Physical Description
Lysander is what some may describe as attractive, and to some degree he knows it. He has the dark red hair of his family which he tends to leave in it's naturally tousled style. His eyes he inherited from his father, a strikingly golden colour that seems to flare yellow when enraged.
The Elder Seras sibling is tall and athletically built with well defined muscles and a model like structure. He works hard to maintain his physique as this is often the most defining thing about the young man.
He tends towards reds and browns but will occasionally wear brighter colours such as yellow and orange depending on how the mood strikes him. Lysander wears a black eyepatch over his left eye, to hide the wound he received on his travels in Sinnoh, along with a bandana-like headband.
Background
c h i l d h o o d
Lysander was born just over a year before Xerian to their parents who had set up residence in Hearthome City just six years previous. This town was the perfect place for their mother to follow her passion for co-ordinating and enabled their father to drop by on his travels during the Sinnoh Gym Challenge.
He was always a charming child and was fiercely protective of his younger sibling as they grew up. But when he hit fifteen, he decided it was time for him to follow their father's footsteps and become a Trainer like he had always his son to be.
t r a v e l s
He was a natural trainer, and was able to effectively raise his pokémon to their best. Along his travels, he met a young man named Rian and the two became fast friends.
However, the journey gradually became less about completing the Gym Challenge and more about proving themselves as the strongest fighters in the world. Over time, the two sunk into a routine of battling Trainers with their fists, not pokémon and earned themselves a reputation for being fearsome duelers. Neither minded. It was still a reputation.
During one particular fight, their opponent's turned out to be dirty fighters and pulled a knife on the young pair. Slashing out at Rian, Lysander leapt before his best friend and took the blow to his right eye. The damage caused him to go permanently blind in that eye and left a three inch scar from above his eyebrow to below his eye.
d e f e a t
The two boys immersed themselves back into pokémon training, determined to put that incident behind them. They would still partake in the odd duel, but their passion for battling with their partners had reignited and the duo soon changed their reputation from thugs, to Trainers.
However, this was short lived. Whilst a more than competent trainer, there was one person Lysander had to defeat to prove himself. He could beat all the Gym Leaders in the world but it wouldn't make a difference. No. He had to defeat his father.
And so father and son met and in a battle that took a lot out of both of them, the father emerged victorious over his son. The defeat crushed Lysander and he handed his pokémon over to his father, renouncing his chosen path as a trainer.
l e a v i n g
Lysander returned home, hoping to find his sister. She had always been the light to his dark, the ice to his fire, his opposite. Yet she had always been the only one who could lift him out of his slumps.
She was gone. Upon hearing from her mother that Xerian had left for Cheyenne to follow her dreams, Lysander swiftly followed.
Secretly, he had always admired his mother and the way she used pokémon in contests. Whilst his passion for Gym battles might have died, the desire to be a co-ordinator had not...
So he begins his new journey in Cheyenne.
Personality
Ly is just as playful and even more charming than his younger sibling. With a radiant smile and twinkle in his eye (literally just the one), he has won the heart of many. He can best be described as a rogue in that he likes to play around and loves the thrill of the chase before finally giving in and succumbing to his feelings.
He may seem laid back at times, but his typical cocky attitude never truly vanishes. He has a quick wit and can find humour in just about everything, often speaking before really thinking it through. Confident, despite his defeat to his father, he believes in his pokémon and trains himself just as hard as he trains them.
Lysander is also incredibly passionate about just about everything he does and strives to get the best from any thing. Not so soft as his sister, he will tell it straight rather than beat around the metaphorical bush just to prevent hurting someone's feelings; and he doesn't care about the consequences. Better to be honest, right?
Distinctive Markings Three inch scar over his right eye which is typically hidden by his eyepatch. The eye itself is a silvery colour as opposed to his normal eye colour of gold.
