[Christof Drescher]

Instructor Personality

• With Pokémon:
  
  Patient, Understanding, Gentle, Kind, Firm(during training)
• With Staff and Peers(by his standards):
  
  Cool, Prim, Disconnected, Respectful
• With Students and "Non-Peers":
  
  Strict, Demanding, Impatient(circumstantial)

Christof doesn't tend to get along with many people, this is likely due to his usually impatience and low tolerance for many of the things that other humans say and do. He is quick to voice or otherwise demonstrate his displeasure when someone does or says something that he feels is unintelligent, and show absolutely no tolerance for selfish or inconsiderate behavior of trainers towards their pokémon. Disconnected from most other humans, he tends to remain secluded when inside any on campus buildings, or to engage in his preference and spend vasts amounts of time out in the safari zone, or doing outdoor exercises with his pokémon. However, he isn't completely put off by other humans, and does have the ability to be compassionate and understanding with them as well; however, most people aren't going to get to see that, it's very circumstantially based.

Trainer Gift:

One of the Pack:

Christof tends to blend in with the energy of pokemon, both wild and "tame". Because of this his presence rarely sets off aggression or fear when he moves into the territory or presence of wild pokemon and is usually accepted into an untame environment as though he has always been there. "Tame" pokemon, similarly, are more likely to trust his intentions towards them (even if they have specific reason not to trust his intentions towards their trainer

Relevant Professions:

• Ethologist:
• Trainer:(Specialized trainer: Eevee and Evolved Forms)
  
  Though he had been training his pokémon since the beginning, Christof didn't really bother with getting his name out there as a trainer any more than he absolutely had too. That is, not until he was no longer able to make his living studying pokémon. Due to the fact that he had put off engaging in official tournaments far longer than most from the point of beginning to train pokémon, his career appeared to progress exceptionally quickly for two reasons. Legitimately, his training techniques were solid and had been thoroughly worked through and perfected in his time of being out in the wild and having little else to do outside of his studies. Also though, the artificial 'explosion' of his career because his very experienced teams were making their debut already trained enough to be champions, rather than stumbling into years of tournaments still green and untested. He achieved master status prior to giving up this life entirely, once his renown and accumulated funds allowed him to focus more exclusively on his breeding endeavors.
• Breeder: (Eevee)
  
  With his prestige and accumulated savings, Christof can afford for his Eevees to be both pricey (is it a rare pokémon to find in the wild after all) and hard to earn. Yes, earn, Christof is not only known for the price of the pokémon he breeds, but because he regularly turns down applicants that do not fit his definition of an 'acceptable trainer'. He had waited to actually sell the young his pokémon he produced, intentionally so he could enjoy this specific privileged, not fond of the way he had felt giving up pokémon in his contracting days to those he didn't feel should be near a pokémon. Officially he continues to breed his pokémon at the school, his condition for taking over as one of the instructors, that he be both allowed to do so, and be granted the facilities to see to the breeding, raising, training, and in some cases evolving of his Eevees.
  
  His Eevees, in general tend to be significantly larger than the average size, as he made a point to breed Eevees from locations where predation of Eevees by other Pokémon is low, predation of other Pokémon by Eevee is high (high protein over generations contributes to more advance development) and the environment is least conducive to the natural evolution of wild Eevees. One of his well known breeding males, Panzer, is nearly larger than the average 1' height by half, all of them measure at least a foot and a quarter.

[Christof Drescher]

Teaching Style

In line with his personality, in regards to students, Mr. Drescher shows little tolerance for students who are not both demonstrating a acceptable level of intelligence, and drive. Personally he doesn't care much for the in classroom time, but he knows he has to have at least some of that, similarly traditional multiple choice nonsense is adhered too in order to 'give students a chance to succeed'. Christof tends to think of it as coddling them. His preferred method of teaching is activity, whether it be physically demanding activity, or having students actually experience and observe the concepts taught in the classroom. In most cases, he will not budge in his demands, something that likely makes him rather unpopular with the student body, no doubt something they have picked up that he doesn't care about one bit. There are rare occasions, however, when he notes a genuine need of a student for help or accommodation, and for that he will work with the student in question. This however, he is not about to make known to the rest of the students.

Subject Content

Christof does not teach battling directly, nor battle tactics. Instead the aspects of Pokémon 'handling' that he deals with fall into two categories. Physical conditioning, and understanding a pokémon's needs and behaviors through observation.

