Name: Rachel Vitano Age: 19 Gender: Female Profession: Coordinator Appearance: ![]() A thin, somewhat frail looking kid, Rachel doesn’t weigh very much. At 115 pounds, she is easily carried by some of the weaker guys in college. She is quite tall and stands around five foot eight. She used to play on the basketball team when she was younger because she was so tall but quit when everyone else started passing her up in high school. She dislikes wearing heels simply because she doesn’t really need to be any taller than she is. Her brown hair is usually cut short and well above her shoulders for simplicity. It allows her to get her hair ready for contests a lot quicker than when it was halfway down her back. Rachel’s vision is somewhat poor so she does have a pair of prescription glasses as well as necessities for contacts. She wears contacts to make sure she doesn’t break her glasses while she’s on the road as they’re expensive as hell and also wears them during contests. Her glasses are small and slim to try and be a little less nerdy. Rachel is usually pictured as being slightly girly. While she doesn’t fret so much over her clothes and such, she does take forever to get dressed and ready. She’s a bit of a perfectionist with her appearance and only wears what she considers the best make-up. She doesn’t wear much, just a bit of foundation to hide some pox scars on her face that she is embarrassed by. However, she does wear a bit more for contests. Her traveling attire is usually a pair of lightweight, black capris, a tank top, and a hat for the warmer months. During winter, she wears thick pants, a long-sleeved shirt, and an overcoat. She usually sticks to tennis shoes but does have a pair of sandals. For contests, she usually dresses up either in a long purple skirt and frilly blouse or in the outfit pictured above, depending on which Pokemon is being sent out (females are usually paired with the skirt while males are paired with the jeans). History: Rachel is the youngest of the two children in her family. Her older brother, Zeke, is about five years older than her and has always been a bit of a jerk. In defense, he is only acting like older siblings should when with their younger ones. Zeke does have his moments though, like when he protected her from that bully when she started kindergarten. He did scold her for being a crybaby but it was the thought that counted. Neither had ever thought of a journey as living in the quiet Millenia Town wasn’t too exciting. Even with Pokemon, there was nothing to do. When Zeke finally went to college in Kijutsu City to become a doctor, the family had high hopes for him. Rachel was still the kid who they knew would do great things but if Zeke could get a doctorate at least, it would be smooth sailing for him. It was during the first year of his absence that she really began missing him. Sibling rivalry was pushed back and the two began to get along better than before. Zeke dropping out tore the family apart. Rachel supported his decision as being a doctor just wasn’t in him. The fight between him and their parents escalated and he left. She had wanted to go after him but she stayed home, trying to keep the peace with what was left of the broken family. Rachel began receiving letters from him soon after that night and she kept them all as he told her of the beautiful places outside of the cities. Then the time came for her to go to college. She followed her brother’s path to the college in Kijutsu but under the General Studies degree. Rachel had no idea what she wanted to do with her life. For weeks, she went through school, having no idea what she could be. Several careers interested her but the amount of work needed to complete her goal was just too much. In a rut, she struggled to figure out what would make her happy. Letters flew back and forth between her and her brother as he encouraged her to visit the world before she decided. The open spaces and clear skies, he reasoned, would help put her mind at ease. She hesitated, knowing her parents were still hurt over Zeke’s ‘betrayal’. Her answer finally came when, on her way back to the dorm from classes, she found an injured creature on the sidewalk. It mewed pitifully up at her, holding its back leg up. Unable to leave the unfortunate cat there, she cradled it in her jacket and took it to the Pokemon Center. The nurse on duty promised to give her updates on the Meowth’s condition as they took him back to surgery. Rachel left him there, upset and wondering if he’d make it the night. She kept her phone with her the rest of the day, jumping when it rang. When the nurse finally did call back, she hoped for good news. They had saved him, she had explained, but had to amputate the leg in order to do so. She couldn’t bear the thought of leaving him on the streets again to get his other leg taken off. Rachel kept him illegally in her dorm room which he didn’t seem to mind. He enjoyed sleeping on her bed while she was at classes and cuddling with her at night. The Meowth adapted well to his missing leg and never let it stop him. Being a very loving Pokemon, she began taking him to class with her when his leg finally healed. Rachel named him Juryrig because of his strange appearance. She found he enjoyed watching contests on TV. He would dance and try to perform the complicated tactics. Rachel enjoyed watching him and decided to enter one that was being held in Kijutsu. She applied for a license and utterly failed at the contest. Juryrig had tripped on his way out of the Poke ball, she tripped down the stairs, and Juryrig’s attack had accidentally injured one of the contest judges. Downtrodden, she promised to get better for hers and the Meowth’s sake. It had given her the confidence boost she needed to leave college after only her first semester to be a coordinator. Personality: Rachel is somewhat naïve and innocent. She’s lived in the city all her life but knows nothing about it. Although she does have some street smarts, she mostly sticks to the suburbs where she knows it’s a bit safer. She is a bit shy, staying quiet when confronted. When she does reach the breaking point, it could turn into a battle of wits as she tries to stay under control. Conflicts do upset her though but she often hides it by laughing. She does not like to battle as she feels protective over Juryrig and because of her dislike of conflicts. Rachel often keeps to herself although, around people she knows, she can show off her random intelligence to them. She tries to appease her parents although their relationship has been rocky for the last few days since she set off. She does enjoy the company of guys her age although she does hate jerks. Her shyness often makes her a little timid to approach them though. Rachel is just learning how to perform in contests so she is a little hesitant of what she does. Starting Pokemon: Meowth, Male Nickname: Juryrig Differences: Left hind leg amputated at stifle, tips of ears missing Starter Town: Kijutsu City PokeTech Color: Purple Other: Has a stack of letters from her brother that she carries around Edited by Violets are Blue, Mar 5 2009, 06:31 PM.
