Biography

Parents: Minstrel was born to Conor and Siobhan O’Callahan, a loving father and mother that have supported him through every step of his journey through life. The only thing he has against them is that he’s mad at Conor for naming him Minstrel, and mad at his mother for allowing it.

Siblings: Minstrel has a younger sister named Chloe who he hasn’t seen in a few years, since he left home to wander. She has always liked having an effeminate older brother, especially one with a similar sense of style to her own. Also, older brothers usually can’t paint nails, a skill that Minstrel has mastered.

Children: Nope, none, nada

Extended Family: None that he cares enough about to mention.

History: Born on a small isle off the northeastern coast of the Galar Region, Minstrel was always... eccentric, to say the least. He was always outspoken, and willing to play with the other children, but he began showing many feminine traits that the other boys of the small town he inhabited simply didn’t show. Thus, he found himself playing with the girls far more often. Nobody judged him, nor was he ever made fun of for these traits. Rather, people just sort of accepted that Minstrel was going to be different. However, Minstrel struggled for much of his early life. His emotions were consistently in turmoil, as he wasn’t sure how he was supposed to behave and act. He wanted to be more masculine, but he didn’t want to do any of the things the other boys were interested? Hunting? No. Battling? Sometimes, but not really his style. Wrestling? Well, maybe~. Yet, he didn’t want to lose his femininity. But, if he couldn’t decide how he was to behave, and act, then... who was he? He needed an outlet for his feelings. A way to express himself. That was when the town’s elder, an old woman that was simply known as móraí (grandma) by the townsfolk, began to notice his plight. She cared for all the village, especially the little ones, so it was clear to her that vibrant, upbeat Minstrel, who was now sulky and quiet, was not at his best. So, she invited him in for tea. There, she gifted an 8-year-old Minstrel what is now his most prized possession. An oaken lyre with seven simple strings. Minstrel fell in love with it from the moment his little pink eyes saw it. Immediately, he began to learn, plucking strings and teaching himself the notes and chords. As he improved, so did his outlook on life. He began to perform little tunes for the other children, who enjoyed it greatly! This is where he discovered his love for performance. Wanting to hone his craft, young Minstrel began to study the world’s mythology and stories, along with his music, becoming equally fascinated with storytelling. Soon, the boy was weaving tales of daring knights on wild adventures to defeat the villains and save the helpless to the entire village. For years upon years he was the village’s primary source of entertainment. However, Minstrel was afflicted with a severe case of wanderlust at the age of 16. What did the world have to offer beyond this small island and the cold ocean? Young Minstrel intended to find out. He talked to his family, and with their blessing, he packed his things, and left home for the very first time. Since then, he has travelled the world, singing, dancing, prancing and romancing his way through the regions, hoping to share his musical gift with all he meets.

Nature

Personality: Minstrel is an outspoken, extroverted young man with a snarky, teasing demeanour. He is first and foremost a flirt, and likes to play hard to get (though his definition of hard to get can mean simply being mean and teasing a person he’s attracted to). However, most of this is a guise, hiding a soft, insecure boy that simply wants attention and to be loved.

Strengths: Minstrel is an excellent singer, musician and storyteller. He is smarter than he lets on, and often has absurdly good luck.

Weaknesses: Minstrel is physically frail, with little physical strength and a laughable amount of durability. If he tried to play a sport and fell once, he’d be out of commission for at least a day. He also has many hidden insecurities, mainly that nobody actually likes him, only his performances. Even then, one of his biggest fears is a silent crowd.

Alignment: Chaotic Good

Ambitions: Minstrel is currently unaware of his own ambitions, which is, in part, why he wanders so much. He wishes to find himself.

Pixelmon

Species: Ralts (Canonically Gallade)

Nickname: Killian

Gender: Male

Nature: Jolly

History: While doing his third regional trek, this time through the Unova region, Minstrel heard other musicians singing of oddly coloured Pokémon deep within a hidden cave of the Giant Chasm. Well, after performing a full night with these gentlemen, Minstrel learned of the exact location. He spent the night travelling all the way to the Giant Chasm, his mind racing with all the amazing stories he could spin from this. He landed in the middle of the massive gorge, glancing around. He headed to the spot that had been described to him, finding a waterfall of freezing temperature. However, in his path landed a very angry-looking Metagross, that seemed to be guarding the falls. Well, apparently those fellows hadn’t been so nice after all. While most people would have taken out a Pokémon, Minstrel did what he did best, and began to play. The notes of his Lyre seemed to lull the Metagross into a calmer state of mind, as it sank lower, and lower, and eventually fell asleep. Minstrel had actually copied the song of a Chansey using Sing, note for note! With the creature dealt with, Minstrel stuck close to the wall of the chasm, creeping around the falls until he entered the cave behind. ‘Twas a magnificent sight indeed. Pink crystals filled the cavern, as well as clusters of bioluminescent pink mushrooms that provided the cave with an ethereal glow. However, the cave was small. Where were all the Pokémon? The only sound was a gentle cry, coming from behind a stone. As Minstrel approached, he saw him. A small Ralts, with a pink cap as opposed to green, the red growths on its head a bright yellow. It seemed to be all alone... had those musicians song caused people to come here and take its family away? Needless to say, Minstrel couldn’t just leave it here. The twink scooped up the off-coloured Ralts into his arms, and took it back to the inn he was staying at. Since then, he has given him the name Killian, and he’s become Minstrel’s most reliable partner, not just for playing the hero in most of Minstrel’s songs, but his battle partner as well! The two are absolutely inseparable. It evolved into a Gallade during a stint at the Battle Maison in Kalos, where Minstrel used a Dawn Stone on Killian, now a Kirlia after many adventures in order to rejuvenate it and win a tough battle. Minstrel was hesitant, but Killian had been ready. (I’ll be using my donator ticket on this :3)
