Once upon a time, a world was born before any other – this world split into two - and these two very different worlds then began creating life in the limitless space of their core - which cradled new worlds to be born and given full of life. This space was called the Void. It both resides within the heart of this world – the world of light - and the dark parallel world across the fresh hold of the Void. Theoretically speaking, these are the "Mother Worlds" to every other world within the Void. These worlds are truly where good and evil were originally born.

Inside the Void are souls of the departed from this world – and somewhere locked, hidden inside the Void are all universes, connected yet reflected by invisible mirrors, worlds reflect each other again and again, creating unlimited reflections. Principles, laws, people, creatures, souls, worlds – they are all different because of a different shade or number of mirrors surrounding each universe and reflecting the image of that ideal world. It is impossible to travel these corridor of mirrors, and that is the reason most of these worlds of never been or seen one another, let alone heard of another world altogether. The existence of the Void and them knowing they were a part of one was impossible.

The crystal shards – originally a mirror, a gateway into the Void and the heart of this world, balances all worlds that depend on light – good to fight the evil, the light in the darkness – it was called the Crystal Mirror of Light. This mirror reflects on all worlds, and creates a level of peace. It reflects the seven virtues of Chastity, Temperance, Charity, Diligence, Patience, Kindness, and Humility onto worlds hearts, and an eighth – Justice.

Just as with this mirror, another lies across the fresh hold of this world - the heart of the parallel world to this one instead reflects the seven deadly sins in the hearts of all worlds – Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, and Pride.

You can’t have one without the other. Without these two mirrors existing, or one without the other, unbalance would shift in all worlds, the mirrors inside the Void would fall and shatter, everything would turn to oblivion and everything would vanish, to be taken into the Void and cease to be.

There were always two Guardians, the one who protected the Light Mirror, and the Guardian who protected the Dark Mirror. They were by no means immortal, or any kind of God, they were just picked out – chosen by the Void of the departed souls – and given a lifespan of how long they would protect their respected Mother World Crystal. They protect it until death or just until another was chosen. For how long – I don’t know exactly how many years – but I’ve counted centuries.

This method was flawed and almost became the demise of all worlds, however. After so long, a Guardian who was picked from the Dark Mother World, with an undesirable passion, an absolute hatred of the light that shined onto all worlds - struggled till his very last breath across the fresh hold of the Void, defeated the Light Guardian, and then with his last ounce of strength, shattered the Light Mirror into mere fragments of crystal, which fell hidden inside the Light World – these I call the Light Shards.

As the Dark Guardian fell to his apparent death, the worlds which depended on light the most – their mirrors began to crumble and shatter as well. Subconsciously, with the Light Guardian’s last bit of strength, he also pulled an amazing act – he called to the endless Void for hope. Before the worlds began to vanish as the mirrors were in pieces – the “heart” of the Void heeded his call.

From the Void’s broken mirrors, ten chosen ones were called by the great heart – to recover the Light Shards – and save all worlds from complete destruction.

Because the gateway - the Crystal Mirror - had been destroyed, darkness and evil freely passes in and out from the Dark World, parallel to the Light World across the Void. In spite of the Light World being completely consumed by the Void once the balance was broken – one thing stopped that process from happening: the existence and presence of the denizens of the Void – everyone who was summoned to gather the Light Shards. Their hearts and souls alone, subconsciously, stopped the Void from consuming everything in its path, because of the fact that they are connected by that very Void – and because they do not belong there – the process of the Void rejects them and comes to a complete halt. I’m not sure exactly how it happens to work – but that’s the gist of it.

The Void did have one strategy against this problem, though.

Because they did not belong, the chosen ones first rejected, and perhaps feared this other world that was not their own. Their minds and their hearts fell astray - and slowly but surely, they started to disappear - back inside the Void – so that the Void could finish the process of elimination. But one aspect flawed this, too. Merely by eating a piece of food from this world – or the food that was changed during their travel – made their hearts accept the Mother World around them, ceasing them from disappearing and also holding back the Void once again.

