PERSONALITY,
Terumi is an outwardly loud and confident girl, with the inner turmoil to back it up. To those she doesn't know, she's a bit calmer, and tries to be polite. For those she doesn know, however, she lets loose and doesn't quite hold back in either hotheadedness or bluntness or devotion. Despite that, she does tend to think a little selfishly, although she can usually detect that and backtrack a bit when it happens. Due to her asthma and previous case of pneumonia, though, not to mention the disappearance of her brother, Teru tends to inwardly feel short on confidence; which is why she acts like she does outside: to try and make up for it, almost as a way to prove herself given her previous and current health. But she does know when she needs to be serious, and although the transition between emotional settings can be a little rocky sometimes she can pull it off when it's appropriate.
HISTORY,
Terumi and Takuya born thirteen years ago to a father who was a monk in the sprout tower, and a mother who used to help out at the trainer school not far from where they lived. They grew up around Pokemon, with a housetrained Bell sprout that their father raised for his twin children. The two of them got along extremely well, and were all but inseparable as time went by. They soon attended the trainer's school; Takuya found interest and hidden talent in Pokemon breeding, while Terumi couldn't wait until she was old enough to be a trainer. At age five, she was found to have more than just a mild case of asthma, and since then she's had to carry around an inhaler wherever she goes. At age ten, she and Takuya had plans to finally set out. But it was then that, quite suddenly, Teru fell ill with a nasty bout of pneumonia, made worse by her asthmatic condition. She was ill for a year, more or less, and bedridden for a little longer than a half a year after that. Meanwhile, Takuya had gotten a high-merit offer to become an apprentice to a skilled Pokemon breeder in the Kanto region, and after being persuaded to not let the opportunity go to waste, he left not long after Teru had gotten sick. He wrote often by mail for a year before suddenly no more letters came, and they've heard no word of him since. When Teru was finally allowed by her mother to leave the house and become a trainer, she vowed to train hard and find Takuya wherever he may be.
