Main Character (Kid) Application
Name: Tavros Nitram
Starter Pokémon: Peter the Cleffa
Hometown: Fuschia City, Kanto
Appearance: An unfortunate accident in the Safari Zone cost him the use of his legs and he now uses an old, squeaky wheelchair to get around. This makes him a lot shorter than most trolls his age, though his mohawk and large horns do add a few good inches. As far as body type, his arms and chest are toned from hauling himself over the rough terrain of his hometown of Fuschia. Some trolls mistake him as older than he really is due to this and the brownish-grey hue of his eyes. Comfort is key when it comes to adventuring and travelling and he discovered that shorts were less likely to get caught up in his chair. A black t-shirt with his symbol is worn beneath a black button-down shirt, paired with multipocketed cargo shorts and the amazingly fashionable socks and sandals combo.
Biography: Tavros grew up with his lusus, Tinkerbull, on the outskirts of Fuschia near Cycling Road. His lawnring was filled with other lowbloods and he was quite the outgoing youth, spending time racing down the road or sneaking into the Safari Zone without the gold-toothed warden finding out. But everything changed whenthe Fire Nation attackedhe suffered an accident at the hooves of a herd of pissed-off Tauros. The irony was not lost on him. He became more secluded after the accident and gave up his dreams of being the best Pokemon Master for a year, at least until a chance encounter with a wailing Cleffa.
Personality: He comes across as shy and timid 99% of the time but inside he's stubborn and self-reliant. He has a bunch of different interests including stories, rapping (badly), and anything Pokemon-related. This is the guy who has Clefairy-print boxers and an autographed copy of Hook by troll Robin Williams. He has a tendency to rush into things or speak without thinking and can be quite the jerk, but it's never on purpose. People who are ruthless and exploit Pokemon like Team Rocket really upset him and he daydreams about defeating their secret leader. More than anything, he longs to not be seen as a worthless, helpless lowblood and wants to be the hero of his own story.
Goal: Communing with Pokemon and other animals and lusii has always been his talent. He hopes to be the greatest Pokemon Trainer in the world, though realistically he just wants to have fun and do something without letting his disability get in the way. He could also see himself as a Pokemon Breeder.
((EDIT: Changed starting Pokemon cause Jade and Tav can't be arguing over whose Growlithe is more kawaii.))
