Demographic Information
Age: 13
Birthday: April 5th 2007
Gender: Female (She/Her)
Orientation: Unknown
Faction: Freelancer
Class: Explorer
Rank: 2
Occupation: Wandering Wildchild
Hometown: Ageos Wilderness
Current Residence: Traveling
Appearance Information
Height: 4'4''/132cm
Build: Androgynous and lithe, but overall fit
Hair Color: Black
Eye Color: Bright Red
General Appearance:
Ettie is a rather small but athletic girl; standing at 4'4'', with a build that is androgynous and lithe, but otherwise fit - making her look just as much like a young boy as she does a young girl. Her body has little fat to it, and she has the muscles for running and climbing around. Her skin is tanned from plenty of outdoors activity, with a heavy scattering of freckles on her nose, cheeks, and shoulders. She also has big round red eyes, and long messy black hair that is typically kept tied up in a ponytail. She, additionally, has faint but tiny scars here and there - seemingly from injuries that she just lacked the proper means to treat in the past - as well as bite scars on her neck and forearms, that she keeps hidden under a layer of bandages.
As far as clothes go, Ettie tends to wear whatever she can get her hands on while still being able to move around - favoring convenience and mobility over appearances - being not very picky, and contributing to her overall androgynous appearance. Regardless of what she wears however, a couple of consistent articles include a pair of goggles, and an old leather jacket; both of which she is rarely ever seen without.
Aura:
Ettie's aura is a pale - almost white - mix of yellows, oranges, and pinks that mix into an almost salmonish-orange color. It glows brightly as it ripples over Ettie's skin, almost looking like a layer of soft fur, with protrusions that resemble a pair of wolf-like ears and a swishing tail; both of which seem to move according to her actions and mood. When happy or excited, the rippling increases, her 'ears' perk, and her 'tail' even begins to wag; though when upset, or even angry, her 'fur' begins to bristle, her 'tail' becomes stiff, and her 'ears' fold back.
Personality Information
Personality:
Ettie is one for bombastic first impressions, when it comes to meeting new people. She is a peppy, cheery, and innocent young girl who is always raring to make a new friend - even if she tends to come across as being a bit clueless, naive, and childish at times. She is always full of boundless energy - no matter the situation - and is always raring to make a new friend with anyone she meets, being an utter social butterfly.
On top of this, though, Ettie sometimes is seen displaying strange habits and tendencies; stemming from having grown up among a pack of canid pokemon. She craves a 'pack' of some form - a group of friends and family that she can call her own - and can quickly grow depressed and despondent when isolated or lonely. In addition to this, she has a habit of making canine-like vocalizations, such as growls, barks, and howling; especially when interacting with other canid pokemon.
Even with her quirks and childishness though, Ettie can prove to be a crafty and loyal companion. She has grown up learning to steal and scavenge for survival; and it's a habit that's been difficult for her to break, the young girl sometimes feeling tempted to steal shiny objects that catch her eye, or otherwise swipe a loaf of bread or a couple fruits when she is feeling hungry. She, additionally, is prone to using these skills of hers to provide for other friends - even if they are the more law abiding sort!
However, despite this, Ettie is a good-hearted child who means well. She refuses to steal from those who appear to be down on their luck; preferring to only steal from those who are more on the richer end of the scale, or those who slight her or someone close to her, if she can help it. She, additionally, will never steal from a friend - being deathly loyal to those she considers close, and willing to do just about anything for them. If a friend is upset or hurt, Ettie will do anything in her power to help them - wanting nothing more than for her 'pack' to be happy and healthy.
As a result, though Ettie may be childish, strange, and a bit of a sneaky thief... She can also prove to be a loyal friend for life, for those who are willing to put up with her quirks.
History: Ettie never did know her parents. As far back as she could recall, she was an orphan; raised in the wilderness of Ageos by a nomadic pack of wild canid pokemon, primarily Lycanroc. For the majority of her youth, she'd live alongside these pokemon as if she were just another one of their pups; relying on the guidance of her adoptive family to learn everything she had to to survive. As a result, she'd learn a variety of skills - ranging from scavenging and gathering meals from the wild, to even (on an occasion) sneaking into human towns to steal food from them.
Despite not knowing her biological family or having a true home though, she was never all that sad; and she wouldn't even understand, if someone else found it to be sad. She was perfectly happy with the pack she called her family - traveling through the wilderness alongside them, howling to the moon together, and even curling up against her adoptive mother's fur alongside her siblings, without a care in the world.
As Ettie grew older though, and as she had the occasional brushes with other humans like herself, she would become curious of many things - the more civilized world that she had been gradually learning of, what it meant for her to be a human raised by pokemon, and of what other parts of the region they had yet to wander. Thus, shortly after turning 13, the free-spirited young pup would make the decision to part from the pack she loved so; her adoptive sister Anne at her side, as they'd set off to form a pack of their own, and see the world beyond.
Goals:
Ettie, being a free spirit, doesn't have any particular major long-term goals. However, she...
- Wants to grow her pack by taking in new canid pokemon,
- Wants to see the world and learn more about more 'civilized human things',
- And make as many new friends as she can!

Growing up in the wilderness, amongst wild canid pokemon who treated her as one of their own, has shaped Ettie greatly; she is touched by the wild in a way that most other humans would not understand, down to her very aura. She has a natural affinity for communicating with other canid pokemon, as well as a budding potential in aura - which when paired with her wild nature, is sure to lead to a child who is sometimes more beast than human.
Pack Whisperer (Reflavored Pokemon Communication) (Cost: 2)
Whilst an Adept, Ettie is able to communicate with and decently understand canid pokemon verbally, as if she was a pokemon as well. She is also able to understand any individual pokemon that she personally knows or owns - though she is unable to understand non-canid pokemon who are strangers to her, until she has a chance to get to know them.
Bestial Senses (Reflavored Second Sense + Residual Tracking) (Cost: 2 + 2)
As Ettie begins to dabble in Aura, her senses have grown in strength - offering her wolflike senses, particularly in keen hearing and smelling. She is able to perceive Aura with some focus; though her main talent is in being able to hear and discern sounds more easily than the average human, and discern scents - allowing her to track pokemon or humans by scent about as well as any Adept can through other means.
