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.
