Name: Terrance Anders-Maple
Gender: Female (but can easily be mistaken for male)
Age: 15
Type: Geologist-Trainer (made up my own)
Hometown: Vermillion City, Kanto
Height: 5'1
Weight: 110.2 lbs.
Hair: Unruly, choppy brown hair with golden tips that easily fall into her eyes. It's about chin-length but maybe just a bit shorter than that and refuses to lay flat, often curling up or flicking around all over the place. Usually out in the open and easy to see, she has a "rat-tail" at the back of her neck which is braided and about two-and-a-half feet long. She has supposedly never cut that single part.
Eyes: The color of the sky on a cloudy day, but, just like the weather, can change at the drop of a hat. Whether it is due to lighting arrangements or her mood that day, they can go from a very prominent bright blue to a dull almost-green color and most don't even notice. They are often hidden behind her goggles.
Clothing: Uniform changes minutely but most commonly consists of the following.. a baggy orange tank-top plus her signature on the front in white; a circle with a horizontal crack through it, an open brown vest to go over that which is only mid-drift level and holds all her pokeballs, one pair of baggy khaki cargo pants that drag on the ground and barely kept at her hips, shoes are left forgotten but some sandals will do, a set of tinted power-tool goggles always worn over her eyes, and a heavy duty leather tool belt for emergencies. Suspenders or harnesses can often be found on her person, and when she's in the field Terrance must wear thick gloves. She is often carrying a spade shovel or a coal shovel, depending on the surroundings. Her favorite trinket is a hand-made friendship bracelet her father and "uncle" made for her; it reads "daddy's girl" in colorful beads.
Build: Not at all femininely defined and somewhat short but still lean, Terrance has absolutely no curves about her and can often give the impression she is a guy. With a flat chest and a straight up-and-down stature, she has muscles but they're mostly in her arms and legs if those undefined stomach muscles have anything to say about it. She is very strong but not exactly fast, often taking things slow and enduring work better with great stores of stamina. Still, her face is boyish and cute which is the only tip-off to gender.
Personality: Very tough and burly for the most part but clearly educated enough to not be a brute. She understands others feelings but rarely expresses them unless they involve anger or happiness, keeping it all to herself behind that stubborn exterior. Somewhat irresponsible but responsible at the same time, Terrance can be mischievous and pull pranks like the childish teenager she is or take care of other people when it counts. Overly protective of friends and family but light-hearted when surrounded by them, she has a good sense of humor. An unsurprised girl, spooky or scary things rarely bother her and her nerves of steel. This is mostly because she has common sense inside that thick skull and can easily point out a situation's falseness or loop-hole. Not one to sugar-coat things or lie to people, she gives the straight truth which can sometimes come across as cruel. Loyal to the end and a hard-worker, Terrance still only follows the rules when it suits her as she believes law is disproportionate.
Abilities: Extremely good at going up against water pokemon, due to having lived in Vermillion City most of her life using rock pokemon. Good at finding ways around the aqua-based moves and skilled in offensive-defense knowledge. Terrance is a master of ground/rock pokemon an knows water pokemon at well although she tends to steer clear of having them on her team while out in the open. Terrance has trained all of her pokemon to have the same stamina she maintains.
Weaknesses: Cute things. An absolute sucker when it comes to cute things/people, no matter what gender- even adorable pokemon will be her down-fall. Sometimes refuses to fight others on the basis that they are cute and she doesn't want to hurt something cute. Sugar is also one of her few problems, as any sweet treat can often cloud her sense of judgement via sweet-tooth powers.
History: Born in Vermillion City, her mother died at her birth from complications and her grandparents were soon to follow. She was raised in Vermillion City by her single father, Airon Aners, who had not been married to her mother at the time of her birth but only engaged. His bestfreind and her surrogate uncle, Ray, helped with role model duties. Being an electrician/construction-worker, he also had a great love for pokemon and taught Terrance everything about being a pokemon trainer. When she turned ten, Terrance left home vowing to her father she would become the best rock-specialized trainer ever. For four long years she journeyed all over the many regions on her own. The first pokemon she'd received, a gift from her father, was a Rattata that he'd found chewing on electrical cables one night at the Power Plant.. that had been back when she was only eight, and it was already clear she had potential. Moving on to Sinnoh at the age of fifteen, Terrance is looking for any chance to prove herself as a battler and earn respect from other trainers.
Relatives: Airon Anders(father); Ray Slateson(surrogate-uncle/godfather); Melody Maple(mother, deceased); Leo Maple(grandfather, deceased); Ella Maple(grandmother, deceased)
Pokémon-on-Hand:
Species: Raticate
NickName: "Malt"
Gender: Male
Element(s): Normal
Bio: Expressive and lovable, acts very much like a domesticated pet would. Malt loves to follow Terrance around and keep as close to her as possible, doing whatever she asks of him. Not argumentative but just as protective of his trainer as she is of him, Malt only turns vicious when provoked and he hates being underestimated. Somewhat fatherly and cuddly, Terrance usually just carries him around in her arms instead of inside a pokeball. He loves sweet food just as much as Terrance.
Species: Diglett
NickName: "Cid"
Gender: Male
Element(s): Ground
Bio: Easily annoyed, a pessimist.. Cid rarely seems happy. He is aggressive and more stubborn than Terrance, but has the pure responsibility she lacks. He dislikes physical contact and can come across as a mean poemon. Still, he automatically softens up around Terrance and she seems to be the only one who can calm him down. His favorite food is anything sour.
Species: Corsola
NickName: "Blitz"
Gender: Male
Element(s): Water/Rock
Bio: Crazy and unpredictable, quirky as ever, Blitz is a ticking time-bomb of weirdness. He is very random and fun-loving, bouncing off the walls with a hyperactiveness that cannot be matched. Blitz can hardly be understood, even by fellow pokemon, and seems to be more than just a little insane. Even Terrance doesn't really get him. He loves bitter food!
Species: Mightyena
NickName: "Mag"
Gender: Female
Element(s): Dark
Bio: Unlike Terrance she hates being mistaken for a male pokemon and is very strongly voiced about her femininity. Bossy and clever, she is about as blunt as an arrow. Do not cross Mags! She can be very tricky, a ninja of sorts in her won right. Mags treats other pokemon like they are below her but seems to adore Terrance like a mother would a daughter. She will ONLY eat dry, sweet food.
Species: Cranidos
NickName: "Typo"
Gender: Male
Element(s): Rock
Bio: Might as well be a twin of Terrance, the two are almost exactly alike in every way.. personality wise, that is. He backs up everything his trainer says perfectly and knows what to do in battle without her even telling him. Typo's only difference is he is much more cowardly, needing a shove over the edge so he doesn't flee in terror. He adores spicy food, unlike Terrance.
Species: Nincada
NickName: "Gidget"
Gender: Female
Element(s): Bug/Ground
Bio: Cutesy and clueless, Gidget can be a bit of a space-case and as such misses things that go on around her. Very kind-hearted, she can sometimes be too nice for her own good. Gidget is flighty in thought, forgetting the world around her in favor of just thinking for hours upon hours. Terrance considers her the cutest pokemon she has. Gidget seems indecisive as to her favored flavor.
