Lapras Valley University (Semester 2) Starts! (Sign-ups)

[Dark-San]

^~^~Lapras Valley University (Semester 2) Starts!~^~^

Five years have pass in a winking of an eye since the last RPG in Lapras Valley University happened. The surrounding area in which Lapras Valley University is located in had improved greatly in terms of accessibility and shopping and commercial districts starts popping out like no tomorrow due to the successful economic reforms.

Students other than those around the Kanto, Johto, Shihou and Houen area had heard of this prestigious tertiary institution from far and came over to study here. Hence the education competitiveness had been raised and many great education reforms occurred over this period. To earn a bachelor for training battling pokemon in the past used to be an easy feat but not anymore as the modules get more difficult. On top of that, two more additional degrees were added into the curriculum, they are the breeding courses and the pokemon contest courses.

You are an ordinary student who had been accepted into the institution and belonged to one of the three faculties. However the three faculties had always been at odds with each other and each student from each of these faculty treats the rest as rivals. A mere confrontation with a student of a different major will result in an arguments and most times, it would be settled through confrontation of pokemon battles. The best primitive method to resolve any enmity.

You have ambition to either become a top pokemon trainer, a top class breeder or the top pokemon contest entertainer. By any means, you will go through your student life there and made new friends and enemies along the way. To make your mark there, you may even battle your way to the top, against friends and enemies alike. Will you make it?

------------------------------------------------------

Additional rules – adapted from the original Lapras Valley University by Drusilla

1) Up to 6 Pokemon per student
2) All students are normal people. This means NO psychic powers, morphing abilities, coming back from the dead, or anything else you crazy people come up with.
3) NO FREAKIN' LADY BLASTOISE! She was OK at first, but she REALLY got on my nerves after awhile, and I'm not the only one. And no one likes her.
4) The only reason any legendaries should be in here is if we go on a "field trip" and see one. No student may have a legendary.
5) Please keep Team Rocket in limited amounts. I will be the judge of what is too much on this one...
6) If you have a problem with how one person is posting (ex- Putting Caps On Every Word Like This) please post a courteous request for them to stop.

[~Genki Katchum~]

So wait.. are these sign-ups or the actual RPG starting..? I'll just post a sign-up sheet since I'm totally unsure...

Name: Genki Ryugami
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Physical Desc.: 6'4"; short, shaggy/curly brown hair that goes down to his eyebrows in the front and down the neck like usual short hair styles; lightly tanned skin; hazel eyes; slim with a little extra meat on the skin; wears a red t-shirt with a blue long-sleeve over-shirt and blue jeans; brown and black shoes with red laces and highlights scattered around the shoes
Personality: A little quiet--but not because he's shy; rather, it's because he's constantly thinking. Sometimes his mind wanders, but when it comes to battling, he's thinking of nothing but strategies. He can get prideful when it comes to anything remotely competitive, but can be a really nice guy otherwise. He doesn't lose his cool easily and rarely--if ever--shows a more violent or emotive (or as he puts it as "unstable") emotion. He tends to look down upon people who express this "instability" of emotion in excess. Though, he does laugh and do things like a normal person; just not in excess. When it comes to his pokemon, he doesn't have a very personal affection toward most of them (sans his Umbreon) and thinks of them more as objects towards victory than pets--though he does understand that it is normal for others to get emotionally closer to their pokemon since he has a similar relationship with his Umbreon.
Bf/Gf: None... as of yet...
History: He grew up with a loving mom and a strict, but loving dad and, based on their raising techniques, should act and think just like any other person his age. However, an experience changed him forever when he was 10-years old. While walking home from school, he saw the school bullies beating up on a frightened Eevee. Genki felt so upset about what he saw that he lost control of himself and rushed at the bullies screaming. The bullies easily took him down by throwing a few punches then proceeded to beat him. That was when the Eevee attacked the bullies with a quick attack and scared them off. After the experience, Genki realized that he shouldn't have let his emotions get the better of him and that he should become more calculative in his actions. From that day on, Genki was a much calmer person and got into the habit of thinking more before doing anything. He and the Eevee (who stayed beside him after being rescued) had been training ever since that day and have grown close despite Genki's reluctance to give into such an emotion. It upsets him greatly when he fails at something since he has become somewhat of a genius when it comes to thinking strategically. He's been able to defeat t the gym leaders of the Kanto, Johto, Shinou areas without any struggle, but has yet to challenge the Elite Four groups of each region. However, it is something on his "To Do" List...
Other: Music Theme -- Prayer - HYDE
Pokemons: Umbreon, Raichu, Linoone, Noctowl, Poliwrath, Gengar
Degree: Battling

[classy_cat18]

Where's Shihou? Do you mean Shinou?

Name: Naomi Windfall
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Physical Desc.: A slim, dark skinned individual standing at six feet, Naomi seems a little out of place. Her dark brown hair is usually in a long ponytail that goes halfway down her back and goes with her lighter brown eyes. She wears a denim jacket that covers a white sleeveless tee and blue jeans. She sometimes takes the jacket off during battle. Her jewelry consists of a black choker with a Lure Ball charm and a silver bracelet with charms that look like the eight Kanto gym badges.
Personality: Naomi has a bubbly spirit and slightly ditzy personality. However, it's hard to say whether she's really dumb or just acting that way. It's sometimes easy for her to get distracted by Pokemon related things. She is easily affected by cuteness and will melt at the sight of even an opponent's Pokemon. But during battle she can think on her feet and has a good knowledge of Pokemon.
Bf/Gf: Any takers?
History: Born and raised in the Orange Islands, she wrapped herself in Pokemon skills as there was little to do at first. Naval Island was her "home base" but her parents' role as researchers had her travelling to different islands. Meeting professors from other regions gave her the opportunity to meet and catch different Pokemon. Although she hasn't competed in any league tournament, she has formed a team with good potential.
Other: Has bouts where she craves something sweet.
Pokemon: Female Roselia (Demeter), Staryu (Jewel), Male Kecleon (Bandit), Male Luxio (Static), Female Swellow (Swoop), Male Quilava (Dante)
Degree: Battling

[Perfect Chaos]

I'd like to reserve a spot. I've talked with Roy and I'm thinking of making my re-emergence in RPG with this one. Thanks

-Sean

[Dark-San]

So wait.. are these sign-ups or the actual RPG starting..? I'll just post a sign-up sheet since I'm totally unsure...

