Hiroshi

First Appearence: Chapter 0: Prelude

Birthday and Age: Generally unknown, 18 years old

Height and Weight: 5' 11", 150 lbs.

Hair Color: Messy, choppy black hair with foot and a half long Umbreon ears in place of human ears

Eye Color: Crimson

Clothing: Varies. Usually wears a bandana to conceal his ears and baggy pants to conceal his tail.

Accessories: None to note.

Personality: Generally quiet and tacturn, Hiroshi is always thinking. He often plans several steps ahead, which regretably makes him rather short sighted. He is fiercely loyal and fatalistic, always looking for the next exciting thing.

Pokemon
None. Hiroshi finds training cruel and immoral. He'd be better suited to being a Pokemon Ranger.

Badges: None. He's not even a registered trainer.

Family: Apparently had a mother who sold him to May as an experiment. Her fate is unknown, but his name was given by her.

Known Backstory

Hiroshi was sold as an experiment as an infant. He was left in a coma for four years as he struggled to assimilate the Umbreon DNA he was injected with. Out of ten such experiment children, he was the lone survivor. He stablilized around five and was awakened by May.

For five blissful years, Hiroshi lived like a brother to Lily and Chris. He never questioned why he never when to school, why he was a morph, or why he could never see the Professor. He was a good-natured, simple child. His thought process was much like a pokemon's at this state.

Things began to change as the Professor started to die. Chris grew jealous of all the attention Hiroshi received and often would refuse to talk to him. Hiroshi didn't understand why things were falling apart.

Finally, the professor died. May lost it, becoming a cruel woman hell bent on reviving her husband. Hiroshi began intense training to make him a battling machine. His human mind grew through making sharp decisions in battle. He could strategize and search out weak points quickly, making him quite the battler.

However, all this training was not without repercussions. Hiroshi felt like he was being punished for some wrong and withdrew from other people. He closely bonded with the pokemon that gave him his DNA - a female Umbreon named Senko. He began to treat her like a mother and he loves her dearly. Eight years of being trained and beaten has left him cynical and faalistic - he is not afraid of death. He is only afraid of being alone.

Lily is the second child of May and Ryan. Her father loved her dearly and often called her his "little May". She bears a striking resemblance to her mother, albeit the hazel eyes of her father. She loved and was loved deeply.

Hiroshi has always been around as long as she can remember. She never thought he was any different. She bonded strongly with her brother and "Hiro-chan". They were, and are, very protective of her. Her childhood is aptly decribed as happy.

She began to feel a sense of unease as her father grew sicker. She began to question why Hiroshi wore a tracking collar and why he couldn't leave the lab. As her brother grew jealous of Hiroshi, she grew defensive. She would cry all the time because the two boys fought.

Her life shifted drastically after her father died. Hiroshi became "a thing". May told her to leave him alone, but she couldn't. She was quite devoted, and has cared for him these past eight years.

The way she views the world has recently changed.

May

First Appearence: Chapter 0: Prelude

Birthday and Age: December 30th, 39 years old

Height and Weight: 5'10", unnaturally, sickly thin

Hair Color: Pale blonde and waist length

Eye Color: Ocean blue

Clothing: Usually wears kimonos because she is so sickly

Accessories: None

Personality: Cold and cruel with only one goal in mind. Nothing else matters to her, so she pays no attention anything else. She sometimes goes from sickly sweet to hideously cruel.

Pokemon
She owns a few of the pokemon her husband left behind.

Badges: None, as she was never a true trainer.

Family: Estranged parents, Chris, Lily

Known Backstory

May grew up in Eterna City. She was always an odd child, preferring to be absolutely silent and showing no true interest in the world around her. She lived with her parents, never becoming a trainer, wandering the streets at all hours of the night. The local children called her the crazy girl.

When she was sixteen years old she took to haunting the local grocery store. She liked to people watch, even if they ignored her completely. But one day, everything changed. One day, a 36 year old man named Professor Ryan noticed her and called her interesting.

