» Personality:

Rui is quite timid and struggles to form connections with people upon first meeting them. He prefers to keep to things that he’s comfortable with, so new people are intimidating. What if he says something wrong, or does the wrong thing? It’s easier to run away than it is to take the initiative to get to know them. Because of this, when others are kind to him, or try and get to know him, Rui can get attached pretty quickly.

Preferring not to take risks, Rui tends to steer clear of things that are unknown and scary. If it’s out of his comfort zone, he’ll do his best to avoid it. He very much lives life at his own pace. He’ll do the things he has to, but he would much rather be napping in the afternoon than doing anything strenuous. He’s not very strong in the first place.

That said, Rui treasures his family and friends and would do anything for the people he cares about - even things that he’d usually avoid. Once someone has wormed their way into Rui’s heart, it’s very hard for him to let go. Although he’s very unsure of himself when it comes to personal interactions, if he thinks someone needs help and it’s within his power to do so, he’ll try his best to do what he can.

Somewhat naive, Rui tends to believe the best in everyone. Why would someone be stealing if they didn’t need to? Isn’t it easier to just not be mean, than it is to be mean? For him it’s hard to imagine that people would do shitty things purely to be an asshole. Although this mindset allows Rui to forgive easily, it also sets him up for disappointment if others continue to act in ways that he might not agree with.

Rui and his family are not very well off and so he has learned to be incredibly frugal when it comes to money. He doesn’t like to spend needlessly and is content to make do with what he has. However Grima Outpost is not the nicest place to live and the smog in the surrounding area can often make people ill. Rui aims to earn enough money working at Cafe Sawsbuck to afford a better place for his family to live. As a result, he can be more easily convinced into doing things if there is some monetary gain involved.

» Likes:

Napping
Rui likes all things cosy and comfortable: the best conditions for a good nap. He has a terrible ability to fall asleep almost anywhere, although he prefers somewhere warm and safe. Cosy blankets, warm sunlight, the soft fluff of his sister’s wool coat. Rui could happily curl up anywhere these are present and be asleep within minutes.

Unfortunately, Rui’s love for sleep and comfort can sometimes cause him to be late for work at the cafe. He’s very likely to wake up in the morning, only to roll over and go straight back to sleep. Over time Rui has mastered the art of the lie in, able to stay in bed as long as possible and still get to work just on time. It’s a testament to his luck that it works out.

Friends
Working at the cafe was intimidating to begin with, but over time he’s grown to enjoy the company of his Salandit co-worker, Evelyn. He feels at ease around her. She’s confident, unlike Rui, and he admires the everyday fearlessness that allows her to talk to new customers without faltering.

Though Rui’s quadrupedal body is not well suited to a kitchen, he and Eve sometimes delight in baking the cafe’s sweet treats together. However, their shared sweet tooth is a terrible enabler. When only four cookies from a batch designed to make twenty actually reach the oven, perhaps it would be better for the customers if someone supervised them.

It’s hard to make friends somewhere as lawless as Grima Outpost. Rui is very grateful he has Eve.

Rui was also once close with a Pichu named Josie who attended Yua’s little school sessions for local Grima Outpost children. He has fond memories of him, although he hasn’t seen him since Yua grew ill.

Family
Yua and Rika have always been there for Rui. They are a close knit family and Rui cares for them immensely.

Yua does her best for her children despite their current living circumstances. She wants them to live life to the fullest, and encourages them both to pursue the things they are interested in. Supportive of one another, Rika and Rui help out Yua in turn, cooking meals and doing dishes to the best of their ability so that she doesn’t always have to.

As siblings, Rika and Rui know each other well. Rui feels comfortable talking to Rika about most things and will often confide in her things he would not tell others. Rika is highly protective of her little brother and would very quickly turn on someone if they harmed him. She is much more outgoing than Rui and he looks up to her similar to how he admires Evelyn’s confidence. Sometimes the two remind Rui of each other.

Flowers
Full of colour and life, and beautiful too - Rui loves flowers. They have the ability to brighten his day and help when he is stressed. A sunny meadow full of flowers would be Rui’s ideal place to spend time.

Grima Outpost and the surrounding area of Venen Gulch are very barren when it comes to plantlife. It's not empty, but it's not colourful. The few buds that manage to survive in these conditions are all the sweeter as a result. To Rui, it's almost hopeful to see each delicate flower sprouting against all odds.

