Lily Reynolds

[Lily Reynolds]

Name: Lillian "Lily" Reynolds
Age: Sixteen
Appearance:

Lily is a tall girl, standing at a high (for girls) five foot, ten inches. A fair amount of this height is in her long legs. Her hair is long too, reaching down past her waist. It's straight, though slightly curved at the ends, and is a dark brunette. She has a pretty face with large red eyes. Her general expression is a friendly one, though she occasionally looks lost in thought, giving her eyes a far away look. She has a trim build and fair muscle tone that comes from her athletics. She also seems to have an interesting metabolism. With her cooking, she tends to eat a fair amount more then most people with her build (including sweets, she loves sweets :D), yet most of any weight gain she has is in her chest. Lily has great posture, and stands without slouching. Her mannerisms are very adult, like for example she sits up straight, one leg crossed over the other, with her hands resting in her lap.

Oh yeah, and don't even ask for her weight ;)

Her clothing tends to be tank tops and shorts (weather permitting). She likes having her arms and legs as free as possible. She tends not to like showing off more skin then that. The only time she wears less coverage is when she's working out and she tends to work out in private.

Personality:

Lily's foremost personality trait is that she is very maternal. She always looks to treat the people around her as best as possible. She acts very mature for her age, and exudes this fact in her demeanor. She's a great listener and is always willing, and even happy to listen to people's problems or anything else they'd like to talk about. She also seems very wise and tends to give good advice. It tends to be good because she never tells the person what they should do, and more aims to get them to bring themselves to a conclusion. She likes to do things for people and is a fantastic host. People visiting her get treated very well, and usually find they are not without snacks and beverages. Snacks are usually something she made herself because she loves cooking. She's also very organized and loves to keep things clean and neat.

This seemingly very calm and controlled girl is not entirely so however. On the surface she's a rock, always there to support everyone. However, this is more extreme then it seems. Lily feels like she has to be strong for everyone and never leans on others herself. She feels like she has to take on their burdens and appear indestructible to do this. Therefore, any problems she might be having become hidden behind her smile as she tries to deal with them alone. Also, Lily has very low self worth. Subconsciously she feels like she's a tool. That she's suppose to be taken for granted. This is tied into her maternal side. Mother's are notoriously under appreciated, and Lily feels as if that's how she should be treated without even realizing it. She simply waves off any compliments siting the things she goes out of her way to do for people are nothing, as if it was her responsibility. With this, Lily could be abused. As long as it's subtle, obvious attempts to abuse her would be reacted to negatively. Consciously she won't stand for such things, but someone manipulating things cleverly could take advantage of her good nature.

As for things that bother her, well they really bother her. Lily's calm and collected nature belies what she was when she was younger. Lily actually has an extremely fiery temper. As a child, she was a terror. She would rage at the slightest thing and throw tantrums like no other. Her parents put her in a karate class to help teach her more control and discipline, not too mention it made for a nice outlet. When she got older, she branched out into yoga and tai chi to help as well. This helped her with stress and keeping a grip on her temper. Now she is rarely seen angry. She practices her techniques everyday to make sure of this. However, her temper does still exist and her control is not perfect. If she encounters something that really pisses her off, she'll explode on it in a rage.

While Lily does try to maintain her 'mature' and adult demeanor, she is still just a sixteen year old girl. She can be a bit excitable over things she's looking forward too and loves cute things. She likes to dance and have fun with friends. One of her favorite hobbies is cooking. Her mother taught her and she is quite skilled at it. When it comes to guys, she tends to assume they're not flirting with her and just being nice (part of her low self-worth). She has trouble dealing with romantic feelings and if a guy makes it blatantly obvious he's interested in her, Lily gets pretty flustered. She blushes, gets awkward, and has trouble thinking of things to say. As for her relationship with Pokémon, Lily isn't very bias. She'll like one for being cute or funny just as much as she would for being strong.

History:

Lily Reynolds is the daughter of a businessman and a stay at home mom. Her dad was away a lot, so Lily spent most of her time with her mom, watching her and learning her ways. When she was very young though, she was prone to tantrums and got angry at the slightest provocation. She became a lot for her mother to handle alone, and was put in a karate class to help learn some self discipline. She actually enjoyed it though and it helped. Her instructor taught her many things, some helpful and some odd - like how Prisoner B is a nice guy. Her interest grew and when she was older, she began taking other classes to help her gain even better control, among other advantages. First she moved into Tai Chi, and later branched into Yoga.

Another hobby she picked up was from her mother - cooking. Letting Lily 'help' was one of the only ways her mother could calm her down when she was younger. Lily loved it, and when she got older actually began to learn the skill. Lily got into Pokémon later then most. Her life hadn't had many Pokémon in it, neither of her parents were real trainers. Her mother had an old Chansey that belonged to her mother, but it just helped with the housework. However, she eventually hopped on the bandwagon and began to take an interest in the little creatures. Not wanting to do things halfway, she submitted an application into the Pokémon academy.