The two Crystal Mirrors reflect good and evil in the hearts of every living thing in all worlds – the Light Shards, however, have a power all to themselves. In the hands of the denizens of the Mother World of Light – they create a dark aura around the vicinity of the land around them – 8 lands – 8 crystals of shard – one for each virtue. This darkness that plagues the world of light is called Miasma. This Miasma has different effects and varies upon the land, as is the usage. In Hope – a small farming town with boundaries of cliff rocks – when affected by the downfall of Miasma, turned all living things into unaware spirits haunting their beloved village town. In Sacred Forest and the fields surrounding it – turned the living people and creatures - who survived the mist - into horrible monsters after the Miasma cursed the land – some I recall are Skulltulas, Heartless, Devils and the like. They lose their souls and become monsters – that’s the Miasma’s main affect.

But the Miasma can be manipulated as well – to create and form monsters larger and more powerful than most other monsters taken by the Miasma. These certain monsters are the ones guarding the Light Shards. By certain dark people from the Void, they can use the Miasma in their favour.

There are very few safehouses that are free of the Miasma or influenced by it. But those with strong wills and hearts in the Mother World are able to survive and not be changed by it, being a force against Miasma and those using it.

The chosen ones summoned from the Void are the only ones capable of containing the pieces of crystal – the Light Shards. Once pieces are in possession, the darkness - the Miasma – should lift from the land and return it to a safe zone. I’m unsure if the land will truly return to normal – but through collecting all pieces and restoring the Crystal Mirror – should return this world and all worlds shattered to their original states.

Though the shards will be carried with a heavy burden to the chosen ones – these shards, in the right hands, are said to protect those from the Void with good hearts. Though, on the other hand, it is also said that those from the Void with evil intentions can however use the power of the shards as a destructive force.

It seems the chosen ones must also have balance in this world – like the two parallel worlds of Light and Dark – good and evil must be there for them to co-exist.

But if the evil ones learn of the Void and the shards, what would be their goal?

As a scientist and apprentice of the next Light Guardian to foresee these events, I’m sad to see my future is a short one as a Guardian, but proud that it wasn’t a fruitless one. I don’t have a choice but to leave the future of this world into the hands of these chosen ones from beyond the Void. But I am confident they will not fail.

It’s good to know that somewhere inside the Void a heart has been there all along, and that as long as there is life, there will always be hope.

I have time travelled long enough. My days of living on this planet are almost up. I will soon depart into the Void where I will one day become Age – the new Guardian of the Crystal Mirror of Light, and fulfil my destiny.

I have faith in the chosen ones, and I hope that once all is returned to complete harmony, they too are returned and reunited to their home worlds.

History:
25 years of age, Spence became an elite soldier, master of the Soldier’s Blade, a two-handed beast of a weapon passed down in the army, which would soon make him and his companion Jack legendary...

In Spence’s world, for as long as he could remember, two regions called the Hume Kingdom and the Magi Kingdom were at war for a mysterious cause. He and his best friend Jack, a mechanic who could fix anything, were soldiers on the Hume side. After training, they were thrown into combat against the Magi, mystical beings who could perform the phenomena; magic. To the Humes, Magi were considered to be evil, considered to be demons who only thought of destroying the Hume civilisation.

After many battles against people who could shake the earth with their tremendous power, they were both captured and brought to the Magi Kingdom to be executed under the eyes of their Queen. Being imprisoned with a man named Diseh, they counted their final days. At the last moment, Diseh’s rescue team showed up from nowhere and saved the three from being hung. Diseh’s party included his better half – Tori, and a beautiful Magi by the name of Sarah.

Escaping with their lives in the New Continent’s underground caves, Spence and Jack learn more about the Magi from Sarah, and they both easily fall in love with her. Apparently, the war began when the Magi King was mysteriously taken from the throne and replaced by the Queen, only after a Hume attack on the Magi which soon sprouted the war. Diseh and Tori explained that instead of blaming one side or another, they should stop both sides entirely; starting with the easiest Kingdom they can get into, Hume Kingdom.

Spence, Jack, Sarah, Diseh and Tori ventured the caverns together as Spence and Jack found out some hidden truths from their new allies. Diseh and Tori were treasure hunters, who found out secrets hidden buried underground, about a place where both Hume and Magi once lived together in harmony in a forgotten land. That was until a great tragedy struck them, and this once peaceful civilisation was torn apart. This darkness that overwhelmed this once advanced civilisation was so bad, the survivors had to escape on a flying machine and leave it all behind. In their efforts to find a new home, they stumbled upon this continent, naming it New. But the scars that edged in the people’s hearts carried on for generations until a whole race of people were split into two, the Hume, and the Magi, divided. And so the regions were born. They were all the same after all. Magi were no demon, only as evil a normal Hume could be. Humes grew away from magic relying on technology, whereas Magi continued to depend on it.

