Azure Bubbles — Roleplayer Guild

Valerian Hardrada arrived alone. Well, as alone as a prince can be.

The limousine that brought him slowed to a stop in front of the league headquarters. Even Valerian thought the limousine was a little excessive. But his family insisted. He was still representing the crown, his mother told him. Still, there was fanfare. No red carpet. No photographers. Just him and the city.

He sat in the backseat a moment longer than he needed to, staring at his own reflection in the tinted window.

His hair was perfect. His coat was tailored. His boots were clean, polished, and entirely unsuited for mud. He looked like he always did: poised, refined, and ready for the front page of a regional fashion blog.

And yet…

His hand hesitated on the door handle.

No security. No aides. No carefully scheduled handlers waiting to usher him through. He wasn’t here to open a hospital or wave at a crowd. There would be no speeches today.

Today, he was just a boy. A boy standing on the edge of everything he had never known.

“You chose this,” he whispered to himself. “Now show them why.”

He stepped out, and was immediately hit with the early morning chill. He walked toward the building with the same grace he’d learned from state dinners and palace hallways.

He looked around, and saw children with Pokémon. Street vendors setting up morning stalls. Workers side by side with Machoke and Golett. Grand Glory City was alive. And yet, not one of the people he passed by turned to bow. Not one of them cared that the Prince of the Hardrada Line was passing by. Valerian should have been insulted, but somehow… that made this whole situation feel more real.

The lobby was elegant, modern, but trying to impress. Valerian respected that. Trees growing indoors. Waterfalls. Projection displays. He understood the message.

Evig was rewriting itself. So was he.

He approached the front desk and smiled “Prince Valerian, of House Hardrada” he said formally. “Here to receive my assignment.” His heart raced. No applause. No flashing cameras. This was happening. This was it.

Name: Prince Valerian Hardrada
Appearance: 

Valerian is tall for his age, standing at 6’0”. He is a striking young man with a slender, graceful build, and with the regal posture of the prince he was raised to be. His wavy platinum blonde hair is perfectly styled at all times. He has expressive piercing blue eyes.

Though born into royalty, he dresses with modern flair. He likes pastel toned, tailored clothing. He wears a soft pink blazer over a lavender t-shirt, sleek designer jeans, and delicate silver accessories. He accessorizes purposefully, always polished, and always looks ready for a photo shoot at any moment. Even on the road, he refuses to be seen looking anything less than immaculate.

Valerian always smells faintly of rosewater and carries himself with the kind of confidence that can only come from someone born into royalty.

Age: 17
Gender: Male

Personality: Valerian is everything someone would imagine a prince to be. Graceful, charming, and endearingly spoiled. He adores luxury, expects comfort, and occasionally makes a mountain out of a molehill (especially when there’s dirt involved). He can be vain, dramatic, and a little high-maintenance, but never cruel. His royal upbringing taught him poise and diplomacy, and while he sometimes weaponizes his charm to get his way, he is genuinely kind beneath the glamorous exterior.

He may fuss over chipped nails or mismatched aesthetics, but he’ll also go out of his way to help someone who’s hurting, even if it means getting his shoes dirty (the horror, I know!) Though pampered, Valerian is sincere, emotional, and ready to prove there’s more to him than sparkles and status.

Trainer Class: Fairy Prince

Hometown: Lacritasia City, Evig Region

Background: As one of the youngest members of the royal Hardrada family, Valerian was raised in the lap of luxury. Though the Hardrada family no longer rules with political power, they remain beloved cultural icons, sponsors of the arts, fashion, and public appearances, their every move documented by the press. From the moment he could walk and talk, Valerian was not just a child, he was a symbol. 

He was trained to be the perfect image of a prince, flawless, composed, and ever gracious. But behind the glitz and glamor, Valerian felt like something was missing. He watched other children, ones who weren’t followed by cameras or styled by professionals, run through the streets with laughter and dirt on their shoes. They had scrapes, messes, freedom. Most of all, they had Pokémon not given to them as gifts, but earned through experience and bonding. Valerian, for all his luxury, envied that.

He always adored Fairy-types, they were beautiful, and magical. Every now and then, he’d sneak into the royal greenhouses at night just to spend time with wild Flabébé and Spritzee. The fairies didn’t ask him to be a perfect prince, only himself.

Valerian was expected to represent the family in galas, charity balls, and televised events. But when Professor Kapoc extended an invitation for young trainers to journey with a Pokédex, Valerian shocked the region by stepping forward himself. Everyone thought it would be a publicity stunt, even his own parents.

Valerian, wrote a letter to Professor Kapoc. In it, he spoke about wanting to learn the world outside of his royal bubble, and about proving that even someone like him could become a true trainer. Professor Kapoc didn’t just accept him, he challenged him. No shortcuts. No special treatment. Just Valerian, a Pokédex, and one Pokémon to start with. And Valerian accepted. He was looking forward to be seen not just as a prince, but as himself.

Kind of Pokémon you like: Fairy types of course! Valerian loves Pokémon that are beautiful, graceful, mystical, or just adorable.

Quirks/Talents/Aspirations/Other:He’s gay! That should come as a shock to no none.
Terrified of Bugs and messes.
Secretly wants to star in an elaborate stage musical.

Can’t cook, but insists on plating everything like it’s a gourmet meal.

Personality: Aurelia is sweet, gentle, and affectionate, but also surprisingly bold. She is fiercely loyal and has a strange knack for sensing people’s emotions. She’s drawn to warmth, kindness, and confidence, which is why she chose Valerian in the first place. She’s unbothered by his drama and tends to perch on his shoulder just to calm him down.

Loves sweet scents, Valerian’s perfume collection is her playground.
Yes, I am aware I said Valerian is terrified of Bugs…

Moves: Scratch, Astonish, Copycat, Wood Hammer
Held Item: N/A

Personality: Umbriel is proud, intense, and quick to take offense, particularly when mocked or underestimated. Though fiercely independent, he hides a deep longing to be accepted and valued beyond his disguise. He’s wary of strangers but slowly learning to trust Valerian, drawn to his confidence and sincerity. Despite his ghostly nature, Umbriel’s loyalty burns bright once earned.

Quirks / Talents / Aspirations:
– Reacts dramatically to perceived insults, often crossing his little shadowy arms and turning away with a huff.
– Has a surprisingly protective streak toward Aurelia Rose and Camellia.
– Occasionally imitates Valerian’s gestures — flipping his fake head dramatically or posing beside him mid-command.
