Bio: Stella for most of her life has lived at the bottom of the ocean among other water pokemon. Day after day she went through a similar routine. One day she might scuttle over to the reef to get a snack. Other days she'd scuttle over to the sand bar to lie out in the sun. Overall her life was rather boring. Stella wanted to leave and find some more fullfilling to do, but as far as she was concerned there was no other place to be.
One day however, what looked like an especially large pokemon (which Stella would later learn is the rare Lapras) swam gracefully over the waves. Stella decided to follow the pokemon along as her curiousity got the best of her. She scuttled for what felt like miles of open ocean with no end in sight. Gradually she noticed that the surface of the water was lowering and lowering. Then, before she could even process what happened, she was standing on a beach, with sun in her eyes and trees off in the distance. The Lapras and it's strange looking passengers looked down on the Krabby with interest.
Stella had finally found land. There was many things to see here; sights and smells, people to meet and neat things to see. There were also many things that looked fun to pinch, but she surpressed the urge to pinch other pokemon as best she could. Stella decided that she didn't want to live in the ocean anymore. The surface world was so much more fun! The young Krabby had a lot of adjusting to do if she wants to fit in among surface pokemon, however.
Appearance: Stella's shell had a silver gleam that many Krabby lack. Stella's Claws also have jagged edges, giving the illusion that they have teeth of their own. While these are menacing in appearance, they serve no other purpose then to boost Stella's ego.
Differences: Stella's hard shell has a pleaseant silvery gleam. While her shell was developing Stella had a diet that was rather high in mineral content, and it shows. This gives Stella a natural affinity using steel type moves that others of her kind simply do not.
(I'm debating whether I should change her type to include steel or just make it so that she learns the occasional steel move from level up, but it's up to the GM whether the second option would be okay. Perhaps she wouldn't gain the steel type until she evolves into a Kingler?)
