[X] My Assistant

[orihime20]

I have something to say as well... First, it's about time this started (even though it hasn't yet I'm still glad we're going to soon)! ^^

Second, I have a part-time job and won't be online until after work. Plus my hours are different every week. However, I'll still have time to reply. I just thought I'd give everyone a heads up.

[Runi]

@Dark - I'll look at your profile tonight. Sorry, I know it's not really fair to you, but I'm not at a comp atm so i can't review it.
Accepted~. Get your Loyal up ASAP!

@Fuji - Accepted too!

@Blazi - That's alright, thank you for telling me! Hope you don't get too stressed out at school and be sure to read/stalk thorugh this RP |D

@Pika - Have a fun time at boot camp! However, in your case, because you won't able to post for 2 weeks and it wouldn't be fair to start you off and then leave 2 people hanging, I'm not going to assign you a Gijinka for your Loyal. Instead, I think that I'll have to do a Gijinka switch. Basically, your Loyal will be MIA for a while. Your Subject will get their DNA, but they won't be assigned to a Loyal. When you come back, your Gijinka will replace another Gijinka, and your Loyal will get that Gijinka. Unless someone else has a better idea of how to tackle this dilemma. I'm open to all suggestions.

@Fallen - I have no problem with you joining in, as long as you can get your characters in by the deadline and they're up to par, which I'm sure they'll be. Knock yourself out ~

@Arc - I'd be amused to see what you predicted x3

@Ori - Thanks for telling me! That's fine, as long as you can get a post a say in (:

Name [Nickname if applicable]: Christina Russel, nicknamed E.C. (stands for Evil Christina) by people that don’t understand her and Christie by friends and family.

Gender: Female

Age: 18

Subject appearance: Christina stands at 5'3“ in height and weighs 140 lbs. Her eyes are a striking blue colour that can easily instill fear within hearts and her hair is a beautiful golden blonde. Liking her hair to be long, it reaches three inches down her back and is completely straight.

Underneath a thin unzipped white and yellow jacket with zigzags she has a black shirt with a light blue dragon on the front. The sleeves of the shirt aren’t visible underneath the jacket though they only cover her shoulders. At the bottom of her shirt, it meets a pair of long trousers that almost trail along the ground that are completely white.

A golden chain necklace with a crescent moon on it is around her neck while on her fingers she has black claw weapons that she can use to scratch and maul people.

For footwear she simply wears white and yellow trainers as well as white socks.

Gijinka appearance: (Please leave blank, but keep the slot open because you’ll be filling this out later. Include height, weight, eyes, hair, skin, features, anything and everything you can think of! Try minimum 2 paragraphs. Don’t bother with clothing though, because that’ll be up the Creators and Loyals ~)

Personality: Christina is a very very short tempered person that hates being treated like an animal or a servant. If given a command, she will just growl and try to attack the person if possible. If asked politely however, she is far more likely to obey, depending on the tone though, she may become irritated and disobey anyway. This short temper can lead her to killing people in anger without regret or clear reason.

Being strongly sadistic and masochistic, she can seem completely heartless and uncaring with the way she acts because she likes inflicting and receiving pain. However, she is neither heartless or uncaring, she is really a good person but has a very extreme way of dealing with problems. She seems this way because she will say she doesn’t care about people that show no signs of liking her and only show fear towards her. Really though, she is just really picky with who she befriends and only wants to be friends with people that don’t fear her. Despite this though, who she chooses to defend from danger can seem completely random. It can be someone that reminds her of people she used to know or someone she doesn’t even know but, it is usually someone she likes or someone that is unable to defend themselves.

When alone, she will quietly mutter to herself and sometimes even play boardgames by herself as if other people are playing with her. Though she is insane, this isn’t due to her insanity, it is simply due to loneliness meaning she has to distract herself somehow. Occasionally though, she will mutter the names ‘Kera’, ‘Cassandra’ or ‘David’ without mentioning any relation to them or who they really are before switching topics. It could be easily assumed that they are old friends or family members.

As intelligent as she is, she is also very insane and speaks in a manner which can make her point difficult to understand. Her thoughts contain a mixture of pictures, images of numbers, and images of letters with words very rarely being actually ‘said’ within her mind. The way she speaks isn’t coherent and her tone is deeply aggressive at all times even if her voice is clearly meant to be of a higher pitch. Whenever her thoughts are more focused, her speech becomes clearer and makes more sense while her voice becomes higher pitched and more friendly.

The things that she like are cheese, cat-like and mice-like Pokémon, people that don’t fear her, tea, fighting, inflicting pain, receiving pain, writing poetry, painting, listening to classical music, killing people that make her angry, video games and anything horror related. The only time she seems perfectly sane is when she is drinking tea because her speech is perfect as her thoughts are completely focused.

When with others, she will act quite freaky by doing things like tilting her head to an odd angle or tensing her muscles to make her movements seem slow and odd. Just to add to the creepy factor, she will also make sudden movements. However, this is just to test how easily they will become frightened and she won’t bother if she feels tired or lazy at the time.

A vice of hers that can be beneficial to others is that she is lazy and won’t spend a lot of time on things that don’t interest her. Unless you attack her first, she won’t spend a lot of time or effort on killing you because as much as she likes inflicting pain, she doesn’t like wasting energy. This doesn’t mean she will quit trying to kill you though, if you happen to be really good at avoiding attacks then she will keep attacking until you do die.

There is absolutely nothing that she seems to have a fear of or particularly dislikes besides orders, filth, and people picking on the weak. The reason she hates others picking on the weak is unclear to everyone that doesn't know her or are unable to read her thoughts.

A side of her you wouldn’t know existed if you looked at her is a strongly artistic side. If locked in a room with only art supplies and water, she would quite happily make a lot of artistic pieces without a second thought about it. Not being a fan of abstract, they would mostly be of things she has seen or has imagined within her own crazy mind. To allow limited distractions and to prevent herself losing her temper, she completely tunes out all sounds around her as if they don’t exist. While creating art, she won’t speak at all or respond to you because of an immersion within her own thoughts.

If left with absolutely nothing to do and she is sure there is no way out, then she will most likely clean everything until it is spotless simply because she despises filth. It is also her preferred activity if worried or upset to the extent that she will even do it in her sleep and wake up while doing so. It is a rather odd activity to do but as it was what she usually did at home to keep her insanity under control. Her thoughts are mostly focused during this kind of task so her speech is usually clearer than normal but still not completely normal. Sometimes though, her thoughts will jump all over the place and make her speech less clear while doing this because it is second nature to her.

Background: Christina comes from a fairly normal sized family with three siblings and two parents. She could tell you every single detail about every member of her family without even thinking about it because she knows them so well though her insanity means she does have trouble picking the right words at times. Being a triplet, she was of course closer to her sisters than her brother or parents and they understood her far better than anyone outside the family did. Unlike other her people, her family actually listened to her and took the time to understand that distinguishing right from wrong can be hard with the way her thoughts are.

At a young age it was quite visible that she had a few screws loose with the way she interacted with other children. For one thing, she always had to know the name of the child before she would speak to them, and for a second thing, she would speak to them in a creepy tone to see how easily they scared. If they were not good enough at putting on a brave face, she would simply return to ignoring them and play with her sisters who did not want to approach others. Each had a different reason though, Cassandra was antisocial and had a similar test for people that approached, she would act tough and seem mean and only befriend people that could see through it or put up with her enough to get to know her. Kera however was just shy and scared by them due to paranoia starting to manifest itself.

As Christina grew older, her sanity lessened greatly and she became so short tempered that a wrong look could set her off. She had also taken an interest the horror genre which turned out to be a bad thing when she stabbed a kid that set her off in the neck with scissors. Since she wasn’t looking though, she didn’t actually stab through any of the important parts within the neck and he was perfectly fine after a few days of recovery in a hospital. This lead to her being put in isolation and taught alone which made her quite anxious that something might happen to her sisters without her there.

