LET THE WHOLE THING BLOW
B A S I C I N F O
★ NAME: Zion Verano Almestia
★ NICKNAME: Just Zion is fine.
★ MEMBER GROUP: Team Rocket (human)
★ POKEMON: Gastly
★ AGE: Nineteen
★ HEIGHT: 5'8"
★ WEIGHT: 71 kg
★ FACE CLAIM: Colonello from Katekyo Hitman Reborn
★ APPEARANCE: A young man of around 173 cm tall, Zion isn't exactly the biggest guy around. With medium length, spiky blonde hair, blue eyes and fair skin, depending on where you're from you might just walk straight past without noticing him or stare at him confused.
As his favorite colour is green, he is usually seen wearing a green jacket or hoodie, and a pair of green army pants. Zion always wears his green bandana, no matter the occasion, most of the times leaving it on as he falls asleep. Underneath his jacket, he always wears plain coloured shirts, preferring comfort over style, not really having much of a fashion sense.
If you ever happen to spot him without his shirt on jacket on, you would see that he is actually quite muscular. Liking exercise and always feeling sick after eating greasy foods, Zion likes to keep healthy and in good shape.

★ OVERALL PERSONALITY:
If you got to know Zion just a little bit then you will realize that he's actually quite a nice guy. Protective of others, especially kids and the weak, he usually places others before himself. Being tolerant and forgiving of others, it takes quite a bit to get him riled up, unless of course you want to go point a gun at some poor helpless kid, then that's a quick way to get him angry. However he isn't that perfect hero, he isn't your modern day Robin Hood. He is quite stubborn, rarely wavering after making a decision even when he secretly knows he's wrong. He doesn't care at all for authority, in Zion's eyes everyone is the same whether you're a gijinka hobo or the head of state, if you have a higher rank than him, don't expect any special treatment from him. He also has a tendency to be a bit lazy and do things on a whim. As he doesn't really respect authority, he does whatever he likes, whenever he feels like. Zion is also usually unfazed for almost anything, not showing much care for anything asides from the well-being of the innocent and misfortuned.
However there is also one more side to Zion which very few people, if any, have ever seen. Being that he never had a girlfriend, nor that his parents or grandparents were actually affectionate, he doesn't how to deal with signs of affection and with his own feelings. Whenever he starts to feel signs of love or a crush on someone, it freaks him out and eats him from the inside out, making him stay at home and become extra unmotivated to do things. If someone were to randomly hug him, he wouldn't know what to do and just stand there shocked until that person let go. Even though he doesn't know how to exactly deal with love, he has always had that secret desire to have that special someone.

