Mewtations: No Escape * Sign Ups *

[Roy Karrde]

The Legendary RPG Created by Vulpix.ck, a TPM Original from 2001

The year was 2007. It’s been 14 years since the pride of the Pokémon League, Red, rose to stardom. Team Rocket was thought to have been abandoned 9 years ago. For some time, there was peace on earth.

They came with out warning, Team Rocket the group long thought abandoned rose up almost over night. Explosions rocked cities all along Johto and Kanto, causing thousands of deaths, and even more injured. Worst of all the government of the two lands were destroyed; the capitals were in flames, their leaders badly maimed or dead. The countries were thrown into chaos as people hid in fear, clinging to their families.

With one week of terror Team Rocket was ready, poised to sweep in and take over the countries of Johto and Kanto, the resistance against their rule was light, with fear of further waves of bombings keeping many at bay. By the end of the year Team Rocket had cemented their rule, destroying the constitution of the two nations in favor of one built on fear and tyranny.

For the civilians it was even worse, Pokemon that could be considered a threat to Team Rocket were banned, either rounded up and redistributed to Team Rocket members, or destroyed out right. Adults suspected of being dangerous to Team Rocket’s reign were shipped to concentration camps designed for a slow death. Meanwhile teenagers were recruited into the Team Rocket Corps to train them and turn them into foot soldiers for the regime.

For Team Rocket that wasn’t enough, they wanted the Legendaries, both birds and beasts that were native to both countries and held power far beyond the Pokemon they already had captured. With the Legendaries their rule would be cemented, and no other nation would dare challenge them. As Team Rocket hunted for the Legendary Pokemon, and human and Pokemon alike cried out in fear and anguish, a Pokemon only known in fairy tales was awoken.

~~~~ 2 Years Later ~~~~

You are a member of a small group of teenagers hidden away on the other side of Mt Moon: Midnight Forest, a haven both for your group as you escaped Team Rocket’s dictatorship, and Pokemon lucky enough to escape slaughter by Team Rocket. At first Team Rocket is content with letting pockets of refugee camps such as yours exist, but even their blind eye to the midnight forest has a sinister purpose.

As the year winds down, the first batch of foot soldiers for Team Rocket are nearing their final exam, Team Rocket decides to test their new soldiers by turning them loose upon the Midnight Forest, with orders to put a end to the refugee groups.

As Team Rocket swoops in with their helicopters to attack the Midnight Forest, a small Pokemon zips by. In the Midnight Forest, before your eyes, Mew appears, no longer content with watching the horrors brought upon human and Pokemon, Mew releases a wave of pink energy that washes over you, even catching one of the first Team Rocket Helicopters.

Mew has bestowed upon you the powers of one Pokemon, from the Flamethrower of Charizard, to the morphing powers of Ditto, to the Psychic powers of Abra, each one in the group has received one power. And with it, your body has also added one part from that Pokemon.

Mew has given those of the Midnight Forest the power to fight back against Team Rocket, to end their reign. But Team Rocket now knows of your powers as well, and has now turned its attention to tracking you down for experimentation and dissection.

The fate of millions, the fate of two nations, now rests in your hands.

Name: Roy Karrde ( Teh Original! )
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Alliance: Midnight Forest
Physical Looks: He's around 6 foot with messy dark brown hair, he combs it to the side but he is clearly in need of a haircut. and hazel eyes, he has a semi muscular build, and wears a blue tee shirt which has a red flame on the middle of the shirt, he always wears his dark brown jacket with him, as well as blue jeans with a hole cut out for his tail. His hair mostly hides a long cut on his forehead that he received when he escaped from his captors.
Personality: Roy has grown to be somewhat of a leader to the Midnight Forest Refugees, this causes him a lot of stress, but he is usually upbeat and friendly, he can be distant when the stress overwhelms him, he does not let many see him under stressed and during times in which lives are on the line he can get cold and angry under fire.
