Name: Sloane Jackson
Age: 18
Gender: female
Powers/Mutations: Sloane is temporarily able to sink an entire area into darkness, cancelling out all light effects including but not limited to: man made light sources, night vision goggles, and Pokemon made light sources. Not even the moon or sun can penetrate her darkness. She is not sure exactly how large her radius is, but more than about ten feet puts enormous strain on her and the longer she keeps the field up, the harder it is for her to maintain it.
Affiliation (and Position): Sloane is, for the most part, neutral. However, she does lean towards the side of the Task Force due to being in a close relationship with one of the members.
Appearance: Sloane is a 5'3 (1.6 meters) Caucasian female. She normally wears a gray or black shirt with a black hoodie and blue jeans. Her shoes are a worn pair of black sneakers that haven't been cleaned in a while so they're coated with dirt and mud. Her hair is a baked brown that sinks down to her mid calves when not pulled back. However, she usually wears it in a braid, with a black bandanna on her head, which causes it to shorten to her waist in length. She has brown eyes that are lighter in color than her hair and a scar on her left cheek in the shape of claw from a quilava attack when she was younger.
Sloane is fairly able physically. However, her left knee is her main weakness. It tends to lock and cause pain randomly, forcing Sloane to carry a silver walking stick to relieve pressure from her leg. Her knees tend to pop when she bends them but otherwise there is no other sign of her prior injury. She also wears contacts because without them she is blinder than a Zubat. However, she does keep a pair of purple glasses on her just in case her contacts get lost or something. Her back in a black messenger bag with a red silhouette of Yvetal on it.
Personality: Sloane is very optimistic. She likes to look at the glass half full and won’t stop trying until she feels she’s done her best on something. She is a tad bit lazy though. She’s never fond of climbing hills or stairs. In addition, if someone else can do it and they can do it better than she, Sloane will be very resistant to performing said job. She isn't a fan of being bossed around but knows when to take an order. Sloane's a bit easily distracted, especially around Pokemon since she loves caring for them. Sloane also loves anything dark type or shaymin themed, which is usually what Dylan's gifts to her consist of.
Sloane cares a lot when it comes to others. She values other people's lives before her own and will not hesitate to take a hit or even a death blow if it means saving someone else. Sloane also values Pokemon lives above her own, willing to do the same for a human if it meant saving a Pokemon. It's her main fatal flaw. She also cares a lot about Dylan. She likes the way he doesn't control her but also keeps her calm.
Sloane has somewhat of a short temper if you know buttons to push. If you get her angry, she'll either throw a temper tantrum like a child or go on a war path and channel her anger into her actions; this includes battling. She does, however, try to keep her temper under control and will attempt to warn people if they're successfully angering her.
Sloane also has quite a bit of fears, including heights, the sound of thunder, and (ironically) darkness. As such, she actually hates to use her powers since it cloaks her in the thing she fears most.
History: Sloane was abandoned as a baby at the doorstep of the Ecruteak City Kimono Girl Temple. From then on she was raised as a Kimono Girl trainee until she was sixteen. At sixteen, Dylan managed to bargain with the Kimono Girls to allow Sloane to try a different career path, since Sloane continually failed the tests to become a full fledged Kimono Girl. Sloane and Dylan then began to travel the world together when they could, with Dylan often having to randomly leave for work but returning shortly thereafter when he could. How Sloane ended up in the rift, however, none could have expected.
Sloane was visiting Sinnoh with her boyfriend, Dylan. They were traveling along Route 209 and had planned to set up camp for the night in hopes of encountering a Spiritomb, which were rumored to lurk in the area at night. Sloane had been especially eager to catch one since they were especially strong Pokemon. Nevertheless, while they were setting up camp that night, the world became especially distorted. Sloane waved it off as just drowsiness, but she did feel especially strange after that. Sadly, she spotted no Spiritombs that night. Dylan had to leave the next day, so Sloane decided to rest in Solaceon Town for a bit before hunting for Spiritombs again. While she was resting in an inn room a few days later, she woke up to the whole room being pitch black dark and freaked out. The darkness dissipated almost immediately, but Sloane found she could replicate it if she concentrated enough. She reported it to Dylan as soon as she could, with Dylan reporting back that he had something strange going on as well. Dylan picked Sloane up and decided it was best to bring her back to the Task Force for the time being. Hopefully they could give the two a better explanation.
