Hello all! I'm looking to elaborate more on the venipede character Lennox's plot, and so I'm looking for threads and plans with other characters for him!
A little information on Lennox: He's a highly emotionally-motivated character. He grew up in a situation of abuse in a family was struggling to get by, and as he was struggling himself he was often denied attention or ridiculed. He was an outlet for his family members, essentially. He didn't get a chance to form the same attachments that the other pokemon around him did, and seeing this made him feel lacking. As a result of this and the harsh training his family demanded, he seeks to get stronger to compensate for what he doesn't have. He's very much a spin on the "hard on the outside, softie on the inside" male trope. He's not especially bright when it comes to knowledge due to a slight learning disability (a dyslexia/dyscalculia equivalent) and lack of a proper education. Despite this, he's very emotionally aware and can read social cues and motivations quite well. He's still socially stunted, however, so he may not always know what to do with this information and often gets himself into shenanigans x'D
I'll cut it off at the basics for now, to avoid going on forever and ever. As for plans, his future is pretty open. My eventual goal is to have him join the Blacktooth Kingdom, as you may or may not be aware, but I'm still looking to flesh out what gets him there and who he meets along the way so that's still a bit of a far-off goal, so any suggestion is a good suggestion! In terms of starting points, he's really just looking to move to the mountains right now, so that could provide some interesting situations where he gets
lost with guided there with other characters! As mentioned he's also a bit of a softie, so he'd likely be swayed by innocent (
but definitely not hugs. Don't even try hugs. Well, I mean, unless you really want to; I couldn't just turn down a kindness like that), so if you've got a character who needs some help perhaps he could lend a.... stubby... leg... thing! These are just obvious suggestions I can think of off the top of my head as examples, I'm open to anything ^^
(He's also very close to evolving so that may slightly be a motivating factor as well but not as much /S H O T
Although that does open up the potential for something like a training thread or maybe even a rivalry as well, if you've got a character who's also looking to evolve xD)
You can click on this bug to see his post in my records! You can see his original bio by clicking on the image provided there xD
If you've got any ideas or you just want to do a thread, feel free to let me know here or in my PMs! You can also click on this bug to go to a bookkeeping PiratePad I've set up if you want to discuss it with me live! (I recommend leaving a bump post here if you go there so I know you're looking for me ^^)
Thanks for your time! ^^

Ps: If Lennox doesn't look like your thing but you'd still like to do a thread with me, Here's some other nuggets you can click on that will take you to characters I'm running side plots with now/planning to run more plots with in the future! (Note: Appearances may vary from the provided sprite b/c I'm a dye addict /S H O T)
Adrol Drake the Princely Snivy (Albino)
Chiyako the Musical Purrloin
Simon the Neighborly Antichrist
Astir the Brain-Damaged Dratini
Lincoln the Riolu and Mercury the Fennekin are open as well, but are both embroiled pretty deeply in big parts of their character arcs so they're a bit consumed plot-wise x'D
Cecíl the Petilil is currently getting drunk.