History: He was one of the founders of the Midnight Forest Refugee camp, when the bombings happened his parents sent him fleeing to Midnight Forest, as the weeks passed he was joined by some, and made daring raids into some close cities to gather more. He knows his family is dead, but has too many responsibilities in Midnight Forest to worry.
Pokémon: Tyranatar, Chikorita, and Charmander
Power: Flamethrower * In the beginning the power he can shoot a long string of flames from his mouth that could engulf a person, as time goes on his flames will get stronger and be able to engulf several people or create a long barrier of fire * He also has a scaily Charizard tail with a bright flame at its tip. The tail is not very thick and fits his human frame pretty well as he keeps it curled around his leg some times with out the flame burning him or his clothes.
Weapons: He carries a P90 that he was able to get off a Team Rocket soldier off the first battle. He barely uses it because of the amount of ammo it consumes.
Other: None yet although I may change the power/Pokemon part as I am iffy on it.

Name: Annie Heller
Gender: Female
Age: 15
Alliance: Team Rocket
Physical Looks: [link] She stands at almost 5'1 with long, straight black hair with a single streak of blue running through it and yellow eyes. She wears a blue and black sleeveless jacket with a black tank top under it with a matching skirt, boots, gloves, and cap, and long socks.
Personality: Annie tries to be the cheerful and bubbly one of the group, and tends to bottle up her true feelings for the sake of others. She has a very cynical outlook on life and tries not to let anyone else know, because she's afraid of being a bother. Annie also has a habit of overthinking things, which isn't bad, but it often depresses her. She often poses as the voice of reason and has a tendency to smack Roy whenever he's being pigheaded and/or arrogant despite the height difference.
History: Annie doesn't remember much about her family, having been taken from her home when she was barely three and thrown into an orphanage, waiting to be trained when she grew up. Although she was not the best soldier, she was talented as a tactician and was sent with the first group of soldiers to raid the refugees. However, she was fed up with being a tool for Team Rocket and deserted, joining up with the Midnight Forest Refugees.
Pokémon: Pidgeot, Quilava, Milotic
Power: Dark Pulse: She can fire these at people to buy some time or cause a diversion.
She inherited alternate colored Umbreon ears and tail. She hides the ears under her cap and tries to hide her tail under her black and blue skirt by tying it up.
Weapons: She has a light, collapsable staff with a pointy end. Roy is usually on the receiving end of it.
Other: Didn't feel like coming up with a new character design, so I'm using my sprite thingy.

[VirtualPlay]

Name: Katharine (Kat) Blairre
Gender: Female
Age: 16
Alliance: Midnight Forest
Physical Looks: Kat stands tall for her age at around 5'8", has a medium-small build, doesn't have a large amount of muscle, and isn't too well-endowed. Her skin is fair bordering on pale, as she doesn't spend much time outside. She has slightly frizzy brown hair that reaches halfway down her back, and her eyes are a bright green that seems to sparkle in any light.
Her current set of clothes includes a barely-fitting light blue baby-doll tee, a black pleated skirt that reaches halfway down her thighs, a pair of light gray capri leggings, and a pair of white sneakers over white socks.
Personality: Kat is very empathic, being able to feel how others feel and partially know what they're thinking. Despite the state of the world and her history, she has an optimistic look on her life. She knows it's not possible for the world to suddenly become peaceful, but she knows that there will be something each day that will make that day worth it. She also has a gut feeling that one day Team Rocket will be overthrown, and lives through each day so that she can eventually see that time. She tends to be a voice of calm reason when other people are fighting, but sometimes the fighting gets to be too much and because she's an empath she has no choice but to hide somewhere until it stops.
History: Up until 2007, Kat had lived a nice life living with her parents, who were both Gym trainers (not leaders). On that fateful day, however, she happened to be visiting the gym when Team Rocket went and bombed the place. Kat ended up getting thrown into a wall, hitting her head and putting her into a small coma.
