Name; Kara Ike - simple enough.
Species; Human,but can manipulate aura somewhat due to her father being a lucario morph - but that's another story.
Gender; Kara is female.
Gym/Type; Fighting City - Fighting
Pokemon;
Ryder - lucario - This is the riolu that found Kara all those years ago. She is very loyal to Kara and often is seen with her,working out. Ryder is never in a pokeball and some question whether she was actually eventually captured properly,or whether Ryder just stuck with Kara.
Simus - Shiny Blaziken - He is surprisingly calm for a fire pokemon,but is one tough opponent to face.
Comet - Machamp - This machamp is known for his ability to thrown very fast punches that are difficult to dodge.
Galleus - Gallade - Very quiet and rarely seen in gym battles,but more often helping with the judging. Don't underestimate him,however - he is a good fighter.
Crush - Zangoose - Every gym leader has a couple of oddities in his or her team, and Crush is Kara's. Crush has access to some of the more powerful fighting type attacks,while still maintaining her normal type flexibility - she is the one to watch.
Knockout - Electivire - The other oddity in Kara's team. Knockout was once her father's electabuzz,but was given to Kara when she became gym leader. Since then,Knockout has evolved. She has access to some fighting type moves,but is mostly used to counter flying types that are sure to crop up,so watch out,Bird Tamers!
Note: Kara has bred lower forms of each of her pokemon for trainers with less badges.
Personality; Kara is a rather backwards person - while most people would dream to have lots of gadgets,she actually shies away from technology,preferring simple gadgets and preferably no gadgets at all. This is probably why she prefers keeping pokemon out of their pokeballs rather than confining them in one. Kara is unusually playful for a 24 year old and often acts very much like a young teenager. However,she can and does draw a line on her child attitude when the situation demands it. Kara holds a lot of respect for most things and accepts that every action is done for a reason. She retains a natural and wild instinct and sense of Justice that she obtained from watching Demios,though - she knows what is right and what is wrong. One thing Kara is serious about is keeping healthy and will happily spend hours meditating and working out so she stays fit.
Apperance; The first thing you might notice is just how unnaturally tall Kara is - just over 6 foot tall,though probably likely nearing 6 and a half feet in height - but this is due to the fact both her parents were unusually tall as well. The other thing you may notice is her lightning blue hair which is actually her natural hair colour - her father,again. At least her eyes are a normal,almost innocent brown colour.
Now,onto her clothes - Kara wears a long sleeved top coloured like a lucario's pelt,though in the hotter months,this is usually replaced with a sleeveless version. She also wears white tracksuits with a blue band going down each leg. One strange fact about Kara - she NEVER wears shoes. She always goes around barefoot,not matter the weather,temperature or the season. On her hands,she has a pair of padded gloves that she only takes off when she goes to bed. These are used to protect her knuckles when she's working out at the gym.
History; Kara was the child of a human mother and a lucario morph father. She never knew her father - he had left Kara's mother when she was pregnant,stating clearly he didn't want anything to do with the child. Kara didn't know her mother for very long,either - she died when Kara was barely 3 and a half. An aunt - her mother's sister - and her partner took Kara in. Cristi - the aunt - always tried to be kind to Kara,but her partner was a total nightmare towards Kara whenever Cristi had to go out to work; Kara was beaten by him for little or no reason. In response,she degenerated into little more than a feral 'wild child' and became so wild that she had to sleep a live in a shed in their garden. Cristi's partner tried to give Kara up to an orphanage but no-one would take her. Cristi eventually decided that it was time to track Kara's father down. Overhearing this conversation while out in the garden,Kara decided to run away and go look for her father herself. This occurred when she was about 14 years old.
Kara spent the next 2 years looking for her father. During this time,she lived a semi-wild existence. She was adopted by a tribe of fighting types after a riolu found her injured and trapped in a tree. While in the tribe,she forgot most of the human speech she had learnt and became unusually fluent in Poketongue,the language normally reserved for pokemorphs and pokemon,not humans such as herself. After living with them for a year,Kara finally summoned up enough courage to go ask the tribe leader to get the tribe to help her look for her father.
------------
The nearly 16 year old wild girl staggered into the tribe leader's cave,on all fours at first,but gradually rising onto two feet. A smallish female riolu,Ryder,was perched on her companion's shoulder,snuggling into Kara's lightning blue hair. It didn't take much more time of walking before the tribe leader,a battle scarred Lucario named Demios,became visible in the darkness. Kara gave him a deep bow before proceeding with her question.
~Lord Demios!~ she addressed him directly.
~Kara Whitewing.~ the lucario acknowledged her.
~I've something to discuss with you,my lord.~ Kara nodded slightly.
~And what would that be,Little Whitewing?~
~I...I need your help,my lord~
The whole cave erupted with gasping and whispers of disbelief. No-one ever asked Demios personally for his help unless you were high ranking or his family. Since Kara was neither,everyone in the room was now staring at the pair,talking and waiting for Demios' next move. Stepping off his throne,Demios bode everyone silent before walking towards Kara. Even though he was tall for a lucario,Demios was still dwarfed by the sheer height of Kara.
