Name: Inaya Saab
Age: 27
Profession/Trade: Military Medic (Trained);Therapist and Herbalist
Skills/traits:
Serene and patient can always be used to describe Inaya. Years on years of dealing with children and Pokemon alike has given the still budding doctor the patience of a nun. It takes quite a lot of complaining and whining to really push her buttons, but while she is quite calm at first it isn't unnatural to see her act a bit haughty and stubborn in certain situations. Despite that, Inaya is a hard-working, genius individual with plenty of knowledge on medical sciences and biology. She is extremely perceptive of situations, and finds it easy to stay collected and calm during stressful situations (as long as she feels she is relatively safe). Her levels of empathy seem to raise above most, and she makes for a perfect listener to those who feel stressed or mentally exhausted, and despite her cold exterior Inaya is surprisingly very selfless and caring towards those in need.
Despite all that, though, Inaya is unmistakably cold and distant to strangers and people she deems untrustworthy. She is naturally cynical, and often has trouble trusting even the youngest child at times due to these trust issues. While she is normally calm and patient, as said before, Inaya can sometimes loose herself and end up insulting those who really rattle her. She is sharp-tongued and stubborn when she doesn't even wish to be, and though she may appear intimidating and mean during the argument she quickly looses face and can fall into a slight depression after realizing how awful she had thought herself to be. Going off this, it is quite easy to tell that Inaya isn't a fan of herself. She has intense self-esteem issues and finds it hard to believe when others even attempt to compliment her. The only thing she has faith in is her medical skills. Other then that, Inaya is physically weaker compared to most, and fears failure and abandonment due to her family life.

Her weapon of choice is a baton. Though she absolutely despises fights, it is best to be armed in case of a dire situation. The baton is about the length of her forearm and heavy enough to knock the wind out of someone if swung hard enough.
Appearance:
Inaya is a girl of average looks. With tanned skin, narrow eyes, and plush lips, she could be considered a natural beauty, though that doesn't mean she goes anywhere without a thick coat of makeup to hide any imperfections. Her hair is dyed an extremely light pink, though her darker roots have begun to grow in again, and it is often tied back in a loose ponytail or bun. She has a slim, tall figure, weighing about 135 lbs and standing at about 5'6". Inaya takes pride in her appearance in most situations, but has taken a more homely approach for the mission at hand, wearing a rather simple outfit of a leather corset, her usual white coat, and striped, black and white pants. Her boots are worn and comfortable, and they were chosen due to their easy mobility.
Personality:
Inaya is a sharp woman, a sharp woman with more of an interest in peace and quiet then the rumble of the city. She strives for perfection in herself and her hobbies, and as such has quite a harsh image of herself. Though she loathes herself to the extreme, Inaya does realize her mental prowess is intensely stronger than most, and likes to think of herself as something close to a genius. That isn't enough for her, though, as Inaya is always looking for experiences to inspire and help her along her journey to help others. She isn't as perfect as she would like to be.
Though Inaya wishes to use her smarts to help others and help out the world a bit, she finds herself to be quite cynical towards people. She has trouble trusting strangers and often gives new comers the cold shoulder. She's much more akin to an emotionless doll in appearance; she is distant and vague in the way she speaks to those she doesn't trust. Getting comfortable with her freezing nature can be difficult, but once you manage to break her shell she is much more kind and decent. She is more maternal than she appears as well, and finds it to be no issue to protect those in need during dire situations. Inaya is, much like her Ralts Celty, also very empathetic towards others. She doesn't like to pity people, but she does wish to help them out by listening to their issues and figuring out why they would be feeling so glum or mad.
Inaya is quite different in a business setting, however. She acts much more professional and less distant in her office, keeping a soft smile on her face as she helps those in need, whether it be prescribing medicine for mental issues or devising herbal remedies to reduce a cough or a rash.
Inaya is very curiously interested in cute things, and has a soft spot for children and young Pokemon. She can often be found writing in one of her many journals, trying to decode a new idea she had thought up or recording new data she had discovered perhaps a few moments before. She is always looking forward to discovering new, unknown science facts while out exploring, and she hopes that this new job will introduce her to many new secrets yet unknown to her. She is curious, maybe overly so, and finds her passion to be a wish to uncover new facts for the world to see. Though her mental capabilities are strong, Inaya herself is very weak and gets winded very easily. She hates fighting, finding it much easier to talk things out rather than spill blood, and can be very stubborn at times if things don't go her way.
Background:
The daughter of a lower class family, Inaya didn't have an ideal childhood. Though her mind thirsted for knowledge and exploration, she often found herself stuck in her musty room, flipping through pages of a children's book she had read at least five hundred times before while her parents attempted to pick up the remains of their shattering relationship. From a young age Inaya knew she would have a future in science. She simply ate up whatever knowledge she could obtain, and her main motivation to pursue her dreams came from her mother. Her mother, Abalah Nagi Saab, was once a brilliant engineer, but a mistake took place sometime before Inaya was born, and many people were hurt because of it. Whether it was a faulty engine piece or a loose bolt was unknown to Inaya, her mother refused to talk about the mistake that ruined her career. Inaya, instead of prying, used her mother's anguish as inspiration towards her own goals.
Sometime during Inaya's pre-teen years, her parents split. Her father, Moham Saab, was a well-known drunk around their neighborhood, and would often verbally abuse Abalah after coming home from a night of drinking. Inaya was told once that he had been a much better man, but Abalah's mistake cost him his reputation,a nd also made him the only source of income for the house. Inaya was frightened by the thought of having someone you once loved suddenly rear up and hurt you, then leave you. The very idea of it made her shake with fear, so as a result she turned to hiding behind cold faces and embracing her emotionless attitude.
Inaya graduated high school with high marks, and found herself with a good scholarship to one of the better medical schools in the city. She studied hard, rarely finding times for partying, friends, and family, and acquired countless part time jobs to repay her remaining debts. She took up garden-keeping as a hobby, which was the birth of her eventual interest in herbal medicines, and often found herself studying psychology while glances through her medical books. Inaya took many different courses with discovering new things in mind, and one took her out to a military camp, where she was professionally trained by a military nurse and doctor. She took all of her lessons to heart, and left college with many experiences under her belt.
Sadly, Inaya found it difficult to find a stable job. Her name was well known around some of the city, a name that co-mingled with the word 'failure'. The hospitals she came to turned her away with the fear of her accidentally hurting someone like her mother, and in the end she was left with nothing more then a musty office in the middle of downtown and the remaining money from her part time jobs. And with failure looming over her head she huffed out a sigh and whispered to herself,
"Time to get to work."
She built up her office and her name, deciding to settle on a career as a therapist and herbalist for those in need. She first started off helping those for a small fee, just to build up some confidence and publicity before she started charging higher fees to keep herself afloat. She became well known as a decent therapist and an ideal, cheap medicinal herbalist.
