[cs=2][style=padding: 10 5 0 5; font-size:9px; font-family: verdana; text-align: justify;] [style=text-align: center; font-family: open sans condensed; font-size: 16px; border-bottom: solid 2px #dedede; margin-bottom: 4px; text-transform: center;]FULL NAME[/style] His name is Mikael Rogers pronounced as mih-KAH-el, so occasionally some people call him 'Mikk' or 'Mikkie' though you'd probably die if you called him the latter. His close friends can get away with nicknames. Those who are his elder and who don't know his name know him as "kid with the green eyes". He doesn't say much so Mikael is often referred to by his physical appearance. [style=text-align: center;font-family: open sans condensed; font-size: 16px; border-bottom: solid 2px #dedede; margin-bottom: 4px; text-transform: center;]BACKGROUND[/style] Mikael's story started nineteen years ago in Saffron City on March 27. As the first child of the happy couple, they had high hopes for him. It was back when Saffron City was a beautiful, prosperous city full of business. Silph Co. was in its prime age. Three years later, the happy Rogers couple had a cheerful daughter, and their parents raised them to be especially watchful of one another. They were to take care of each other. What neither of them knew was that this was truly preparation for what the future held for the Rogers. As Mikael approached his seventh year of life, Saffron City took a nosedive south. Gang violence rose in the city and when the Rogers patriarch lost his job. He was involved in illegal work, which made his wife incredibly anxious. But as long as he stayed out of enough trouble, she could say nothing. Of course, nothing was stopping him from going too far and a rival gang turned up on their doorstep and shot him to death. Seven year old Mikael returned home from school with his mother while Maria was over a friend's house. Numbly, he helped mop up the blood on the floor. But they couldn't call up the officials. They'd get arrested as accomplices. The Rogers' mother called up the morticians and a private funeral was held. The Rogers family patriarch was buried. Life went on. Mikael continued his schooling, as well did Maria for another year. Their mother scrapped by in any forms that she could do, and in a lawless city, you didn't have to look too hard to make money. But she never had much of a thick skin and the guilt of it began to build up on shoulders. One day, she couldn't take it anymore and left a note to eight-year-old Mikael before hanging herself with a belt. Perhaps it was fate that he would also walk in on his dead mother in her room. At eight years old, he packed his bags, locked the door to their parents' room, and gathered Maria's belongings before she came home from a friend's house with the simple words of, "We're leaving." He never stopped to tell Maria where they were going. He just knew they were leaving and never returning. Thus, the eight and five year old became street urchins. Mikael was quick and Maria typically managed to get by enough by going door to door with red eyes, pleading for something to eat. Homeless, it wasn't long before Mikael became acquainted with Griff. The boy was already a con artist genius and both Rogers siblings were grateful for his help. Griff never understood why Mikael seemed satisfied grubbing for his food. As he grew older, Mikael hit Vermillion City and managed to land himself a job with carrying crates and cargo at the docks. None of the others would take him since he technically never made it past grade school. And all the while, Mikael was too dense to realize that his younger sister was in a relationship with his best friend. In fact, he still doesn't know who the father of her baby was, but he's gotten over the initial fear of losing Maria. After she'd given birth and suffered the complications, he'd threatened to wring the man's neck who was responsible for bringing such suffering onto her. He'd been deathly afraid of losing her, and this fear never faded. It was then that he made the decision to join Lux in agreement that they would support the two of them and her hospital bills. The benefits of being a Lux soldier. He has been on the fighting ground ever since. [style=text-align: center;font-family: open sans condensed; font-size: 16px; border-bottom: solid 2px #dedede; margin-bottom: 4px; text-transform: center;]SEXUALITY[/style] Mikael is heterosexual. He's not too fond of general skinship, whether it be male or female, though he's shared a blanket with another on plenty of occasions. [style=text-align: center;font-family: open sans condensed; font-size: 16px; border-bottom: solid 2px #dedede; margin-bottom: 4px; text-transform: center;]OCCUPATION[/style] A soldier in the war, Mikael does as Lux commands. He doesn't have a Steelix and Wailord for nothing. Essentially an Ace Trainer, he takes on missions that Lux may assign to him. As long as it keeps money coming in, he is satisfied. A wanderer at best, he runs all the odd jobs and dirty work that Lux doesn't want their actual officers to take upon if they have a reputation and image to keep. But he doesn't mind too much. After all, the top dogs are always the ones who are running the world, isn't it? [style=text-align: center;font-family: open sans condensed; font-size: 16px; border-bottom: solid 2px #dedede; margin-bottom: 4px; text-transform: center;]ALLEGIANCE[/style] Mikael is the type of person who doesn't give a flying Ducklett about the circumstances surrounding the war. He believes that everyone is in the wrong and that the fighting is nonsense. But like nearly all neutral citizens, he has registered under the allegiance of Lux but does not appear to have any interest in actively fighting in the war for the time being. Of course, this does not mean that he has excluded himself from doing Lux's dirty work. It provides money, a form of income that he's direly in need. Lux has hospitals, doctors, resources. He's willing to do anything to help his sister, even if it means having to face his best friend on the opposite side of the war.
