Large for his size, Rai holds the outstanding qualities of a well bred evolved Jolteon. His darkly peridot and light topaz fur, well groomed and tidy, shimmers with electricity which frolics as occasional sparks throughout his pelt. The ears are large and usually tucked against the head, though at opportune times, they will pull forward for further usage. With paws as big as that can properly bear his leanly muscular weight and build, Rai still manages to travel rather silently upon soft pads.

The muzzle is well in length, lined on the inside with pearly white canines and other sharp teeth. Rai's ivory mane, a pride and joy to him, flares outwards with the appropriate ferocity of a thoroughbred electric pokemon. Eyes are of a simple light amber hue, and the barren rump is disguised by a collective of bristling fur -- visibly course, thick, and long. Claws are of a moderate appearance, dark brown in color. Even with the fur acting the way it does, he still holds an athletic look.

Oh the inner complexion \\--

In accordance with his physical characteristics, Rai is a rather stubborn, hasty, quick-tempered, and arrogant sort of character. Similar to the spawn of lightning coursing through his veins, he has as much patience as a a fire type pokemon does for daily baths. He carries an attitude of a high aristocrat, placing all other pokemon on levels slightly below his own -- with hybrids lining the bottom of the barrel. Rather sexist in his beliefs, he treats all females as frail, simple creatures as having no business in battles as their needs are more geared towards feminine issues (such as bearing children).

It's rather hard not to step upon one of his temper's trigger buttons, as every little thing possible causes some form of a complaint or two. Nonetheless, he is not one to hold onto grudges long, and is quick to explode as he is to calm. Rai finds that in the best of times, it takes straightforward tactics of force more so than calculated maneuvers of knowhow. This means he balances his character upon sheer quick wit that, though somewhat admirable, is still rather foolish. Not all of Rai is downright rudeness and fruitlessly harmful traits. Inside, he has a loyal demeanor with a yearning to profess love to someone special. Rai also carries a soft spot intelligent, articulate beauties which always tend to bring out the charmer hidden inside him.

Records indicate \\--

Rai was born to thoroughbred Jolteon parents as an Eevee -- first born son with two other siblings (both daughters). From the start, this well-to-do couple teamed up to groom their offspring into respectable figures of society. Though awfully nomadic in their ways, wandering from den to den, their main bout of territory was centrally located in the Erymire Forest where game was plentiful as well as hapless subjects for training practice. Rai's father drilled him hard on the processes to being a true male Jolteon -- he accepted nothing lower than the absolute best; and pushed his son to live, think, drink, eat, and dream electricity.

The time came after much maturity when Rai evolved into a Jolteon as proudly pure as his parental figures. Upon the accomplishment, the time arrived for him to step out of the fostering care of his parents into the spotlight of the world he had yet to explore. With the rising tides of hormones pulsating through his body, it became very difficult to avoid testy arguments and fights with his father in the group as a plausible rival male. Heartfelt goodbyes were issued to his family before Rai soon found himself leaving the familiar scent markings of the usual Jolteon boundaries and heading straight into the wild. Four years of wandering later, he has become a hardened, seasoned veteran of the means to survival.

[Maru]

jsut to let you know it has to start as an Eevee not start as a evolution once you get 50 posts he can evolve

[Sephalesh]

Yes, Maru is right. Do to some very fair rules, people can't start out as Evolutions, or uber pokemon. It is simply for the fact that everybody seems to want to be at the utmost top when they start there Rping that it can get ridiculous.

Ugh..

Duly noted. I'll have to go manipulate my post then. What a bother.

Reizo stands as an ordinary, common Mareep in physical standing aside from a projected aurora he carries hinting to a calm, zen-like appeal. He possesses high quality wool that is softer than the down feathers of newborn chicks but throughout the curly locks are dancing bouts of electrical voltage that are guaranteed to leave one so unfortunate quite a shock. The fleece is not however so fluffy to leave him with a cartoon-like puffball appearance; instead, it is molded in tune with his body, giving him a subtly sensual silhouette from the top of his head to slightly below his joints. Reizo stands upon leanly muscular legs of a deeply blue hue and they end with ivory-like cloven toes.

Aside from his limbs, Rei's face is also blue and lengthy as a muzzle would be on any other lamb near his caliber. His ears are triangular in shape that carry alternating black and yellow colorations alike on his long, almost serpentine tail. At the end of his rear's appendage is a round orb of yellow-ish amber that consistently glows through electrical currents with the animal's temperament or chosen will. Reizo's eyes are deep pools of black that are as entrancing as they are full of various feeling.

The birth of Reizo, or sometimes called Rei for short, was a welcome one -- with both his parents overjoyed to welcome in the new, male Mareep. He was fortunate to have been born to a wandering flock that stuck together for protection against predators and utilized their numbers strategically when necessary. Over the passing seasons, Reizo grew and prospered into a fine juvenile. Through a few scuffles with lesser pokemon around his level, he developed some fighting skills and picked up many useful moves until he was considered a sizable offense to most plunderers of flesh. All was going well in the lives of the fluffy creatures up until midway through a usual midnight graze conducted beneath the soft glowing lights of the collection's tail orbs.

Sneaking through the tall grass were members to a pride of Luxray seeking to alleviate their hunger and calm the mewling of their starving kits. Before the Mareep flock even had an opportunity to group together for defense, the ambush was sprung causing a whirlwind of chaos as random victims began to fall prey to the claws and fangs of the Luxray. Reizo and his parents made attempts to escape the madness on their own, fending off any stray beast that tried to take a swipe at them, until they were confronted by quite a few of the pride near the edge of an overflowed river; it's rapids and currents too feverish for a safe crossing. The gnarled purrs of unappeased appetites and certified victory drove the group beyond their fears though and in one raucous bleat, they charged headlong into the stream with their eyes shut tight against the horrific illusions of drowning.

The varying ferocities of whitewater caused the three to bobble up and down in the chilling waters -- their eyes stinging, feet being cuffed by riverbed stones, and their shivering assuring them of their precious lives still being within grasp. Dawn produced a rather saddening scene with Reizo, his teeth chattering loudly from the loss of heat in his sodden fur, standing alone on a bank without his mother and father. He waited for days near where the river tossed him up amongst a cropping of large boulders, and still he never saw a single curly lock of his parents or even detected their presence with a pleasing baa. On the eighth passing of the sun from the sky into the horizon of the west, some tears were shed as he was forced to abandon the prospects of finding either of them any longer at the water side. Though Reizon still refused to accept his parents may have died in the river that unfaithful night, he was grateful that they risked so much to save his life and vowed to use the time given to him wisely.
