REPUBLIC: YUKINO Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow  |
FULL NAME Yukino Miura BACKGROUND Yukino was born 32 years ago on January 11, 1981, in Snowpoint City. Both her parents enjoyed skiing, and from a young age she took ski lessons on weekends. After the first time she sped ahead and left her parents panicking farther up the hill, she was first scolded, then given her first Pokemon: Growlithe. Though a fire type would've normally been ill-suited to a cold environment, Growlithe's thick coat combined with the fact that it had been raised in the snowy city caused it to have little trouble trailing after Yukino whenever she zoomed down a hill too fast. Her parents were worried she might veer off the trail by accident and get lost, but not enough so to stop her skiing -- after all, she would learn and get better, and until then she had a loyal fire type to keep her warm and lead help to her if she did get lost. No further incidents occurred, though, and Yukino treated the Growlithe more like a pet than a Pokemon for years until she was old enough to consider becoming a proper trainer. Given where she lived and her love for all things snow and ice, it was no surprise that she went almost exclusively after ice types. The ones that could be captured nearby came first, quickly building up close to a full team with little type variety to speak of. She slowly got used to battling, wanting her Pokemon to grow stronger like they would have if left in the wild, though she was upset by every injury, and would frequently try to get the Pokemon Center to deal with even minor cuts and scrapes that would heal on their own. Soon, though, she was a teenager and starting to see her Pokemon as creatures that could generally survive on their own and didn't need quite so much coddling. She was a much better skier than the young child that hadn't even fully grasped how to keep a reasonable speed going down a hill, and her battling skills had also improved, though her compassion for them continued and not one of them was permitted to learn any move reckless enough for the Pokemon to injure itself in the process of its own attack. On reaching adulthood, she immediately went into a job doing something she loved that had influenced her much as a child: ski instructor. Even some of her Pokemon found a niche in this job, helping to keep an eye on rambunctious students from both the air and the ground. Then the war hit. As the ones who started it all with their (in her opinion, anyway) ridiculous and excessive sanctions, Lux got Yukino's dislike almost immediately, regardless of their noble claims. Nox was at fault as well, but Yukino was happy so long as at least Lux stayed out of her city and Snowpoint remained peaceful -- after all, Nox didn't implement the sorts of restrictions and sanctions that Lux did, and though the methods were distasteful, they were the only ones fighting Lux. It hadn't continued forever, though, and the Battle of Snowpoint City pushed Yukino even farther anti-war than she had already been. She had avoided getting any farther into the battle than necessary, and had thus come out of it alive. However, Lux had won and taken over the city. Forced to either live under their rule or abandon her home and job, she stayed. She played the proper Lux citizen and switched jobs to the city's patrol, something that still allowed her to wear skis to work since they made moving around in the snow significantly easier. Though she had to avoid voicing her true opinions and live following Lux's oppressive rules, Yukino found a way to fight back without leaving the city: espionage. What had been a strong base for Nox would likely be a strong base for Lux after being captured, and her opinion of Nox was enough higher than that of Lux for her to join the rebel force in secret, continuing her job as normal but quietly mixing letters with Lux secrets into her usual mail bound for relatives that had fled the city after the bloody battle. Yukino had heard a little of the Pro-Isshu movement, but not enough to pay it any heed until it re-branded itself the Republic. The group was successfully keeping the war out of Unova, it seemed, though she was disappointed that they seemed to be making no moves to push out to other regions and force an end to the whole war. Hoping that they might get more ambitious as they grew, she threw her lot in with them while maintaining her connection with Nox. Any information she stumbled on went to both sides. She didn't like the idea of a repeat of the Battle of Snowpoint to change the city's allegiance again, but if inside information could help Nox retake the city with minimal bloodshed, she had no qualms continuing to provide it even after its 'lesser of two evils' status was supplanted by the least of three. OCCUPATION A skier who makes her living in Snowpoint's ski patrol and as a spy for Nox and the Republic. ALLEGIANCE Yukino isn't big on either side or war in general. Her goals align a little more with The Republic than with Lux or Nox, though she wants to end the war everywhere, not just keep it out of any one region. She blames Lux for the start of the war and the Battle of Snowpoint City, but she also blames Nox some for not being able to keep the enemy out of even such a naturally isolated city. She hates Lux through and through, but merely dislikes Nox and is unsatisfied with the extent of the Republic's goals. She sympathizes with both sides that aren't Lux, but ultimately thinks of herself as siding with the Republic more than either other side. TRAITS |
