On the Hunt! (DW)

Ozni rarely made it out to the sticks, but this city-in-a-box concept had always intrigued him. In large part, because it was exatly the kind of place his mother and father would keep him away from. Doing charitable work in the dankest, poorest parts of the world? That was Arceus’s power at work. Exploring the wealthiest corners of Kalos? Just a typical family outing. But rubbing shoulders with the middle class? His mother would have a heart attack.


But he really needed to craft a new image for himself. People saw Adebayo Holdings as the toilet paper company that’d bought its own shit. The pharmaceutical and infant technology wings did better, but they were still a long way from perfect. Social media was full of people mocking the smiling suits in every ad campaign. Customers saw them as the ‘a nanab costs $10’ business. Old. Out-of-touch. Left behind. That impression was what Oz hoped to change.

Which is why he’d embraced his inner trainer. Or, at least, his stereotype of what a Pokemon trainer was. A baseball cap—for a sports team he didn’t know but whose mascot he liked—was turned backward. His windbreaker was color blocked and still smelled like brand new vinyl. Shorts revealed bottom legs much paler than their tops. The tennis shoes—part of his favorite line—was the only part of him that fit.


Above him, a Porygon-Z shifted in and out of focus. Around its neck was a little 8-bit bowtie with an oddly lens-like centerpiece. As Oz approached the blonde man, he lifted his hand in greeting. “Alola!” A nice young person to start things off on the right foot. “That’s a nice—” Uh, furry bug thing? Blue eyes? Larvastar? Larvitar? “--fluffer you got there.” When in doubt, wing it.


He stepped around a damp spot in the path. “Got any bites?” Hopefully this wasn’t one of those super ornery trainers. The whole lock eyes and battle to the death thing was old.

Sure, he could have sent anyone to pick up flowers. In truth, he could probably buy an entire greenhouse and get it staffed in a couple of weeks. But the idea of shoving this job on someone else felt wrong somehow. Something about it felt cheap, even though it’d save him a couple of hundred dollars. The same feeling came up when he tried to order delivery or grab a bouquet online.

They might not be each other’s plus one anymore, but she was still special. That meant she deserved the personal touch. After all, you only became DA for the first time once.

So, after a few minutes of sniffing around, he came upon a local florist with some great reviews. And, the few bad ones it had, read like an episode of Conspiracy Theorists Gone Wild. Who would peddle poisons out of a flower shop? The places were meant to mend relationships, not bring them to a screeching, very deadly halt.

The door opened with a merry little jangle, just like he’d expect from a place like this. The smell of tea and baked goods followed the auditor stimulus. But his enjoyment lasted all of two seconds before his eyes started watering and his body shuddered with a god awful sneeze. The Porygon-Z at shoulder level made beep of alarm, erupting in a shower of pixels . “BZZRT!” Up went its arms. Down. “BZZZZZZZT!”

That sounded like a ‘bless you’ to him. “Thanks, Sixy.” He wiped his nose, the tickling already creeping back up. Swallowing down the sneeze, he made his way to the countertop. There, he found a beautiful woman—like something from a Hallmark movie—folding flowers.

“Alola!” Oz sniffed. “I was wondering how fluent you are in—” His eyes watered. The tip of his nose gave a Bunnelby wiggle. “--ACHOO!” At least he covered his nose this time.

Hoenn Job Fair [Megathread/O]
POSTED ON Nov 22, 2022 4:36:53 GMT

The newest branch of Adebayo Holdings had seen its fair share of troubles. First, the apocalyptic nonsense happened. Then, a bunch of new competitors took the revived region by storm. Worst of all, however, was the CEO’s shoot-from-the-hip approach. At least, that was what the old guard whispered behind the new owner’s back. The loudest of these voices had originally spearheaded local recruitment efforts.

But one look at his job fair proposal got him kicked back to doing payroll. The booth had been boring. All the company-approved talking points fell between dishonest and banal. Then, of course, you had the decorations. The final nail in the Cofrarigus, though? The fact that the guy used transitions in his PowerPoint. That was the real travesty. Who the heck wanted to work for a company that took its tech advice from computer science teachers circa 2010?

After a few days remodeling the booth—and ordering a little bribery in the form of new tablets—Oz felt much better equipped to tackle the job. Which is why he insisted on manning the booth himself. It made great social media fodder and he bet kids these days would love taking photos with an honest-to-goodness billionaire. Even the ‘Down with Capitalism’ crowd could get a few followers out of it.

Decked out in the newer, more fun company merch, Ozni peered out at the crowd in front of him. Around him, large televisions broadcast the company’s culture in a series of fun training videos. A few plushies of the company’s mascot—a big pink Furret—lay at the front. Piled up behind him like a Black Friday blowout sal were about a dozen of the world’s top-end tablets. These were being raffled off via a company-branded raffle.

Looking up from his game of Angry Birds, the CEO found himself facing an empty space in front of him. Apparently, no one wanted to come down to the medical area. Probably because he was sitting next to a proctologist. It was a real—hah!--pain in the arse. Figuring they’d be quiet for a bit, he turned to his Eelektross with a trademark grin. “Hey, Stasia. Babe.” The eel looked up. “Can you man the ship for a little while?” Slim, scaly shoulders lifted in a shrug of assent. “Poppa’s gotta network.”