They finally reached the castle to speak with the Hume King, to find out it’s his intention to continue the war, whether or not the Magi are evil or not. Despite their efforts to persuade him, the King orders the Magi, Sarah, to be taken into their custody and that their continued patterns with the Magi would result in treason, and they would be sentenced to death. Of course, they all refuse to hand Sarah to them and fight the King and everyone who followed his evil ways. Defeating the King, it turns out he was being manipulated by an unknown person or entity. He calls his men to stop the war against the Magi, to then find out that the Magi have suddenly resorted to used dark magic, the highest form of magic there is, to summon fiends to push through their walls and defences, and they had now bordered the region, the Kingdom’s perimeters as they speak. Before the King dies of moral injuries, he asks of the party to confront the Magi Queen as they did to him and stop her whatever means necessary. They agree.

Before the final act, they fight off the fiends the Magi summoned within the region and continue up to a small village in the hills where it had been almost completely destroyed by the outbreak. They rescue a small child at the age of 2 whose name was Gale, a couple of his limbs were torn to no-repair, but Sarah managed to heal Gale to some extent so he could live. Diseh and Tori decide to head back, along with Jack, who showed the most sympathy toward the boy, to get him to a safe place before they went any further. Spence and Sarah stayed behind to clean up the mess, and see if there were any more survivors. Sarah begins to hate her people while Spence comforts her. They have a special moment together.

When the party returns, they are given a few choices between how they may approach the Magi Kingdom, but they eventually get there and fight the evil Magi and their Queen as they race up the Magi Castle. They find the old King, King Leo, to be petrified, turned to crystal, as well as their princess daughter, Katie. Saving them before they encountered the Queen, Sarah asks if she may enter the chamber alone to speak with her, feeling an obligation to do so after witnessing so many deaths caused by her own people.

A battle commences between Sarah and the Queen who seems to be under the same spell the Hume King was in, awhile Spence and party fight off the Queen’s dark henchmen they met throughout their journey; Cory, Emma and Abbey.

They eventually enter the chamber where Sarah and the Queen’s Magi battle had drawn to a close, but the Queen’s power was mutating rapidly inside her. Becoming a dark beast, also known as a Guardian, the party fights their final battle together and succeeds, vanquishing the evil that possessed her heart. Before the Queen dies, she apologises and continues to speak of the great darkness which has yet to make an appearance, saying only the next generation can possibly overcome it. She again apologises, but oddly, to only Sarah. She then fades away.

Peace finally between the two regions on New Continent, the party return back to Hume Kingdom. Diseh and Tori set up a treasure shop to make it big, and Jack goes into the engineering business, taking Gale in and making him new mechanical arms and legs so he can move and live normally like everyone else. As well as for Spence and Sarah, they build a place aside a beautiful meadow by the sea. It wasn’t long before Sarah tells Spence that she’s pregnant with his child.

When the baby was born, Sarah smiles brightly to Spence as he holds his baby girl. The next day, Sarah doesn’t wake up. Apparently, the thing that possessed the Queen absorbed her life energy, if it wasn’t for the child’s life-force growing inside her, she wouldn’t have survived for this long. Spence names the child Sarah, after her mother, and raises her at their secluded house.

10 years pass...

Gale and his daughter Sarah are getting along really well, and everyone’s doing fine. Still, Spence and Jack know and bear in their hearts that someday, evil will strike this world again. And survival may very well be in the hands of these two children.

Universe: Pokemon world, Sinnoh Region
Name: Umbra (Sneasel)
Age: One and a half years, recently left the nest to form his own hunting party.
Weapon Pokemon moves: Night Slash, Bite, Ice Shard and Blizzard.
Other (optional): The feather on his head is blue-colored.

Abilities: Extremely agile but very frail, can only take but the weakest attacks but his strong point is avoiding them rather than taking them. He specializes in stealth and reconnaissance for his previous pack and is a lethal assassin. Capable of almost completely blending in to a cold or snowy environment.

