[X] My Assistant

[rt117]

Name: Tikal Faylen

Age: 16

Hometown: Fidona

Appearance: Tikal is rather short for her age, always wearing a pair of jeans tattered at the end of the legs, and an orange shirt under a red vest. Her hair is short and messy, bands sometimes hiding her light brown eyes. Her skin is slightly tanned from always being out of the house and in the sun, and because she lives outside of Fidona, she weighs little as she only ate what she could collect or catch.

Personality: Tikal is generally a shy person as she didn't grow up around anyone else other than her parents, only being truly open towards her Pokemon. She always wanted to have friends she could have full conversations with, but by living outside the city she never really met anyone. Tikal is also afraid of them disappearing on her like her father did. It takes her awhile to open up to others, but after doing so she's really a cheerful happy-go-lucky person. She hates to get angry, though will show it if she sees mistreatment of other Pokemon. As battle would harm her friends (being her pokemon), she tries to avoid it at all costs if shes sees her Pokemon hurt.
Tikal is obsessed with Dragons, hearing of their legendary power. She wishes to befriend as many types as possible, to follow in her father's footsteps.
Tikal is also an experienced forager, and because she isn't fond of the chemical items (potions, full heals and anything man-made on the exception of Poke balls as they are an only option for catching Pokemon), she tries not to use them, and instead prefers berries as they are healthier and more natural. However, if she has no choice she will use man-made items

Biography: Tikal spent most of her life living just outside of Fidona, preferring the untame wild. Her father had been a professor, who specialized more with Dragon-type Pokemon. As a result she had gained interest, especially when her father gave her a Charmander, her first Pokemon. However when she was ten, her father disappeared while on one of his study trips, and instead of beginning her journey stayed at home to help her mother around the home. When she was twelve after gathering berries she came across an injured Nidoran, which had warded off an attacking Spearow with its poison spikes. She took it home and helped it return to health, gaining another friend. Her third Pokemon (Totodile) was obtained after a fishing trip went wrong. The Pokemon had attempted to eat the fish she had caught while it was still on the hook. After nearly losing her hand, she managed to free the Pokemon, only to find it following her home. She kept him as well, though the pokemon still has a wild side, which she now realizes after almost losing her hand several times.
Finally at age sixteen, her mother wanted her to go out and do something with her life (and hopefully find her father), so after staying at home for the longest time, she set off to go have an adventure.

What is the biscuit's name? The answer is... Bertha

Other Notes: Tikal is bad with names, a reason her Pokemon don't have nicknames. If with people, she won't call them by their name, as she tends to forget their name.

Denied. The biscuit's name is outlined in the rules, please find it.

Your extra notes can be used in the personality section. I would like to see a bit more about her interactions with others there as well.

History is a bit small, but if she hasn't done much at 16, what can you do?

Consider these things, fix the blatantly broken, and we'll look at it again.
