(ACHIEVED) Talk about a Cold Shoulder~ A Dewgong Quest

[Koorie Shizuku]

Name: Koorie Shizuku
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Pokemon: Dewgong

Starting Stage (Pokemon or human): Human

Physical Description if Starting Human:


Personality: Koorie has a very standoffish personality. She prefers to be left alone and keep to herself. Once past her very icy outer shell, however, is a very kind person... deep, deep down (way deep down.) She is very loyal to those she considers as worthy friends. She does of one streak of deep set hatred, and that is towards the male 'species', as she refers to them.

History: Raised by a single mother and her older brother, Koorie believed she had a wonderful life. At least until her brother murdered their mother and attempted to murder Koorie before taking his own life. After taking a bullet through one shoulder and falling unconscious after she hit her head on the corner of the counter as she dove for cover, she recovered physically after a few months in the hospital, but never emotionally. Ever since then, she has avoided men at almost all costs, the exception being school teachers. Despite her 'problem' with men, she generally a loner. She considers people to be untrustworthy unless they prove themselves.

Having a beautiful voice, Koorie was in the chamber choir of her high school, as well as a small band she started. Her band, Breath of Ice, is the garage band that she started up in high school while she lived alone. She managed to hide that she had no parents by working a job when she wasn’t in school to pay for the roof over her head, claiming her parents were always on business trips.

During the summer, she saw an ad for some ‘medical testing’ and applied. She was pleased when she received a reply back within the week saying she had gotten the job and hoped that she would earn enough to get her band some new equipment and maybe even pay for a recording deal.

Strengths: She has a very strong will, as well as a very powerful mind topped by a beautiful singing voice. Because she sees everything as a ‘big picture’ she generally can give out good advice if she feels it’s deserved.

Weaknesses: She avoids human men at all costs. She tolerates them with the most limited patience, but has slowly gotten better over the years. This does hinder her in many cases, since she doesn't work at all with them, and generally thinks of them as incompetent and a waist of time. She also experiences pain in her shoulder from the shot wound.

Future Plans for Character or Any Extra Info: Eventually, I'm planing on having her being an organiser for a rise up in the labs.... MUCH much later.

I did not draw that picture, only edited the eye color to fit for the profile.

[Koorie Shizuku]

Dewgong (ジュゴン, Dewgong? Jugon in original Japanese language versions) is one of 493 fictional species from the Pokémon franchise. Its name is derived from the real animal which has a similar, but much larger, body: the dugong. In the beta versions of Red/Blue, Dewgong's name was originally going to be Manaty, a reference to the manatee.

Dewgong's appearance borrows some characteristics from the real species of the Sea Lion, the Pinniped Seal, the Beluga Whale and the aforementioned Dugong and Manatee. It has a large but slender body completely covered with thick, but smooth white fur, ending in a fan-shaped tail. Dewgong has a horn on top of its head. In the days of sailors Dewgong were often mistaken for mermaids.

Dewgong is an aquatic creature which prefers the icy cold water of the polar oceans. It can survive in such low temperatures by storing thermal energy inside its body, which enables it to continue swimming at a steady 8 knots (14.8 kilometres per hour) even in freezing waters. In fact, the colder the water, the more lively Dewgong gets.

Dewgong is an excellent swimmer. Its streamlined body is highly hydrodynamic and its long tail allows it to change direction quickly.
