Name:
Amanda Ulysses. She goes by Ulysses, though.
Age:
Seventeen.
Gender:
Female.
Trainer Type:
Trainer, through and through.
Hometown:
Cianwood.
Appearance:
Well, here’s the basics of it. Ulysses has long, blonde hair that almost reaches to her waist. She believes her hair is the only pretty thing about her. Her eyes are a dark-ish, dull blue color. Her skin is somewhat tan- you would expect it to be even more tan, given the amount of time that she spends outdoors, but for some reason her skin refuses to tan past a certain point. She has a medium build- not the skinniest, curviest gal around, but she does boast some very toned muscle. She is about five foot five inches tall- not to tall, not too small.
Now, since Ulysses is a pretty major tomboy, she is almost constantly covered in mud and dirt and whatnot, not to mention cuts and bruises. The only time she really cares about what she looks like is when she is preparing to participate in an important, formal battle, such as against gym leaders or in a trainer’s tournament. In the warm months, she always dresses in shorts and light-colored tanktops. In the winter months, she wears jeans, darker-colored tanktops, and her favorite dark-red hoodie that has a worn-out fairy-tail logo on the back. She always wears a pair of worn tennis shoes.
Personality:
Ulysses is a tomboy. Need I say more? I suppose there is more to this girl than just that... She is also extremely violent- physically, verbally, and most often, with her Pokemon. She will challenge just about anyone she ever meets. Not only because she’s violent, but because she loves the adrenaline that comes from a Pokemon battle, and she loves the rush that she gets when she wins. However, when she doesn’t win… well, its not a pretty sight. Ulysses has a competitive fire in her that never burns out.
In addition to all that, Ulysses does not know how to properly show affection. Most of the time, she doesn’t have even the slightest desire to show affection… However, she does make an exception for her darling Pokemon, who she loves very much. Unfortunately, even when she is interacting with her beloved Pokemon, she’s very poor at showing any sort of positive emotion... Or any emotion, really, other than emotions such as anger, frustration, and determination. Determination is probably the most common emotion that she ever feels or shows, and its determination that keeps her going and going all the time.
Ulysses isn’t all bad, though. If a person will actually put forth the time and effort it takes to get to know her, she could be a loyal and invaluable friend- although she’ll never be very good at expressing love and happiness. And, despite it all, Ulysses isn’t actually mean. She may come off as mean because of her determination and competitiveness, but she’s not.
History:
Ulysses’ history isn’t too exciting, really. She was the only child of two very successful Pokemon trainers. The two of them always pushed Ulysses to try her best. Apparently, she took that advice a little too literally. She transformed her parents’ caring advice into an all-consuming determination and competitiveness and desire to win. Beginning at the young age of about eight or nine, Ulysses was obsessed with being the best, not just trying her best.
However, Ulysses' drive to be the strongest Pokemon trainer is not simple because of her misinterpretation of her parents' advice. When she was seven years old, she witnessed a crime; she was walking home from school, minding her own business, when she came upon a Pokemon battle between two trainers. She stopped to watch, and the two of them were so into it that they didn't notice her. However, when the Pokemon battle ended, they didn't just shake hands an walk away. The loser tried to run, but the winner tackled her to the ground and knocked her out. What happened after that... Ulysses would prefer not to remember.
That is the main reason why Ulysses had to be the best at everything. If she ever lost, she’d throw a small fit, freak out a little, then go and work and train at whatever it was, and then keep trying until she overcame her obstacle. In her eighth year of school, she won the ‘kiddie-tournament’, using two of her father’s weaker, in-training Pokemon, a Magby and an Oddish. That was just the first of a serious of competitions and challenges. Ulysses passed them all with flying colors. She expected her parents to be proud, but she didn’t exactly get what she expected…
At the age of fourteen, Ulysses was more than ready to start her Pokemon journey. However, her parents were a little bit concerned- after all, they weren’t blind to their only child’s obsessions. They wanted to gentle their little girl a bit in hopes of turning her into… well, a little girl. They tried everything they could think of, but Ulysses thwarted all of their attempts- in fact, she was furious with them for trying to stop her. It took her years and years, but finally she has forced her parents into letting her take the Pokemon journey. The very night of their decision, Ulysses packed all the things she thought she would need, and then didn’t sleep a wink that night. She was much too excited to start her Pokemon journey.
Goals:
Sorry, but her goals are rather stereotypical.
Other Info:
Sorry it’s so crappy.
I really wanna roleplay here, but my muse is kaput.
How did you find us?:
