Caspar Finch
Core Information Name: Caspar Finch Nickname/Alias: Nitro Age: 16 Gender: Male Birthplace: Mauville City, Hoenn Trainer Classification: Trainer Character Tracker: Caspar Finch's Tracker Physical Attributes Height: 5 ft 11 inches Weight: 11 Stone Appearance:
Though it isn't in the actual pic he has Heterochromia making his left eye blue and his right eye green. Personality Personality: Caspar is an extremely friendly guy, who is a little bit self-conscious about his Heterochromia and uses pokemon battling as an outlet to put his pokemon centre stage and take the spotlight off of him. He can also feel like he's out of control a lot of the time due to his Clairvoyance and honestly it scares him, majority of the time he doesn't know the deceased or how to help them and it makes him confused and jumpy. His judgement can become clouded by his friends and family which for most people isn't a trouble but due to his loyalty he goes out of his way to make them happy and puts them above himself as he does for people who even remotely show an interest in him, his interests and his life and that in turn can allow people to use him without him realizing what's happening. Caspar enjoys photography as well as a past time as it allows him to keep memories of his past and to document his journey. One of the few people he's able to open up to and who first got him into pokemon training is his big brother Raymond who is 21 and always helped him with coping mechanisms for his self-consciousness which are hit and miss and his clairvoyance; primarily helping to teach him to meditate and clear his mind. Caspar is extremely well educated passing his studies with flying colours giving him an edge in the world with his vast knowledge of a broad range of topics. He had to work hard though to achieve this, he had to ignore those who looked to bully him and called him a freak, he had to spend long hours catching up on his work and redoing it when the bullies stole it or destroyed it and school was a minefield for him. He loves to run and from his upbringing within the city he has a certain admiration for technology in all forms from a simple toy, to the complexity of a vehicle or even a holocaster he'd heard about from abroad. Caspar though he loves his family and Hoenn has bigger dreams than just this league which he is determined to defeat; he wants to travel, to see more of the world, to meet many more pokemon and to see if he can actually find a place in the world. Which he doesn't feel he has being completely socially inept and awkward so though he may like people and become linked up with people he still finds it awkward to engage in basic conversations and carry out certain group tasks. His family tell him that he has an amazing imagination which is able to formulate ideas and battle strategies most wouldn't even think of, or to compose pieces of music or literature though these particular things were more encouraged by his school that personal interest, he prefers the invention of devices that can make a real impact and influence the world in ways most people can only dream of. He doesn't do this for recognition or fame though as he doesn't wants millions looking at him; in fact he doesn't even know how he'd handle it; he simply wants to make the world a better place for people and pokemon alike and those who seek to tip the balance one way or the other irritate him. Caspar loves to explore, to climb, to swim; to have new experiences which can help him to learn new skills and find new places that he can be himself. Sometimes he can come across as wild when exploring due to his urge to go fast and take it all in and when he comes across one area all he can think of is what is beyond, what new pokemon and people could possibly live in certain places that he himself never knew even existed. He can be a little bit scatterbrained in that respect that he can't focus on a single thing when exploring but that's really the only time he loses his concentration when out and about looking at new things. Caspar is afraid of the dark and can even get claustrophobic due to times he'd been shoved in places that a normal person wouldn't dare to go when in their right mind. As a kid when around the age of 8 when he was coming into his clairvoyant powers that dark was the worst it allowed entry to people that he didn't know or couldn't see but he could hear voices through the dark and make out figures in it terrifying him and traumatizing him that to this day he still has to sleep with the light dimmed down or on. Being exposed to the dark has adverse affect on him and can cause him to freak out or lose control of himself in that he becomes gripped in the paralyzing fears of those that he believes wants to get him. Strengths: Athletic - Always used to enjoy partaking in sports back when he was in trainer school as found it to be a good way of blowing off steam Loyal - If someone is truly kind and friendly to him then he will stand by them no matter what so can be a great friend for life Respectful and Honorable - Doesn't do anything to mock an opponent and tries to treat them with the utmost respect. He tries to treat others as he himself would like to be treated. Weaknesses: Jumpy - His clairvoyance can sometimes make him quite jumpy to random sounds and unpredictable events. Due to this he's always on edge. Quick Temper - If someone offends him or does something to really annoy him he will be extremely outspoken and if the person doesn't apologize he can become physical though is 85% more bark than his bite. Reckless - Can occasionally let the heat of the moment influence him to make a poor decision and put himself at risk for the sake of others regardless of the dangers to his own health. Battle Style: He tries to read an opponent in a battle and develop a battle plan to fit the situation however he cares about his pokemon enough that he will put them before victory. He knows that if his pokemon are badly injured it can effect them in the future mentally and physically. He trusts his pokemon fully though and tries to get them to trust him. He usually scans the battle area and if possible use the environment to his advantage be it hiding in foliage and launching a surprise attack or giving his pokemon a home field advantage. Background History: Caspar was born into a loving family in Mauville town that