Yeoman, Zeth "Yeo"

CHARACTER NAME:  Zeth "Yeo" Yeoman

AGE:  22

CLASS: Trainer / breeder

HOMETOWN: Lavender Town, Kanto

APPEARANCE:

Yeo possess glacier piercing eyes and small but still expressive eyebrows. His thick, straight hair is generally kept short, though his hairstyle resembles "bedhead cowlick" more than any artistic haircut. He sticks to comfortable but functional clothes, such as athletic wear and he is always wearing a pair of sneakers, even indoors. He often wears a scarf, but not at the point of vanity over comfort. He has a pair of sunglasses with large, rounded lenses resembling the "cop" style that he wears occassionally. He is about 5 ft 1 in, slightly under average for his age, and has a lean build. 

PERSONALITY:

Not much the fun sort, Yeo has remnants of what was once a kinder, happier, devil-may-care party boy, but seems to have clammed up tighter than an opinionated old fart. He listens more than he speaks; acts more than he hears. Stubborn, calculating, and taciturn beyond his years, he is generally unpleasant but surprisingly knowledgeable. His willpower is iron and his personal drive is steeled. He is goal driven, of which he has a few, but talks surprisingly little of. 

HISTORY:

Hailing from Lavender, Kanto, the town of psychics, dark pokemon, and more ghost stories than folks knew what to do with, Yeo was brought up in a brooding, secretive small town community where everyone knew each other's secrets to the point of gossip and general nastiness of virtually being a cult, the atmosphere only broken by other interests in metaphysics, death, and occasionally, pokemon. To survive socially was for no one to know who you really were.

Every trainer that came through was a breath of fresh air and a few months of relief from neighborly vindictiveness, and one of them, a young child, Rodger, befriended the young Zeth. Together Rodger and Zeth became fast friends, bonding over Rodger's newly caught ghastly with Zeth's help, and were delighted together when ghastly evolved to haunter. When Rodger left, Zeth had a few more months until he would turn of age to start his own pokemon adventure.

Six months later, Zeth finally caught up to Rodger, but his pokemon and skills were vastly subpar to Rodger's, who had been adventuring for far longer. Competitive and dismayed, a rift between the two began to form. Zeth tried to get into pokemon coordination but found their pickiness, standards, and practices absurd and disgusting. Zeth turned to partying when he discovered that he and Rodger had little left in common. Half-hearted and perpetually broke, Zeth finally abandoned his journey and returned home to nurse his sick mother with only two badges. When she passed away, Zeth determined that he would start again in a new region. The pokemon that he had acquired on his journey were worth just enough for a cruise ticket to Kanto to start anew, far away from the distractions that derailed him last time.

He would become a pokemon master in pokemon, skill, and knowledge.
