Name:Selek
Age:24
Gender:Male
Pokemorph:No
Appearance:Selek can be described in three words; lean, tall, and pale. To say Selek is on the thin side is a gross understatement. Selek weighs only enough so that you cannot see his bones through his skin. However, this is not from any disorder or maltreatment, he naturally is skinny and will probably remain that way. To add to his thin-look, Selek is tall, quite tall. He is about 6'5, but some people say he is taller, some say he is shorter. In truth, it all depends on who he is meeting. A short person will definitely think he is taller than someone who is closer to his size. As for Selek's paleness, it is commonly believed he is that way because he spent most of his life inside. In fact, he does not mind the outdoors, and he rather enjoys to spend his time just watching the beauty of the world around him. In truth, he is pale mainly due to his parents being both related to albino ancestors. This is a rare occurrence, but it was by chance that this happened. Because he is pale, Selek almost always has sun lotion on hand, something that he is mocked for but nonetheless has.
Now that you have the basic shape of Selek in your mind, let me tell you more about his facial features. His hair is short and black; plain black, not raven-black or dark red or brown. It is simply, black. Nothing more-nothing less. Selek's face is square, but as it comes to his chin it becomes slightly rhombus shapes, so he looks rather 'sharp'. As for his eye color, it is a stunning middle hue of blue. This blue is not light, nor is dark. It is a perfect combination of the two, a vibrant hue of the stereotypical blue we all imagine. However, this wondrous blue color is masked by his thin eyes that often seem to be oriental. (However again this is not true).
Selek's favorite color is blue, preferably a light blue. He can be seen wearing blue more than any other color; simply because he likes to wear it the most. As for the clothing he wears, it varies. However the style of clothing he wears always seems to be more clothing than the average person would need, and this is because of his pale skin. He usually has a long-sleeve sweater on; even during the summer. This sweater carries sentimental value for him, and of course-it is his favorite shade of blue. As for his pants, they too follow the odd clothing pattern of wearing more than is needed. His shoes, are basic running shoes that are black so they blend in to whatever he is wearing. Selek doesn't pay much attention to what he is wearing; just as long as there is some sort of blue involved in it.
Personality:Selek could be described as the quiet kid; or maybe the know-it-all. Still; Selek could also be described as the weird kid who sat in the back of the room and never talked to anyone. In fact, thats exactly who Selek is, a combination of the three. Selek spent his first few years of his school-life with other kids. He stood out; he was brilliantly intelligent, but extremely quiet and antisocial. He did not like to talk to other kids, and if spoken to by them-he spoke sharply and in as short as possible. If he was addressed by the teachers, he'd answer only the question that was asked, and an even and calm tone-but more often than not this seemed to be a forced calmness, as if he was holding something in.
By the time he was eight, his parents began to home school him. Selek continued to grow smarter, but also more distant from other children. Selek hardly ever lets his emotions show, he bottles them up for days, months even-and will eventually yell them at his Daemon in one swift and often random blow. Selek is quick to anger; he hates it when others seem ignorant or unable to understand what he means; because he often speaks in big words this happens fairly often. Selek, as it should be said-is antisocial. He hates speaking to others, absolutely hates it.
But; there is an exception to Selek's personality malfunctions. He could spend hours just staring at the world around him. He is observant, and as such enjoys spending his time with Pokemon. this is to be expected, but unlike most he does not try to have the strongest Pokemon. He does not try to train them harshly; in fact, he trains them to simply follow orders and win. He finds just as much enjoyment out of the weak Magikarp as he does the strong legendaries. Selek would just as rather observe Pokemon in the wild as he likes to battle him; which he is fairly good at. While battling, he picks his moves based on what he wants to accomplish. Does he want to weaken his enemy? Or simply destroy them? Is he trying to be impressive? Or give the opponent a false security thinking that they will win? It varies, but Selek almost always has a goal in mind other than, 'win'.
It is needless to say then, that Selek is fairly open with Pokemon. He trusts them better than he trusts people, and could probably become good friends with any of them if he takes the time. Still; Selek's basic quick-to-anger personality doesn't change. A stubborn, arrogant, or ignorant Pokemon will not match well with Selek's personality and so he generally won't socialize with them.
Selek has many randomly personality quirks of his, these must be addressed simply for your knowledge of better understanding his character. Selek is a vegetarian, even though he is antisocial-Selek secretly wants to fit in with the crowd, Selek doesn't take, make, or understand jokes well, and nor does he ever use sarcasm.
