Name: Mia Areano
Age: (13-18) 16
Gender: Female
Appearance: Mia has a light skin tone, and has a slim frame. She has a smooth texture of her skin, as there are no cracks, or dry skin. Her skin is pale, but isn't albino. Since Mia doesn't believe in piercings, she has none.
Mia does not "work out" per say, but she gets a lot of exercise from swinging on vines. She has a slim frame, and a small build. Mia has natural muscle, but doesn't use it a lot. Other than the fat naturally used for the body, she has a little excess fat on her thighs, due to Mia being a healthy eater. Mia isn't very tall, either, as she stands at 5"2. She is exactly 115 lbs, though if you ask, she will not hesitate to slap you.
Mia's eyes are pale blue, as they seem to be the same color as the sky and the ocean. She has short eyelashes, and Mia has thin eyebrows. She has a petite nose. Mia's straight red hair reaches to the back of her shoulder-blades, which compliments her pale blue eyes. Mia has freckles on both of her cheeks, and they make it obvious when she's blushing.
For her everyday clothing, Mia sticks with a black tank top, which has a small leaf in the middle of it. She wears this, because the leaf shows her support of Grass-type Pokémon, as she always was fascinated by the type.
Mia will tie you up, and strangle you before you can get her to wear earrings. She hates the pain she has to go through to get them, so she doesn't bother. Mia prefers her look to be natural, which is why her hair is straight, and she doesn't have any piercings.
Mia wears a pair aqua-blue colored jeans everyday, as she believes they are comfortable. For footwear, Mia has black socks with green stripes at the top of them. These are covered by her boots, which are black, and have green laces. Her boots also cover a part of her jeans near the bottom.
Personality: Mia can be described as a nutcase at best. She knows the oddest things. For example, a normal girl her age knows how to apply makeup. Mia learned how to create an explosive out of anything. Her priorities of learning are quite different than what her parents expect, but she doesn't care. In fact, she believes that the techniques she's learning are better than just sitting inside studying books all day!
Just because she learned different things doesn't mean she's evil; she's pretty friendly, but just an oddball out of all people. Mia enjoys being herself, whether it means being an oddball, or being the most popular kid around. She doesn't care what people think of her, as she believes that she is beautiful for being herself.
Mia is somewhat carefree; responsibility avoids her, as she often isn't aware of her actions. She loses things regularly, because of her irresponsibility. However, she doesn't pay too much thought to the lost items.
Mia acts like a wild child, literally swinging on vines, and having no inhibitions. She wants to try out everything that she's heard about, even if it's life-risking. However, Mia is rather naive, sometimes believing in things that aren't necessarily true.
Despite her actions, Mia is shown to be somewhat intelligent, and knows self-defense if she needs to get out of a twist. She understands things in a way that the book-smart people don't really get. She believes that in order to go through a problem, you should go around it, and work backwards. Believe it or not, her ideas work most of the time, and her creative thinking often gets her out of a dangerous situation. Of course, the self-defense doesn't hurt.
Mia isn't judgmental, and gives everyone a chance before she judges them. She understands the feeling of being different. However, she'll get upset if you pretend to be someone you're not. Mia feels that people should just be themselves, rather than a copy of another.
The things she likes to do the most always have something to do with fire. This leaves others wondering about how she's still allowed in most of the regions of the Pokémon world. She considers fire to be energy, as opposed to the view of it being considered destruction. Mia has set things on fire more than once in her life, as she enjoys the ability to enjoy the radiance of the short burst of energy that lasted until you blew it out, or doused it.
She's extremely sneaky, being able to lurk around while hiding herself in camouflage with her surroundings. Mia enjoys scaring people, though she won't like it if she causes someone to get hurt, which, inevitably, happens sometimes. However, she laughs at many things, sometimes blowing her own cover. If that happens, Mia will literally scream "Cowabunga!" or "Geronimo!" and strike up a conversation with whoever finds her.
History: Mia was born inside her parents house in Oldale Town, on January 1st, 1996. The town doctor made the delivery. Her parents didn't know what to name her, until the doctors dropped her files, and screamed the words "Mama mia!" Since they were desperate, they decided to give her the name Mia.
Throughout school, Mia was showing signs of being incapable of learning the same things at the same level as the other kids. However, this didn't bother her too much, and when kids picked on her, she told them that she lived the way she wanted to. Despite her apparent "low intelligence," she quoted someone saying that "Your life's a book, and someone else shouldn't be the author," The kids left her alone after that, while Mia kept on learning things that were rather...different from the other kids.
Once, she covered her hands with gloves that had tiny hooks in them. She climbed to the ceiling of the classroom, using her contraption. When the teacher walked in, Mia simply smiled, and the teacher fainted; the kids high-fived Mia for that.
As she began to grow older, Mia began showing signs of becoming a lot more...insane, if you will. She began planting smoke bombs in the oddest of places, which caused the fire alarms to go off, leaving students and teachers alike soaking wet. When she came home from high school, she swung vines to get to her house, despite her parents telling her not to. Mia swung on vines because she thought that walking was too boring, and swinging on vines gave her something to look forward to at her very own hell known as "school." At other moments in time, Mia scared her parents by hiding in their closets, on the roof, or in the kitchen cabinets. She was impressed by her own hiding skills, and did this for quite a while.
The final straw for their parents was when she was swinging on a vine in Oldale Town. As Norman was passing by the town to check on his wife in Littleroot, Mia crashed into him on her vine, leaving both bruised and cut. Despite her injuries, Mia giggled at her actions. This didn't stop Norman berating her intensely afterwards, however, and her parents deciding that she needed to go to the Academy For Troubled Teens.
Her parents told her that she was going away to a boarding school, which Mia surprisingly accepted. However, when she got to the school in Rustboro by an escort which her parents hired, the teachers were tough on her and her actions. Mia felt as though she was losing herself, so she decided to make a final event before running away. Mia set the golf balls in the gymnasium on fire, causing enough of a distraction for her to escape from her personal hell-hole. The event was spectacular in her eyes, and it began to spark an interest in fire, no pun intended.
After she left the academy, Mia stowed away on a cargo ship headed for Johto. She always kept the folding fishing rod her parents gave to her for her tenth birthday on hand, and she lived on the algae at the bottom of the sea. Mia was a vegan, as she would never knowingly eat the meat of anything.
Remember when I said that Mia was allowed in most of the regions of the Pokémon world? Yes, that's right, I said most. Mia was traveling around in Johto as a prankster, setting off smoke bombs in people's houses. Finally, she got to Azalea Town, and when she got to Bugsy's gym, she had a hell of a time.
However, Mia accidentally set the gym on fire, and she evacuated the area before anyone could find her with her smoke bomb technique. Despite this precaution, Bugsy himself saw her, and reported her to the Johto International Police. After this action, Mia was deported back to Hoenn in Petalburg City, where she currently works as a clerk for the Poké Mart there. Her parents still think she is at boarding school, which is why they don't go out and look for her. Lately, she has been seen lurking around and stalking her customers after she sells them something at the Poké Mart, just to try and scare them. Not surprisingly, she does.
