Description
,,,,;u;,,, I couldn't resist making a large fluffy character from my all time favourite pokemon.
Personal
Official Name: Helios, Son of Mauna
Nickname: Elio, Sunny
Species: Arcanine
The fire burning inside its body serves as the energy to fuel it as it runs great distances, and when doing so, it is said to run agilely as if on wings. A Pokémon that has long been admired for its beauty, it appears in many legends. Its magnificent bark conveys a sense of majesty, anyone hearing it can't help but grovel before it. Son of an Arcanine and Shiny Typhlosion, he's large, intensely fluffy, warm and his cream fur gleams due to the shiny genes, though he doesn't have the shiny coloration himself. Other notable feature is his heterochromia, giving him one bright blue eye and one warm brown one. Gender: Cis Male
Age: 23
Birthday: June 21st
Height: 7'00'' = 213 cm
Weight: 240 lbs = 80 kg

Looking for:
After months alone in the guild, these two fire types found friendship in eachother and one day relaxing on the roof of their guild, they found they had a lot more in common than they realised. With kindred dreams of exploration and a desire to learn from the other, Helios asked Jomei to join him in a team so that they could really spend more time together exploring and travelling. So began Team Sunrise!
Power
Type:
Ability: Flash Fire
Activates when user is hit by a damaging Fire-type move. Once activated, user’s Fire-type moves deal 1.5 times damage. While this ability is in effect, this Pokémon is immune to damage from Fire-type attacks and Fire-type Hidden Power
[When hit by a fire type move for the first time, his body will take damage but absorb the heat to ignite his own internal flame. From that point on his own body will emit intense heat, to the point of steaming the air around him, and no further fire type moves will hurt him until he spends some time to cool down. His own fire moves will also be stronger as his source of power is alight and blazing.]Moveset: 13 + 1 / 20 + 1 DM

Will-o-wisp
Iron Head
Helping Hand - 20 pp
The user assists an ally by boosting the power of that ally's attack.
[When seeing a person in need, Elio will not hesitate to lend them a hand - he'll give them his own energy through his positive words and physical contact, giving them the strength to keep fighting with vigor.]
Roar - 20 pp
The target is scared off, and a different Pokémon is dragged out. In the wild, this ends a battle against a single Pokémon.
[Taking a strong stance, Helios starts with a low growl before roaring out a bark so loud and primal that in the mountains it would echo for long distances. It's handy as a signal, to scare away dangerous ferals or stopping an argument, though over use hurts his throat.]
Extreme Speed - 5 pp
The user charges the target at blinding speed. This move always goes first.
[A move Elio doesn't often use unless there's danger, he channels his blazing energy into his legs and kicks off at an incredible strength to send himself charging forward - a great move to tackle a person out of danger in a split second]
Strength - 15 pp
The target is slugged with a punch thrown at maximum power.
[Pumping himself up with a surge of adrenaline and energy, Helios gets a flood of strength throughout his body for a short amount of time. With this power he can send an all-mighty punch, but also throw, tackle, pin or lift anyone or thing with power strong enough to move huge huge boulders.]
Thunder Fang - 15 pp
The user bites with electrified fangs. This may also make the target flinch or leave it with paralysis.
[Channeling his usually explosive and powerful fiery energy into a pure and intense form of static and sparks, it conducts through his bones and fangs and he chomps down on his target, needing that physical connection to electrify his foe]
Reversal - 15 pp
An all-out attack that becomes more powerful the less HP the user has.
[With each injury and ache Helios feels, he channels the pain and fatigue into a form of adrenaline, manifesting pure extra energy to attack his foes with unnatural strength.]
Dragon Pulse - 10 pp
The target is attacked with a shock wave generated by the user's gaping mouth.
[Building up intense pressure and energy into his chest, he charges up and releases a powerful roaring bark of sound that warps the air and ripples it with pure draconic force.]
Sunny Day - 5 pp
The user intensifies the sun for five turns, powering up Fire-type moves. It lowers the power of Water-type moves.
[Howling at the sun, Helios draws the energy from the pure light and heat of the sun and intensifies the warmth of the immediate radius, to give all firey attacks extra strength.]
Flamethrower - 10 pp
The target is scorched with an intense blast of fire. This may also leave the target with a burn
[Intensifying the blazing fire inside him at all times, he breaths forth a powerful channel of flames from his mouth - a flashy display of raw power or good for just starting a roaring campfire.]
Flame Charge - 20 pp
Cloaking itself in flame, the user attacks. Then, building up more power, the user raises its Speed stat.
[The fire within explodes and spreads across his glorious fur, setting him alight before charging at his target with the energy pumping speed and power into every step.]
Burn Up - Egg move - Typhlosion mother - 5 pp
To inflict massive damage, the user burns itself out. After using this move, the user will no longer be Fire type.
[A last resort move, Helios engulfs himself in the hottest of flames and attacks with all his fiery heart. Once the fire goes out though, he's left burnt and his internal flame is put out - losing that fire typing.]

