The snow warnings had been broadcast and sign posted around the city for a couple of days but for Leo he fully intended on keeping his bar open. Having the place open meant that people had a place to see out the weather if they were unable to use transport in the surrounding area. He didn't have cots or beds beyond what was in his office, but he could at least provide people a place to see out the weather if needed. More than anything, it had plenty of supplies and was sufficiently insulated against the weather. Even if the temperature dropped enough to start to affect the interior's comfort level, there was plenty of extra clothing in the clubs lost and found. With a stockpile of food and refreshments, those choosing to see the storm out in the club would be looked after to the best of his and his teams ability.

He personally asked all those who were down on the rota to work through the blizzard, to still come in. All arrived as the snow began to fell and have been there since. He offered to pay them for every hour they were at the club during the blizzard, even if they ended up having to stay there for a couple of days. Money wasn't an object for him when he was trying to help out the people of the city he called home. For those who weren't down to work, including Dustynn, he provided several boxes of supplies for worst case scenario in the days leading up to the blizzard beginning. Tinned food, blankets and even candles. He made the effort to go the extra mile for those he cared about.

"Steve how is it looking out there mate?" Leo let go of the button on the walky talky in his hand. His head of security had been on the door most the day inviting in those walking past who may have no way of getting home. Several people had taken the offer of somewhere to stay and were enjoying the live music Marcus was providing, Leo deciding to put his newest staff members talents to use. "This is some biblical level shit boss. Even if you lived across the street, by time this is finished I think you'd need a snow plow to get you home." Leo sighed at the news, hoping that the reports were over exaggerating the severity of the weather. "Ok mate. Just keep rotating it between you and the guys you have in, I don't want any of you staying out there too long." Steve's boistrous laugh crackled as the speaker of the walky talky struggled with the bass of his voice. "Don't worry we're fine out here. Just keep that coffee coming and we can stay here as long as you need us." Leo sighed once more before ending the conversation with Steve. "Well just keep me updated."

As the conversation ended he began to pour out several cups of coffee and a tea for himself. Placing them onto a tray he made his way towards the stage and the make shift area they had made in front of it. Several tables and chairs had been put in front of the stage to allow guests to enjoy the music while being comfortable. He dished out the drinks to those that had already made it to the club and left Marcus' drink at his feet on the stage. Leo took a seat on a free table, sat back to enjoy the music and sipped at his tea while waiting for more people to arrive.

_Meanwhile...

Hey Dusty, I hope that you have everything you need for this
weather now. We've got the bar set up so hopefully we can help
anyone stuck. I mean even if we can help one person, it'd be
worth it. Besides, who doesn't love a lock in? lol. Also, I
promise that the second the roads are back open we'll head up
to Mount Atlas for that date that I promised you. It's such a
beautiful place, i'm sure you'll enjoy it. xx

Fungai

A species of seemingly low intellect who somehow achieved space flight, the Fungai are the brawlers of the galaxy. The smallest of the race start at 6'5" with the tallest approaching 8'. Their weights are equally large, continuing to grow until their dying breath. They are true warriors in every sense of the word after having a homeworld with minimal resources, meaning there was a constant fight for them. Fortunately when the Fungai achieved space flight they found enough resources to allow their species to survive. However, deep down, rooted in their very being is the will to fight and that makes them very worthwhile mercenaries and soldiers. Their sheer size allows them to strap several inches of armour to their torso's making them walking tanks.

In terms of their biology, there is no split gender although they would usually be referred to as he/his given their masculine voices. They reproduce by releasing spores into the air as they approach natural death. These spores pollinate with any vegetation it can find which then mutates and grows the eggs the Fungai hatch from. They can live up to 200 years but due to their preferred choice of work, few live to that point. Due to their fungal nature, the only real way to keep them down is to take out the brain which is located behind a thick skull. They are also capable of regeneration, being able to regenerate a lost limb in a matter of days.

