—General Character Questions—
[ There is a one paragraph minimum for the appearance, biography, and personality ]
Full name: Alexandria Warren

Age: 17

Appearance: Alex is nearly a young adult who stands at an average height of 5'3" with a slender pear like framed body. She has silvery white hair [If it being natural isn't allowed, than I will say it's dyed just for the sake of I love silvery hair coloring] and icy blue eyes that seem to have a strangely cold gaze for one so young. She is often wearing a green and brown outfit with a hood and cloak to help her blend into the darkness of the forests although on rare occassion she will change her attire to match whatever environment she has taken to in order to try and study the Pixelmon.

Personality: Although she has an intimidating appearance due to her almost cold glare, her personality doesn't help - she is mostly a very quiet individual who doesn't say much unless you are her friend or her family. She has always been this way as most of her time was spent growing up around Pixelmon, thereby, she tends to be more open and calm around them than around actual people. She also has a very sarcastic nature towards others, although she can be sympathetic or empathetic if she truly cares about you. This makes it hard for her to make friends, although it doesn't stop her from trying ... sometimes.

Biography: Alex was born in the Hoenn region, not any city in particular though and was raised primarily by her grandparents and her father on a pixelmon ranch. As for growing up, Alex wasn't much of a social butterfly with other people and often avoided others at school in Fallarbor although she loved playing in the grass and in the forests near the Pixelmon. While playing around on the ranch, she befriended a great deal of her father's pixelmon although she desperately wanted one for herself - her father told her she had to wait until she was fifteen or until one decided to stay with her like his pride and joy of a Growlithe did. This made her very determined but also disheartened as several years passed and she was now going onto fourteen and still had no 'friend' in a pixelmon like her dad did. It was in this particular span of time though that she grew to fear ghost type pixelmon as a stray haunter caused quite a trouble at the school, scaring a majority of the students back to their homes.
On her fifteenth birthday though, her father kept his promise and so he let her pick out a small egg to take care of and hatch - he told her that whatever hatched from the egg she picked would be her first Pixelmon and likely her best friend for awhile. As time passed, eventually the egg began to crack and when it finally hatched, it was a tiny little treecko. It seemed unusually small but it still won over her heart - the two became inseperable as they would explore the ranch and walk to school together. At the end of school though, Alex wanted to see more of the world and learn of more Pixelmon than she could do by just studying them at her father's ranch. She wanted to learn of their nature in the wilderness and so she asked her father if she could leave after seeing a flyer about a place called Toro - it was somewhere new. He was very reluctant at first and it didn't seem like he would allow it, but her grandfather stepped in and said she could go and that it would be a good experience for her to explore and travel the world. After all, he himself had done so at a young age and look at him now - it was with this that they got her the tickets and let her go on her way.

Flaws: Despite her love for knowledge about Pixelmon, she isn't very patient if something is taking longer than she likes and often grows frustrated or angry. She is also very stubborn, but when it comes to getting things done - it more often doesn't. As for other flaws - she often finds herself desperately afraid of ghost type Pixelmon due to bad past experiences...

Ambitions: Alex's primary goal is to learn about Pixelmon through up close study - and to be friends with any who choose to travel alongside her on this quest.

—Open Response Questions—
[Respond to at least 2 of the 3 scenarios.]

You find yourself standing in a bustling town. Suddenly, a small girl runs up to you, her eyes seeming to glisten with fresh tears as her bottom lip quivers. “Please!” She cries out to you, “You must help me! My poor Meowth is stuck in a tree!” She points to a nearby tree as more tears spill out of her eyes and down her cheeks. How does your character respond?

Albiet a bit startled and caught off guard by the young girl's approach, she looked down at her with a soft sigh. Although she normally dislikes interacting with others, Alex can't help but feel a bit sorry for the girl - after all, she would be distressed as well if something ever happened to Treecks and so she spoke up in a slightly quiet tone of voice "Wait here.." before she looked to the Treecko that stood beside her as he often did. She than walked over to the tree and spoke to the Treecko "Treecks, you can get up there easier than me - see if you can get the kid's Meowth down, eh?". The Treecko twitched the little piece of grass in it's mouth before it gave a small nod and looked at the tree, scaling up it fairly easily before reaching the branch the Meowth was sitting on. Several moments passed of the two pixelmon exchanging conversation of some form or another with a seemingly irritated Treecko by the end of it as he scaled back down the tree to Alex's side and shook his head. Alex sighed "Of course... it's never easy is it?" as she began to hesitantly climb the tree, although it wasn't unfamilar for her to do such, she always practiced a caution in case of a branch breaking or in this case, a scared Meowth scratching her face off. After several minutes of climbing, she finally reached the Meowth and spoke quietly "Calm down.. I'm going to help get you down.." and slowly reached out to pick it up. Although, the Meowth didn't much seem to calm down and or trust her, she ended up suffering several scratches across her chest before she finally was able to wrap her arms around it.. She held it as tightly as she could and cast a glance to the ground - determining how high up she was and seeing it was a bit to high to jump. She winced as she felt the Meowth bite into her, thinking to herself 'is it really worth it?' before she carefully went to put the Meowth in her satchel case to stop it from biting her or clawing her as she tried to climb down. Once she reached the bottom, she carefully handed the Meowth back to the girl - not waiting for a thanks as she shook her head and started walking off to find somewhere to get her injuries tended.

After arriving in Toro a cheerful woman walks up to you, a clipboard in her hand. “Hello and welcome to Toro! I would like to ask where you came from and why you came, as well as where you plan to go. All for for statistical reasons of course.” she asked with a bright smile as she held a pen to her clipboard. How does your character respond?

Alex would look at the woman with some form of disdain as Treecks leaned up against a post nearby because of being stopped. Alex scratched the back of her neck, deciding it best to answer and get it over with rather than try and avoid the woman "I'm from Hoenn region near Fallarbor, I came to study Pixelmon... I'm not sure where I plan to go just yet." She said with some form of a half hesitation to her voice.
The Treecko than looked at her a little curiously that she actually answered before the woman tried to question her even more so "Oh? What are you trying to study in particular? Was the little Treecko from Hoenn region or did you come across hi--" it was there that Alex grew uncomfortable and shook her head "No more questions please... I need to find a place for the night.." and motioned to Treecks before going to walk off uncomfortably. The woman let out a noticable sigh as she watched them go.

Hello! I'm Misha, and I'm here to look at your app. I'm sorry for the delays, but I'll get right to it; overall, your app looks great! Honestly, I've kept looking it over, and there's only one thing I can really see being a problem. Her outfit is pretty peculiar, and does not fit the 50s aesthetic much.

I can see that you gave a reason for it so I can accept this; however, I do highly recommend you create a secondary casual skin with more normal clothing for when she goes into cities and such. Otherwise, other characters will definitely look at her strangely. It's also easy to change skins in game with MPM, so switching between the two shouldn't be a problem. With this being the only real issue I see, and it being more of a 'this character is somewhat odd thing', I don't see any reason to make you wait any longer. You are...
