoing, and drives for success. Although he thinks he is cooler than everyone else is he barely takes part in "childish games". He is very protective to the ones he loves standing up in the face of danger. Although he has his open side, he also has his dark side. He is very mischievous, and will steal anything that will keep him alive. He is also very playful and will be your friend if you are willing to accept him for who he really is. Although, he may look shy on the outside, he is anything but that on the inside being optimistic and positive.

He hates annoying people and will do anything he can to stray away from their presence. He always longs for a girlfriend, but never seems to find the perfect one for him. He worked at a bakery, so he knows how to cook at any time, even if he doesn't look like it.

History: Aristo was born to a rich family that lived in the heart of the City. He grew up with three brothers that were all older than he by at least three years. He always loved pokemon, because when he was eight his brothers all had their starter pokemon, and battled them around the house when their was nothing to do. Once a pokemon, he was the person to officially declare the battle over or not. Then, he would get the injured pokemon and care for them before one of his brothers returned it to its pokeball.

When he turned ten, all of his brothers had left to go on a journey together to catch pokemon for their parents to see. That left Aristo with his parents to learn all there is to know about pokemon from his father. After a year of learning about the basics of pokemon from his father, he finally got to get his starter pokemon, which was a Houndour that Aristo nicknamed Zippo. His dad wanted Aristo to be better than his brothers, so he decided to battle Aristo himself, which he never did with Aristo's siblings, and coach him all the strategies and possible move combinations that would ensure the battle to Aristo.

After two years, when Aristo was thirteen, one of Aristo's brothers ran into the house and locked the doors. He looked bloody and beaten. Aristo's mom rushed to his brother, Cody, to ask where his other siblings were. Fighting back tears, Cody replied with only two words before he passed out from blood loss, get away. They rushed Cody to the hospital, and stayed there for about two hours before Cody was in any condition to speak. He told Aristo and his parents the story of Team Obsidian beat him and his brothers getting beaten and taking their pokemon. Also, about his brothers trying to overcome the guards, and losing their life in the struggle.

As soon as Cody was released from the hospital the family of now four moved to the Island to hopefully get away from Team Obsidian. Cody helped Aristo train to become the best trainer to beat Team Obsidian. After being on the Island for six years, and catching two more pokemon he fell asleep and woke in a dark room. After the briefing of the mission and seeing the other trainers he thought that this was his chance to take revenge on Team Obsidian for what they did to his brothers.

Additional information: He likes Zippo better than his other pokemon.

Region: Mountains

Name: Trevor Selstone
Gender: Male
Age: 17
Appearance: Trevor has dark, deep green eyes, almost to the point of black. He has elevated cheek-bones, a triangular chin, and short, spiky, black hair. He constantly wears a white puca shell necklace around his neck, even when sleeping. His face is a lighter tanned color, along with the rest of his body. He stands at a staggering 6' 10. Other than large arms and shoulders, the rest of his body is relatively bulky. He always is wearing a black sweater, but it is never zipped, and, usually, the sleeves are rolled to his elbows. Underneath the sweater is a plain white T-shirt. He always wears a thick leather band and black watch on his left wrist, but nothing on his right. He also wears dark navy-blue athletic shorts. Black and white sports shoes with dark green laces, mimicking his eyes, surround size 17 feet.

Personality: He is constantly relaxed, and, even through stressful situations, keeps his relaxed demeanor. He isn't lazy, however, and is always motivated and self-sufficient. He is not the most outgoing person, but isn't reserved. However, many people, including his friends, have a hard time getting him to talk about himself because he often responds in short, hasty answers, or reflects the topic back at the asker. He, by nature, prefers to listen, and if someone wanted to learn about him, they would have to probe. He is of above-average intelligence, but sometimes people mistake him for being a stereotypical "jock" because of his love of sports. He enjoys friendship, but has his streaks of obliviousness. Once you get to know him, he opens up more. He is a silent leader and protector.

History: Lacking a father figure throughout childhood, he was jealous of others that had fathers. He, being a relaxed and quiet person, didn't express his jealousy, and as the years went by, he started to not be as jealous as he once was. He had no idea where his father was, and neither did the rest of the family: Mom and his much older sister. His mother was often gone, working, so he spent time he had at home with his sister. Much of his time was occupied by sports, due to his natural ability. He was very good at what sports he tried, and this made him well-liked with his peers. His general gentle and relaxed demeanor also contributed to his reputation. Even without a father figure, he still had a relatively normal childhood. Although he didn't need to try hard to be liked, he still felt socially awkward for only being able to relate to people through sports. He liked Pokemon, but never had the time to spend time with him. His sister's Pokemon were a part of his family, but he never had any of his own. (Until now)

Additional Information: Despite his skills in sports, he is not the fastest runner.

