Sebastian Liastine
Age:
25
Gender:
Male
Allegiance:
Nobody
Weapon:
Bow and arrows, sometimes poisoned, as well as a hunting dagger
Pokemon: Appearance
Species:Rayquaza
Name: Quazar
Moveset:Dragon Ascent-Dragon Dance-Iron Tail-Hyper Beam
Personality: Quazar is rather relaxed, prefering to wander aimlessly in the sky. He has a strong sense of righteousness and keeping the world in balance. When that balance is threatened, he will do all he can to right it.
Appearance:
Personality: He is a free spirit, never staying in one place for too long and swearing allegiance to no man. He likes to spend his days in the forest, hunting, foraging, sleeping. He can be rather cold to those he doesn't know at first, but give him some time, and he'll be rather quick to open up, if he likes you. He has no qualms in battle, however, as he will kill without mercy or regret. He tries to avoid conflict, seeing it as a waste of time and unecessary, but if you push him hard enough, you'll regret it.
Biography: He was once a part of the Lurian noble house Liastine , the heir to it in fact, but they fell to a coup' de tat from a rival house when he was only ten years old, and were secretly slaughtered or forced into the rival family on pain of death. The only reason he escaped is because his father sent him into the Sky Pillar, a tower their family had built way back in the beginnings of the nation. It is a mystery, as no one knows what resides within, and those who have climbed it, have either never come down, or were dropped from it's mighty height by an unknown beast. It is said that it must only be climbed by in a time of tragedy for the family, less they face disaster from their ancient guardian. Sebastian ran up the tower, for who knows how long, when he reached a balcony. On the balcony, slept Quazar, the Lord of the Skies. Scared, but determined to help his family, he approached the beast, ultimately placing a hand on its hide. That awoke the beast, as it rose up staring at the boy who had awoken him. For awhile, that was all, until he rested again. Before Sebastian could say anything, he was hit by an intense wave of energy and emotions flowing through his body, connecting him and the ancient beast. Then the beast rose up again, floating low to the ground towards Sebastian, and placing a strange metal gauntlet at his feet from where it had been hidden on the balcony. In the gauntlet was a strange stone, of which Sebastian had never seen before. He sensed from Quazar that it would somehow unlock a hidden power within the legendary pokemon. Since then, they now spend their days being sorta vigilante's in their endeavors, and ultimately, just being free.
Other: He has the trainer Mega stone, but he and Quazar don't have a close enough bond for Mega evolution
He cares not for either human's or morphs, but if either bother him, he will not hesitate to take them out.

Username: Pirouette



Name: Lady Millicent "Milly" of House Cheviot
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Allegiance: Luria
Weapon: Milly usually arms herself with two short tempered blades. One has a very dull edge and serves multiple purposes such as non-lethal dueling/sparring and protection in combat. The second blade is a very fine, sharpened blade serving only one grim purpose. Milly isn't the type that enjoys killing but in self-defense she has no problem with taking a life.

Appearance: Milly is not the best example of noble fashion. Instead she dresses rather plainly, and more specifically, like an off-duty knight. Her hair is usually tied up in a simple bun to prevent distraction in her hobbies. Her clothes are nice and definitely tailored but they aren't flashy and usually a bit dirty. Sometimes she wears a padded leather jacket with a small emblem right over her breast, adorning the Cheviot House Sigil, a black sixteenth note crossed with a sixteenth rest on a light blue background.

Personality: Milly is, as you can imagine, a bit tom-boyish. She explains it as her dislike for the refined elegance of nobility rather than her desire to appear "manly." Nobility just seems like an excuse to be distant from everybody else. There isn't an opportunity to learn how the world really is by just sitting around in concert halls or manors. It is a suspension of reality by living in nobility and Milly doesn't like the idea of being delusion to the world. She doesn't outright hate it, in fact, she is grateful that she isn't forced to work for a shitty life. She knows she has had it good but in her words, "noble people suck". It was really all the people that turned her away from the posh life of nobility and not the nobility itself. This is best summed up by her name. Millicent is a rather refined title and she loves her name but the people that really know her cut out all the "Lady Millicent" crap and call her "Milly".

Outside of that, you'd probably find Milly to be a bit distant, no sense of humor, and seemingly mad at something when you first meet her. Eventually that coldness warms up and she doesn't not really care who you are. Poor or rich, morph or no.

Biography: House Cheviot is semi-major hold in the Luria continent but not for the reasons you'd expect. This house never lead any crusades or was the deciding factor in any battle, but rather, this house was always famed for its ability to schmooze and entertain greater lords. Generations of great musicians, dancers, and actors all helped build the Cheviot family up by charging ludicrous amounts for their services but some Houses were willing to pay that price. Finance turned into power which lead to the purchasing of land, therefore expanding the power of the family. Since the beginning, children of the House were to always learn a trade of the fine arts. They got to choose but as long as they mastered something. Millicent chose to master dueling, much to the dismay of her parents.

Dueling wasn't necessarily a fine art but historically, the Cheviots had some great fencers and duelists so it was an allowable selection according to the family tradition. Millicent's parents were not too pleased because being the firstborn, it unofficially meant that you had to a real class act and for a time, Millicent's parents did not believe that Milly could learn how to be a real lady by dueling. Gender roles weren't as strict as some alternate dimensions but they still existed. A lady shouldn't be fighting but Millicent did and she won. It was by winning that her parent's began to sort of accept it.

As it turns out, it was a great spectacle to see a woman duelist beat male duelists. Winning didn't happen all the time but the fact that Milly could beat just about anybody at anytime only helped other lords and ladies to respect the Cheviot name. So until Milly's parents pass and she is required to return to rule the house, she will just keep on wandering the world, challenging any lord or lady who wishes to fight. And it wasn't just her fighting, eventually Milly allowed challenges for Mel to face a lord's or lady's Pokémon.

Pokémon: Meloetta



Nickname: Mel (Only Millicent uses the name)
Species: Meloetta
Moveset: Relic Song, Psychic, Close Combat, Acrobatics

Mel is a bit uptight and pretentious, even refusing to interact with people of perceived low-birth. She (for the sake of pronoun usage) loves attention, compliments, and the chance to perform but will almost always deny a peasant's request. Millicent has slowly made an impact on Mel, opening her up to the world. She isn't outright repulsed by commoners but her unease is noticeable. One would presume Mel would dislike Millicent greatly but deep down, Milly knew Mel would like the attention and adoration that commoners give her.

One other thing Millicent has been doing for Mel and that is combat training. Mel was always used for performances of dance and song for nobility and never for combat. Mel was a showcase of class and as the firstborn female, Meloetta was usually trusted with the firstborn in hopes of teaching the first born how to sing and dance like a proper lady. Well Millicent learned how to sing and dance pretty darn well but in return, Milly taught Mel how to fight proper, using her own experience in training and the House's Trainer for advice.

Despite Mel's better attitude, she still hates Morphs as she believes them to be unnatural. Physically she can sense them, too.

Addendum:

Meloetta has two forms and can change form by using Relic Song. After a time she'll change back into her original form, Aria Form, which is pictured above. The second form, Pirouette Form is this here:

If a name is underlined, it means that they cannot be chosen as player Pokemon.

Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres - Mythical bird Pokemon that are said to rule over Oceans, War, and Storm, respectively. All three are bound to the three most influential noble houses in Luria, and their competitive nature extends to their houses and act aggressively. The most common legendary Pokemon, there are at least 10 roaming Luria at the moment, most of which serve alongside nobles. The others... well, they're known to become territorial once in a while.

Entei, Suicune, and Raikou - Mythical beasts tied to the domains of Loyalty, Peace, and Storms, respectively. All three are bound to the three noble houses closest to the king of Pheonixis. All three houses tend to cooperate, but trend towards inaction. Second most common legends. Seven of each, all serving noble houses loyally.

