Name: Brendan Braize
Age: 18
Appearance:
Powers:
Brendan Braize is a burst warrior. This means he can fuse with a pokémon using a Burst Heart, gaining its powers and immunities while increasing his physical and defensive strengths. Since Brendan had to use his own fighting skill, he has had considerable combat training.
Weaknesses:
Extra vulnerable to attacks super effective to the type of the pokémon he's fused with. Brendan is an overcautious little shit, preferring to observe a battle before actually fusing with one of his pokémon in order to make sure he uses the most advantageous one. This leaves him vulnerable until he does fuse however.

Age: 18
Appearance:
In burst mode, Brendan keeps his humanoid figure, but his features become considerably more like the pokemon he's fused with (Natural armor, Size, Bulk, Extra limbs). Most notably, rather than change his facial features to the pokémon's he wears a mask or helmet resembling the pokémon's head.

Brendan is an only child from a small village near the site of an ancient battlefield. His father left them when he was young, forcing his mother to raise him alone. One day, when Brendan -14 at the time- was taking a walk an earthquake took place, Brendan was unharmed but he discovered a tear in the ground. The earthquake had unearthed a part of the ancient battlefield. Intrigued, Brendan decided to investigate the unearthed site. This is where he found his first Burst Heart, in the crystal he saw a figure accurately resembling Golisopod. He kept it with him as a good luck charm, unaware of his power.
A month passed peacefully when suddenly a criminal appeared in the town. He took a hostage and told the villagers to hide him and tell the peace-guard -which could be seen on the horizon- they hadn't seen him. Brendan's wish for power to save the hostage activated his burst heart fusing him with Golisopod. Using Golisopod's strength he managed to save the hostage and he turned the defeated criminal in to the peace-guard.
Using his newfound power, Brendan decided to embark on a journey, saying goodbye to his mother and taking off. On this journey he befriended several burst user, a girl and 2 males, one notably older than the other.
After a few weeks of travel they were unfortunate enough to run into a bandit raiding party, they were eventually able to defeat the army using their burst powers, but not without casualties. His 2 male companions had died in the battle, Brendan and his remaining companion each took one of their burst hearts and (albeit mournfully) and headed to the next town, where they would stay and mourn for a few days.
Misfortune seemed attracted to the pair however as one day, at the bar a shady fellow picked a fight with them. They thought they would quickly give the guy a beating and head back, but this plan changed a bit as this man too was revealed to be a burst warrior. He had a Zoroark burst heart and Zoroark's speed proved to be an issue for the pair, though they eventually (but barely) managed to defeat the man and take his burst heart.
The two got over their loss and realized there was no point in just moping around. They traveled to the next town, but when they were almost there they were struck with the unfortunate sight of the town on fire so they rushed over. As if their luck wasn't bad enough yet, it wasn't just a barbecue-fire, as it turned out to be a pyromaniac burst warrior using the Marowak (Alolan) burst heart. The two of them using Golisopod and Carracosta subdued the fire while fighting the pyromaniac, but the diversion of attention as well as the wounds from the battle against the man in the previous town proved fatal for Brendan's female companion.
Brendan -now the only one left from his group- collected his previous companions' burst hearts and once more returned to fight the pyromaniac. A quick duel settled the fight as Brendan removed the guy's head after a few strikes. He collected the pyromaniac's -and his sixth- burst heart and went back to aiding the villagers with putting out the fire.
Brendan returned to his hometown where he focused on getting stronger so he wouldn't have to lose anyone again. 9 days before he would turn 18 his hometown was once more attacked, this time however by creatures the likes of which he had never seen before--Demons. He managed to clear wave after wave, but more just kept coming from a portal in the sky. About to be defeated -3 days later- he was pleasantly surprised by an odd-looking stranger coming to his rescue. Together they sealed the portal and the mysterious stranger introduced himself as a representative of the alliance and managed to recruit Brendan. Brendan is fairly new at the alliance but has proven to be a valuable asset in the few missions he has completed.