Physical conditioning focuses on running drills and obstacle courses designed to improve a pokémon's abilities, such as speed, attack, defense, endurance, and occasionally practicing techniques (though not in battle) to improve a pokémon's mastery of these techniques and when applicable their accuracy. The part that many young trainers have difficulty with at first, and some never forgive him for, is that most of these exercises are subjected not only to the pokémon, but to the trainers themselves as well. Make no mistake, the pace will be grueling, leaving the average student exhausted. The education portion of physical conditioning is one that Christof actually enjoys, and that is teaching students how to either construct, or identify good ways to train their own pokémon in these non-battle oriented matters. It is, after all, how most of his training was conducted while he was too far from civilization to count on encountering other trainers to battle with (not to mention access to unlimited medical care in case something went wrong).

Observation is based on his belief that a pokémon can tell you nearly all you need to know of its needs, desires, and what training works best for it, but that the trainer must learn to become in tune with pokémon behavior, in general, by species, and by individual to access this knowledge. Even those few trainers that can understand pokéspeak or psychically link with their pokémon can use these skills in handling wild pokémon and in battle, not to mention in instances where a pokémon might not realize it's need cognitively, but only sends signals of such subconsciously. This is what a fair amount of actual 'in classroom' time is used for. However, Christof's preference is to have students actually observe pokémon, finding reasons to go out into the safari zone for this reason, and requiring students to keep detailed journals of their own pokémon's behavior, with speculations and attempts to confirm or refute those speculations.

[Christof Drescher]

Instructor Background

The Drescher Family has had a long history of working with Pokémon, specifically in battle training and tournaments. However, this long honored tradition had become systematically darker over the most recent generations. What had caused the change was not clear, but the community at large began to see signs that the Drescher men were not training pokémon in a respectful or humane manner, relying on force and cruelty instead to bend the wills of less pliable species. Such practices are abhorred, especially in the Drescher's homeland, but unfortunately significant proof never presented itself, at least nothing sufficient enough to warrant revoking training licenses, or confiscating Pokémon. It likely wasn't surprising that eventually the promotion of violence and cruelty would eventually lead to domestic problems. Likely the reason that Gustav Drescher, for having four sons, had not a single one that shared a mother between them. His far less careful manner in hiding his training 'activities' and the way he was training his older sons to think and act, not to mention his condescending, dismissive demeanor towards anyone not born with the Drescher name, easily driving the mothers of his children off.

Instructor Basic History

The fourth son of a talented and somewhat infamous battle master, Christof didn't know much about his mother, who was driven out of the home when he was three by an overbearing man with a superiority complex. It would have hardly been a surprise to those present at the time. Not that he could speculate much on the matter, knowing his father little better than he had known his mother. Gustav was often busy running official circuits, and dealing with the molding of his older sons.

The disconnect largely came with Christof's interests. Gustav worked with large, ominous, and brooding sorts, the ones that most would feel intimidated working with, and dealt with them in punitive often physical ways. To the point that there had been quite a few attempts to ban his father from further training and battling due to the all too correct suspicions about his training techniques, but nothing was ever proven substantially enough to successfully oust Drescher from official circuits. With no gentler, or more responsible influence on his older brothers, it was no surprise that they were eager to follow in the strong arming approach of their father, and agreed with his preferences in pokémon. Christof though was significantly younger than his brothers, and often found himself the perpetual third wheel, so he took to tending to his own entertainment and left the older members of the family to their devices.

Christof spent much of his time stealing opportunities to play, yes play with the pokémon his father and older brothers worked with, though obviously not when any of them were around. As a child he hated to see what amounted to his friends 'upset' by the older Drescher men, and was particularly loathed to see them physically punished (thus he learned early on, no matter how large and powerful a pokémon might look, there was always a way it could be hurt). Gustav, for his part was loathed to see his youngest son prove to be so weak willed and soft.