As the years past, she was expelled and became more compelled to stay at home though it didn’t stop her going nuts when people bullied her sisters for being who they are. Twice this ended up being fatal for the people that did so thanks to her distracting her family with other things beforehand so she could do as she liked. She was sentenced to be sent to an insane asylum after the second time but, she knew they would never let her out because they would never have to.

This would have been a great time to test her escape abilities if she wasn't lazy. Instead of letting herself be dragged away to the asylum in the first place, she fled the courtroom. It didn't seem likely that she would get past the guards at the door but a few fast reactions stopped them grabbing her initially while luck had her going down the right streets to avoid them catching her. However, she knew luck wouldn't help her escape them forever if she didn't leave town at least and simply ran far away without an inkling as to where she was going or what she would do to survive.

Frequently she would venture in to towns and steal food that she had cravings for before continuing on her way and rarely ever returned to the same one. This kept her chances of being caught low, but it also kept the chances of being reunited with her family low as well. She eventually found her way into Castelia but she wasn't hungry at the time and was only looking around to discover an easy to steal from shop for later when she came upon an interesting poster. It seemed to have been created in a manner that it would seem appealing to a vast quantity of people at a first glance but then only draw in people with problems when actually read.

It gave out a signal to Christina that if she was to go then she would have to be cautious in case it was a trap of some kind but she needed money to stop being a thief and didn't pay any attention to what else it said besides the location she was to go to and the money offered. It wasn't like she was going to be alone after all because others would have surely seen it and ventured to the same location. There was always a chance of getting away after all even if her instincts told her to stay away.

Maybe she should have listened to her instincts more than her logic...

Other: Christina has a blood condition that causes her to have less platelets in her blood to close cuts and wounds which simply means she can die easily if she gets several cuts or bleeding wounds that aren't treated quickly to prevent blood loss. This is only made more annoying by the fact she has a severe allergy to elastiplast in band-aids.



The lack of specific details in the Background is both because I'm too lazy to pick specific ages and find town names, and because it makes it more exciting when she does reveal where she is originally from and the ages of certain events. I'll get to writing my Loyal when I wake up again, tell me if anything needs changed, k? K. *Goes to bed*

[Darkrow]

My Loyal shall be up this evening or tonight.

[Runi]

@Sam - Accepted~

Oh here's mine. Loyal will be added in a sec.


Name [Nickname if applicable] ; Arsen Anderson; Also known as Arse.
Gender ; Male.
Age ; 21.

Subject appearance ; --x--

Arsen appears to be an average Caucasian male, standing in at around 5’10 with a toned frame that makes it easy to see the definition in his arms and legs. Though he may appear to be on the skinny side with lanky limbs and long fingers, and lacking brawn, he actually weighs in heavier than he looks (though still normal for his height and age). Arsen has a lightly tanned complexion that is without any noticeable scars or bruises.

Arsen’s features tend to be angled; his chin is small and sharp, his nose acutely pointed and his jaw defined by sharp lines. His eyes, a dark stormy grey, are narrower than most and hold a sharp gaze. The only exception to his pointed visage are his rounded, high-up cheekbones that soften his overall image. However, it’s Arsen’s ashen hair, closer to smoke-grey in low light and sometimes, a bright white in the sun, that sets him apart. Being 100% fake, he goes to great lengths to dye his shoulder length hair, but cares little for the overall cut. A part of his bangs rest raggedly between his eyes, often tickling his nose, while the rest part to either side and brush his jaw line. The remainder of his tresses are fairly uniform in length, despite their choppy appearance.

A fan of skinny jeans and loose tank tops, Arsen doesn’t normally dress for the weather and can be seen in, generally, the same type of clothes all year round. He is a fan of baggy tuques and carries at least 3 with him everywhere he goes, as they are liable to blow away in the wind.
Gijinka appearance ; N/A

Personality ; Arsen is the type to go with the flow; he doesn’t appear to get surprised by much and never really sees a point in stating his opinion. A no-mess kind of guy, he prefers to stay out of conflicts and will go along with so as to not stir up any underlying feelings. A bit of a follower, he doesn’t care for making decisions and has no problem with others deciding things for him. With a straightforward way of thinking, Arsen only worries about how to complete the task on hand in the easiest way; it’s only better if he doesn’t have to do anything to achieve this. However, he’s anything but lazy and is, in fact, a very hard worker when properly motivated. It’s Arsen’s opportunistic nature that compels him to take easiest path that presents itself.

However, just because he would follow the decisions others have made for him, doesn’t mean that he will. Should Arsen see a faster, more convenient way, he has no issue with acting on his own accord. A practitioner of ‘do-first-ask-permission-later’, he has the bad habit of working without caring if others see his actions as rude or rebellious. Arsen also has the tendency to forgo the formality of asking for something before taking it, but everything he does is (normally) done without malicious intent. Arsen is often perceived by others as a stand-offish, though laid back, guy due to how he completes the tasks given to him; nevertheless, the pale haired boy remains completely oblivious to how and what others see or think of him.

Despite his apparent ‘easy-going’ attitude, it should be noted that Arsen is easily agitated by the smallest of things, be it someone bumping into him, talking about his hat or even staring at him for too long. Though he may be able to keep his temper in check and has, to this day, never lashed out at another, Arsen tends to be in a grumpy mood most of the time. Even when alone, he is often irritated by his surroundings and even his own actions. Luckily, Arsen bottles up most of his negative emotions and does his best to keep them from affecting others.

It should be noted that even though Arsen is constantly in a state of annoyance, he is more than willing to smile and tease others. In fact, whenever he gets the chance, it’s hard for the fair haired boy to resist irritating others. Strangely, the pale haired boy finds other’s annoyance amusing and will go out of his way to prod and taunt those around him. Nevertheless, he will only spend a few minutes, maximum, bothering others before moving on.

Even though within his group of friends, Arsen tends to be…sharper than the rest of them, a lot of concepts often fly over his ehad unless he applies himself. If he’s not paying attention, it’s easy for Arsen to not understand exactly what’s going on or what the game plan is. And then there are the complex theories that his grey matter simply rejects, but those instances are luckily, few and far in between. Fortunately, he has an adequate intelligence and can get through daily problems without stressing himself out. He just wouldn’t make a very good tutor because he’s not good with understanding theories or reiterating them for others.

Unfortunately for him, another concept that he just understand is humour. Arsen doesn’t really ‘get’ jokes of any kind, and he rarely finds any situation funny. It’s not that he’s too serious (in fact, it’s quite the opposite should he be teasing others.), he just doesn’t comprehend comedy. Ironically, he is unintentionally punny and often is left in the dust, confused when his friends and family laugh their heads off whenever he says something.

Arsen is surprisingly social, despite his irritability and lack of understanding humour. He’s always on his cell-phone, either texting or calling or IMing someone. If not in use, it’s practically glued to his hand. Not only does he like to keep regularly in contact with those he considers his friends, he always like to know what’s going on within his social circle. Should he not be ‘in-the-know’, he’ll easily remedy it with a quick phone call. However, he prefers to keep this information to himself. Not to blackmail, but to pacify. Viewed as a peacekeeper (though, one with not-so-pure ways) by others, he is often the one who breaks up conflicts, often by threatening to divulge dirt that he has on those involved. Fortunately, this is the only time in which he will use what he knows about others.

