[b]History[/b]:  Mermes was raised by a colony of Magikarp on the Water Continent ever since she was young.  The Shiny Magikarp that adopted her found her on the shoreline of the lake with no knowledge how she got there, and the Buizel was too young at the time to remember.
Regardless, Mermes imprinted on the Magikarp and while it took a while, the colony eventually considered her one of their own.  For the past few years, the Buizel would go from beyond the pond for a while to find all kinds of items and trinkets.  Though she was always careful, her mother taught her how Flying-type Pokemon love to snatch up Magikarp since they're easy prey to them.  As a result, when the Buizel had to go to places with a lot of Pokemon outside of the lake, the Buizel learned to make herself seem as unassuming as possible.
At one point, Mermes heard of a guild on the Grass Continent known as the Valiant Guild.  The Buizel always heard that the teams that work there have some interesting items that she’s curious about trading for, though she's nervous about doing so.  Despite her apprehensiveness, with her now fully-evolved mother’s permission, Mermes has come all the way to the Grass Continent, but she had no idea what was in store for her there...


[b]Personality[/b]:  Mermes is a shy Buizel that tries not to pop out too much, mostly learned behavior that was done to keep one from being snatched up from prey.  She’s not the best at social interaction, often stumbling on her own words and forgetting what she was going to say for a moment mid-sentence, and has some peculiar mannerisms such as jumping everywhere despite knowing how to walk.  Mermes has an explorative personality as she loves finding items, and is known to be a bit of a hoarder.  She’ll be willing to trade items with you.  However, expect it to be an extremely awkward exchange, as Mermes pictures it to go perfectly well in her head, but it usually results in either the exchange to go in near silence or for her to run away with her tail between her legs if she's doing the trade with a predatory Pokemon, most notably if it's with a Flying-type Pokemon. She won’t sell her items for Poke and she looks for trades she considers equal, like a Berry for another Berry.

[b]Important Items[/b]:  Has a big bag which she carries items in, and has a “Scale of Rage”, which is just an ordinary blue quartz in a shape that resembles a Gyarados scale.

[b]Notes[/b]:  Kind of has a thing going on where she trades with other player characters and other NPCs.  She’s not going to have OP items right off the bat, goodness no, but she’s going to have some useful items on her some may consider useful, like Berries and Orbs.
