She has never been afraid to speak her mind for fear of hurting someone’s feelings and she isn’t above tossing a snarky remark or two when/if the situation calls for it. The majority of her repertoire consists of sarcastic comments or jokes accompanied by a sardonic smirk or raising of an eyebrow. She has been called cold more than a few times, but only because has extremely selective empathy, being that she cannot bring herself to understand the ridiculous reasons which cause a great deal of upset and alarm to most people. Crying at the drop of a hat is simply annoying and a waste of the human body’s functions in her opinion. Tear glands exist for the purpose of keeping one’s eyes moist to prevent them drying out, not to stream torrents of water down one’s face because of silly things. As a firm believer of independence, Iris absolutely loathes damsels in distress. She’s quite determined and headstrong when it comes to accomplishing tasks.

[color=cc1d00]Height/Weight:[/color] 1.8m (5'9)/63kg (139lbs) [color=cc1d00]History:[/color] Iris was born in the Almia region where the best Pokemon Rangers are born and revered as the 'trainers' of the land. Her parents were both talented and well respected Rangers in that region, always being sent on world saving missions that kept the pair far away from home for long periods of time. This caused Iris to have a rather lonely life, only living with her grandparents to look after her for most of it. Though her parents did well in keeping in touch, writing letters to her and such, their absence hurt her more than she would ever let anyone know. To follow in their footsteps, she attended the Ranger School there and would have passes, only to be interrupted by the unfortunate deaths of her grandparents in a fire that burned down their home. At the young age of 15, she was forced to move to a completely different region to stay where her parents thought she would be better off. She stayed with them, still mostly alone at home, until she turned 18 and decided she would pursue becoming a trainer. Her skills she learned as a Ranger she believes will help her become a better trainer who will, eventually, become as well respected as her parents are. She only has one Pokemon so far, a Beldum who she met during her time in Almia and brought with her during the move. The two are very close and because of this, she has taken a liking to Steel-Type pokemon. She plans to raise/partner with only those types.