Maybe there was one good thing he did inherit from his father, and that would be his determination to do things his own way, regardless of what others thought. It took that sort of attitude to break the law after all; which was precisely what he did. The moment he was old enough to begin training if under the tutelage of a master, Christof put into motion a plan that had long been in the process of being staged, and got forged documents and letters to convince both his father, and an others he might need to that he, in fact, had been taken in under the tutelage of such a master. Though his father was not particularly pleased with him in general, he didn't hate him and was pleased enough that he was to begin training, and intended to help him select his first starter pokémon. Being the son of a master level trainer(controversial though he was ), he could have had his pick of the traditional starters, regardless of the region they traditionally hailed from. He could have 'any' pokémon, his father had stated. "Any?", Christof had carefully sought the other reaffirming this promise before demanding a young Eevee one of his older brothers had brought back with him to train his Houndour against. Chris couldn't hold it against Fang that his trainer was a jerk, and indeed Chris was fond enough of Fang, but he wouldn't leave the little, neglected, and not quite mature Eevee to be so abused. His father was vastly disapproving of his choice but Christof had pointedly reminded him that he had been promised 'any' pokémon he wanted, and the little Eevee had always been pointedly reaffirmed as not belonging to the brother that had brought him. The rare little pokémon, for his part was tougher than his cute exterior and naturally friendly disposition might have lead one to believe. He had toughened considerably, and though not yet able to stand up to the Houndour, would not have his spirit broken, and even snapped and growled at the trainers that were unkind to him. He had seemed to have no qualms with being claimed by Christof who had often come to bring him what tasty things he could smuggle off his own plate, and was always especially good to him.

Of course, contrary to the belief of his father, and any one who Chris had to prove himself too, he didn't actually have a master he studied under. This meant he had only his young Eevee and his own inexperienced skills as a trainer to see them through whatever dangers could come about in their adventures, and these usually meant going far off the beaten path. After all, it was easy to feign the existence of a tutor from time to time, but staying too close to heavily populated areas for too long increased the likelihood someone would discover the truth. Besides, Christof had always fancied the idea of venturing out and finding pokémon most trainers never had the chance to encounter on their own merit, so his course of action seemed clear.

Life was fairly simple for awhile, he began taking up notation and writing about the things he had observed and learned about the various pokémon he found in the wild, never really doing much capturing, other than procuring an Eevee here and there. Publishing wasn't really that difficult either, he simply continued to submit work with the endorsement of his fictitious 'master'. There was no age restrictions on being paid to write and sketch after all, and it left him time to train his pokémon, using his wits and what nature could provide to make up for his lack of formal battle centered training. However, it was through this particular activity that his little secret eventually came out. An aging master, Diakon Reimer, had read more than a few of the articles he had submitted and a few of his more involved works. Really, nothing too surprise, that was the point of being published after all. However, the old master was pretty clever, and the sort that had gained a wisdom that made it difficult to get anything past him. Overtime, he had started to piece together through the way things were worded, or various other seemingly insignificant details in his stories, notations, and observations that he began to suspect that this boy, and no the name Drescher certainly was not one he was ignorant of, might not actually be in the company of the master he was listed as studying under.

Reimer began to look into matters, keeping his suspicions to himself for the time being. It took some time, but he came to find that indeed, the master listed had taken no Christof Drescher under his wing, in point of fact, he had had no young trainer studying under him at all. The law on this matter was clear. The boy was not old enough yet to be training without a master guiding him certainly not out in the wilds, and evidence suggested, he'd been doing just that for quite some time. Authorities were alerted, and Reimer offered his assistance in narrowing down where the boy might resurface in the populated world once more. Eventually, Christof was caught. Now, that could have been that, but Reimer, he had a lot of pull in their part of the world, and he was curious about this Christof Drescher. Certainly it was no great surprise, a Drescher doing something the law forbid, but it wasn't exactly in line with his family's typical atrocities (alleged atrocities). So, he arranged to see the boy, while they were still investigating to see precisely what all the crimes he committed chalked up to, and when precisely they happened. Odd that the boy did not ask for his father, as was a minor's right to do in such cases, and in fact pointedly stated he didn't want the man involved. Well he could always be involved after the boy was cooperative. So, he went to have a chat with this boy, on his own.

Certainly most would not have recommended lenience after being subjected to Christof's cold, and distant approach to the men involved. However, Reimer had come to a few conclusions about him, and had convinced all involved that the best thing was to merely let things continue as they were. Christof had less then half a year before he was old enough that he could train without a master, it hardly made any sense to go through all the trouble of taking the boy's pokémon, filling out the reports, and enduring the humiliation of word of this spreading, that a kid at such a tender age (well at the beginning) had outwitted the system. Christof certainly couldn't have come up with a more favorable way things could have progressed from there, but part of the condition was that he remain under Reimer's care for the remaining handful of months that he was still underage. Reimer, who unbeknownst to Christof at the time, was an instructor at the Master's Academy had hoped to convince the boy to join the academy initially. However, dealing directly with Christof made it fairly clear that he would not likely be pleased to be so confined, after all the wilds had been his academy, no restrictions and no rules other than what his own well refined sense of discipline set for him. So, he didn't push the matter, and only asked that Christof remain in contact with him when time permitted in his travels.

