She has ginger hair, and light blue eyes. She also has a pair of scars, one from her chosen work, and one from when she was a child. Both scars can be seen on her right arm, although the more recent one is much closer to her hand than the older one. Zella is often seen wearing [url=https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ac/50/05/ac500523c2fddb7291805be7caec5ba1.jpg]a simple attire[/url]. She also carries on her person a leather side bag, one which appears to be relatively big. She also has a single dagger sheath that she hangs on her belt, which carries both daggers. Personality: Zella is a kind, and a bit shy at first. She has a harder time interacting with people, and will retreat from conversations if she feels like something is becoming too much. At the same time, however, she does not have that problem with pokemon, and always appear curious by them, regardless if she knows the owner or not. When it comes to fighting, Zella will always look for making sure everyone is in good shape. If they need treatment, she will rush over without a second thought. If a pokemon requires a potion to heal, she will work on producing one as fast as possible. If she needs to fight herself, however, she will normally be on the defensive side. Zella has little confidence in her own fighting skills, and prefer to run away over actually fight, if it is possible. Short Biography: Born to a couple of tanners in Nerida, Zella had a rather rough childhood growing up. From a young age she was expected to aid her parents in their business, and was mostly given tasks of delivering tanned goods to those who had ordered them, in exchange for a bit more extra cash for the delivery. Unfortunately, this didn’t last for long, as people elected to come pick the goods themselves for the cheaper option. This meant that while she was still young, Zella eventually found herself with not much to do. Soon enough, the family found themselves in need to relocate to a different country, as their business suffered greatly. Once in Hotaru, they managed to settle down in a village in the north of the country, where they had managed to find a place that had a need for tanners. It was there that Zella would find her home from there on. During her early teen years, at the age of 13, Zella began working on tanning alongside her mother, learning the ropes from her. However, she could immediately tell that this was not right for her. Her father, in the meanwhile, began to train her in dual-wielding daggers, just as his father taught him, in order to ensure that Zella will be able to pass the skills down whenever she had a child of her own. It was during one of those training sessions that Zella took one step too far sideways, hitting the bark of a tree. It left a scar on the upper part of her right arm, along with a bunch of sap. While she initially intended to just clean the sap off, a Heracross jumped on her, seemingly from the same tree she hit, and began licking the sap right off her clothing. At first, she was incredibly uncomfortable and tried shooing the Heracross away, it seemed like nothing she or her father did would make the bug pokemon go away. When the sap was all gone, the Heracross initially let go of her arm, and just looked at the two. When Zella and her father began making their way back, the Heracross followed them. It followed them all the way to the village, before her father decided to try and send it back more forcefully. But the Heracross just pushed back, and then went between her father and Zella, surprising the two. Figuring there wasn’t any other choice, Zella allowed the Heracross to follow her back home, which basically led to the adoption of Gale. At the age of 17, a fire had occurred in the neighboring village to the one Zella lived in. Many people started to come and find shelter in her village, making Zella curious about what had occurred. With her parents permission, she went to see what had happened, and to try and provide some tanned leather to anyone who was still in that village, as cover against the cold. Upon arriving there, she saw the ruins that remained from the village. No one had stayed there, but quickly enough she heard a cry. Running towards the sound, she found a pokemon she had never seen before, one which was trapped underneath a wooden pole. Using what strength she had, she managed to pull it just enough for the pokemon to become loose. Although it was wary, the pokemon did not immediately flee as expected. It simply looked at her, as if it was curious. As Zella kept looking around the ruined village, the pokemon followed her, from a distance. Eventually, when Zella decided it was time to go, the pokemon approached her. It was still done with caution, but it seemed as though the pokemon did not wish for her to go alone. After escorting her the whole way back, the pokemon seemed to have become friendlier towards her. But it took a bit of encouragement for Zella to convince the pokemon to enter her village, where some of the people seemed to be as wary of it as the pokemon was wary of them. It was there she learned about the pokemon, who was known as Absol, the Disaster Pokemon. Rumoured to always be present where disaster occurs, it gained a bad reputation and was feared by many. But Zella decided she didn't care, and went to the stables in the village. While the stable owner was hesitant about letting an Absol stay there, he was convinced to let her stay, as long as Zella took care of the Absol entirely by herself. Zella, naming the Absol Mist, started spending much time in the stables. After a few months, the Stables owner saw the potential and care she put into her Absol and Heracross, and decided to hire her to be a stablehand. He also began teaching her how to take care of pokemon injuries and a bit of potion making, so she will be better equipped to help different pokemon that pass by the village, those who need care, or any random pokemon she finds along the way. Zella felt like she found her calling in life thanks to this, with the calling being helping anyone and any pokemon she can.

Another identifying marker about her is her eyes, both of which appear to be a matching grey to her fur. Personality: Wary and Loyal. Mist, due to being feared for most of her life, always had a cautious attitude when it came to any humans. When encountering new humans on her own, she will always step back, but when it is with Zella, she becomes slightly more confident, though not by much. After being helped getting out of being trapped at the hands, Mist gained an appreciation towards Zella, and started following her, doing anything Zella asks her to do (As long as Mist is capable of performing the task), and even letting Zella ride her, as a show of gratitude and loyalty towards the human who helped her.