When she woke up two weeks later, it was to a hidden cave and a semi-severe loss of memories. She still remembered core details about her life (like name, age, etc.), but her vast knowledge of Pokémon as well as any worldly knowledge had faded from her; she remembers having parents, but can't remember what they did or what they looked like. Seeing her own Pokémon has sparked a small bit of memory about them, and now every time she sees a new Pokémon (that she had encountered before) she remembers some random facts about it.
Pokémon: Pikachu, Misdreavus, Gallade (if you're allowing DPPt Pokémon)
Power: Transformation (assuming you don't mind) - At first she transforms slowly (not instantly like a normal Ditto), can only transform her body into a Pokémon that she thinks of (and as explained in History, she's forgotten most of the Pokémon she grew up with), and she can't stay in a form for long or she passes out. She gets much faster as she develops, after a short time she can transform her clothes as well, and eventually she starts to be able to transform into people she sees as well.
Her skin has taken on a noticeable pink tinge, turning the skin on her body a bubble-gum color except her hands (to just above her wrists), feet (to just above her ankles), and head (to the bottom of her neck); when she later can transform it away, she typically doesn't bother because it requires her to focus on it.
Weapons: Nothing, she's not a fighter. She borrows weapons when they're needed.
Other: Yay amnesia! Also friends with Braden, being able to feel his pain and actually understand him, despite his minimal communication.

[classy_cat18]

Name: Kite
Gender: Male
Age: 15
Alliance: Midnight Forest
Physical Looks: A fiery redhead standing at 5'6", with a lean, slightly muscular build. His large eyes are a dark brown color, complimenting his slightly tan skin. Bangs cover his right eye while his hair is cut short in the back. He wears a short sleeved black T-shirt, and straight-leg blue jeans, both ripped. Although he owns worn-out white sneakers, he's sometimes seen without them. Small scratches can be seen all over his body due to his daily activities, which include climbing, swimming, running, fighting, and trying not to die.
Personality: Kite is not one to stay still most of the time. He'll wander outside the refuge camp in order to explore and collect anything that's of interest to him, and then talk about it with everyone else. But a lot of the time his curiosity will get into trouble, and then he'll need the first aid kit. He's persistent and assertive, always having either a smirk or a deep frown (from having a bad day). His worst trait? His sticky fingers. He won't (usually) steal from the other refugees, but everyone else is a target. He's good at it too.
History: He doesn't really know anything. One night, Team Rocket attacked his town, and his older brother knocked him out and carried him to safety since Kite wanted to stay and fight instead. His brother wasn't there; all everyone said was that he returned to get something but he never returned.
Pokémon: Kecleon, Persian, Taillow
Power: Electricity. At first it's a small, almost uncontrollable attack. He prefers to use it on contact, or to electrify his weapons. He also grows a fully functional Aipom tail (Aipom can learn Thunderbolt).
Weapons: He keeps a set of kunai knives in a pouch he keeps strapped to his leg.
Other: Carries a pouch of small items he finds interesting.

Ooh okay, reserve me a place? I want some sort of Houndoom-y thing, if we have to reserve pokies, plx. Don't wanna be the same as someone else.

[Adrenaline]

Name: Max
Gender: Male
Age: 14
Alliance: Midnight Forest
Physical Looks: Max stands at about 5'11, not too tall, and not too short. He has short and spiky blonde hair, the kind that is just like a wave in the front, and smooth and flat in the back. His eyes are a beautiful light blue shade and seem to glow in the dark. He has deathly pale skin, almost like a corpse. He is rather skinny, but his legs and abbs are very muscular due to all the running and sit-ups he does. (He doesn't do much arm work for his daily workout.) He wears a black button up dress shirt with the top few buttons open so people can see his navy blue muscle shirt underneath, and he rolls the sleeves up to his elbows. He wears navy blue jeans to match his muscle shirt, and black sneakers. He wears a necklace with a sapphire raindrop, that was given to him by his grandmother before she died in a raid, caused by Team Rocket. He also keeps a silver watch on his wrist, and wears a silver cross, from back when he went to church with his dad and grandmother.