Turned loose once more, life continued on in a fairly standard manner. He proceeded to find rarer pokémon to study, and managed to worm his way into more remote locations of the world. He started up breeding efforts when he was 15 but kept his progress slow given his lifestyle and what it meant for young, new to the world pokémon. When he was about 16, he ran into a slight problem, those that had been funding his expeditions, or buying the work they produced started to get pushy after he published 'When Legends are Reality', a book length text on various legendary pokémon he had been collecting data on over the years. Suddenly it became 'vital' that he disclose locations, something he tended to remain vague on, in order to prevent 'Gold Rush' situations with the pokémon that most needed to remain off the radar of most if not all trainers at large. Disclose locations, or quit publishing was the ultimatum, Christof chose the latter.

He had amassed a fair amount of money, but it was hardly enough to ensure he could dedicate enough of his time into breeding to make it a career, and be sure he would be alright until his legitimacy in the field was established. Even with a relatively rare pokémon specialty, he hadn't obtained any of the sorts of credentials that typically boosted a breeders reputation to get a decisive foot in the door. So, he decided to do something that would both earn him money quickly, and give him the exact sort of credentials he needed. He joined the official circuits, and did the whole gym leader battle thing. If Christof had grown up being used to human attention, perhaps the distrust and in some cases hatred his name brought him in the official circuits might have bothered him. Christof, however, had never come to care much of what people thought of him, so he persisted in making a name for himself, apart from his recent lineage and three siblings who had turned out little better than their father. However, earn a place he did, climbing the ranks to Master over the course of the nearly the next four years. In fairness, some of it was his skills as a trainer and his technique; however he would be the first to admit part of the reason for his rapid success was, for one, he started his battling career with already highly trained pokémon, and two while he had been training his pokémon he had been able to concentrate on really training his pokémon. Many trainers focusing on battling easily became consumed in training for the next gym, and catching as many different pokémon as they could. This resulted in most of their pokémon being jerked around in their training. The upcoming gym is rock, quick dump all pokémon that aren't water, grass or possibly ground for the next month, never mind where I am in their training. Or of course there was the dropping out pokémon because they were taking to long to train, or because a new cooler or fiercer looking pokémon was caught, or sheer boredom, not to mention most trainers didn't give themselves time to learn how to train a particular species, let along an individual. Oynx, Jigglypuff, Deerling, Magmar, all trained the same, toss them into a battle and see what happens. Ridiculous to his line of thinking. Even so it was easy to see the difference it made when a trainer worked till the point he was merely concerned with getting to the next battle, and simply continued his training because it was proper to do so, rather than rushing to the next gym or tournament and either sitting around fighting the small fries to try to get the pokémon read, or losing, and in the case of tournaments, likely having to wait up till a year for another chance.

Just when finally at the age of 20 he was able to get away from the circuit for a bit (nothing wrong with jumping back in for a tournament or two if things got tight), and was able to fully dedicate himself to his breeding efforts (which he had been continuing at a reasonably slow pace), an old friend got in contact with him. It seemed that Diakon Reimer had been following his career, keeping an eye on him as it were. It was then also, at that time that Reimer really discussed his situation at Master's Academy. He was getting ready to retire, and he needed someone to replace him as instructor. Friend or not, there were conditions to his joining the school, even for old Reimer. Conditions that Reimer found a bit amusing, but assured him they would not be a problem. He would be going, but on condition he could take all his pokémon, so he could continue his breeding, raising, and training of them.

He has been at the school two years now, and has seen the joining of another new teacher about a year ago. So far he has managed to keep himself mostly distant from his colleagues, working with them willingly, for the most part, but not really doing much by way of socializing. That never really was his way after all.

[Christof Drescher]

Familial Relationships

• Gustov Drescher: Father- Age 58
  
  Christof current doesn't have any contact with his father, and hasn't really reached out to him since he left home as a child. His father, similarly has made no attempt to contact Christof, though he still has no reason to think his father hates him per say. It's hard to tell, and frankly Christof doesn't care. His father is currently facing a possible trial in relation to his treatment of pokémon under his care, both currently and throughout his career. Depending on if he is successfully charged and on how many counts, he is facing guaranteed confiscation of his pokèmon, all proceeds gained from the training of his pokèmon (as this was his life's work, that means nearly if not all his possessions), and perhaps even a fair stint in prison. Obviously, as Gustov was a high standing master, who had been suspected of his crimes for sometime before they were finally able to find enough proof, this matter has made its fair share of headlines, and will likely continue to be newsworthy as things develop.
• Garrison Drescher: Brother- Deceased (would be 38)
  
