Name: Elphaba "Elphie" Thropp
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Trainer Type: Newbie
Hometown: Blackthorn City
Appearance: Elphie is one of those people that would be in the so-called head-turner types, beautiful to put it in one word. She has long, flowing blonde hair that is usually tied in pigtails which is complimented by those big, expressive honey-brown eyes that would convey multiple facets of her personality through various expressions from bored to ecstatic or annoyed to ‘I’ll-put-the-fear-of-God-in-you’ mode.
Her skin tone is kind of pale since she seldom comes out of her place. If she does come out, she wears clothing that usually covers her whole body from jeans or leggings to sweat shirts or long-sleeved blouses. But this doesn’t mean that she doesn’t wear shorts or tank-tops. During hot or humid days, she wears a trademark black tank-top that is complimented by a pair of white short-shorts tight enough to show her slim figure. Elphie also loves to wear flip-flops especially the white or yellow ones.
Personality: There are a lot of ways to determine Elphie’s personality; a lot of them actually contradict each other. But there are four traits that stand out the most. The ones that make Elphie “Elphie” or what most of the people that know her call her “The *****”.
She’s an introvert
Elphie is the older of two siblings. She was very spoiled when she was little to the point that she didn’t want anyone playing with her. This conditioned her to develop into an introvert. She’s not shaky or scared to socialize with other people, it’s just she doesn’t want to. Elphie could hole herself in any secluded place for days (even weeks) without human interaction and actually be happy with it. This girl usually camps out in the wilderness and watch wild pokemon in their natural habitat for weeks before going back to human civilization because she says that “Pokemon are way better than people”.
She’s cold and calculating
Elphie was a bright and promising child. Her parents often thought that she would be extremely smart when she grew up and they were right. Even though she had a fallout with her parents, and even if her father now deemed her as a disappointment to him, he still thought of Elphie as an extremely capable girl. The early onset of her analytical skills was well known when she was in her grade school days. Elphie was always on top of her batch, often getting bored with the basic lessons in school. This led to her parents to get a tutor that taught her advanced subjects. Even in high school she excelled despite being shunned. The fact that she had the privilege to not attend class everyday (the reason why she can camp out in those secluded places) and pass every exam or quiz with flying colors is a testament to her intellect. She is also fond of reading books about raising and training pokemon. Elphie has numerous notes that she herself has written to aid her in her impending pokemon journey.
She’s a hothead
Elphie has a short fuse. She can easily blow a gasket by just seeing the mere sight of a failed attempt on anything. Elphie is a perfectionist. She wants to do things flawlessly as much as possible. For her, there is usually no room for failure or else that sick and sadistic dark humor of hers would easily come out from the depths of her subconscious.
She’s very outspoken
Elphie is not scared or shy to voice out her opinion on things, though she sometimes shy away from conversations especially the shallow and stupid ones, she never failed to like the occasional debate with other people. For her this was healthy (or at least in her perception). The lack of empathy usually leads to people being hurt from her comments or opinions about things. Thus, the moniker “The *****”, was born.
History: Elphaba is the older among the two daughters of Rufus Thropp, a somewhat prominent trainer from Blackthorn City and Melena Thropp, a seamstress-turned- lady. Elphie, like most people call her, has a younger sister named Nessa whom she tends to and cares for the most. She isn’t really close to her parents given the fact that her somewhat ‘weird’ nature impedes her in socializing with others. Her parents favor the younger Nessa more than her, though this did not harbor any ill feelings towards the younger Thropp, it did develop a sense of mild hatred and annoyance towards their parents. This led into verbal scuffles with her parents, with her father most of the time who often called her a disappointment. The heart-breaking comment made her temporarily mute. Elphie didn’t speak to anyone, not even Nessa, though she still continued taking care of her sister. This continued for three months before she uttered her first word in months at the dining table, asking for ‘salt’. Up to this day she has yet to speak to her parents.
Elphie is very fond of Pokémon. Between the sisters, she is more of the trainer to-be type. Nessa is more into studying fashion and the culinary arts. She is usually seen around the grassy areas outside of Blackthorn City watching and studying and occasionally sketching wild Pokémon in their natural habitat. This personal outlook strengthened her personality of being an introvert. She tended more to Pokémon than to people with the exception of Nessa. An incident at a party led her parents into sending her off to her aunt, Glinda in Cherrygrove City where she stays currently prior to her pokemon journey. Glinda, being the good aunt that she is, advised Elphie to try and embark on a Pokémon journey because she fancies Pokémon a lot. This led to her locking up in her room for a week before coming out with the decision to take her aunt’s advice and traverse the road to New Bark Town, where the closest Pokémon laboratory is located. With her travel pack ready and supplies that would last for three days, Elphaba made her way to the town, following the route that was safest. It would be a pain if she encounters wild Pokémon without having one of her own to battle with.
Goals: To further her knowledge in Pokemon. Elphie would love to become an extremely good trainer to wipe off that 'disappointment' comment of her father as an "In your face" to him. She would also want to catch a Gible or a Bagon and train it so that one day, she could go toe to toe with the Champion whom she heard to have an extremely powerful Garchomp.