Mew - The All-Mother, thought to be the origin of all life. Very rarely appears to humans, and to those that she does show herself to are either blessed or in need of salvation. Not bound to any person or noble house, she roams the land without much purpose.

Lugia and Ho-Oh - Guardians of the seas and skies. Legends speak of them creating hurricanes that could wipe out entire kingdoms and bring the dead back to life, but their power appears to have become muted ever since they made pacts with the ancient king's family. Obviously, bound to the main royal families of Luria and Pheonixis. There are perhaps three or four of each, the infants are taken care of in complete secrecy. Each prospective king grows up alongside them.

Celebi - Odd sprite-like beings that appear around forests to ensure that they are not corrupted or destroyed outside of natural influence. Said to travel through time to prevent catastrophe. Usually bound to shrines, some of them seem to have obtained a sense of wanderlust and travel with those that they deem pure. Celebi do not interact with each other except in moments of incredible crisis, to see two of them in the same place is an omen of doom. In reality, there is only one Celebi, all the others are the same Celebi from a different timeline or a different place in time.

Regirock, Registeel, and Regice - Golems made of stone, steel, or ice. Many people do not consider them legendary Pokemon due to their history and their oddly commonplace nature. They are the creations of an ancient titan, locked away by an ancient civilizations in fear of its power. They can only be awoken by rare artifacts, and are eternally loyal to the person who awakened them until they are ordered to become dormant once again. Usually used by nobles and merchants as guards or bodyguards, currently over 50 have been unearthed in ruins. Some have even been active.

Regigigas - Legends speak of an ancient titan who formed the land after a cataclysmic battle between the land and the sea. His creations aided humanity's development, yet something drove him mad. He attempted to destroy that which he created, and was sealed beneath miles of earth. Even now, it is said that sits in his prison, waiting for his revenge. Now, nobody even knows his name.

Latios and Latias - Long recognized as symbols of true love and great fortune. Latios represents the hero, and latias his fate. Often worshipped by adventurers and hopeless romantics. They do occasionally produce offspring, and entrust the eggs to human couples that they deem worthy. Strangely, two pairs have never been seen at the same place.

Groudon, Rayquaza, and Kyogre - The masters and creators of the land, air, and sea. When the world was young, Groudon and Kyogre fought endlessly until they were stopped by Rayquaza and placed in a deep slumber, under the land and seas that they once created while Rayquaza retreated above the clouds. Only Rayquaza has been seen in the past, perhaps once or twice in all of history. Curiously, the three noble houses that chose them as their patron gods have fallen, or have began to fall, in some way or another.

Jirachi - The slumbering genies. These creatures are very rarely seen, and even more rarely do they wake up. There are around five scattered through the world, but it is believed that there are many more hidden within caves or tucked into inconspicuous corners of storehouses. A Jirachi can grant any wish once they are awake, and then return to their peaceful slumber. They can only be woken up by a tremendous expressions of power, intelligence, art, or cunning, though the exact thing needed varies from Jirachi to Jirachi. Jirachis have come to be considered family treasures, and are guarded to prevent the unscrupulous from getting a wish.

Deoxys? - An odd being from lands beyond human comprehension. Nobody knows what it is, what it wants, or why it does it. Most people aren't even aware of its existance, and consider it a boogeyman used by parents to keep their children away from dangerous places. Some claim that the being has communicated with them in the past.

Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf - The Lake Guardians, a trio of spirits that inhabit lakes, the concepts off Knowledge, Emotion, and Willpower were born from them. They each have the ability to grant those qualities as a boon, but also have the ability to take them away and leave someone an emotionless husk. Their true purpose in the world is unknown, the only thing they do is lay within sacred lakes and dissuade intruders from entering them. There are many Lake Guardians around the world, but every single one of them is part of a single collective conscience. All Uxies are part of a single Uxie, all Azelfs are one Azelf, etc.