Region: Jungle

Name: Zasu Kuriar
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Appearance: Zasu is of average size, around 5' 11". He has slightly messy brown hair, looks like he just got out of bed, but the tips are dyed blue, so you know it's a hairstyle. He has cold gray eyes, but a friendly expression. Skin slightly pale, but not unhealthy. He is a bit skinny, but it's not really noticable. He always wears a rider jacket like this: http://www.offroadexplorer.com/Revie...iderJacket.jpg Sometimes it's blue and black, sometimes red and black, sometimes yellow and black. Normal jeans. Vans skate shoes, all black. He always wears a ring with a garnet in the shape of a heart on his left hand.

Personality: Zasu is pretty easygoing. He is just fine with anything that happens, never seems to get worked up. He dislikes fighting, unless it's for a good reason. If he is guarding something important other than himself, he will stand up and fight. If he himself is threatened, he just sits back and remains calm. He will only do what is necessary to prevent himself from dying. His laid back personality has gotten himself in trouble more than a few times, as he speaks what's on his mind, without regards for whose feelings they hurt. Everytime, though, he doesn't mean it, and apologizes afterwards. He loves to explore, and is always looking for a new place to go, and new species of pokemon to study. Officially, I guess you could say he is a Pokemon researcher, but he is so carefree, it's hard to tell. Still, he knows a fair few about Pokemon as a species.

History: Zasu grew up in a very poor household, with only his mother. His mother used to be considered an expert on Pokemon along with his father, but Team Obsidian destroyed the lab where his mother was working. His father was killed, and his mother was the only survivor. She ran and took Zasu, who was six then, to another city. Since then Zasu's mother had a hard time getting ahold of a house. She was finally able to get some money that Zasu found somewhere. Zasu said someone gave it to him, but what really happened was Zasu pickpocketed from one of the richest guys in town. Zasu got away undiscovered, but still felt guilty. Zasu and his mother slowly lived a poor yet comfortable life, then Zasu's mother fell ill. This is when Zasu was 13.
His mother spend her last 3 months at home, teaching Zasu everything she knew. At the end, she said, "Zasu, my dear, I love you so much. Use the information I gave you, and become a successful Pokemon Researcher." She gave him the ring, saying it was a gift from his father. She died 2 days later, and Zasu, unable to fend for himself, had to live on the streets. He stayed strong, knowing his mother was depending on him. He barged in a nearby city's lab, and asked to become an intern. He, of course, got rejected. He ran out in the nearby forest, and found a woman studying Shroomish. This woman was wearing a lab coat, so Zasu started telling her everything he knew about this species, as it had lived close to his second house. She was impressed, and decided to take Zasu in out of kindness. Zasu has been working/living at the lab since he was 14.

Name: Jennifer "Jen" Glais

Gender: Female

Age: 19

Appearance: Jennifer is about 5'6" and has a small tan. Her hair is light brown and medium-long hair. Her hair covers one of her eyes. Her Eyes are a deep blue color. Her face is rather average. Her teeth aren't bright white, but they are still pretty white.
Normally, she wears some jeans and flip-flops. Along with this she wears a white short sleeve shirt and a grey jacket. In the tropical beach she wears flip-flops, a pair of shorts, and a white t-shirt.

Personality: Jennifer is an extremely shy person. She is very quiet unless she is with family or close friends. Ever since the tenth grade, Jenn has been trying to become more outgoing, and it has kinda helped. In situations that require she can communicate really well, but otherwise, she is more likely to listen than to lead.
She is a very happy person that is as optimistic as possible. And she is easily amused, making her easily distracted. Along with this, she is really clumsy, and it seems to follow her every where since everywhere she goes, she seems to knock something over.

History: Jen was a relatively normal person. She had just graduated from high school, and was applying for college when she was brought here. She is an only child, and her father died when she was about 5 years old. Because she is so shy, she spent the first year of high school with only a couple friends. Her grades were okay most of the year, getting mostly B's.

