Make way for Florian Schneider, the token rich kid.
Show Content
SpoilerCharacter Name: Florian Schneider
Desired Class: Capspec+Collector, then Watcher or Breeder maybe.
Stats:
Str: 6
Dex: 14
Con: 6
Int: 14
Wis: 13
Cha: 11
Max HP: 24
Money: 5000 PKDs.
Inventory: Drawing pad, copious notebooks, a rather dense book on Azela's geography aimed at academics, squarish leather backpack to keep losing all these things and more in. Money, important documents, and field notes about a particular Pokemon that's caught his fancy lately are kept closer to his person in a body wallet.
Description: Florian always keeps himself looking coiffured and impeccable, which also means one day of going bush unexpectedly and he's an almost-indistinguishable mess. Sandy hair in a really stupid quiff, nice skin, hands that betray he's done a bit of hard work in his life (not too much, though, he's fit but physically underwhelming.)
Smartly dressed - saved up for proper adventurer's gear like good boots, comfy straps to his backpack (which has been balanced properly to carry a few extra things strapped upon it), rad sunglasses, good hat, essentials like that.
Personality-wise, he's financially savvy, has the tongue of a diplomat businessman well beyond his twenty years, and is driven. Scarily so. He'll tolerate others' joking around and having fun, until there's shit that needs doing. Labourers and other working-class folk make him uncomfortable, because he knows he's not much good at talking to them.
History: Florian's from the old and relatedly well-moneyed Schneider family of Bracburg. Unlike some other heads of noble households, Florian's grandfather was very co-operative with the incoming military - to the derision of some other houses in the region, but to the Schneiders' ultimate benefit.
Florian decided from a young age that he wanted to Catch All The Pokemon, and with the unshakeable self-confidence and businesslike manic drive of the upperclassman got on with making his dream a reality. Being an absolute shrimp physically, he grew up learning the traders' business from the offices and back rooms rather than helping out at the docks and markets.
Once he was old enough to have his father stop fretting over him, Florian set off for the breeding centre in Port Anther, where he managed to line up a contact and get a job while he powered through the YTA's studies. Still mostly desk work, but he ran a tight ship financially for the company and was judicious enough with his own finances to pay his own way through the YTA.
Starter Pokémon: Piplup. It may or may not be one that he's had his eye on while working at the breeding centre.