No matter who he is with, Arsen seems unable to rid himself of his blunt way of speaking. His elders are often appalled by the use of ‘you’ or ‘that guy’ instead of one’s proper name, his to-the-point questions and even shorter answers. Despite the soothing qualities of his baritone voice, his informal vocabulary has the tendency to offend others from time to time. Though his close friends have learned to overlook his informal speech and apparent inability to remedy it, they do take not of the fact that Arsen, apparently, was never taught the ‘keep your hands to yourself’ rule. He isn’t afraid to use force or engage in physical contact on others, whether he knows them or not. Though Arsen doesn’t mean to hurt anyone, he is unintentionally forceful and has no qualms about grabbing, pushing or pulling others in order to get them to do something. Despite his good intentions, this makes him horrible with animals, young children, and upper class citizens…

Additionally, Arsen is a bit of a perfectionist with everything he does, which contributes to his constant state of aggravation. If possible, everything should be in tip-top shape, and when things aren’t’ he tends to get just a little grumpy. The one consistency in Arsen’s rather…fascinating…personality is ability to lie on the spot. Without even blinking an eye, his skill of pulling a tall tale out of literally nowhere is unparalleled. Sure, it may not be the most convincing fib, but something is always better than nothing.

Background ; Arsen has lived in Castelia City all his life, a purebred city boy through and through. Though he may not have come from the most well-off family, there was never any struggle to put food on the table, despite the amount of mouths that needed to be fed. The eldest of the Anderson children, he and his 4 younger siblings often fought and squabbled with each other, but that was expected and was just another part of home life. Neither parent spent a lot of time at home, seeing as both worked long hours at their jobs.

Their mother was a standard office worker and though she earned a decent amount, she couldn’t spend a lot of time at home. Therefore, most of the housework was left to the children, seeing as their fashion-designer father had to make frequent business trips to Nimbasa City to market his clothing. Arsen was born a good 3 years before the others and already, at the tender age of 10, he took care of most of the household chores. His 2 younger sisters may have protested to him (brunette at the time) cooking, cleaning and helping them get dressed, but there was little that a 7 and a 6 year old could do at the time.

Arsen may not have been the best chef, nor did he have the best fashion sense (it should be noted that as his sisters aged, the soon took care of dressing the family, taking after their father in that sense), and it took a few tries in order to get the laundry done, but he did his best to take care of his siblings. Though his sisters helped around whenever the could, it was the two youngest twin boys, 5 year old menaces that they were, that often caused headaches within the Anderson household. Intent on making messes, playing practical jokes and wreaking havoc, there was never a peaceful day as long as the two boys were there.

Nevertheless, the family made dues with what they had and Arsen even found time in between schoolwork and taking care of the family to skateboard around town with youths of similar ages. An average kid, with an average (albeit large) family with an average life. Rarely travelling outside of the city seeing as his relatives lived far away in Sinnoh, where the cost of getting there alone was costly enough. The family was careful enough with their money so as not to run out, but allowed themselves to enjoy a few leisures from time to time.

However, the average element of Arsen’s life would soon fly out the door. His friends, though seemingly simpleminded and geared towards boarding around, had a darker side to them that they hid from Arsen (who had began dying his hair a few years ago). As the crime rate in Castelia grew in the less affluent areas, his skater companions were soon drawn into a life of crime. Lured by the growing Mafioso family that promised wealth and status if they joined, whenever Arsen turned away, his friend would run off to steal and commit other petty crimes.

At this point in his life, Arsen had enrolled in a community college and was juggling schooling and a job as a café barista, but still found some time to skate around town when not with his family. Unfortunately, Arsen would no longer remain oblivious to his friends actions after a particularly bad heist. He gone inside the store with his friends, assumingly there to snag a drink after a hot day in the park, before they locked down the store and held the owners at gunpoint with masks and all. They had fled soon after, but no before knocking the pale haired boy unconscious and setting him up to take the blame.

Forced into a holding cell, he was soon bailed out by his parents, but not before insisting that he pay them back as soon as he could. They, being understanding middle-class citizens who believed in their son’s innocence, agreed. But now, Arsen faced a dilmma. True, he had a decent job, but there was no way he could find the money in order to pay back his parents (he still retained his honour and held true to his word, after all). That is, until he stumbled upon a flyer the promised a large amount of compensation should he participate in a little experiment.

Figuring that this was his best shot, he accepted the proposition without a second though. After all, what could be worse than being accused of a crime you didn’t commit? Not much, in Arsen’s eyes…
Other ; Nopeadope.

Of course i'm accepted too...
Ffffffff in hindisight, that's a really long backstory for not trying to make a complicated one...

[MoogleSam]

Name [Nickname if applicable]: Gwen Garnet, nicknamed Princess by friends for how she dresses.

Gender: Female

Age: 18

Occupation: Not working, just finished high school (at least where I am she would have) and is taking a year to relax and work out what she wants to do with her life.

Social Class: Upper Class

Appearance: Gwen stands at 5‘6“ and weighs 114 lbs, making her underweight but only barely. Her eyes are naturally hazel but she wears coloured contacts to make them appear amber while her hair is naturally ginger but permanently dyed bright red and quite short. Due to naturally being ginger, she has several cute freckles on her cheeks and her skin is very sensitive to the sun as well as being incredibly pale.

To protect her skin she carries an amber parasol (an umbrella designed to protect against sun not rain) with a small curved handle which makes it easy to carry and often leans it on her shoulder to angle it to protect as much skin as possible. This can make her seem to give off a princess kind of air about her and she has one to match all of the dresses she likes to wear.

You are very unlikely to see her wearing anything except dresses despite the fact she has lots of different outfits she could wear as well. She generally wears a bright orange dress with a lot of layers like the dress a princess would wear though it cuts off at her knees and has two shoulders straps that criss cross at the back of her shoulders. There are several different colours of this kind of dress in her wardrobe as well as a few that look the exact same.

For footwear she wears orange high-heels and short white socks that barely reach her ankles. Again, she also has high-heels in different colours to match different outfits.

Personality: Gwen is a very bright person that doesn’t let anything keep her smile away no matter what the situation. If told something depressing then she will frown for a few moments then find a positive that makes her smile again or she’ll think of something happy. It is incredibly rare for her to not be smiling in some manner and would only really happen when she is afraid which again, is not often.

With everyone she meets, she will act bright and cheery as well as speaking with complete honesty towards them though she will not answer a question she doesn’t want to. If they act coldly to her then she will simply wish them a good day and move on as if she had never met them. This way she won’t be hurt if people talk about her using the things she mentions and she won’t end up being friends with people that would try to make her stop being a happy ball of sunshine.

Alone she is a very avid reader and can read all day if people don’t stop her. Her favourite book genre is horror because it is the one that involves the most surprises and twists though she does hate when horror monsters are cast in a new light as if they are the good guys. It can completely ruin their image when people do that and makes them far less scary and fun. While reading she can forget to eat at times which has led to her being underweight so she is currently taking a break from it.

There are a lot of things she loves about life, including sunshine, rain, rainbows, clouds, snow, books and generally all cheerful things within existence though she also does have a fascination with vampires. Of course due to this she really only dislikes garlic and when the sun burns her while feeling neutral towards sports and things that require her to put her parasol down simply because she can’t participate for long without burning.

Gwen strongly hates when other people are upset and will twist their words in a silly manner to cheer them up or tickle them if she has to just to make them smile. She always puts others before herself even at times when she shouldn’t just because she doesn’t want others to be hurt or upset or sad. Even when feeling unwell she would rather have everyone else well and happy than be well herself.

Though it seems odd, it actually annoys her when people call her ‘Princess’ but she won’t become angry if people call her it frequently because it is more of a minor annoyance than anything else. It also quite obvious that she is very unlikely for her to become angry with her positive outlook on life always bringing her back to being calm in a few seconds.

Background: Gwen is an only child and lives in a mansion with her mother and step-father in Castelia. Her father died when she was too young to remember him but he was a hard working man who left them plenty money to live off of. After a few years though, her mother remarried another man who happened to be an actor while her mother became a psychiatrist, meaning neither had much time for her.

For some people this would cause them to become bitter or spiteful but she had pencils and paper so instead she wrote stories to pass them time and to keep herself happy. Meanwhile, they tried to compensate for the time they didn’t spend with her by buying her lots of clothes, books, and many other things she didn’t want or ask for. This irritated her but she didn’t voice her irritation, it would just have upset them and she didn’t want to do so.

