My Very Brief Bio

Male, 33 years old. (I'm even more dead than before.)

Likes (other than writing and roleplaying): I'm into all genres of music. I love to cook. I love the outdoors, and walking through the park near my house. (Yes, really.) I read a lot of thriller/mystery novels. And I usually watch seasonal anime. (Or cooking shows. Because Western Media provides even fewer things that are worth watching.)

But as for my many other neglected hobbies, I've played basically every sport. (Soccer and Bowling being my favorite of the bunch.) And I'm trying to play more video games. (Going through my never-ending Steam library.) Plus, I've dabbled in making electronic & metal music, and I used to play a number of instruments. (Guitar, French Horn, etc.)

Hope you have a wonderful day!

Leo's attention, like many of the students of the gym turned to the trouble making students. Leo glared daggers at them both, because he desire to show his stuff suddenly got snuffed by these morons. It was ridiculous that they were all punished from being able to train. "Great, just what I wanted to do, write a bunch of tedious and boring papers." Leo thought to himself, pretty pissed off. Leo wasn't usually the one to stay silent, but he remained that way just to not escalate the situation. Leo let out a deep annoyed sigh sitting upward, crossed arms and looking at his sister to see her reaction, not speaking but his expression was worth a thousands words.
@KatherinWinter

Jay was still watching two to the four fighting students still talk by to the teacher, he just waited for the appropriate result. He was immediately disappointed when he heard the instructor's punishment, but it wasn't due to the assignment as he actually didn't mind writing. He was used to it writing scrolls for magic for his father as a daily chore. Jay stopped for a moment noticing the door creaking open, Jay's eyes widened a little seeing Inigo heading through the students, thankfully still invisible, climbing up to his shoulder. "What the hell are you doing here?" Jay whispered to Inigo. "I found your room, and I got bored, thought I'd surprise ya, Inigo spoke back quietly noticing the arena. "Ooo, fighting?" Inigo chirped. "No,because of those students talking back, we were punished us all into doing an assignment instead." Jay corrected pointing to the students. Inigo looked at the students and called out to the students, not so quietly. Which Jay wasn't expecting. "Should of kept your mouths shut!"

@Fox of Spades If Leoven doesn't seem to be active for a bit, would you consider opening for another slot? Or do you think what we have will be enough. (Appreciate the banner. :3)
@Melo Yeah, hopefully this works. I wrote most of it in way too f-ing late o'clock. I hope it's not garbage. XD
I'm finished writing a CS, (or close enough). Hopefully it will work for you. :P If this is still accepting people, and still going. (Sorry I fucking accidentally posted this message in the wrong place. >.<)
Name: Dominic 'Don' Harvey
Age: 27 (just turned)
Gender: Male
Appearance:
Personality: His been very different depending on his age. Until he was 18, he was probably the closest thing to a saint that you could get.Very kind, generous and also very spiritual and his always volunteered at animal shelters with his mother, loving animals of all kinds...

When his mother who was basically all the family he had died, so did his spirituality. He changed a lot. He was still often social, usually the one to get everyone to laugh at parties he and his friends would often frequent. Speaking very sarcastically often for humor sake, he was still very chivalrous toward women and treated them with utmost respect, as his mom meant the world to him. Though far more rough around the edges, as he was very aggressive toward other males, especially those who would speak ill of him or his mother. He often was reckless with not caring about the consequences.

He learned to love and only listen to metal, marijuana, alcohol, tattoo's and fast cars. Frequenting large parties that involved at least three of the five. However, that reckless behavior changed when he found the love of his life. Who made him quit both alcohol and marijuana and his more reckless behavior for several years. Today? He wouldn't be able to tell you what his personality was...

Ability: Animal morphing: His unique ability revolves around changing into animals, whether they're around, exotic, or simply extinct. Though a bizarre limitation is they actually had to exist. He can change almost instantly without needing an extreme amount of concentration, not usually constrained by a specific time limit. Often even changing from one animal, right to another. He does have quite a few weakness, for instance is he is not in full control of his power. He can sometimes change into the wrong thing, not change at all when he desire to. Change with he doesn't desire to. In rare cases, temporarily forget his memories and change his mindset into the animal he has become. Luckily it hasn't majorly effected his mental health and memories do return, or psychically. He does suffer from the occasional sharp migraine, which is also when his powers are the most likely to act up.

