Every new generation a child is chosen to represent one of the twelve spirits of the Chinese Zodiac. While considered a blessing, many of them suffer dark secrets... The darkest of which is a curse that plagues the Zodiac—Unable to experience physical contact with the opposite gender without transforming into their respective Pokemon, they and their predecessors live life tormented by a sense of loneliness and self-deprecation. This is especially true for the Cat (who is not considered an official member of the Zodiac).

In order to free themselves from the curse they must learn to love and accept themselves for who they are. Can they see past their own imperfections and let go of the chains that bind them, or will they doom themselves to a never-ending cycle of pain and anguish?

I am one of the Zodiac!


Character Name: Pajira

Age: 15

Gender: female

Zodiac/Pokemon: Flaaffy/sheep

Appearance:

Personality: Dark, she hides many secrets that no one but herself knows, she is known as "The dark zodiac" she is not very social and she also very temperamental, she has a difficulty of telling her feelings.

History: she was chosen to be one of the zodiacs by unknown reason, she keeps wondering Why they chose her, she suffered because she somehow couldn't Tell her feelings to anyone or show love, since she became orphan at the age of 7, no one told her What to do, and she grew to be dark, and cold-hearted teen she is now.

I am one of the Zodiac!

Character Name: Petra
Age: 15
Gender: female
Zodiac/Pokemon: Rat/Dedenne
Appearance:
Personality: She's very cheerful and positive around other's, though once she's alone she feels very lonely and often will be more self-deprecative and anxious
History: She grew up an only child and her parents were very strict and overbearing, often pressuring her to 'be useful for once". This has given her self-esteem issues and distrust about any friendships she's able to make. (If you'd need more, just tell me. This is just all I could come up with for now//)

I am one of the Zodiac!

Character Name: Emerald.
Age: 13
Gender: Female
Zodiac/Pokemon: Rabbit/Lopunny
Appearance:

Personality: Sweet, kind, and friendly. A bit yandere-ish, and very hyper.
History: The youngest of eight kids, she was always bullied by her abusive older sisters for never being able to do 'girl stuff' that involved boys, and her older brothers tried to help, but it never worked, as they couldn't hug her or other comforting stuff. She ran away from home, to find people like her.

Heya! I used to be SpiritThief, and I really like Paul Shapera's works.

Question for me?

I am one of the Zodiac!

Character Name: Nim
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Zodiac/Pokemon: Mightyena
Appearance:
Personality: She´s kind of a wild and untamend person, loving fights and her own freedom. She always had a problem with relationships because of her own nature, so the grudge doesn´t affect her much, beside her appearance.
History: She was always a difficult kid, but her single mom tried to raise her as best as she could. Nim only loves her mom, that´s why she tried to learn something useful. For now she´s a student (though with bad grades, because she´s straying around late at night).

Emerald tore through the neighborhood. She could her her older sisters shouting at her from the house, threatening to force her to kiss someone in her Pokemon form when they caught her.

Pajira saw her parents perish in a fire, she cried and the only thing she could see or do is her parents dying, she was hidden in a "safe room" in her house, and the door was locked, she covered her eyes and waited for anyone to come and help them, but no one came...

Nim was sitting on the rooftop of her university, watching the sunrise over a bunch of trees around the building.
She sighed, enjoying the small breeze flowing around her. She was up the whole night and came back here right in time, as it seems.

"Well, maths is in 30 minutes!", she thought and grinned. "Time for a NAP!"

(Accepted! That's fine Nyan, I don't mind. <3)

Amaya shouldered her backpack and brushed a lock of blue hair from her face, standing awkwardly in front of the doors of the high school. She could already hear the jeers in her head from the other students and, biting her lip, turned and walked resolutely down the stairs. She didn't want to deal with them today. She couldn't. "I'm not weird," she murmured to herself, fighting back the tears that stung the corner of her eyes.

Emerald was hiding in a bush near the school Amaya went to. She blinked away the memory, gasping. She cleaned herself up, and walked behind Amaya, curiously peering at her.

Feeling like she was being followed, Amaya turned her head to glance out the corner of her eye at Emerald. "Um... Do I know you?" she inquired softly, stopping to stand a few feet from the other girl. "If you're just going to tease me..."