Personality:
+Brave +Curious +Loving +Optimistic +Gentle || ~Enduring ~Expressive ~Sentimental || -Over-Bearing -Reckless -Gullible -Stubborn -Emotional
Meeting Helios can sometimes be like coming face to face with a literal pocket of sunshine - he's cheerful, large, warm and isn't afraid to share it with everyone. He tries his darn best to be everyone's friend and to do more good than harm, trying each day to have a positive influence on those around him. Elio tries his best to be considerate of others, not everyone appreciates the sunny attitude and full on care he might give, but he can find it hard tone himself down, he just needs to force that happiness he's feeling onto others. He's not oblivious to other's states though, he knows interactions require gentle touches sometimes and has worked well with ferals in the past because of this - but Elio more often than not impulsively acts on his good nature before realising it might not be the best course of action. Nosing his way into someone's business if they look down, automatically picking someone up for a hug, acting on his heart instead of his mind is his life style.
But for those who appreciate his bright expressive heart on sleeve style of life, he'll be so affectionate. Elio loves being touched, petted and groomed due to having so much fur, though he tries to be cautious in return especially to smaller pokemon just because he doesn't want to hurt anyone by accident. Why is he so desperate to be friends with everyone? It's most likely because he believes everyone, every single person has the ability to do good - a chance for redemption even time after time. He wants to understand people, and for others to understand him, and he can be stubborn in this idea. In this way he is very forgiving, but also quite gullible. In his hopes for others to do good, he can be easily manipulated and tricked. The extent to how far isn't known yet, but he'll often take people at face-value, assuming they mean what they say and not prying further. Suspicion and doubt are the last things in his mind, he's just so darn trusting, he forgets people are just as likely to cause hurt on purpose as wild ferals are and even then, he can't blame wild ferals for lashing out either.
Helios has many sides to him as most people do, but they all come from his warm firey heart. He's a very expressive, heart-on-sleeve sort of guy because his emotions completely rule his state. He can't hide how he's feeling and when upset or emotionally hurt, it can physically wreck him too. He tries to be so cheerful and positive most days because those days when something can get him down can have him moping around like a sad dog. Maybe he's so trusting of others because he's just so open himself, you'll never be guessing what Helios is thinking. With how strong his heart is, it's no surprise Helios is also rather sentimental. He forms very strong bonds with whatever makes him feel, from his family, from special gifts, to certain places or memories. He treasures a lot and keeps many little possessions to hold close when he needs it, the people he's attached to, the memories he makes, they all matter deeply and it'd be hard to convince him to let go. It's what balances his curious nature to go far and see the beautiful world, because he's so very attached to what he already has as well. It's a conflict he's tried to balance most his life.
From a soft gentle giant who loves to sing to feral birds and sleep in warm sunlight with his friends when in a happy, stress free environment, the same guy who would cry at listening to beautiful music or seeing flowers getting trampled for no reason, is also a character who will charge into fire and hell without a second thought, stand bravely in the face of danger, bare his fangs and roar. Just dare it to hurt anything he cares about. Rushing into danger, he never cowers at taking on enemies or putting himself in the firing range, he thinks actions mean everything when it comes to making decisions and would rather leap head first into doing something without information or back up then wait for more time or information. If anyone gets hurt or something goes wrong, it's because he didn't act fast enough, didn't train himself hard enough instead of thinking that maybe planning around said event could've helped. He's always prepared to take a hit for someone else, and can be painfully overly protective in his need to make sure no one else gets hurt. Even if someone he was trying to help asked him to stop, or he's underestimating their abilities to look after themselves, he'd rather put himself in the way of someone's fight then take the chance they might get hurt. In this way he can easily overwork himself and become very stressed at taking inaction. Waiting around doing nothing when there's something happening elsewhere? When people 'might' be in trouble? He can't do it or will and complain and worry the entire time.
It can be almost frustrating in his stubbornness if he thinks he's doing the 'right thing'. Elio can take plenty of physical punishment and keep going as long as there is a reason to fight, recklessly so if he thinks it's the right thing to do. Sit down and rest? Take a break or maybe let someone else handle it? No thanks, he'll keep pushing himself past his limits because his hotheaded heart and mind won't let others try to handle things alone, he /has/ to be there and doesn't see the problem in hurting himself further as a result. He'll be there if anyone else is, by their side without a hesitation - there's little he actually fears aside from losing others, so usual caution and safety can pass him by if he thinks the right path is instant action over strategy and patience. He values strength and endurance highly, not just in the physical sense but in the choice to take the 'right' path over the easy, in the ability to keep going no matter what, that is strength to him. And he has a hard time being told otherwise.