  His eldest brother had been 16 at the time of his birth, so it is likely quite understandable that he didn't have much time for a baby brother at that point. Still, he was the brother that had once been most apt to pay young Christof some mind, occasionally bringing home something nice for his little brother. Even if it was rare it was appreciated. Being the eldest, he was most put upon to carry on the family legacy. A duty he took far too seriously as a true disciple of his father's teachings. A little over a year ago, his brother was killed by an enraged Gyarados he had been training, the pokèmon easily eviscerating his trainer with a single fang when it grabbed the man, likely with the intent to shake the life out of him. Christof, much to the outrage of his family, pulled strings to ensure the Gyarados was not put down, and in fact requested that his coworker Amadeus Faux be sought out, if not to take in the Pokèmon himself, to offer instruction and advice as to its rehabilitation.
• Berlyn Drescher: Brother- 36
  
  His middle brother, and quite likely the most irritating of his family members for him currently. 14 when he was born, Berlyn wasn't the sort to let the fact that he was supposed to be mature enough to know not to pick on a little kid. From the age of five until the left home, Berlyn would often tease him, and generally make what little time they encountered one another miserable. Berlyn is the brother that once kept Nitro for 'training' his Houndour (now evolved into Houndoom) Fang against. His manners have not improved much, having made a point to berate his brother's choice in working to spare the Gyarados that killed their eldest brother in person. He hasn't yet made an appearance in regards to their father's current situation, and Christof not doing an thing to help him.
• Kolten Drescher: Brother - 35
  
  His youngest older brother, 13 at the time of his birth, was mostly in the habit of ignoring his little brother, for all that they didn't really spend much time in each other's company anyway. Kolten had, on rare occasion expressed concern and a desire to protect his only little brother. Kolten was injured by accident during training when their father spooked a Nidoking, when delivering a jab to one of the soft places between the pokèmon's relatively tough exterior. Unfortunately, even after treatment the injury became infected, leaving Kolent permanently crippled from the middle back down. This occurred slightly less than a year ago, with Christof hearing of it only much later. The Nidoking was savagely put down by their father, and currently is one of the pokèmon being referenced by the prosecution of Gustov. Whether or not Christof would have reached out to Kolten, it was made clear that his brother was in a very dark place right now, and for his own good his current 'care givers' (Institution staff) are forbidding any and all contact with family members.

[Christof Drescher]

Pokèmon #1:

Name: Nitro
Species: Jolteon
Gender: Male

original artwork by TheJinxess, hosted on Deviante Art
Click to go to original page. Uploaded to prevent stealing bandwidth

Appearance

Height: 2'6"
Weight: 50 lbs

Nitro is on the smaller side of average for a Jolteon. His fur has no distinct differences in color, his eyes one of the standard violet colors for his species. 

Personality

Unusually standoffish for an evolutionary form of an Eevee, Nitro tends to be suspicious and unwelcoming towards most humans and pokèmon, other than those belonging to Christof. This pokèmon is possessive and quick to defend what is his, being incredibly possessive standing up to pokèmon much larger and more frightful than himself without hesitation.

History

An Eevee that originated from a pack in the Black Forest, he became separated from his family at a young age, and had the misfortune of being found by Christof's brother Berlyn. The still not matured Eevee spent his initial life among humans being subjected to violent training sessions opposite a Houndour. Even aside from this, he was given little food and kept in a cage. At least that was the majority of his experience with humans. Christof, himself still young, was the exception. This smaller human brought him tasty things, spoke kindly to him, and even snuck him out of his cage whenever he dared. Certainly this was cause for the then unnamed Nitro to bond with the human. When the day came that Christof made preparations to leave, he was claimed as the boy's first pokèmon, and given the name Nitro.

Nitro has been a constant companion and guardian to Christof since that day, and quickly took up the role of protector, not only with his human, but also with the pokèmon that joined their 'pack'. Nitro was actually the second Pokèmon of Christof's to evolve, shortly after Shattenblitz. Nitro was evolved in accordance with his being agreeable to it, when Christof had planned an expedition into an area rumored to be riddled with particularly aggressive water types, specifically Feraligatr, which were exceptionally rare to find in the wild, or so Christof had said. As a Jolteon, Nitro has found his speed especially useful in protecting his pack, and his trainer, a duty he takes with the utmost seriousness. With Shattenblitz as his second, he has been spending much of his time between training and taking part in instruction (since coming to the school obviously), keeping Christof's unevolved Eevee's from getting into to much trouble. Certainly that has become a slightly more difficult task since the arrival of a certain Vulpix.