He visited her often after that. He was a scientist that loved to study strange things, and she was certainly strange. She began to take interest in him for the first time in her life.

Her parents disapproved of this relationship, naturally. After all, it was simply scandalous that their 16 year old daughter stayed for weeks at a time with a man twenty years older than her. When they forbade her to see him, she simply got pregnant. That settled the matter quickly.

They were married and lived together in a house along the northern edge of Eterna Forest. She took a deep interest in the genetic work he did and often perused his notes after he was done for the day. She grew close to Ryuji, a young lab assistant of her husband. At the time, she was a bright, almost cheerful woman.

She gave birth to Chris shortly after her marriage, and Lily followed four years later. She was happy, but...she couldn't help feeling uneasy. Ryan, after all, was 41 by the time Lily was born, and he wasn't exactly a healthy man.

She wondered - what would she do if he died? How would she live without the man who gave her life?

This worry fueled her obsession. She begged Ryuji to help her, eventually wearing him down. She paid for ten infants who no one would care if they died and got to work. Nine died - Hiroshi survived.

She saw Hiroshi as her savior. He would make everything better. She raised him like a son, often favoring him over her own children. Her children became jealous, but she never noticed.

She was 31 when Ryan died at the age of 51. A disease wasted him away slowly for years until it claimed his life. Her world crumbled - nothing had founding anymore.

The downward sprial started from there.

Chris

First Appearence: Chapter 0: Prelude

Birthday and Age: September 4th, 22 years old

Height and Weight: 6' 1", 190 lbs

Hair Color: Dark honey blond

Eye Color: Hazel

Clothing: Anything comfortable, but always looks sharp in public

Accessories: None known

Personality: Usually quiet, he is easily angered with the slightest provocation. He is quite smart and witty and has a low tolerance for idiots.

Pokemon
A powerful team, including a Dragonite.

Badges: All of Sinnoh's badges. He plans on challenging the Elite Four once everything settles down.

Family: May, Lily

Known Backstory

Chris is the eldest child of May and Ryan, as well as Lily's older brother.

While growing up, he was often the only one who really knew what was going on. He knew that Hiroshi was a morph designed to save his father. As a result, he never really saw him as a brother.

However, that didn't stop Chris from being friends with him. Despite the four year gap, Hiroshi and Chris got along quite well. They did typical boy stuff and would leave Lily out of it. Still, they played with her more often than not.

Chris is quite protective of his little sister. His protection is what has kept her so naive all these years. He doesn't want her to suffer in any sort of way.

When his mother favored Hiroshi, he quickly grew jealous, like any young boy would. He childishly ignored him but didn't really hate him. This made his sister cry all the time.

After his father's death, he didn't know what to do. He wanted to accept his mother's way of thinking, but he didn't hate Hiroshi and wouldn't watch him suffer. He instead decided to become a trainer, travelling Sinnoh and rarely returning home.

Chris is essentially an obidient child. So, if May asked him, he would hunt down his own sister...

Ryuji

First Appearence: Chapter 1: Purpose

Birthday and Age: November 18th, 43 years old

Height and Weight: 5'11", 160 lbs

Hair Color: Dark green hair that is cut to the nape of his neck, with two longer strands of hair in the front.

Eye Color: Bluish gray

Clothing: Usually wears a lab coat at all times. Other than that, just comfortable clothes.

Accessories: Various glasses that change for the situation. He can't stand contacts.

Personality: Ryuji is an intellectual but by no means unapproachable. He has a good sense of humor and is generally easy to get along with. Unfortunately, he is quite easy to manipulate by those he cares for.

Pokemon
None, really, but he cares for Ryan's old pokemon.

Badges: None, as he was never a trainer.

Family: A normal family of a mother, father and two sisters, both of which are married with children. He's the eldest.

