While her mother was content with a simple life at home now, her father was still deeply interested in Mystery Dungeons, having become a Dungeon Researcher in his spare time. He shared many tales with Ember about his time with the Guild, which left a strong imprint on the young Cyndaquil. Her memories of him end there, however, as barely even half a year after she had been born, her father went missing when looking into the possibility of a new dungeon being located near Folio Town. All the Guild managed to recover was his Treasure Bag. This weighed heavily on the family, and neither ever truly got past the grief. Ember, now without a strong father figure, began hanging out with what many would call the bad crowd. They weren't criminals by any means, but they weren't the best children in town that was for sure. Thankfully, many of her fathers brief teachings still remained in her memory, and she had many falling outs with her so called friends. Some way or another, though, she would find her way back to them. When she one day evolved into Quilava, she was unsure about her new form and abilities. She hated the fact that she was no longer small enough to fit into tiny gaps as she had been able to before, but with her evolution came a wake up call to her senses. She watched as her 'friends' often bullied other Pokemon, one in particular: A Bayleef named Selena. One day in town square, when she was trying to help an injured Guild Member, the leader of their group named Bruce finally crossed the line when he scared her off. With heated words she left in search of the skittish Grass Type. When she caught up with her, it was an awkward meeting, as to be expected. However, the two simply talked, and the more they talked, the calmer and closer they seemed to become. She finally coaxed the Bayleef into coming back to town, but the two stopped when they met up with two Pokemon, one of which had stood up for Selena. They were a Totodile named Devon and a Shiny Kirlia named Lilisette. The group became fast friends. When she found out that Devon was actually a Human sent to save their world, Ember jumped at the chance to be on a team with him, along with Selena and Lilisette. Together, they formed Team Horizon, ready to face whatever the world would throw at them. At least that's what Ember believed. [b]Personality[/b]: As a Cyndaquil she was often a troublemaker hanging out with the wrong crowds. She was often defiant with her mother after her father's disappearance, and relationships were very strained. Upon her evolution, however, she wised up rather drastically. She realized what she had been doing, and made amends with those she had strained ties with. She even tried to set her friends on the right path, which didn't work. She tends to be a act first think later kind of Pokemon, leading her to be headstrong and reckless from time to time. She also has very little training or experience in exploring, but doesn't dampen her enthusiasm. She's normally an optimist, and it takes a very dark and bleak situation to make her stop believing in her friends.
