So here's a quick breakdown of all the stuff I'm looking for on your character sheets

Faceclaim: [what your character looks like without the armor]

Armored Form: [If you want to include an image of what their Unity Armor looks like, you are welcome to do so, or you can just descrive it below]

Quote: [Let's see some of your character's personality!]

Name: [Pretty self-explanatory]

Age:

Status: [What faction does your character belong to? Are they a Knight? A member of Decree? Or are they unaligned? If in the academy, please include either the year or their role on the faculty]

Appearance: [Basically put anything here that isn't specifically shown in the faceclaim or give details about the armored form if you can't provide an image.]

Personality: [What are the strengths and flaws of your character? How do they respond to the world around them? Make sure you keep it balanced]

Biography: [Give us an intro to your character and the events that led up to them being where they are now. How did they meet their partner Pokémon? Was there some major event in their past? These are the things I want to know! Two or three short paragraphs will work, but I'm not expecting a whole book]

Partner Pokémon + Unity Abilities: [Unlike other Pokémon stories, your character is going to only have one Pokémon on their team. This is the Pokemon you achieve Unity with. You may have other Pokémon, but they aren't Pokémon you'd use in battle (i.e. a Gastly may hang around your room, but he's not going to listen if you give him orders). In addition, this is where you'll give information about your armor. What abilities does it grant? Can it use magic? Is there anything special about it that ties into your relationship with your partner?]

Likes: [What are some things your character likes?.]

Dislikes: [What are some things your character dislikes?.]

Quirks: [What makes your character interesting/unique? Give me some of their more 'unique' traits. This can be more realistic things like being night person, or you can get a little ridiculous with some anime tropes if you wish]

Age: 16, almost 17

Status: 2nd year student at the Knights' Academy

Personality: Alan is pretty extroverted. He's not afraid to solicit strangers for conversation and loves getting people to laugh or smile. He'll often gas people up as a "sincere joke", and is pretty thick-skinned. Although he doesn't hate losing, he likes winning more, and has a bit of an ego. At times, he can be stubborn or confrontational, but he's hard to make genuinely mad. He doesn't take much seriously other than battles, which he takes extremely seriously, sometimes even when he's trying not to.

Biography: Alan had a rather ordinary childhood. His mother was a Knight of Rallen and his father ran a flower shop. They had a large garden in their backyard where they grew most of the flowers, and it attracted a variety of pokémon to their home. Eventually, however, at the age of 14, he and his father got caught up in a plot against his mother made by Decree. They forced their way into their home, busting down the doors and eventually attacking his father. Alan didn't know what to do. His father told him to run, and in the panic of the situation, he did. Though, As he thought it through, he wasn't confident he could escape trackers with Unity powers for long. Perhaps that was just an excuse not to leave his father behind, but he decided he was either going to save his father or die trying. As such, he went to the gardens and beseeched all the pokémon within for help. They were all pokémon he had known for much of his life, pokémon he grew up with, but most weren't confident they could take on the intruders. He still hadn't managed to trigger the Unity phenomenon, and as much as he tried, he couldn't rally the pokémon to attack together. Time was of the essence, so he gave up, cursing the pokémon, calling them selfish and ungrateful, but just as he turned around, he found a Spewpa quietly waiting behind him. He knew this one; it was the son of his mother's Butterfree. It wasn't exactly what he was looking for, but beggars can't be choosers, and at least it could use Protect.

