Name (Nicknames?): Genevieve Florence (Gene) Gender: Female Date of birth [Age]: August 12th [19]
Appearance: Genevieve is a Caucasian young woman of 19 years. She is 5'7 with a slim figure, which isn't particularly toned or fit, though she is rather flexible and agile.
Gene has shoulder length auburn hair, which she normally wears with the bulk up in a bun, with only two long slightly curled strands framing her face. Her bangs are also worn reasonably long, the tips just handing past her eyebrows and into her vividly bright blue eyes.
Gene is fairly attractive, all things considered, though she's the type who burns rather than tans, causing her to turn red with too much sun. She also has a big brown circular birthmark on her right shoulder, which she hates and often tries her best to hide.
She also has a very unusual sense of fashion. For one thing she loves red and black motley. Gene simply finds the style of a harlequin fascinating. So she is often found in a mismatch of gaudy colours, with either a bandana on her head, or a jesters cap.
History: Living in Fuchsia City, within the Kanto Region, everyone in town to pride in two things: The Safari Zone, and their Gym. For Genevieve, the Gym was always her favourite of the two, as it was there that her father worked.
Her dad spent much of his time as a Juggler, entertaining the people during festivals and events, though whenever a new trainer came into town, her father took up his other role, as one of Fuchsia City's Gym trainers.
Gene admired her father and his abilities. Everyone in town loved him, he was funny, and strong! People respected him and did what he wanted, and that was something Gene dreamed of as well.
She was never very good in school, spending most of her time gossiping and playing pranks, and just trying to entertain others. Before long she was removed from public school and homeschooled by her mother, in the hopes she'd actually learn something that way. What instead happened, was Genevieve began taking care of her dad's pokemon.
She'd been 'studying' one day, when she noticed her dad's pokemon wandering about the yard looking a little bored. There was a summer festival in a weeks time, and her father was spending all his time working on his performance, which meant his pokemon were left alone.
Feeling sorry for them, and not really wanting to keep studying, Gene did what she did best; goofed off. Though her mother wasn't pleased, she was glad to see her daughter was happy, and allowed Genevieve to continue her antics, thinking that perhaps her daughter was going to become a pokemon breeder or professor.
A few years passed, and all was well, but slowly Gene began to get restless. She didn't know what to do with her life. She'd always been so carefree, and living at home had been so comfortable, she'd stayed well after everyone else she knew had left to work in a bigger city, or undertake a pokemon journey.
Her father was the one who ultimately helped her, talking about how he'd learned a lot about himself on his own pokemon journey, and suggesting to her that perhaps she'd realize what she wanted to do with her life, if she had one of her own.
Taking her fathers words to heart, Gene set out on her journey. Not wanting to journey in Kanto (on the off chance she'd have to face her own father). So, in typical Genevieve fashion, she picked a ferry at random and boarded that, and before she knew it, found herself coming to the Cheyenne Region.
Interactions with Pokemon: Genevieve has spent her entire life around pokemon. Her father a Juggler, and for a while a renown trainer within the Fuchsia City Gym. All her life Gene listened to her father talk about pokemon, and his dream to one day become Fuchsia City Gym leader. Admiring her father, she often took care of /player with his pokemon, which primarily were Mr Mime's and Mime Jr's. As a result of this, Gene is quite passionate about pokemon, though her practical knowledge really isn't a lot at all.
Personality: - Curious
Genevieve is intensely curious, and loves to look around and understand how things work. While this is good as far as learning goes, it often causes her to poke her nose into business where it really doesn't belong.
- Easily Distracted
Despite her curiosity and desire to learn, Gene gets distracted very, very easily. If something interesting or flashing is happening nearby, or someone is saying something particularly dry, chances are Gene will find something more interesting to do within a few minutes. This often causes her to miss important details, or make her more curious, causing her to ask questions, she'll inevitably fail to hear the boring answer to, resulting in a vicious cycle of questions and distraction.
- Childish
Gene is very happy go lucky and likes to live life with a smile on her lips, and a joke at the tip of her tongue. She isn't the type who takes life seriously at all. As a result she often isn't too helpful in serious situations, instead trying to lighten the mood in the area, or worse, views everyone else's issues as a game.
- Selfish
Despite her kind nature towards others and pokemon, Gene is a spoiled little brat. Things go well when she's getting her way, but the instant someone denies her what she wants, she begins to pout and does her best to guilt the other person into giving in to her.
Goals in Cheyenne: Gene is pretty much just in Cheyenne to explore and have some fun. Beyond that though, she wants to follow in her dad's footsteps. He was a trainer, and with time discovered his passion for juggling. So she's curious to see if becoming a trainer will make her realize what she really loves in life too. Oh, and becoming a Pokemon Master or Ace Coordinator means she'll be famous...and people will do whatever she wants. ; )
