What I mean to say is, is there a more specific deadline than when GCEA starts?)
Story Version: Pearl? I really don’t mind which, but Pearl has more exclusives I like…
Name: Neith Nimr
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Appearance: Neith has chestnut-brown skin and chin-length black hair with a strand of turquoise beads braided close to her left cheek. She has an average build, perhaps a bit on the short side. Her favorite clothes are a plain black short-sleeved shirt and trousers, with a navy blue jacket added when traveling.
Height/Weight: 5’3”, 116 pounds
Personality: Neith is very inquisitive, and once something catches her attention, she can become a bit obsessed with it. She is generally cheery and positive, and rarely gets angry or let others get to her. She spends most of her time online, and as such at times is slightly out of touch with the real world. She’s also not afraid to ignore any rules that she finds unnecessary.
Personal Traits that describe your character: Curious, obsessive, happy, bouncy, supportive, rebellious.
Backstory: Neith’s parents distrust with the Kalos education system led to Neith being home-schooled and taking online classes instead. As she grew up, she loved pokemon, helping her mother out whenever she could, and couldn’t wait until she could get her own. However, just before she was to get her own pokemon, she contracted a rare illness, causing her to miss her chance. Even after she recovered, her mother was too worried to let her leave, taking until recently to allow her to finally become a trainer.
1. Family: Neith’s mother, Sara Nimr, moved to Kalos after meeting her future husband, Liam Howard, where she works as a nurse in one of Lumiose City’s Pokemon Centers. Due to her job, she had little time to spend with Neith, and she was often called away when she did. Despite this, she is very supportive of her daughter, though a bit overprotective.
Her father, worked in the Kalos Power plant. After meeting Sara on a vacation to Unova, the two started dating, and eventually Sara moved to Kalos and the two were married, with him taking his wifes name. After Neith was born, Liam quit his job to focus on raising his daughter, becoming a stay-at-home dad and teacher.
2. Pokemon experience: Aside from the Porygon incident mentioned below, she learned a lot about how to care for injured pokemon from her mother due to her job.
3. Past experience that has defined your character: When she was 12, a few weeks before she was to get her first pokemon, Neith came down with a rare sickness, which caused her to be bedridden for close to a year. During this time she learned a lot about computers and how they work; starting with patching in dummied out content in video games, and moving on to coding her own add ons.
A couple of years later, she came across an abandoned Porygon 2; something had gone wrong in the evolution, and instead of it evolving normally, it had corrupted and glitched out, causing it to look halfway between Porygon 2 and Porygon Z. Neith took it home and attempted to help it, managing to do a “factory reset” back to it’s first form; a normal Porygon. Afterwards the family adopted it and seeing how Neith cared for it finally convinced Sara that her daughter was ready to become a real trainer.
4. Special Talents: PC coding/hacking.
Special Pokemon: The aforementioned Porygon? (Assuming that you mean we can’t have ones from Sinnoh instead of Kanto?)
Personal Goals: Meet lots of Pokemon and discover all she can about them, make some real-life friends.
Pet Peeves: People who break the rules to get an advantage themselves, People who abuser and/or abandon pokemon, Cars and other enclosed motor vehicles, or being stuck inside things full stop. (Travel sickness + Bedridden = this.)