NAME: Ellory Knotheart – "Ell"
AGE: 31
GENDER: Female
ALLEGIANCE: Phoenixis currently but ultimately to whoever can pay the most for her services.

WEAPON: Serrated knife (rarely), rope and pre-planned traps otherwise.

---

FERAL FORM: Marowak
MOVESET: Echoed Voice, Earthquake, Sandstorm, Substitute

Ell's Marowak form is like her human one: taller than average, strong, and ultimately rough-looking. Her most distinguishing feature in this form is the skull mask – not that of her own species but instead a Tauros – is split in half, just as the one she wears in her regular human form is. While her fur is only a few shades darker than usual, it is enough to set her apart as 'not normal' and make her easily recognisable as a morph; however, it is marred with scars and bites from various battles and in different stages of healing.

If she is forced into this form as a last-ditch attempt to save her own life, her typically aggressive, cautious fighting style flies out the window and is replaced with a jumpy, defensive one in which she will use all of her available abilities to escape rather than continue her hunt. In general, however, she tries to keep her status as a morph hidden.

---

APPEARANCE:
Ell herself stands at roughly 6'0", though it is difficult to tell through the tribal decorations she wears that add to her already impressive height. She walks with an impeccable posture, one of a noblewoman, and it is only when she is stalking her prey or purposefully trying to hide that it is broken – she seems proud of it, somehow. With dark, tan skin, she is easily associated with the warmest, sunniest regions of Phoenixis and is definitely someone who has spent most of her life working outdoors from the callouses on her hands. Her tattoos, drawn in black ink that has faded to brown over time, are of random, swirling runes and one which particularly resembles the sigil of an ancient, noble house.

As a whole, her outfit is designed to blend in with the vibrant colours of the forest with protective leathers stained green and beige and beads of many colours tied up in her hair. Her gold jewellery is the real deal and obviously expensive, but it is often seen with a liberal coating of dirt and mud as is every other part of her body. Adorned to her belt are the bones of various creatures, mostly Morphs but other impressive kills, too, like a feather from each of the legendary birds owned by enemy noble houses. It gives normal Pokemon even more of an excuse to avoid and distrust her.

PERSONALITY:
Ell prides her cunning more than anything, born out of her own self-interest in staying alive – she devoutly follows her personal code of do not trust and lie, lie, lie as a result, and has become quite skilled at it. Unsurprisingly, she is prone to bouts of loneliness as letting nobody get near her for long periods of time (though they would have no reason to, given her appearance) does very little to stave off the need for normal human interaction; however, she is tough and rarely, if ever, complains.

Still, surviving in the most treacherous environments is impossible without asking for some help. Ell can be very charismatic and is a good, clear speaker, justifying anything and everything even if she does not believe in it, like her current lifestyle. It has some crossover with her own flaw of deluding herself into thinking that Morphs deserve to be tried under the law despite being one herself.

HISTORY:
Ellory was born to the noble house Knotheart, once respected but now considered a disgrace with an illegitimate child ruling as heir over his shrinking territory. Ell was the official heir, at one point; however, customs dictated that she - as a female and a morph (a well-kept secret by her common mother) could not take over after her father's death. Rather than sit around as a damsel in distress, Ell left to forge her own path out in the wilds, becoming a jack of all trades when it came to exploring, fighting and, naturally, hunting.

Despite being a Morph herself, she spent quite a few years chasing down the more troublesome ones for the small villages that could do little about them. Staying away from the large cities (where she would almost certainly be caught), she acquired quite a reputation for completing any job she was given.

Only three years ago, a hunt went sour as she came face to face with a ghost Morph, a Haunter in a graveyard, and was confronted by a whole host of fearsome psychic attacks. Ell's life was saved by a young Cubone, only recently orphaned (from what she could tell). While it was her first failed job, she arguably got something more precious out of it; a travelling companion to protect as if it were her own.

She thinks she's going native.
