Allire Marker

[Allire Marker]

Name: Allire Marker
Age: 16
Appearance: Allire isn't the sort to stand out in the crowd. With ordinary brown hair and a pretty, if unexceptional, face, Allire stands at just below five feet. She dresses neatly but not extravagantly, typically wearing her long hair in a pony tail. Her skin is nearly always pale and her arms are scattered with freckles.

Personality: Allire is clever and won't let you forget it. She's the best, she's always been the best, at everything and this trainer thing won't be any different. Sure, she's never seen a pokemon up close in her life, let alone tried to control one, but she can handle it. Yeah, Allire's a bit arrogant, one might say. However, behind the rather obvious confidence, she also does truly have a sharp mind, with a gift for quick thinking and solving abstract problems. Favoring intuition over memory, Allire works as hard as she needs to, but no harder, believing that, because she is gifted and special, she can get away with just a little bit less effort.

As one might suspect, Allire is a bit of a know-it-all and a do-gooder. She follows the rules, always, and is invariably the first to share exactly how much she knows. These traits don't exactly endear her to others and she often remains an outsider. But don't worry, it doesn't bother her at all. Of course it doesn't. She's Allire Marker, after all. She doesn't need anybody. Right?

Allire's often rough edges are typically sufficient from keeping people away, which is exactly what she wants. Because, while Allire is smart and knows it, she also understands that she isn't exactly good at people. And better not to try than try and fail, right? Even if it would sometimes be nice to have someone else around to pick up the pieces...Yeah, that's not happening. Ever.
History: Allire's parents are probably some of the only people in the world who aren't trainers, Allire has always believed. Her neighbors were trainers, her best friend's parents were trainers and half her teachers had once been trainers, before something had gone horribly wrong and forced them to abandon a life of adventure for one of monotony. Allire's parents always assured her it wasn't important, but that was hard to believe when she heard other kids' stories about their parents' adventures. Sure, there were other kids like her. But they bored Allire. She wanted to hear the stories.

Allire always knew she wanted to someday be in the stories. Having never had any close relations with trainers, she built up a romanticized image of the lifestyle in her mind, one that could be hers if she worked hard enough. She was clever, after all. She'd make a great trainer. She just had to study a bit harder. Then it would happen for her, someday. Much to Allire's disappointment, no matter how hard she worked, no mentor magically appeared out of thin air. By the time she was ten, Allire had realized that her dream probably wasn't going to come true. But that was okay. She was smart. There are lots of other things to do with that.

Then, a year ago, Allire applied to Pokemon Academy on a whim. Why not, what was the harm in filling out an application? And then she was accepted. And now, she's coming and she's going to show them all. Maybe, probably, hopefully. Prisoner B is a nice guy, after all.