Hah, it is a sign up topic. You forgotten to take a look at the topic name throughy. ^.^

The response so far so good but isn't there anyone that takes up other degrees instead of just battling? =(

-------------------------------------

Name: Hiroshi Nagasaki

Age: 22

Gender: Male

Physical Desc.: An averagly tanned muscular body figure. His body bears the scars from his regular beatings of his stepfather who had passed away a few years ago. He has also a funny unique foreign vocal that would probably pissed off the person speaking to him.

Personality: He blamed all of these tortures on him mom, who was powerless to do anything to stop and since then he had left home and vow never to return. Due to this vow, he had been very self-sufficient and had been seen doing part-time jobs whenever he could.

An independent and hardworking boy, he works his way to the top of high school before a company snapped him up for a scholarship. Because of his tortured past, he has a view that using pokemons to battle are cruel. Battles do not seek to bond the trainers with their pokemons but rather tortured them and push them to their limits.

Hence as a result, he despise anyone that comes from the battling degree.

Bf/Gf: Any takers?

History: Though attending the breeding course, he had some form of battling experience before. His first pokemons were a pair of Dratini twins that he once save from being captured by his neighbour who live across the street. His neighbour is infamous for mistreating pokemons. And as a result of his interferances, he got beaten up real hard.

His battling experiences that he gained are from battling serious trainers and wild pokemons. But unlike the ones who seek to win, Hiroshi is one who will throw in the towels and concede the match before his pokemons get boot.

Pokemon: Dragonairs (Tsubasa and Sora), Pikachu (Denise)

Degree: Breeding

[Mystic_clown]

I'd like to reserve a sign up for this please.

[Crazy Elf Boy]

She has light coloured skin and normally wears a short black shirt with long white sleeves attached to it, Lyzolda always wears a pair of "lucky" blue jeans with a hole over the left kneecap and a long tear over the right calf from an unknown cause. She also always carries a large brown bag with her filled with useful berries

Personality: Lyzolda has a quite harsh personality, she takes great pride in her work and if any one critises anything she does or any of her methods she will almost bring them to near death. Though under this tough exterior Lyzolda is quite nice, but it takes a special person to get past this barrier.

Bf/Gf: Any takers?

History: Lyzolda grew up in the small island town of Dewford in the Hoenn region. At a very young age she started to become involved with pokemon. Getting her very first pokemon from the very same island a cute little Aron which she named Shell Ryu. This sparked her interest in pokemon and her dream to breed them. But over the years she was picked on for breeding rather then battling pokemon.
She became a fierce battler just to show them up, as time took its course Lyzolda became harder with a metaphoric shell just like her Aron. This shell prevented any emotions or feeling being expressed. She also has a knack for growing and using berries

Personality: Has a mostly care-free attitude. He doesn’t do most of his work out of sheer laziness, is pretty smart and manages to compensate by doing very well on big projects/exams that count the most. Shaan is the type of person who is most likely skip class just for the sake of doing so and loves to joke around a lot and just have fun. However, he can be somewhat moody at times, as even the slightest event could also change his mood if something is bothering him.
Bf/Gf: Open! C’mon ladies, who can resist
History: Shaan comes from a strict, but well-to-do family. His father is a Pokemon researcher and whom Shaan gets his laidback side from. His mother, on the other hand, is a sweet, yet overbearing woman who constantly gets on Shaan’s case for his study habits (or lack of).

[~Genki Katchum~]

Hah, it is a sign up topic. You forgotten to take a look at the topic name throughy. ^.^

[Dark-San]

Kk, I didn't that will confuse you all. ^.^

Eitherway RPG starts on the 24 April. If you haven't start on your character thinking, you will have to do it over the weekend.

[Roy Karrde]

Name: Akira Hamilton
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Physical Desc.: With shoulder length red hair, and hazel eyes she looks just like another pretty face. She has a slender yet athletic build, medium size breasts and hips, wearing a cut off denim jacket with the sleeves cut off, with it coming down to just above her waist, a red undershirt beneath it with sleeves.

Bf/Gf: None

Other: Very Skilled in Gymnastics
Pokemons: Chikorita and Kirla
Degree: Contest

[Mystic_clown]

Name: Ienzo Lumaria
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Physical Desc.: quite small, standing at 5 foot with a lean build and a slightly pale complexion. Despite the fact he looks quite young, he has gray hair which covers his right eye. His visible eye, which is a cloudy blue in color, seems to stand out on his face. Due to his short height and young looking face, he’s often considered adorable by girls, and due to his hair and his preference to the color black, he’s considered emo by others.