Background: He lived most of his life with his single mother, in the west of USA. specifically in Oregon. His mother spent most of her life trying to make the lives of other better. Spending most of her time as a charity organizer or volunteering at her church since she was also very religious or at the local animal shelters or helping out at the boys and girls club. She didn't make money from any of these activities. Able to do this from the rather extensive life insurance policy her husband left for her, when he passed away from a tragic car accident on his way from a particularly rainy day from work. Only a week after the birth of Dominic. She didn't spend her time grieving and being depressed, deciding to follow her dreams, to not have to work and spend her time just looking after her son and helping everyone in need. She almost always took her son to these events to help out. He didn't mind, in fact he was also excited to help out. He honestly didn't complain about anything life threw at him, he considered himself content and happy.

When is mother died, from being stabbed to death from a mugger one fateful night she went out on his birthday of all times. He was looked after by all his friends he had made unfortunately they also were self proclaimed rebels and party animals. They all took him into that lifestyle which was quite contrasting from his first 18 years. Changing his personality and behavior as they spent more and more time together at the constant parties they would go to, getting high and drunk and having good times at the expense of others. They gave him his first tattoo at 19, a black heart with MOM in the middle, on his upper right leg to honor his mothers passing. It didn't stay his only tattoo for long as he continued to his reckless lifestyle for several years.

Until, due to losing a drinking bet. He was forced to go to a dating website where he ended up meeting his girlfriend, Alice and his reason he went to London in the first place. She was everything to him in a rather short time, they would spend their entire days talking to one another over the internet. Making him quit drinking and smoking and his other reckless behavior. Nearly 4 years they spent together, they even got engaged and sent each other rings. Deciding to make a new life with her in London, move into a place together and that's exactly what he did.

He had been in London for approximately a month now, living in his girlfriend's small apartment, while they found a place to move. He was out looking to get a job most of the day, it was March 1st, his birthday. He could only imagine what surprise his fiancee had in store when he went up the stairs to reach his girlfriend's door, he could hear another man talking “about their love together”. He quickly open the door, he froze in completes shock seeing her shirt-less and bra-less, kissing another man, a total stranger that he never saw before on the lips. She shoved him away, the words that escaped her lips. “This is not what you think it is.” He never felt so betrayed, angry, everything in his mind got clouded by a darkness of sorts, he glared daggers at the strange man, he wanted the man dead. Suddenly his mind seemed to shut off, he only felt one emotion anger. He had turned into a wolf right before both of their eyes, he lunged at the stranger knocking him on of his feet, biting down on his throat and savagely clawing into him. Within a minute he changed back and remembered what he did, looking at his bloodstained hands in horror of what he had just done. What the hell had just happened? He knew his girlfriend was right by him, he couldn't even look at her face. The only thing he could think to do was to bolt of his girlfriend's apartment. The proceeding day, he was in a cheap motel mainly so he had a bed to sleep in, having absolutely no idea what to do...

Other: His nickname 'Don' came from his girlfriend accidentally messing up his name the first few times they talked to each other, which he found humorous and the nickname stuck despite being slightly inaccurate compared to his real name.
@KatherinWinterWell its hard to take a 'little' of my ability in any real way for sure, since its an ability to alter my/others muscle structures. Not just strength. And got you.
Posted, and ready to get this party started. :3



Route to Mauville City: 4:55 pm

The sun was shining brightly, it really was a perfect day to go walking with his teammates. Deciding since this morning he'd go to the next city nearby, hearing their was a magic show which peaked his curiosity. He made it most of the way there thanks to one of his teammates flying him close. Following beside and around him were most of his pokemon outside their pokeballs which was incredibly common to Shawn getting a few odd looks from various passers-by's. His Espeon, Soul on his left side. His Luxray, August on his right side. Behind him, his Scizor, Blade. Lastly, his Riolu, Melody which was being held in Shawn's arms, since his back was currently occupied with a full backpack of supplies as they all approached the city able to see some of it's buildings in the distance. Shawn was talking back and forth between his teammates, laughing at a joke being told. Soul was used to being the translator of sorts making Shawn able to more effectively understand what they were all saying. Shawn looked up at the skies as they had turned quite gloomy and the dark cloud loom overhead covering the skies rather quickly, he frowned disappointed letting out a sigh looking like it was going to rain knowing they'd better get some shelter.

