Character
[/u][/size]Name:
Greg Kylan Reyes
Age:
20
//OOC: Yes I'm aware this is old but I fancy playing a trainer my own age.
Gender:
Male
Appearance:
Kylan has a trim build, yet not so trim he looks unhealthy so he isn't called skinny except by his friends as an in-joke. Yet when he's looked at his build seems fitting of his slim frame and suiting for someone like him. His height seems to seems enough to not make him stand out at a mere 5' 8'' he’s neither tall nor short and somewhere among the more average range. Still his skin shows his travelling in it’s sun-kissed tones although surprisingly it doesn’t carry a hint of weathering like most traveller’s do.
His warm, copper eyes are good at conveying his emotions and seem rather friendly at a glance, something that isn’t easily achieved but comes naturally to Greg, although give him a reason to be angry and his eyes darken to near black an obvious hint when his ire is earned. Now to lighter subjects his hair is brown and in fact quick plain, if a little on the wild side and never able to be tamed for very long. Now I suppose you’ve learned of how Greg is so I suppose you need to know how he dresses.
Well allow me to tell you that, for you see Greg wears simple attire. Yet attire that is sturdy from the tips of his black boots to the olive waxed jacket he sometimes wears. But he wears tight T-shirts all year round, the tones varying from black to green, from grey to dark blue. As with most the tones do vary after all. Now comes his fatigues, another simple item of clothing and one that he wears in either black or grey. After that he has his camera which he either wears from his neck or waist and while speaking of his waist I should mention his belt. This is something Greg is quite proud of for you see he made it himself, it has pouches for everything he needs as a trainer and more besides for things like a pokedex and his camera.
History:
Greg Reyes had a sad past but not a terrible one, for you see he was born to a family of pokemorphs and yet he was the only one of their children not to be born with the markings of a Swellow pokemorph. Yet this didn't mean his family loved him any less, oh no his sadness came from not being able to share in their joy of flight. Something that almost grew into hate within him until his little sister, Annabelle, suggested he use his knack for making things to fashion himself a glider.
So he did so and now is where his story takes a bitter turn, for you see the very day he managed to climb aloft to join them in the air he was caught on a strong northern wind. One that swept the young twelve year old away from his family faster then any of them could fly, so it came to pass that the normal child from a family of the air became separated from everything and everyone he knew. As when he did in fact land he had been airborne for three days and had no idea where he was and all he had of his old life was a photo of his family and his daemon Elyna.
Now you'd think after this he'd find his way home and have a normal life but sadly that is not the case here as you see. He hadn't lived in any town or near any really, he'd lived in a little community of aerial pokemorphs and where they lived only had the name Skyfall. Which wasn't on any map so after years spent exploring he passed quickly from a mere twelve year old to a young man of seventeen years old. Who by then was so very tired of travelling for somewhere that he could neither find nor direct to that he gave up. Only to be found resting under a cherry blossom tree by a young girl who took him into her home, convincing her parents to let him stay with them. The girl was called Shara and she was a pokemorph but not an aerial one, oh no this girl was in fact a Chimecho morph.
Now that in itself might seem trivial to you and I but to Greg it meant the world, here was a pokemorph who liked him enough to give him a sense of family again late in his life. So he stayed there for three years before the call of travelling called to both Shara and he. So both made a promise to meet halfway around the region and see one another again, setting off in opposite directions.
Shara and Carter to the west, Carter being of course her daemon an Absol of all things, but given her caring nature that wasn't a surprise. Now I should mention of course that Greg’s own daemon settled into the form of a Glaceon somewhere along the line, Greg himself doesn’t remember when this actually happened just that it did at some point before he met Shara.
Personality:
Greg is a highly caring person, even given his past. He desired more then anything a sense of belonging and home, something he only found when he met Shara. Although he only really bonded with her and her parents had him as he paid his way. Still I digress; Greg is as I said a caring person and a motivated person. Once he makes his mind up to do something or go somewhere people have a very hard time talking him out of it.
The downside of course is that he is a little shy at times, if he finds himself around other humans he doesn't fully understand them enough to interact with them easily and yet put him with a pokemorph and he quickly warms to them. Another aspect of him of course is his trusting nature, something he never lost no matter what evils he saw on his travels. He'll try to trust anyone but once they betray that trust he'll take it very personally and sometimes have a very hard time trusting that person ever again.
Career:
Greg is by pokemon standards a trainer, although one could also say he has a little bit of ranger to him as well. Yet besides his pokemon career he makes money on the side for his food, clothing and worldy possessions by taking and selling photographs.
The Daemon[/u][/size]
Name:
Elyna
Form:
Glaceon
Appearance:
Elyna looks almost normal, however like Greg she was born different from others of her kind. Or at least so she shows in her settled form as she appears like almost any other Glaceon except for the fact that one of her ears instead takes the form of an Espeon ear. This is Greg's soul showing the fact he was born unlike anyone in his family and showing it visibly to all, something Greg does all the time but no-one knows he does.
Personality:
Elyna shows Greg at his full, she can be cold to strangers and aloft at times. Yet she is also caring and protective of people especially Greg, she became almost a surrogate mother. Almost that is, the pair are very closely bonded and never more then ten feet apart. Not only is this due to the restrict of how far a daemon can go from it's human but also do to how close and reliant the pair have become on one another over the years.
History:
Now barely anything has been said of dear Elyna, but not because she doesn’t matter. No instead because her story suits its own space more then being attached to Greg’s own. For you see as with all daemon’s she was born with Greg however in his family line the daemon’s were little more then ghostly wisps, often staying ethereal and only appearing in times of need. Which as you can imagine Greg came to need upon being separated from his family entirely, so his soul gave her constant form like any other daemon. Something that both amazed and shocked them both to their very core.
Still once they adapted Greg and Elena grew close, both learning to rely on one another for any support needed. And although Elyna couldn’t fight she protected him in her own way and he protected her as well.[/center]
