HI GUYS
FMC said I can play. :3~
Name: Calais
Age: 18
Gender: Female (because almost everyone else is a guy, ahahaha this is an adventure I suck at playing girls)
Beastblood? (y/n): Yes
If so, What Pokemon: Seviper
Appearance: Calais is a surprisingly small Beastblood, particularly for one who happens to have snake Pokémon genes; she is, however, very flexible due to the fact that her bones are happy rotating little souls. While she was forced to learn how to walk upright, Calais is regularly found lying flat on the ground in an attempt to move fluidly like the wild snake Pokémon she sees. She can't actually do so, however, having forgotten her previous natural instinct (and also having the use of legs, which tends to get to places faster).
Her skin was originally a very dark, coffee-like brown, but after the Seviper's genes merged with her her skin is now... well it's not always black. When she's shed recently it's a glossy black but as they wear down you can see the dull colour of her 'normal' skin showing through. Golden hexagonal patterns are marked out across her forehead as armour of sorts, with purple and gold markings curving under her bright red eyes and effectively 'masking' half of her face. A purple lightning bolt-shaped mark is on her chest (although this is obviously not readily visible) and more of the similar hexagons make patterns down her back and onto her tail.
Calais' tail is almost comically long as it reaches over the top of her head, but this is a good thing seeing as it's her favoured choice of weapon. The blade is tipped with red and is almost always sickle-sharp, as she apparently has nothing better to do than whet it against rocks. You usually see it twined around her leg when she's not irritated or otherwise alert. She doesn't use her fangs as often as her tail but they're still pretty threatening. The same vibrant red as her eyes, they protrude out of her mouth and rest just past her chin. It makes it a bitch to brush the rest of her normal teeth, but considering they secrete poison Calais supposes it's not all that bad.
Oh right, her hair. Unsurprisingly it's a dark ash-blonde and is quite curly; it reaches down to the middle of her back although she usually ties it up and has it pinned neatly to her head. She really hates her hair... it's just girly. Ew.
History: Calais was a Beastblood created in France (hence her name), and was the only one of a series of Seviper Beastbloods to actually learn how to walk around like a human. The others were considered failures and 'sent away' -- as in, this is what Calais remembers happening rather than what actually happened -- and she was kept for a little while longer than most for testing. She was actually a glitch in the system, as she had a less amount of Seviper genes than the others did; however, considering her easy adaptation to walking on two legs (and knocking things over) she could hardly be considered a failure, as well.
One of the leading scientists in France, impressed with the Seviper Beastbloods' curious and adventurous nature (seriously why was she even able to get into these messes) eventually took Calais in as a guard for his wife and three children. As such she's been trained specifically in protecting people from danger rather than directly attacking, therefore making her perfect for an escort mission. The only time she's ever actually attacked someone without prompting or because of immediate danger to her employers was, of course, when a Zangoose Beastblood had entered her home (not just randomly, it happened to belong to another scientist who was paying a visit). To cut a long story short she won and that Zangoose had never been quite the same since.
Minus that one stroke of violence, her personality doesn't seem entirely suited to that of a guard... perhaps one to be guarded, but...
Personality: Calais is possibly the happiest and the most deceptive Beastblood who ever existed ever. She doesn't appear to have mentally reached the age of eleven yet, and is constantly being reminded to keep paying attention and to not constantly have to investigate every single remotely interesting thing she sees. A natural curiosity overrides almost everything else (except perhaps the 'KILL ZANGOOSE' gene) and she's always found poking into corners and asking what that does and if it'll explode if she tips it over. Being in a scientist's home for almost a decade, however, has made her ever-so-slightly cautious over messing with things she's not sure about, but to be honest if it doesn't involve work she'll probably be sitting messing around with it for hours.
For the most part Calais is an extremely immature and childish Beastblood; if you dare offend her she'll sulk for hours and she really, really hates sharing. She's also very easily jealous, particularly of normal human females -- she wishes she could put on make-up and look pretty. Unfortunately she is kind of stuck shedding her scales and having home-grown make-up already there covering half of her face. It's just not the same, you know? She's a little bit insecure about her appearance; she's always wanted to at least have been merged with a pretty or cute Pokémon, but her tail is pretty damn cool so she guesses it's okay. Except when it knocks things over. Which it does a lot, by the way.
Calais can be awfully sulky and grumpy if you get on the wrong side of her. She's pretty easily offended and will hold a grudge for a pretty long time; in fact, that's about the only thing she doesn't forget very easily. When she's annoyed she gets violent, so if you don't want to die of toxic shock due to a tailsword in the face I would move away quickly if she starts showing signs of wanting to tailsword you (possibly in other places).
Special Skills: Er, secretes venom from her tail and fangs. Extremely flexible. Knocking things over. Not appearing to be very threatening (aka deceptive). Uh... good at patting kittens?
Other: I like beans. But that's not really point.

Calais had been only vaguely paying attention to the metallic, droning voice of the large lump of metal and wires in the corner, her eyes sliding across to carefully observe the others on the escort mission. Bo-ring, there weren't any other snake-merged Beastbloods she could identify with and talk about the pain that was being unable to slither like she should; she was, however, pleased to note that there was a Breloom (weren't they like, part Poison?), a Gliscor and an incredibly fragrant Skuntank. Ahaha, score! Best revelation ever!
That might have seemed like an odd observation, but uh hello, toxic smells were always a good sign! The boy with black-and-purple hair she wasn't too sure of, though; uh, was he even a Beastblood at all? Whatever, she could interrogate him find out later.
Ignoring the other, non-interesting Pokémon, Calais turned her gaze back towards the computer, watching Kleine Schwester carefully as the panels showed directions. "Take haste?" she said, her accent making it clear that she came from the Ville. "I didn't read anything about a Haste, too! See, now I need to prepare for a double escort mission... gosh..."
Rolling her eyes, Calais turned to the others, tilting her head and tugging rather nervously at her blade-tipped tail. Uhm. She wasn't very good at all this introduction crap and oh dear it looked like some of them were acquainted already, she thought, blinking at the Skuntank and Breloom Beastbloods. Argh, she was behind! She was going to be alone for the entire mission and then nobody would care if she was viciously attacked by a... uh Poochyena or something! "I guess so... I wonder if the container floats by itself... oh technology is so cool, I wish I could float," she said cheerfully, blinking back over at Florina. How exactly was this going to work?