consists of his 43 year old Engineer mother Talia, his 44 year old father Jed who is a doctor, his 21 year old brother Raymond. He loved them all dearly and they loved him too knowing that he was special they could just tell and Raymond was the first one to point out Caspar's heterochromia which his parent's became worried about at first thinking it could cause him problems with his health but thankfully the doctors reassured them that it wouldn't. As a baby Caspar was particularly noisy meaning his parents rarely ever got to sleep but, one night Raymond heard Caspar bawling away and went to check on him being only a toddler himself, rubbing his eyes Raymond entered the room and looked into Caspar's crib; and Caspar immediately became silent and smiled at Raymond before laughing making Raymond half smile and giggle stroking the side of Caspar's head to get him back to sleep and fell asleep on the rug next to Caspar's crib to make sure he was nearby. When their parents found them like that in the morning they knew Caspar and Raymond had a bond stronger than anything they'd ever seen and knew that as long as they had each other they'd be perfectly happy and safe. As Caspar grew up into his toddler years Raymond was ever-present helping their parent's teach Caspar to crawl, walk, talk and even feeding Caspar when he had the chance. When Raymond became old enough to go to school though he became worried about Caspar not wanting to leave him even for the few school hours but knew he had to. Whilst Raymond was at school Caspar constantly cried and nothing could ever calm him until Raymond got home which though sweet, it was also distressing to Caspar's parents who tried everything to calm him down, playing, putting on music, television, cuddling but, it never worked or at least when it did it was only a temporary fix which offered Caspar a chance to regain his breath. Raymond rarely ever went on trips with his school which would leave him away from Caspar for days on end keeping them only to the compulsory ones which he still spent annoyed and worried for Caspar who he spoke to daily on a holo caster his father had bought for these situations specially from Kalos. When Caspar finally reached an age he was able to go to school he was happy going in and expecting to learn new things and skills he hoped would be fun, oblivious to the fact that he was different as in his eyes (You know what I mean) he was no different to any other kid. This meant the bullying was unexpected and hit him hard or at least not as hard as Raymond when someone crossed the line towards Caspar. It became a marked down thing for people that Caspar wasn't alone, he was never alone as he was under his big brother's watchful eye and protection, they spent breaks together in the school library reading and laughing and the books they were reading and helping each other understand their weaker subjects. Thanks to Raymond his school years were some of his happier ones and he adored the time he spent with his big brother who was his hero. At the age of 8 Caspar got two beautiful baby sisters, twins called Celeste and Kenzie; his parents always were ones for thinking outside of the box Raymond being the exception for some reason their creative spark starting with Caspar. Caspar helped them in very much the same way Raymond helped him alongside his big brother but his sisters always seemed to crave the attention of their parents instead, Caspar and Raymond dismissed it as a girl thing laughing about it but there as always was an unspoken vow of protection of them though it never became needed the twins grew up to become pretty and popular and their big brothers were never really needed. Caspar and Raymond continued to have adventures together through life exploring nearby areas to Mauville usually under the watchful eye of their dad. Caspar, Raymond and Jed shared two common interests though, Golf and Fishing both of which they enjoyed the friendly competitions they had and they always tried to do both as much as possible though as the years went by Jed became busier and the amount of time they were able to spend together dropped thanks to work. Shortly before his 9th birthday Caspar began seeing and hearing things that other people couldn't and at first he just put it down to his heterochromia but Raymond knew otherwise, Raymond had a friend who dealt with this sort of thing called Chantelle and he took Caspar to see her Caspar being told that this wasn't a punishment, it was a gift much like his heterochromia which she believed was beautiful. She informed him that it was just Clairvoyance going into depth explaining how it meant that unlike most people he could see and hear and communicate with the dead. The thought of it terrified him but Raymond and Chantelle together managed to calm him, Raymond with his usual calming aura that emanated from him and Chantelle with the calming and understanding way she spoke. They usually spent a few days each month just discussing weird things that they'd seen or heard and meditating, Chantelle revealing it was usually easier to meditate with a candle to focus on and to help clear his mind of all it's busyness and Raymond helped him to find his comfort in his sitting position and helped him remain calm through it all. The clairvoyance soon became a normal thing for Caspar and he learnt to live with it but that didn't stop the fact he was jumpy normally with the unannounced arrivals and still he found it difficult to distinguish occasionally the difference between what was real and living and what was dead and well still real but understandably he couldn't always be sure of what was what especially in the dark. At the age of 12 Raymond gave Caspar a top of the range camera and told him to take as many pictures as he could and to show the world what it looked like to see through his eyes for a change instead of mocking them; it brought a tear to Caspar's eye and after hugging it out Caspar became enthralled with taking the perfect photographs and documenting their adventures together allowing Caspar to keep mementos of most trips. Caspar's photographs were always seen as strong and unique with the potential to win competitions but he never entered any instead he preferred to run a blog where he uploaded them weekly and got a chance to universal show people what it was like to actually be him