He rushed back into the house, carrying Spewpa, and immediately put himself between the assailants and his father. Spewpa managed to block a single attack for him and retaliate with Stun Spore, but he knew better than to expect much from him. Right after guilt-tripping the other pokémon, he wasn't about to let Spewpa fight an unwinnable battle, so he never let go of it, protecting it from every attack that came their way. He knew the only way they'd make it out alive was with Spewpa's disabling abilities anyway. It was during this time when he was being cut, burned, and beaten to a pulp that he finally awoke the power of Unity, donning Unity Armor and finally being able to fight on even footing... with one of them. His father was unconscious and badly wounded, so he scattered Rage Powder to drag the fight outside, back to the gardens. Using himself as a distraction, he managed to allow his Spewpa and even some of the other wild pokémon still in the garden to gang up on the attackers. They became inundated with negative status effects, paralyzed, slowed, and struggling to inflict meaningful damage, but they were far stronger than an amateur and a bunch of wild pokémon. They eventually burned the garden down, forcing the wild pokémon out of hiding and soon after, out of the fight. They gradually beat Alan within an inch of his life, unable to land a decisive blow but having nothing to fear from him and Spewpa in return. It was only at the last possible moment, when Alan's legs gave out from under him and he fell to his knees did help arrive. His mother had come personally, and finished the assailants off with a single Hurricane, putting out the fires and leaving the arrests to her compatriots. Attending to her son was more important, but all Alan could think about at the time was his dad.

His father died that day, unable to be saved from his injuries even with the medics they had brought. Alan came to regret listening to his father, wishing he had never left him. Even if the more logical side of him recognizes the futility of stopping or even delaying the attackers without Unity armor, he never got to say goodbye to his father, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't let go of the feeling that he failed him.

Alan eventually decided to become a Knight, like his mother. Although protecting people is one of his goals, he can't say he chose his current path for purely moralistic reasons. He mainly wants revenge on Decree, seeking nothing less than their complete dissolution.

Partner Pokemon: Spewpa. He keeps an eviolite given to him by Alan tucked within his cloak and knows a variety of uncommon moves. He possesses the hidden ability, Friend Guard, and is not particularly capable in 1 on 1 battles. Contrary to Alan, Spewpa is rather reserved.

Unity Abilities: After entering his armored form, Alan gains a massive defensive boost, covering his body in a chitin-like armor and providing him with a fur cloak highly resistant to cutting forces and magic attacks. He gains large gauntlets on either hand that can emit various powders (Poison Powder, Rage Powder and Stun Spore) or create and launch webbing to help him disorient, weaken, or distract his opponents. Finally, he is capable of a small selection of magic abilities, able to channel electricity through his webbing, letting him perform Electroweb attacks. He can also create energy barriers; either a short-lived one to block attacks, (Protect) or a weaker but long-lasting one to continuously dampen attacks on an ally. (Friend Guard) From an offensive perspective, Alan's armor form does almost nothing for him, only able to poison and moderately electrify. He can simply wrestle people into submission, but this is easier said than done against armored opponents.

Quirks:

• Tries to be extremely positive with people. Success is mixed, and it's not always welcome, but he genuinely finds it enjoyable to ambush people with compliments just to try to get them to smile or turn away in embarrassment. Either is fine.
• Real life-or-death battles put him on edge, and although he is very confident and capable in terms of keeping calm under pressure, the stiff and serious demeanor still bleeds into his behavior in less serious battles, causing him to seem standoffish. It's a huge contrast to his cocky attitude when playing sports or games and he's been trying to remind himself to loosen up, with mixed success.
• Never lost a mock battle at the academy by knockout
• Never won a mock battle at the academy by knockout either.

Age: 16

Status: 2nd year student at the Knights' Academy

Personality: If Calliope could be described in one word, it would be theatrical. Growing up in a family of performers has given her a flair for the dramatic. As such, she's loud and peppy, moving with exaggerated gestures, and she doesn't always get when said behaviour annoys others.

She has a deep admiration for the Rallen Knights, because of the songs glorifying them, and becomes star-struck whenever she meets an accomplished one. She aspires to be like them, however she still has a rose-tinted view of the world, believing it to be as it is in the stories. She thinks in terms of black and white, good versus evil, without realising that her heroes are flawed and conflicts are more complex than history makes them out to be.

Biography: Calliope was born into a troupe of travelling musicians. Between constantly moving from place to place, and hearing tales of epic deeds, she developed a sense of adventure from a young age. She longed to someday accomplish something great, like the subjects of many songs, the Rallen Knights.

When Calli was 12, her mother became sick and passed away, leaving her the Altaria who'd been her performance partner. Said Altaria, Seraphine, helped her cope and step into her mother's shoes, singing along as Calli composed her own songs on her lyre and performed for people.