Region: Tropical beach

Name: Joey Bronx

Gender: Male

Age: 18 and a half

Appearance: Joey's hair is a pale shade of bronze, with bangs cut short recognizable by the M-shaped cut in it. He wears a dark blue headband that covers the whole upper region of his hair. He has hazel eyes that is almost always half-closed, casualty of his relaxed nature. His nose is pointed at a strange angle (in a good way xP). His build is semi-athletic; not exactly six-pack, but not scrawny either. His left tendon area has a 12-year old scar on it, for reasons unknown. His legs are thin and muscled, and because of this he's very fast when running.

His casual outfit consists of his favorite dark blue headband, with a black shirt and a dark blue open-middle vest. The bottoms often vary depending on his mood, but most often he is seen wearing black or white baggies. He also puts on a bead necklace that his grandmother, who lives in the Jungle, made for him, and a piece of open-fingered black bracer that he puts on his left hand. His only shoes are black combat boots, which he fished up the beach when he was 8. However, it hinders Joey's favorite aspect of himself (his speed), so he often goes barefoot.

Personality: Relaxed and drawn back, Joey is usually oblivious to whatever goes around him. He is also not a very good person to confide in, as he rarely listen to what he considers a "blabbering," which is really just a talk that doesn't involve him doing the speaking part. It's very hard to get him in focus. He seems to get a distinct pleasure in seeing others acting dumbly. However, Joey always keeps his thoughts to himself if he thinks that the listener wouldn't like what he is saying. Joey is very persuasive when he speaks; he has never failed to embarass people who dares to argue with him.

When you get Joey to crack and get angry at you, he will use snide remarks and words to ashame the offender. He doesn't like it when someone thinks that they're better than him, and will often do ridiculous stuff just to disprove the claim. However, he will never use his fist when his words will do. He stands up for what he believes at times, but most of the time he lays low and keeps to the shadows.

History: Born as a single child to a set busy parents, Joey doesn't have anybody to socialize with. Although his childhood was showered with toys and luxuries aplenty, he hated that life and envied anyone who wasn't locked up in a room with a bunch of lifeless friends. His grandmother sometimes visited and kept him company, though. When he turned 16, his house was broken into and he caught the thief. The thief begged Joey to let him go, because he needed the things to feed his children and wife, and wouldn't have done it if he didn't have to. Joey felt pity of the burglar, and did as he asked.

After his 18th birthday, which his parents forgot, as always, Joey decided that it was time for him to be independent and free from the chains that bound him for 18 miserable years. He came to the thief who broke into his house 2 years ago and asked him to teach him how to survive on his own. The thief consented, because Joey basically saved his family from starvation. After learning the necessary skills, Joey set out by himself to gamble with his life. Though he never got into stealing, he has nimble fingers that he found very useful to do lockpicking for people who got lost keys to various things - house, treasure chest, things of that nature - and earned himself a bit of spending money and a small apartment in the outskirts of the beach.

Additional information: He can open locks and things, and is naturally very quick. He is also a motivational speaker.

Region: Tropical Beach

Name: James Barratt

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Appearance: He has Green eyes but always wears Brown contacts because he dislikes his green eyes and medium length black hair. His eyes aren't too big or too small and are quite close together. His nose is quite small. It goes over one eye and kinda spikes up at the back(number 36 in this image (http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/f/20...doggerland.png))He wears a T-Shirt (the pattern varies but it is normally dark in colour) and Dark Blue Jeans. He also wears a black jacket. He always wears Converse All Stars and the colour is normally a colour that goes with the T-Shirt but sometimes wears black ones.
He is mixed race so his skin colour makes him looked tanned. He is shorter then most people but not by much and he keeps his body fit but he doesn't have huge muscles.

Personality: James is someone who likes to be with people but not too many. He hates being surrounded and loves the open space. He is kind to his close friends but can be quite shy. He likes Pokemon that are caring but could protect him at any time. He has a bit of an anger problem which normally kicks in when he is lost, annoyed or confused and sometimes takes it out on people, even if he doesn't mean to.It takes James a while to get used to being with new people and becoming friends with them. He always thinks that he isn't as good as anyone else due to his brother of 20 years always outshining him.He likes most music but extremely dislikes Classical music. He was pretty smart and thought he was smart enough to get him by. James can be very thoughtful in calm situations, thinking things out , but when he gets irritated or the situation is 'heated' he acts very hastily, not thinking things through before he does something.

History: James grew up with his brother who is 3 years older than him, his mother who is very protective and his father who worked as a house designer. His father was injured when James was 9 due to a house he was designing falling in on him and permanently damaging his legs. Ever since his father has been in a wheelchair. This made their mother always be too protective as she didn't want anything to happen to them. His brother and James were close but his brother would always outshine James. James had always had a passion to be an explorer with Pokemon but his mother had always told him it was too dangerous. He has always lived on the beach and most days he stares out to the island wondering what is out there. At the age of 10 he vowed to himself to go out and search the island.

