[♥♥♥♥♥] Nayeli Hart
→ Age:
[♥♥♥♥♥] Thirteen
→ Gender:
[♥♥♥♥♥] Girl
→ Trainer Type:
[♥♥♥♥♥] Pokémon Ranger
→ Hometown:
[♥♥♥♥♥] Mahogany Town
→ Appearance:
[♥♥♥♥♥] Nayeli is a thirteen year old girl who hasn't hit puberty yet. She has some features of a maturing girl, mostly when it comes to her figure though. She has a small waist and her breasts are starting to develop, other then that she's incredibly physically fit. Standing at an even five feet and weighing in at ninety pounds Nayeli falls into an average size for her age bracket. The important fact to this is that she is two inches taller than Aristos Hardy, a factor that she constantly reminds him of. She has a sort of squarish face with rather plain, symmetrical, features except her very small, thin eyebrows and light purple eyes. She doesn't use make up to accentuate any of her features and rarely uses chap-stick, the strawberry flavored chap-stick is reserved for the driest of conditions. Her hair is a dull brown color, it's length is somewhere between her shoulders and her elbows, the back part is thick and she has a few shorter strands that mostly blend in when it's worn down or frame her face when worn up (in a ponytail on the side of her head). Two curls frame her face in cooperation with two strands of hair, she has bangs that reach above her eyebrows but she keeps them back with a red-orange headband that has a gold heart clipped onto it. Regardless of the weather she wears this headband, it's a signature item of hers. The other thing regardless of weather is that the ends of her hair are baby pink, even her ahoge which always points the opposite direction of her ponytail.
[♥♥♥♥♥] Visually she's rather plain. However her greatest feature is her voice. Her voice has has such a great tone that people can't help but listen to what she says. It's very girlish and her syllables are very clear. When she speaks each syllable seems to have a different note and she moves between them smoothly, so she has the strange effect of sounding like she's almost singing but not like the childish sing-song voice which sounds mocking. It's got rich tones to it and is very smooth and could be described as sweet. When Nayeli sings, it's beautiful and makes people stop in their tracks. Each song is filled with emotion and draws people in. People often tell her how great her voice is, talking or singing, everyone except Aristos who always has a new insult.
[♥♥♥♥♥] When it comes to clothing she looks suspiciously similar to other PokéRangers. She wears a red-orange mini jacket with very light pink trim on the cuffs and bottom of the jacket. It has two bronze-colored ties that when the jacket is closed she ties into a bow, otherwise they're left hanging. The back of the jacket has a pink, that same color from earlier, heart in between where her shoulder blades are. The jacket also features pockets on the inside where she keeps small items. Underneath this she wears a simple black t-shirt. She wears a matching skirt that stops around mid-thigh, underneath it she wears black shorts that cling and end a good amount above her knees (in winter she swaps out shorts for black leggings). With her skirt she wears a pink belt, that matches the accents on her jacket. It has a gold buckle and another pink heart on it. Clipped to her belt is a lasso that has a love ball on one end of it. For shoes she wears red-orange hiking boots, they are pretty plain except for pink bows held on with gold hearts. With these she's ready for long hikes in the woods. Sturdy cloth gloves complete this outfit and she's ready for her journey!
But don't just take my word for it, look for yourself.
→ Personality:
[♥♥♥♥♥] Stubborn is the first word that should be used to describe the thirteen year old. Once she's decided something she is not changing her mind no matter what comes around to say otherwise. In deciding things she is ruled by her emotions rather than logic, she doesn't think about decisions she feels them. Her gut instinct is her most trusted adviser and she listens to it above everything else. However she's not dumb, she wont follow her instinct into something obviously stupid but she does come close. She will say things stupid every once in a while. The first thing that she thinks of is usually what she says. Nayeli is not slow in approaching in conversation and will calmly say what's on her mind. Occasionally she uses what little wisdom she has (enough to not play in traffic or fall for easy to see through scams) to keep her mouth shut, but other then that she is very capable of stepping on toes. Because of her bluntness she has the strange by-product of being rather honest. While she wont admit that she was the one who took the last cookie she will admit that she was the one who accidentally knocked an important vase off its post and broke it. The reason being that most people aren't really upset when the last cookie is taken but an important object being broken will put some in tears. She confesses easily to what she's done wrong if the person is upset about it. But this never applies to conversational things, once she's decided her way to do something that is the best way to do that and she is not changing her mind, ever.
