Name: Faith West
Gender: Lady
Birthday: March 20
Age: 17
Appearance: Her appearance differs slightly from a typical 17 year old in her hometown. Her facial structure is that of a diamond which still has baby fat and makes her look more childish and young. She's tall and thin, she stands at 5'9" and weighs 120 lbs. Her skin is pale, almost white, and has hair that is a dark chocolate brown that contrasts it. She has dark green eyes that sparkle when she's happy. She often, if not always, has her dark hair tied in a ponytail with a red ribbon her father gave her as a child. Her favorite outfit to wear is a plain purple striped tank top and shorts with a dark long sleeved shirt and gray leggings. Her hands are rough from living on the farm so she covers them with black and white striped gloves. She carries around with her a brown, well worn bag that was given to her by her grandmother who passed away shortly after Faith had turned 11.
Personality: Faith is a kind and outgoing person. She loves to talk if anyone will listen to her. She loves plants and plant Pokémon. The only type of Pokémon that scares her is Ghost types. She's generally happy but if she's angry or sad, she'll probably lock herself in a corner and curse at everyone until she cools off because she doesn't want anyone to worry about her. She's easily distracted and sometimes hard to talk to. She's very apologetic, maybe a little bit too apologetic. If she is with someone that she does not like, she will be cold and rude. In other words, she's somewhat bi-polar. She enjoys being active and hates standing in one spot for too long. She has a fighting spirit and will keep getting back up and striking back until the fight is over. When she's faced with a challenge, she will tackle it head first. Faith is also extremely loyal and will stick with her teammate or friend until the very end.
Her Background: Faith was born into a poor family on the farm where she helped take care of the Pokémon they raised with her siblings. She was the eldest child in the family and watched over the other children when her parents were busy. She was very close to her Grandparents, especially her Grandmother. Her grandparents lived close by the farm and had a small garden with lots of plants and Pokémon. One night, the barn on the farm holding the hay to feed the Miltanks they raised caught fire which spread to the house the family lived in close by. Faith lost her mother to the fire and swore that day that she would help anyone in need no matter what. Faith stayed with her Grandmother often to help take care of her in her old age. She played with plant Pokémon in her garden almost every day and ended up becoming quite fond of them. By age 11, her Grandmother was starting to show signs of weakness and gave Faith the old bag that she uses today. Shortly after, she died peacefully in her sleep. Eventually all the Pokémon she knew left the old garden and she moved back with her father and continued her dull life on the farm. When she was working with the Miltanks, a few teenagers were walking by and were talking about a great place to start an adventure called "Cheyenne." She was instantly hooked and started to research it.
When she finally became old enough to leave on her own, none of her siblings really cared and her father told her not to get mauled by Pokémon because it would be bad for their insurance.