Pokemon Team:
-Excalibur the Shiny Umbreon: He was a gift from the Kimono Girls that Sloane was raised by. He was her first Pokemon and, just by luck, happened to be shiny. When Sloane decided to become a dark type specialist, Excalibur evolved into an Umbreon. Excalibur is Sloane's closest Pokemon and it is rare that Excalibur is not in Sloane's party. He's also her strongest Pokemon as well. Excalibur is extremely loyal to Sloane and will protect her by any means possible.
-Caliburn the Weavile: Sloane's second Pokemon, Caliburn was obtained when she was just a Sneasel. She had been abandoned by her trainer just outside Ecruteak City after she had failed in single handedly defeating Morty's Gym. Sloane found Caliburn while training Excalibur and raced her to the Pokemon center. Nurse Joy traced Caliburn to her old trainer, but the trainer expressed his disinterest in continuing ownership of Caliburn, so Sloane took her instead. While Caliburn is not as close to Sloane as Excalibur is, the two are very close, and Caliburn is also a rare sight for the PC. Sloane evolved Caliburn on the one year anniversary of their journey together.
-Carwennan the Houndoom: Sloane caught Carwennan on her first trip to Kanto. Dylan had taken her to visit the region and, upon entering Route 7, the couple encountered a wild Houndour. Sloane caught her almost immediately and began to raise her. Carwennan is strongest in the double or triple battle areas, often working with Caliburn and Clarent to take down their opponents, but she is decent at single battles as well. She's also as much, if not more, protective of Sloane than Excalibur is, as Houndoom are naturally territorial. Carwennan is sensitive though, as people tend to be afraid of her since she's a Houndoom and that hurts her feelings.
-Rhongomynyad the Greninja: Often called Rho for short, Sloane received this Greninja as a Froakie from her boyfriend as a birthday present. Dylan had travelled to Kalos and obtained a Froakie, just to send it back to Sloane. Rho is the silent type, often avoiding any sort of encounters with others unless absolutely necessary. However, Rho does enjoy a good fight. His ability, Protean, makes him ever fiercer of a battler as Sloane has ensured his moveset is quiet diverse to cover many types. Rho is the newest member to Sloane's team.
-Llamrei the Honchkrow: Also a souvenir from Sloane's visit to Kanto, Llamrei was also caught on Route 7. She is mainly used for sky battles and flight, but overall, Llamrei is not really fond of battling. The Honchkrow prefers to let others do the work and she be used as a quick get away. As a murkrow, Llamrei was commonly attacked, resulting in scars covering her back and wings, and giving her the discomfort she faces in battles today. Her evolution was a result of Dylan giving her a dusk stone.
-Clarent the Zoroark: A birthday gift from Dylan, Clarent is the most mischievous of Sloane's Pokemon. He often likes to go off and play pranks, but his battling skills are some of the best on the team. Clarent strikes quickly and fiercely, often knocking out opponents in one hit if he can help it. His illusion ability also allows for him to appear to be one Pokemon, resulting in his weaknesses to be partially disguised, and further granting him some shelter for the time.
Other: Her boyfriend is Dylan Thomas.

Name: Dylan Thomas
Age: 20
Gender: male
Powers/Mutations: Dylan can conjure illusions for a short time, but the more realistic the illusion and the longer he has to hold it, the more strain it puts on him.
Affiliation (and Position): Task Force- field agent
Appearance: Dylan is tall, about 5'11 and the average weight for a man of his size and age. He has short brown hair, somewhat tanned skin, and is built well. He tends to wear blue, and at the time of his transformation, he was wearing blue jeans, a pink t-shirt with the words “Fairies aren’t just for Girls" on the front, and a blue jacket. He also had his favorite blue fedora with a pink stripe on it.
Personality: Dylan is a calm, cool, and collected guy that can easily reason himself out of any situation. He cares a lot about others, more so than himself, and would sacrifice himself for the sake of others. He also likes his girlfriend, Sloane, a lot and constantly worries over her since she is not in the best physical condition, resulting in many phone calls back to her, whenever he can manage them.
