    Name: Kris Douglas

    Age: 26 years

    Gender: Female, will use she/her or they/them pronouns

    Resident or Visitor: Resident

    Occupation: Part-time clerk to a grocery chain, part-time student aiming to become a Pokemon Professor or aide to one.

    Appearance: Kris stands at about 5’7”, with short brown hair and brown eyes and sparse freckles, and round glasses. They’re a a bit chubby, often wearing a light yellow t-shirt, green jacket, blue jeans, and comfortable sneakers. She actually really likes earrings and nail polish, and has been trying to do patterns herself on her nails. She tends to like greens and yellows in said patterns.

    Personality: Kris doesn’t do very well with conflicts. She likes it when things stay in a routine. She likes it when things happen with minimal stress. She likes it when things remain how they did yesterday, because then she knows what to expect, and she knows how to deal with it. But when things start becoming more emotional and intense, when things get emotional and intense, she can’t think logically. She has some issues with anxiety, executive dysfunction, and rejection sensitive dysphoria. She’s sometimes had meltdowns and shutdowns, but her partner Pokemon was specifically assigned to her to help with that.
    Kris is struggling to prove to herself that she can survive on her own, but is hesitant to move too far away from the support of her parents. She had considered moving away when things started heating up in the Pokemon debate, but can’t bring herself to, as almost everyone she knows lives in Ryme City, and she’s scared she wouldn’t be able to find a new community or job, or continue her studies, and then leave herself stranded with no way to care for her Pokemon.
    She was raised by parents who wanted her to love Pokemon and disapprove of battling. However, recent events have her scared for both her own safety and that of her Pokemon.
    She’s still not interested in becoming a trainer or battling, however she wants a way to keep her Pokemon safe if the need arises, but she’s scared of the disapproval of her parents and the possibility of being arrested and having her Pokemon confiscated.

    History: Mr. and Mrs. Douglas moved to Ryme City because they believed themselves to be very moral and upright people who loved all Mew’s creatures and condoned neither battling nor trainers. They wished to live in peace and harmony with similar moral and upright people, and tried to raise their daughter to be a similar such person.
    For a while, they were quite pleased with their daughter, who while showing a great deal of interest in Pokemon from a young age, never seemed especially interested in battling and training. They did, however, start to get concerned when she began running into issues at school. At around 13, Kris was diagnosed with autism, and assigned a Pokemon to help her deal with meltdowns-- a Kirlia.
    Kris, for her career path, eventually decided that, though she still had no interest in battling, she was terribly interested in the moves and abilities of Pokemon, such as how her now-Gardevoir’s telekinesis and empathy worked, and began working to become a Pokemon Professor, after taking a few years to both find a stable home on her own and get a part-time job. She now has an appartment, a part-time job, and is going to start classes at a local university quite soon.
    Recently a coworker of Kris’, a resident who was quite pro-Pokeball, has been trying to bring Kris around to the cause. Kris wasn’t quite willing to tell them she wasn’t interested, and as a result, ended up with an empty Pokeball on her hands, which her friend left with her after she ended up admitting there are some benefits to Pokeballs. She’s not sure what to do with the Pokeball, and currently has hidden it under her bed.

    Partner Pokemon/Pokemon Team: Mint, female Gardevoir

    Other: Mint can use telepathy to communicate with Kris. Kris has discussed the issue with Pokeballs with Mint before, as well as about trainers, but hasn’t yet asked if Mint would like to be captured. Mint has tried to assure Kris in her worries that she wouldn’t be hurt or be made to go rogue, and Gardevoir can defend themselves quite adequately without need of Kris becoming a trainer or acquiring a trainer’s Pokemon.

    New information has emerged about RCPD's volunteer "specialist," Liesbet Redwood!

