Determined. Actually quite innovative when the chips are down<br/><br/><strong>Weaknesses:</strong>Spoiled beyond all human comprehension<br/><br/><strong>Look/Appearance:</strong>Lydia stands about 5'6" and weighs 110 lbs. She has brown eyes and shoulder-length brown hair complete with rich-girl ringlets. She generally dresses in the latest fashions regardless of the occasion.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><span class="bbc_u">Student History</span></span><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Lydia doesn't get along with people, as she has very little actual experience interacting with them. Most of the people she knows are her servants who have taken to giving her a wide berth along with pretty much everything she wants. Her parents have little contact with her, being little inclined to engage in something so plebeian as raising their own child (this also makes her a bit resentful, though she'd never admit it.)<br/><br/><strong>Background:</strong>Biography: Lydia was born to extremely rich parents and raised in the most privileged of conditions. She was expected to take her place in high society and marry well, but her interest lay elsewhere. Namely - with pokemon. Even in her earliest years, she could be found "battling" her elegant porcelain dolls. And every time her parents or tutors attempted to draw her away from her pokehobby only deepened her fascination to the point of obsession. Probably the biggest mistake was when her indulgent parents actually bought her a pair of pokemon, hoping that the amount of effort necessary to train them would cure her of the habit once and for all. The plan failed as she took to them like a fish takes to water. Her relationship with her pokemon (at least one of them) in fact, are far better with any relationship she has with any human - a fact that has as much to do with her spoiled upbringing and overinflated estimation of self-worth as it does with her skills as a pokemon trainer both natural and acquired.<br/><br/>To add insult to injury, the family's attempts to keep their daughter's lower-middle class pokemon habit backfired completely. Largely prevented from battling<em>on</em>the estate, she continually conspired to sneak off into town to practice and develop her skills there. It was only a matter of time until she attracted the attention of one of the PTA scouts sent to the area. He apparently liked what he saw and recruited her. Lydia was thrilled. Her parents - not so much. But eventually her family gave in to the pressure - probably because she'd be somewhere far away, and they could lie about her attending finishing school somewhere in Johto to protect her (and more importantly, their) reputation.<br/><br/>Now at the PTA, Lydia is bound to learn a few hard lessons given her current arrogance and sense of entitlement. But underneath all that, there is a decent person waiting to be discovered, once she actually figures out how to treat people with mutual respect.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;"><span class="bbc_u">Other</span></span><br/><strong>Likes:</strong>Herself, being waited upon, shopping, pokemon battling<br/><strong>Dislikes:</strong>Not being treated according to her station, being told what to do<br/><strong>Ons/Offs:</strong>Lydia is generally inexperienced so most of the wilder stuff will drive her away very quickly.