As for clothing, Ienzo wear’s a lot of black. He wears a white, singlet underneath a black leather coat which is usually fully done up, black pants, boots and glove. Due to his choice of clothing, it adds to his ‘emo’ appearance.
Personality: Despite his appearance, Ienzo isn’t really emo at all. He’s a nice guy and someone you can get along with quite easily. However, he gets quite shy when around girls, especially the pretty ones. Due to his shy persona, people tend to think a bit little of him. This usually results in him being one smug little bastard when he proves he’s better than others. He likes listening to music, especially rock and can be seen attending karaoke nights.
Bf/Gf: none at the moment…poor little emo L
History: Ienzo was never much of a battler. In fact, the only reason he will battle is to try and capture a pokemon. Ienzo prefers showmanship over all else, especially with all the live shows he went to in his youth. After all, Saffron City thrives with entertainment. However, due to his lack of talent, he’s rather shy when it comes to performing himself and normally restricts himself to either lip-syncing along with rock CDs or going to karaoke nights (no one’s told him this, but he’s pretty good). When he learnt about pokemon contests, he saw this as a chance for the fame he’s always wanted. He set out collecting pokemon for his show. However, his first show was, shall we say, less then spectacular, and Ienzo’s shyness returned. He enrolled in Lapras Valley in the hopes he can improve his show and get back on the road to fame.
Other: Who’s a cute little emo?
Pokemons: Mawile (f), Lunatone (m), Solrock (f), Camerupt (m), Misdreavus (f)
Degree: Contest

[Weasel Overlord]

[The_Missing_Link]

Reserve a spot for me. My character is going to be a battler

[Pichu Luver]

I would like to reserve a sign up as well. Um breeder or battler I'm not sure which yet (probably breeder).

[Weasel Overlord]

Squeh! All done! *glomps River* YAY!

Name: Aubrey Loosestrife
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Physical Description: Aubrey is tall and willowy slender, standing at just over six foot. He has long, perfectly straight white-blond hair which reaches to the middle of his back. This is natural white-blond too, none of that peroxide (^_~) shite here.
His eyes are a beautiful soft brown, enough to melt the heart of any he chooses to turn them onto, and set with fluttery lashes that any girl would be proud of.
His cheekbones are high and so well-defined that you could cut yourself on them. Aubrey takes great care of himself, and his hands are always soft and his nails are always perfectly manicured. (Only no polish)
He wears a pair of tight-waisted, but loose-legged jeans in dark blue, perfectly flattering to show off his delectable arse. (Which is delightful – and Aubrey just knows it!)
On top, he wears a deep red shirt which is fitted around the waist and chest, but flares out into flamboyantly baggy sleeves which flutter around when he’s doing his contest thang.
Personality: Flamboyant and extravagant are the two words which describe Aubrey perfectly. He’s talkative, shallow, and absolutely adores fashion. He likes making sarcastic comments about peoples lack of fashion, giving style tips, buffing his nails, clothes, pretty Pokémon, coordinating contest moves, doing his hair, saying “Dahling!” after most sentences, and shopping for shoes. Cos you can never have too many shoes, dahling.
Bf/Gf: Aubrey has no girlfriend or boyfriend, since he’s just too high maintenance. Not to say he wouldn’t like one, mind. If he has an offer, he might take it up, depending on what sort of mood he’s in.
History: Born to the famous coordinator-duo Fleur and Oberon Loosestrife, Aubrey had a life of glamour from his very birth. It was always assumed that he would go to Lapras High for his Contest Degree, and here he is.
He was a pampered child, and as such has a habit of having small tempers occasionally, although he’s got them more under control as he’s grown older.
Pokémon: Roselia [F] Asphodel
Arcanine [M] Briar
Espeon [F] Jonquil
Poochyena [F] Melantha
Altaria [M] Celandine (shiny)
Degree: Contest
Other: He really likes flowers. Hence the Pokémon names, dahling!

[Crystal Tears]

I'll reserve a spot for either battler or Breeder, haven't decided which yet...

[Hyperness is a Good Thing]

can I reserve a spot for Contest?
(sign up will be up after lunch >.>)

[Crystal Tears]

Name: Kristy Mizushima
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Physical Desc.:Exactly five feet tall (which causes her some distress), Kristy has long black hair that’s layered. The entire cut comes down to just below her shoulders, died a pretty combination of golden blond and various shades of brown. Kristy left the under layers of her hair black, giving it a nice effect. She has a deep tan, and hypnotic grey-ice blue eyes. She’s extremely attractive, and looks all the more in her loose cargo pants with a red dragon seemingly ‘crawling’ up the left leg. Numerous silver chains dangle from the pants, and a red and black (horizontally) striped t-shirt that has a collared v-neck design. On her left arm is a red arm warmer, and on her right is a black one. She also has nifty black ‘skater’ shoes.
Personality: Happy and up beat, Kristy’s one of those people who hates fighting and loves to make others feel better. No matter what mood they’re in, Kristy’s ‘bubbly’ nature can make them feel a bit more optimistic. She has an aura around her that draws people near her, and she welcomes the company. It’s really hard to hate her, because she’ll never hate you back. Enemy or friend, Kristy’s ready to help anyone out. This however, makes her all to trusting and she ends up getting hurt a lot. Be betrayed reveals a darker side to Kristy that’s fuelled by loathing and the need for revenge. Guess that’s where her love for ‘evil’ Pokemon came from.
Bf/Gf: None, but it certainly open to one.
History: (Can’t finish until River stops being elusive…)
Other: … Friends are welcome? XD
Pokemons: Haunter [♂], Banette [♀], Spiritomb [♂], Kadabra [♀], Misdreavus [♀], Umbreon [♀]
Degree: Battling

*Might edit in nicknames later...

