Aurélie Meursault-Jacosse.

Name - Aurélie Meursault-Jacosse.

Gender - Female.

Age - Fifteen.

Appearance - Aurélie carefully inspected the area around her seat; to leave a personal belonging behind within her first breath of New Barkian air would be heart-breaking. Nothing seemed to be missing and yet the exhausted eyes of this pale foreign teenager insisted on scanning the seat again and again, listing her surroundings and clothing under her breath repeatedly, never convinced of her own security. Aurélie pulled her dark jeans up so they clung tightly to her thin frame, a black skin mirroring the shape of her own legs exactly. Such a long journey had had a negative effect on the figure-hugging attire of this young traveller, falling loose on her body. Tugging her black pointed boots towards the delicate feet within, Aurélie proceeded to button up the cuffs and front of the fitted coat she wore, just reaching her knees. Two necklaces hung around her neck, concealed beneath the thick wool of her clothing; one a pewter clock, the other a bronze birdcage securing a small white bird sitting on a swing inside. Aurélie’s final piece of sentimental jewellery was settled comfortably around her wrist - a silver charm bracelet, the centre charm a glass bead encasing the crest of her homeland. Arms stretched out awkwardly behind her, the girl opened her mouth wide and let out a loud yawn - a noise that seemed far too primal for her pixie-like stature. Aurélie removed her black and silver frame glasses, rubbed her eyes, and produced a black beaked masquerade mask from the small glossy grey messenger bag by her feet. She knew it was strange, and she knew others would judge, however Aurélie’s appreciation of her traditional culture and extreme affection for birds ensured that her appearance would never make her feel negatively eye-catching. Positioning the mask correctly on her slender face, Aurélie replaced her glasses with seemingly-opaque goggles. She quickly ran a brush through her dark brown hair, strikingly complimented by a streak of natural white, adjusting her fringe as only an adolescent can. Drenched in black, the exhausted voyager hoisted her bag up onto her shoulders, quickly making her way towards the exist. Aurélie caught sight of herself in a mirror as she advanced, a shadow of a girl. Such dark thermal clothing was a far cry from her island life, but she was facing a winter in Johto, after all. One final violent shiver and a sharp intake of breath; Aurélie stepped off the boat into the cold light of an exciting new morning.

tl;dr - Aurélie is a thin girl, with a delicate frame and young face. She has dark brown hair with a white streak in the fringe caused by a birthmark. Upon arriving in Johto, she is wearing entirely black attire; skinny jeans, chelsea boots, and a double-breasted fitted coat. She keeps her sentimental jewellery close to her heart, wearing two necklaces and a charm bracelet, including a charm of her island’s crest. Aurélie wears glasses, but has instead chosen to wear black goggles over a traditional beaked mask. For convenience, she carries a grey messenger bag.

Personality - Aurélie finds the whole world fascinating. From a young age, she has obsessed over vivid colours, intricate detail, and how things functioned, both natural and man-made. Facing the world with a child-like wonder gives Aurélie a constant sense of achievement, each step an exploration, each sight a discovery. Spending her childhood on an island, Aurélie was born with an adventurous heart, investigating every inch of the land available, longing to reach out and be amazed by the larger regions she could gaze at across the water from her bedroom. While often scatter-brained and clumsy, Aurélie is a perfectionist and has a distinct ability to bring order to a chaotic prediciment. However, rather than this be a level-headed act of sensibility, order and control is usually obtained after a stressful and volatile incident preceding Aurélie’s eventual grasp of the situation. Growing up with such a meticulous and controlling nature, she quickly developed ‘quirks’ - ‘quirks’ diagnosed as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder; while Aurélie does not consider this a burden, nor a condition, and argues that she does not ‘suffer’ with it, her OCD can somewhat impede her every day life. She taps, twitches, flicks, strokes, counts, categorises, and lists. Anything and everything to ensure the world - her world - is ‘even’. Unfortunately, these habits increase with anxiety, in turn causing her to be more anxious, leading only to problems. However, many people find her quirks endearing, claiming they suit Aurélie’s curious personality. Despite all of this, Aurélie is pleasant and polite, willing to meet new people and absorb their outlook of life, if somewhat demure at times. Feeling close ties with her own traditions, Aurélie appreciates the beliefs of others and respects the right to an alternate attitude. While on a quest to discover the biological mechanics behind every phenomenon - mind-blowing or simply mundane, she sometimes find herself weighed down by the burdens of her world, collapsing onto the ground in a heap of melodrama; although, this is rare, as Aurélie is more often than not an excitable, inquisitive soul, searching for the next obscure concept or challenging task.

