[b]Background:[/b] Up until now, Oriana has lived a sheltered life in Mercer Town. Her parents are geologists who run a small fossil and mineral store, selling trinkets from all over the region. From a young age, Oriana would help out in the store from time to time, fascinated by the wares and the history behind them. They instilled in her a longing to see the places they came from.

Which her parents wouldn't allow. Since they knew the stories about the region, they knew just how dangerous it could be, due to the powerful and unpredictable Pokemon inhabiting it. She was to stay safely inside as often as possible, and eventually inherit the store. Oriana knew she couldn't live like that, surrounded by fragments from lands she'd never visit. When a chance at freedom presented itself, in the form of the few friends she had inviting her to go exploring the mountains, she took it right away. Telling her family she was staying over at someone's house, she went along with them.

Only for a neighbor to spot them, and inform her parents, aware of how serious they were about keeping her safe. From then on, they kept an even tighter rein on her. Oriana hated it. The trip would have gone fine, she reasoned, the others had Pokemon, what was there to fear? If only she could have her own Pokemon, she'd be able to face any challenge the region posed. So, she snuck out again, and arranged with Professor Cypress to become a trainer. Naturally, her family were livid when they found out, but by then there was no stopping her - Oriana's Pokemon journey was already planned.

[b]Pokemon:[/b] Dratini

[b]Items:[/b] A few pebbles, low value gems, and old coins. Much like a dragon, she'll collect trinkets she finds throughout her journey.
