Marcie [+]

APPEARANCE: Standing at 5'6", Marcie has a flowing head of bright red hair that she allows to grow out rather long, only occasionally getting it trimmed when she happens to be in a sizeable enough city. The bright red of her hair is offset by her bright blue eyes, which are oftentimes sparkling with a mixture of enthusiasm and excitement, a split-second hint before someone's eyes move further down to see the nearly perpetual smile she sports.

She doesn't tend to fuss over her wardrobe, almost always seen wearing a plain white sleeveless shirt beneath a worn black vest that she never bothers to button up, mostly just using it as a place to store her pokéballs. For her bottoms, she's likewise almost perpetually wearing a pair of jean shorts, though she's been known to dabble in skirts from time to time, mostly on special occasions.

PERSONALITY: When the many people Marcie has met think of her, the first word that comes to their mind is usually a three-way tie between 'outgoing,' 'competitive,' and 'loud.' And in a sense, those three words rather neatly summarize her. She has a generally easygoing and friendly nature, always quick to make new friends but never sticking around in one place long enough to really establish long lasting relationships, though not necessarily because she doesn't want them. It just seems that her wanderlust and need to continue reaching new heights keeps her too mobile to settle down for a moment and really get to know someone.

This is, of course, symptomatic of Marcie's intense desire to prove herself. Ever since she was little, she's known that she's wanted to be a pokémon trainer, and now that she finally is one, she tackles every new day like it's the very start of her adventure. More often than not, she spends her days and nights out in the wilderness, training and spending time with her pokémon, the six truly lasting friends that she has, especially since it provides the free space to keep them all outside of their pokéballs. Even when in a crowded area, she tends to have at least one or two of them out at all times.

When it comes to battling, Marcie has a fierce but not unfriendly competitive spirit, always looking to prove herself but never reluctant to praise those who best her and those who she bests in equal measure. It seems she's found a like minded team of pokémon, as all of them share her enthusiasm for battling, though whether it's because she selected them for that trait or if it simply rubbed off on them after spending time with her is hard to tell.

HISTORY: Marcie was born and raised in Floaroma Town, close to nature and, by extension, close to pokémon. She's always been fascinated with these strange and wildly varied creatures, but it didn't extend much further than that until she was eleven years old, when she had a chance encounter with the Champion of the Sinnoh League as she happened to be passing through - Cynthia. Seeing the incredible bond between her and her pokémon, Marcie immediately knew that she wanted to have that same bond with her own pokémon someday. From that day, she would often spend time out in the fields or in nearby Eterna Forest, playing with wild pokémon and learning more about them in her own way.

Finally, at the age of thirteen, she had had enough of being confined to one place, not getting to see the vast world of pokémon that was hinted at whenever a trainer stopped in the town in the middle of their own journey. She set out for Sandgem town, and pleaded her case to Professor Rowan. Despite her obvious passion for pokémon, she was still actually a bit surprised when he almost immediately agreed to give her her very first pokémon: a Chimchar, which she promptly named Inferno. Overjoyed, she spent every waking moment for the next week bonding with her new friend, until eventually she began battling. As soon as she had her first epic encounter with a Bidoof, she knew battling was exactly what she'd been born to do. She began training Inferno every day, journeying around to tougher areas of Sinnoh as he grew stronger and evolved, even catching some more pokémon along the way, blazing through gyms until she finally ended up at the doorstep of the Elite Four at the young age of fourteen, eight badges in hand. Fighting hard, she and her team made it all the way to challenging her idol, Cynthia. An intense battle ensued, but despite their best efforts, Marcie and her pokémon were defeated.

After her defeat, she promised Cynthia she would travel the world, and come back to challenge her again when she was strong enough. Now, after five years of doing just that, her team is not only complete, but seemingly ready to challenge her greatest rival once again. However, having been traveling the Kalos region, she heard about the Starlight Festival being held at the Delphinium Archipelago, and of course the battle tournament that would be held. Now she has come to the Archipelago to participate in the tournament, though if asked by anyone else, she would say she came to win it.
