    We just had a sign up the other day. @Truly and you could probably be introduced at the same time. Just get your sign up done.

    Also both would be cool! Blue is not as active so it doesnt require much time. Though we would have to talk about the story

    I'm totally willing to try both! I may be a bit inactive these first few days since I just moved in to a new apartment, but I'd totally try! I'll attempt to get my signup done sometime this weekend.

    Story Version: Platinum

    Name: Marina Aless
    Age: 16
    Gender: Female

    Appearance

    Marina is a rather simple looking girl with shoulder-length brown hair and and bright blue eyes that are somewhat amplified in size by the small glasses she wears, but not by much. She wears faded jeans and simple t-shirts of varying designs, but always wears a brown jacket. The jacket itself is covered in small stitches where repairs have been made, especially on the arms, and it’s full of various pockets that hold little trinkets, pencils, notepads...Anything, really. She treasures that jacket and will never be caught without it. She keeps any pokeballs she owns in a small leather purse she carried with her, not wanting them to get mixed up with whatever might be in her pockets. She wears a small Noctowl feather decorated with some beads as an earring.

    Height/Weight: 5’5” (somewhat short)/ 124 lbs.(average weight)

    Personality
    Marina is a cheerful girl who does her best to see the bright side of every situation. She will go out of her way to try and make a friend if she can, but she also understands that some people are just jerks. She can get distracted easily by things she is interested in, and will need to be snapped out of things if she gets too invested in something. She also feels a great need to help pokemon that have been injured in some way or another, often getting anxious (even to the point of panicking) when it is clear they are in pain.

    Personal Traits that describe your character
    Curious, Cheerful, Friendly, Sympathetic, Headstrong, Trusting, Naive

    Backstory
    Marina has spent all of her life living in a small house just outside Violet City with her father. The two share a quiet life tending to injured wild pokemon in their pokemon sanctuary...At least that's what her father likes to call it. In reality, he simply just rescues wild pokemon and either keeps them in their house if they're tame enough, or has them in their backyard until they're ready to be re-released. Marina has always liked this lifestyle, and has tried to learn as much as she can from her father so she can help him with his work. She rarely traveled outside of Violet City as a young girl, but now she runs various errands for her father, sometimes even making it as far as Goldenrod. Throughout all of this, though, she didn't ever have a pokemon of her own. Occasionally, her father would send his Noctowl to watch and help guide Marine, and the young girl and large bird took quite a liking to each other. Now that she is sixteen, Marine wants to do what she can to take stress off of her father and eventually inherit the pokemon sanctuary...If something doesn't go terribly wrong first.

    Family

    Oscar Aless - Father
    Marina has lived alone with her father all her life, and he is a cheerful, robust man in his late fifties. He has raised Marina well, teaching her how to care for and rehabilitate injured pokemon in his small pokemon sanctuary that he owns in Jhoto. He is a skilled pokemon trainer that specializes in bird pokemon, often using them to scout around for other pokemon in need of help. He has made sure to teach Marina whatever he can about pokemon anatomy, care, and raising. Marina looks up to him and things he’s the greatest person in the world.

    Orion
    Orion is Marina's father's Noctowl. The large bird grew very fond of Marina while she was growing up, and Marina loves Orion just as much. She very much enjoys giving him hugs and snuggling into his feathers. Orion is a very docile bird, but will protect his family fiercely.

    Other
    Marina never knew her mother, since she passed away just after she was born due to complications. She doesn’t seem super fazed by this, since she never knew her mother in the first place and her father has done a great job raising her.

    Pokemon experience
    Marina has grown up around pokemon thanks to her father’s profession. She has never trained or owned a pokemon herself, but she has cared for many different kinds and helped treat small injuries. She has always wanted to take over in the pokemon sanctuary when her dad gets too old, so she had been studying pokemon care for several years now.

    Past experience that has defined your character
    One day, her father returned with a very injured Noctowl and several of its eggs. It had apparently been attacked and injured by a wild Houndoom, and it was in danger of dying. Her father had her care for the eggs while he quickly attempted to heal the poor pokemon. Once the eggs were cared for, she hurried to help her father with the Honchkrow. Though there was a lot of blood and they almost lost the poor bird once or twice, they eventually managed to tend to its injuries and save it’s life. The whole ordeal was a big lesson for Marina about the circle of life, and it helped her subdue any fears she might have had of blood and other such things. After that, she decided to study more about pokemon and knew she wanted to take over the sanctuary from her father when he got too old so she could keep saving pokemon that needed help.

    Special Talents:
    Marina is fairly book smart, and can read through things very quickly while still maintaining a decent comprehension of them. She can pick up on new things easily. (Nothing to grandios, but could come in handy!)

    Special Pokemon: Murkrow
    Personal Goals: Marina wants to learn all she can about different kinds of pokemon so she’ll be better suited to running her father’s pokemon sanctuary when he retires.
    Pet Peeves: People who put others down, interrupting, talking over someone else, people who talk during movies
    Region: Jhoto
    Favorite Pokemon: Noctowl
    Favorite Type: Flying


    What starter Pokemon: Piplup
    Drawing or Writing: Drawing! I can do writing, but prefer to draw :)
    Contest Starter: --Probably won’t be entering writing too much--
    Side Notes: Just let me know if you need anything else!

She was the passionate leader of a small theatre club at her school, and worked obsessively in every aspect on the productions they put on.
    One night after a performance, her home was burgled. The thieves took everything from her but a trunk of costumes and the prop Pokemon she used to fill extra roles.
    Louise fled the scene, too traumatized to stay and fearing the thieves would try to track her down. The next several years were spent living as dread pirate Captain Lou “Cannonball” Walker, haunting the waters of the Orange Archipelago. Upon his capture, his rehabilitation included being given a starter Pokemon and the opportunity to begin his Trainer’s Journey, which is all the pirate captain had ever truly wanted.

