    Morgana
    Female, 14 years.

    Personality:
    Morgana looks out for herself, and her pokemon, before anyone else. She's fairly serious and practical, and has little difficulty keeping her eyes on her goal. Usually, Morgana is bluntly honest and straightforward. She only sugar-coats or decieves when she stands to gain something significant from it. If she feels she's been slighted, she's known to hold a grudge.

    Appearance:
    Morgana's shortish, black hair might be pulled into a practical ponytail, or loose under a bandana tied around her head. She often wears a lot of black and dark grey, with accents in red, or maroon. She is too gangly to be considered "muscled," though she's not a weakling, (and does all her own stunts. You're most likely to see Morgana with narrowed, hazel eyes and a subtle, tight-lipped frown.

    Approved. Remember to edit in any Pokemon Captured in the Park and/or any Park Items as you get them. Be sure to keep a list of all your Pokemon's natures in there as well. :)

    Name: Daniel Mackenzie "Kenzie" Bent
    Age: Somewhere in his twenties
    Gender: Male
    Personality: Languid and mellow, he's more likely to work around a problem rather than work through it. Puts about as much forethought into his actions as effort into keeping track of things; that is, hardly at all.
    Description: Lean and long. 5'11" height that seems to be all limbs. Mop of light brown hair normally rangled by a straw hat. Shorts and vest covered in pockets that seem to hold his hands more often than anything else. Flip-flops for footwear, if any.

    Approved - make sure to check out the Mini-Run Event. It's perfect for new starters to the National Park.

    Trainer SU#2 - to whoever maintains the archive, I'll edit this into my original post upon approval. Thanks!

    Name: Morganna Fairchild
    Age: 22
    Gender: Female
    Personality: Raised in an indigent population, Morganna is well-versed on the subject of local superstitions and ghost stories. Believing them to be true, Morganna caries around a plethora of odd objects including but not limited to a doll’s decapitated head in order to ward away evil entities. She claims to have glimpsed a few of the creatures of myth and as such is very wary especially during the night. Some people claim her to be slightly off her rocker, but apart from her frequent illusions, hallucinations, and delusions, her sensorium and mental status are mostly intact.

    Morganna is the epitome of impulsivity. She’s always been taught to be demure and reserved – how women should carry themselves, but she’s decided to break the mold and veer far from her parents’ conservative mindset. Outspoken and somewhat brash, Morganna is determined to set herself apart. She’s often the first to burst into a situation guns ablaze; due to this, she has had numerous unfortunate incidents in the past that she would rather not talk about. When dealing with conflict, her first strategy is usually barreling through via sheer force of will. Only when that fails does she start actually thinking strategically.

    Description: Morganna has a light build. She stands at 5’ 4”.Poor posture makes her appear even shorter. Morganna’s limbs are long and thin, traits well suited for her tendency to run all over the place. Occasionally, small children mistakenly identify her as a ghost due to her deathly pale skin and her straight, long hair. Black as ivory but with streaks of gray, it reaches the small of her back. Despite her surname, Morganna’s face, to put it bluntly, is quite repulsive (to the members of her community anyway). Children fear her, and adults pity her. Warts cover her skin, and her teeth jut out at various angles. Bushy eyebrows are set atop of her bulging gray eyes. She doesn’t give a hoot about her appearance though. A quick glance at her wardrobe reveals that she dresses quite simply. Shirts, jeans, and a pair of sneakers are usually her attire. She carries a bag akin to a suitcase in which her various belongings of dubious function can be found.

    Pokemon Captured:
    Mime Jr. -> Mr. Mime
    Munchlax -> Snorlax

    Pokemon Natures:
    Mr. Mime – Calm
    Snorlax – Bold
    Togekiss – Gentle
    Gengar – Docile

    You are not approved! How dare you think you would be? Just kidding. But any edits to characters / new alternate characters don't really need to be posted here, just post them in your stats / original post.

    Name: Tyson Amarin

    Age: 18

    Appearance: Tyson is tall (6ft2) and athletic. He has fairly short dark blond hair and light blue eyes. He likes to wear a red and white football (soccer) shirt and blue jeans and he usually wears red sneakers. When going out into the Park, he carries a compact black backpack.

    Personality: Tyson is a gentle and very down-to-earth person, and he tries to avoid harming living beings. Despite this, he is passionate about Pokémon battling, partly because he knows that Pokémon enjoy it as well. He not easily stopped when he has his mind set on something, which sometimes leads to him taking unnecessary risks. In most situations, however, he is very calm and cool and he keeps thinking rationally and strategically. Until his fighting spirit flares up, that is.

    Just realized I never signed up for this.

    Name: Peace Malcolm
    Age: 16
    Gender: Female
    Personality: Peace is a ridiculously happy person. Her personality tends to annoy people, which she is generally oblivious to. She hates when people fight with each other, much preferring to settle any disputes on the field of Pokémon battling. She also really loves her Pokémon, having a preference to the fairy type. She likes other Pokémon too, but fairies are first in her mind. She really loves nature, and likes to play outdoors or go for walks outside in her free time.

    Description: Short and pixielike, with a build similar to the fairy Pokémon she loves so dearly, Peace is actually very sensitive about her stunted height. She has blonde hair with a couple vivid purple streaks shot through it, and has grass-green eyes.

    Pokemon Captured: Maleficent the Mawile, Adamant.

    Park Items: none yet!

    Name: Meyer (check my bio for pronunciation)
    Age: 10
    Gender: Male
    Appearance: Wears Ethan's jacket, but unzipped. His yellow hair sticks up like crazy. He also wears blue jeans, with Poke Balls on his belt. His Cyndaquil usually stands on his shoulder.
    Hometown: Floccesy Town/New Bark Town
    History:(me liek unnecessary stuffs) Meyer lived in Floccesy Town for 5 years. When he was 5, he and his family moved to New Bark Town. There he met an escaped Cyndaquil who became his partner-in-crime. He was given a Pokedex on his 10th birthday and set off.
    Personality: Meyer is like a Froakie; behind his cheery air, he is always watching. But he used to be watching for things like lock combinations and security codes, his having been the sneaky pickpocket he was. He has matured and stopped, but Bob is still naughty in nature. He now watches for unusual differences in the balance of things. He turns his great eyesight into battle strategy by having Bob dodge the opponents' attacks, letting him learn their strategy, and turns the tables.

    Almost there, but not quite! Try to aim for a short paragraph for both personality and description.

    Some things to think about for expansion could be perhaps why he doesn't care too much for other people yet stays happy despite that. You could also explain the talking way too much aspect--is this to himself because he doesn't like people? What kinds of things does he talk about? How does he seek attention? Does he do anything odd to get it like busting into conversations? Stuff like that.

    The same thing goes for description. In other weathers, does he add anything to his attire (since you specifically mentioned he wears a t-shirt no matter what). What about odd features? Does he have dimples or freckles or some other birthmark or scar? How does his hair look?

    It's important to flesh out characters not only for you, who then gets a firmer grasp on how to roleplay with him, but also for Rangers and other Trainers if you do a Team Run. Any information you can provide will help everyone get a feel for who this person is. Of course, once you edit and are approved, you can always come back and add additional details as you think of them!
