Name; Iban Ezekial
Age; 23
Gender; Male
Species; Lab-created Gallade pokemorph
Appearance; Iban has been made taller than average due to a self-performed experiment that morphed his DNA with that of a Gallade. He stands at around 6"5 and has green hair (also due to his experiment) with a rather uncomfortable spike protruding from his front and his back... which makes it very hard to find clothing that fits. He has blades, but he rarely finds them necessary to use. They were mostly an attempt to look more similar to a Gallade.
Personality; Although he's a bit eccentric, he has a passion for pokemon and a kind heart. He believes that experimenting on pokemon and people without consent is wrong, so any experiments he performs are done either on himself and using only DNA he obtains from pokemon. He's not necessarily anti-social; he just doesn't normally have people to interact with. He enjoys a good time as much as the next person and has a sense of humor that few understand.
History; Iban has been working on gene splicing for seven years now, although the first two years were in secret. Rather than go off an an adventure with a pokemon companion, he was forced to stay at home and study. His parents believed pokemon training was too violent for their son. They were both engineers at the local power plant and thought he should do the same when he grew older. However, he had a different career in mind. He secretly worked on plans to create new pokemon. It started off as drawings of pokemon he saw outside; then, he started combining pokemon in drawings. With access to several scientific books on how the DNA of electric pokemon works, he discovered that the DNA of many pokemon worked similarly. Once he turned eighteen, he told his parents he wanted to study at a laboratory on a remote island. They reluctantly let him apply and, once accepted, go. He began his work. He felt it would be unethical to work with living pokemon. He considered performing an experiment on himself for two years, and at age twenty-two he went through with it. He used the DNA of a Gallade and a formula he devised in order to combine his DNA with that of the pokemon. His experiment was a success, but at the cost of some of of his sanity. He was soon thought to be too eccentric to work in the typical field of DNA splicing. He soon left to pursue the field on his own. He now studies pokemon away from the lab, taking samples from all the different pokemon he encounters.
Other; None