Dylan cares a lot about his Pokemon as well, constantly checking on their medical and psychological states. He's also very passionate about his work, because Dylan believes that the safety of the region is of the upmost importance. He even puts work before his relationship, even if it sends him all over the place. Dylan wants nothing more than to protect everyone, and his biggest fear is that one day he'll be forced to make a decision between the lives of the people he's trying to save.
History: Dylan was born and raised in the Sinnoh region. His family traveled quite a bit across the region so Dylan was given the rare opportunity to visit most of the major cities in Sinnoh. His favorite stop, however, was Celestic Town. Dylan was enamored by the stories of rare dragon Pokemon and the myths of their once strong rivals, the fairies. It was also here that Dylan met his uncle, Johto Champion Lance. After that, Dylan was regularly thrust upon Lance to visit Johto. The first time he visited the place, he hated the entire trip up until he arrived at a festival in Ecruteak city. It was there he met Sloane for the first time. The two quickly bonded and two years after that, he finally got the guts up to ask Sloane out on a date. Shortly after turning nineteen, Dylan joined the Sinnoh Task Force, a dream come true for him. Following that, Dylan made sure to take up every mission he could, even if it sent him to other regions, but also worked out time to spend with Sloane, since he was constantly worried about her and felt the most assured about her safety when he was right next to her. Then, this happened.
Dylan and Sloane were camping out on Route 209 hunting Spiritombs. Dylan was actually asleep when the rift hit and never realized the two had been affected until Dylan left. Days later, Dylan suddenly found that whenever he was hungry or thirsty, he would start to hallucinate food or drinks in front of him, except the hallucination would wear off as soon as he touched it. Dylan realized this wasn't any mere hallucination when some of his coworkers said they could see the food too, and then Sloane called in with her power. Dylan realized what had happened and went out to bring her in to the Task Force, both for her safety and for a proper explanation as to what exactly had happened.
Pokemon Team:
-Becquerel the Sylveon: It was a gift when he first started his journey. Dylan considers Becquerel his partner and the two have been close since Dylan first received the Eevee in Sinnoh from his grandfather. Becquerel evolved when the two visited Kalos for a mission and they're very close. Becquerel is also somewhat overprotective of Dylan, often growling and challenging anyone that he is unfamiliar with that approaches Dylan. But he's also extremely loyal and would never betray Dylan if he had the choice.
-Fei the Gardevoir: Dylan caught Fei when he was on a mission in Hoenn. She is quiet and tends to he very shy around others, but not without reason. Fei was abandoned as a ralts by an abusive trainer that didn't like her because she was slower at growing than the rest of his team. She's especially close to Mark, the Gallade, since they both grew up in much the same area. They're the Pokemon equivalent of best friends, and there's nothing romantically going on between them, but they're Dylan's main double battling duo.
-Mark the Gallade: Dylan caught Mark shortly after he caught Fei. While he's not part of Dylan's fairy type expertise, Dylan made an exception to catch Mark since he made Fei more comfortable. Mark is also the quiet type, but much more so than Fei. He also can appear quite intimating even though that is not his intention. Mark often communicates to Dylan through his own variation of sign language since Mark's psychic powers aren't the best. However, Mark and Fei usually communicate through telepathy, which is one of the reasons why they're such close friends.
-Marigold the Aromatisse: Marigold was a reward for Dylan after one of his missions in Kalos. She's a weak Aromatisse that barely survived an attack from a group of Weezing and Koffing. As a result, she's not the best battled and mainly focuses on healing, but even then she's not that good. Dylan has shown to be the best at coaxing her to perform well. He's helping her work through her weakness to become a great healer.
-Melody the Togekiss: Hatched from an egg that Sloane gave him for his birthday, Melody is Dylan's main form of transportation. She's very fast and an exceptionally strong battler. Melody loves to fly and battle. She's very competitive and is always ready to get into the ring if she's needed.
-William the Wigglytuff: Dylan caught William while exploring Kanto with Sloane. William is somewhat aloof and gets distracted quite easily. He really just kind of wants to laze around and eat all day, much like a Snorlax. However, on occasion, Dylan has shown to be able to coax a true warrior out of William. The Wigglytuff is Dylan's trump card since William is by far Dylan's strongest battler.
Other: His girlfriend is Sloane Jackson.
