OOC: Hey I am hoping all of you are still willing to commit to this RPG. Meanwhile, please welcome our newest member: Flame Mistress
Name: Candice "Candy" Viloria
Gender: Female
Age: 14
Hometown: Born in Hearthome City, moved to Celestic Town at the age of 8, then to Nacrene City at the age of 11
Appearance: Candy stands at about five feet and four inches, and has a pretty slim figure, without any muscles to particularly boast about. Her face is heart-shaped, and her long, frizzly, blonde hair is almost always tied back in two rather careless bunches, with a similarly careless fringe resting on her forehead. She is almost always smiling, and her emerald-green eyes tend to twinkle in the sunlight, or whenever she is excited.
Candy can usually be seen wearing a tight, short-sleeved, white t-shirt with several small red hearts printed in the middle and a denim jacket on top, along with short denim shorts and white leggings that are long enough to reach just below her knees. Sometimes, in the winter, she'll add on a fur coat and a white neck warner to her outfit. She also wears diamond earrings - yes, real diamond ones.*
Personality: If you hadn't guessed by her looks already, Candy, just like what they tell everyone, is bright, outgoing, happy-go-lucky, mischievous... Well, anything but mature, that is, unfortunately enough for her.
Candy likes to talk before she thinks, and her hyper personality, along with her naughtiness, has punished her in several different ways. No one has ever seen her sad, let alone crying in a corner; she has been a cheerful girl for as long as anyone can remember, and there's certainly no doubt about that; she was born with her personality.*
However, she is a bit over-reactive and too stubborn sometimes, and has occasionally done some things without meaning to during her training sessions, promptly making her fail, thanks to her bounciness. Candy tries not to repeat that mistake, but it does happen once in a while - and she could be the one to ruin her mission and career if that happens again, much to her dismay.
History: Candy's first seven years of life were spent with her constantly arguing parents, and she often had to spend the night with a friend or at the local Pokémon Centre with the permission of the kind Nurse Joy, to avoid being hit by one of the flying chairs her father would've thrown at her mother in a typical fight.
When she was 7, her parents finally decided to divorce, feeling sick of all the constant fighting. Unfortunately for Candy, neither of her parents had planned on raising the child, and just dumped her at an orphanage as they went their separate ways. Poor Candy was lonely and unloved in the orphanage, but always kept her spirits high, and believed that there was hope for her parents to return and pick her up. She picked up the hobby of reading and studying different myths and legends from around the world, and soon they were all inside her head, ready to entertain her whenever she was bored or feeling down.
However, it wasn't her parents who came to pick Candy up a year later; it was a distant relative of Candy, a cousin of a nephew of a grand-uncle, in fact. He was an archaeologist named Liam Hawkes, and had heard from his cousin, who had heard from his uncle, who had heard from his brother, that Candy had a strong interest in myths and legends. Liam decided to adopt her, having had no success in conceiving children, and took her back to his home of Celestic Town, where she was to live with his wife, Sandra. The three of them often spent time exploring Mt. Coronet and studying the myths of Sinnoh, but that happiness only lasted for three years, after which Liam died in a hiking accident.
Sandra was then invited to live in Nacrene City of the Unova Region with her sister, Jodie. Sandra agreed that doing so would be best for her and Candy - who had grown to be like her own daughter by then - and sailed to Unova a few weeks later. Candy secretly preferred living in Nacrene City, where everything was happy, bright, cheerful and whimsical, just like her hometown of Hearthome City.
Two years later, Candy was finally old enough to start her own Pokémon Journey and have her very own Pokémon. She had already befriended a happy-go-lucky Whimsicott (called Mars) living on the edge of Pinwheel Forest, and was overjoyed to have permission to catch it. She and Mars began a journey together happily, in hopes of coming at least in the Top 8 of the Unova League, and has already caught a Munna and a Purrloin along the way. She has two Gym Badges currently.*
Other: Candy knows just about everything related to Pokémon Myths and Legends, no sweat.*
Partner Name: Mars
Species: Whimsicott
Gender: Female
Appearance: Mars looks just like your regular Mars (much to her dismay), apart from the fact that he has an orange neckerchief around her, well, neck.*
Personality: Not all Pokémon nicknamed Mars are brutal, let alone male, especially not this friendly little Whimsicott. Mars is as hyper as anyone can be, and just can't contain all his energy to herself. She loves to chatter and dance whenever she is happy, and always maintains a cheerful mood. She's also an eager battler, having a bad habit of getting into a pretend-fight which angers her "opponent" and promptly firing a stronger than expected attic at her. Even if she loses, she looks on the bright side and keeps on battling his opponent over and over again until she wins; he's eager like that.