Technologically speaking their equipment shouldn't work and looks like something a human child pieced together. However, through blind luck, what they create seems to work and function as effectively as anything any of the other races can create. They use projectile based ranged weaponry with melee weapons being made up of blade, blunt and chain based weaponry. Their armour is crude and is often only thick plates of metal strapped to their body. Only the rare few are capable of operating shield technology although it isn't a fine art and casts a wide bubble that can encompass a nearby squad rather than being a true personal shield. Also there are only a few capable of utilising magic. These few individuals are some of the most powerful magic wielders in the galaxy, however, they have little to know control over it. They could try to manifest a small fireball and end up unleashing a blast capable of incinerating an entire battleship. As such these Fungai are usually lobotomised immediately when any sign of magic capability is shown.

As with most Fungai, he is can appear very empty headed at times and rather stupid. In reality, what he lacks in intellect he more than makes up for with his courage and willingness to die for his brothers in arms. He doesn't tolerate weakness in battle whether from the enemy or his own side, however he fights with such ferocity that his allies cannot help but be inspired to fight harder. In his downtime he likes to look at pretty things to keep himself calm.

▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞ B I O ▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞▞
From a young age Gaz was mocked by the other Fungai due to his small stature. He was often teased but showed a ferocity that few other Fungai could match. Throughout his upbringing he was involved in fights with his peers, most of whom towered over him but their size didn't matter. He was in trouble regularly for beating up those who teased him and more than once found himself disciplined. Eventually he had a growth spurt and caught up with those who had bullied him for so long. His ferocity and new found size commanded respect and life became alot easier for him.

By time he had finished his stint in what the Fungai considered school, he became a gun for hire, wanting to make a name for himself across the galaxy. He worked over a thousand jobs over thirty years and is a well known entity amongst those who follow the world of mercenaries. If he is hired by someone, a mere mention of his name is often enough to make their target surrender such is his reputation. For those few decades he worked for different people without ever settling down with one organisation. That all changed when he found the Crimson Legion or rather, the Legion found him.

The Legion made an offer to Gaz that included an almost infinite supply of credits, a warm bed and regular meals. All that combined with the thrill of fighting made his decision to join a very simple one. He has been sharpening his cutting claw and the teeth of his chain choppa ready to go on a minutes notice. He has freshly painted his armour in a yellow coat and fully intends on recording any and all kills he inflicts. While bright yellow wouldn't be suitable for the surgical precision of stealth, Gaz's forte was being a skullcrushing sledgehammer and so the colour of it was irrelevant. In fact, deep down he longed for his enemies to spot him, it meant more opportunities to put a notch into his fresh paint.

He has only recently joined the Legion.

Scion: A modern Odyssey

Interested. Either going with something Welsh or Japanese.

Circus of The Supernatural

The calls of the crowds outside of his tent were calling for more, pushing and shoving past each other to try and get a glimpse of him and his show. Cries of 'encore' and 'we want more' were clearly audible but he had finished his show, for the time being at least. He moved towards the back of the tent to his small trailer from which he lived. He slumped down onto his suprisingly comfortable bed and stretched out his limbs as far as he could. The satifying feeling of each and ever fibre of his muscles stretching was followed by loud sigh. For a moment he continued to stare at the ceiling before returning to his feet.

Moving to a nearby desk he took a seat and began to delve through one of the desks drawers. Items he had accumulated over the years and with some meaning to him were left to roll around loose. However what he wanted was something much more edible. Eventually he came across what he was looking for, a wondrous and most delightful childrens treat, a Kinder egg. Such a simple treat but something that Connor had become slightly addicted to. The egg shaped combination of white and milk chocolate along with the surprise gift inside was a welcome treat after a long days performance.

He slowly peeled away the foil wrapper until it was left in a pile on the desk in front of him. His mouth began to fill with saliva as he moved the chocolate egg towards his mouth. He raised the chin of his mask to reveal his mouth beneath, opening it wide ready for his first bite. Then, before he could bite down, he was disturbed by the cawing of a Raven behind him. He slowly moved his hand away from his mouth, his free hand clenching tight. "One little chocolate egg...that's all I want...to be able to eat a damn chocolate egg after a hard days work." The raven cawed once more. "I will be there soon, just let me eat my damn egg in peace." A third caw from the raven pushed Connor over the edge and he squeezed both fists tight from frustration. He slowly opened his right hand and looked down at the crushed chocolate and destroyed toy from inside. "Bird...you have until I finish speaking or I will be eating you." Connor turned to find the raven gone. He tried to salvage what he could of the egg, taking small satisfaction from the remnants that weren't crushed into his gloves. He rose to his feet once more and made for the Ringmaster's tent.