Personality: Max is the generous type. He is the person in the group that people are most likely to talk to bout their problems, even at his age. He is very kind and always open minded. Eve though he has had his own struggles along the way, he has always been there for other people, and put them ahead of himself. He tends to keep his feelings all bottled up, and unleashes them all at once on someone or something. Usually it is because of someone making him aggrivated enough to the point where he finally snaps, or where he gets so depressed to the point where someone finally takes the time to notice, and he lets it all out to the poor person who asked him what was wrong. He has no problem stating his opinion, in fact, he puts his opinion out there often. He loves to talk it up, especially with the ladies. After all the things that has happened to him in the past years, he just wants to take the time to sit back and unfold. But of course nobody will let him do that, not with Team Rocket around.
History: The only two people that he has lived with in his entire life, were taken away by Team Rocket, never to be seen again. He always wonders if they killed his father and grandmother, or if they just put them into exile along with the other numerous people. He has been put on his own for a year after his guardians had gotten taken away, but then he came across the Midnight Forest Refugees. He has ben a sole member ever since.
Pokémon: Absol
Power: Max gained the ability to use the move Giga Drain. In the beginning he will only be able to drain a small amount of life from a living thing. As it gets more powerful he will be able to drain more life out of a living thing and be able to regain a lot more health. He has also acquired a Grovyle leaf that juts out the back of his head, and two leaf at the wrists.
Weapons: He keeps a long, swift knife under his pant leg. Uses it mainly for utility, but can be seen having it as a weapon in battle from time to time too.
Other: Is good friends with Roy. (if thats okay)

[DivineAll]

Name: Isaac Cooper
Gender: Male
Age: 21
Alliance: Team Rocket
Physical Looks: Isaac stands an even 6 feet tall with short, messy, light brown hair and a build of someone who's trained for combat. He usually wears a black leather jacket, blue cargo jeans, white tennis shoes, and a pair of sunglasses that hides his striking green eyes. Imprinted on the back of the back of his leather jacket is a red R, indicating he is or was a member of Team Rocket.
Personality: Isaac is a fairly intelligent, nearly unfazed person who seems to show absolutely no emotion, other than one of complete seriousness. Even though he mostly doesn't show it through his facial expressions, he is caring and compassionate towards others and to Pokémon, especially his own. He is dedicated to doing any task he has been given and will complete it by any means necessary unless it goes against his own moral code. His moral code is that no one should die unnecessarily without a very good reason. Also, he is not ashamed of his historical background whatsoever; he is proud of it and will remind anyone if he needs to.
History: He was raised into Team Rocket and trained as one of their own from the day he was born. He never knew his parents, but according to his superiors his father was a Rocket elite and his mother was a caring Breeder who fell in love and tried to keep their relationship a secret but failed miserably once the organization found out. Even though he inherited his mother's caring nature, he slowly rose through the ranks and became a commander at a young age, thanks to his father's legacy. However, he knows that he'll eventually be forced to do a task for the Rockets that goes completely against his moral code and will join the Midnight Forest Refugees if his is told to do it.
Pokémon: Ralts, Dragonair, Typhlosion
Power: Future Sight - He can clearly see future events and actions but only if he's sleeping because, apparently, the visions of the future are best seen in his own dreams. The time period in which the events will happen vary from happening within a day, at the least, to a year, at the most. Apparently, as he's told, he inherits Kadabra's red star on the center of his forehead, when he's fast asleep.
Weapons: A longsword, that apparently belonged to his father, that he keeps strapped to his left side.
Other: He really likes dark chocolate.

[Weasel Overlord]

HAY ALL, SORRY IT TOOK SO LONG, LIKE.

Name: Charon Andeor, but cos most people mispronounce it, she'll accept Shadow.
Gender: Female. SHOCKU.
