  • Nicknames: "Val"
  • Sex: Female
  • Species: Ruulan
  • Age: Mentally and physically 14. Chronologically 25.
  • Height: 4'10''

Personality
Valorie is a quirky megalomaniac of a girl with a penchant for beauty and showboating. She isn't a very modest person; she loves when her ego is stroked and puts a lot of weight into things like her appearance and others thoughts' of her. She is also a sore loser. This all stems back to how much weight she puts into the thoughts of others. Valorie is deeply motivated by a desire to earn the respect and admiration of her peers. She pushes herself hard and expects the same of her pokemon, following in the steps of legendary trainers by fighting alongside her pokemon rather than standing back and letting them do all of the work. While Valorie is 25 years old and full of 25 years worth of life experience she has not physically or mentally aged past the age of 14. This presents an odd duality where she is mature emotionally, but immature in most other ways. Valorie has a love-hate relationship with her immortality. On one hand, she's pretty happy with her body and not worrying about age-related health issues including death is a welcome concept. On the other--everything else.

Valorie is a rather affectionate individual, however, she doesn't like to be thought of as such and usually reacts with embarrassment if given affection in public. It also takes her time to warm up to someone before she will consider giving any affection of her own. Although she is quite competitive, this only extends to pokemon battles and beauty. When confronted with the possibility of physical harm to herself Valorie suffers from cowardice and she has a fairly low threshold for pain. She dreams of becoming the most renowned battling trainer in the world and of becoming a dragon master comparable to her idol, Lance.

Backstory
Born and raised in Iccirus City, Unova, Valorie obtained her first pokemon, Charmander, from her father at the tail end of a business trip in Kanto. She obtained her dratini as an egg from a mysterious dragon type specialistic whom did not have the time to raise her himself. She trained hard, but was unable to beat Iccirus City Gym. Distraught, she signed up for the Pokemon Trainer's Academy on Oak Island to better herself studying and training hard during her time there.

A couple of years later, after having left the academy to pursue her dreams, Valorie became involved in a massive 'gang war' between several criminal teams. She became involved with one of these teams, specifically a vigilante group dedicated to thwarting the other team's plans. During this time she succumbed to stealing pokemon from the rival trainers to bolster her numbers. She stole several pokemon, primarily from trainers of less than stellar morality. One fateful evenin Valorie was killed in battle, the cause of which being suffocation in the midst of a raging sandstorm. She was brought back from beyond the brink of death, however, by Cresselia, who she had played a pivotal role in freeing from one of the rival gangs that meant to use her as a weapon. Cresselia used all of her power to bring Valorie back, becoming one with Valorie in the process. This was done not just to save Valorie's life, but to keep her pokemon from going their separate ways. This is the point at which Valorie gained her immortality and other supernatural traits, trapping her at the age at which she died, 14.

After the war had ended Valorie resumed chasing her dreams, however, she was now burdened by the reality that she still wasn't strong enough to achieve them even after everything she had gone through. Valorie chased her dreams for years until she was "technically" an adult. At this point, she had to go through the trouble of getting an adult ID, which was only a problem because she had difficulty convincing anyone she wasn't trying to fake her age. After she became legally recognized as an adult she made the mistake of beginning to drink and developed a drinking problem, compounded by all of her self-loathing on account of her still having yet to achieve anything close to her original dreams. Valorie made the effort to quit drinking cold turkey, however, after her fighting spirit was revitalized.

Cresselia's Inheritance
Valorie absorbed what remained of Cresselia's soul after the legendary pokemon's death, inheriting a bit of her leftover power. The two souls are now one in the same body, sharing a symbiotic relationship.
  • Valorie is incapable of aging, even if forced by magical means.
  • A divine force, specifically Cresselia's, protects Valorie's soul from being stolen or harmed.
  • Valorie resists killing blows, meaning that she will miraculously manage to survive all but the most immediately fatal of blows.
  • Valorie occasionally demonstrates a split personality, the other personality, of course, being Cresselia's.
  • Valorie's dreams are often lucid and prophetic, occasionally even being relevant to her life.
  • Valorie's eyes glow with the colors of the northern lights shimmering beneath their surfaces. The glow is strong enough to dimly illuminate a couple of feet in front of her face. Anyone staring into Valorie's eyes will experience both a relaxing effect and a healing effect. The relaxing effect encourages a positive state of mind and helps one sleep. The healing effect can slowly heal most wounds and cure even the most persistent of diseases by supercharging the body's natural healing abilities. However, this effect does not work on Valorie herself.
  • Anti-Magic has no effect on the above abilities because they are fueled by Valorie's own power, rather than any latent power she could be disconnected from.