Active Pokemon #2

Name: Cerberus

Species: Flareon

Gender: Male

Original artwork by chicken-stalker hosted on Deviant Art. 

Click to go to original page, Uploaded to prevent stealing bandwidth 

Appearance

Height: 3'
Weight: 57 lbs

Cerberus is on the larger side of average for a standard Flareon, his mostly red coat and blue eyes are also within the range of normal for his species. Being a 'working' pokèmon, Christof typically grooms his mane and tail such that it does not have that exaggerated overly poofy look that some show Flareon are often groomed to show off.

Personality

Playful and welcoming, Cerberus is the opposite of Nitro. He is especially fond of those that need a bit of coaxing to fell comfortable with playing. This friendly pokèmon, though social, does tend to focus his attention on one or a few playmates at a time, rather than flourishing in a mass.

History

Cerberus is one of Christof's more recently acquired pokèmon. Christof had actually found Cerberus and his pack on an jungle island surrounding an active volcano. Cerberus, still an Eevee at the time, had started to take an interest in the human that was watching himself and his pack of Eevees and yes Flareon. It hadn't occurred to Cerberus that it was odd that his family had no inclination to disappear well before the human could find any trace of them, as they normally would have, and he found not only was there this interesting human thing watching them, but this human thing came with other Eevee, as well as pokèmon he had not seen before, but understood that they, like the Flareon of his pack, had once been Eevee as well. While most of his pack continued on with business as usual, only occasionally acknowledging the human, this particular little Eevee kept wandering closer and closer, trying to figure him out, and the strange things he had with him. When he began hanging around, and showing a definite wistful interest in the things the human and his pokèmon ate, the human tossed food his way, and spoke softly too him. Perhaps his Christof (as Cerberus would later come to know him) had intended to add an Eevee to his team that day, perhaps he hadn't, but either way, Christof had come to realize quickly enough that the Eevee might do well with him, taken as he was by the human, and yes his pokemon as well. Cerberus has begun to spend his time in the company of Nitro, and Christof's other pokèmon, becoming more distant from his pack, in favor of this new pack. It was only natural that when the time came that Christof would leave, that he would take the Eevee with him.

Naming him Cerberus had been a simple matter for Christof. Similarly, and much to Cerberus' delight, when the time came that he felt the Eevee ready to evolve, the human did what he knew was best. Cerberus had come from a home that promoted Eevee to evolve into Flareon, his first family had consisted of Flareon, so it was, without thought of how many Flareon he already had compared to his other pokèmon numbers, that Christof did precisely as he had always planned. Cerberus is hardly the highest ranking among the other Flareon Christof trains, but he is a pokèmon that is good for getting along with just about anyone, and often takes it upon himself to encourage shier Eevees, or 'Eons to come out of their shell.

Coming to the school was a matter Cerberus took in stride, and soon found he liked the opportunity to find new playmates (even if he, of course, remained most loyal to Christof and his pokèmon). There is one pokèmon in particular he has found himself warming up too, a shy, dainty Ninetales by the name of Pele. She is, perhaps, one of his favorite friends so far, and it hasn't escaped his notice that she is a rather beautiful female.

Active Pokèmon #3

Name: Nephthys

Species: Vaporeon

Gender: Male

Original artwork by iRaynebow. Click to go to original page.
Uploaded to prevent stealing bandwidth

Appearance:

Height: 3'3"
Weight: 64 lbs

Average sized for a Vaporeon, Nephthys is the standard shades of blue for most Vaporeon, but has a purple dorsal ridge and violet eyes instead of the red eyes often seen in the species. Having evolved in a more temperate climate, his fur length is on the shorter side (as sometimes noted in Vaporeon originating in harsher environments) but is in enough quantity and quality that he doesn't require a warmer climate to be comfortable (as seen in tropical Vaporeon). His tail is scaled along its length rather than rubbery skinned, a clear indication that his evolution initiated inland, likely near fast flowing rivers.

Personality:

Nephthys loves attention and tends to be an affectionate pokèmon. Anyone offering free pats is sure to find a fan in Nephthys, however make no mistake, he loves his Christof and other fellow pokèmon under their trainer best.

