yeehaw goin' back to my roots
AGE: around three to four years (in relative lifespan terms: a late teenager/young adult)
SEX & GENDER: male
ORIENTATIONS: asexual
RANK: raider
POKEMON: sableye
APPEARANCE: aside from being openly seen in daylight, nox's appearance doesn't vary from the standard description of his species: a dark purple body with tufts of spikes here and there, blue crystalline eyes, red jewel embedded in his chest, red + blue + green gems on back. as a gem-eating cave-dweller, he's built for cramped spaces and digging through rock, possible thanks to sharpened claws. having grown up in dim caverns, nox sees the world in only blurred movement and light, rendering him as blind as a bat and reliant on other senses, as well as echolocation. however, these are all expected traits of his line. perhaps the only feature distinctive about him is a crooked right wrist that causes his claws to awkwardly splay, the result of a broken arm. fortunately, this no longer affects his mobility beyond slight pain once in a while.
MOVESET: ability: prankster
- foul play [ dark / physical ]
- shadow claw [ ghost / physical ]
- power gem [ rock / special ]
- dark pulse [ dark / special ]
PERSONALITY: at the surface, nox behaves cynically and distantly, preferring to act on his own desires than for the group. in fact, the only reason he hangs around is due to the instinctive safety in numbers. carefree and lazy -- unless food is involved -- he seldom helps anyone but himself. considerably clever although he denies it. yet when outside his comfort zone is easily overwhelmed, leading to what humans once called the "sableye shakes", in which he freezes and trembles; a poor defense mechanism, in his opinion. once his rough exterior is bypassed, however, nox proves to be quite the jokester, often poking teasing fun at the others and never taking things too seriously.
RELATIONSHIP STATUS: n/a
PARENTS: whereabouts unknown
SIBLINGS: unknown, yet presumably did exist
CHILDREN: n/a
MENTOR/APPRENTICE: none
WEAPONS/ITEMS: nothin' but good ol' tooth and claw... very sharp, sturdy teeth and claws
HISTORY: nox doesn't like to reminisce on the past more than needed and is even more hesitant on openly talking about his background. the basic details he will share after prying include a solitary childhood, humans beginning to mine the cave system he and his colony inhabited, and a cave-in leaving him as one of the sole escaping survivors. afterward, he eventually found himself on the outskirts of the city, where he adapted to scavenging until everything went to hell.
OTHER: have this gem gremlin son
