---- CHARACTER INFORMATION ----
Name: Sarah Florauna
Age: 27
Gender Identity: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Height: 5'3"
Occupation: Farmer/Greenhouse Assistant
Personality: Sarah is upbeat, optimistic, and always ready to work hard with a smile on her face and a williness to always look at the sunny side of life. She is very passionate about such things as plants and is very happy she gets to work in the farms and greenhouses to help grow food for the people of the ship. And flowers, if only to decorate the ship and make things more beautiful~. Though she's usually pretty quiet, and thus, doesn't usually speak unless spoken to, if one were to engage in a conversation with her about any of the above, she could talk for hours and hours.
On the other hand, she really doesn't like being called fat or just about any negative remark in regards to her appearance. She's a living example of how fat doesn't play fair, and that despite all the exercise she does, it doesn't really do too much to change that fact. For this reason, she tends to not go out of her way to talk to people very much, not wanting them to stare at her in disapproval. She is proud of the fact that at least she's healthy, though, and even tries to use her size to her advantage to try and excercise her muscles, too, especially when farming.
Her sense of fashion can be considered top-notch; as she not only figured out the right kind of hair spray that she wanted to use for her hair, but was able to come up with an outfit that makes someone her size look great. It's for this reason that she likes to design and sew outfits in her spare time, not just for herself, but for her family and friends, too.
Likes: Rocks, plants, identifying rocks and plants, people who work hard, are honest, and don't blow up the ship. Also, any flower in the Liliaceae family~.
Dislikes: Being called fat, being looked down upon, overly aggressive/rude people in general.
History: Just like everyone else on the Auroris, Sarah was born on the ship and has lived her whole life on it. From an early age, she showed a fascination for plants, rocks, and everything that one can find in large quantities on a terrestrial world but not as much on an entire spaceship. As a result, she knew early on, way before her 16th birthday, that she wanted to be in the Specialist faction and work as a farmer and a greenhouse assistant. She wasn't quite as excited about having Pokemon, though, especially when her brother handed her his reject Gabite who didn't really care much about her either.
Unfortunately, she was also painfully aware of how her figure was a lot larger than most people's, and couldn't fit into many of the main fashions avaliable at the time. Or whenever she tried to, they didn't turn out too well. Despite this, she managed to make a few friends as she grew up; just not quite as many as the average person would, whether it was because they didn't want to talk to her, she didn't want them to make fun of her, or both. It really wasn't until she started taking an interest in sewing thanks to her mother and realized that she could design outfits that worked for herself that she began to get some of her self-confidence back, and soon, even other people started to realize and appreciate her intellect and creativity. Even Kyumu started to respect her more at this point, and gave her the confidence to try and get two more Pokemon, who ended up appreciating her way more than Kyumu ever did.
Now, she continues to work for the ship while raising her three Pokemon, the best friends she ever had. (Well, Lilly and Igni mostly; Kyumu not so much.) She also is considering trying to find someone to marry so she can have a family, but so far, she hasn't had much success, though she remains somewhat optimistic. However, soon, her peaceful, day-to-day existence will soon be interrupted by the worst crisis the Auroris has ever seen...
Relationships:
Christopher Florauna - Father
Petunia Florauna - Mother
Ralph Florauna - Older brother
Additional Notes: Her last name, Florauna, is also the name of the species that Wildvine is in Ben 10.
---- POKEMON ----
Name: Venus
Gender: Female
Species: Venusaur
Nature: Hardy
Ability: Overgrow
Size: 6'3"
Attacks: Sleep Powder, Sludge Bomb, Vine Whip, Petal Dance
Personality: Venus tended to be a bit more battle oriented compared to the other Pokemon who helped out in the greenhouses, and would often become a bit restless whenever she gets bored. But she still cares very much about the Florauna family. And while she's understandably shocked by everything that just happened, including the fact that her original trainer might now be dead, she's still in denial and refuses to believe it, thinking that Sarah's parents still have to be alive. In the meantime, she's not going to let anything happen to Sarah.
Extras: Venus used to belong to Sarah's mother, Petunia Florauna, which was why Sarah ended up taking her out of the PC at the last second before the Pokemon Centers collapsed.
Name: Kyumu
Gender: Male
Species: Gabite
Nature: Serious
Ability: Rough Skin
Size: 4'7"
Attacks: Dragon Claw, Sand Tomb, Bulldoze, Roar
Personality: Kyumu loves battling, and is pretty good at it, too! Unfortunately, with the Auroris' policy of limiting the strength of Pokemon on board lest they blow a hole in the side of the ship, and with Sarah wanting to follow that rule as much as she can, she doesn't let him out of the PC a lot, much to his distain. She only uses him when someone challenges her to a battle, and there, he's happy to help, but all other times, he likely won't listen to Sarah very much, as he's still relatively bitter about her brother Ralph handing him over to Sarah just because Ralph wanted a better Pokemon on his team.
Extras: He was named after the Gallade hero in a certain sci-fi epic that Sarah loved to read.
(Lilly the Petili and Igni the Carbink are now dead. Unfortunately.)
