"Careful, Rookies! This dragon may be old, but he's still got his fangs!"
Name: Kaizer Drachen
Age: 55
Status: Rallen Knight's Academy Headmaster
Appearance: Kaizer has the visage of an aged warrior. When he's not wearing his usual armor, his body is covered in a variety of scars from the many battles he's fought over the years. His hair has begun graying over the last few years, leaving him with a salt-and-pepper coloration. His eyes are a striking grey. Despite his advancing age, Kaizer's body is still in peak physical condition due to training and working out at every possible opportunity.
Personality: As one would expect, Kaizer thinks of himself as little more than a warrior for the crown. He claims it's not his place to think or question orders, but truth be told, he's much wiser than he lets on. He rarely, if ever, jumps into battle without thinking through his plans, and makes it his mission to ensure every soldier survives the mission, sometimes even at the cost of his own life and limb. He's long since considered retiring from the service, finding a wife, and settling down, but he takes his job at the academy with the utmost seriousness and has come to consider the children at the school to be his own in a mentor sort of way. Despite this, he has a record for being a strict and demanding teacher and will not accept anything but the best from those put under his charge.
Biography: Kaizer was a model soldier from a young age. Coming from one of the poorest areas of the Rallen Region, he joined the military after his father's death as a means of providing for his mother and younger sister. Shortly after joining, it was discovered that Kaizer had the potential to use the Unity Phenomenon and he found himself whisked away to the Knight's Academy where he was partnered with a small and sickly Charmander which he nickamed Ignis.
The other students - many of them noble's children - mocked the duo for their ragged appearance and lack of proper training, but this only strengthened Kaizer's resolve to prove himself. In three short years, he rose through the ranks of the Academy, voraciously studying and training at every opportunity until he graduated at the top of his class in the final year, now with a powerful Charizard at his side. Together, Kaizer and Ignis found themselves at the forefront of several battles that helped to expand the boundaries of the Rallen Region and the two became legendary heroes in the eyes of the people. Kaizer even was said to have once caught the attention of Princess Sophia, the king's eldest daughter and future Queen of the region.
After twenty-five years of service, Kaizer and Ignis found themselves being honored with a new opportunity. A commission from the now Queen Sophia to return to the Rallen Knights' Academy as the new headmaster and oversee the training of the incoming students. In addition, he was charged to open the doors of the academy so the chance to become a Pokémon Knight was more accessible to the peasantry of the Rallen Region. Kaizer graciously accepted the offer and has held the position to this day.
Partner Pokémon + Unity Abilities: Kaizer's partner Pokémon is his Ignis, his Charizard. Ignis started out as a meek and sickly Charmander, but grew into a more refined and confident persona as he evolved. Currently, he serves as an ally and mount to Kaizer when he needs to get around the region. In battle, Ignis is widely considered to be one of the strongest Pokémon in the royal army, having never retreated from battle a single time.
When using Unity, Kaizer receives an armor that shares Ignis' strength with his own. A single punch from Kaizer in this form has enough power to knock down a castle wall (Focus Punch/Seismic Toss). In addition, Kaizer is able to use a limited amount of magic to conjure flames, which he typically summons into his palm and unleashes a plume of scorching fire (Flamethrower). He would later modify this ability and become capable of generating lightning attacks as well (Thunderpunch) Finally, the cape on the armor is capable of splitting into a pair of wing-like appendages that allows Kaizer short range gliding when airbore, but he needs to generate the altitude first.

Quirks:
- Kaizer has received the nickname "Old Dragon" during his tenure at the academy. Despite being a joke, he actually accepted the moniker, often using it to remind students that he's still got more than enough strength to whip them into shape.
- While it rarely happens, Kaizer and Ignis have been known to get into fights with one another over various - and usually menial - issues. When it does happen, the pair are so evenly matched with each other that their fights can last for hours on end.
- Kaizer has an immense tolerance for alcohol. According to other faculty members at the academy, he once drank three tankards of ale in one sitting and showed no signs of intoxication.
- Despite her being married with children, it's been a long-held rumor that Kaizer and Queen Sophia had a romance in the past. Kaizer has always denied these rumors, but one student swore that he found a miniature portrait of the queen sitting on Kaizer's bedside table when he snuck into the headmaster's bed chambers.

Here's the first character so you can have an idea for how the character sheet is set up! Woohoo! Finally starting this!
Spewpa. He keeps an eviolite given to him by Alan tucked within his cloak and knows a variety of uncommon moves. He possesses the hidden ability, Friend Guard, and is not particularly capable in 1 on 1 battles. Contrary to Alan, Spewpa is rather reserved.
