PT | Linas

★ Name:: Linas
★Tribal Name:: Tranquil Sabre

★ Age:: 23
★Job:: Guard
★ Gender:: Male
★Pokemon:: Gardevoir
★Birth Season:: Winter
★ Height:: 6’2”

★Ability:: Trace
★Nature:: Brave 
★Characteristic:: Hates to lose

★ Personality:: Linas’ main concern is doing his job well and not bothering anybody. He’s constantly calm and collected, rarely allowing things to get to him. On the outside, at least. He’s great at keeping a calm composure despite panicking or being upset or happy. If anything, he’s actually quite susceptible to these emotions, but they very rarely show on the outside. He might come off as a bit haughty now and then, mostly due to his unwillingness to accept help. It generally takes quite a bit of convincing, and if he doesn’t get insulted in the process he might finally give in and let you help—but just a little.
★ Hobbies:: 

Practicing swordsmanship

Working on his psychic abilities

★Weaknesses/Fears::

He has no idea why, but his entire life he’s been afraid of Zoroarks, gijinka or otherwise. The moment he sees one he freezes up and has no clue what to do. Zoruas aren’t that bad though.

He has trouble using his psychic abilities around Ghost and Steel types, and their attacks affect him more. His father being a ghost type however, he’s gotten used to the uncomfortable feeling he gets around ghost types, and barely notices it anymore.

He’s very susceptible to poison…even if it’s not really poison, just some food that doesn’t quite agree with him. Due to this, he’s an extremely picky eater.

He’s starting to worry that he might be going crazy, what with all these odd memories of dreams or whatever they are. He’s not sure if it’s something all gardevoirs experience or if it’s just him, and he would ask his parents…except they’re dead, so that doesn’t quite work. And he’s too afraid people will think he’s insane if he asks somebody.

He believes himself to be more important than he really is (although he rarely shows it) and whenever something happens that proves him wrong, it really throws him off and he’ll have a hard time getting himself together for a while afterwards.

While Linas isn’t exactly weak, he does have rather low stamina.

★Weapons:: He’s very good with a sword, and okay with a bow and arrow
★ History:: 

    Linas was born to a gourgeist father and a gardevoir mother. His mother would often take him out to train, since it was hard for the young ralts to develop his psychic skills with his father around. He loved his father dearly, but his ghost-type-ness always set him on edge. It was partly because of this that he spent a lot of his childhood away from the house, messing around, exploring. It didn’t take him long to decide that being a guard was the right thing for him. He didn’t know why, but it just felt right, and soon enough he had an apprenticeship.

    His mother fell ill when he was seventeen, and he often skipped his training to stay by her side. This delayed his promotion to being an actual guard, but he didn’t care. Waiting another couple seasons was worth spending time with his mum. His father, however, spent every waking second beside her, and soon enough caught the same illness. It was with difficulty that Linas agreed to stay away so he wouldn’t catch it himself, although he still visited now and then despite the medics’ orders. His mum passed away a couple days after his naming ceremony, and his father followed a couple days later. He was sad of course, but glad they hung around long enough to see him reach adulthood.

    Things were calm after that. He became a guard, did his job just like he was supposed to. It was when he was 22 when the calm was broken, and by the silliest of things. He was chatting with someone, discussing family and the like, when they asked if he had any siblings. Before he’d even thought about it, he found himself saying yes—then quickly took that back and said no. Of course not, he’d always been an only child, he had no clue why he said yes. He was amused by such a stupid mistake at first, but the more he thought about it the more it unsettled him. He knew he was an only child, and yet this memory—faint as it was—seemed so real. He felt like he had a younger sister and an older brother. Every time he thought about them he suddenly felt sad, and he could almost, almost remember their names…but every time he thought he was about to remember them, they slipped away. But it was ridiculous, he remembered his childhood vividly, and he’d never had siblings. It was a dream probably, or maybe they were childhood friends that his memory somehow twisted into siblings. The more he tried to push it away, the more it bothered him, and the more he felt like he’d known people and places he was sure he never knew, and his real childhood wasn’t so…real. He would’ve asked his mother about it, but she’d been dead for years. So, he just forced it down and pretended like nothing was wrong, forced himself to act like everything was just fine. Mixed in with these weird fake memories, sometimes he swore he felt like he’d died, and it freaked him out. None of the memories were vivid of course, more of a feeling that they’d happened, and somehow that just made it worse.

    He ignores them however, and tries to pretend they don’t exist. He lived his life, and he knows exactly what happened. He’s learned to ‘lock them away’ in a sense, partially with his psychic abilities, but sometimes when they catch him off guard (especially when he’s trying to sleep) they come rushing back and leave him confused and paranoid.  

★Moveset:: 

Moonblast

Psychic

Heal Pulse

Shadow Sneak [inherited from father]
★Level Estimate:: 58

★ Bad Habits, or Specific Traits:: 

Sometimes when the ‘memories’ get too bad, he’ll just skip sleeping and go patrol in the middle of the night to keep himself awake…which usual ends in him wandering around half asleep and almost getting himself killed.

Stubbornly refuses to admit he might have a problem

Too much exposed skin makes him uncomfortable, whether it’s on himself or others. He’s learned to deal with it, but he will look away or blush a bit if he runs into a Tao.

More will be added as he’s rped~