Amni's symbiosis
Valorie and Amni the Reuniclus share a powerful neurological bond
  • Valorie is capable of communicating through telepathy with Amni and vice versa, even over long distances.
  • Valorie is capable of reading Amni's emotions and vice versa, even over long distances. This includes the ability to perceive things like pain and other physical sensations.
  • Valorie and Amni can sense each other's life force well enough to always have an idea of where the other is, down to the direction.

Battle Pokemon
  • Dragonite ♀ (Power Level ≈ ??? / 100) [Moves = Hurricane, Twister, Dragon Claw, Superpower, Roost, Dragon Dance]
    Valorie's dragonite is giant, standing at 12'1'' and being over twice the weight of your average dragonite. It goes almost without saying that this has a significant effect on her abilities in combat. (Consider her effective base stats 100 HP / 165 Attack / 115 Defense / 110 Special Attack / 110 Special Defense / 70 Speed). She's actually a big baby however, viewing Valorie as her mother and being quite clingy. The other pokemon don't have the heart to correct her. She has the ability multiscale.
  • Haxorus ♀ (Power Level ≈ ??? / 100) [Moves = Outrage, Earthquake, Poison Jab, Dragon Dance, Dragon Claw, Guillotine]
    Haxorus is a hunter who becomes stir crazy when she isn't allowed to roam at least once a day. She refuses to eat normal food and compulsively seeks out challenging prey, particularly other females. She has the ability rivalry.
  • Charizard ♀ (Power Level ≈ 65 / 100) [Moves = Dragon Claw, Will-O-Wisp, Flare Blitz, Belly Drum, Mimic, Roost]
    Charizard is the angsty older sister of Valorie's team, having been starved for attention in favor of Valorie's other pokemon before she fully evolved. She has a fiery temper and is jealous of the attention Valorie's dragonite gets. In spite of this, she is also Valorie's wisest pokemon. Valorie has been attempting to get Charizard to Mega Evolve for years without success.
  • Rex the Tyrantrum ♂ (Power Level ≈ 65 / 100) [Moves = Crunch, Head Smash, Dragon Tail, Aerial Ace, Hone Claws, Rock Polish]
    Rex is a proud, grumpy old timer of a pokemon. Constantly living in the past, he thinks very highly of himself and looks down on pokemon who don't stack up to his impressive 9'2'' feet (2.794 meters) height. He does not like the idea that other pokemon are stronger than him and will frequently antagonize any pokemon that annoys him until they fight him. Rex is not a pokemon who learns his lesson and to that end Valorie has done her best to help him realize his dreams of being the most fearsome pokemon around. Rex is one of the pokemon Valorie stole as mentioned in her backstory.
  • Flygon ♀ (Power Level ≈ 65 / 100) [Moves = Outrage, Earthquake, U-Turn, Defog, Iron Tail, Earth Power]
    Flygon is an approval-seeking pokemon, having a somewhat dog-like disposition towards others. Nowhere is this more apparent than with her tendency to greet Valorie with friendly licks. She is one of Valorie's most loyal pokemon in the sense that she is the least likely to question any order she is given. Flygon has the ability 'sand stream' instead of levitate, meaning she can passively summon sandstorms during battle. Flygon is one of the pokemon Valorie stole as mentioned in her backstory.
  • Hydreigon ♀ (Power Level ≈ 65 / 100) [Moves = Draco Meteor, Dark Pulse, Tailwind, Earth Power, Flash Cannon, Taunt]
    Hydreigon is a voracious monster whose presence can only be described as... intense. She has a tendency to bite anything that isn't Valorie and has a very volatile disposition, so she isn't often let out of her ball around strangers unless her brutal nature is needed. Hydreigon is one of the pokemon Valorie stole as mentioned in her backstory.