Despite being spoiled rotten, she always preferred taking part in activities that were often seen as boring such as reading, walking and sitting under trees in their garden while watching the clouds. Occasionally she would also watch the stars from the garden as well just because they were beautiful and not everyone would appreciate them. This caused her parents to worry that she might be secretly lonely and hiding it from them.

Just to be on the cautious side, they had a family friend catch her a few friendly Pokemon to let roam around the house to keep her company. They were hard to keep track of because they live in a mansion after all but Gwen took to counting them every night before she went to bed as a precaution. Occasionally she would take walks with them just to keep them fit and healthy and would leave food and water out for them every few hours to make sure they didn’t starve.

One day her parents realised that maybe she wouldn’t be happy with just that though and decided yet again to find her a companion without permission. At first they considered a Morph but they were more like the perfect slave and couldn’t speak a single word. Then the perfect kind of companion came on market, the Gijinka. They were similar to Morphs but contained their own mind and could talk, one of those would be perfect! Upon hearing that she was getting a Gijinka though, she wasn’t very pleased...

Other: Gwen has a condition that causes her blood to build up too much iron (I should know the name of it but I forgot @_@) so on Monday, Thursday and Sunday she donates blood to prevent it building up in dangerous quantities.

Not my best profile but meh, there's my Loyal. Tell me if I need to change anything. I'm hungry, I should have eaten 3 hours ago. *Wanders away to get food*

[Runi]

And i believe that i told you, but don't' expect too much. I'll be depending on a Pokemon randomizer because i'm lazy like that but i will look at personalities and such |D


Name [Nickname if applicable] ; Drayle Mirella.
Gender ; Male.
Age ; 19.
Occupation ; Underground crime boss working under the Mirella family – Mafia member. Part time University student.
Social Class ; Upper class.

Appearance ; Generally. Picture him have green eyes…

Drayle stands at an even 6 feet, not an inch more, with a thin frame that betrays the slight toning underneath. His shoulders, though normally slouched, set the stage for his lanky silhouette that is only accentuated by his flat torso and long, elegant neck. Though he may not be the most muscular person, he could easily hold his own in a physical fight (keyword being could) as his reflexes seem to be unnaturally good. His skin has an ivory sheen that is generally free of any faults, and though he may be a bit on the pale side, Drayle’s health is in tip-top shape.

He radiates a serous aura, his face having long outgrown its baby fat and childish past. Drayle has high rounded cheekbones and a long nose, though everything is offset by his soft, yet stern chin. Thin eyebrows frame his large emerald eyes, as do the long eyelashes that gain envious stares from the female populace from time to time. His vermillion pools have a sharp quality that if used in a glare, would be frighteningly effective. Keyword being if.

Drayle’s long black hair may seem unusual to others, especially considering its purple tinge in the light. but he rather likes it and will defend it if necessary. If left untied, the tresses reach his belly-button in length, but the multiple choppy layers results in multiple lengths. Nevertheless, Drayle prefers to tie his hair up into a high, loose ponytail that fails in keeping his hair uniform. Portions of hair often stick up in different directions even though they’re tied up, and the front bangs fare no better. They part in the middle, hanging shaggily around his cheeks, while a few shorter strands linger between his eyes.

Drayle tends to wear dark clothing, which makes his barely touched skinn seem garishly white. His go-to pair of pants is a pair of black slacks that accentuate his slim frame, though should the weather heat up, he is no stranger to rolled-up white pants or even pencil cut cargos. However, he refuses to wear sweatpants, which is probably for the better seeing as he would probably be dwarfed by the garment. Even though he’s not a fan of jeans as he thinks it makes him look unprofessional, he’ll wear it if he must.

His shirts tend to vary in earth toned colours, however, since most of them tend to show his belly button, they look more like wraps than anything else. Drayle prefers T-shirts over long sleeved shirts and tank tops, but all of his upper-wear possess a similar inability to cover up his torso properly, mainly because of his long upper-body and their near skin-tight quality. Within his house, he has no problem lounging around in these shirts, but should he need to step outside, he likes to throw on a jacket of some sort. Recently, he has taken to donning a simple, unbuttoned white dress shirt to give him a collar and a black simple black jacket that sharpens his soft features. Most of these jackets are tailored to fit him nicely and have a variety of designs to add a little colour to his clothing (seeing as the dress shoes that he normally sports are black as well). At the moment, Drayle has taken a fondness to the one with a large, embroidered pink peony over his left breast.

Personality ; Drayle doesn’t exactly have the strongest personality, to say the least. Though many would assume that he have a persona to mach his stony looks, he is surprisingly well mannered and agrees with mostly anything. He dislikes arguments and does his best to placate others should they become aggravated, mainly because a disagreement between parties makes him uneasy. Rather than being afraid of being caught in the crossfire or even turning the line of fire onto himself, he just doesn’t like the thought of a person being angry at another.

Drayle is also not the type to get aggravated at others, because in his opinion there is a perfectly logical reason for someone to do something. He just doesn’t know it and doesn’t press others for details out of both respect for others and a personal distaste for delving into other’s businesses. In return, Drayle doesn’t like people asking about his actions and background, and he’ll do his best to try to shy away from any inquiries about his past and change the topic.

Somewhat of a pushover, although that’s putting it nicely, he has trouble asserting whatever he wants and isn’t a forceful person. A failure at trying to persuade others to do what he wants them to do, all he can hope is that if he smiles nicely enough at them, they’ll do as he asked. His words, even if he does believe in them, lack passion and Drayle isn’t’ really the type to spark enthusiasm from others. More often than not, he is overshadowed by those that are around him, be they affluent crime bosses, middle-classed businessmen or even small children.

He has difficulties making up his mind and is hesitant in making his decisions. However, Drayle will not vocalize his indecisiveness, leaving him to internally conflict about what decision to make. Whenever he does come to a conclusion, he then spends more time trying to convince himself that it was the right choice to choose. It then comes to no surprise that Drayle is more used to and more comfortable with others dictating things for him. Well, as long as he agrees with it; if he doesn’t end up agreeing or even understanding the conclusion made, Drayle will be shocked and will remain so for a significant period of time.

Drayle has the unfortunate habit of rambling, should you get him talking for long enough. However, this rarely happens as he gets nervous around others and will avoid questions like the plague. He has trouble connecting with those who he has not met, giving off a nervous silence whenever he meets someone new. Though Drayle tries his best to be social, it’s difficult for him not to be awkward and for him to even strike up a proper conversation. He’s not accustomed to smiling, so he doesn’t do it much, nor does he laugh in a particularly wholehearted manner. Nevertheless, should he become comfortable with another person, he will relax significantly; alas, this is an uncommon turn of events and he appears to be doomed to a lifetime of social awkwardness.

Drayle is perceptive, but has trouble stating what he sees, mainly due to inability to speak up and grow a backbone to stand up for his opinion. Whenever he’s alone, he allows himself to think and ponder about events. Drayle sees details rather than the whole picture, which means that he’ll have trouble grasping a concept, but when he finally does, it’s usually with a clearer understanding than others. This gives him an edge over those who are smarter than him seeing as he has an average intelligence.

Strangely enough, the dark haired boy is also possessive; he dislikes sharing anything that belongs to him. Additionally, to those that he has opened up to, he doesn’t approve of them going off on their own unless he tells them too. This selfish side of him extends even to objects that belong to the city; for example, the phone booth outside of his house across the street is his phonebooth, and he will readily shoot glares at anyone who dares use it.

However, should he be confronted about this behaviour, he will quickly deny it and become flustered, although with a small pout or too. Drayle will begin to ramble as well, which also happens when he becomes embarrassed, uncomfortable or mentally scared; the only way to get him to stop talking is a solid hit against the head.

Background ; Drayle comes from a family that has always been surrounded by wealth, living on the better side of Nimbasa City with similar well-off families. To outsiders, the Mirella family seems like your standard upper class household, with multiple properties, a large amount of relatives and an even greater amount of servants. They have never known a day of going hungry and their large amount of wealth is attributed to a hard-earned family fortune that their father carefully monitors and even increases by investing in stocks (what else?).