Age: 19
Alliance: Team Rocket's rocket
Physical Looks: Charon is about 5'8”, with short golden-blonde hair which sticks up and out and every which way, as if she's constantly got her finger in a plug socket. Her eyes are green, her nose is small and she has an almost-constant crease between her eyebrows. Her nose and cheeks are smattered with freckles, much to her annoyance, and they only get more pronounced when she's in the sun for any length of time.
Around her neck, Charon wears a black ribbon-and-lace choker tied with an elaborate bow at the back of her neck. From it dangles any number of charms – one bell (blue), one bone (white), one frying pan (silver), two metal feathers (gold with blue veins), one sphere (purple), and one small cage (silver) containing a bird (blue). Because of this necklace, she pretty much jingles with every movement. Her upper-wear is a tight-fitting (to accentuate her rather shapely figure) black silk tank top, embroidered with flowers and hummingbirds down the left side. On the bottom, she wears a flowing silver skirt (one which allows large amounts of movement), asymmetric, with about five layers underneath, none of which is the same as the one above. The silver is a subtle shade, not a tacky bright one, and the underskirts are varying shades of grey and silver. On her feet she wears a pair of black, steel-toe-capped knee-high boots with killer heels about three inches high, making her overall height (with boots) 5'11”. The boots are stompy and clompy, and if you get your toe stood on by them, your foot might just get flattened.
Personality: Charon is, to put is bluntly, a firebrand. She's completely aggro in every sense of the word, and will never fail to start an argument if she's awake. She has the wits and intelligence to twist most arguments round in her favour, and she uses these tools deftly to manipulate anyone into doing what she wants them to do. This comes with a high dosage of bossiness, so be prepared to have orders issued. She will never back down from a fight, and never flee, no matter what the situation. Despite these “negative” traits, Charon is fiercely loyal to those she counts among her friends (few though these people are), and she'll fight to the death to protect them, while at the same time, lashing them mercilessly with her acerbic wit.
Has a habit of shouting, and of letting small annoyances set off a temper flare. She isn't one to easily forgive and forget a slight against her, but over time she might come round.
May spend indeterminate amounts of time talking like a new mother to her doggies. Mention this or laugh at this at your own peril.
History: Charon grew up in the sheltered bosom of a highly respected Team Rocket family, and was therefore expected (and forced) to go into the same “trade” as soon as she was old enough. She pretty much grew up with Hob from a young age, and ever since joining Team Rocket together, they've been inseparable, although you wouldn't think it from their heated exchanges.
Pokémon: Growlithe, Houndoom and Poochyena.
Power: Beat Up – She calls upon her team of pooches and they all mob whatever enemy is around with dark energy attacks.
Inherited Houndoom horns – they curl out from her temples, and are silver in colour and wickedly pointed. They sweep back until they almost touch her neck. Not only that, but she got some of the bony structures elsewhere too; most notably, a pair circling both of her wrists. These may look like bracelets, but they don't move, and are as hard as stone if she hits you with them. May also have a few smaller ones up her spine, but no-one's ever seen them, as she stays clothed at all times.
Weapons: Her boots are pretty fierce... No weapons. She fights with fists and kicks and headbutts and whatnot.
Other: Had intensive martial arts training every day as a child. Likes to bite people as a way of showing that she likes them. Oh, of course, is an acquaintance of the other Rocket members.

[Emotional Faun Chiko-sai]

*flits by*

Name: Hob Standen
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Alliance: Rocket
Physical Looks: On official records he is 5'9". (Looks taller now, with a giant ghosty Mismagius hat and all.) Rather thin, and is the sort of person you would expect to have knobbly knees (he does). He is quite fair and has a depressing tendency to turn lobster-red and contract sunburn in hot climates. Has violet eyes and a beautifully straight nose (a redeeming feature) and raggedy chestnut-brown hair that looks as though someone's been at it with a cleaver.