Off-Hand Pokemon
  • Shu the Yamask ♂ (Power Level ≈ 20 / 100) [Moves = Night Shade, Telekinesis, Destiny Bond, Disable, Heal Block, Protect]
    Shu is an odd case of a telepathic yamask. He actually asked Valorie to protect him from having to fight and, in turn, lent her his psychic aid. He is very old, his life before undeath having predated modern society. While he rarely raises a hand to harm another, he occasionally helps others fight with a supporting role. Personality-wise, Shu is a very snarky individual. As a very old pokemon that used to be a human before his death, he often finds himself frustrated by modern culture.
  • Kiyoko the Zoruark ♂ (Power Level ≈ 55 / 100) [Moves = Detect, Double Team, Aura Sphere, Iron Defense, Night Daze, Snarl]
    Kiyoko is a pokemon anomaly, a zoroark filled with power of aura. This is a result of him being the subject of experimentation as a child. He's a rather reclusive pokemon, generally preferring not to be surrounded by others.
  • Gyarados ♂ (Power Level ≈ 35 / 100) [Moves = Hyper Beam, Ice Beam, Surf, Waterfall, Whirlpool, Dive]
    Gyarados' personality and quirks remain unrevealed, being a recent catch.
  • Doublade ♀ (Power Level ≈ 60 / 100) [Moves = Autotomize, Sacred Sword, Shadow Sneak, Swords Dance, Head Smash, Toxic]
    Originally caught as a consequence of Valorie foolhardily grabbing her hilt. However, when she did not die and Doublade, as a Honedge, would not let go of her in turn they grew to become partners.
  • Goodra ♀ (Power Level ≈ 60 / 100) [Moves = Infestation, Sludge Wave, Thunder, Rain Dance, Toxic, Double Team]
    Goodra is... not a very smart pokemon. Silly and energetic, she enjoys playing around more than she does battling.
  • Nathan the Rayquaza ♂ (Power Level ≈ 70 / 100) [Moves = Outrage, Dragon Pulse, Extremespeed, Hyper Beam]
  • Evrir the Zoroark ♀ (Power Level ≈ 81 / 100) [Moves = Night Daze, Hidden Power, Flamethrower, Calm Mind]
  • Belana the Lugia ♀ (Power Level ≈ 70 / 100) [Moves = Aeroblast, Recover, Psychic, Sky Attack]
  • Amni the Reuniclus ♂ (Power Level ≈ 77 / 100) [Moves = Acid Armor, Calm Mind, Psyshock, Focus Blast, Recover, Telekinesis]

held one of her arms tenderly as if it were broken. If Jennifer examined it however there was nothing wrong. She was just incredibly sore. Valorie looked up to spot the female that had finally ended what seemed like her suffering and emitted an audible, but brief sigh of relief. "I-I'll be fine..." she said, dismissing reason for concern. She didn't much like feeling like she couldn't help herself. "I don't feel so good though—But...How is this supposed to help me?" she then proceeded to ask, somewhat curious. Frankly, she couldn't understand.

"Didn't I tell you before?" Jennifer was breathing a little heavy, too. "The strength of a Pokemon is a reflection of the strength of its trainer. There's a world-beater in there somewhere, Valorie, and by breaking this shell of anxiety and fear, I'm gonna force her to come out." Come on, hand over my shoulders. We're gonna walk together to the break room."

Valorie Ryder seemed to consider the words. But... would getting physically stronger help her pokemon get stronger? Physical strength hadn't exactly seemed like a desirable feminine trait to her, so she'd never really bothered to try to get stronger herself out of sheer disinterest. She decidedly stayed quiet and... trusted Jennifer. She had nothing to lose, right? What was the worst that could happen? She had to reach up to wrap an arm around Jennifer's shoulder though, as she was still quite short. It was also slightly embarrassing for her, but her sheer lack of pride allowed this for now. "I've never hurt so much..." she commented idly. Her mind was elsewhere, fatigue distracting her from progressive conversation.

Jennifer Harsdorff nodded. "Good. Then tomorrow, this won't hurt so much." It wasn't even about getting stronger--it was about developing skills and confidence. What was difficult before would be easy after a while, leading to a positive mentality, which combined with Valorie's natural stubbornness would lead to her being a formidable opponent. "I'll explain a little bit once you're hydrated. You see, there's no point to having your Pokemon grow stronger if you're not willing to do the same for yourself."

Valorie Ryder shivered, despite the lack of cold. H-Hard physical work? But... can't you see the skirt? I'm a /lady/! Conversations about how lady-like alcoholism was aside, Valorie was kind of afraid of the prospect of doing this every day. "A-Alright..." she responded. Hydration indeed. She was just... out of it. She was definitely a stranger to this, but she was also trusting. One could even say that her inability to age had preserved a childlike dependency in her personality. She was willing to play along, if not for the faint hope that somehow things would get better.

