» Name: Maxie

» Gender: Female
» Species: #303 Mawile, the Deceiver Pokemon
» Affiliation: None

» Personality: Generally a logical thinker, and tends to respond to things ceasing to make sense with either stunned silence (I...what?) or long, angry tirades (Why are there Croagunk in the desert, it makes no sense. They're amphibious wouldn't they dry out?! No, I will not calm down, this is completely ridiculous! How does this even make sense...) In spite of this, she generally has a good sense of humor, once the initial shock has worn off.

she is very well-read, and has spent a lot of time studying other famous explorers. As a result, most of what she knows about exploring comes from book and hearsay rather than personal experience, leaving her with a very romanticized view of what to expect. To put it more simply, she is enamored with the idea of being an explorer but has never actually done it before.

Sort of a blunt personality, and loves giving advice. She often fails to notice that her help is not always wanted, or that she can come across as somewhat finger-pointy

» Likes: Since she was very young, she has enjoyed reading and rock-collecting as quiet activities that allow her to temporarily escape the noise and crowds of the central part of the caves where she was raised. She also likes to sing but is not very good at it. Silly spontaneous couplets echoing off the walls of the cave were an unfortunate reality of her early childhood, and silly spontaneous couplets are still an unfortunate reality of spending time with her now. She also likes to eat, and essentially possessing two mouths to feed has left her with both a large appetite and a rather discerning palette. Sweets and Spicy food are her favorite, but she likes most strong flavors indiscriminately. Unrepentant pun enthusiast.Seriously, do not get her started. Seriously.

» Dislikes: She was raised to believe that deliberately betraying another's trust is as low as a pokemon can sink, and therefore hates liars, double-dealers, backstabbers,  and dishonest shopkeepers. It has also been said that she hates the color orange, and having grown up in the desert, she's seen enough yellow-orange-brown to last three lifetimes. She also hates being manipulated. Wile very few people would enjoy such a thing, one must note that Maxi thinks of herself as more clever and experienced than she is; too clever, in fact, to fall for such petty tricks, so when she inevitably does, it's an especially bad blow to her ego. On a lighter note, she rather dislikes Chesto berries on account of their tough skins and lack of flavor. She is also uncomfortable in humidity, mainly due to being unused to it.

» History: She was hatched and raised in the deserts east of Grassveil, in a cave-dwelling colony of Mawile and other desert Pokemon. She had grown up hearing stories about the brave-slash-foolish adventurers from the west who would come to the desert to try and discover its secrets, an later, reading about famous explorers from around the world. She has long nursed a desire to travel the world and be like the daring, noble, and intrepid explorers she's read so much about. While the desert may have a certain aura of peril and mystique from an outsider's point of view, from the perspective of one who has lived there their whole life, it's about as exciting as any other scorching, miles-wide sand pit one might find, (which is to say not very exciting at all, now is it?) which has only increased her desire to leave. Finally, able to bear it no longer, Maxie scrounged up some traveling funds, left her home and made her way to the explorer's guild in Grassveil.

» Other: The Jaw on the back of her head appears to have a mind of its own, and she has been known to call it "Gilbert"