He is dapper and almost formal in his dressing, effecting a mangled version of a three-piece suit - in black and purple, with a gilt watch-fob, expertly-tied cravat and silk brocade waistcoat. Of late these have got ragged and worn at the cuffs and joins, and more than a little dusty. His shoes, in particular, previously the pride of Piccadilly have never quite recovered.
His default expression is an exasperated scowl; or, in his better moods, a grimace.
Personality: Hob actually likes company. He doesn't show it very well. Despite his joining a tyrannical terrorist organization he is really quite naive and believes that there are ways that things should or shouldn't be done (however improbable that might sound). He is reasonably intelligent and quite sarcastic. He would also be absolutely mortified if anyone were to laugh at him; oftimes this mortification manifests itself in rage.
He tries to be calm and composed but this is usually thrown off centre with a well-placed insult or insinuation whereupon he breaks into a rage that is either magnificent or frightening to behold depending on whose side you're on.
tl;dr despite his best and most well-meaning efforts to the contrary, he is cynical, choleric and politely misanthropic.
History: Has known Charon since they were snot-nosed sprogs. They met in a playground fight; neither of them quite liked each other's face, apparently, and spent the better part of fifteen minutes attempting to pound each other into a jelly before deciding that it was more beneficial for both parties to enter into a partnership and pound other people whose faces they did not like into jellies.
He is fond of ghost Pokemon; he grew up in a house full of them. Although he also grew up in a house full of his family, this worked in a contrary manner and he has since stooped to joining an organization that condones arson and reigns of terror in order to get away from them.
Pokémon: Haunter; Buneary; Ninetales
Power: He has the intangibility normally displayed only by Ghost pokemon; he can walk through walls and indeed anything solid, including physical attacks. It'll be painful at first, although the pain appears to be psychological, and disorientating to say the least.
Hob's got Mismagius's hat. The precise physical properties of this are complicated. On the one hand, he obviously cannot remove it from his head. On the other hand, it appears to be intangible on certain occasions, such as when Hob wants to shampoo his hair. Not to mention that it is large and noticeable and it would be ridiculously easy to spot Hob in a crowd.
Weapons: Double-bladed katars. He's not a melee kind of person, really, unless he's drunk and/or angry. He leaves all that to Charon; he usually does interrogation.
Other: He would possibly rather commit murder and/or suicide before he willingly told anyone the full version of his first name(s) (he likes people to think that it's Robert). Also: he's faster than he looks. Also also: knows Isaac by sight, because of the Rocket connection (if that's all right with DivineAll).

[Roy Karrde]

Thank you so much for everyone that joined. I will be starting either later tonight or tomorrow morning. Right now I am battling a bit of a throat bug and it just makes me feel like crap.

[The_Missing_Link]

Name: Danielle Fisher
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Alliance: Midnight Forest
Physical Looks: Danielle stands at 5'10'' with a lithe but strong build. She is tanned and has blue eyes, brown hair always set in a ponytail, straight nose, and a mouth that looks like it's permanently set in a frown. Since she's always on the move and performing dirty work, a black tank top, jeans, and sneakers seem to suit her needs well.
Personality: Danielle was happy and carefree until almost everyone she knew was murdered. Now she's stoic, grim, and generally in a sullen mood. She's determined to bring Team Rocket down any way she can and will only associate herself with those that are like-minded (which isn't a whole lot in the camp as most are content to just flee and hide).
History: Danielle was training with her grandfather Pryce (of the Mahogany Town Gym) and other trainers when bombs went off from somewhere inside the gym. It was pure chaos - Pokemon and humans alike rushing to get out of the burning building that was on the verge of collapse. Danielle was struck with panic and couldn't move but her Staryu managed to teleport her outside to a copse of trees near the gym. From there, she watched in horror as friends, colleagues, and their Pokemon tried to escape outside but were shot down by Team Rocket. Not wanting to get caught, she fled and managed to find safety at a friend's house outside of town. She later found out that everyone in the gym was dead, including her grandfather. Her parents were apparently targeted as well but managed to escape, although their current location was unknown. Overcome with grief and anger, Danielle made it her mission to avenge Pryce and her fellow trainers by harassing Team Rocket whenever she could (and kill if given the chance). She's been moving between resistance groups for the past year and is currently with the group located in the Midnight Forest, although she seems set to move on soon.
