OC-TOBER
Character: Priam Conrad
Day 1- Intro he works for the league's science team during the day, and rocket's science team during the night. sometimes, he helps with investigation of the recent supernatural events on hoenn for both sides. sometimes, he goes to the front and proves he's not all talk. priam is a grunt who dabbles on every field his uneducated self can help on.
he's friendly. he's supportive. he's optimistic. he's tenacious. stubborn. loud. brash. aggressive. priam fits as many descriptions of youthful naivete that could cram in a person. a shame that he lives in the present and has never considered his future.
Day 2: Starter an eevee has always accompanied him as a child. given by his father to watch over him, it has become priam's safety net on most things. while interaction between the two is sparse, given the contrasting cold nature of the pokemon and priam's warmth, an unbreakable trust was there, becoming a catalyst to its evolution.
the psychic-type has been with him through thick and thin. it would be an understatement to say that the two do not share the same life experiences. his loyalty runs deep, even if he doesn't show it.
Day 3: Childhood he was a normal child, with the entire vermillion city as his playground. he made friends and connections with the entire neighborhood despite his young age, becoming a presence through his nature alone. it was why his sudden disappearance foreshadowed what was to follow with the rest of kanto.
taken in for blackmail, his father has opted to not risk the rest of the family and decided to leave priam's fate with rocket. the kid shouldered an unrealistic debt upon confirmation that the ransom won't be paid. it was then that the poor boy has adjusted to the criminal organization out of survival, becoming their errand boy of sorts.
but hey, at least he's not dead.
Day 4: Best Friend oscar clayton. he's pretty sure both parties aren't aware of how they got along so well since it just happened. there was no deep reasoning, nor an event that sparked it. they just... meshed well together.
out of everyone he has interacted with, oscar was the only one who would follow through any of his plans, and vice versa. most of the time, these plans weren't really good, but the real fun was the friends they made along the way.
Day 5: Talent as a child, he had no other means of paying the debt more than a few simple jobs that didn't actually make a dent to the interest of his overwhelming tab. it was when he resolved to petty crime just to make a living to get something in his mouth.
his hands were always deft enough to pickpocket and pick locks, trained by circumstances. the rise of electronic locks and digital banking has made these talents null, but suffice to say, he hasn't lost his touch yet.
Day 6: Favorite Pokemon his gabite earns the title of his favorite pokemon. it was one of the first pokemon he has ever gotten after rocket has taken him in, being given out by one of his father's previous colleagues to help protect him. while priam doesn't know their history, it helps skew his appreciation for the pokemon as the first good thing to happen to him since then.
he's sentimental about him, going out of his way to find ways to get him back to life after an incident that killed it before. priam has been overprotective of the gabite since then.
Day 7: Free Space! conrad isn't actually his last name, but the second part of his given name. he has opted to ditch his surname as a form of silent protest against fate, which he owes to childhood angst as well. he has since then accepted that the act was meaningless, but he's too deep in to take it back.
his real surname would've sounded cooler than conrad, but everyone already knows him by it, so he can't take it back. besides, mister conrad has a nice ring to it.
Day 8: Pokemon Center his usual sleeping spot, if not the city park or the woods, when he barely had anything besides his pokemon under his name. for a member of a terrorist criminal organization, priam abused free government services to the best of his abilities. he doesn't care if most of the people he interacts with on the daily hates the league if it helps him financially.
he has since then moved on from his previous financial status and has his own apartment now. still, old habits die hard and one can usually find him sleeping on one for an afternoon nap.
Day 9: First Victory priam inhales so much copium that everything is a victory for him. him getting kidnapped? that's just an express way to becoming independent! rocket giving him a mountain of debt? he's always going to have a goal to chase for! gabite dying? it's a reminder to not get too attached or else it stings bad!
pokemon battles don't mean much since most of his pokemon are geared towards utility and real life applications, but the first win he got when he was being forged into an ideal rocket grunt during his kanto days tasted sweet. it's the first taste of actual validation, and it was addicting for him.
