NAME Raven Turner
NICKNAMES Rae if you are VERY close to her
AGE Sixteen
GENDER Female
HOMETOWN Goldenrod City/Johto
APPEARANCE
Lets start with what some call the windows to the soul, the eyes. Raven's eyes are an attractive shade of ice blue. She does not let her emotions show through her eyes or through her body at all for that matter. When she is very tired dark wrings will appear under her eyes. While it would not be that noticeable on the average skin tone Raven is very pale, something that makes the black rings stand out when they appear. Her long waist-length hair is jet-black. As far as style goes she prefers to leave it down and not mess with it at all, giving it a natural look. When it comes to build Raven is tall and slender yet rather flat and not at all curvy. When Raven is getting dressed she likes to go with a simple yet dark look. Raven stands at five feet nine inches, her weight is 152 pounds.
The shirt for a average outfit for her would be a ragged, loose, black t-shirt with a crescent moon on it. For pants she wears old ragged black shorts that go down to her knees. For shoes she wears hard jet-black combat boots that are often splattered with mud. Her backpack is more like a large, old, rumpled, black sack with a strap on it that she likes to sling over her shoulder. As far as accessories go there is only one thing she wears, a simple amulet that consists of a chunk of amber with a leather string going through it and attaching it to her neck.
PERSONALITY
If you were to tell someone that knew Raven that you thought she was perfect there is a good chance that they would burst out laughing. Raven is not a sweet girl, in fact she is rather cruel. She is often the one to start fights, fights that will often be meaningless. It is hard to impress her, you could take on a whole pack of wild Pokemon with you're bare hands and she will ether call it dumb luck or call you a liar. She is very rude, most often she will not stop to check if something might be insulting before she says it. When she does take a moment to check it is probably because she is in a fight with someone and needs a good insult. This girl is brutally truthful when it comes to telling someone what she thinks about them, if she thought the league champion was a stuck up jerk she would tell him, right to his face with quite possibly a few swear words thrown in. While many people would hold their tongue, worried about what other people would think of them Raven will not for she does not care what others think of her, for the most part at least. There is some part of her deep down that does care what people think of her and longs for a human friend, although her overall aggressive personality prevents it for the most part.
While Raven does not get along with humans for the most part she likes cities, well as long as she does not have to stay in them for more then a week anyway that is. If she is there longer than that she will begin to get annoyed by all the people around her and attempt to get out as soon as possible. While her skills with other humans are not very good she loves Pokemon and seems to get along with them rather well.
Raven is very sensitive. First off if you become very close to her you can call her Rae although she will not be happy about it, however if you are not very close she will probably snap at you. Little things can set her off, from not walking at the right place to the volume on the T.V. being to high. However, when she is sensitive she is sensitive when it comes to people, sound, and smell. When it comes to things like heights, pain, and danger she tends to jump right in and act reckless.
While Raven is very flawed she does have some redeeming qualities. She is brave, something that enables her to stand up for what she believes in. While her apparent lack of fear can be a flaw it can also help her accomplish things that she could not otherwise. She is loyal, once you become her friend she will not betray you unless you betray her. Once you become her friend you might find that the truth is that sometimes she does not mean to be a bitch, she just wants her space. In the end if she sees someone in trouble there is a good chance that she will help due to the guilt eating away at her on the inside or secretly liking them. However, if asked about it she will just say that it means nothing and is a one time deal.
HISTORY
Raven was born in the region of Johto, Goldenrod City Melissa and Jonathan Turner. While the average pregnancy would produce one, maybe two, children Raven was not part of an average pregnancy, in fact it was more like a litter. Raven was one of a group of quintuplets consisting of two girls and three boys. However the only other girl in the group, Carla Turner, died soon after birth. However, having only four children did not calm Raven's father's nerves.
He wanted one child, no more, no less. Four children was more then he thought he could handle, physically or mentally. So, one week after his children as soon as Melissa got out of the hospital, Jonathan Turner ran away from his family and his responsibilities. And so within a week of being alive Raven's family had gone from a family of seven to a family of five.