Pokémon: Sneasel, Staryu, Scizor
Power: Teleport. At first she will only be able to move a few feet and it can be mentally draining but the distance and mental stamina will increase over time. In the end she'll even be able to teleport to far-away places she's been to before and teleport other people. She gains Staryu's gem, which appears on her right hand (not the palm).
Weapons: She has multiple knives (of varying sizes) and will not hesitate to use them.
Other:None

[ChobiChibi]

I be reserving Kecleon's colour change ability :3 Signing up tomorrow~

[Crystal Tears]

Name: Braden
Gender: Male
Age: 14
Alliance: Refugee
Physical Looks: He stands at 5’5’’, with light blond almost white hair that’s sort of long (for a boy), slightly layered and shaggy. His eyes are a faint beautiful yet tired green, worn out from the experiences the boy has had. Braden’s skin is fair, seemingly untouched by the harshness around him. His wears baggy, dark green (almost military green) long shorts (I forgot their technical name 8D) that are held on his slightly lanky body by a black belt with a silver buckle. He wears a somewhat baggy muscle shirt/tank top that’s a bit worn due to the condition of the world. Braden’s left arm is wrapped in bandage up to his elbow, with a black clothe overtop from his wrist to just below the elbow. His shoes look very close to black ‘chucks’ (shoes 8D, but without the converse symbol). Overall he has that cute ‘young teen’ look to him, which he abhors because adults usually comment on it.
He also has a pale grey-beige bag with all his supplies in it, including his mp3 player with large silver headphones he’ll occasionally listen to when he thinks what he’s hearing from people isn’t worth listening to (no one knows this but Katharine).
Personality: Braden is quiet overall; he’s seen many horrible things that have almost turned him mute. He is much of a thinker, analyzing even the littlest of things and in his little notebook he’ll write down his findings. His schooling was cut short by the rockets, so his writing is really a jumbled up mess of letters, numbers and unrecognizable symbols (though it wasn’t much better when schooling was taking place). If he does say something (which is rare), it’ll be at most one word to sum up what’s going on or what’s wrong. Braden is also a very curious boy, something he doesn’t understand he’ll often try and take, just to figure out what it’s for and how it works. Because of this trait he has a phenomenal understandings of mechanics and machinery (including guns), though he couldn’t tell you (even if he wanted to), what the technical names were anything. He’s often seen either by himself, with his Baltoy, or following Katharine around, showing little to no interest in anyone else. He's an awfully good listener though, and will never spill anyone's secrets, partly due to never talking, and because he never breaks his word.
History: Not much is said about Braden’s past, he’s seen horrible things and they scared his voice away. Maybe hints are in his journals, but because they’re in gibberish, no one can figure anything out (it’s also unclear why he doesn’t know how to spell when he’s fourteen).
Pokémon: Baltoy
Power: Braden has inherited Metagross’s Iron Defense. At the beginning he can strengthen his skin and give it a cool silvery gleam which can lessen the blow of attacks and projectiles. As the power grows, he’ll be able to sustain the state for longer and it’ll only increase its defensive boost (as in no bruising or welts from the attacks deflected). The physical traits he inherited from Metagross is harden skin, making him a *tad* more resilience to physical damage that others, and a faint, silver coloured ‘X’ on his face (crosses on the bridge of his nose/in-between eyes)
Weapons: He keeps a simplistic black pistol in his bag, with one extra clip. He never uses it though; often he forgets it’s there.
Other: Good friends with Katharine, though no one really knows how this works as he never says a word to her but she seems to know what he’s ‘talking’ about (If that’s alright VP)