However, it should be noted that things aren’t always what they seem, and the Mirella’s certainly fit the bill here. Drayle’s father, though a large, imposing-yet-caring family man, was not simply a simpleton that spent their days investing in stocks; no, instead, he was the lord of underground crime within the Unova region. Of course, the type of crime that he dealt with didn’t’ involve Pokémon; we’re talking about good old fashioned burglary, assassinations and murder. The closest to a Mafia boss that the Pokémon world has ever had, the man situated his roots in the city where it is easiest to draw criminals; in the heart of a city fuelled by entertainment.

Drayle was one of three, meaning that he was born a triplet with his two brothers within the lush housing of their house. Raised and served on by menservants within Nimbasa, he eventually learned the ways of the Mafia all the while attending the nearby school and being tutored in multiple areas. Not only were they educated on how to handle the crime life within the city, they were also taught etiquette, grace, how to improve their physical health and many more subjects.

His two bothers, who were ironically a few minutes behind him in the womb, showed more interest in their father’s undercover work than Drayle could ever hope to. Senter had a dominating an charismatic personally, while Mercer was analytic and sadistic. Even though the three of them were identical and were never seen without another in their younger years, the differences between them were evident.

Even though their mother, a baker until she married the Mafia boss, doted on Mercer and Senter more than Drayle it was their father that showed an interest in the elder triplet despite his unimpressive personality. He was the one who showed the young boy the inner working of the family, how to handle those around him and even introduce him to affairs in other cities that they governed over. However, Drayle’s brothers never held this fact against him, as they often kept him around as a sort of self-confidence booster for the two.

Drayle and his brothers lived relatively normal lives, as any secret Mafia boss son could, seeing as they attended school, high class functions and the occasional social gathering with other children their age. When they hit 16, it was no surprise that Senter would be their father’s right hand man while Mercer, the left. Drayle wasn’t very put out, but it was later revealed to the teen that he would move to Castelia City and handle the city’s underground crime. He and his brothers were surprised at the decision, but made no fuss as the boy was sent southwards to live on his own.

However, it soon became apparent that even though Drayle was separated from his family, life was strikingly similar as it was back in Nimbasa. He lived in a large, spacious mansion with many servants to cater all of his needs. Many of his father’s men had been sent with Drayle to carry out his dirty work because the day he went out and threatened gangsters was the day that Grumpigs grew wings and flew. Drayle still dabbled with school and seemed like the average teenager even after he graduated. In order to keep the less-than-pleasant matters that Drayle dealt with a secret, he decided to enrol in university and study business (albeit casually; it wasn’t like he was going to use it legitimately in the future…).

Drayle still kept in constant contact with his family back at home and though they found that he was doing fine on his own, his family fretted that he felt lonely and decided to purchase a Gijinka for him in order to keep him company. Of course, he hasn’t really been told of this detail yet…
Other ; Uh, he knows how to handle weapons, but doesn’t’ really bother carrying them with him. He has a pretty good fashion sense. Also, a bodyguard will be following him at all times, though out of sight.

Name [Nickname if applicable]; Alma Morgan (Cookie to who can identify the two references in that name. Muffin if you identify one. *shot*)
Gender; Female
Age; 9
Occupation; Child
Social Class; Upper

Appearance; Alma is tiny; even for her age. She stands at a mere 3'2" and weighs 51 pounds, which makes her a bit round despite not being overweight. She has straight jet black hair that reaches her waist which also covers her entire forehead. Her brown eyes seem almost black as well and despite looking almost soulless, you can see from her mannerisms and her way of thinking that she is anything but soulless. She's missing her left front tooth, which helps make a cute childish grin. She also has round pink cheeks that she hates having pinched. Furthermore, she sometimes wears one of her mask on top of her head or even a wig.

For upper wear, Alma (well, the maid who takes care of her and her room, really) prefers keeping it simple and pretty, usually wearing a long sleeved black shirt with white lace on the end of the sleeves. She also tends to wear a nice white necklace with a small cross made of actual silver as the medallion. Around both her wrists are very expensive bracelets which she never removes.

For lower wear, she wears black stockings with a floral pattern under a black skirt held around her small waist by a simple brown leather belt with a square buckle. While inside the house, she never wears any type of footwear (not counting the stockings), but when going outside she puts on her black sneakers.

Personality; Little Alma is very lively and cheerful at almost all times. Her adorable grin is often seen and she laughs at little, simple things, often clapping at the same time. She runs a lot whenever she can and her young mind seems to only know one thing at times: play, play, play and play. She's very creative and ends up inventing weird yet fun games all on her own most of the time. Despite being fairly spoiled, which is natural considering her parents' wealth, she was taught the right things by her parents and the two maids and, as such, is a very nice little girl who is almost completely devoid of any ill will and egotism. However, like any normal person, she does have her grumpy days, which make her seem a bit meaner.

She rarely complains about things. Though she does express disappointment when things can't go her way, she will ask why it can't work out the way she wants it to and will understand why very quickly nine times out of ten. After all, she's quite bright for a nine year old; not a genius, of course, but enough to have a fairly intelligent conversation about select subjects with adults. She even ends up teaching things to the two maids in her house sometimes!

When she wants to, Alma can be quite the rebel. Instead of listening to the maids, sometimes she'll just go play outside, making up fantastic stories as she runs around and has fun. Once again, when she gets caught, she only shows disappointment for a little bit before cheering up and willingly doing what they tell her to do. She understands that she's not the maids' boss (well, technically she is, but she doesn't abuse her power and asks nicely instead of ordering them around, except for some things when on her grumpy day) and instead tries to make their job and lives in general better since she knows that being a maid isn't a very thrilling job in the first place. She tends to follow The Golden Rule, which is "One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself", for the most part.

The little girl tends to get scared by strangers until she gets to know them. As a result, the maids tend to get clung to by her until she gets used to the stranger. If she does not like said stranger though, she'll repeatedly ask the maids if they can go away, which shows that she can get impatient. She also considers the two maids as two additional mothers and parental figures as a whole. As a show of affection, she tends to call them the both of them "Mommy" while she calls her father and her mother "Father" and "Mother", respectively. She is also very helpful and generous with anyone she likes.

When she gets bored, she tends to mess a bit with the maids, playing innocent pranks on them. Since they are both kind-hearted and playful, they often stop what they are doing to play with her for a bit. While she never seems to grow annoyed and angered on normal days, this can happen if someone insults her parents, maids included, or makes fun of her lisp. She also likes to act like she's a little princess to fool people, her grin being the lie indicator.

Alma does have one passion: acting. In her room, she has two large chests, one filled with masks and wigs and one filled with costumes. She likes trying them on and wear them inside the house for fun. The masksand wigs, in particular, are her most prized possessions, so being allowed to even touch them without her permission is a huge sign of trust. She's very protective of them. Furthermore, her room is filled with plush toys of all kinds. She also likes singing and is fairly good at it. In her spare time, she likes reading books of any kind.

Since she has never been in real contact with any pokémon, she's actually terrified of them and prefers staying far, far away from them. Even an innocent little Cleffa scares her, even if she finds it adorable. Ironically, most of her plush toys are actually pokémon ones. Alma is also an eccentric little girls who loves trying new things, even if it looks dangerous or disgusting, in the case of food. She, however, does not know her house's layout by heart, so she tends to get lost.

Her sadness, while rare, is often intense, resulting in her crying and being inconsolable for a long while. She often stays completely silent after she's done crying, which shows clearly that she's not feeling well since she talks a lot and is quite the chatterbox. After she's done crying, she's easy to cheer up, however.