Upon entering the tent he found the Ringmaster with his...well whatever Jay was meant to be. "I honestly hope this is good. I just broke my last egg!" Pointing at his chocolate covered glove in frustration, Connor continued on. "Speaking of which, double my order for next time. They are the literal definition of happiness in my life right now." Lowering his hands and placing them on his hips he got to the point. "So what is it we are dealing with?"

"Noibat use heat wave!" The flying pokemon responded to Corbin by launching a furious wave of flame at the Whimsicott opposite it. The flames enveloped the fluffy pokemon and licked at it with menacing fury, a cry bellowing from within the small creatures lungs. As the flames dissipated Whimsicott was left unconscious on the floor, before a red light drew it back into its pokeball. "Whimsicott return!" The voice of the short statured Aunt Flora commanded respect as she threw out the last of her pokemon, a freakishly large Chesnaught. Corbin was taken back by it's size for a moment, towering over his almost exhausted Noibat.

The battle between the pair had raged for a while with Aunt Flora making effective use of the terrain to take an early lead. Some poor typing choices made things even more difficult but Corbin's most loyal of pokemon Noibat had managed to tear through the majority of her team using it's fire based attack. The biggest issue for the young trainer however was the clear signs of exhaustion taking over his Noibat. His next move was a simple one for him.

"Noibat return! The bat like pokemon returned to it's pokeball. With a launching throw Corbin sent Riolu out into the field. I need you to hold out as long as you can...just long enough for Noibat to catch its breath. The thought and plan was a simple one, he just needed Riolu to last long enough to give Noibat enough of a breather so that it could finish off Chesnaught. "Riolu i'm counting on you!" The pokemon turned and gave his trainer a look of determination capped off with a menacing grin. Turning it's glance back to it's towering opponent Riolu took it's fighting pose waiting for instruction.

"I have to say Sully I have truly enjoyed this battle. Whatever happens I hope you'll stay for dinner afterwards." Corbin laughed at the suggestion, his stomach was still full from the three course meal she'd prepared prior to the battle. "While i'd love to take you up on your offer I don't think I could take another bite." Flora looked slightly dejected by the turning down of the offer. "No matter then. Let's finish this...Chesnaught...Hammer arm!" Her pokemon immediately sprung into action, closing the distance towards Riolu quickly. "Riolu use the trees!"

Chesnaught drew it's thick arm backwards and thrust it forcefully towards Riolu finding nothing but the floor. Dirt and grassed kicked up into the air as the ground shoot from the force of the blow. Riolu had sidestepped the blow and made for a nearby tree, hiding behind it. The Chesnaught seemed to laugh as it charged the tree, swinging its arm once more. The force split the tree across the middle, spitting splinters out into every direction. With an loud creak the tree began to fall to the side, revealing the hidden Riolu. "Bullet punch!" Corbin's shout was acted upon immediately, Riolu launching itself towards the Chesnaught. The small pokemons fist connected against the grass types jaw, rocking it's head to the side. Riolu landed several feet behind the Chesnaught and made for the nearest tree. Shaking its head and looking extremely peturbed, the Chesnaught gave chase. It had taken the attack from the smaller pokemon personally and wanted some semblance of vengeance.

"Chesnaught stop." Aunt Flora gave the command as Riolu took up its hiding position once more. "Use seed bomb!" Chesnaught kept it's distance and instead rounded the tree from range before launching a vicious barrage. The smaller pokemon tried it's best to evade the attack but noticed it too late. It raised it's arms to protect itself but each hit caused an audible crack, the sound of the impact giving away just how forceful the attack was. Soon enough the barrage finished leaving Riolu battered, bruised and on one knee. Not willing to relent Flora gave the order to finish him off. "Hammer arm!"

Chesnaught charged forward, it's bulk shaking the ground beneath its feet with each step. Corbin watched on as his pokemon awaited its fate. Pulling it's arm back once more Chesnaught threw it forward with a ferocity far past anything it had thrown previously. "Reversal now!" Corbin's Riolu reached up and grabbed hold of the Chesnaught. Using the grass types own momentum Riolu launched it head first into the nearby tree. Branches and leaves rained down to the floor beneath as the pokemons head rattled the entire tree. The grass type hit the floor with a thud before rising back to it's feet. A grimace of pain remained on it's face as it rubbed at the top of the head, looking out for a follow up attack by Riolu. Unfortunately for the smaller pokemon it had expended all of its energy to launch Chesnaught into the tree and had collapsed to the floor. A cheeky grin was spread across it's face as it was recalled to it's pokeball having been knocked out.

