Alexandria Beatrice 'Alex' Masters

Age: 17
Height: 6'3"
Weight: 130 lbs.
Place of Birth: Lilycove City, Hoenn
Date of Birth: April 7 (Aries)
Blood Type: A+

Appearance: Alex is a tall, attractive young woman with medium brown hair
reaching down to her back and eyes of the same color. Her most obvious (and
detested) physical trait is her very visible breast size (she takes a C-cup).
She normally wears a green T-shirt, blue jeans, knee-high socks, brown shoes
that vaguely resemble boots, and a brown jacket with cuffs lined in gold. She
carries her main gear (Various pots and pans, spices, foodstuffs, cooking
utensils, extra clothing and tricorder) in her backpack, while her Poké Balls,
PokéDex, PokéNav, and weapons are stored on her belt.

Personality: Alex is generally an easygoing person. She is quite friendly,
sociable, and outgoing. Alex is not afraid of talking about her own fears and
anxieties; especially to those people she has come to trust. However, Alex is
not above anger, resentment, or just being seriously ticked with someone. She's
cautious, but has an adventuresome side to her. She is intelligent,
resourceful, clever, humble, somewhat vain, and loyal. She generally tries to
do the best that she can at anything, and often succeeds. However, Alex also
has a habit of keeping secrets, and rarely reveals much about herself beyond
family and past experiences.

History: Alex was born in Lilycove City in the Hoenn region to Lyle Masters, a
Pokémon researcher with connections to Professor Oak and the Cinnabar Labs, and
Helen Mass-Gale-Masters, a single mother from a previous marriage. In an
incident that she has little knowledge of, Alex was kidnapped as a baby and
subjected to a mysterious procedure, one that altered her genetic code to its
current state. Her mother has been unwilling to relay the full details of the
incident to her.

Alex led a normal life since then, attending school, studying dance,
acrobatics, and some martial arts. Nothing extraordinary happened until her
thirteenth year, where her father was killed in a raid on his labs by Team
Aqua. Shortly before her fourteenth birthday, Alex went through a short but
permanent growth spurt which left her looking much as she does today; an
attractive, large-breasted young woman. This is because Alex is not human; she
is in fact an Extaxian, a member of a race alien to Earth. While she was born
with only a small fraction of Extaxian DNA in her genetic code, her system was
totally altered during the aforementioned incident, changing her into a
complete Extaxian. Her father had planned to explain this to her, had he not
have passed on so soon. Her father's death, combined with Alex's discoveries
concerning her past, the establishment of her mother's company MasterCorp, and
her studies, delayed her Pokémon journey for several years.

Alex has ultimately come to believe that despite her Extaxian genetics, she is
just as human as her mother and half-sister. With her studies complete shortly
after her sixteenth birthday and her mother's blessing, Alex set out on her
journey with the Torchic given to her by her father, by then a Combusken dubbed
Surtur. Thus far, Alex has already gathered five Pokémon, defeated two Gym
Leaders, and participated in the Silver Conference, putting in a good showing
despite a loss in the first round. She hopes to quickly continue her journey
and put in a better showing at the next tournament. Assuming there is a next
tournament.

Hobbies: Alex enjoys reading science fiction novels, building model kits of old
aircraft, and watching Japanese Animé. Among her favorite series are Silent
Möbius and Mobile Fighter G Gundam. She's also been known to occasionally quote
portions of Shakespeare, Star Trek, and Sherlock Holmes.

Pet Peeves: Alex generally dislikes womanizers, those who make light on
anything involving death and destruction, and those who believe themselves
above others without proper reason.

Abilities: Alex is a capable fighter, having earned black belts in Judo and
Aikido. She is currently studying Jeet Kun Do, the martial arts style developed
by the actor Bruce Lee. She's also an excellent gymnast and has studied the
ballet, sword fighting, and some forms of armed combat. She can cook very well.
Due to her Extaxian heritage, Alex is blessed with telepathic abilities
allowing her to sense others from a short distance (approximately five yards)
and read most individuals' thoughts. Also, she is blessed with approximately
25% more strength, speed, agility, and stamina than most humans, as well as a
powerful immune system that protects her from most harmful bacteria and
viruses.

Weapons: Alex carries two distinct weapons with her when traveling. The first
is a pike, an extendable rod that reaches five feet at maximum length. The pike
is hollow and lightweight, but incapable of directly killing someone in one
blow. At worst, the opposing individual is knocked unconscious or suffers a
broken bone. Her second weapon is usually in clear view at her left side; it is
a sword, dubbed the Dorsal Excalibur. The sword itself is a cross between a
European saber and a Japanese katana, with a hilt featuring a curved guard for
the hand reminiscent of a dolphin's dorsal fin and a small, marble-sized blue
crystal. While its exact composition is unknown, the sword itself is composed
of at least one rare alloy, that being Psionium, a compound made up of lead and
a mixture of other metals which can block most forms of metaphysical attack. It
can, however, be defeated with a strong enough attack.

Weaknesses: While her Extaxian genetics offer her several advantages, those
advantages are curtailed by several flaws. Should she ingest a large amount of
caffeine, she would temporarily lose control of her telepathic abilities and
unwillingly scan people. Also, while she can sense any living creature with a
short distance, there are certain circumstances where she cannot read their
thoughts. Pokémon with a Psychic, Dark, Steel, or Ghost element cannot be read,
while any human possessing similar characteristics or with proper protection
also fall into this same category. Those known to be protected from Alex's
abilities include Dee, Aerie, the bounty hunter Trent Retwin, the
extradimensional Kitsu and Keaton, Team Rocket member Nori Mizuke, and Adam
"Smasher" Samson, a Pokémon trainer with channeling abilities. Alex also
suspects that similar entities such as Mimic, Sabrina, and Tate and Liza are
immune. Alex's own abilities offer her protection from all but the more
powerful psychics, as she discovered when Dee was able to extract some
information from her mind. Also, due to a childhood fear of Sharpedo, Alex has
never learned to swim.