The music played by humans and Pokemon alike in the troupe drew cheering crowds, but also attracted the wrong sorts. Some of the Pokemon, such as Clefable and Wigglytuff, were particularly rare - hence, targets for poachers. One night, a group of thieves ambushed and attacked the wagon. Calli was only 15, and had no idea what to do, but she wasn't going to just stand around and do nothing while her loved ones fought. The knights immortalised in song certainly wouldn't. As Seraphine dived into the fray, fending off the attackers, Calliope herself physically tried to pull a Mightyena off of her brother before it could bite him.

The Mightyena turned on her, but Sera saved her, knocking it away with Moonblast. That was when her Unity power awakened, an elaborate blue costume and protective cloak replacing her usual attire. With her newfound agility, she sent the thugs stumbling backwards with a gust of wind, brandishing two airy swords. The tables having turned in the troupe's favour, the would-be thieves retreated.

Shortly after the incident, Calliope was accepted into the Rallen Knight's Academy, where she now trains to be like the heroes she sings about.

Partner Pokemon: Seraphine, the Altaria. Although she enjoys singing and dancing just as much as Calliope does, she's much more calm and sedate. Since the passing of Calli's mother, Sera has taken on some maternal traits, such as fussing over Calli and fixing her hair. And of course, becoming fiercely protective if her trainer is in danger.

Unity Abilities: While Calliope's "armour" may not look like much, it's built for ease of movement, and her fluffy cloak is much, much tougher than it looks - she can use it to dampen incoming attacks, much like Cotton Guard. She can also use it to glide short distances, and channel a small amount of magic which creates wind bursts.

In terms of weapons, she gains two shortswords. Her fighting style involves a technique similar to Dragon Dance - the more she dances, the stronger and faster she becomes. She becomes surrounded by a blue aura while doing this, and can achieve up to twice her base speed and strength. However, if her dance is interrupted (for example if she's hit or distracted), the effect ends and she has to build it up again.

Finally, with a song and an effort of will, she can slightly heal one person at a time (a variation of Heal Bell).

Dislikes:

• Bullies

• Cold weather
• Waiting
• Being told to shut up

Quirks:

• Often hums and whistles to herself.

• Playfully treats ordinary situations as more epic than they are, for example a casual sports game.

Faceclaim:

Armored Form: [If you want to include an image of what their Unity Armor looks like, you are welcome to do so, or you can just descrive it below]

Quote: if you have any sense at all, I suggest you get out of our way!

Name: Lillian Valecourt

Age: 17

Status: Third Year Student at the Academy

Appearance: Lillian stands at exactly six feet tall. She's used to being the tallest woman in the room at any given time. She has perfect posture, something that has been ingrained into her since young. She moves with elegance and grace. Things a princess should always have. She has a slender build, but still has a feminine figure. She was born with fair skin that does not tan easily. Her hair is long, silky smooth, and perfectly straight. It’s naturally blonde, and and her bangs are side swept. She normally wears it down, but does put up for occasions that require it. She has a heart shaped face, with a small upturned nose, and her features are soft and feminine. She has bright blue eyes, a feature that is common in her family.

When it comes to clothing, Lillian wears only the best. Her royal gowns are made from the finest silks and fabrics you can get. She wears elaborate gowns around the palace, usually in various shades of purple, the color of the Royal family. Around the academy, she wears a more practical purple dress and overcoat. It is still made from expensive fabrics most people can’t afford. On her feet are purple boots that are more comfortable than the heels she often wears around the palace. She also wears a lot of gold jewelry, as is common for royalty. Her most prominent accessory is her golden tiara that sits on her head. A symbol that she is next in line for the throne. She is never seen without it.

When using unity, she dons special armor. It is white in color, and has red and blue triangles patterns carved into it. Her entire body is covered with matching chestplate, greaves, gauntlets, shoulder pads, and cussies. She also wears tall white boots, as well as a flowing white cape, and her signature gold tiara on top of her head. She also has a hair clip of white feathers with red and blue tips on the side of her head.