Background; Daughter of two extremely wealthy adults from Castelia who, despite their wealth, are good parents, Alma has gotten a very good childhood so far, save for some minor things. She got a fair amount of presents and her parents even hired a second maid (they already had one) so they could both do different jobs and lessen the other's workload, seeing as how Alma's house is huge. Being busy adults, her parents were and still are rarely home at the same time, if they even are home. As a result, the maids bonded with the little girl and over the years they have become as important as parents for her. The older maid, Caroline (34 years old), is the one who was hired the most recently and is, therefore, the more clueless one since this is her first time as a maid. The other one, Amitia (29 years old), has been with the Morgan family for almost a decade now, having replaced their former maid, who was well over 50 years old.

Alma has never gone to school, being homeschooled by Caroline, who is sometimes helped by Amitia. The two servants are exceptional teachers, seeing as how almost everything they taught the small girl was understood almost immediately. However, her mother, the real one, was the one who taught her how to talk while her father taught her how to walk. It was when she reached her third birthday that Amitia bought her a few dozen masks (Caroline and Amitia were handsomely paid and live in the same house as Alma). She wore it every day and eventually asked for more masks and even wigs, which soon grew into asking for whole costumes. As one might expect, Halloween has since become her favorite holiday. Not for the candy, but because she can dress up and have fun in the neighborhood.

When she turned five, she also asked for plush toys, liking the few she had. Over the next four years, her collections grew very large and plentiful. The maids, usually Caroline, are the ones who choose what she will wear for the day, but she insists on getting dressed up by herself. They are also the ones who decide what she eats as to control her weight since they know she would grow fat if she ate what she wanted.

At the age of six, she had lost her first "baby" tooth and when it had grown back as an "adult" tooth, she tumbled down the stairs that lead to her room (which is upstairs) and her tooth popped out, which is why she already has a missing tooth. She refused to get a new one for the time being, so her parents complied with her choice. As of now, her grin seduces most adults.

Recently, her parents and the maids have decided that she needed a friend, seeing as how she had none if Caroline and Amitia didn't count. Coincidentally, that day Caroline saw an ad about a new kind of servant: Gijinkas, who were similar to the mute Morphs (which was the main reason they didn't want one), but could actually talk! It was then decided that Alma would wake up one day and learn that she now had her own Gijinka.

Other; Alma has a lisp which causes her to pronounce "s" sounds as "th" sounds at times. Sometimes she also mispronounces words; when she notices she corrects herself.

@Dark - Accepted~
Oh and is Alma from like...D.Gray Man? |D

Oh, and while i was brushing my teeth, i was thinking a bit about the pokemon that everybody will be getting.
So, to i guess get your thinking caps prepared (and to kind of amuse Arc because he seems to like this), i'd like to ask you guys to think about what pokemon would suit other's Subjects, because i don't trust my own judgement that much. Or well like...yeah.

So suggest away! The only thing is that you can't suggest DNA for your own Subject. And then everybody can choose which pokemon they want (the one i chose or any suggested one).
Of course, i have the right to reject any suggestion...

And if you don't get this, ask some questions...

But yeah! Have some (slightly confusing) fun! 8D

[MoogleSam]

Maria: Plusle or Minun because they are cheerful, friendly and optimistic, Totodile because they always seem cheerful to me.

Sly: Absol for lonerish nature, Chansey for sympathetic and caring nature, Leafeon for general pacifist-like nature.

Chris: Absol for level-headedness, Chatot for talkativeness and because he has a large interest in music.

Jax: Absol for being solitary, Spearow or Fearow for hating/disliking things that remind him of his old friends.

Felix: Charizard seems to jump out at me here for no real reason, though again, Absol could work with his nature of being a loner, Jolteon because it becomes sad quickly.

Arsen: Vigoroth for being easy to irritate, Cranidos because I imagine him having a hard skull for no real reason.

Juliet: Buneary for hat, Pikachu for rodent-like personality (rodents are shy and scared by people), Rattata for the same reason as Pikachu, Clefairy for shyness, Clefable for the same reason as Clefable. Probably more but can't think of more currently.



Now, I'd like to point out that I noticed these sentences in Felix's profile when I actually read through it:

"He challenges his mind by doing math and science projects assigned by himself. He uses 15% of his brain because of all his training. He has tried to learn telekinesis because he wants to be the smartest in the world. He can move a can or a couple of coins, small things, but only a few feet."

I instantly realised three things:

a) He can't use 15% of his brain, people use all parts of their brain at different times. The 'fact' people only use 10% is actually a thing called a MYTH.

b) Even if the 10% thing was true, it would make absolutely no sense for Maths and Science projects to allow him to use more of his brain.

c) Even if the 10% thing was true AND the projects allowed him to use more of his brain, it wouldn't give him any telekinesis abilities at all because that would be illogical, and it would mean that super geniuses should have telekinesis which they do not.

[Kaxanar]

Name [Nickname if applicable]: Mikayla Siver
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Subject Appearance: Mikayla's hair falls to the middle of her back in a sleek ebony curtain. A dark blue headband keeps the main body of her hair back while leaving her bangs free to frame her face. She stands at 5'9 and weighs approximately 130 pounds. There isn't a single ounce of excess fat on her anywhere; her body consists almost entirely of wiry muscle, giving her an athletic build. She isn't overly muscled, however, and possesses enough curves to satisfy a good portion of the opposite sex. Long, slender legs, almond-shaped eyes the color of honey, and a Mediterranean skin tone only serve to heighten that appeal. Much to her pleasure, any attraction that sparks at first glance is generally smothered when one notices the dangerous gleam in her honeyed eyes; that gleam says she is a predator in human skin, and for your sake, you'd best tread carefully.

As far as clothing goes, less is more for Mikayla. She wears a black fishnet tanktop that reaches down to her navel. Over that is a slightly shorter sleeveless black top which is fastened by thin straps tied around her neck. The rear of the outer shirt is cut very low, leaving much of her back exposed save for the fishnet layer beneath. For lower wear she has a matching skirt with a ragged bottom hem, and blue knee-high boots. To complete her outfit, she has a pair of blue- and yellow-striped gloves which cover her forearms, extending to just above her elbows. All of her clothing is slim-fitting but comfortable, accentuating her curves in all the right places while still granting her ease of movement.

Gijinka Appearance: Nothing to see here, move along...

Personality: Upon meeting Mikayla, many people get the impression that she's a cold person. They wouldn't be wrong, exactly, but she also has a rather large heart. She simply protects it better than most. Past experience has been a harsh teacher, but she is nothing if not a quick study. She had to be in order to survive on her own for so long. Even if she learned nothing else, she kept one lesson close to her heart: in a time when money makes the world go round and everybody's looking out for number one, trusting the wrong person can be deadly. As such, she greets all strangers with suspicion if not outright aggression, especially those that stick their noses in her business or invade her personal space.

That doesn't mean Mikayla goes out of her way to cause trouble, though - most of the time. She has more than enough on her plate as it is, so why add to her burden when she doesn't need to? That's just a waste of energy that could be better used for more important things. Should she ever find her safety in jeopardy, however, she won't hesitate to eliminate the threat no matter what (or who) it might be. It's not a matter of right and wrong to her, more like loss and gain; she won't think twice about doing something, even if it's illegal, so long as it benefits her in the end and she can get away with it.

The only time Mikayla's softer side shows is when she comes across a child on the street. Despite her typically hostile or aloof demeanor, she has an exceptional maternal instinct. Maybe it's because she knows what it's like to be all alone with nobody to rely on, and has seen what happens to the ones who can't even rely on their own strength for safety. Maybe it's because she likes feeling needed, having some purpose in life. Or maybe, just maybe, she really does need someone to care for and to care about her despite how adamantly she insists otherwise. Whatever the reason is, Mikayla simply can't turn a blind eye to a child in need. On more than one occasion she has put herself in harm's way to protect a kid on the street, and she wouldn't hesistate to do it again.