and how they weren't much different the only difference being the imagination and innovations to take beautiful photographs most wouldn't even think of or dare to take. The blog luckily also worked to shame the bullies who made his life a living hell though he wasn't spiteful, things just happened to fall into place that way. Caspar was once walking home when he was jumped by a group of bullies unhappy with his photographs and how they made them look unfortunately for him his big brother wasn't around he'd had to stay late at school and help with some school projects and the bullies pointed that fact out, that he was all alone, no big brother to help him now; they grabbed him and dragged him off into an abandoned building on an estate nearby dragging him into the basement and kicking and punching him leaving him bleeding and black and blue. They then walked off and left him spitting as they went wedging the door shut behind them to keep him trapped down in the basement with minimal signal for his holo caster and little chance of escaping the basement. Days went by with Caspar missing and Raymond was fully overwhelmed in his search to find him but the bullies were clever in a way who'd think to search where they put him, the answer was Chantelle who had a feeling she might know where he was; a spirit having told her; that she believed may have been Caspar's guardian angel. Rushing to where the spirit told her to go, Raymond a few paces ahead after she told him they moved to plank wedging the basement door shut calling out in the building "CASPAR! CASPAR WHERE ARE YOU!" in unison hearing the moaning in a corner of the basement and finding poor Caspar who was severely injured and was rushed to hospital where he spent a month and a bit being taken care of and helping him get back on his feet. Raymond vowed to find who did this and through Caspar's photographs he did finding them in a park at night laughing and drinking thinking they were all that but Raymond was about to prove the four of them wrong beating all of the bullies in the same way they'd done to his baby brother; who though not a baby that was still how he saw Caspar; leaving them laying in the street the same way they'd done and walking off the adrenaline having caused him to black out, he Never became violent like that but when people crossed the line he had to it was his natural instinct. He never even got caught for it as people simply put 2 and 2 together and put it down to justice doing it's work. When Caspar recovered he found it difficult to be in the dark it terrified him in a way nothing else ever could as it was an ever-lasting reminder that he almost died and that fear stays with him even to this day. His followers on the blog kept asking on him and Raymond noticed also noticing Caspar hadn't uploaded a picture in a while asking him about it and why he hadn't even taken a picture in a while. Caspar told Raymond how it was the pictures that got him into that mess and that he was never gonna take a photograph ever again; Raymond persisted and though it took him years and many friendly arguments with Caspar he did pick up the camera again but now his photographs had a darker touch to him which only faded upon Caspar getting his first pokemon. Caspar asked Raymond to go on a journey with him but Raymond knew that he couldn't baby Caspar forever telling Caspar that he had to make his own way in the world and forge a path that he chooses not one chosen for him, he had to deal with the good and the bad and that now his new pokemon had to be his best friend, companion and to look after him like Raymond used to and said that the only condition of Caspar going on his journey on his own was that they spoke every other day on their holo casters and that Caspar kept uploading his pictures to the blog as well as giving him a few other photographs of the places they went which were specially beautiful and enjoyable for him. Caspar though disappointed understood and maintained his connection with Raymond, leaving on his journey heading first to Littleroot Town where he would pay a visit to the professor to receive a pokedex he'd heard so much about and begin his journey to collect all of the gym badges in the world and become the best trainer that he can be. Defining Moments: His Birth Being bullied and protected by his brother Coming into his clairvoyant abilities Realizing his photographs could make a difference in the world Being attacked and left for dead in an pitch black abandoned building Getting his first pokemon Other Information Caspar is clairvoyant and can see and hear people who have passed on which can sometimes stress him out and cause him to get headaches making him want to be alone to try and meditate and control it so he can quiet things in his head down a bit. |

He loves to see new things and fly to new heights and always finds a little enjoyment in his life. That being said, he also has a tenancy to lash out toward those that betray things such as trust or friendship. He'd rather you be a honestly horrible person than a liar pretending otherwise. --- Original Trainer: Caspar Finch Ability: Rock Head Level: 5 Moveset: Iron Head, Ice Fang, Fire Fang, Thunder Fang, Wing Attack, Supersonic, Bite, Scary Face, Dragon Breath [EM] Happiness: 0 Exp: 0 |

- Spoiler:
A Pokemon drawn to technology just as Caspar is, and a ghost as well! Often rowdy and mischievous, its speedy spur of the moment decisions are a nice foil toward Caspar's own more analytical side.
A surprisingly speedy Pokemon that could match pace with even Caspar's adventurous spirit. Unrelenting and unfearful, its wide range of motion and sturdy body can both protect and assist its trainer on his journey. Not even the sky is the limit!
A fire type is the perfect Pokemon to drive the cold of darkness away. Litleo often shares the same sense of honor and loyalty as Caspar, and it would fight fiercely to help its friends.
Clear of mind, athletic, Meditite is a combination of many of Caspar's traits. While knowledgeable and patient, it can also have its wrathful moments and be unafraid to lash out with both fist and mind.
Another Pokemon connected to technology, albeit in a much different way than Rotom. Magnemite is somewhere between living being and technological machine. Certainly something to pique Caspar's interest as the two grow alongside one another.
