Hometown: Tiensee Town - South Godai

Personality: Will is a generally laid back guy. He lives in the now and doesn't worry much about the future. He loves seeing new places and meeting new people and making friends. Being from Tiensee town he has adapted to the general friendly demeanour that Tiensee residents are known for. When faced with tough situations his laid back attitude to life can get in the way causing him to get into trouble, this is something he is working on. It sometimes takes him a while to understand and joke and will start laughing about a joke he finally understood way after everyone else stopped laughing.
He has a sweet tooth and enjoys sours foods. Dislikes anything spicy or minty. He doesn't get along with people who are too serious or are just plain old mean. Will is bisexual, something his family has come to accept about him.

History: Will is a twin but his twin sister had complications at birth and sadly died hours after the two were born. He was born with the condition Heterochromia causing his eyes to be two different colors. Will grew up not knowing he was a twin because his parents and elder brother left it from him mainly because they didn't think he will understand. Will was always a happy child and when he learned to walk the first thing he did was try to escape the house. He wanted to see the world and meet new people. As he got older he started having dreams about a girl who looked a lot like him. At first he ignored them, thinking it was nothing, but the dreams started to feel more real.

As he neared his 10th birthday he stumbled upon his birth papers and found out he was a twin and his sister died at birth. He confronted his parents and they explained everything to him. How his sister died and how it was his sister he was seeing in his dreams. Will was annoyed that his parents had kept it from him but he didn't hate them for it and kind of understood why.

During this time he started to become more involved with Pokemon. Neither one of his family had every left to go on a journey. His brother attempted but he missed his home too much and came back 4 months after he left. Will had wanted to travel the world for as long as he could remember and knew he would miss home but also knew he had to go out there and see the world. So he enrolled in a trainer school to learn all about Pokemon and over 5 years he learned a lot.

During his time at school Will learned a lot about not just the Pokemon world but about himself. It started when he was 13 and found himself attracted to another boy in his class called Jacob. This confused him so much because it was all new. He attracted to girls before but never a boy. He was never one to hide his feelings so when he got home he told his parents.

They went on to explain what it was he was going through and also explained that it could just be a phase but they both would accept him for who he is and will love him no matter what. The next 2 years were confusing for Will. He befriended Jacob and the two became inseparable. Their bond strengthened but Will always looked at him as more than a friend. So will decided to come clean and tell Jacob the truth. It was on Will's 15th birthday that he finally voiced his feelings to Jacob and much to his surprise Jacob felt the same way. The two started dating and for a few months it went great but then Jacob announced he was moving to Johto after graduation because his dad had gotten a promotion.

Will was hurt but decided to made every day special up until graduation. When graduation came the two teens said their goodbyes and promised one day they will see each other again. Will never seen it as a forever goodbye, he was determined to meet the first boy he loved again.

After earning his trainer licence Will was allowed to choose his starter Pokemon out of a large selection. In the end he chose Piplup and nicknamed him Fisher.

Hey Matt! Sorry to keep you waiting so long! Let's get started quickly so we can get you into Godai ASAP ^^

I'll give you what I think needs fixing in a list form in order to make it easier for you to read and understand ^^

  • The condition which gives people two different coloured eyes is called Heterochromia, although I haven't found anything which makes it common in twins. It's perfectly fine for your character to have this, but you may just need to remove the stuff about it being common in twins.

  • His clothing is good too, but I need to ask, is that all he wears? Right now in Godai it's Winter, so in some parts he's sure to be freezing. Does he have a jacket or anything warmer he likes to carry with him?

  • His General Appearance just needs expanding a little. What you've got is good, but try to add more detail. What is his stance like? His posture? Does he always have a happy expression? What is his happy expression, exactly?

  • Don't forget to add 'South Godai' to his Hometown

  • His personality is great so far! Although, I do have to question the bit about Tiensee making him kind. Think of the big mixture of people you'll find in your own town. Other than that, I think it'd be beneficial to add more, like his likes and dislikes, any other traits he has. For example, does he get angry at anything? Does he fall in love too easily? Does he enjoy to be a bit of a kleptomaniac? Just think of every single thing that makes his whole personality and mindset different to everybody else's.

  • His History is pretty good too! I think it needs expanding a little, though. He's 16, so try to think of all of the important things which happened to him in that time. What was he like at school? What made him get more involved with Pokemon? Try to add in how his Personality came into play - for example, how did he learn of his likes and dislikes through his lifetime?

  • For some reason, the the Pokeball and Journal sprite don't seem to be showing. If it doesn't work, try copy image url/paste those parts ^^

  • Woo, another Piplup! It's more or less perfect! Don't forget to add the percentage that you used for the speed next to the 7 points (So it should read 7 (12%)). Also, we list the moves by the level they are learned, not the order, so Growl should be listed as 4. instead of 2.

