WEIGHT 154 lbs
FACE CLAIM Haruko Haruhara ; FLCL
GENERAL APPEARANCE Louie is a more-or-less average female, if a little taller than some of her peers. She has small breasts, broad hips and relatively narrow shoulders; smooth skin and an equally smooth jawline, complete with a dainty nose. Her features are roughly symmetrical and one might, under rare circumstances (involving her fist not being near your face), call her "pretty".
Her eyes are a pale hazel shade; a peculiar mix of green and gold too often ringed with dark circles and glassy with fatigue. The strong eyebrows that arch over them are perhaps one of the most expressive features of her face; either raised in interest or waggled in suggestive flirtation.
Louie's hair is a pale reddish shade, cropped short about her shoulders -- too long and it's far too much of a hassle to care for, after all. She doesn't care much for it past making sure it's brushed and tangle-free, and rarely puts it up in anything other than a ponytail. (Not to mention the fact that she's never touched a hair-dryer in her life.)
Her build is an average one, with a few extra pounds packed in around the belly. She is technically healthy, and just can't be bothered to get toned -- besides, cake is too damn good to give up.
Finally, her style of dress is... masculine, to say the least. She has a physical aversion to frills and lace and pink, and demands to wear jeans and cargo pants and polo shirts. Not the silly cropped and super-fitted ones, mind you, the ones that give her room to move around and be comfortable. She's a big fan of jackets, and collects shiny new pieces whenever she happens to have superfluous money -- from faux parade jackets to heavy fur-lined winter wear. She admits this is a bit weird, sure, but no stranger than her refusal to wear shoes except when absolutely necessary.[/size]

HISTORY Louie has led an entirely boring, uneventful life. Perhaps the most interesting thing to happen to her before deciding to become a trainer was the day her junior year of high school that she was dubbed "science club president". And while that held a certain amount of pride for her, such a feat tends to not be held in such high regards with the rest of the world. (Unfortunately.)
She was born a happy, healthy child to Juliette and Thomas, a loving couple who supported and encouraged her throughout her childhood. Though she grew up around pokemon and was comfortable enough around them, she seemed reluctant to go into Training like her father had done -- Louie wanted to be a SCIENTIST. Though Thomas was a bit disappointed, his pouting was quickly put to a halt when Hunter was born. A rough-and-tumble little twerp, it was obvious that he didn't have the mental ability to do anything more than janitorial work or pokemon training, and so Thomas jumped at the ability to pass on his knowledge. Louie, however, stuck to school, the only drama she encountered being a brief struggle with her sexuality and endless amounts of homework.
The fights between Juliette and Thomas did not begin – or, rather, went unnoticed by Louie – until she was about sixteen. Having just taken on her more masculine nickname and entered the dreaded “MUST REBEL” phase of every child’s life, she began to pick up more on tension within the household. After several stormy months, the two split. It was awkward at first, but Louie couldn’t really say she was affected by it. She knew it ought to bother her, but she found she couldn’t make herself relate to what was going on. Her long-seated need to take everything lightly kicked into overdrive, perhaps spurring on her outlandish flirting behaviors.
Like any good student, she tucked her personal life into a corner and plugged away with schoolwork, keeping her good grades and moving on to a new academy that was reccomended to her.
A bit tentative at first, she worried about the additional responsibility. This would require her to raise other creatures – but also to bring back valuable information to the lab. (Not to mention the promise of having her name published as a co-author on the impending paper -- besides, half the species they wanted to look at could only be held under a trainer's licence. Hurray for exploiting loopholes!) With a resigned sigh – yes, this was really going down – she decided that she better forge her way into unknown territory and join the academy. [/size]

• • • there is nothing normal about being normal
[/color]pour out the persona on a table and show us all the pieces[/right]
DISLIKES gum, morons, those who do not understand her sense of humor, sigilyphs, alarm clocks, snow, being cold
HOBBIES painting, drawing, swimming
QUIRKS goes almost everywhere barefoot, endlessly sarcastic, likes to stand in the rain
OVERALL PERSONALITY The first and foremost thing about Louie’s personality is her sarcasm. She uses it both in defense and as the staple of her sense of humor, occasionally making it hard for people to read her (which was perhaps the goal all along). She very rarely takes anything seriously, preferring to make light of any and every situation. Perhaps the only thing she treats with any amount of severity are her pokemon (though she certainly doesn’t act as such). Louie gets things done, mind you, and is reliable enough… but you can’t hold it against her if she cracks a joke at someone’s funeral.
Ever juvenile, Louie adores to flirt with any lady she sees, often mimicking the worst pickup strategies of her male counterparts. She finds this endlessly entertaining, especially when the object of her teasing obviously attempts to reject her advances. Though she does have the ability to court in a more realistic manner, and anyone who actually manages to catch her fancy is likely to be spared her mocking come-ons… Louie is very likely to completely avoid her romantic interest altogether, for fear of forming something long-lasting and potentially dangerous. All in all, she’s definitely more the type for the occasional wild fling.
Louie is… rather full of herself. Her swagger is undeniable, no matter how much she may attempt to play it down. Most insults seem to roll right off her -- whether or not she's actually paying attention often comes into question. Comfortable in her own skin, she very rarely regrets anything and stands by her decisions. (Even if she damned well knows she's done something stupid, she will defend it into the ground.) Surprisingly, despite her natural aptitude and rather quick wits, she enjoys playing dumb -- in fact, this almost feeds into her swagger, and even she isn't quite sure why this aura of false stupidity gives her such a sense of self-empowerment and security.
Adventuresome and with a great love for games, she is rarely seen sitting still. Be it rock-climbing or gambling or drinking contests, Louie has a need to be doing something -- sitting around idly is the way to madness, in her eyes. Too much time sitting around gives you too much time to think, and pondering her fate and place in the universe only serves to make her nauseous. She will get noticeably uncomfortable when stuck in boring, political situations -- often fidgeting or moving restlessly in her seat.
She also loves a good prank -- drawing from both her odd sense of humor and general sense of adventure and lack of respect for rules -- and anyone she deems a friend will most certainly be the butt of these jokes. From the elaborate blind-date setups to switching sugar with salt, she has no end of ways to irritate others. And of this, she is rather proud.
And besides, Prisoner B is a nice guy.[/size]