Corbin looked down at his remaining pokeball, Noibat I hope you're ready...it's all or nothing now. Throwing his pokeball, Noibat emerged before it hit the floor. The pokemon had found it's second wind and wave ready to take on Chesnaught. "She looks like she has made the most of her breather. How about we put it all on the line? One last attack...no tricks. Last pokemon standing wins." Corbin smiled at the proposal and put full confidence into his small companion. "Ok Flora, if that's what you want." The young trainer and gym leader paused briefly before shouting out their commands almost simultaneously. "Chesnaught, Take Down!" "Noibat, Razor Wind!"

Both Pokemon barreled towards each other with dangerous intent, the entire battle resting on the seconds that followed. Chesnaught let out a roar as it launched itself towards Noibat, it's full weight being used as a weapon against the small pokemon. "NooooooibAAAAAAT! Corbin's pokemon furiously slashed through the air with it's wings launching a strong, cutting gust of wind directly into the Chesnaught's face. As the attack hit the Chesnaught's limbs became limp before it aimlessly crashed to the ground. For a moment there was silence as both Flora and Corbin waited for Chesnaught to rise, but fortunately for the young trainer it didn't.

Flora raised her arm and returned Chesnaught to its pokeball. She hung her head for a moment before looking back up at Corbin with a wide smile. "Congratulations Sully! I have no pokemon left to battle with meaning you are the victor and proud new owner of the Rainbow Badge!" Corbin clenched it fist and thrust it into the air in celebration. Yeeeees! Noibat you did it! Running into the battle arena Corbin headed towards Noibat, a smile stretched across his face. The small bat like pokemon flew to it's trainer and friend, the pair embracing as they enjoyed the victory. However as the pair hugged, the body of Noibat began to glow bright. Corbin could feel Noibat's body growing in his grasp, pushing his arms apart. As the glowing light grew the weight began to push on Corbin before it forced him to the ground. Looking up at the light as it faded revealed that Noibat had evolved into Noivern. It's giant ears flexed, it's eyes shut and it's mouth stretched wide with a smile. Corbin's mouth was wide open, the joy he felt at the evolution making it difficult to think. He wrapped his arms around his pokemon once more. "I knew you could do it!" His newly evolved pokemon let out a soft sound of agreement. "Come on then Noivern let's get that badge so we can get you a bowl full of spelon berries." Almost instantly the pokemon launched itself into the air, the sound of it's favourite berries name more than enough to get it to move.

As Corbin rose to his feet he was greeted by a smiling Flora. "I haven't seen someone be that close with their pokemon in a long time. Trainers these days just tend to see pokemon as tools rather than the companions and friends that they are." Corbin nodded in agreement with Flora as she continued on. "Anyway, here is the badge." Corbin took the badge in hand and marvelled at it for a moment before placing it on the inside of his jacket. "Thank you Flora. That was one of the best battles i've had. It came right down to the wire." The older woman smiled. "I have to agree, it was exciting to have it come so close at the very end. Anyway, are you sure I can't cook you and your pokemon a meal?" Corbin reluctantly shook his head. "Sorry Flora, I need to get these guys to the pokecenter and I think Noivern deserves a treat. Besides, it's the solstice festival." Flora bowed her head in acknowledgement. "Ok Sully. Well I wish you well on your journey, it truly was a pleasure to meet you. Hopefully our paths will cross again in future." Sully nodded before looking up at Noivern flying high above the arena. "Noivern! Time to go get your spelon berries!" The pokemon turned on a ninety degree angle and shot down towards the ground beneath. Moments before impacting the floor she slowed her descent, landing comfortably next to her trainer. "Goodbye Flora." "Take care of yourself Sully. Goodbye Noivern." Corbin's pokemon politely bid farewell to Flora with a call of its own name before the pair left the gym, heading towards the Celadon City Solstice Festival.