    That's all I can see. Sorry if it's a lot, but I think you for your patience. Ask away on the Cbox or PM me if you need any help and we can walk you through it ^^

Nice, it looks a lot better!

Piplup's Health section seems to be blank, however. Take a look at what it says in the Pokedex for Piplup.

In the meantime, I'll give you approval 1/2 while we wait for that to be fixed ^^

Hey there SoulGain! Looks like it’s my turn buwhaha! This looks great so far, but I’m a picky fellow so I’ll be asking for just a few more changes -

First, in order to hold everyone to the same standard, I’d like you to please write in complete sentences. This meaning one word sentences should not be allowed.

Then, what does his ”Weight” mean? What is 11st? If this is in a percentile, then please put down a more specific weight that he has for someone who is 16 and has a Height of 5’10”. You can use Google to assist you in your findings.

For his ”Hair [...]”, please write “blonde” in a complete sentence such as: ‘He has blonde hair”.

For his ”Eyes” please describe the condition of having two different eye colours. I believe Riff has provided you with such, but please put it into your profile. Not only that but because you’ve described them to have light coloured pigmentation, please keep in mind that his eyes will be more sensitive to light as compared to those who have let’s say a dark brown pair of eyes.

For his ”General Appearance” please write in full sentences. And perhaps another sentence or two about people’s first impressions of him if they were to see him from a distance? Does he leave an impression by any chance? If so/not then why? Etc.

Let’s zoom into his ”Personality”. Although adorable, I feel you can expand much much oh so much more! You’ve definitely hit the minimum which is great, but again there’s just so much more we can add to make William a more wholesome person. Starting off with the first sentence and onwards, constantly ask yourself why and how. Why does Will find the need to be a generally laid back guy? Why does he live in the now and doesn’t worry too much? Is it because he finds being stressful a burden? Is it because he wants to take in all the senses the word has to offer? How does he feel on a psychological level to constantly hold up that personality trait? What does it mean to live in the now anyways? There’s so many variations of that. For example, for me, I try my best during emergency surgical procedures; to never hesitate when I have a shred of doubt. To others it means jumping off a plane and never taking no for an answer. So what about William? What does it mean to him to “live in the now”? Just because he was born in a place, doesn’t make him who he is. It’s his genetic disposition, personality, and upbringing that allows him to go through cognitive and emotional developmental growth to solidify what path he wants to shadow. So what exactly are these Tiensee residents known for? How does he feel about that type of view? What is a tough situation for him? What is an easy situation for him? Why does it take him a while to understand a joke? Is it because he takes it too literally? Or is it because he’s trying to find another meaning on a different level for said joke? Why does he have a sweet tooth for things? How does it make him feel - for what reason? For me I love sweet things because it reminds me of my childhood and it’s also because it was a reward for everytime I did something good thus it was conditioned in my body. What about William? What else can we know about him? How does he feel about himself? Has he ever questioned anything? Does he follow something - anything - blindly? Does he have any other weaknesses or strengths that can cause him to change his psychological views on life or himself? Why does he hate people who are too serious or mean? What emotions does he get from seeing those? What happens when he’s mad? How does he cope with it? How does he feel about Mankind? Pokemonkind? So on and so forth! Really get into the details and descriptions for your character.

The same applies to his ”History”. Really dish out those details and get into what or how William was feeling through these events and experiences that pass him. You say he has Heterochromia Iridis, but what is the significance of this and for what reason? Why does he have to have this specific condition and how did it affect him growing up? Did any of the children ever notice? If so did they ever call him out for it? Why or why not? How did he feel about having two different eyes when the norm is having the same eye colours? Did he ever question it? Were they good feelings or bad feelings? As a child, why did he want to see the world and new people? What emotions or psychological feelings stirred up in him for him to yearn for that? Was it the bright colours the world had to offer? The happy faces of others which caused an innate sense of comfort for him to reach out? How did he feel having experienced these dreams? Did he talk to his family about it? What was his relationship with his family and elder brother anyways? What else did they do to give him a good (or bad? I have no clue) childhood? How did he feel when he stumbled upon that hidden secret? How did it further shape him into what you explained in his ”Personality”? Why did he only “kind of understood” why? What was the other part that he didn’t understand? Why? For what reason? What further emotions ran through him? So many whys! This applies for everything down further as well since this response is raking up. Because his ”Personality” is lacking, it’s only natural for his ”History” to be as well but that’s okay! What other experiences, obstacles, and events allowed him to solidify his train of thoughts and his personality to this very day? Etc.

If you’re stuck or not sure, please look at ”Accepted Characters”. Everything else looks great. You know the drill once anything has been changed. Good luck! ♥
