Weather
The first great snowfall of a few days prior has coated the lands in a shining white that many would say is beauty embodied. The trees glimmer and chime with ice on their branches, and the evergreens are more vibrant and lively looking than at any other time in the year. The skies are cloudless, and with nothing to insulate the earth, temperatures drop low enough to be dangerous for long amounts of exposure at night.

The ice that has taken over the water has finally begun to thin; once it has melted entirely, normal naval activity can resume, as most ships are incapable of traversing such dangerous obstacles as enormous hull-piercing shards of ice. Most ships...

Name: Nicolas Dering
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Country: Caledonia
Class: Vigilante
Starting Town: Belfhaste
Chosen Weapon: Bladed Wooden Staff
Appearance: Nicolas has a rather sinewy build, thin and tall; he walks in a somewhat unsteady manner and tends to appear as if he’ll be toppled over by the wind at any moment. His hair is grey and messy, hanging over his forehead but cut right before his eyes—deep blue eyes that stare with a fierce intensity, like an animal inspecting its prey. He tends to wear black clothing, usually tight and made of leather. If it’s not black, it’s probably dark grey or a deep red. He wears a leather jacket at all times (pockets inside).
Personality: Nicolas is, well, eccentric. And probably insane, though he can’t exactly be diagnosed. He enjoys a spot of blood, a fight’s always nice, anything that might cause panic.
If you had to rely on someone, Nicolas would probably not be the person you’d hope for. He would love nothing more than to take everything you have and then turn his back on you, simply for the laughs.
He may find the weirdest things funny—something no one else would laugh at—and just giggle to himself randomly. In contrast, he tends to misunderstand, or not understand at all, jokes that most people think are funny. At which point he might react violently—he doesn’t like to appear stupid.
Speaking of which, Nicolas has a fierce dominance complex. He must remain on top, and if he isn’t on top, whoever is will be killed. He considers it a huge offense to have anyone ‘above’ him, and the only way to regain his position as top dog is violence.
Though all of this might make him appear stupid or dim, he is actually quite bright. When he stops to think he can come up with the most ingenious plots. He might not actually do them and go for blunt-violence instead, but the fact that he can come up with them in the first place is only because he is bright.
Biography: Nicolas was born to one of the castle’s many knights ‘in shining armour’. His father didn’t see him much, but he had a whole infirmary of mothers to watch over him—and see him torturing young Pokémon, burning down furniture, hitting other children, and overall misbehaving.
Because he was a knight’s son, the mother’s didn’t know how to punish him. He couldn’t be ‘kicked out’, but something must be done. So they decided to put his aggression to good use and train him for combat.
They entered him into physical combat, hoping that might cure him of his irrational anger, but when that didn’t work (and indeed just made his violence worse) they enrolled him in a weapons class, teaching him how to use weapons of all sorts. He learned with relish, but the teachers soon tired of his constant violence and soon kicked him out of the classes, leaving the mothers desperate.
Finally they looked to Pokémon—one of the targets of his aggression. But perhaps they could calm him, if he were to spend time with one that were capable of defending itself. So they set up an hour where he could socialize with one of the castle’s guards, a fierce Feraligatr.
No one knew exactly what happened, but each time the two met, Nicolas would come back scratched and bruised, while the Feraligatr was left unharmed. People spread rumours of course—they always do—but no one really knew what was going on. They did know that Nicolas insisted very violently that he keep going, and no one dare disagree.
One time he came back especially bloody, a huge cut running across his chest and many more scratches covering the rest of his body—but the Feraligatr had a black eye. After this, the Pokémon refused to see the boy again, but Nicolas was apparently satisfied and didn’t argue.
At this point the mothers had given up, and decided it would be best to send him on his way. There was no hope of him becoming a knight—they knew that long ago—but he could not work for the castle at all. He was too dangerous. So they sent him off, leaving him with the remnants of his father’s belongings and some rushed goodbyes.
RP Sample: Nicolas grinned widely as the woman handed him a cotton bag filled with items. He stared at her for a moment, contemplating what was going through her mind, before reaching out and grabbing the bag swiftly. He slung it over his back and continued staring at the woman, grinning all the while. That’s right, lady. Feel uncomfortable.
The woman coughed and looked away from him. “Well, that’s all your dad’s stuff.” He knew she was lying. His dad was a knight—he probably had tons of gold. Didn’t matter though, he didn’t care, he could get his own stuff. “What… Where are you gonna go?” She was clearly uncomfortable, waiting for him to leave.
“Oh, around, you know. See the area.” He let out a laugh. He wished he could stay longer just to bother her, but he really did have to get going; no use staying here anymore. “Well then, see you later.” He twirled around, practically dancing, and left, leaving the woman to sigh with relief.

Are you sure you don't want him to be an outlaw? haha He'll be an interesting Vigilante...
Regardless, I reward ye 450 in the way of Gold Pieces and your choice of one of these three pokemon:
Mankey
Spinda
Corphish
Choose one, give it a gender, a nickname if you like, and then choose two egg moves you'd like it to have. Alexiel or I will do the rest!

Yep, pretty sure I'm going Vigilante. The ability to have people hanging on him, and to choose who he wants to work for and when, plus the complete and total freedom just fits him. He'll definitely be interesting to play though, haha.
As for the starter, I'mma hafta go with Spinda, male, named Yaoguai and with Wish and Rock Slide as egg moves.
