[PERSONAL]

Personality

| Dorky || Optimistic || Dim-Witted || Stubborn || Protective || Idiotically Courageous |

Though a little on the dumb side, Barren really doesn’t know how to have anxiety about things. He’s overly optimistic and likes to throw a little bit of fun in everything if possible. He enjoys seeing others smile and even if feeling down he’ll always have his typical goofy smile on, to make sure others aren’t feeling bad because of him. He’s a pleaser if anything at all, and will do all in his power to cheer someone else, whether it benefits him or not, because other’s happiness is enough for him. He’s no coward either, and will take irrational measures to keep his teammates alive and in one peace -- this, unfortunately, makes his teamwork skills very poor. He hates taking orders especially if he sees others in danger, and is very stubborn if he thinks his way is best.

History

Barrens POV

“Eheh, well how do I start? Erm, I was born n’ raised on a pea-little farm near the outters a’ wall Rose until it was attacked. My ma and pa were a happy couple but pop was always out with the military so I didn’t get to see him often, but when I did it seemed like he was missing another limb each time. First his hand, then his arm, then a eye. I felt bad, but he was still an awesome dad nonetheless. My ma was a really sweet lady and she always said she was goin’a spoil me best  she could, ‘cause we don’t have much, but I never asked her to. I remember as I got older I had to start takin’ care a’ the pokemon we raised, ma and me, but we didn’t have that many ‘cause there was a sudden demand on the ones we could sorta keep. Money got real tight and we ended up having to sell a few acres a’ land, even though we didn’t have much. Like I said before, the pokemons were dyin’ out and it was tough to find more we could buy n’ raise, and before we knew it our whole farm was gone.

Either way, durin’ that phase a’ depression I was goin’ through, I started gettin’ real bad pains in my teeth and parts a’ my back. I asked Ma and she said she didn’t know for a long time, but she did tell me eventually. She said that when I was a baby Pa suggested I was err… "Experimented on", so I could grow up strong and healthy as a Tauros, but I think that part about experimentation was a joke. Maybe not though. She made me go to the doctor when I was about 12 or 13 years cute, and he gave me this weird stuff and said that I would probably get more growing pains than a lot a' the kids who weren't takin' this. When I got older and passed the growing pains ma told me that a lot a' the kids who also took the stuff ended up dyin'. Not me though, she said I was too strong for it! Turns out, that stuff they gave me when I was littler was actually Galvantula DNA. My brows ended up turnin' blue and same with parts'a my hair, while the rest turned blonde. I got extra teeth and they were real sharp, and sometimes when I went to scratch my back I could feel a few little things on each side. I've been told they were extra legs but I haven't seen em' and from what I can tell, I can't use 'em. N' sometimes when I try hard enough I can make sparks come outta' my fingers. I think it's cause of the DNA~

Ma got real depressed and, I guess I don’t really get why but I did too. I had nothin’ta do through the days and I never went to school. Ma says we didn’t got the money for it. I learnt a little on the way though, I ain’t dumb as a rock anymore. Meanwhile, Ma got real sick too and Pa stopped comin’ to see us. I did everythin’ I could to keep Ma happy and alive as best I could -- hell I even went punchin' n' kickin' people for money. For medicine, but when I asked doctors I didn’t know what to tell ‘em. Ma told me not to bother wit’em but I didn’t care, I just wanted her to be okay again. She passed a few months later and  left me to take care a’ the few Torchics n’ one Miltank we had left, but they ended up croakin’ too. I ended up losin' the farm and havin' to scrounge up a little somethin' to eat now and then. I guess I was lucky not to live in wall Rose when the titans attacked, for sure I woulda' been eaten.

Reason

“She’d tell me stories of Pop and how he did and the things he wanted for me, what he wanted to do for the both of us. I didn’t realize it until a couple a’ years ago, why he stopped visiting us. He was killed by a titan. That made me mad, and Ma told me that after that she wanted to join him in the scouting legionar, to avenge him. That was around the time she got sick, so now I’m goin’a avenge him for her. I told her that myself. Besides, I know now that if I can get into the Scouting Legionar, I can protect everyone a whole lot better. I want to do more than the Militar Polizei or the Stationaire Gardes. Protecting others is better from the outside.”