Background - Aurélie was born on Mana, one of the four islands located in a stretch of water collectively known as the Soifra region. Small, and tropical, Mana is considered an ideal location to raise a family, escaping the rocky terrain of Gana, and the tourist-orientated lifestyle of Jana. Although the Soifrian range are French colonies, the natives have adopted the universal language of Planet Zulu, English, as their mother tongue. However, the French language still maintains a heavy influence, many Pokémon colloquially known by their French titles. Aurélie herself grew up very close to a Venonat, addressed by his French equivalent, ‘Mimitoss’. While the neighbouring Kana is famed for its vast abundance of Water- and Bug-type Pokémon, ‘L’Île des Oiseaux’, Mana delights in the majesty of its diverse winged population. Perhaps the most interesting and attractive feature of Soifrian islands are their seemingly unique colour variations. Not as spectacular as ‘Shiny’ alternate colour variations, nor as famed and sought after, Pokémon residing in this region are of noticeably atypical shades, some darker, some lighter, brighter, or with an unexpected hint of pink or green. While never as eye-catching as rare variants such as black Charizard or green Muk, the most striking of the Manafrian shaded creatures is the island’s national Pokémon, Roucool - a slightly deeper brown Pidgey with abnormally blue talons and beak.

Aurélie’s father, Cécil Meursault, has lived on Mana for his entire life, from a long line of Manafrian natives. Hyacinthe Jacosse, Aurélie’s mother, spent her childhood in her hometown on Kana, before travelling to Johto with aspirations of becoming a Pokémon Trainer - a prerequisite of which, is to travel across foreign lands. Hyacinthe spent almost a decade progressing through the main regions, the thrill of catching a new Pokémon never dwindling. However, upon returning to Soifra, Hyacinthe met Cécil while on a visit from Mana, and realised her days as a travelling Trainer were over. After settling down, Cécil and Hyacinthe worked together in their own Pokémon Breeding & Research Facility, giving Aurélie Meursault-Jacosse constant exposure to these curious creatures and fuelling her passion for discovery. Noticing her daughter’s thirst for knowledge and drive for new experiences, Aurélie’s mother suggested that she travel to Johto, from which to begin her Pokémon journey. After a long and reluctant goodbye from her father, Aurélie stepped on a boat destined for New Bark Town.

Other info - Fascinated by Shiny Pokémon, and how the same species can vary regionally, Aurélie desires to make her way across Johto, building up her Pokémon collection and gathering information; learning all she can about the region, before focusing specifically on researching the strange phenomenon of rare colour variations - perhaps finally pinpointing the genetic or environmental causes behind these beautiful mutations. While striving to this ambition, Aurélie’s heart also belongs to the Bird Pokémon of Zulu; having flown over Mana on the back of a Roucarnage - a Soifrian Pidgeot - at the age of three, birds and their magnificence have always dazzled Aurélie. As her own personal quest, Aurélie has set herself the challenge of catching and befriending every species of Bird Pokémon she comes across during her journey. Spending her childhood with Mimitoss, Aurélie also has a soft spot for Bug Pokémon. She left her closest friend at home on Mana, as he was too young to travel; Aurélie may get lonely in Johto, and seek a travelling partner.