Combusken (Nickname: Surtur): Surtur was born and initially raised at one of
the many breeding centers in Hoenn, and was eventually given to Lyle Masters as
a birthday gift to his daughter, Alexandria. Over time, the two grew to
understand one another, helped greatly by Alex realizing that Surtur preferred
to not be called 'cute'. Following Alex's early graduation from school and her
registration as a Pokémon trainer, Surtur evolved into a Combusken and began
his journey alongside Alex. Surtur is intelligent and insightful, but
suspicious of others and fairly short-tempered. Despite some of his commentary
towards Alex, Surtur is loyal to her, as well as trusting and respectful. He'll
rarely admit it, but he would go the distance to help Alex. He enjoys eating
Twix candy bars.
Level: 27
Attacks: Fire Punch, Sand Attack, Rock Smash, Focus Energy

Wartortle (Nickname: Daraxis): Daraxis was the second Pokémon to join Alex's
team, given to her by Professor Oak during a brief visit to Pallet Town. He
evolved into a Wartortle shortly after winning Alex her first badge at the
Violet City Gym. He is stubborn and hardheaded, but fairly intelligent and
loyal to his trainer. Daraxis also has a strong belief in justice, but has
difficulty seeing things beyond black and white. Alex hopes that Daraxis will
learn to see the shades of gray with time.
Level: 24
Attacks: Bite, Withdraw, Ice Beam, Surf

Bayleef (Nickname: Nadyra): Nadyra was the third Pokémon to join Alex's team,
given to Alex by Professor Elm while visiting New Bark Town. Nadyra is young,
playful, gentle and kind. However, should something harm her, she will keep a
healthy distance from it thereafter until given reason to do otherwise. She
also attempts to act compassionate towards others, either by drying their tears
with her leaf or releasing a soothing smell to calm them.
Level: 22
Attacks: Cut, Earthquake, Razor Leaf, Reflect

Murkrow (Nickname: ShadowWarrior): ShadowWarrior was one of a small family of
Murkrow, hatched and raised in the wagon of a traveling show. At a young age,
however, he was taken from his family and eventually made it into the hands of
Team Rocket, who subjected him to experiments in an effort to teach the young
Murkrow to speak English. The efforts were successful, but ShadowWarrior
managed to escape by eliciting the sympathy of his three temporary guards, one
of whom was a talking Meowth. ShadowWarrior is quite laid-back and has a good
sense of humor that could be described as 'gentle sarcasm', but is still fairly
sensitive about his experiences and considers his abilities 'freakish'. He
values honesty, and likes Alex for the fact that she admits to her own
shortcomings. He is also very fond of M&M's candies.
Level: 26
Attacks: Night Shade, Pursuit, Haze, Fly

Beldum (Nickname: Grospoliner): Named for a character from Japanese Animé,
Grospoliner is extremely loyal towards Alex, enough to occasionally refer to
her as 'Master' despite her protests. Much like its namesake to its master,
Grospoliner is telepathically bonded to Alex, allowing the two to communicate
over short distances. The only item known to inhibit this bond is psionium
alloy, which seriously limits the bond without blocking it. In such cases, only
strong emotion or pain can be felt instead of direct thought. Grospoliner
itself is polite, brave, and quite vocal about battling, often calling out to
be sent to the field via telepathy as well as extremely loyal towards Alex,
enough to occasionally refer to her as 'Master' despite her protests. It is
very intelligent, and highly protective of Alex and her team to the point that
it would risk its own life for her or them. It is also quite friendly, though
he does on occasion become very nervous when dealing with many individuals.
Level: 20
Attacks: Take Down, Confusion, Metal Claw, Flash

Shiny Unown Eye: Eye started following Sarah the shepherdess moments after it
was set free, wondering if it should join the shepherdess' team but afraid that
she might be a poor Trainer. Eye followed Sarah for quite a while, but didn't
reveal itself to her until she bumped into an Unown Collective on Route 36 led
by Dee, the shiny D-shaped Unown. There, after being attacked by You, Eye's
arch-nemesis, Eye's mission changed - inspired by the independence speech Sarah
gave the Unown in Dee's Collective, Eye decided to search for other shiny Unown
to tell them that they should remain independent. Eye teamed up with Gee and
Zee to release an Unown they heard was caught by a Rocket in Mahogany Town. The
trio of Unown blew up a restaurant called Morty's Rockets in Mahogany instead
of a Rocket Base by accident then went their own ways. Eye went as far as
Cerulean City in its quest to tell shiny Unown that they should remain free,
but while in Ecruteak City, its quest was cut short when a woman captured it.
The woman's new-found powers led her into Team Magma. When Mimic killed her in
Hoenn, Eye joined him. Eye was eventually separated from Mimic by Aerie and
placed in Alex's safe keeping, now feeling that perhaps he himself should be
contained for the sake of the world.
Level: 15
Attack: Hidden Power (Grass)

Goals: Alex's current goals include learning the full extent of her abilities,
defeating the Gym Leaders in Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn, and hopefully winning in
a major tournament.

Additional Notes: Alex is currently taking part in the 'Search for Smasher',
and scouring Hoenn for any sign of the young Pokémon Trainer. She is also the
target of bounty hunters, two of whom (Grand and Walter) have revealed
themselves to her, while the other two remain anonymous, as does their
employer. Also, Alex temporarily had the Shiny Unown Cue on her team, but after
Cue's suggestion, turned him over to Aerie for safe keeping.