History:Selek was born to a rich family. His father was, like his son-a genius who made his fortune working with machines and robots. It is unclear who he worked for, whether or not the company was shady or clean. However, his father was able to retire young with the money he earned with about twenty years of work. Selek's mother, who was not a genius-but was creative and knew how to use money wisely so that their fortune would never go to waste. Selek was an only child, and until the age of eight, he was like every other kid out there.
That is a lie; really. From the time he entered school until he turned eight, Selek never fit in with the other kids. While other kids played games and pranks, Selek simply sat in the back of the class and ignored them. Sometimes, he'd even grow angry at childish antics. Needless to say, he was picked on rather often for not, 'acting his age'. He distanced himself from other children, and that only grew worse once he turned eight. That was when his parents took him out of school; and began to home school him. Selek was a brilliant thinker, and by the time he was home schooled, Selek's destiny was changed.
As Selek grew more and more intelligent, his parents began to pressure him to take certain jobs. They began to study the forms and shapes that his Daemon took. Hos mother's Daemon, who was a Persian-and his father's whose was an Abra were of course hoping for their child to have a brilliant Daemon as well. As it started to become clear his Daemon would be something they indeed wanted, this pressure on him only grew. By the time Selek was 12, he could no longer take the pressure his parents were putting him under. He wanted to be a normal kid, but did not know how. He was already to distanced from the social playing field which other children were masters of. Selek then decided to secretly rebel against his parents.
Under the cover of night, Selek began to study Pokemon. He would often search for them in the large land he lived on, sometimes finding some and other times coming up with none. Selek learned the types of Pokemon, he learned how battling worked, and other such things. When Selek's daemon, Picard, became fixed as an Alakzam at age 14, his parents chose his career path for him. He was to be an astronaut, or something along those lines-Selek had no interest in this. However, he played along until his schooling ended-which it did when he turned 16. His intelligence allowed him to graduate early, and with that done he told his parents the secret he had been hiding since he was 12. He was going to be a Pokemon Trainer, whether or not they wanted him to be.
His parents were not pleased.
Selek was un-phased by their displeasure, and left without any support of his parents. Selek was going to challenge himself with becoming a trainer, and planned on doing so with Pokemon not many would choose. He has forgotten about his parents since, and has yet to revisit them.
Career:Pokemon Trainer; Like everyone else.
The Daemon[/u][/size]
Name:Pi card
Form:Alakazam
Favorite Form/s:Before he was settled, Pi card was often seen in the forms of; Abra, Padget, and Mr. Mime. These affected Sleeks history greatly.
Appearance:Pi card is leaner than the average Alabama's, but in size and shape he is exactly the same. However, his colors deviate from a Alabama's coloration. Picard lacks any color, he is completely gray scaled in color. Where he would have been dark brown, Picard is dark gray, and where he would have been yellow he is a light gray (etc.). His ears, along with his whiskers, come to a sharper point then a regular Alakazam's. His whiskers, it should be noted, are longer than an average Alakazam's. The whiskers also end in 'torn' edges, as if they had been partly shredded instead of ending naturally. The most important difference between Picard and a regular Alakazam is that instead of two spoons, Picard only holds one spoon, in the other hand he holds a knife.
Personality:Picard is just as intelligent as Selek; more so even. Just as Selek did, Picard also knows the ways of battling and will often offer advice to Selek if he has forgotten something-as Picard never forgets. Picard is a jokester, and often is a translator for other people who do not undertsand what Selek is saying. Because Selek does not understand jokes, Picard's sarcasim is only understood by others, and he knows this. Therefore, he pokes fun at Selek often-though all in good humor.
Picard as undergone abuse from Selek, because Selek will often shower bottled up emotions on him at random times. Because of this, Picard looks tattered, however he holds no grudges against Selek. Picard's knife, which seems rather odd for him to be holding; is a representation of both Picard's jokes, but also the oppisition to one of Selek's deepest scecrets-that he wants to fit in. Picard reminds Selek via this fork by telling him it is good that he is not like the others, and doesn't fit in.
Picard can also become slightly embaressed by Selek's actions. If Selek does not respond correctly in social situations, Picard will often quickly correct or hide his face from Selek. Instead of talking to Selek in these cases, (as well as other cases) Picard will talk via telekenisis, which Selek can also do-only with Picard, seeing as afterall, Picard is a reflection of his soul.