[♥♥♥♥♥] Nayeli smiles and laughs a lot. One of the first things that people notice about her is that she seems to genuinely enjoy life. And it's true. Each new thing is a new precious memory and she dutifully records each one in her diary. Her two greatest loves in life are pokémon and the outdoors. She's a very active girl, but not to the point of being hyper-active, and doesn't hesitate to run from one area to another or skip around or climb a tree just because. While she loves the entirety of life she's happiest when she's outside. In exploring new areas she shows no hesitation in moving forward, and even if she gets lost she'll rarely despair at what has happened. However she's not the little girl who gets lost very easily anymore, she has fairly decent sense of direction and knows how to locate north.
[♥♥♥♥♥] Pokémon are precious to her. She hasn't met one that she didn't like so far and she's quick to encourage others to treat their pokémon like family. Though a trainer should treat them like children, and children need to know their parents love them. When she sees other trainers being callous to theirs she gets sad and tries to discourage such behavior. When she sees someone outright abusing their pokémon she loses her cheerful calm demeanor and outright gets angry at them, this is when she'll scold another trainer. She has some quirks specific to certain pokémon. When it comes to Furrets though she simply treats them like people. She politely greets each one she meets and offer to shake its paw and if she comes across a burrow of one she occasionally politely asks to enter their home. The other pokémon that get special treatment from her are Magikarp and Gyarados. She's simply fond of the two since she saw them a lot while growing up. To entertain pokémon or try to calm them down she often sings to them, wild or caught. Spontaneous hugs are also something she loves to give to anyone, human or not.
[♥♥♥♥♥] The only verbal tick that she has is that she inserts French words or phrases into her conversations without really thinking about it. Other then that she has an intense rivalry with Aristos Hardy and whenever he's involved she is very competitive.
→ History:
[♥♥♥♥♥] Years before she was born a man met a woman and the two fell in love. On the road to Mt. Silver they decided to continue their journey together. Afterwards they settled down in Mahogany Town, where they decided to start a family. It took quite a few tries but eventually in the fall, when the trees were shedding their leaves for winter, a baby girl was born. They named her 'Nayeli', which mean 'I love you' in an old language and their lives were complete. After her birth they raised her with the same enthusiasm they had used in their journey. They wanted nothing more than for her to be healthy and happy. She met all her milestones in development, walked when she should be walking, smiled a little early but that was okay, started talking when she should be (and what a beautiful voice it was). Socially though, she hid away from people. When her mother brought her next door to introduce to the little boy that lived there she hid behind her mom. When children would knock on the door and ask for her to come outside and play with her, she hid behind the couch and refused to leave the house. Nayeli was a little bigger when compared to the other children, not height wise but width. Considered plump by the others she had a hard time getting along with them and instead of doing anything just avoided them.
[♥♥♥♥♥] However her parents only put up with her spending the whole day inside up to a certain point. After a while they started forcing her to go outside where she'd wander around the town, draw in the dirt and not participate in the games the other children played. That was only so entertaining though. Her neighbor, Aristos, encouraged her to join in on the games. The only game that she participated in with the others was hide and go seek. And after she got the hang of it she proved to be quite skilled in hiding. She was either the last or second to last found, the one taking the other spot was always Aristos. The two kids became friends quickly and eventually her parents couldn't keep her from playing outside. And as she played outside more and more she developed an athletic body to keep up with the other children and whatever adventure she wanted to try. She loved nature and couldn't wait to find what else was there to be found. With a spirit of exploration and adventure her and her friend often wandered away from the town to anywhere. However both of them were directionally challenged and would get horribly lost. It quickly became normal for the two to not return until sundown, usually led back by Sheila who often scolded them for being too dramatic.
[♥♥♥♥♥] In their outdoor adventures one of their favorite places to hang out was the Lake of Rage, conveniently located north of their home town. They played in the water and tried to coax the Magikarp to come close enough for them to pet or feed them. Nayeli loved seeing the Magikarp and often tried to imitate their expressions. When the occasional Gyarados swam up she was always impressed with the size and couldn't help but stare, when she got over the shock of their size she also tried to imitate their expressions as well. Typically, when she got scared or sad and wanted to run away she'd run north the the lake and find comfort in the waters and from the Magikarp. When she was mostly alone there she liked to sing to those who lived in the lake.