[Shadow Djinn]

Name: Cosmo Cariso
Age: 19
Gender : Male
Physical Desc.: His main hairdo is long black hair with bangs that usually cover his eyes, forcing him to constantly brush it away. A dark blue coat is worn over a white shirt, with the coat going down to his thighs. His eyes have a lazy feel, dark black and usually portraying uninterest. Standing at 6'3, Cosmo is incredibly bony, though his legs are muscled from years of running. He wears plain black slacks that sag, somewhat covering his pair of white shoes, streaked with blue. Across his waist is a crisp, new pokeball belt, with the number of slots occupied often random. The belt itself is of black leather, and a necklace is worn on his neck, holding another pokeball decorated with a gilded C. (Therefore the maximum pokeballs on his belt is five.)
Personality: Laid back and uninterested, Cosmo is often bored with life overall. He even considers battling somewhat of a nuisance, though deep down he is a quick thinker, able to adapt to situations easily. He has several sore spots that can get him mad really quickly, (covered in history), and also dislikes being told what to do. A strong feeling of independence is inside him, and Cosmo is quick to refuse help when others offer it, no matter the situation. Possessing a great knack for subtle sarcasm, it's often hard to tell if he's telling the truth or just screwing around (whcih he likes to do a lot as well). His sleeping habits are incredibly abnormal, and it's not uncommon to see him snoozing off in class and walking around at ungodly hours.
Bf/Gf: None
History: The Cariso family was rather notorious, known throughout the world for being one of the biggest pokemon breeding/selling companies in the regions. Cosmo's father always had a knack for both breeding and business, incredibly quick in seizing business deals. Raised on a secluded mansion in the Seafoam Islands, Cosmo saw his father and mother only once or twice a year. When he was nine, he was reluctantly allowed to attend a Pokemon boarding school in Johto (near Blackthorn), where he received his first pokemon, a Growlithe. In his first few years, Cosmo worked incredibly hard in his training, until the fourth term, where during his midterm practical exam, his teacher criticized his entire personality and battling style to great intensity, comparing him to his older brother, Asyri, who had attended the same school and was the top of his class. The instructor claimed he disgraced the Cariso name, and had him removed from his class. Demoralized by this, Cosmo's grades and performance continued to drop until his father pulled him out. Enraged by his poor performance, Cosmo spent his next two years (fourteen and fifteen) at a boarding school for 'juvenille delinquets', which his father now labelled him as. After the second year, he and several of his classmates ran away from the school. Unsure of where to go after that, Cosmo wearily led them to Mt. Pyre (on accident, for reference, the school was near Lilycove), where they met an old couple after one of the escapees stole their dinner. Giving them shelter for several months, a mudslide ended up destroying their home as well as the couple, along with two of Cosmo's friends. With their numbers dwindled to three, the survivors went on seperate paths. One joined Team Magma, while the other joined Team Magma, despite Cosmo's constant protests. Over the years, he now had a team of Arcanine, Eevee, and Nidorino, and decided to travel to Rustboro to take on the first gym. However, he was tracked down by his brother, Asyri, in Slateport City, and unwilling brought back to the main headquarters of Cariso Incorporated in Celadon City. He was then lectured by his father, which eventually lead to him fleeing once more in the middle of a furious rainstorm. His father then gave up on searching for him and disowned him officially. Finding it in a newspaper in Saffron the next day, Cosmo was hardly affected, managing his way back to Hoenn and earning two badges before he grew bored of Gyms. After losing to Watson of Mauville, the old gym leader reccomended that he enroll in Lapras High. Figuring it'd be something to do, Cosmo decided to do so, purposely choosing the Battling degree to spite his dad.
Other:. I think I already mentioned his weird sleeping habits.
Pokemons: Arcanine (M, Mugen), Nidoking (M, Sanshiki), Jolteon (M, Rai), Dragonair (M, Hyourinmaru), Sneasal (M, Zangetsu)
Degree: Battling

[Dark-San]

Everyone have been accepted. Just posting to remind everyone that the RPG will start on Tuesday. If you haven't posted your character details yet, please do it by then since it would be easier for me to slot your character into his/her respective dorms.

Anyway chat topic is up at the RPG lounge.

Lapras Valley University chit- chat topic

All the plot details and your respective dorm details are all there.

[EngiMatikul]

Placing reservation as a female breeder just to show that I'm here, I guess.

[The_Missing_Link]

Name: Blair Mahoney
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Physical Desc.: She stands at 5'1 and is thin and sort of pale but is in good shape from training with her Pokemon. Her hair is a chocolate brown and lies straight down at her shoulders and her eyes are a mix of blue, gray and green. She wears a simple blue t-shirt with tight fitting jeans and regular sneakers
Personality: She's a kind but quiet person, more likely to be off training with her Pokemon rather than hang out at a party with her friends. If she's in the right mood though, she's rather outgoing and more apt to do something that doesn't involve Pokemon. She wants to learn at the university but have fun at the same time
Bf/Gf: Open
History: Born and raised in Mahogany Town, she's the daughter of breeders and granddaughter of Pryce, the leader of the Mahogany gym. With such an eclectic background, no one knew where she would end up but without much thought, she decided battling was her calling. Pryce immediately took her under his wing with the intention of her becoming the heir to the gym. He gave her a Snorunt at the age of eight, which she named Isis. After five hard years of training, her grandfather gave her a Dawn Stone, which was apparently hard to obtain but she figured he had connections in the Shinou region. She evolved Isis into a Froslass to give her a challenge, which was to combat the increase in type weaknesses. Over the past seven years, she has collected a wide variety of Pokemon and decided to apply to Lapras Valley University to test her skills and help her decide whether becoming the next Mahogany Town gym leader is what she really wants to do
Pokemon: Froslass (Isis), Charizard (Drake), Skorupi (Orion), Kirlia (Apollo), Vibrava (Ares)
Degree: Battling

[Prof. Jb Wolf]

Name: Ichigo Tsurugi Lloyd
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Physical Desc.: Stands at an average height of 5'10" with a lanky build Ichigo carries himself with a regal, almost noble bearing. His silvery-white hair falls to his chin and is usually swept back with only a few strands sticking out above his forehead. Eyes are a dark emerald green that seem all the brighter when in mid-speech. Features are sharp, almost hawklike with a firm, square jaw. Normally dresses in a fine white uniform trimmed in silver and wears a pair of white gloves on his hands. The Lloyd family crest, a two-head Ho-oh all in gold, is prominent on his left breast of the uniform jacket. He keeps his Capture Styler and PokeNav/Dex on his belt. Is almost never seen without his family sword, Wadou Ichimonji, in his hands or at his side.
Personality: A chivalrous man, Ichigo was raised to be a gentlemen among gentlemen. He is quite noble and well-mannered, but is prone to verbose and somewhat flowery speech. Has a zeal for justice and is always ready for a challenge. Combined with his supreme (some might say misguided) confidence in his own abilities, he tackles everything with great gusto especially the unknown. His favorite phrase is "I am the man who will stand a top of the _______________ world!". While somewhat lacking in the common sense department, Ichigo is well intentioned and is a skilled fighter/trainer.
Bf/Gf: None
History: The Lloyd family has been famous for generations as trainers, at least one member of the family always making to the top eight in the Kanto, Johto, and most recently the Hoenn regions. Initially, Ichigo led a sheltered life as the only child of two influential and wealthy trainers. Arrogant and insufferable, he never knew defeat in battle and often boasted loudly of his heritage. This changed when he was fourteen while on vacation in the island region of Fiore. His uncle, a Pokemon Ranger, disgusted with his overbearing attitude, challenged Ichigo to a battle. If he lost, Ichigo would have to be trained by him until he thought he was good enough to hold the Lloyd family name. He eagerly accepted and was promptly defeated. For the next five years, his uncle put him through rigorous training where he gained a new sense of honor and duty. Finally satisfied, but still somewhat worried about him, his uncle sent him off to Lapras University, specifically so his cousin Namie would watch out for him (or be his 'advisor' as Ichigo thinks of it.)
Other: Has an abiding love for simple, home cooked meals, having called it 'the food of the Gods'. His sword is more than just for show, as he is quite adept with it, but prefers to let his Pokemon battle with/for him. He carries no Pokeballs, having grown a distaste for them, all of his Pokemon following him because they have been impressed by his sense of justice or, in Hakuoro's case, because they have nothing better to do.
Pokemon: Agni (Charizard M), Kagara (Marowak F), Itsuki (Espeon M), Ayame (Gardevoir F), Hakuoro (Dragonair M), Dan (Himonchan M)
Degree: Battling

[Hyperness is a Good Thing]

Please excuse the brevity...feeling overly stuffed from lunch and very lethargic.

EDIT: changed the history a bit because I just realised it was quite similiar to everyone above me in terms of parentage pedigree =P

Name: Aislin Vadasy
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Physical Desc.: Aislin is of middling height, around 5"4, with shoulder length gold blonde hair, layered with a slight fringe at the front, and a pale complexion that is extremely susceptible to freckles. She tends to dress very casually, jeans and a t-shirt being her norm, and flip flops or sneakers on her feet. Her ears are heavily pierced, and she adores trying out all sorts of weird earrings. Besides that, she does not wear any other type of jewelry or ornamentation. Her most noticeable feature is her eyes, which are a rather odd shade of golden brown, with larger irises than usual, something which many people find weird.
Personality: She tends to give the impression of well meaning confusion and tries very hard to be genial and nice, but messes things up with a rather blunt honesty, and too often says what she thinks before thinking. She dislikes arrogance, vanity and excessive pride in general, and can be quite outspoken against it. Other than that, she normally gets along well with other people. However, her most exasperating personality trait is that she occasionally lapses into dreamy reveries and ignores everything around her, even if she is being talked to - quite irritating if you're trying to tell her something important, but she always apologises if you yell at her for doing that. Her plus points include she doesn't get angry easily, and is impervious to sarcasm. She is also a hard worker and can be very determined if she is serious about what she's attempting to do.
Bf/Gf: None (all of us are unattached, lol)
History: Growing up in a loving family with two rather protective older brothers(Alyx and Alaysdair), she's basically been sheltered and pampered her whole life. She was saved from being a whiny brat by her own common sense, but may come across as a little naive. Her father is a skilled computer programmer while her mother is a famous actress. Her brothers are both doctors, one to humans, the other to Pokemons. She decided to go to Lapras University and major in Contest because it sounded novel and interesting. All her Pokemon were trained and raised by herself, and so she's very attached to every single one of them. Her absolute favourite is Hratchchouhi, given to her by her grandfather, also named by him. Her grandfather was a small time breeder who got wealthy on a windfall many years ago due to a sudden high demand on the Pokemon he was breeding (Pichus and Pikachus) due to the cartoon serialisation of the adventures of renowned Pokemon Trainer, Ash Ketchum. Thanks to this, her family is very well off, and she is used to a comfortable life.
Other: She loves sweet things especially chocolate. Can be in a state of near comatose exhilaration if fed too much of that yummy brown stuff. Also goes high if she obtains any new unusual earrings.
Pokemons:
Houndoom(♀) – Hracthchouhi(Cho-cho)
Gallade(♂) - Ennio
Staravia(♀) - Thurayya
Glaceon(♂) - Zopyros
Gabite(♂) - Sverrir

Name: Namie Lloyd

Age: 19

Gender: Female

Physical Desc.: Namie's about 5'6" in height, and interestingly thin. Her complexion is perfectly normal and nothing much to speak of, except that she has a small mole near her right eye. Her eyes are a thoughtful sort of green. Hair-wise, it's long, dark, washed-out blonde, and separated into two thick braids. The braids are only done up to a third of the hair's actual length, being pinned to the sides of her head and the remaining hair looped around to form double ponytails. She sometimes plaits it into a single 'thirdway-braid' and clips it up in a chignon for a more elegant look.
She's rather fashion-conscious, and as such owns a variety of different clothes. Her usual outfits waver between simple sleeveless tops and mid-thigh skirts in soft wrinkled cotton or silk, or alternatively a oversize off-the-shoulder woolen sweater-dress over capri-length tights. She accessorizes accordingly, although a constant feature of her wardrobe is a black rope-bracelet given to her by her brother, with a guitar pick threaded through it reading 'currently disobeying my parents - Ken to Mie xx'.