    Story Version: (Diamon/Pearl)
    Name: Willow Clark
    Age: 16
    Gender: Female
    Appearance: Willow is on the shorter side. She has a pixie hair cut. Her hair is light brown with some faded streaks of greenish-blue. She wears a hearing aid on her left air. The hearing aide has images colored into it. She wears homemade earrings shaped like pokeballs. Her clothes tend to be earth tones. She has a few tattoos and wears a lot of charms and jewelry. Both her wrist are covered in wrist bands and home bad bracelets.
    Height/Weight: 5'2", 104 lbs
    Personality: Willow is a free spirit in every sense of the word. She believes in peace first and tries to find the good in each and every soul. Willow likes to find time to just meditate. She is very close with her pokemon. She can be spacy sometimes with her head in the clouds.
    Personal Traits that describe your character: Happy, Chill and tries to remain in harmony at all times. She loves balances. She is very artistic and tries to make art as often as possible.
    Backstory: Willow and her twin brother Briar, were born 2 minutes apart. They are the oldest of the families 5 kids. Willow is the younger of the two and often relies on Briar feedback. When the two were born the doctors figured out right away that they were both gifted. Long before they spoke words the two were speaking to each other using telepathy. Individually there psychic ability is not very strong, however, when they are around each other they boost each other's powers.
    1. Family: Hathorn and Tulip Clark are the parents of Briar and Willow. They have two younger sisters and one younger brother.
    2. Pokemon experience: Willow instinctively was drawn towards healing and psychic pokemon. When the twins were young their parents brought home a pair of Espurrs.

    4. Special Talents: The twins are telepaths whose powers can be boosted when they are close to each other or close to other psychics.

    Story Version: Platinum

    Name: Briar Clark

    Age: 16

    Gender: Male

    Appearance: Briar is not an identical twin- he's fraternal. However, him and his sister do have the same parents so they share some traits. Briar is usually wearing hiking boots, a backpack full of supplies (including a bug net) and likes to dress in lighter colours and patterns- pastels, creams, sky blues and mint greens. He has light brown hair like his sister, which is longer than hers so he ties it back into a ponytail. His style is somewhere between a hiker and a hippie. He wears only one or two bracelets on his wrist- not as many as his sister.

    Height/Weight: 5'5" and 120lb . Briar is a little taller than his sister (as of only months ago- before that, she was taller than him) and is at that awkward lanky teenage age where his body parts aren't quite all in proportion yet.

    Personality: Briar can be a little prickly at first, but he's a sweet person at heart. He likes small and cute things, and doing kindnesses for strangers. He gets flustered easily and is chronically indecisive - thats where he often ends up talking to his twin to figure out what to do. He's not exactly a leader-type- but he's usually more chatty than his sister, and makes the effort to hear as much about people as he can- because he knows its a privilege to be able to listen. He's really keen on the supernatural and can be overly enthusiastic about pokemon facts sometimes.

    Personal Traits that describe your character: Kind, Supportive, Ditzy, Passive

    Backstory:
    1. Family:
    Hawthorn and Tulip Clark are his mum and dad. Willow is his twin sister, and he also has two younger sisters and one younger brother. They're a pretty chilled out family- being that they own property in Blackthorne which is an icy town for many months of the year. In the colder winter months they all play games indoors as a family and have community get-togethers and ice-skating competitions in the gym.

    2. Pokemon experience: Being a twin, Briar is fascinated by the fact that twins also exist in the Pokemon world. When he was younger he had a set of cards that him and his sister used to learn about pokemon- it had pairs where the boy and girl pokemon looked different, it had paired and split evolutions. Despite not interacting much with the pokemon on the cards, he really treasured them, taught his younger siblings with them, and still has them today.

    3. Past experience that has defined your character: Briar has a relatively uneventful past compared to his sister, whose life seemed much more emotional while dealing with her hearing loss. He would happily leave her to do art while he wandered through the mountain, looking for crypto-pokemon (that is, pokemon which probably don't exist- the sasquatches of the pokemon world). One time while wandering he saw a huge burnt streak of forest, and began theorising that the crater his city was in might have once been a Volcarona nest- a place where Larvesta hatched and lived. Ever since he came up with the theory, he's been trying to spot a volcarona to ask it if the theory is true. He forgets sometimes, that humans and pokemon can't talk so easily.

    4. Special Talents: The twins are telepaths whose powers can be boosted when they are close to each other or close to other psychics.

    Special Pokemon:Male Espurr named Prim

    Personal Goals: Briar wants to see more of the world, make people happy, and eat lots of sweet things. It's nothing too difficult, and after thats done he wants to raise a family in the town that he loves.

    Pet Peeves: Briar doesn't like it when people are snappy or short with each other, and he doesn't like swimming in deep water or walking close to cliffs. He gets annoyed when people aren't accommodating or considerate, and thinks that the taste of fish is gross. He's allergic to berries and not a big fan of loud music but will put up with it.

    Region: Blackthorne City, Johto

    Favorite Pokemon: Volcarona

    Favorite Type: Bug, Ghost and Psychic types

    What starter Pokemon: Turtwig

    Drawing or Writing: Both!

    @Lychee @Rival Max

    Both approved however be careful with telepathy. I'd almost go as far as to say when you use it, speak to the player of a character or myself for NPCs to know what is actually going through their head as opposed to just making up thoughts which could contradict the story.

    Also, you are both allowed to get contest starters, assuming you write the story.

    In terms of intro, I have some ideas. I will create a group chat on discord about your intro when I get a moment.
