PROFESSION, breeder


PERSONALITY,

bright - adj. - full of animation; cheerful

orchid has always been the most cheerful girl in littleroot. hardly anything seems to get her down. an optimist at heart, she can turn even the worst of situations into a happy encounter or a bitterly good experience.

naive - adj. - having or expressing innocence and credulity; ingenuous

the little eleven year old is too young to know the cynical acts and sarcastic mockings of the world. she's incredibly naive, willing to follow any person who so much as gives her a kind word or a pleasing look. it's lucky she has her pokemon to watch out for her.

kind - adj. - of a friendly, generous, or warm-hearted nature

if there's one thing orchid can't stand, it's the lack of kindness and warmth in the world. she had been brought up by what can only be described as "hippy" parents - the kind that believe in world peace. she'll often befriend pokemon after taking care of them for a while, which helps her in her goal of being a great pokemon breeder.

carefree - adj. - without worry or responsibility

as a child, all orchid is concerned with is how her necessities will be met: her food, her water, her pokemon. there is no room for adult troubles and tribulations.

agile - adj. - quick in movement; nimble

orchid may not look like a speed demon, but she's incredibly quick. her slim frame and short stature makes it easy for her to run fast - she's aerodynamically sound! - and her low weight makes it easy for her to climb trees, which she might often do to avoid sleeping on the ground.

opinionated - adj. - holding stubbornly and often unreasonably to one's own opinions

orchid is incredibly opinionated about things, and it's often hard to budge her from her set idea of things. for example, she detests pokemon battles and contests because she feels as though they exploit pokemon for merely show.

HISTORY,

orchid maylene redbay was born on a sunny may seventeeth in the town of littleroot, hoenn, the second child of onyx and cinder redbay. her mother and father were both small shop co-owners - they tended to the beautiful flowers in littleroot, growing them with loving care. they spent similar time on their youngest child, orchid, since their first-born - fifteen year old daisy - had gone off on her pokemon adventure.

and so, orchid grew up in a loving environment, filled with flowers. she soon acquired a green thumb, and it wasn't long until orchid's desire for growth and nuturing transferred to pokemon.

at first, it was orchid's mother's beloved poochyena - fondly nicknamed rue - who orchid took over caring for. orchid seemed to know exactly when rue was in need of something - though not without trial and error - and soon, rue evolved into a mightyena. it was then that orchid thought about becoming a pokemon breeder.

FAMILY, daisy redbay [ sister ]
