Full Name: Chika Langford Nickname(s): None Age: Twenty-two Gender: Female Occupation: Team Nova Hometown: Goldenrod City, Johto Starter Pokemon: Charmander Starter Nickname: Reno Starter Nature: Bold Appearance: Chika is your average girl, standing at 5'7" and weighing about 124lbs. Her hair is a vibrant red color and touches the tops of her thighs. However, she wears it in a high ponytail, therefore shortening it to her lower back. Coupled with a deep red gaze, it wouldn't be a surprise if one were slightly unsettled by her appearance. She's got a fierce glare if you get on her bad side. She's often found clad in somewhat darker clothes ranging from black to a dark blue hue. However, she doesn't shy away from bright colors either. She's known to dress festively if the situation calls for it but won't wear skirts or dresses for extended amounts of time, especially if she's traveling by foot. Her traveling attire isn't one of the most practical, but for her, it's the most comfortable. Her usual outfit consists of denim daisy dukes, and a form fitting tank top. Should she get cold, Chika also has a black sweatshirt with two dancing Pikachus on the back. The sneakers she wears are worn with a hole developing by her left pinky toe. The shoelaces have long lost their plastic ends and are fraying in multiple places. Despite the obvious need for new shoes, Chika would much rather spend her money on things pertaining to pokemon such as pokeballs or items. On her left wrist is her Team Nova band necessary to gain access into the HQ. She also wears a variety of other bracelets on her left arm to make it blend in better. She carries a simple backpack which holds her Capture Rings. Face Claim: Sakura Kyouko from Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica Personality: Chika's a spunky sort of girl. She's more than willing to speak her mind if she doesn't agree or like something. At the same time, she knows when and when not to speak her mind in order to stay out of trouble. She has her childish moments and her spoiled brat moments such as when she wants something she can't have. She's generally impatient, often rebuking someone if they made her wait too terribly long. Despite what people may expect from a Team Nova member, Chika isn't cruel or brutal towards pokemon. In fact, she much prefers them over a great majority of people. She'd prefer having a pokemon that could easily incinerate her as a travel partner as opposed to a human one, assuming that the human is not one she harbors some sort of affection for. To counter balance her often childish nature, Chika does indeed have a serious side which comes out during pokemon battles. While she's still snarky and critical at times, it takes a back seat to cunning and fleet-footedness. While most would say she's not the most strategic pokemon trainer, those very people would agree that in the future, she would be a formidable opponent. In battle, Chika's strategy is an all-out attack, believing that the opponent can't hurt her if they're busy trying to dodge. History: Chika grew up in the very fast-paced city of Goldenrod, Johto. As such, her surroundings were almost constantly changing. Her family consisted of her, her mother, her father, and her family pet, Houndour. The four of them lived in a large apartment complex, living as any other average family would. They were neither rich nor poor, just another family making ends meet however they could and splurging when they could. Due to this, Chika was neither spoiled nor deprived of much. While she wouldn't always get the toys she wanted or the latest gadgets, she would eventually settle for not having them and run off with the family Houndour. Her most prominent memory is of Team Rocket taking over the Radio Tower. She had been visiting the department store with her family Houndour in tow. The complex they lived in was only a block away from the store and her parents figured that she would be just fine. After all, she was nine and in less than a year, she would be able to go out on her own pokemon journey. It happened to be that very day when the Rockets made their move and took over the Radio Tower. Her trusty Houndour was stolen away, and this absolutely devastated her. The family's Houndour was going to be her starter pokemon. She had already decided it. She promptly returned home to very worried parents before proceeding to hole up in her room for the next 24 hours. It wasn't long before Team Rocket was kicked out of the Radio Tower. When this happened, Chika proceeded to search high and low for her Houndour. It was at this time that Chika began disliking Team Rocket which, in turn, would lead to her disdain for most humans. The next year, instead of setting out on her journey as she had planned, Chika stayed in Goldenrod City instead. The years went by with Chika's dislike towards people growing more and more each year as more stuff happened to her, whether it be someone yelling at her, a bad day at school, or something even more trivial. In fact, the bad thing didn't even have to happen to her specifically and her dislike for people would grow. Despite all this, she was still outwardly friendly to people, inwardly damning them to the deepest depths of hell. Very few people got to see what she was really like behind closed doors. But most people were blissfully ignorant. In fact, it wasn't until she was twenty-one and visiting Kanto that she met a young man who shared her views. The two started dating for a short while. During that time, she was informed about Team Nova. Over the next two months, she became interested in the team and their motives. Not too long after her and her beau had stopped dating, she joined, finally caving in and becoming a trainer. Roleplay Sample She stared down at the piece of strawberry shortcake she had ordered. Part of her had to admit that it looked very nicely decorated, but in full honesty, she wasn’t that hungry. She had ordered the cake out of sheer boredom. Nonetheless, she delicately picked up the fork and dug into it. She had to admit, it was very well made. The flavor was light enough not to overpower the sense, but not too light as to be overlooked. The cake part was spongy and not too crumbly. Eiri made a mental note to come here more often. The bell above the entrance door jingled slightly, but Eiri didn’t bother to look up. Unlike some other people, she wasn’t very curious as to who entered or exited a place. Some people looked up because they believed it was a friend or something. But Eiri didn’t really have many friends. Therefore, she had no reason to look up. However, what did draw her attention away from her cake was another young girl sitting down across from her. “May I sit with you for a moment?” she asked. Eiri parted her lips to tell the girl no, but before she could, she sat down. Oh dear, who was this? Did she know her? Eiri looked at the other girl through her bangs, not wanting to make eye contact. “Who are you?” she asked in a flat tone. “And what do you want?” She hoped to whoever was in high power that this wasn’t a fighter who had a bone to pick with her or something. She grit her teeth at the possibility that they’d request a fight. This was her self-proclaimed day off. There was no way in hell she was battle. THE PUPPETEER Who are you?
