History: Penchant – or who most Pokémon prefer to call him, PC or Pen – was barely old enough to know about the Second Great War. Both of his parents were part of another guild, and early on PC idolized his Cinccino father, Mince. Mince was an extremely experienced explorer and guild member, even achieving the task of forming his own team. PC had heard plenty of tales of great feats.

PC's regret, however, was that he didn't never did hear enough from Mince. Almost a decade ago, Mince was sent on a mission off in the Mist Continent, along with his team. The last he had heard of Mince was that he had sent a letter from Post Town, but after a few days his team returned from the dungeon with him nowhere to be found.

PC attempted to emerge himself from the shadows of his father's achievements. After Mince's mysterious disappearance, PC and his Lilligant mother Angio moved to Capim Town in the Grass Continent. While PC liked his mother, she was permissive, and he was allowed to run wild and get into his own fair share of trouble. He was also known for avoiding consequences...at least in the short term before he inevitably got caught.

Finally, it was the time where PC couldn't simply stay in the small town of Capim, which was feeling more and more constrained the older he was. Somewhat like his father, PC had the ambition to become something more. Angio, as much as she was permissive and restrained, was reasonable, and while PC at the time had no long term plan in mind, he was given enough to go to another place called Valiant Village. From then on out, PC was an explorer.

He had traveled for some time before he finally arrived near the village, and had overheard that there was a guild there. He was interested in joining, and while PC had admired his father for his achievements, he wasn't quite sure if he should be traveling down the same path his father did or if he should tread down a different path.

Personality: PC isn't quite certain about who he wants to be – an adventurer and explorer like his father or something else, but regardless of his goals, he is ambitious and unrelenting. Under his rules, there's no such thing as giving up, even at the expense of his health. However, his need to achieve also clouds his reasoning, but thankfully not his moral standards; PC often commits to on-the-spot decisions to help others and attain victories, even if it's not the most practical or rational solution. He gets fierce if anyone questions his abilities and would gladly show his skills to prove someone wrong.

He is also curious – no action ever goes unexplained under PC's eye, and if anything happens he would make sure that he would get down to the bottom of it. Rarely does some vague rumor satisfy his questions. Sometimes, it gets him to strange situations which boils his blood with excitement. Occasionally, PC turns out to be mature and philosophical, being slightly above average age of the typical guild member, though it is brief and more likely than not his attempt to act cool.

The young Minccino has some quirks of his own. PC is almost obsessed with the idea of being a hero like his father that he would memorize one-liners to use if the moment arrives; in fact, he writes it down in his notebook (also notable is that he is a fast scribbler). PC is also conscious of his appearance, and would hand-comb his hair or tail whenever he is idle. Scrapes or a bit of dirt on his fur irritates him to no end. He dislikes staying near slobs too long, especially Poison-type Pokemon. Whenever he is fearful, his tail curls towards his face.

In combat, PC relies on his speed to take down his foes. Being a good runner and climber, he takes advantage of his surroundings to dodge incoming attacks before going in for a barrage. His fighting style is aggressive and quick, as he usually can't handle dragged out fights, as it wears him down too much.

Important Items: A black, small notebook that can fit in his bag. He writes down anything that is of interest.
