Full Name: Ryan Joshua Mitchell
Face claim: Adam Lambert
Gender: male
Sexuality: panromantic asexual
Age: 24 (August 9)
Appearance: Ryan's appearance and personality clash. His entire outfit always is extremely loud and in your face -- his flamboyancy flows through the makeup he puts on his eyes, which is normally a dark shade to bring out the argent color in his irises. His hair is jet black, contrasting with the pale tint on his skin. A few strands are dyed a bright blue on the right side of his hair, and it is normally swept back with the rest. He spikes it in the back and lets the longer strands hang in his eyes as bangs. His smile, though extremely rare, is wide and very contagious if you're ever lucky enough to see it.
His figure is efeminite, to say the least. Curves that probably shouldn't be there are accentuated through the skin-tight shirts and jeans he wears. Normally, his jeans are accentuated with studded belts or chains of some sort, but if he feels that he needs to "dress up" for a certain occassion, he will by wearing a simple tuxedo. He'll sometimes wear a powder blue dress shirt underneath, but normally it would be white in color. He adores wearing necklaces, and they commonly rest in great multiples around his neck. He has a small tattoo on his hip of a snake eating itself, creating a circle.
Background: • birth. when ryan was born, his father was already gone -- with no male support, arella had to raise the tiny child alone. her mental stability was already shaky, and it seems that postpartum depression was getting to her head. almost immediately, she began to neglect him in small ways -- not tending to him when he was crying, waiting until she couldn't take the smell before changing him, et cetera.
• younger. years as a toddler, his mother grew worse. she began to insult him whenever he tried to speak, which began the pattern of his stammer. insults led to spankings for any possible thing ryan did wrong, which led to his hesitation and fearfulness around others. she taunted and teased him some days, but other days, she was like any normal mother, wanting her small son to be happy. ryan couldn't keep up with these fast changes, but he found solace within the grace of Pokémon. he coddled the family pet, a meowth, constantly. that was when he decided that as soon as he was old enough, he'd go on his Pokémon journey like everyone else.
• incident. that dream was postponed when his mother finally snapped. after ryan had caused the final straw by doing something wrong, she forced her houndoom to use a flamethrower attack. this burned his back and a bit of his shoulders severely, causing him to be sent to the hospital. ever since then, ryan faints at the sight of a fire, a fire pokemon, or a houndoom. he was kept in the hospital before finally being taken out of the home, moving into child services when he was fifteen. a kind couple took him in, and they began to show him the very basics of Pokémon training.
Personality: ▪ kind. if there is ever someone who is in need of a hand, ryan will never hesitate to help. despite his shy and introverted personality, ryan can't resist the opportunity to please other people, and the best way to do so is by helping them. ry genuinely cares for others, despite the fact that it may look like he's too busy being afraid of them. although quiet, he loves making new friends -- he's a shoulder to cry on, and his strong empathy makes it so that he truly feels for whoever needs his assistance.
• nervous. being a boy from a strange home life, ryan is constantly cautious with anyone he meets. he doesn't trust people easily, but his optimistic point of view helps him to at least seem approachable. he has a terrible stammer and is afraid of most everything.
• gentle. his quiet voice and soothing touches make ryan the perfect example of gentleness. never would he want to harm another creature, even a fire Pokémon. he treats others the way he'd want to be treated himself -- with sensitivity and kindness. never will he intentionally hurt someone, and because of his soothing aura, people tend to come to him when they're feeling down.
• shy. his nervousness makes ryan a very shy creature -- he rarely speaks unless spoken to. he blushes extremely easily and tends to not take compliments too well, having never really been given any before he entered the school.
• hesitant. this shows mostly when ryan battles -- too afraid to hurt another Pokémon or his own, ryan would rather use dodge-and-weave skills than straight on attacks. he doesn't like to battle too often, but he realizes that he needs to in order to get ahead and graduate the academy. his hesitance in his abilities makes it hard for newly obtained Pokémon to trust him, but his gentle and kind treatments allow them to slowly warm up to him.