“Well we better hurry before it starts pouring. I don't want my supplies getting too wet. But, at least we're almost there.” Shawn spoke out looking at them all, they all gave a non-verbal nod and smile, except August who just gave a smug smirk, closing his eyes sitting down.

<”Well. I for one, would love a little rain.”> August states in a very self-satisfied tone. Though it was only sarcasm, opening one of his eyes to see Shawn's reaction. Shawn rolled his eyes.

“I'm sure your fine with it,” Shawn replied back. “Come on everyone.” Shawn added as he started to run to Mauville City, with the rest of them following in close proximity until Blade prodded August in the back of the head.

<“Bet I can beat you in a race to the welcome sign!”> Blade spoke playfully quickly dashing off ahead for the city. August took his challenge, immediately dashing off to catch up with him refusing to lose. Shawn watched them both go ahead as he looked down at Soul who looked aggravated.

<“Boys...”> Soul sighed. Shawn stopped running and reached down to pet Soul's head as she looked up at him with a smile. Shawn is interrupted before he could speak by Melody tugging gently on his shirt looking at him with pleading eyes. Shawn knew that she wanted to return to her pokeball, as he reaching in his pocket and put her back inside. As Shawn cleared his throat feeling his mouth was a little dry, as he was getting a little thirsty he quickly pulled out his large flask of water to take a drink, putting it back in his backpack when he finished.

“Let them have their fun. Come on, let's catch up.” Shawn said looking at Soul as he and she began to run to catch up with the other two. Shawn being able to run easier without having to worry about Melody's comfort. With some effort he caught up to them both as Luxray big grin it was clear who won the race.

Mauville City: 5:00 pm

Shawn noticed how pack full of people the town was even upon first glance, he didn't want people to chastise him for crowding up the place with his team. Shawn decided it would be best to put most of them back in the pokeballs for politeness sake, he didn't want another incident, he pulled out his pokeballs.

“I don't want anyone to complain about you guys. I promise I let you guys out soon alright?” Shawn stated. August just nodded not really comfortable being around so many strangers. Blade looked more disappointed.

<“Alright...”> Blade muttered. Shawn sympathized with him knowing he wanted to stay outside as he put them both inside their pokeballs. Knowing Soul wouldn't ever go in her ball even if he asked. Shawn began walking through the crowd of people looking around trying to find the magic show, that was supposed to be around here. The backpack let out a loud musical chime as Shawn remember he promised his dad that he would call him to let him know he made it. Shawn walked to a nearby bench and sat down to rest his legs and reach through his bag to find his cellphone, which he only had because his father forced him into having one. Shawn looks at the cellphone seeing and reading the text he had been sent a from his father. “Hope you made it to the city! Don't forget to call! Love you.” as Soul hops up on the bench and sits looking intensely at all the people walking by. Glaring daggers at a small child who was laughing and running a little to close to them. Shawn looked at Soul as he placed his hand gently on her head.

“Well let's try to find where the magic show is...I can call my dad after that. He worries too much.” Shawn says as he put his phone back and started to make his way to the magic show finally coming across it seeing all the large colorful posters. Suddenly Blade came out his pokeball with a innocent smile. “You want to watch the show that badly too?” Shawn asked Blade as he nodded in response. Shawn smiled back. “Alright. I guess it really doesn't really matter.” Shawn answered figuring it wouldn't be that big a deal, not wanting to say no. Besides, Shawn just wanted to have a good day, one of the few times his parent let him go on his own with their permission, so far away from his home. He was ready to meet new faces and talk to all new sorts of pokemon, well and some humans too, he promised his father to be a little more social to his own kind, whatever that was supposed to mean...
@KatherinWinter I mean technically he has a 'power' so was confused on that. But I don't think he'd ever willingly give it up in any circumstance.
@KatherinWinter Something about Leo not having powers, or someone taking powers? I just wanted to know what was going on since it had to do with my character. Was confused. :P