Known Backstory

Ryuji grew up fascinated with science and chose to go through school instead of going on a journey like his younger sisters. He excelled in school and got a degree in science by the time he was twenty.

For his graduate study, he was assigned to work in the lab of the reknown genetic scientist, Professor Ryan Satomi. He was Ryuji's idol, so the young college student considered himself the luckiest guy in the world. He quickly became the professor's most trusted assistant and closest friend. He helped the professor on a special project that included combining human and pokemon DNA to invesitgate Pokerus.

Two years passed quickly. Ryuji himself was gaining some attention for his work, and signs were good that he'd inheret the legacy. But it all changed the night that the professor brought home that sixteen year old girl...

It's not like it was love at first sight. After all, why would he love the girl that was pregnant with the professor's child? Rather, it was her that took an interest in him. She hung around the lab and watched all of his experiments and asked him all sorts of questions. Rather than finding them annoying, he found it endearing...

Because of his love for May, he ultimately couldn't say no to her desperate request. He prepared the DNA and watched over the ten children carefully, becoming devestated after each one died. When Hiroshi finally awoke, he was sure to care for him.

In a strange way, Ryuji saw Hiroshi as his and May's child - they certainly cared for him that way. The little boy often tagged after Ryuji and would watch him for hours.

Even after May's attitude changed, his did not. It was he who trained Hiro one-on-one, he who patched him up after every session. He saw to it that Hiroshi was educated and fed, but Hiro doesn't fully appriciate this. Ryuji's usually the one that stops May from hurting Hiroshi.

Ryuji is secretly glad that Hiroshi escaped. Still, he is worried what May will do when she finds him...

Height and Weight: 5'2", and a lady never tells

Accessories: Nothing outstanding. Being a grunt leaves little to accessorize. She does have two star clips in her hair.

A male Luxio rented to her by Team Galactic. She never had much interest in them.

Badges: None.

Family: A mother, father, and an older sister named Kiki, all living in Celadon City, Kanto.

Known Backstory

Mimi had a simple life. Her father, an executive at the Celadon City Deparment Store, gave his two daughters everything they wanted and more. They were terribly spoiled.

Her older sister, Kiki, took an interest in coordinating and left home with a Cherrim. Mimi was expected to follow, but when she didn't, she was shipped off to a prestigious boarding school in Jubilife City, Sinnoh.

The school was utterly boring, so one night she slipped away to roam the streets. She came across Team Galactic grunts and was "kidnapped" - really, she came along willingly. The idea of gaining money through underhanded means somehow appealed to her. She's caught up by strange things.

Now, her dream is to rise through the ranks of Team Galactic, amass a ridiculous amount of money, then move far away and live in selculsion, perhaps owning a clothing line. These are the sort of things she thinks about.

Height and Weight: 5'6" and rather skinny

Family: Unknown but probably dead.

Known Backstory

Neptune's childhood was spent in the streets with various people, moving from one group of vagabonds to the next. She was eventually found by a kindly old man who was a hoarder - he had over a hundred pokemon living in his house.

The old man was often gone, leaving the five year old girl at the mercy of the pokemon. The strongest pokemon, a devilish Lucario, took an unusual interest in her and made sure she was usually left alone. She had enough to eat and a place to live, so she never complained.

Around her tenth birthday, the Sunnyshore City Police raided the house and took all the pokemon into custody. Everyone was a little bit neglected, as the old man had died a few months before and the house was descending into anarchy. The police were shocked to find the skinny girl, and the event soon made news nation wide. To protect the girl, they cut and dyed her hair, gave her a pokemon, and shipped her off to journey.

Neptune enjoyed her journey and loved pokemon due to her housemates. One day, several years later, she battled an emotionless man named Cyrus and caught his attention. The way she seemed to battle alongside her pokemon was something he had never seen before.

He asked if she would be interested in helping him to start an organization that would one day change the world. She said she would.

Now, almost eleven years later, their dream is closer to realization. She's working hard to gather more members and spread the name of Team Galactic...