Jennifer Harsdorff sat Valorie on the bench and bent over to get a few things from the fridge. "Eat up. Your body needs the energy to rebuild after getting ripped up today. And before you ask, yes, this is for your own good. I didn't believe it at first, either, but look at me now."

The coffee machine was empty. This was unforgivable.

"Hang on, I need to sort something out with my crew..." And with that, she stomped off, leaving Valorie alone with her thoughts and the sound of "who was the fink that didn't make another pot of joe"

Valorie Ryder was physically sat down and couldn't help but blush a bit. People usually allowed her to be so independent! Perhaps it was for the best, though. She eyed the fridge as Jennifer searched and ultimately wound up waiting as told. She couldn't help but muse over the notion of coffee. It had always seemed so bitter to her tastebuds, but then again, alcohol. Things might be different now... She emitted a second sigh of relief as she was finally able to sit down and set to work eating. If/When Jennifer came back however she'd find that Valorie's chosen portions had been modest at best.

Jennifer Harsdorff came back in, still a little miffed. "I'm not surprised nobody piped up. Can't blame 'em, I suppose." And so she was left to start the new pot. "Yeah, I realize it's not the tastiest stuff in the world, but it keeps you going...oh, right." Immortality. Of course she wouldn't have a teenager's appetite, she wasn't growing. Duh. "I'll just take those leftovers, if you don't mind...just rest and focus on what you learned today. How it applies to battling."

Valorie Ryder blinked. She honestly hadn't caught that. Perhaps Jennifer didn't realize it but she was very much mune to hunger, among other things. She just wasn't a big eater! Hod do you think she kept that slim form? You didn't run around Unova and stay under 120 without some sacrifices! "A-Alright... It wasn't that bad though." she replied, shrugging lightly and handing the leftovers to Jennifer. She then placed her hand in her lap. "What are you going to do..?" she then continued by asking, curious. Sure, she had plenty to think about, but she also desired companionship—A friend to help her think. She would never admit it, but it frankly wasn't her strong suit.

Jennifer Harsdorff plopped down next to her new friend. "What am I gonna do? Well, hopefully, we get a challenger in here tomorrow. Someone with a few badges in their case, preferably. You gave me a good fight the other day, but your head wasn't in it. As a Gym Leader, my job isn't just to test you--it's to encourage you to get stronger, both as a Trainer and as a person. You were hitting your head against a wall, just battling everyone in sight. I thought you needed some help to get your head together."

She put an arm around Valorie. "If you ever need me for something, even at 3 in the morning, just call and I'll be there for you. Let's trade PokéLog numbers."

Valorie Ryder turned to face Jennifer as she plopped down next to her, her irises still the unnatural color and texture of the northern lights. Buuut nobody asks about that, so. "Badges..." she said thoughtfully. She took a moment to consider that she had apparently given Jennifer a run for her money. It didn't even occur to her that depression would effect her ability to battle. "I... see." she responded in an unenthusiastic tone. Her mind was now elsewhere, only to be distracted once again back into reality by Jennifer's arm? Her response. She honestly caved in and leaned over to give Jennifer a rather affectionate hug wordlessly. She didn't explain herself, she just did it. After a moment she let go however and sat back up straight, almost reluctantly. "...I used to have a bunch of those." she said, not acknowledging what she had just done and pulling out both a PokeLog and what appeared to be a badge case. She flipped the badge case open and /bam/! The first six Unovan badges, including the Trio Badge. That was a badge that hadn't been obtainable for a long time. Were they even worth anything to anyone anymore? They were to Valorie, and yet they reminded her of her failures. She shook her head briefly and offered Jennifer a look at her pokeloog.

A few button presses later and bam. "There. Now you can call me if you need anything. Six badges from Unova...man. Too bad about Brycen, huh. What'd that gym guide say...oh yeah. Something about how the Badge is a symbol of achievement. You should feel proud when you look at your collection."

Valorie Ryder nodded solemnly. Iccirus City gym had been the first gym she had ever challenged and the gym she couldn't beat. Then she'd gotten whisked away on... /stuff/ and gotten mixed up in teams and involved in fights she'd never asked for. Then she'd died! She looked at the badges then up at Jennifer. Could the other begin to understand the things she'd seen, the things she'd been through? ...Would she have lived if she had joined Team Draco like that one girl had offered? She shuddered, unable to cope with the anxiety. She needed a drink for this sort of thing. "Thanks..." she responded. "There's something I need to do though—Will we see eachother tomorrow morning..?" she proceeded to ask.

"Absolutely. And if I don't see you tomorrow, I can always give you a call." Jennifer nodded and waggled the PokeLog. "Now let's drag your carcass to a proper bed, huh? Your back will thank you in the morning."

Valorie Ryder moved along at a sluggish pace, her body sore and her eyes tired. She wasn't out here for her health. The cold winter air blew at her blonde hair and the hem of her skirt. She was listening to her PokeLog, a recorded message from a long time ago she'd saved. The sound of a male voice could be heard emitting from the speaker. As she walked along she finally came to a stop, realizing she was now on the far outskirts of the city. She didn't care. She didn't want any prying eyes to see what she was doing, prying human eyes anyway—What exactly was she doing?

The street was mostly desolate, and wind whipped slightly as a figure obscured by shadows trekked up it alone. His features were hard to distinguish, as there was baggy clothing obscuring it along with the lack of light. His movement halted as a sound broke the silence, and a shadowy figured darted at him. Amni tensed up, but was unable to find out what happened next as commercials came on and interrupted his viewing.

He was standing in somebody's yard, staring in through their window and watching their television. Well, he was, because not that his viewing pleasure was cut off by the treacherous advertisements, his interest was lost and he had taken up leaving the city.

It wasn't long until he reached the outskirts himself, using his hands to walk on rather than the usual floating, just so he could see how many different patterns he would be able to leave in the snow. His enjoyment out of this, however, was also interrupted as he bumped into a human he hadn't seen before. He adjusted his body to look up at her, and his ears as well as eyes tuned in to the PokeLog and what it was playing.

"I-I'm sorry! I didn't see you, I was too busy looking at my snow tracks..."

Valorie Ryder was bumped into by something semi-solid, and the rather short girl stopped in her tracks. She was just under five feet, and /appeared/ to be rather young. The voice on the device seemed to be asking her how she was doing, and where she was. Valorie stared at Amni in a mildly frightened manner, only to calm down as she realized this was no human leaving... confusion. He might not have been a human but he had /talked/. She only knew one pokemon that had talked before. Okay two. "U-Um..." she responded, shivering slightly in the cold. She slowly closed her pokelog, cutting off the older male voice as it finished telling her he missed her. Now who could that be? She was honestly speechless, looking at the pokemon as if expecting an explanation. He might notice that the irises of her eyes were highly unusual, being both the color and texture of the northern lights. They also glowed in the dark slightly, and bestowed a pleasant feeling to any that gazed into them. The feeling was supernatural, almost... psychic in nature. She would also feel rather odd to anyone trying to read her aura or presence. Hmm...

He appeared to bounce, pushing off of the ground with his arms and coming to a fixed position in the air. He was at eye level with her now, and looked her over as she attempted to stammer out a response. She was shivering, and Amni wondered if it were due to the cold, or if he had frightened her to that extent.

Regardless, he offered a smile and held out a rather large hand to her. "Sorry about that, again. I'm Amni, self named for amniotic fluid which is... sort of self-explanatory." He used his free hand to gesture at the rest of his body, as if to further point out the reasoning behind the name. He found himself transfixed in her eyes as he waited for the handshake that may or may not be coming, and felt a pleasant warmth shoot through him.

It put a dopey smile on his face, because it felt good, and he knew he'd be able to replicate and bestow the feeling back by tenfold.

Valorie Ryder was... further confused. She for one did not understand the reference and... probably never would. Because she was too young. She would always be too young. Wow, that was tragic. But in all seriousness, her vocabulary just... wasn't at that level. At first Valorie was a bit uncomfortable. Wild pokemon were unpredictable after all. You never knew whether they didn't care for you, wanted your hand, or wanted your flesh. That last option was pretty terrifying to her for obvious reasons, but this one seemed almost charming! She held out her hand and took his, quite unsure how to grip it. Hers was small, and slightly bony. She herself was pretty skinny, but was that really a surprise? Probably not. When her eyes blinked, the pleasant feeling vanished ever so briefly. Was she even aware of the feeling she was giving off? "I'm... Valorie." she responded, slightly quiet in tone. "Valorie Ryder" she continued. Now that the silence was broken, she was starting to get a bit more talkative. "You're... a reun-ih-clus." she said out loud, as her mind caught up to the rest of the conversation.
