Hobbies: Shopping Vander's a frequent at those trendy shops you don't have enough money to buy anything at. He'll shop in the women's section to snatch up all of those super cute pastel shirts with flowers and skitty faces on them, and all of those black jeggings you wish you could fit into. He's got a soft spot for spikes and studs and will get into a fight with anyone who claims they had their eyes on a shirt first. It's a good thing that Vander came into a bunch of cash when he was 22... Which leads to the explanation of one of his other favourite hobbies:
Gambling Born and raised in Goldenrod City, the Goldenrod Game Corner was of no mystery to Vander, and the moment he hit the legal age to gamble, he was there blowing all his money for the thrill of the lights and the sounds of winners all around him. After winning big time during a game of roulette, Vander was swimming in the coins, and even now, a few years later, he still enjoys popping back in to play slots for hours at a time. He knows it may be a waste of money, but the thrill of it all just draws him like a fly to honey.
Worshiping Giratina What, you're telling me Giratina isn't the embodiment of all things unholy? The Pokedex says it was banished for its violence! Whatever. Vander doesn't seem to notice, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. Giratina is ******** awesome and most people shudder at the idea of bringing the giant beast around. So that's why Vander is obsessed, constantly saying things like "ALL HAIL THE ALMIGHTY KING OF THE DISTORTION WORLD" and such when he gets excited. Sometimes, Vander dreams of meeting Giratina, and often times ends up sighing like a little school girl upon the thought.
Virtues: Entertaining Assuming you can stand his PA$TEL GO┼H soul, Vander's a pretty lively and fun guy. He likes being up and out doing things, and will try his best to make sure that everyone else is having fun, too.
Well Read Vander looks like he'd be an airhead-- He really does. But when he does decide to state his opinion on something, you can bet your a** that it is backed up with hours of research and scientifically proven facts. He knows a lot about a lot, having spent his time reading everything he could get his hands on as a kid. ... Plus all of the internet browsing he does now doesn't hurt.
Affectionate Need a hug? Vander's there to give you ten. Having a bad day? Goth boy will make sure to dote on you until you're feeling better. Even with all of his "******** yeah violence" and "Giratina, destroyer of worlds" talk, Vander understands that it sucks to be alone and lonely, so you can count on him to make sure you never feel that bullshit when he's around.
Flaws: Bullheaded If Vander is right, you are wrong, and he is going to tell you how wrong you are, and in every single way. He won't ever consider another alternative to what he knows is right, because what is right is right, and that is absolute fact. You'd have to be an idiot to think otherwise.
Opinionated Sweet as he is, Vander's got no filter when it comes to giving you his opinion, and he'll do it often. If he thinks something is grand, he'll go on about it, even if no one asked him to... And boy, you don't want to get him started on things he has a negative feeling toward. He'll nitpick until there is nothing left to pick at, and that's a big problem for someone who has sensitive feelings.
Restless If Vander's not doing anything (which is nearly never), he's not happy. He has the habit of talking someone's ear off, and will not shut up, even when hints are dropped. It's more than just a little annoying, but if he can't have something or someone to keep him distracted, he gets a little snappy.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Round and definitely never without eyeliner... But his eye colour changes from day to day due to his obsession with coloured contacts. You'll mostly see him wearing his baby blue circle lenses, though.
Hair: It was once brown. Once. Now Vander's hair is a pastel rainbow nightmare, ranging from baby pink, baby blue, lavender, and maybe a little bit of green if he's feeling feisty.
Face: TBD
Clothes: Have you ever looked up "Pastel Goth" on google? Vander will literally wear anything that fits under that category, but his favourite sweater is a light lavender with a white pentagram across the front. He'll mostly wear black skinny jeans or jeggings with some spiked black shoes with all of his outfits, but he's been known to wear other pastel colours down there from time to time.
Why'd They Join?: Because holy ********, splicing pokemon DNA must be some dark work of Giratina. Who wouldn't want to get in on that s**t?!
Goals: .... Yeah, we'll work on that.