Personality: Lilian is a true princess, and carries herself as such. Since birth, she was taught to be elegant and graceful at all times, and still holds herself to those standards. She's a cool, calm, and collected young woman, who can keep a level-head when going into stressful situations. Her calmness also means she doesn't openly show her emotions too often. She is very slow to anger, and if she finds something funny the most you'll get is a smirk. When she talks to someone, she'll be blunt and get straight to the point. Lilian is not shy and submissive in the slightest. She was trained to be the queen one day, which means she can't allow people to walk all over her. She will not hesitate to correct someone she deems is being rude.

Until she started attending the academy, Lilian spent much of her time on her family's estate. She was homeschooled her entire life, and taught all of the rules and expectations that come with being the future queen. She spends a lot of time alone, or with her Togekiss. She doesn't have much experience dealing with people who don't work for her. She expects to be treated like a Princess at all times, and as such often doesn't know how to respond when she isn't. She also can be a spoiled brat at times. She enjoys living the glamorous princess lifestyle, being given lavish gifts, and having wealth to spend on whatever she likes. Her mother was a well respected ruler, and she knows she has a lot to live up to. Lillian is eager to prove herself the best queen this kingdom has ever seen.

Her calm nature sometime makes her come off as cold to others, but that assessment couldn't be further from the truth. She's actually quite friendly around people she actually does know. She does have emotions, it's just that one has to try very hard to get her to show them. In conversation, she is a great listener, who will quietly and politely take in and absorb what others have to say. She pays attention, and offers advice if it's wanted. She's also very good at calming people during bad situations.

She has a fascination with myths and legends, and has read a bunch of books about them. She is particularly fascinated by Zaican, and often prays to the legendary before doing anything important.

Biography: The queen of Rallen and her husband wanted children. It was their duty to produce heirs. They've tried many times to conceive, and would either fail to do so, or miscarry. After praying to Arceus many times, the queen finally got pregnant, and carried the child to term. Queen Sophia gave birth to a baby girl.

Queen Sophia and her husband were thrilled to have a daughter, and loved her dearly. Queen Sophia is well loved within the Rallen Kingdom. This puts a lot of pressure on Lillian to live up to the standards set by her mother.

Lillian was groomed to be the next queen. She was given etiquette lessons, and given a very expansive education to teach her everything she would need to know in order to become a good ruler. Lillian worked very hard to excel. She was determined to be best queen this country had ever seen! Lillian didn't really have much time to spend socializing with others her own age. Her only friend was a Togepi named Apollo her mother had gifted her when she was young, that evolved into a Togekiss over time.

When it was discovered that Lillian and her Togekiss could achieve the unity phenomenon, she was immediately enrolled into the Knights Academy. It was important for a future queen to be able to defend her country herself after all. Despite being surrounded by others her own age, Lillian didn't have much interactions with her fellow students. She was preparing to be the next queen, she didn't have time for friends. The Companionship of her Togekiss was good enough.

Partner Pokémon + Unity Abilities: Lillian’s partner is a Togekiss named Apollo she’s had ever since she was a child. He is her closest, and honesty only companion. In addition, he serves as a mount for her in battle. Even he is gentle and kind towards his partner, he is not one to be messed with in a battle.

In her unity form, she gets a white lance with red and blue triangles on it, and small wings on the sides. In her Unity form, she gains magic over air. Whether that’s summoning blades of air to slash at opponents (Air Slash) Summoning gusts of wind that leave behind a trail of pink dust (Fairy Wind) or summoning a whirlwind that boosts her and her allies speed (Tailwind)

She can also use magic to heal the wounds of herself and her allies (Life Dew)

Likes:
Pretty dresses
Sweets (You wouldn’t expect it from her, but she does)
Myths and legends
Cute/Pretty Pokémon

Dislikes:
Having nothing to do
Rude people
Messes
Being underestimated

Quirks: Insists on being called Lillian, Princess, or Princess Lillian. Only close friends/family members are allowed to call her Lilly.

Is a morning person. She feels like the day is wasted if she wakes up too late