~Help you?~ Demios whispered.
~Yes,my lord.~ Kara tried desperately not to stutter.
~Go on.~ Demios nodded.
~Before I came to the tribe,I was on a quest to find my father. The only descriptions I ever got were from elder Catchers who said he was part Catcher and part like you,my lord.~ Kara admitted.
~And you want me to get the whole tribe to go out there and help you look for your father?~ Demios' tone became dark.
~Yes....my lord. I do.~
~Do you have any idea how dangerous it is out there,Whitewing? There are Catchers everywhere!~ Demios spoke in a light tone of disbelief - the kind of tone that scared Kara.
~I know,my lord. But I would never ask you unless I was desperate. You see,my mother died when I was young,my aunt treated me cruelly; the only thing I have left is my father,if he is still alive. Please,my lord!~ Tears welled up in Kara's eyes.
Demios gave her a sympathetic look. ~Little Whitewing,stop your tears. I had no idea you had been through such cruelty at the hands of the Catchers. Now,everyone knows. And I'm sure everyone would like to help you. Right?~
The crowd of people in the cave erupted into a single,pure note of 'Yes!' before dying down just as quick. The tribe was going to find Kara's father.
------
Shortly after that,the search began. It took another year before they finally found Kara's father. Her father - Lucifer - was out capturing fighting type pokemon. He had just thrown a ball a hitmonlee,when Kara suddenly appeared and knocked the pokeball away. Lucifer was profoundly shocked by Kara's actions.
------
"Oi,girl! What do you think you are doing? Unless,this is your hitmonlee?" the lucario morph shouted at Kara,but of course,she couldn't understand his Catcher tongue anymore.
~Rejimal! Get up,and use Blaze Kick on that electabuzz,now!~ she ordered the hitmonlee.
The hitmonlee nodded and ran at Lucifer's electabuzz,kicking it with a fiery foot. Not only was it a critical hit,but it burned the electric pokemon as well.
Lucifer stared at Kara in shock,upon realising she had spoken in Poketongue. Quickly,he changed to Poketongue too.
~Girl! What do you think you are doing? ~ he asked. ~Is this your hitmonlee?~
Kara blinked at Lucifer,before answering. ~No! I'm not an evil Catcher like you!~ she screamed at her father,before throwing a fistful of Aura at his electabuzz.
Lucifer leapt in front of his pokemon,and summoned a shield of aura to protect him. After the aura ball hit the shield,he dissolved the shield,his hat falling off in the process. This revealed his lucario features.
Kara's jaw dropped. ~Fath....father?~ she stuttered.
There was no time for reunions as soon,the whole tribe surrounded them,poised to attack.
~Lord Demios,no! Not attack! This is my father!~ She stood in front of Lucifer,arms outstretched.
~He is?~ Demios asked.
~I am?~ her father looked at her.
Kara turned around. ~Yes,you are. I can sense it when you used Aura power!~ Kara nodded.
~She speaks the truth. Your auras are nearly identical.~ Demios confirmed.
Lucifer sighed. ~I told your mother to tell you not to look for me when you were older.~
~But....mother's dead,dad! She died when I was young. And aunt Cristi - dad,I had to get out of there!~ Kara pleaded.
At this point,Ryder leapt onto Kara's shoulder and spoke up. ~Kara's been lookin' for you for two years,you know that?~
~Two years?~ Lucifer staggered back. ~Is this true?~ he then asked Kara.
~Yes,father. It is. This tribe has looked after me much of that time.~ Kara confirmed.
-------
After that,Kara's father decided to take Kara in,teaching her everything from scratch since Kara had no education. Demios allowed her daughter,Ryder,to go with Kara and the pair moved to Fighting City with Kara's father. After her home tutoring was finished,Kara went on a pokemon adventure,where she managed to to win seven of the badges - but after losing to the eighth gym(in order) 3 times,she decided to take a break for her adventure to breed pokemon instead. When she heard the gym needed a new gym leader,she snapped up at the chance and has now been in the job for just over 2 years.
Other; She can speak in poketongue fluently - was pretty much her first language after all. She has difficulty with human,though. She does try her best,but when she gets excited or angry,her human speech loses fluency and she tends to switch to poketongue.
She shares a friendly rivalry with Rin Aito,the flying gym leader. She refers to her as Rin-chan.
Gym; A large room with a boxing arena in the middle. As soon as you step into the arena,you face four trainers in succession,with no healing time in between them.
Trainer 1: A Battlegirl with:
Machop
Tyrogue
Trainer 2: A Blackbelt with:
Machop
Hitmonchan
Trainer 3: Another blackbelt with:
Machoke
Hitmonlee
Trainer 4: Another Battlegirl with:
Machoke
Hitmontop
Then,a double battle with a Battlegirl and a Blackbelt(you get a rest before this one,so heal up!) They have the following:
Blackbelt - Battlegirl
Tyrogue - Machop
Hitmonlee - Hitmonchan
Machoke - Hitmontop
Tm Given: Brick Break
*is brick'd* Sorry. D: Otherwise it is perfect. <3