Despite his love for plants, Rui only knows a little about gardening. He considers it a pleasant and peaceful pastime and it’s likely he would indulge in it more if he lived anywhere else.

Yua once told Rui that plants grow better when you sing to them. Though he's not confident enough to do so in front of people, sometimes he'll sing or hum to growing plants when he's alone. Maybe it'll help them!

Miscellaneous Likes
  • Sweets
  • Reading
  • Fluffy things

» Dislikes:

Strenuous Activities
Despite being a sturdy species like Skiddo, Rui is not very strong and generally does not enjoy exerting himself. He would much rather do things that don’t require physical exertion or work, such as reading or napping, than anything particularly strenuous. As a result he tends to avoid things that sound exhausting unless there is a good reason to do it.

Rui already sleeps a lot, but when he is physically exhausted he is prone to sleeping for even longer periods of time. After a day of particularly strenuous work he’s likely to still be found sleeping a good fourteen hours later.

Horror / Scary Stories
Although Rui enjoys reading, he is not very good with the horror genre or anything particularly spooky. The sorts of stories that people tell around campfires at night to freak each other out would have Rui hiding under blankets, or lingering behind people he trusts, just so he feels a little bit safer. He is very easily spooked and pretty squeamish when it comes to blood and injury, so anything that touches on these kinds of subjects he prefers to steer clear of.

Being Woken Early
Although generally mild mannered, being woken before he’s slept enough is one of the few things that can put Rui in a bit of an irritable mood. It doesn’t happen often though - he usually sleeps too much rather than not enough.

Miscellaneous Dislikes
  • Bitter food and drink

» History:

Rui was born in Grima Outpost, his parents having moved there at some point previous to his birth. Rui’s father left when he was younger, leaving his mother, Yua, the only one to care for him and his older sister Rika. Although Grima isn’t the most pleasant of locales, it’s all that Rui’s known for most of his life. The town plays host to many criminals, and a layer of smog permanently covers it, but there are still some good pokemon living there too.

Yua volunteered as a teacher for some of the children in the area. Originally from a larger town, Yua had memories of her own time at school in her youth and started organising small classes once a week when Rika was young so that she might have a similar experience. She would only teach five or six children at a time, but Yua aimed to teach essential skills the students might need later in life, such as math, reading and writing. Eventually Rui attended these classes too and made a friend; a Pichu named Josie. Although Rui had always struggled to connect with people, finding first meetings intimidating, Josie was kind to him and the two were close for a while.

Eventually, living in Grima Outpost began to affect Yua’s health; the poisonous smog in the area made her ill. She had to stop teaching to focus on her recovery. Rui and Rika, concerned for their mother, both searched for jobs. Their aim was to raise funds to help her with her illness and eventually be able to afford to move somewhere else where the smog would no longer affect her.

Rui got a job at Cafe Sawsbuck, which, unbeknownst to him, is a front for a local criminal gang by the name of Desert Rose. He met and befriended Evelyn here. To Rui, Evelyn is a good friend and colleague, but Evelyn is also a member of Desert Rose.

With the end of the classes and his focus on his new cafe job, Rui hasn’t seen Josie for a while.

---

Throughout his life, Rui has received odd visions after touching things. They are usually mundane things like seeing a memory of something Yua said a while ago, or seeing a vision of Rika rushing to salvage a burnt meal she tried to make. He finds these visions odd, but just something he can shrug off and move on from. Probably the most memorable vision Rui has had was a vision of his mother falling ill, months before it happened. It was only when she fell ill, just as he had seen in that vision, that Rui realised the odd flashes of events he kept getting had never once been inaccurate. He takes them a little more seriously now.

These visions are the result of Rui’s dimensional scream ability, however Rui himself does not know this.

» Other:
He has no attacking moves on purpose.
Rui is smaller than your average Skiddo, more akin in size to a Mareep. His growth was stunted due to the smog in and around Grima and he’s a bit of a weakling.

» Notes for Mods:
  • Cafe Sawsbuck is a RP-only shop and so should not require a shop application.
  • I listed smaller likes/dislikes for clarity but they’re all touched on in the larger paragraphs.
  • TM Rest was purchased from Venusian and I purchased TM Sunny Day from my own store.
  • I already removed the extra 5k cost needed for a shiny ^^
