Character Name: Yuuna Sugasawa Blurb: Energetic young woman with a photographic memory and a strong belief in personal freedom
AU Info: Yuuna grew up the daughter of a blacksmith, and thanks to her gift managed to get herself placed into advanced school programs. During her early teens she took up martial arts as a form of exercise. She completed medical training, but never joined the Medics officially because of the restrictive lifestyle, started to study history, and then realized that wasn't for her either. She grew restless, and eventually decided to become a Pokemon trainer.
Since joining the game proper, Yuuna has joined the Rangers and excelled. She's participated in numerous exploratory missions, photographed and fought Heatran and documented the Citadel incident for newspapers, and somehow managed to infuriate an entire tribe of Croagunk (Blame Haruka). She's the subject of regular attacks by said frogs, as well as hired out goons whenever she's anywhere near the swamp. She's also a noteworthy swordsman and martial artist, often teaching at her old master's school despite being a completely mundane human. She sometimes supplements her income by photographing Pokemon in the wild.
Pre-Existing CR: Advanced Placement students, Rangers, martial arts students/colleagues, newspaper sorts, Seekers, researchers and medical students.
Looking for: I'd like for her to get some more varied CR. Right now a lot of her oldest friends have dropped, and I'm really open to anything. Ideally? Some sort of negative CR, a rival perhaps, even if it's one sided? People to get caught up in the frog stuff, though that's a thread I'll probably resolve soon?
Potential Connections: Yuuna frequents Ranger HQ, Yashio's Dojo, Fei's Dojo, the wilderness, the Industrial District (to see her dad), and probably pokes her head into the Seeker's place from time to time because of Merrill. Teeters wouldn't be uncommon, and sometimes Versus as well. She's not well known there, but some of her Pokemon enjoy the competition and may be recognizable.
Other Info: Not that I can think of!

Character Name: Yukiko Amagi Blurb: Wealthy, beautiful, intelligent daughter of the Amagi family and Heir Apparent to the Amagi Health Spa
AU Info: In this AU, Yukiko is a Fire/Grass type Enlightened who grew up being pushed towards running the family business at the Amagi Health Spa. When she Awakened, she took time to try and separate herself from the business so as not to squander her gifts. She has a tenuous relationship with her family at present, as she comes in to help out only one or two days a week. They don't need it, they just expect her to give over and work in the traditional way.
Since joining the game she has gone on a few adventures, but mostly stayed pretty close to Union. The farthest she's traveled has been the islands to the south and even that wasn't alone. The most recent event put her into a terrible situation where she had a bunch of Grass types. This is going to bother her and push her to train even harder than she already does.
Pre-Existing CR: Spa-goers, friends of Chie, former schoolmates (she graduated recently), people who've attempted to ask her out?
Looking for: Yukiko is my weak link here. I don't have much CR for her outside of her castmates and I'd really love to change that. Positive, negative? Hardass military types to look down their nose at her, old people who think she's a sweet girl who's a little misguided? Teen rebels who think she's a goody two shoes? Gardeners? People allergic to sunlight and rainbows? No, really, she can project sunlight.
Potential Connections: The Amagi Spa, various cafes, the Verdant Forest, parks and such where she's surrounded by grass types?
Other Info: Not really other than Yukiko will occasionally glow, and the end of her hair sometimes bloom.

Character Name: Rei Hino Blurb: Serious priestess who manages a shrine dedicated to an unknown Fire God, also reincarnated soldier from the time of the Savior
AU Info: Rei is very responsible and takes her duties as a religious figure seriously. Rei is a Fire/Psychic type who resides in Ninetales Vale at Hikawa Shrine. She's a famously skilled fortune teller, and her predictions are almost always 100% accurate. Her family, the Hinos, are among Union's wealthiest and most influential, with her father sitting on the Counsil. Rei, however, hates her father for abandoning her mother when she was sick and dying and leaving her to live with her grandfather. She and her grandfather both are experienced at exorcisms, and make extra money for the shrine by taking care of ghosts And blackmailing her dad in exchange for not making a spectacle of herself.
In game, she's bonded with her castmates over being reincarnated heroines, done quite a lot of training, joined the Kurain School of Channeling, and worked to continue positive relations with the gods and the Enhanced. She's not a pacifist, but she hates fighting things that don't deserve it, enough so that she stared down Entei in the past. She also has a mischievous Treecko that's fond of stealing fruits from people (perferably as they're about to bite into them), and an overly mothering Kangaskhan that Ninetales Vale residents may be familiar with. Juno roams the neighborhood whenever Rei is late for dinner, looking for her lost "baby."
Pre-Existing CR: Nobles of course, Ninetales Vale residents, religious characters, people interested in fortune telling, and that's about it.
Looking for: Rei has a bumbling, overly enthusiastic rival in Sanae already, but a serious one would be nice. I'd also love for her to develop more friends that are more serious, because often she feels that Makoto and Ami are the only people around her that aren't complete dunderheads. People needing guidance or fortune telling would be cool! Also, people less refined than her. She needs more scruffy troublemakers in her life! Fellow archers too!
Potential Connections: Hikawa Shrine, Ninetales Vale, The Kurain School, the Medical Center (to see Ami), a cafe or two in the business district, as well as the mountains and volcano.
Other Info: Rei is hot. Literally. Her Enlightenment has her body temperature much higher than normal, naturally. When she's angry, her eyes gleam, and a ruby-red mark appears on her forehead. She very, very often is accompanied by a Gengar that stays in her shadow to keep things cooler around her.

Character Name: Lucca Ashtear Blurb: Mad Inventor with a Robot BFF, accidentally invents time travel...in an era where there are no cars.
AU Info: Lucca is a Calderan, and a veteran of the conflict with Gigas. Her canon story about her mom being hurt and her turning to science stands, but during the war for the sake of Caldera she turned her genius into inventing weapons. She's relatively well known, and is kind of remorseful about the fact that her inventions killed people and Pokemon so she's come to Union to get away. And to learn about new stuff. Like...y'know...the Old City.
Ability wise? She's a Steel type now (gaining Fire later), with no offensive capabilities except her gun for now.
Lucca is currently working on a project with Gil as well. To make Rotom-Cycles. Also she met Articuno and has his feather preserved in a Mr. Freeze style capsule.
Pre-Existing CR: Calderans, Members of the Iron Legion, Users of Lucca's experimental weapons, Friends of Taban Ashtear (Her pop), Engineers. Looking for: Lucca could use more friends, period. She's oddly social and a little awkward, but she's also pretty peppy. People to admire her gadgets, people to FREAK OUT that she's attaching weapons and armor onto a Pokemon? Potential Connections: Lucca frequents the Industrial District, the Old City, and the Business District for sure. She's also probably hanging around various places that have junk for sale, and she eats like a starving Snorlax so restaurants are a thing!
Other Info: Lucca does, in fact, always wear stupid bike shorts.