    Spoiler:
    Name: Liesbet “Liz” Redwood
    Age: 25
    Gender: Female
    Resident or Visitor: Visiting from Kanto
    Occupation: Professor in Training
    Appearance: 5’11” with a standard swimmer’s build type body. Bright green eyes that stand out against her latte toned skin and loosely curled chestnut hair that reaches her shoulders when let out of the high ponytail she usually keeps it pulled back in. Usually seen wearing a lab coat with the sleeves rolled up to the elbows over a pastel green button up she keeps tucked into a pair of khaki capris, but mostly unbuttoned to reveal a brown and cream striped cropped bathing suit top. She keeps her Pokeballs, as well as other equipment in a mostly waterproof, tan colored shoulder bag.
    Personality: Cheery and full of energy, Liz can be an absolute handful for people who don't know what to expect from her, though those who are familiar with her aunt know where she gets it from. She does, however, take her duties as a professor in training seriously, and knows far more about water Pokemon, as well as Human-Pokemon relations than most might expect. She's far smarter and more organized than you might expect, but will still confused most people by readily jumping into just about any source of water big enough to swim in. She adores Pokemon as a whole, but has a special spot in her heart for water Pokemon in particular, and is commonly known to warn people not to underestimate "weak" Pokemon--after all, the weakest Magikarp can evolve into the strongest Gyarados as long as they have a trainer or partner who loves and believes in them.
    History: Born as the third child of a five child family, Liz spent most of her childhood playing with her siblings and trying to navigate the utter chaos of her household. Growing up in Veridian City meant she spent a good chunk of her childhood surrounded by water, and the Pokemon in it became a source of fascination for the girl, however she initially dreamed of becoming a powerful water-type trainer like the Cerulean City gym leader, Misty. It wasn’t until her aunt, the airheaded Professor Redwood, stopped in for a family visit when Liz was seven that the girl changed her mind and instead set her sights on becoming a professor with a focus on the study of water types. She was offered a chance to start on her goal early when her aunt took up a position with a small lab in Slateport, Hoenn, and jumped at the chance to spend time studying the ocean and its Pokemon with her absentminded aunt.

    It was after a particularly bad storm three months after joining her aunt that she met the Magikarp that would become her first Pokemon. Though Liz had a poor opinion of the fish Pokemon (they’re so weak!), she found one stranded on the street outside the lab, and knew her aunt would be upset if she left it alone, so she took it back to the lab to get it some help. What she didn’t count on was her aunt making her spend time with the Magikarp, which she was forced to name (Puddle), and she soon took a larger interest in the dopey fish that eventually evolved into the Gyarados she keeps with her today. Her Vaporeon was a gift from her aunt in the form of an Eevee shortly after she turned ten, and she slowly acquired the rest of her team through travels with her Aunt over the years after becoming the woman’s official assistant.

    In more recent years, Liz has stepped away from helping her aunt in order to focus oin gaining her own Professor title and achieve her dreams. She’s spent a fair bit of time in most regions at this point, though she’s spent most of her time back home in Kanto, or in Alola with Professor Kukui. She dreams of eventually moving to Alola full time and studying the abundance of water Pokemon there...as well as working on her Mantine surfing on the side. It’d be pretty cool to become a Mantine surfing champ. In the meantime, though, she’s decided to make a stop in Ryme City to help determine what’s causing Pokemon to go rogue.
    Pokemon Team:
    Vaporeon - F - Splish
    Gyarados - M - Puddle
    Slowking - M - Ein
    Lanturn - F - Lumine
    Politoed - M - Linus
    Ludicolo - M - Marley
    Other: NA

    Name: Vincent Delacroix

    Age: 22

    Gender: Male

    Resident or Visitor: Visitor

    Occupation: Thief

    Appearance: Vincent keeps his dark hair buzzed and sports a chin strap for style. Tall and fit, he keeps a lean physique so as to be at peak performance for the job which requires calisthenics. On the job he wears a short sleeve black vest with matching gloves, jeans and ankle length boots. When not on the job he dresses for the occasion. This may entail a black short sleeve Oxford shirt with a red tie and khakis, or a sporty gray collared jacket with red stripes, blue jeans and sneakers.

    Personality: Vince is rather resentful but you wouldn’t know it. He tends to be very laid back, treating both adversity and good fortune frivolously. He likes giving others a hard time for amusement and welcomes others to return his jests. Even so, he can be serious when the situation demands it, especially his work. He has a genuine interest in learning about other people, what they’ve experienced and how they think. Some find him inquisitive and amicable, which isn’t really false, but it serves the perfect ploy.

    History: Vince was raised with his younger sister Opale in Saffron City by his mother amid trying circumstances. He began shoplifting at a young age to help his family out, his introduction to a life of crime. Petty offenses lead to still graver sin, and he found a useful accomplice in his first Pokémon, Eevee. Eventually he was recruited to team rocket while still young where he worked until the organization disbanded. He continues to steal and sell powerful Pokémon and whatever else may be of value. He comes to Ryme to take advantage of the city’s political unrest and civil disturbances.

    Pokemon Team: Umbreon (Moonlight), Hydreigon, Houndoom, Gyrados, Tyranitar, Zoroark

    Hmmm, I sense deviance. That does sound likely.

    I could also see him being forced to work with others against his will; perhaps blackmailed.