H I S T O R Y
- Zion grew up with a single mother, never really knowing his dad. Zion's father had always craved the power that the gijinkas had, being a human himself and not being able to possess the DNA. For a couple years, he had desperately tried to receive the transfusion yet everytime, Epispect refused him until he was forced to search underground for the powers he craved. Unfortunately, it was a failure, Zion's father dying during the process, his blood being sold off soon afterwards. Zion was 2 years of age when his Father died.
- Being that his mother had an estranged relationship with his father, Zion's mom had to raise up Zion from birth as her husband had gone somewhat insane with his desire. She grew up being taught to respect one another, to treat gijinkas as she would all other humans and so this was in turn what she taught her son. She was tolerant of others, never really understanding the hatred but understanding the envy. However her envy was never enough to actually do anything about it, being content with who she was. As she was a single mother, She worked as hard as she could for her son to have a good life although it was soon too much as the two went to live with her parents.
- There, Zion actually had a pleasant, and easy as you can get life at this time. He was mostly just brought up by his grandparents, his mother working hard to gain enough money to get a house of her own. The neighborhood they lived in was pleasant, a mixture of both gijinkas and humans. For the most part, they were quite friendly with each other, no major issues happening. The two years that he first arrived there, it was all peace. Within these two years, a young couple formed. Now this normally wouldn't be an issue at all however this young couple turned out to be a romance between a male gijinka and a female human. What the main issue was, that as they decided to get married and word began to spread, Epispect soon discovered the fact that this particular gijinka was actually an illegal. So on the eve of their engagement party, the young couple was surrounded by their friends and family when all of a sudden Epispect burst into their house with intention to murder the illegal. Several people got caught in the crossfire as they tried to protect the couple. Zion's mother was one of the ones that was killed in the raid, including the young couple.
- The neighborhood and Zion in particular, were extremely shook up, hatred of Epispect forming in a young Zion's mind. They had caused his father to go insane for power and ultimate die, they killed his mother and split his neighborhood up. Of course, he didn't conjure all this up all at once, it took a few years for these ideas to creep up and become cemented into his mind.
- After his mother's funeral, Zion escaped to a deserted part of the cemetery, just wanting to be alone and not face anyone. Here he met one of his great friends and his future pokemon partner, a young gastly. This gastly saw this boy and could not resist the urge to play a trick on him. So the gastly played a few tricks on Zion and to Zion's surprise this actually cheered him up. The two befriended each other and the gastly, curious of life outside the cemetery, followed Zion home. For the next few years, they remained friends, Zion never really having any plans for becoming a trainer of catching the gastly.
- On his 17th birthday however, Zion began to have a little change of heart as his hatred for Epispect grew. He saw his friends come and go on to become trainers, yet he never did, having to stay in school and study. Deciding that he would rather be out training pokemon and finding a way to bring down Epispect than rather stay in school and plan his takedown of a corporation from inside a classroom. He wandered around aimlessly for a year, just him and his companion gastly, whom he had still been friends with all these years although he did have to convince him a bit to enter the pokeball willingly the first time. After a year, he started to become more and more involved with Team Rocket. He had heard of them many times but thought nothing of it, never really having any opinions of them, not exactly caring. Though, as he spent more time wandering around, he realized that he agreed with Team Rocket. There was no point to the hatred between humans and gijinkas, we should all care for one another, Epispect is completely wrong and evil, Team Rocket are the good guys aren't they?

★ OOC NAME: Struck
★ AGE: 17, almost 18
★ OTHER CHARACTERS: Just this one
★ RP SAMPLE:
The shiny metal bird just grinned as it prepared itself for whatever the pidgeotto was prepared to do. Aeo wasn't really one for the crowds or gaining the adoration of others but he was just competitive by nature. Arrogance may had started appearing in his personality quite awhile ago but he didn't care. He was better than the others in all ways possible, this pidgeotto? She just needed to learn her place like the rest of the flying types in Celadon.
Watching her and preparing to make his move, Aeo flew as close as he could behind her, riding the tailwind she created. Well she wanted to make it easier for him then by all means he was going to take it. He zipped behind her, turning where she turned, making as similar movements as he possibly could. He wasn't as graceful as the pidgeotto but Aeo figured it was good enough. After all, grace doesn't win battles. As she flew over her trainer, he pulled back and began circling and swirling around the crowd and the trainer, watching and anticipating what the fellow bird pokemon would do.
Watching her, Aeo had to admit that the pidgeotto did have some skill, obviously she was an experienced performer but it was nothing he couldn't top, he took the wink to mean it was his turn. Just as the feathers and glitter were about to settle down and land on the crowd and the ground, Aeo quickly flapped his wings, creating a weak whirlwind which sent the feathers and glitters back up in the sky. Flying up for a moment, he closed his wings as he dove straight down towards the crowd, aiming for just above their heads as his body began to burst into flames. Using brave bird as close as he could to the crowds, Aeo opened up his wings, quickly flying up in a twisting motion through the center of the feathers and glitter as he was enveloped in a blue aura, dispersing the flames.
Brave bird was his and his trainer's favorite move. Aeo could not count the times he and Zion had trained just to perfect that move. As the blue aura disappeared and the glitter and feathers harmless fell to the crowd, Aeo gently glided down towards the pidgeotto and her trainer, winking back at the bird pokemon as he swirled around them. He wasn't able to copy her completely, no but Aeo figured it was still good enough, the expressions and sounds of the crowd seemed to say they enjoyed it so. "So what next?" Aeo called out to the pidgeotto.