Personality: A very careful listener, Namie is acutely tuned towards others' perceptions of themselves and the world around them. She's not above making dry, mildly cynical observations about them. Often, she'll remember what someone said about something, and repeat it at the most unconventional times, leading acquaintances to believe that she has a twisted sense of humour. Other times, she can be overwhelmingly kind, considerate and gentle. According to her, it apparently just depends on the situation.
She is not a natural battler. She is very content to sit on the sidelines and punctuate other people's battles with offhand comments. Regarding breeding, she introduces herself foremostly as a listener and observationist (she prefers the made-up word to plain old observer), rather than a breeder.
She has a propensity to be horrendously reasonable and see things from everybody's point of view, and should not be argued with: the argument would fizzle out into an agreement.

Bf/Gf: None.

History: Namie is the middle child in a family of impeccably pedigreed breeders based in Violet City; she has a little brother, Ryo. Her older brother Ken, who did not want any of the obligations normally taken on by the eldest child, ran away to be a rock star (don't ask) and is indeed making it big in Goldenrod. Because of this, Namie had to shoulder the responsibility of a top-notch breeding education, as per family tradition. She doesn't resent her brother in any way for this, however, and is a fan of his band.
Since she was young, Pokemon have tended to gravitate to Namie, in their search for someone who can make it all better, somehow, some way; someone who will listen to them. In certain small ways she can sense what a particular Pokemon is thinking or feeling, although this is mostly due to experience and keen monitoring of the creature's mannerisms. Of her roster of Pokemon, the one she has had longest is Nishikaze the Haunter, for nearly a decade since she met him in the tower of Bellsprouts mulling gloomily over an energetic painting of said plants dancing in a row.
The Lloyd family is large and sprawling, with scions and descendants all over much of the Pokemon world. Her particular branch of the Lloyd line specializes in breeding only the best Pokemon for the heirs of the main Lloyd house to use as partners, whether in contests or battles.
Has never met Ichigo Tsurugi Lloyd before, despite their being cousins and him being her new charge.
(insert sentence here re: Box's character)

Other: Possesses an excellent memory, almost to the point of being eidetic. She can converse quite fluently with Nishikaze, as the Haunter is psychically inclined, and often does.

Pokemon: Male Haunter (Nishikaze), male Togetic (Jules on normal days/Julie when he's feeling pretty/Julia on contest days), female Gible/Fukamaru (Fluffy), female Rapidash (Alix), female Mamoswine/Manmu (Marmora), male Flaafy (Haakon)

Name: Vincent "Slick Vince" Lancaster
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Physical Desc.: Vince is a dwarf, a mere meter in height and weighing only 90 pounds. He has short red hair and a goatee of the same color, piercing brown eyes hidden behind black shades, and, despite his small size, surprisingly well-developed muscles. He usually wears a long-sleeved black shirt under a brown vest, navy jeans, and white sneakers with blue tongues and soles. Holding his pants up is a black belt with six studs around it; between each pair of studs is a single Pokeball.
Personality: This spry little guy is, in one word, competitive. He's mouthy, determined, and not shy about slinging insults at those who pester him, especially on his size. As competitive as he is, though, he's a kind person at heart and won't back down from any opponent or challenge.
Bf/Gf: Open.
History: Vince grew up in New Bark Town; as a child, he was picked on frequently for his small size, not that he ever let it bother him - anyone who insulted him too much got quite a nasty surprise from the little spitfire, usually in the form of a punch in the groin and/or a stinging series of insults. At the age of ten, Vince went for his Trainer's License, receiving a Torchic from Professor Birch and going on a quest around Hoenn; within three short years, he'd earned no less than twenty Badges from all across Hoenn, Johto, and Shinno. At the age of 15, he bested the Elite Four and became a Pokemon League Champion, but he still wasn't satisfied; he continued battling Gym Leaders until he eventually was accepted into Lapras Valley University. His skills were so impressive, he was accepted into the University a year early.
Other: He hates losing only because he does so so infrequently.
Pokemon:
-Blaziken (M) "Suzaku"
-Kingdra (F) "Seiryu"
-Electivire (M) "Byakko"

[EngiMatikul]

