[PXFIRE] [SU/DS] PXFIRE Roleplay - A Game of Storms

[Morzone]

This whole shbang starts tomorrow, I should probably finish writing these up.

Name: Theo Myrsky
Species: Quilava
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Team: Steel scavengers
Description: Theo is, for the most part, a normal looking quilava. Roughly 3 things set him apart: On his right fore-paw there is a small birthmark of Pure-white Fur. He keeps his as clean as possible, as he doesn't want the white to become dulled. Theo is almost always wearing his flight goggles, usually on his forehead except for when he's in the air. Finally, he wears a smaller-than-normal Dawn Stone on a chain around his neck. Apart from these he'll have a general air of grime around him from working in Julia's workshop.

Personality: Theo is a reserved pokemon. Originally he was shy, but after growing up in black Lotus' Hellscape of a nation, he generally just avoids opening up to people. Even with Julia he'll try to keep his distance, though she knows him well enough to know all the thin walls. Still, if you do manage to break through, you'll find Theo is actually a rather simple person who hides in his own imagination to get through troubles. There is an optimism buried in him, as well as a burning desire to always do the very best he can and to prove himself to not just be Julia's assistant. He's also rather bright with a desire to learn what he can and understand the things he doesn't.

Background:
Theo was born and raised in Sabinal. For the most part his childhood was "normal." Meaning his parents, a typhlosion and a Luxray, both worked with their heads down, never asking questions and staying out of trouble while working hard to keep Theo and his brother Shawn in check. This was difficult, considering Shawn, A luxio, was always looking to prove his strength in battle and Theo had a habit of going exploring.

The trouble started when Theo was 8. He strayed slightly farther through the city than normal, ending up in a desolate and abandoned park. There he met a Kirlia by the name of Mara. The two talked and became close friends instantly. For About a month the two would continue to meet at the park, Mara never wanted to go outside the place with Theo, and avoided an explanation whenever Theo asked her why. The two grew closer until each had a definite crush on the other. It wasn't until the very end of their time together did Theo learn the Truth. Mara's father, a gallade, was in fact a soldier and Captain working for the Black Lotus. He had Despised Mara's very existence ever since she'd been born a girl and unable to evolve into a gallade like him. She Gave Theo a dawn stone, something she'd had since birth as a reminder of what she should have been, and told Theo when she was with him she could forget about her father.

But that night It all ended. Mara's father, a terrible and horrifically cruel pokemon, barged his way with some of his men into Theo's home, angrily proclaiming the sins Their son Theo had done, and that he had decided the family would pay with their lives for allowing his waste of a daughter some happiness. Both theo's parents were slaughtered by the Gallade, Theo only managing to escape thanks to his good knowledge of the area from all his exploring. Shawn had been late home that night and missed the attack. Theo never knew what became of him, but hoped he was alive.

For about a month Theo wandered alone along the banks of the NorthCrack River, until he neared CoalRock City. That's when he met Julia, A weavile a few years older than him. She seemed to understand him on some level unknown to him, and she took him in to her shabby little shack. The two stuck together, at first out of mutal need to survive, then because their technical skills, something Julia had been quick to try and teach him, became famous in the city. Julia and her assisstant Theo were known to be able to fix anything.

Theo's first excursion into the area of flight came one day during one of his moody flashes, when he was 15. Angry with life in general, Theo hijacked a plane a customer had brought to Julia to repair. Ignoring all Angry shouts of the plane's owner and Julia, Theo took off. And apart from a bit of a shaky start while he got used to the controls, and a less than smooth landing, he flew with great potential. Ever since then Theo studied flight, encouraged by Julia, who would help him to build his ideal aircrafts.

Neither Theo nor Julia remember the exact time Steel Scavengers took over CoalRock, but they were quick to pledge their allegiance to the group. Julia for her own reasons, Theo because deep down he still held a burning desire to discover that Black Lotus Gallade and make him pay for everything.

Name: Julia, last name Unknown
Species: Weavile
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Team: Steel Scavengers

Description: Julia is almost Never Clean, always having some amount of soot and grime on her from her work. Her hands look well worn from years of manual work, and she has a burn on her left arm and right side of her chin that discolor her skin slightly. She's almost always found wearing her tool belt, a belt of leather pockets containing Wrenches, screw drivers, hex keys, Nuts and bolts, Duct Tape, hammers, and her Blaze Jewel. She also keeps with her her Lucky 2-sided Crescent Hammer Wrench. It's old looking, but it still works and gives a good lump if you're hit over the head with it.

Personality: Independent is probably the most accurate way to Describe Julia. She does things her way at all times and isn't afraid to make a sharp comment or get in the face of those who annoy her. That said, she's careful not to pick fights she can't win because while she at first seems only to care about what she wants/decides, Julia is actually very protective about things special to her. She doesn't like to admit it, but she has a motherly side to her that comes out only when she thinks no one is watching. Otherwise her sharp smile and glinting eyes stare down life every day, as if daring it to try and give her lemons.

Background: As far as Julia can remember, she'd only ever lived in CoalRock City. She never knew her parents, but her earliest memories include several people calling her "Julia" so it surely must be her name. Living in a small, patchy closet-like shack, Julia only ad one real option if she wanted to make through each day. Learn to use her hands. In the Continent's greatest mining town, your only options were to mine coal, work at a factory, or become a mechanic. Julia opted for the third, spying on any mechanic she could find, snatching and stealing tools when she could, and slowly learning to build and repair machinery.

Slowly her shack improved as she put her new skills to work improving it, and at the same time she began to have a reputation as a mysterious thief mechanic who seemed to know as much about machinery as good as she was at getting away from the black Lotus soldiers who came looking for her whenever she stole from their mechanics.

One day, when she was 14 and collecting driftwood at the river, Julia met a bedraggled and lost looking Quilava. Instantly Julia knew This kid was at least somewhat like her: alone, always on the run, but with a great potential. She brought the id back to her shack and began to teach him the various mechanical skills she's picked up. Theo, as the quilava's name turned out to be, learned fast, but as she taught she found ways to improve techniques, mastering metal working. And with that, she decided she'd had enough running around and thieving. With Theo's help she transformed the shack into a garage and shop where she could work on and fix any machinery brought her way. Word of her skills moved fast and business went well, or at least went well until the black lotus decided to cut her down size every now and again for stealing business.

It wasn't long after She'd met Theo that the Steel Scavengers took over the city, but she knew at once this was an opportunity. Not only was she tired of her tools being broken, her materials smashed, her walls busted holes in by the black lotus, but she knew these people would be able to help her protect Theo, who she cared for like a younger brother. A small bit of light in a very tiring and stressful world. His eventual discovering of his flight skills delighted her, and gave a purpose to see hat else she could put her mechanical skills to work for. She began to build engines, then cars and even monster trucks, delighting in driving large and powerful vehicles while watching Theo;s latest plane soar through the sky.

Honestly, I just needed some inspiration for how, precisely, Laura heard about the Prankster Platoon, and that Sawsbuck seemed absolutely perfect for me! XD

Hey, however you guys want to do it is fine with me! I just thought that was a very interesting precursor plot point that you both decided to share.