History

Nephthys' history is mostly unremarkable, except perhaps the fact that he is one of the very few Pokèmon that Chris took out of the wild that was already evolved. Prior to Christof 'capturing' him, Nephthys had lived a pretty unremarkable life as Eevee trouncing about in the Northern reaches of Central Europe. Having been born and grown in an area riddled with river and various waterways, he, like many of his pack, evolved into a Vaporeon. It was at that point that Nephthys got twitchy feet, and set off on his own for a bit. Confronted by a wild Mightyena, Nepthys won the battle, but had been seriously injured in the process (well seriously for being out in the wild with no means of treatment). He was found by Nitro and Shattenblitz (both in their Evolved forms at that point)as well as Dew (A Glaceon of Christof's). Naturally the two brought the injured Pokèmon to their trainers attention, and Chris proceeded to tend the Vaporeon's injuries.

Chris had intended to allow him to go back to the wild. Later, as he came to know his trainer, Nephthys would come to know that Christof tried never to claim evolved Eevees from their natural environment. However, by that time Nephthys had become attached to the human and his pokèmon, and refused to leave what he had come to know as his new pack.

He has found he enjoys being at the school. There are many trainers that are willing to offer him scritches, and there is one in particular that he finds favorable (though not as favorable as his Christof). Though he keeps it to himself, at least when Nitro is near, the Vaporeon does hope that Christof will begin to warm up to this other trainer, who is also an instructor. He is quite certain the two of them are a good match for each other.

Active Pokèmon #4

Name: Aphrodite
Species: Espeon
Gender: Female

Appearance:

Height: 2'5"
Weight: 45 lbs

Petite, even for an Espeon, Aphrodite's coat is one of the typical shades, for her species. Her lavender, velvety fur is always well maintained, hugging her sleek, fluid form to emphasize the more elegant build Espeons possess when compared to Eevee and its other evolutionary forms.

Personality:

She tends to come across as lofty, often keeping a bit to herself, but Aphrodite is always keeping an eye on her 'family', and concerns herself greatly with their happiness and well being. Prim and proper, she can often also be seen to be meticulously tending to her own fur.

History:

Raised in a province of Eastern France to be a beautiful Espeon, Aphrodite has always been a very confident pokèmon. Here previous trainer had been quick to get her to evolve as it seemed she was destined to be a show pokèmon, a good profession to have an Espeon in, especially since her trainer specialized in pokèmon beauty contests. Aphrodite, however didn't care for it one bit. Sure she knew she was beautiful, and she had the confidence. The problem was she didn't care to have judges come around and feel they had the right to paw at her. No, she was not a happy Pokèmon, but she also wasn't the sort to grin and bare such treatment, nor would she shy away and hide herself. She had a tenancy to growl, or otherwise express her displeasure at said judges, behavior that didn't win her any points in competition.

Some time after he had been released from his time with Diakon Reimer, Christof had happened upon an outdoor showing while coming in to get supplies for his next journey. Taking an immediate interest in the not so happy looking Aphrodite, and seeing opportunity in the form of her equally frustrated trainer, the regal pokèmon had been present when the German teen had brought up a matter of bartering for her. Her trainer had made him an offer, clearly one that she never expected this young, somewhat scruffy looking (well to those who spent their whole lives gussying up to look good for shows ) 'boy' to be able to pull off... and yet there was no doubt in Aphrodite's mind that the trade would have been a desirable one. Her trainer wanted a Milotic for her, and had laughed a bit in the boy's face when he had proclaimed to her ("in German no less, imagine not knowing French, what sort of ruffian must he be" she would later be informed as her trainer chattered about the incident later in the boy's absence ) that he would indeed, have a Milotic for her by day's end. Christof had remained firm, and unmoved by her rude display, and that had been enough to silence her.

Later the German did indeed return, and the exchange was met, much to the shock but delight of her trainer. Not that she didn't continue to turn her nose up at what was from that moment on, Aphrodite's new trainer. It took the Espeon some time to warm up to Christof, imagining this boy to be brutish and entirely unbecoming a master for a delicate lady like herself. After all, her former trainer had had plenty to say about Germans. Apparently they were a different species? She really didn't get it, but she had heard plenty to know things would not be the same with this man. She wasn't completely wrong. Things were different, but she soon found that she preferred this. Having to work and train along side the other pokèmon gave her a deeper satisfaction with herself, and a more profound sense of self worth. Outdoors was a wonderful place as well, and perhaps what had surprised her at first, Christof honored who she was. The very 'lady' behavior had not been taught, refined possibly, but it had always been a part of her personality. Unlike her former mistress, he would go out of his way to respect that, always being sure his hands were pristine after doing work before he gave her attention, and though she was given important jobs and tasks, Christof would give her the least dirtying or laborious of the tasks available. Instead he let her use her wits and her psychic abilities to contribute, valuing her for her, and helping her work to change only those things that had to be changed.

