[@Fox of Spades] here we are, a lovely character for everyone to enjoy XD [hider=Willow] Appearance: [img]http://www.wallpaperup.com/uploads/wallpapers/2015/02/09/616689/big_thumb_d0b7782d5ca5ad1b7d60bcd4e4de2a21.jpg[/img] Name: Willow Age: 20 Personality: Crafty and clever, she is more concerned about survival than anything else. She is out for herself and will not hesitate to trample anyone who gets in her way. She can be a bit of a handful, and tends to get uncomfortable around large crowds of people. Because she lived for so long around wild pokemon she tends to notice and recognize behaviors of pokemon and is able to roughly estimate how they are feeling. She can be rather violent at times, and enjoys roughhousing as a sign of affection. She seems to have adopted pokemon-like behaviors due to her time living with them in the woods. As a result of her stint in the woods she has trouble discerning human emotions, and speaking to other humans in general. Biography: She was born and raised by her mother in petalburg woods. Her mother was a free spirited hippie like person who thought people should live with pokemon in harmony. So from a young age, she taught her daughter how to live off the land beside Pokemon. Her mother also taught her how to treat small wounds pokemon would receive from trainers who had entered the woods and battled against them. However, her mother died when she was eight, leaving Willow alone in a forest of wild Pokemon. Willow quickly had to learn to survive on her own, using the little equipment her mother had left her when she died, most notably a book all about survival. Due to the excellent training she had received from her mother, Willow managed to scrape by, teaching herself to climb trees and disguise her scent with the corpses of dead pokemon. However, she was soon stalked by a pack of Zorua living in the woods. Not wanting to die, Willow fashioned several spears, and thrust one directly into the chest of one of the wild Zorua. Apparently, she struck the alpha of the pack, which caused the others to separate through the woods. Instead of letting the creature die, Willow slowly nursed it back to health, sharing what little food and water she could scavenge with the creature until it was better. Willow even protected Zorua when several Mightyena attempted to kill her. From then on, the Zorua remained with Willow as her hunting partner, and would often bring her dead pokemon so the two could share a meal. Hunting with Willow eventually caused the Zorua to evolve into a Zoroark. Through their exploits, they befriended a Shroomish as well. She was discovered living in Petalburg woods by a traveler, and convinced by the man to come with him into the city. Here she was clothed and fed normal food, and introduced into a world of people. Willow was immensely curious about the strange life of these humans, which was not like her's at all. She didn't like the noise and bustle, but the idea that food was everywhere really drew her attention. However, after spending close to a year in the human settlement, Willow decided it was time to move on. Instead of returning to her home in Petalburg Woods, she decided it was time to move elsewhere. She wanted to continue to see new things and explore new places. Along her way, she picked up a few allies. (this will be elaborated on Via Rp, and in the pokemon's apps) Pokemon Team: [hider=Kali] [color=ed1c24]Zoroark[/color] [img]http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/powerlisting/images/0/08/Zoroark.gif/revision/latest?cb=20150107014202[/img] Gender: Female Personality: Easily the most loyal of Willow's companions, Kali is the first to have helped Willow. She is extremely overprotective of Willow and her team mates and will attack anyone she thinks might pose a threat. With her abilities of illusion, she will often scare people away taking on the form of a more threatening pokemon. if she is upset she will use her illusionary powers to create her enemy's worst fear and replay it in that person's mind repeatedly until they go mad. She appears to be able to speak to humans using her illusionary powers. Apparently she can use her illusions to take the form of a human as well, which she will sometimes do to evade capture.

Its unknown why this pokemon decided to follow Willow on her journey, as it just perched on her head one day for no apparent reason. She is the newest addition to Willow's team. [/hider] [hider=Castiel] [color=a36209]Kabutops[/color] [img]http://pa1.narvii.com/5759/ebdfcbf1e86c58b1a59421af510a6cf26a4ef6e2_hq.gif[/img] Gender: Male Personality: Violent and abnormally aggressive, this pokemon started following Willow around because it decided Fury was its rival. It will often attempt to initiate combat with him, which due to its sharpened scythes can be extremely deadly and dangerous for everyone nearby. So far it has been defeated twice by Fury, and subsequently nursed back to health by Willow each time. This has made him gain a grudging respect for the young woman. He is now waiting to bide its time for a day when it can defeat Fury. Is body is littered with scars, and it has an unknown origin.

Initially started following Willow after she fed him, and now likes to stay with her because she brings him to places where he can burn more things. Likes to ride on Castiel's back for some reason. [/hider] [hider=Fury] [color=8dc73f]Breloom[/color] [img]https://45.media.tumblr.com/cd42da28705bb5d802cad13eebcb068f/tumblr_nuy5xrQcgC1scncwdo1_500.gif[/img] Gender:Male Personality: The second pokemon who joined Willow when she was younger. Since it was poisonous, the two could not have eaten the creature anyways, so it was kept tied up for a short time and they used its spores to hunt other sources of food. After they let him go, Fury decided to stay. Probably because he had developed a small crush on Kali. He is actually one of the more 'normal' pokemon on Willow's team and is openly friendly to strangers. However, if he manages to hug someone, he might accidentally scatter spores on them, so be wary. [/hider] Inventory: one very tattered book on survival, a hunting knife, flint and tinder, a tattered backpack with three self-made healing salves folded up in protective leaves (one salve is for healing poison, another is for burns, and the third is for keeping out infection). Each salve can be used three times before she will need to make more, and are effective on both trainers and their pokemon. She also has an old canteen filled with water, six feet of paracord, and a moth-eaten beige sheet with tears in it. (the sheet used to be white at one point) Extra: Willow thinks pokeballs are disgusting and relying on them to catch Pokemon is essentially making each Pokemon her slave. However, considering people might try to capture her friends, she had no choice but to catch each pokemon to keep them safe. Willow offers them freedom any time they wish. She allows her pokemon to come and go as they please in and out of their pokeballs. Sometimes she lets them out of their pokeball and allows them to wander without her for as long as they please. She does not like to rely on her pokemon's abilities and will often attempt to work her way around a situation without asking for their help. Since she believes pokemon are more of companions or friends, she does not give them orders, instead politely asking them to help if she needs it. The only pokemon consistently NEVER in its pokeball is Kali. Kali straight up refuses to ever enter her ball, as she doesn't want to leave Willow to fight on her own.
