Name: Derek
Gender: Male
Age: Roughly 16
Species: Rampardos Gijinka
Type: Rock
Relations: No one yet.
Appearance:

About: Derek is only slightly bonkers, which is pretty good for an alpha experiment. One of the few things that make him appear as crazy as his is, is the instinct of the Rampardos leaking through at a steady rate. In ten years he's speculated to have the exact mindset of the beast. For now though, he just feels the need to run head first into anything in his way, and that mostly happens when he's angry or extremely confused. Because he knows he's slipping he also will jump at any chance to slow it down, and that's why he'll often go so far as to give his own consent to the experiments, if they have to do with his deterioration. Not many of the others like him, and Derek is wracked with guilt over siding with the scientists, but he justifies it by calling it his own personal battle before he can join the others. What he doesn't tell anyone is that he can almost feel the Pokemon growing inside of him, waiting to take over and smash into anything in it's way, including Derek.
Backstory: Derek was orphaned at a young age, and when he was approached and offered a roof over his head (they neglected to mention the genetic infusions) he jumped at the idea, though they believed him to only be 14 as he stands only 5' 4" and hasn't grown since (side effect.) He was already driven slightly over the edge from isolation, and doesn't regret talking to the scientists despite the deadly consequences.

He's considered a mistake due to his deterioration, and the only reason he hasn't been killed out of pity for his mental state is so that they can see if they can fix him: if they can fix Derek, can they fix the others? It's also the only reason that he's been assigned to have someone keep an eye on him. Also to make sure he doesn't bang his brains to mush when he smashes his head into the door and walls. As long as he's composed he's been allowed to help out around the lab. Whistling helps him stay in control, and as long as he's talking, listening, or whistling he's in the clear. It's only mindless tasks that can make him smash into things. He's become fond of the puzzles with the sliding squares when he's alone.

Character name:
Jacob
Pokemon:
Pawniard
Age:
17
Gender:
Male
Appearance:
Jacob is a majority Pawniard. It's a bit of a problem. For starters, he can't talk. He can't speak: just like the fabled actual Pawniards. Despite the fact he still does have a mouth, he keeps a dark grey bandanna tied over his mouth. Jacob also has his 'breed's' signature yellow eyes, though that doesn't seem to unsettle people as much as his silence. Keeping his helmet on at all times, the Gijinka actually has black hair underneath the dark grey and red helmet with the blade jutting out of the front. Another unsettling factor about him is his hands: they have blades coming out of the top of the wrists, so when he makes a knuckle the blade stands out farther: not exactly high-five or handshake material. He keeps on a long sleeved red shirt with a black shoulders back and torso, with armor over his shoulders. Thankfully the blades surrounding a Pawniard's torso are missing. He can still give hugs without injury. His red jeans and sneakers easily cover up his feet: exactly like a Pawniard's except flesh toned. Jacob is extremely skinny, to say the least, though he is still mildly strong. He doesn't like too many question about his silence, but too many is a good way to start a fight.
Personality:
Jacob is the strong and silent type: though short he can still look intimidating (his blades help) and has managed to fend for himself most of his life. He keeps a small pen and paper on him at all times for anything urgent, but unless it's life or death he'll be silent, and does what he pleases. Jacob often hears things others don't, and no one thinks anything of it since he can't speak. However this allows him to know more than others do: and has been his benefactor almost all of his life. Having gotten over the wish to speak he has worked on lying with facial expressions, making exaggerated gestures on a daily basis to others he doesn't know. On the other hand Megan can understand him with better skill after their time together and doesn't need the extravagant motions. Despite all of this, Jacob is still easily offended and will break out into a fight. He considers himself a freak due to his extreme mutations being so unlike his family's and is often embarrassed of himself when meeting a new person.
History:
The Pawniard Gijinka ran away from home after his parents kept on babying him too much due to his physical muteness, overlooking the fact he could still communicate fine. He dashed off after taking a large sum of money, and the family's pet human. Unlike everyone else in their mansion she treated him as coherent, as he did still have ears, and he frankly had gotten a crush on her. The feeling weren't mutual, so he kept them to himself (not that he had much of a choice.) The unusual pair made it for a long time on-the-lamb, at least until he was fifteen, but their pasts caught up with them and they were returned 'home'. Jacob managed to get away in a few weeks, but wasn't able to get away with Megan. They were almost caught when she gave herself up for him, and he worked for the next year to try and figure out a way to gt her free. He fell into the crowd when he finally rescued her, and they've been working together ever since: Jacob has become extremely protective of her, as she has begun to symbolize his own freedom (and his long-standing-crush is a factor), and would die for her.

Character name:
Megan
Age:
17
Gender:
Female
Appearance:

Personality:
Megan is quiet and tries to stay hidden, echos of how she was raised as a human 'pet' from a rich family. The only time she talks about her opinions is when she's with Jacob, and considers him a best friend of hers. She closes up when she's without Jacob, but will talk if forced to, or if she needs to make a point. Because of this a lot of other people will make the incorrect assumption that she's also mute, or that she's uneducated. Megan feels special in that she's one of the only people who can easily understand Jacob without exaggerated motions without having memorized sign language.
History:
She always had fun when she and Jacob could play together, despite his muteness. She would finally use that time to talk about how she felt being a pet, and Jacob was always there to listen. When he decided to run away, she went with him. The years they spent running she learned to read his face easily, and began to work as his voice. When they were caught she was there as a shoulder for him to cry on, and when Jacob ran away again she knew he would come back for her. She just didn't expect it to take almost a year. She trusts Jacob with her life, and though she doesn't share his feelings for her, she would follow him blindly.

Character name:
Grace
Pokemon:
Pidgeot
Age:
15
Gender:
Female
Appearance:

Personality:
Grace is loud and doesn't hesitate to speak out, unless it's possible no one would like it. She easily falls into the majorities opinion, and whatever side it is she will act as a voice it is for it no matter how many others are speaking out at the same time. Because of this Grace is easily manipulated and taken advantage of, something that she is constantly oblivious to. She is gullible and easily embarrassed, the fastest way the shut her up being to embarrass her or insult her. In short, she has a fragile ego. If you mention her eye, you are dead meat. She hated the way her green eye stands out against her other eye's brown, so it's best if you just let it be.
History:
Grace grew up on a nice cliff side home with her parents, and she quickly became addicted to speed, constantly leaping off the cliff and pulling up only a few yards form the ground. She has strong wings and a fearless personality because of it, but her other traits come from the fact it wasn't until the accident when her house was hit by lightening and burned down while she was speed diving that she met other people with the exception of her parents. She was shocked by the variety of people once she flew to the nearest civilization, and was also shocked by their lacks of charity to orphans such as her. Left to living on the streets, she had only just begun to travel with Jacob and Megan, despite not knowing much about them and not agreeing with most of their opinions.
