a divine man is a dead man.

[.:s n o w:.]

Hello to all! I'm Snow, with my one and only character (for now I'm sure) Ivan Topaz who is in need for some plots . I'm still rather new around here, so I'd like to get him involved in as much as possible. SO, I'll start with explaining who he is <3

Ivan, who goes by Van, is _nineteen years old and grew up in _{Goldenrod city} homeless and raised by his two older brothers. Instead of learning the basic things children learned at school and going to soccer practice or any other type of after school activity, Van was being taught how to _pickpocket unsuspecting civilians, dealing with others who lived off the street and _fighting for his life. Unfortunately, when his eldest brother _died from a drug trade gone wrong, his life had collapsed and his remaining brother left him in search of a better life. Van got into _drugs himself until he was found after ODing and was rushed to the hospital where he was forced to get treatment. He's currently a _{recovering addict}who drifts from place to place, not specifically searching for anything but enjoys the feeling of travel. But Van has practically traveled nearly everywhere he could possibly go and so he came to the lab and got his first pokemon so he could continue his travels in new places.

Now personality wise, he's often referred to as the _{cheshire cat} because of his humoring yet _questionable personality. He's a _{rather laid back} and a 'glow with the flow' kind of guy, rarely getting upset over anything even if it were a life and death situation. He always takes things as a _joke, finding something funny about the situation. It rare not seeing a smile on his face, even if it is just a small one. He's actually quite the _actor as well, though he had no professional experience, he knows how to summon any kind of emotion inside of him and present it to an 'audience' full of people even though he rarely feels these emotions himself. It's how he _manipulates people into getting what he wants, _{disregarding their feelings} or their own needs. This doesn't mean that he isn't loyal to others. He's probably one of the few you'd want to come to your rescue. But there is a side to him that doesn't show in his everyday personality, which is a _fearful side. A side that doesn't want to ever depend on someone again and which becomes the reason why he disregards others. He's turned himself who is cold, callous with dark humor, only giving _trust to his pokemon.

SO YES. I NEED SOME PLOTS, I'm open for anything really, but here's what I'm specifically looking for:

F R I E N D S : Some familiar faces for Van would be awesome. He does appear friendly to nearly everyone he meets so I couldn't imagine one or two that'd he be glad to see from time to time. A traveling partner would be awesome as well or even someone who just tags along from time to time <3 I'd prefer a female counter part (he has to stare at something during those long trips) for the traveling part but male friends are still welcome as well as friendly rivals <3.

E N E M I E S : Enemies/rivalries are always welcome <3 baha I'm sure he'd tick off more than a few people with his all smiles personality and the taunting he does <3 Battles can also go into this category as well.

L O V E : I'm making this option available but I'd like to say this first: I cannot make my characters fall in love. I just can't-- it's not in me. If I do, I make things awkward and it's just not fun. He's straight meaning no boys plz :X. I can't say what specifically he likes (hell, he doesn't even know) but if we rp together and I like their chemistry, I may pop you a note to see if you'd like something to form or you could do the same C:

O T H E R : Random threads or for threads that you cannot specify in the categories above go here. If you have a idea you want to play out, I'm open for anything so do be shy XD!

Yeppp so I think that's it. I'll have three threads open for him at this time so if you'd like to rp comment below!

He and Amanda can travel together for a bit if you are interested? Or they should at least met.

[Seas]

Laqueta could be a friend. I think they'd get along, at least on the surface.

Griff's the other pickpocket in town here, although he's more of a white collar/heist criminal that just happens to have super sticky fingers. Currently, he's been reduced to a cutpurse and con-artist though. He's actually on parole from juvie right now, and the shrinks were like GO TRAIN POKEMANZ to let off steam, and he's running with that for now. Griff's an epic liar himself too, but fiercely loyal to his friends (er, what few there are).

If you want past connections, if Van ever passed through Oxgate (or spent any time in the past year in prison), they could've met then. They could've been acquaintances, friends, enemies, whatever. I don't see Griff as anything but a social druggie, but I could certainly see him dealing or playing the middleman. </stream of thought>

[Cree-licious!]

I feel like I posted in this thread already. Oh well. Lol

I feel like Braids would either try and gain his trust and become potential allies or it would eventually bomb and they would become rivals/enemies.

What do you think?

[.:s n o w:.]

cccccc8 everyone is so amazing on this site, just so you all know <33

UM UM UM.

@ash I'D LIKE THE TWO TO MEET AND SEE HOW THEY INTERACT! I'm very curious of Amanda so it'd be great if the two could meet first and see what happens <3

@seas omg just read her profile, Laq sounds ADORABLEEE >U< thetooshouldmeet uUu; I'm excited to see what she's like. I think Van will find her entertaining 8'D

@kat KATTT. So glad you commented AH ANOTHER THIEF, THAT'S EPIC. omg I really like that idea plus just having that in common will make Van like him more I think the two should have definitely known each other from the past and since van drifts from place to place, I can imagine him hanging around Oxgate long enough to meet him friends or acquaintances sounds great!

@cree LOL I FEEL LIKE I DO THAT ALL THE TIME. but you have not so you're good POTENTIAL ALLIES SOUNDS AWESOME. I think the two would make an interesting duo >D

[Seas]

Sounds good to me. And I like your nickname for her, Laq. Should've thought of that. Just send me a PM when you've decided what you're doing, you know, Featherwing City thread, or somewhere in the other regions....

I'm afraid I'm a bit busy at the moment, so I probably won't be posting too quickly, but I'll try to post at least every five days. Feel free to leave my plot for last.