Name: Kuriko Shiamari
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Appearance: Around 5'3" with a fairly small figure. Her hair is long and straight, reaching about to her waist and has a color of a dark, mossy green. She has her bangs longer on the side of her head, reaching about the end of chin, while shorter in front, cut just above her eyes so she can see. Her eyes are a vivid yet deep colored navy blue, and depending on the situation her stare can look significantly cute or uncomfortably intimidating.
She typically wears semi-casual clothes, fit with a short sleeved blouse and one of those business skirts/dresses that businesswomen wear (). She has long white stockings and wears high heels. In a way, it seems as if she wants to appear mature despite that she isn't quite there yet, physically...
During her work hours she wears a nurse outfit similar to Nurse Joy but also occasionally is seen with a lab coat. Often seen with a clipboard while at work.
Personality: Varies significantly between at work and everywhere else. During work she is alarmingly kind and considerate to anyone who comes in and approaches her, generously giving treatments and checking on the status of their pokemon. Although she is not the main nurse of the Pokemon Center, she is still very well versed in healing and treatment of pokemon so many people come to her for checkups.
Outside of her work, though, she is a completely different person. Quiet voiced and rarely giving care to others, she is always seen with a book as if she is studiously studying something and does not often respond if someone is talking to her. This leads to many people believing that the Kuriko in the Pokemon Center and the one on campus are two completely different people. She is, however, somewhat of a walking Pokemon Center in that she and her pokemon have specialty in treating injured pokemon and always has a first aid kit around. She will definately help out a pokemon in need, but instead of the kindness she shows at the Pokemon Center she usually glares coldly at the trainer requesting help and gives them the impression that implies "Don't ever do this to your pokemon again".
While at work she will always regard every person equally and does not acknowledge if she knows a person or not. Usually.
She seems somewhat more open to Namie and does converse with her at times.
Bf/Gf: What?
History: She comes from a family that has expertise in pharmacology and herbal treatments, and hence is quite skilled in providing medical aid to anyone in need, pokemon and human alike. Her family typically works in a more traditional-style environment, hence why she isn't just another Nurse Joy clone, but she recently has become more interested in modern day techniques and actually seeks to apply her knowledge of traditional medicine to the newer technological and biological advances in Pokemon pharmacology. Her ultimate desire may be to understand the concepts of Pokemon genetic engineering, but since currently this is illegal, much less not taught anywhere one can easily publicly access, she decides to understand the concepts of what various items and drugs can affect pokemon, whether it be health status (healing items), stamina and strength (steroids), or even phenotypic and possibly genetic modification (TMs and HMs). Typically she will take these items and, using some of her other knowledge, make them more effective (ie a potion heals more life with some mysterious herbs she may have put into them ).
In order to further her understanding she needed to goto a rather renowned education facility, and hence she arrives at this university. Since breeding is the closest thing to her interest, she selected that as her major. It also coincides with Namie's major, and, being the cousin of Namie's maternal side, Kuriko and Namie have actually met up during childhood. This is, hence, why she seems to trust Namie more than anyone else.
Other: Kuriko is to Pharmacology as Namie is to Psychiatric Therapy. She understands a variety of berries, items, and drugs and also knows how to make them more effective. And, as if it wasn't implied already, she works at the local Pokemon Center as an assistant nurse and undergraduate researcher (and you thought Pokemon Centers were only for healing pokemon!).
Pokemon: Female Ferret (Kars), Male Spinarak (Phaus), Female Paras (Sull), Male Natu (Nitres), Male Masquarain (Oxi). Regarding Natu: He always stays outside of his pokeball, and always seems to be on Kuriko's shoulder staring at something. Usually if Kuriko doesn't give a person her attention, her Natu will stare and look as if he was listening intently to him/her. :p

Name: Gavin Wynder
Age: 19

Physical Desc.: Short Brown hair, blue eyes, pretty average. Fit but not overly athletic build. Stands about 6ft 2 and wears blue jeans with a Black T-shirt. Black fingerless gloves finish off the look.
Personality: Pretty friendly guy. Likes company but prefers working alone. When in groups hes the follower. Doesnt like taking the initiative incase anyone is offended or disagrees with him. Very loyal to those he does call a freind but expects the same from them.
Bf/Gf: None
History: Grew up on a Fire Type Ranch out in the country in the Kanto Region. Spent many years wandering and training like most youngsters and entered a number of contests and tournaments. Decided that, if he was to become the best he would have to learn from as many sources as possible and not just the stuff he picked up on his travels so decided to enroll at the college. His family have a long standing and famous history as Fire type breeders and as such knows a great deal about this type but doesnt like to overly specialise.
Other: Due to his background can sometimes be a little cocky and show-off infront of the Breeding students. Especially in relation to fire types.

[Bulbasaur4]

Name: Rywen Oro (Heh… seem slightly familiar? WEE FOR REINCARNATE YUAR!)

Age: 19

Gender: Male

Physical Desc.: (I have a head shot of him, but I'll add that later.) Rywen stands about 6'3 with a rather athletic build. He has broad shoulders that help create his "v" build, which is aided by his smaller torso. His face has an elegant look about it, having a smooth jaw line and slightly prominent cheekbones. Whisping, slightly messy auburn hair is upon his head, occasionally having a few strands covering his eyes (but like most anime characters, the wind usually keeps it from doing that... or the defied law of gravity.) He has striking emerald-green eyes with only a few small flecks of yellow within them. His skin is slightly tan from his outside dojo training. Despite his toned muscular appearance, he has a very graceful air and stance about him and his hands (to the touch and movement) are precise and delicate.

Personality: Rywen’s demeanor perhaps could be described as elegantly playful. He does have a calm, intelligent demeanor when it comes to serious business and things that require focus. However, he likes to be optimistic and the holder of a gentle smile. He would be what one would call a gentleman, although his modesty wouldn’t allow him to recognize that. While he is fairly outgoing and likes to help others (especially when it comes to ‘loosening up’), he can be a little bit lacking in common sense.

Bf/Gf: He currently has none. Probably because he doesn’t pick up on things.

History: Rywen lived all of his main life on the island of Fiore. The Oro family had a long history of owning an infamous pokemon spa on the island. Visitors would bring their pokemon to the spa so that they could be pampered along with their owners. Rywen’s father was a famous pokemon contester, but decided to retire early when he fell in love with Rywen’s mother. The two then moved to the vacation island and decided to create the spa in order to not only pamper pokemon, but help them raise their abilities through various healthy treatments.
Rywen helped out his family and picked up many remedies from the trade. His widowed Aunt and Grandfather also owned a dojo not too far from the spa location. Being a slightly ambitious and rowdy boy, Rywen would often make visits to the dojo and train under his grandfather. Often Rywen would spar visitors, using his defense to exploit their offensive weaknesses. Of course he was not great to start out with, but eventually he became extremely apt at his grandfather’s art. Still, besides that passion was his passion for cooking- which he learned at the spa not only for pokemon, but for humans as well. Balancing the two seemed to be tricky, but Rywen managed it somehow. Strangely, he takes more pride in his cooking since he now doesn’t bother to show off his fighting prowess without a need.
It might be noted that during this time, Rywen was friends with Ichigo Llyod. When Ichigo arrived at the island, Rywen and him seemed to get along perfectly well. The two seemed eerily similar, especially in their honorable ways and their affinity for a lack of what most would see as ‘common’ sense. Being pretty much the only two males of their age and personality, it was easy for them to bond. Upon finding out about Ichigo’s leave for Lapras Valley High, Rywen’s parents thought it would be a good idea for Rywen to further his education as well and they sent him packing.