Personality: Spoiled by his parents because he was the only child, he grew bigger and stronger than most other Sneasel. He understands all about being a team player and following orders, but will not hesitate to do something else if he's sure it will benefit the pack better. He is used to being full and happy at all times, and gets grumpy and whiny when he doesn't get what he wants. He's not very mature because he just left the nest, but he's very intelligent and good at tracking. He has an extreme distrust and slight fear of humans, seeing them stomp through his territory with no care of their camp or territorial markings. He will run at the sight of a Poke ball, and is deathly afraid of being caught.

Description: Normal Sneasel, but with a blue feather.

History:


Grew up on the cold tundra hunting Swinub, Piloswine, and on rare occasions Mamoswine, Sneasel grew up in one of the biggest hunting packs in northern Sinnoh. The pack's newborn were almost twice the size of the next largest pack because they were so well-fed and the adults were skilled hunters. His parents were the leaders of the pack, and spoiled him. Because of this, he has no sense of not getting what he wants, he was always the spoiled child, the rich kid. He had all the friends and was the popular guy, he had everything. What he didn't know is that all these people only liked him because he was the son of the pack leader, if they didn't befriend him he could get rid of them.

His first hunting party didn't go well, he went off on his own in the middle of an important hunt during a famine and attempted to take down a Piloswine all by himself. The rest of the pack tracked him down by scent and found him, a bloody mess in the snow. He managed to pick himself up and proceeded to track the Piloswine down that injured him, it was licking its wounds in a cave with it's eggs. They stole the eggs while the mother was sleeping and brought them to camp. The pack leader punished him by giving him sentry duty for half a year, it was during this time he practiced stealth and spying, catching many enemy clans on their way to raid their camp.

After this time, he is now a year and a half old and has had his coming of age ceremony, and been given his adult feather. The blue color is a family trait, and has been passed down through his family over generations. He has been sent off from his pack, on a mission to begin his own pack and clan.


Questions for your character: (must include a list, a sentence or perhaps a paragraph, must be in-depth, the mere thoughts and dreams of your character(necessary story-wise!!!))
What are you most afraid of?
Umbra has had a morbid fear of Piloswine ever since his incident, but has not problems taking on Swinub, Mamoswine, or any other Pokemon.

What do you dream about?
He dreams of becoming as great as his father, and being the leader of one of the biggest hunting clans on the northern Sinnoh tundra.

Who are your enemies? (plot down your main villain from your origin, and the people you may have fought as well)
The Clangs were the main rival clan of Sneasel, with a Weavile as the leader. They have many strong Sneasel and have conducted many raiding parties, killing Umbra's mother and crippling his dad. Umbra formed a guerrilla party and managed to fight them out of their territory, and his father decided he was now an adult.

Who is your best friend? (simple description)
Teeny, another Sneasel he bonded with while stuck with sentry duty. Teeny was Umbra's first pick when choosing a guerrilla party, and was granted adult status at the same time as Umbra.

What do you want to be in the future?
He planned on forming his own pack and possible finding transport to another region, he didn't want to interfere in his previous clan's hunting, and planned to move northeast, towards Snowpoint City, rumor has it there is plenty of eggs trainers leave behind for food.

What kind of nightmares do you dream?
He has nightmares of the one Piloswine, mauling him over and over without stopping. He can never defeat it, and he eventually gives up and lets it maim him over and over until he finally wakes up. He also has nightmares of the Clangs leader, how it killed his mother and destroyed their camp. He also occasionally dreams of humans and being captured, the few caught Pokemon he has met seemed brainwashed and strange.

Who or what do you love the most?
He loved his mother and Teeny the most, he never got over how his father punished him for attempting to make a kill for the pack. He has not formed a pack yet, and thus has not chosen a mate.

What do you hope to gain from a new adventure?
Me or my character? If you're speaking of me, I love roleplaying, specifically Pokemon ones. If you meant my character, then he never dreamed of having an adventure, but his ultimate goal would be to get stronger and return to his nest to form a clan, and hopefully eliminate the Clangs.

And finally, what would you give to return to your home world?
He forms new friends relatively easily but doesn't form a trusting bond (especially with humans) for a long time. He enjoys new friends, but his ultimate goal will always be to return home, whether it be sacrificing his friends or not.