James grew further apart from his brother as his brother went to the city to study music a year before 'Team Obsidian' pitted the regions against each other which made his brother have to live there until the regions were brought back to peace. Their Mum always taught them to chase their dreams but when James told her he wanted to search the island she told him 'You can't do that because it is too dangerous.' James wanted to prove her wrong. He goes to uni and studies languages on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays but he works on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. This leaves Sunday for his free time which is normally taken up by studying. He does this so he can afford to explore the island

Region: The Island

Name: Kerri Sumaney

Gender: Female

Age: 24

Appearance: At five foot tall, 100 pounds, Kerri is shorter and thinner than most people. Despite her size, her body is solid with lean muscle. Her skin is pale white, like someone who doesn't get much sun. Her eyes are large and bright red, while her nose is small and round. Her hair is white and reaches her shoulders. She prefers to wear it in a ponytail, but leaves the bangs covering her forehead.

She always wears long clothes, prefering white shirts and black pants. She also wears a grey vest, with a purple tie to add some color. She wears simple white running shoes with grey socks, and ties her hair with a purple hair tie. Her pants are black leather, with a black leather belt wrapped in purple fabric.

Personality: As her clothing style suggests, she has a simple and cool personality. She is quiet and a bit of a loner, prefering to stay under the radar. Despite what people may think, she is not depressed or sad, actually happy and friendly, but in a subtle way.

She is quite intelligent and analytical, but lacks social skills. She enjoys puzzles and games (for the mental workout), running and exercise (letting the steady rythyms drown out other people), and drinking (her main vice. She is a bit of an alcoholic.)

History: Kerri had a rough childhood, a single child in a poor family. Her parents worked differant shifts, so she only spent time with one parent at a time. Her mother worked nights, making Kerri stay quiet during the day so her mother could sleep. At night, her father liked to bring friends over, making her stay out of the way or fetch them food.

In school, Kerri was shunned or mocked due to her looks and personality. Counselors tried several methods of getting her to fit in, but they mainly failed or backfired. People mainly came to her if they wanted her to help them with something, but she aprreciated any positive interaction.

When she turned 18, she moved to the city, getting a small apartment and a variety of jobs. She has worked at stores (both as a clerk and in the back), as a food server, and briefly as a mail carrier. When she turned 21, she rediscovered the drinks her father enjoyed and occasionally shared with her, drinking them daily. She is content with her life, letting it take her where it will, always ready for something new.

Additional information: Kerri is an albino.

Name: Kobora King
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Appearence: Standing at 5'3", and 125 pounds, Kobora's appearence really isn't much of his best factor. Kobora has green eyes sometimes hidden by a pair of sunglasses he keeps with him all the time. He has short white hair, which is rarely seen since he wears the hood to his cloak to hide his hair. He has some muscle, but it's completely unseen due to the cloak he wears. Kobora has dark skin, but you can't really see it due to his cloak.

For clothes, Kobora wears a black and green cloak that's too big for him to wear (Exactly like Organization 13's cloaks from Kingdom Hearts). He also wears a pair of black boots with a blue fire design on them. He wears a necklace with a wierd stone on it.
Personality: Kobora is an extremely shy and secluded guy since his own friend tried to kill him during his sophomore year. Due to his shy nature, he won't really open up to people that easily. He won't really speak much to people at all.

If you try to make Kobora angry, he will not do anything about it unless it involves his family. If you say anything bad about Kobora's family, he might try to get the person to take the remark back before he fights back. If you can somehow gain Kobora's trust, he's a really nice guy.
History: During his school years, Kobora wanted nothing more than to train and hone his skills in many areas, such as physical combat, music, and sports, especially basketball. Kobora was a huge fan of basketball, and soon joined his high school basketball team during his freshman year. Soon...that all changed. He made a friend from his basketball team. He trusted this 'friend' a lot. When Kobora was starting up his sophomore year, his own friend tried to kill him since Kobora was the best player on the basketball team. After that, Kobora left the basketball team, and no longer trusted anybody. When his juinor year started, Kobora became a very shy, secluded person, wearing a black and green cloak around everywhere he went.

By the time Kobora was halfway through his juinor year, he wouldn't speak to anybody, not even the teachers. Kobora lost all trust in everybody, even his parents, who were rarely at home.