Other: Rywen is a good cook and is a sucker for sweets. He especially loves strawberry jam. His fighting style is a mix of the Judo discipline and the battling style of caeporia- but fiercer.

[darktyranitar]

Name: Alan Bradley
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Physical Description: Alan stands at about 5’6”, with medium built, with a little clump of fat around his stomach (though not very noticeable). His dark green eyes are usually in a droop, his hair is a mass of tangle, and his beard is unshaved – showing that he didn’t care much of his appearance.
He rarely changed his t-shirt (preferring to keep it for two day or more, and he used to wear the same t-shirt for a week), and changed his jeans even more rarely. From the torn and the colour of dirt on the legs of the jeans, and the faded colour of the jeans, it can be assumed that he has been wearing the jeans for a very long time.
Personality: Alan is a man of peace (but is usually called coward), usually choosing to excuse himself should any potential trouble occur. He is quite a patient guy. He doesn’t really participate in a Pokemon battle, but might go for a round or two if you persuade him hard enough (or you taunt him hard enough).
Bf/Gf: None. Any taker?
History: Alan had lived in Fuschia city ever since the day he was born. During his 10th birthday he – like any good 10 years old would do – went for a journey. His father had made a bet that he’d quit Pokemon training in less than three month – stating that he does not has what it takes to be a trainer. He took the bet, agreeing that he’ll never go for another journey should he quit.
He quitted in a month time. He couldn’t take the pressure and the loneliness of travelling alone, far away from home. Defeated, he went back home, where he then helped his dad with Pokemon breeding.
Being close to the Safari Zone is a good thing, since there is a lot of Pokemon that he and his dad could raise up for breeding purpose. Eventually, he got himself a Rhyhorn (from the Safari Zone) and a Magnemite (one of his dad friend’s gave it to him), and they evolved a few years after that. He was quite happy that he is breeding Pokemon. Life was good at that time.
During his 18th birthday, his Tangela – the one that he got as a starter – evolved, and he was really happy about it (he found the form better than Tangela’s). A few day after that, he received a letter from the Lapras Valley University.
Other: He brought a few hentai books, and he is very secretive about it (only read it during the middle of the night).
Pokemons: Magneton, Rhydon (F), Tangrowth (M) (might put nickname)

I hope I'm not too late

Name
Samuel Scry

Age
20

Gender
Male

Physical Desc.
Here is a good picture of him. Sam is somewhat attractive; he keeps himself clean at all times. He wears nothing but black suits and colored dress shirts, though on cold days he does have a large, black suitcoat. He has an assortment of ties, which he is very fond of. Sam sports a very western-style, dark blond haircut that would be considered illegal in Iran.

Personality
Samuel is incredibly obsessive compulsive about everything around him, which affects his attitude and actions a lot. Mostly, Sam just worries far too much about everything ("P-p-p-please don't touch that, you d-d-d-don't know where that's b-b-b-b-been!")

He usually just keeps to himself, however his natural obsessive compulsion about things tend to attract certain individuals towards him, whether they are curious about his actions, or if they simply want to mess with him. Don't confuse Sam with a loner, he does enjoy company; he just has a hard time fitting in at a party, since he's usually the one sweeping up the broken glass, or vacuuming the spilt drink, or washing the glasses, or taking out the garbage... not just because he's nice, but because it bothers him tremendously.

Sam's biggest downfall is his lack of confidence within himself. He has great Pokemon who believe in their trainer, but the only thing that keeps Sam from the Elite Four is his self-confidence.

Bf/Gf
It's rough to try and keep a relationship with Sam when he points out every single dirty thing around you, or on you.

History
Samuel Scry grew up in the small yet famous town known as Pallet Town. Mr. Scry was a researcher at the old Pallet Town research facility, so naturally Sam grew up knowing a thing or two about Pokemon. Sam received his very first two Pokemon, Pidgey and Machop, when he was very young. As Sam grew older and more experienced, he learned that he simply couldn't stand the lake (bacteria!) So, his father managed to purchase a fine Lapras for Sam.

When Sam turned 14, he decided that he wanted to travel and try to overcome his obsessive compulsive behavior. So, Mr. Scry gave Sam his last present; a Bagon.

Sam's travels took him all over Kanto, where he earned a few gym badges. His Machop evolved into Machoke, and Pidgey grew to be a beautiful Pidgeot. Bagon evolved into Shelgon early, and only after his last gym badge did it become the powerful Salamence. About halfway through his travels, Sam managed to pick up a Snorlax (lucky break.)

By the age of 20, Sam was facing the gym leader for the Volcano Badge. However, the battle had barely started before Sam surrendered. The gym leader was taken aback, but soon realized that Sam had a confidence issue. He knew that Sam would never make it as a Pokemon Master without the proper training. So, sensing potential in Sam, the gym leader enrolled Sam into the Lapras Valley University.

About a week before departing for the University, Sam asked his friends back at home to pick up a sixth Pokemon to complete his team. His friends, knowing full well of Sam's complete distaste for disgusting Pokemon, sent him a Muk.

Other
Sam has a bit of a stutter when he talks.
