Name: Carra Waysied (Way-sEEd)
Age: 18
Hair Color: Brown and stubbly
Eye Color: Brown and muddy
Other Description: Carra is of average height, but unfortunately a little chubby, and so looks proportionally shorter. She had to shave her head when she contracted lice recently, but it's growing back as brown stubble. Carra used to be very into the Punk look, however, that's dropped off now as she's grown older, and she tends to wear plain t-shirts and skirts -- although she's still got her stripey stockings.
Personality: Carra is right now at the end of her tether. She has always been a conformist, going with the flow, but now she doesn't really feel that there is a flow to follow since she graduated from school. As a result she tends to act rather listless, and doesn't seem to care what happens next. However, once she can get excited about something again she will perk right up.
History: The youngest Waysied grew up in Saffron City in a normal upper middle class family. She wasn't very interested in sports, played the oboe for a few years in band, quit, and entered high school with a punk clique to show her rebellion against the familial values. Of course, like most of the crowd that is happy to be labeled under pop culture terms, Carra was only too happy to conform to supposed non-conformity. She did manage to graduate with good grades, and an acceptance into Viridian University.
However, her parents -- always educational trend watchers -- were convinced that the best thing for a growing child's mind was a gap year where they were forced to do something with themselves. Carra acceded to their wishes, and applied for a deferment.
Deferment accheived, this still left the need for Carra to actually do something. Her mother suggested volunteering at the pokemon center, and her father suggested getting a job. Neither idea seemed really palatable to Carra (cleaning poisonous vomit off the floor, or serving people she didn't really like were the objections), and since she wasn't all that athletic a year hiking around and pokemon training was out.
But then her brother saw a review of "Mini Training Regions" in his "Pokemon Monthly" and read about Miteinjan. It was small, fairly well stocked with pokemon, but it didn't require too much running around. He showed the article to his Father, and the next thing Carra knew she was on board a cruiser heading for the small region.
Favorite Pokemon:
Carra never really had any. Of course, she did have the obligatory "punk" preferences in High School, but she hasn't ever had to interact with any but those that her "Training Nutcase" older brother brought home. Still, she guesses that she likes Mr. Mime, Lickitung, and Misdrevus (all pokemon made famous by having been owned by punk band members)
Pack:
7500 pyen
2 pokeballs
A yellow raincoat
A first aid kit in a neat blue box
An old grey sweatshirt