The move to the school hardly bothers her. Aphrodite had settled into her new pack nicely, and is confident that, regardless of what their trainer decides to do with his life, he will always continue to both include her, making her an important part of the team, and at the same time, always allow her to be the lady that she is.

Active Pokemon #5

Name: Shattenblitz
Species: Umbereon
Gender: Male

Original artwork by ShiroTheWhiteWolf hosted on deviant art.

Appearance:

Height: 3'9"
Weight: 68 lbs

Large for an Umbreon, Shattenblitz tends to stand out just a bit from the rest of Chris' pokèmon as his largest regardless of form. He possesses the jet black short fur, and red eyes often found on Umbreon. However, his bands and markings are the less common silvery blue color rather than yellow.

Personality:

Nitro's second of sorts, Shattenblitz steps in to keep Chris' other pokèmon in line (usually the Eevees themselves). A bit aloof, he maintains a calm air about him, usually taking any situation in stride... Well, nearly any situation.

History:

Shattenblitz was the first Eevee Christof captured, the large, and rather territorial Eevee taking exception to the presence of Nitro on his turf. When it became clear that the Eevee would not accept Nitro's presence, and would continue to attempt to harass the 'intruder' and try to engage force him into battle, Christof decided enough was enough. It was more than a little surprising to the wild Eevee, who was particularly large for his species, that the almost runt-ish opponent bested him, and certainly he hadn't expected to be captured. That human just felt so much more... Pokèmon than human.

Once captured, it wasn't entirely surprising that Shattenblitz calmed significantly in regards to Nitro's presence. He did, however, become something of a rival at that point. Shattenblitz wanted to be stronger, better than Nitro, but they did, at least coexist successfully. Things didn't really change until after Shattenblitz evolved. How things changed, he certainly can't explain, he is, after all, a Pokèmon, not a human to try to analyze such things. However, being first to evolve suddenly didn't matter, and for a time, he pined for the time he and Nitro were on more equal footing. The newly evolved Umbereon had always been larger than the other pokèmon, but not by this much, and though Nitro continued to maintain his position as the 'top pokèmon' things just ... weren't the same.

When Nitro evolved, Shattenblitz was eager to make up for his time of being a source of dissidence, and quickly settled in to obey and assist the now Jolteon in managing the rest of their 'pack'. It wasn't until arriving at the school that the Umbereon found himself displeased with the way of things, but this time not displeased with Nitro. There is a new pokèmon that seems bent on getting the attention of the Jolteon, a Vulpix, who seems to have no lack for trying to shoulder into his pack. He isn't so sure he likes this pokèmon, who isn't even Christof's spending so much time around their Eevees... nor for spending so much time flirting with Nitro.

Active Pokèmon #6

Name: Chlori
Species: Leafeon
Gender: Female

Spring/Summer Appearance, and Fall/Winter Appearance respectively.

Appearance:

Height: 3'
Weight: 50 lbs

Chlori is slightly smaller than your average Leafeon, but doesn't have much to set her apart per say. Her leafy ears and tail are usually a darker shade of green, but do on occasion shift to have a reddened pigment when in environments with four seasons that are either experiencing the fall or winter cycle.

Personality:

Gentle and sweet, Chlori is a delicate pokèmon outside of battle. She enjoys quite games, and grooming to bond with others over rough games. Chlori is the most recent of Christof's Eevees to evolve and is still getting used to life as a Leafeon.

History:

Chlori is one of Christof's younger pokèmon, and is, in fact one of the pokèmon born from his breeding efforts prior to his officially becoming a breeder. Always a gentle and caring pokèmon, more likely to settle in for cuddles rather than instigating any rough housing. Christof's decision to evolve her into a Leafeon was certainly a simple one, as he noted just how much she enjoyed settling in with the plants. There really isn't much to tell about her history aside from that, as Chlori would consider her life enjoyable but not really eventful enough to talk about. Coming to the academy proved to be a change she enjoyed very much, and she will occasionally help comfort students, or find some way of secretly making their lives just a little bit easier.