The suited woman beside the eel watched him leave with a tight little frown.

With his piece said, Oz rose from his seat and browsed the other booths. The military booth--manned by --immediately caught his attention.

Blue eyes sparked with mirth as he offered up a grin. But it wasn’t exactly his friendliest one. He might have defected to the dark side, but at least he didn’t treat kids like bubblegum.

“Running out of blood to grease the gears?” He snapped a picture.

Baby blues dropped back to his phone as he typed. Above his shoulders, his Porygon-Z flickered in and out of focus.

x - 20-40 - EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT - UP TO PLAYER


Oz fired his dad's last executive assistant and is on the hunt for a new one. He enjoys contrast and would go for someone either super tight-laced or super fun to film. They'd also have to be a "real" (aka poor) person with a background that'd make him look generous. Their job is to help the workaholic not only sleep but also stop him from his occasional crazy ideas. For example, he currently wants to emulate Daddy Warbucks. I'd like it if they were directly affected by something Oz did (like the company oil spill or the tainted medicine) or by something his dad did. This would make him more likely to hire him. Whoever it is, they have to be willing to deal with a genius man-child with a trollish, egotistical streak. Whoever it is gets paid EXTREMELY well and will receive a company car and numerous other perks.

[break]

APPEARANCE[break][break]

  • Dark-skinned with a swimmer's build
  • Has the bright blue eyes characteristic of his family
  • Usually wears the side of his hair short and the back long
  • Bounces between finely made suits and pajamas in public
  • Never seen without his phone or tablet
  • Has a knife scar on his lower abdomen from an angry 'fan'
  • Carries around little Lego versions of his employees
[break][break]

PERSONALITY[break][break]
MBTI: E/ISTP[break][break]
Likes: Technology, thrills, social media, attention, bright clothes, globetrotting, gossip, drama, kid's building toys, adventure radio shows, mystery radio shows, podcasts, naps, money, notoriety, his sister, licorice, lollipops, spicy things, computers, and dad jokes[break][break]
Dislikes: Heights, blood, suits and tuxes, gooey things, his father, mourners, sad moments, and birds[break][break]
Personality Traits: Germaphobe, self-absorbed, fun, vicious, introvert with extrovert shell, intelligent, childish, petty, dramatic, experimental, casual, workaholic, limelight hog, nerdy, and laid back.[break][break]
Family: Oz comes from a family with new money roots, but deep ones. His great-grandfather started a large energy business and grew it through grit and determination. The business was then passed to his son before being handed over to Oz's father. The latter was a terrible businessman and cut all kinds of corners. This utter abhorrence for workers' rights led to the largest coal collapse in Orre's history. In the wake of that, the old man cut ties completely with Orre and moved his family to Alola. In addition to his father, Oz also has an older sister (who was slated to take over until teaching called to her) and his mother. He also possesses two younger half-siblings and a very estranged fiance. He's currently looking to be Daddy Warbucks to some lost little kid in Hoenn.[break][break]
Pokemon: When it comes to Pokemon, Oz is rather ambivalent. He is not really a trainer, but he's also not cruel or heavy-handed. They live a pampered life, though rarely get much in the way of attention. All of his Pokemon were chosen because he thought they were funny, useful, or cool looking. For the camera, he's willing to smile and shake hands with any Pokemon.[break][break]
HISTORY[break][break]


  • Marrying more for business clout than anything, Oz's mother and father were wed. With them, their two companies became sisters. One focused on household goods and the other on coal, energy production, and alternative energy. As expected of them, they produced two children. A girl named Kalani and a younger brother, Ozni (Oz).
  • The two children were raised in the lap of luxury though not love. Much of their upbringing was handled by nannies and expensive tutors. They were also brought into the family business early.
  • After decades of running the company, Adebayo's founder handed it off to his only child. A somewhat blustering man prone to yelling, temper tantrums, and risk-taking. In pursuit of profit, he ended up causing the largest mine collapse in history. With a desire to deal with the drama, and a whole portfolio outside of coal, the old man pulled out of the affected region entirely.
  • After graduating high school, Oz set his sights on doing good in the world. He decided to get an engineering and computer science degree from a prominent school and then go out there and make a damned difference. During this period, he met and fell head over heels for a young law student.
  • Oz's father was not a good businessman. These scandals followed him throughout his reign. But none of them gave the board and family the power they needed to shove the guy out.
  • After completing her teaching degree, Oz's sister revoked her place in the inheritance line. Suddenly, her baby brother was one trip down the stairs from unspeakable power.
  • A terrible oil spill off the coast of Alola--where the family lived full-time--put the company in a terrible light. But it seemed Oz's father was going to get out scotch-free again until a mysterious source revealed his knowledge of cut corners. Pictures of his multiple affairs, with men and women alike, came close on the heels of the leaked emails.
  • Oz assumed the post of CEO, becoming the youngest head honcho in company history. Immediately, he booted out many of his father's corrupt confidantes and cut off non-profitable departments. Not liking the change she saw in him, his fiance left him and has sued them on more than one occasion.
  • Feeding his immense ego and megalomaniac streak (it's a family thing), Oz decided to expand his operations in Hoenn. Instead of coal and home goods, however, they focused on renewables, science, and environmental restoration work.
  • After a "fan," sent him a death threat, Oz decided to move to Hoenn and set up shop there.