Very Brief History:
-Grew up in a nomadic mountain clan, son of the Chief a shiny Typhlosion woman called Mauna and a gentle Arcanine called Uri
-He was raised on beliefs of karma, reincarnation and by his mother that he needed to be strong to survive and protect what he cared about
-She wanted him to grow up to be Chief one day, so he needed to be strong, while his father just insisted strength was choosing to do what was right
-As he grew up, he gained three younger siblings, all cynderquils, who he helped raised with his mother and father
-At 9, his father Uri died in a rockslide, leaving his mother emotionally distant and Elio with three younger siblings to help look after alongside training
-Continued training with his mother, learning about his clan and working with the ferals, got a Mudsbray steed called Kelpsy
-Evolved at 15, Mother found a new man in the Clan's Healer, a Nidoking called Erite
-Allowed more independence at 16 to train on his own, especially as his mother gave birth to Nidoran triplets
-Got a Phanpy girlfriend, Peonie, they went adventuring together, craving life outside the Clan
-On these adventures they met with a few mountain Rangers who apparently looked over this mountain range and forest, keeping the forest and people alike safe
-A year later they broke up on good terms, Peonie wanted to go explore the world and Helios didn't want to leave his family like that
-But she did encourage to follow his heart and join the Rangers, he wanted to do good, help people from all walks of life and see what was outside of the Clan, without fully leaving
-It was too far for his mother's liking though, she forbid it, he was supposed to lead after her
-They were both stubborn and after their fight, Helios packed and left that night with his Mudsdale
-Signed up as soon as he could, meeting the Rangers, including a Zangoose, Zipper, who he later started dating
-Spent over two years happily working here, helping people, ferals, looking after the forest
-Disaster happened, his Mudsdale attacked and ran off, sheltered from the disaster with Zipper
-Sought out his Clan, all mostly alive but their way of life ruined without the ferals and safety of the mountain
-Had to quit the Rangers and say good bye to Zipper to help look after his family and re-establish the clan's new life
-Set up a new small village at the foot of the mountain, farming, hunting, foraging and learning to trade with nearby villages/towns
-Time passed, a ranger visited to tell Helios about Everstone guild, thinking he'd be perfect for it, but Helios still felt too guilty to leave his family again
-The snowstorm hit months later, and his ranger radio crackled to life just enough to hear other rangers requesting help
-With no hesitation, he ran out into the storm with his speed and flames, making his way to the outpost to find a tree had fallen on it and under attack from a feral
-He fought the feral Rhydon despite the disadvantage, giving his friends time to help the ranger trapped in the shack
-The rhydon's earthquake however made the shack fall in however, Helios using his extreme speed to get in the way to hold it up
-Fortunately his Mother charged in after him to fight the Rhydon before it attacked again, allowing them to rescue the last guy and get back to the clan safely
-That night the ranger raised the idea of him joining the Guild again, and while he at first said no, Mauna walked in and said he should do it if he wanted to.
-So with her blessing and eager to help people, Helios set off for Everstone Guild

Trivia
Beliefs:
The Everfall Clan follow no single Legendary or deity, but believe that life is an unending cycle, that death only leads to reincarnation, that good actions lead to more good in the world while bad fortune will always follow those who created it, and that the Legendary pokemon were just normal pokemon who managed to break from the cycle of reincarnation by ascending. How Legendaries 'ascended' varies from story to story however, so while some believe it's achieved through doing endless good or some final heroic act, others think its achieving the strength and power of a legendary while mortal. Others think it's just when you've lived enough lives to realise the truth of the world. Helios likes to believe that the Legendaries got their status from doing a heroic act that proved they were both good and strong enough to use the power bestowed upon them. He heartily believes in everything else as well, striving to do good and follow the golden rule of only do what you would do to yourself.
Other:
- Helios loves cute things so so much - babies, plushies, small pokemon and ferals, anything dainty or decorated he loves it all
- Secretly wishes when he dies, he'll come back as a Skitty or equally small cute pokemon in his next life
- Growing up in the mountains and nature, especially during long days as a ranger, he loved listening to feral bird song and even learnt to mimic some with whistles
- His big rough paws are great for climbing and hauling ropes - not delicate tasks like braiding fur which he's rather upset about really
- His clan didn't write down much, they live on word of mouth and passing stories, he only began to read as a Ranger in his spare time and can't write all too well.
- Part of his Clan's culture is to choose which parent's name you take as your identifier at age 12 - with his father dead and his mother the chief, his choice was pressured
- Helios was very good with ferals pre-disaster, he could ride, handle and calm them - as well as kill them, skin, prepare and tan the hide as he learnt to do in his clan
- As seen in his app art, he's rather large and fluffy and hasn't found many tops that work well - at most he has a wrap/poncho or sleeveless jacket but he's warm enough without
- Elio understands he's rather big to the average mon, he tries very hard to be gentle with everyone he interacts with and to take up less space when he's aware its an issue
- On the other hand though, he adores people getting into his space, touching him, playing with his fur, sitting or lying on him - with many siblings and no personal boundaries, nothing's too much to be considered for this boy.