Mikayla's disposition does a complete 180 when she's in the presence of a child or anyone she views as such (either from their stature or mannerisms). Whereas before she would lash out at the slightest provocation, she suddenly becomes calm and gentle, if still somewhat gruff. On the other hand anyone foolish enough to harm a child in her presence - especially one to whom she's offered her protection - will instantly become her enemy. Her enemies have a bad habit of turning up dead in a back alley somewhere, if they turn up at all.

Background: Born to an alcoholic father and an enabling mother in Sandgem Town, Mikayla is an only child. Mrs. Siver frequently told 'Kay' that she was pretty enough to be a model or a movie star, often peering through a swollen eye as she spoke. Mr. Siver never missed a chance to criticize his daughter or make a joke at her expense when his drinking buddies were over. When they were alone he mostly ignored her, except when he beat her, which was often. Mikayla covered the evidence of his abuse before going to school, and brushed off her teacher's concern with the excuse that she'd walked into a door or fell down the stairs on the rare occasion a bruise couldn't be hidden.

One night shortly before her tenth birthday, Mikayla woke up to an odd thumping sound heading down the stairs. After deciding that she wasn't still dreaming, the young girl silently made her way to the door and opened it just enough to stick her head out. What she saw when she peeked into the hallway was her drunken father dragging his wife down the stairs by her ankles. The thumps were made as Mrs. Siver's head hit each step on the way down. Mikayla's blood ran cold and her eyes widened in shock and horror. A second later she had to clap her hands over her mouth to smother the scream building in her throat.

In that moment, Mikayla knew two things: first, her father had finally struck his wife one too many times, and secondly, she would suffer the same fate if he happened to turn around and see her watching. That last thought broke her paralysis and she jerked backward as though stung. Mikayla stood stock still in the middle of her dark bedroom with her heart hammering in her chest as she listened to her father's progress through the house. As soon as she heard the engine of his rusty pickup cough to life, she grabbed her backpack from the corner of the room and dumped her school books onto the floor. She shoved as many articles of clothing as she could fit inside (which, admittedly, wasn't much), jammed her sneakers on, and sprinted away from her so-called home with tears blurring her vision. She ended up in an alley in Jubilife City, which became her new home for the next seven years. Scavenging food from the dumpsters behind restaurants, sleeping under a blanket of newspapers, and begging for money on street corners became routine for her. The idea of stealing being wrong soon lost its meaning when panhandling didn't net her enough cash to survive.

When she was seventeen, a smart-mouthed kid by the name of Benjamin came into her life. He had mouthed off to the wrong homeless man, and was running for his life when he turned into Mikayla's dead-end alley and crashed into her. She took one look at the young boy's terrified face, and any annoyance she'd felt when he collided with her instantly melted away. She knew that expression; she'd seen it plenty of times when she had been around his age, reflected back at her in a dirty puddle or her father's eyes. Something changed in Mikayla then, and her expression hardened as she moved in front of Benji and pulled a switchblade from the pocket of her jeans. Following the incident she had to find a new place to stay, but that was all right. Benji went with her.

Mikayla spent the next four years or so doing much the same as she'd done the last seven, though there were a few notable differences. During that time she moved to another part of the city with Benji, found a homeless shelter to spend the nights in, and helped a few more kids out of trouble, two of whom decided to join her and Benji afterward. The former was a timid little thing named Sara who had somehow managed to anger the local wild Meowth population and their Persian leader. The latter was Kenny, who seemed almost as shy as Sara until he had some food and company to cheer him up. Five months later Kenny got caught picking pockets and was sent to an orphanage, but Sara was more careful.

The best thing to happen during that time by far, however, came in the form of a crumpled lottery ticket Mikayla found in the gutter. She was about to toss it away, but thought better of it at the last second and stuffed it into her pocket instead. Her decision proved to be a good one later that evening when she watched the lottery drawing on a television in the front window of an eletronics store. She could only stare at the screen in stunned silence until Benji let out a whoop and together with Sara practically tackled her to the ground in excitement. Once she'd regained her composure (and pried Benji and Sara off of her legs), she headed straight for the convenience store which sold the ticket.

The ticket didn't make Mikayla a millionare, but it did turn life around for her and the kids. The first thing she did was find a small two-bedroom apartment and fill it with the standard furnishings, as well as food and clothing for the three of them. She started job hunting the next day and eventually managed to find work as a dancer/waitress at a nightclub. All but the last hundred dollars or so of her winnings went to taking the kids for physicals and vaccinations so they could be enrolled in school. Her life might have gotten screwed up but she sure as heck wasn't going to let the same happen to them, and that meant a proper education was in order. Then came the hardest part: legally adopting Benji and Sara. After a painfully long process it was finally official. Benjamin Morgan-Siver and Sara Cooke-Siver were hers, and she was theirs.

Life seemed perfect for a while, but nothing good ever lasts forever. Mikayla finally snapped after having her rear end grabbed by one too many inebriated patrons as she made her way around the tables at the club, and was fired for beating the crap out of the latest man to do so. She immediately started searching for another job, but the weeks went by without any luck. Weeks stretched into months, and what little money she had in the bank swiftly disappeared. For the first time in a while, Mikayla found herself seriously considering mugging someone as she was walking down the street. She would have done it too, had a certain flyer not caught her attention. She didn't particularly care for the idea of being a subject, but soon decided to take part when she saw how much money was being offered. Benji and Sara didn't want her to go, but they were going to end up on the streets again if she couldn't pay rent for the month. She was going and the old lady in the next apartment was going to watch them while she was gone, and she was sorry but there was nothing she could do about it.

"You're not really leaving us, are you?" Sara asked.

"I'll be back in a week. Two at the most."

Benji crossed his arms and scowled. "I don't like this..."

Mikayla should have listened to him.

[Delete This User...]

I didn't really guess myself simply because I enjoyed it Runi, but more because I was simply bored at the time, that's all XD

Anyway, here's my collection of stabs in the dark. It's surprising quite how many characters are emotionally crippled one way or another in this RP, it's almost like a collection of the socially inept/disturbed...

Gijinka Guesstimation

Since Maria appears to quite simply be a fun-loving, talkative young girl, I think I’ve got no other choice to go with Chatot. Also, she wears a headband, and we all know that headband = Chatot… doesn’t it?

As for Syl, well, she’s both reclusive and friendly, very much like Clefairy, and quite a few grass-type Pokemon. Given her already pasty skin, I imagine she’d make quite an effective Clefairy/Clefable Gijinka actually, what with her skin tone already being a little closer to theirs than most people.

Jax… an athletic kid who’s currently depressed and despises his parents… erm, this is a hard one for me. If he was his old eccentric self, I would have just named any electric-type off of the top of my head, but now I just don’t have a clue :/

Felix is… telekinetic? Wait, what? Well, from the rest of his personality (and intelligence), he’d obviously suit some kind of Psychic type Pokémon (other than the Slowpoke line… or Jynx…), but I’m not sure that I like the idea of him being telekinetic before the whole ‘Gijinkafication’ process.

E.C. = Sabeleye (or however it’s spelled). Ghost + Dark = the ultimate evil concoction

Now then, Mr Arse. Usually easy going, but can be agitated quite easily if the right buttons are pressed? That just screams Sceptile to me.

Right then, Juliet. Well Buneary/Lopunny are the obvious candidates, but if I was forced to pick something else, I’d probably find myself going with one of the Rodent Pokémon, as Sam mentioned. I'd most probably go with Pikachu due to the fact it has long enough ears for Juliet to grab onto like she does with her hat, which would be absolutely adorable.

Mikayla’s simply either a Mightyena or a Houndoom to me, no other way to put it :/

EDIT: Totally didn't see the "you can't suggest for your own Gijinka" part in Runi's last post. Forget anything you saw regarding Chris here...

Okay, forget what I said about putting up my second profile. Unfortunately something has come up, so I won't be able to take part in this rp. That said, I still think this is an awesome rp and will likely be stalking it from the shadows now and then. Eheheh... Anyway... I'm very sorry for wasting your time, Runi, and everyone else as well. Hopefully the next time I see one of your rp's I'll actually be able to participate.