[♥♥♥♥♥] Nayeli was five years old when her parents went their separate ways. There was nothing that led up to this, just that her mother wanted to be with her Furret more than she wanted to be with her husband. Nayeli's father left without saying anything and the girl wondered why he didn't take her. At first she hated the new Furret parent, it was hard to communicate with, did strange things (like rip each day's newspaper to shreds and pile it in a corner or dig in the yard to make a burrow) and anyone who visited made the strangest expressions when it came time for breakfast. On top of that it's mode of discipline was to bite onto the back of her shirt and drag her back and forth on the carpet, it's amazing that she never got rug burn from that. It was impossible to understand. Later, after she'd gotten used to it being around, she learned that it was a girl. Because of this she has very different behaviors towards Furrets.
[♥♥♥♥♥] At seven years old she realized something, whenever she was playing hide and seek with everyone Aristos almost always found her first, when anyone else was to find everyone she was one of the last to be found. In her mind it made no sense for her to be the first found when he was looking. Instead of talking about it with anyone she decided that he must be singling her out for some reason, to her he was trying to make a point of being better than her. From there she made it a point to find him before anyone else as well. Even if she spotted where another kid was hiding before she spotted him she passed them by and didn't find anyone else until she found him. This was when the rivalry between the two started and in the years to follow she did her best to be better than him. If she found out something he was good at and she wasn't she focused on that task until she was better or could at least compete on even footing. Since both of them were horrible with directions she made sure to learn how to always find north and navigate almost anywhere. It took her a long time but she figured it out. The two switched from being good friends to being rivals.
[♥♥♥♥♥] Around this time (a year later) her neighbor's house burned the ground. Aristos and his family moved in with Nayeli's and her home life became even stranger. His family never moved out since the two families were able to fit nicely into the house together. Against their parents' wishes though the two didn't get over their rivalry and return to being friends.
[♥♥♥♥♥] Which led to nine years old. A year before she was ready to start her journey she didn't know what type of trainer she wanted to be. Her mother suggested that she talk to the gym leader, Pryce, since he would know a lot (after hearing Aristos' parents suggest the same thing). Nayeli wandered off to the gym and arrived in time to hear her rival ask the same question she was wondering, "What's a good trainer type for someone who loves pokémon and the outdoors?" The gym leader thought about this and informed the two that a ranger would be good, he explained what a ranger did and both of them knew that this was the type of trainer they wanted to be. Aristos announced that this was the trainer he wanted to be and immediately she countered that he couldn't since that was the trainer she was going to be. The two started to argue right there. Pryce pointed out that there was nothing wrong with the two of them being the same type of trainer but they didn't give up the argument. Eventually the argument came to who would be a better ranger. Aristos announced that he'd be so good he wouldn't need to use the routes to travel. Her reply; "Oh yeah? Me too!" And then she included that she wouldn't even have to use the routes to get to New Bark town.
[♥♥♥♥♥] At ten years old the two set off for where they'd pick up their first pokémon. True to what they said the two set off not down the road in front of them but to the woods and then the mountains in the surrounding area. The two walked in silence for the longest time and when the Aristos asked why she was following him she just declared that they just happened to be going in the same direction, she wasn't following him at all. Eventually the two got completely lost in the mountains and were too stubborn to admit this fact to themselves or each other. So for years they wandered around, mostly in circles. Occasionally they'd become familiar with the area they were wandering in and be able to direct other lost people off the mountain. Regardless of their state of rivalry and stubbornness they traveled together and Nayeli took every chance she could to prove that she was the better ranger. During this time she never openly shared her food with him. If he prepared a particularly bad dish for himself, she might "forget" to put the extra food she prepared away while she set up her tent or something similar to that. The two arrived in New Bark town about three years later, Nayeli was thirteen years old.
→ Goals:
[♥♥♥♥♥] Nayeli hopes to encourage people to be kind to pokémon, she knows a lot of trainers already are but she hopes everyone will come to love and cherish their pokémon as they would members of their families. Especially the Magikarps, she has a soft spot for Magikarp and Gyarados. Other then that she wants to become the best pokémon ranger, so great that she's a household name and in the process be better than Aristos.

[♥♥♥♥♥] She's working on perfecting being able to use her voice to influence pokémon, with good results so far.