The first four years of Raven's life where rather uneventful, she rarely left the house let alone leave the city, instead she spent most of her time playing with her brothers, Finn, Jack, and Jake. However this all changed one day, all because her mother turned on the television. As she was channel surfing she saw a news report about a hostage situation in Kanto. She hesitated for only a moment, but a moment was all it took for the reporter to report that one man had been killed. As soon as these words left her mouth she announced that his name was Jonathan as a picture of the man flashed across the screen. She did not say the mans last name, however that was all it took for Raven's mom to break down sobbing and turn off the television. When her husband had left she removed all of his pictured from the house and never told her children about him, only telling them that he was gone. If she had Raven would not have asked what was wrong, she would have known that her father had died.
Upon discovering that her husband had died Melissa fell deep in to depression, turning to drugs and alcohol for comfort. While she fed her kids she did not really pay attention or care about them, maybe if she did she would have noticed and Jake would have been saved. Eight years after their fathers death Raven and Jake fell in with a gang. They remained in the gang without their mother even noticing for a year, until the day they got in to a fight with a rival gang. The cops came due to multiple reports of gunshots, however it was to soon for Jake. Raven's brother had been shot and died in her arms.
When Melissa found out about this she finally realized that she was neglecting her children, however this did not take her take better care of them. Instead she hung herself the night after Jake's death, officially making her remaining children orphans. Raven, Finn, and Jack where sent to live with their aunt in just outside Torrenta. Very recently Raven has decided to go on a pokemon journey in Nexivus. This is not only because she wants a new start but because there is some very real danger, a challenge.

OUT OF CHARACTER
NAME Myoon
HOW DID YOU FIND US? Advertisements
ROLEPLAY SAMPLE Freakishly light blue eyes scanned Merengi, taking in every detail. White tennis shoes took slow and rather unsure steps, as if the one who controlled them was calculating everything around her, trying to make sure nothing was taken by surprise. The truth was that the owner of these shoes was, in fact, trying to predict what would happen with every move she made.
And who was the owner of these shoes? It was was one Erianna Dare, a rather cowardly thirteen year old. However, if one where to look at her they would probably not think she was cowardly, after all, if you had a horrible scar like her you where most likely dangerous. Yes, Erianna was scarred. There was a long, red scar going from her hairline, over her eye, and down to her chin on the left side of her face. However, was not the result of a vicious fight that she probably started like someone would think judging by her appearance, no, this was the result of her adoptive brother attacking her.
This was not the only thing marring her extremely, some would say sickly, pale skin. If you where to look very closely you would see a faded scar going across her throat, what was left of the car crash that rendered her mute. Combine her scars with her extremely light blue eyes, way-to-pale-to-be-healthy skin, and white hair and Erianna could look down right frightening.
However, the truth was that this girl was one of the last things you needed to be scared of. Yes, she was very smart, however she was also rather cowardly. While she was kind she was also depressed an suicidal at times, something she was forced to keep to herself due to being mute and only made it worse.
There where two Pokemon out with her, a Mudkip and a Swablu. The Mudkip, Tasha, was fast asleep in her arms. Her starter Pokemon was being carried due to her short attention span, something that made it an almost one hundred present chance that she would wander off while in the field, when she had fallen asleep in the pale girl's arms. The Swablu, Sky, was happily and silently sitting on Erianna's shoulder. The Swablu was only a baby, not even level two yet. Most of the time she was often silent like Erianna herself, mostly only speaking in song when she did choose to speak.
Erianna froze in fear when she stumbled upon a horrifying sight, a strange woman with tangled hair, strange clothes, and that smelt of smoke. This woman's presence alone was something that almost made Erianna turn tail and run, at least it was until she spotted something worse. There was a girl, around nineteen or twenty by the looks of it, screaming at a Pokemon. With this sight she failed to notice the Mareep, it was like she could not rip her eyes alway from the girl. You know that feeling you get in you're gut when you know something is dangerous, the warning bells caused by instinct that go off in someone head when something bad was most likely about to happen? Well Erianna was currently experiencing that.
Sky, however, was a different story. The young Swablu flew over to the angry trainer and sang with a hint of curiosity in her voice, "chill out, what ya yellin' for?"