EDIT: Oh, and before I forget... I am perfectly okay other than not being able to kick this stubborn cold of mine, Arcy. You don't need to worry about anything, least of all me. :P

asdfasdfasdf i think this calls for a collective DAWWWWWW :C moment...

And don't say that! You didn't waste our time and we'll be glad to have you lurk around! Be sure to leave a post or two in this thread so that we know you're still here <:

Hope that everything works out for you and that we can RP together soon ~

[Kaxanar]

Really? A collective DAWWWWWW over little old me? I feel special and a little embarrassed now. Haha, glad I didn't bug you. Good luck with your rp.

Oh and for the record, Arsen's nickname made me lol. It's probably a good thing that Jackie won't be around to meet him, because she'd start referring to him as 'butthead' after hearing that little gem. XD

And now I really must be off. See ya later.

*Massive Jaw Drop* Collective DAWWWWWWWWWWWWW :C moment indeed

As Runi said though FA, you weren't wasting anyone's time at all. When things start to clear up though, please let us know, I don't really want to go starting the RP I'm working on if you're not able to join it (for reasons you know). Also, if it was alright with Runi of course, maybe you could join this when everything clears up for you? I really would like to see 'butthead' get christened with his new name XD

Oh, and just for the record FA, I'm still gonna worry, 'cause you just told me you can't get rid of your cold :P

EDIT: Edited my last post regarding my Gijinka suggestions. Sorry, I didn't read the "no suggesting your own Gijinka" bit. Bah, Stupid Arcy was stupid

I second Arc! I think Arsen should be christened Butthead from this moment on in your memory |D
And i like that suggestion, actually! We could probably sort something out, or maybe you can swap around with Pika if you can come back when he comes back from boot camp !

Um, but ok. Onto business. So you guys went and wrote in depth analysis and such. I was just going to say the pokemon's name but now i have to elaborate.../shotforbeing lazy
Alright. Now, for the list of pokemon:

• Maria Everheart – Munchlax. Munchlaxs have a hearty appetite, and Maria has a sweet tooth. I can easily see this translating. Additionally, Munchlaxs are rather energetic and I think it’s a good match !
• Sylfaen / Syl – Mareep. They don’t like to fight and are based on sheep, which are easily frightened. Sheep and Mareep are comforting to sleep on. So is Syl. Um and electrical shocks can hurt xox
  Christopher / Chris Flynn – Riolu. Or Lucario. Either one, though I guess the latter would be more appropriate when considering the aforementioned dexterity needed to do sports and play the guitar. They’re based on canines, which just screams loyalty, but at the same time, they aren’t ruled by their emotions seeing as they deal with aura all the time.
• Jax – Mankey. I personally don’t think that Jax is mature enough to be a Primape (both physically and mentally) and the angry persona that Mankey has seems to fit Jax pretty well. I also checked in Bulbapedia and they say that “If Mankey looses sight of its colony, it becomes infuriated by its loneliness.” Colony = friends…get it? 8D
• Felix Life – Elgyem. Felix seems misunderstood and would definitely be a psychic type (in hindsight, I should have asked for you to remove the telepathy thing). Based on its appearance in the Anime, Elgyem seems to fit that…
• Christina Russel – Sableye. All of the other pokemon didn’t really fit because she isn’t truly ‘evil’ but at the same time she isn’t an innocent, just misunderstood. Well, in that case, Absol could be a possibility as well. But yours was hard Sam…sorry! :C
• Arsen Anderson – Nidoking would fit for the anger, but they’re too violent for my liking. Zorua fit the teasing party, but Arsen it’s one for like hiding and stuff. He’s more straightforward. Ok, I have no idea what Arsen would be. Help plox!
• Juliet Daniels – Cyndaquil. Mainly because even though Buneary would fit her appearance wise (what with that adorable little hat), Buneary are actually very happy and energetic Pokémon from what I gather. Cyndaquils tend to be unsure and timid and are just gosh darn cute.

Alright. So I’ll put the list of suggestions in the 3rd post. Your Pokémon choice is a first come first serve thing, and you can only choose from the list. The suggestion I made will be like, italicized or something.
And argg Felix and Christina took so long…and I can’t think of Pokémon for my own characters. Ever. I would love if you guys could suggest some…

Oh, and Sam; i'm going to have to nix some of your suggestions because i can't have fully evolved pokemon (depending on level and such) being injected. Sowwwweeeee <3

I have to leave the house for a bit, so i'll have the topic up tonight. Sorry for the wait...i'll make it up by extending the meet-and-greet time.
I'm really sorry guys.

I find your guess for Christina interesting Blackie, it was one I actually didn't think of but it does fit with their manner of making jerky, creepy movements which she does on purpose to see how easily scared someone is. XD

And because I seem to be ignored so easily these days, I will again point out that I stated part of Felix's personality makes no sense below the suggestions I offered. Seriously, I even made it in to points as to why it is impossible and it seems to have been completely ignored.

Swapping with Pika would probably actually be a better solution than having Pika's Gijinka swap with someone else's, in my opinion anyway. Considering just how much money the loyals (or their parents) would have spent to acquire these Gijinkas, they're most probably not going to swap theirs without good reason.

Huh, Lucario. I never thought about that, probably because I'm not really a big fan of Mr Aura Emo from the movie . You know what, if nothing else comes up tomorrow which I think is a better fit (which most likely won't be the case), I'll go ahead and have Chris go ahead and take the Aura hound's DNA. Until then, I think I'll just get a rough idea of Lucario Chris in my head... which I've just realised is actually pretty difficult for me. Aside from that jaggy blue tail, I'm not too sure about which asthetical traits would carry over To spikey hands and chest, or not to spikey hands and chest. That is the question... Regardless, what I do know is that all of a sudden, Chris is gonna end up suddenly getting the urge to tie his hair back so that it's out of the way (Shikamaru-esque pineapple bob, anyone?).

Actually, just to clear things up Runi. Should I go for the Lucario DNA, would Chris actually inherit Aura abilities, and to what extent? I mean, in the film, if I remember right, Lucario sees everything in a rather strange manner, mainly seeing the colours of people's aura while everything else isn't quite grey-scale, but the colours aren't particularly bold either. Would his change in visual perception be altered that much? Or is that more something I get to decide for myself? I've got to admit, the thought of Chris being able to see with his eyes closed does have me at least a little interested, that'd be bound to lead to some sleepless nights...

Oh, and just for the record, here's a 'quick' sample and a 'not so quick' sample (don't worry, it's not actually 42 minutes long, just 24) of the kind of music Chris is actually interested in (and, for the matter of fact, is actually capable of/more likely to play). I intended to leave a sample in his profile, but doing so seemed to escaped my memory

Don't worry Sam, I'm pretty sure you're not being ignored, I think people are just waiting for Fuji to reply rather than have anyone else speak on his/her behalf. I think most people by now have realised that it simply makes no sense, they're just waiting for Fuji to reply back, is all

Well, it was either Sabeleye or Bannette, since I'm pretty sure the latter actually gets described as a Sadist by the Pokedex in one of the games, though Spiritomb did also cross my mind, just for the sheer fact that E.C. with Spiritomb's eyes would be epic horror beyond comprehension...

Again, I didn't think of Banette or Spiritomb though yes, E.C. with Spiritomb eyes would be epic. Spiritomb is also a ghost/dark like Sableye. I could always tell you the Pokemon I thought of through pm if you wish. XP

I just wanted to make sure I wasn't being ignored because I don't like being ignored, it makes me want to screech and scream what I want to say so that people actually pay attention. I also despise being interrupted repeatedly because it is like you get to 199 dodges in FFX and then someone comes in, making you miss the 200th one and get struck by lightning. Then whenever you start to dodge the lightning a lot, they make a loud noise to make you fail. And yes, dodging the lightning is hard and you have to do it 200 times to get an important item for the ultimate weapons. -_O
