Birth Name: Torben Bythre Rier.
Current Name: Torben Bythre Rier. Prefers Doctor Rier, Professor Rier and Bythre.
Gender: Male.
Age: Forty nine.
Height: 5'3.
Sexuality: Heterosexual.
Status: open.
Occupation: An exiled researcher from the Kalos regions, currently in hiding.
Personality: Torben is an odd little man, talkative and not afraid to speak up but takes a darker, more colder-like personality when he wants something or is trying to haggle with someone. Especially considering that, despite his age, he can turn to darker methods and attempts. Of course, only if he has to and that is what works with people.
And on the other side of things, away from this business side of him, he carries himself in a formal manner. Torben does take some pride in himself but he certainly cannot walk with such a brisk pace anymore. But despite the formal appearance, Torben tends to be pretty religious but caring and compassionate. Both which are pretty good people traits. Yet he tends not to use this very often, considering this is a new region to him and he has yet to grasp a hold of how friendly people will be in return.
Different regions, different types of people. But who knows, maybe Torben can find out that the people of the Pheonix area are nicer than they seem. Despite the black jokers lurking about and such.
History: Torben was originally born in a small, quaint farm in the Unova reigion. With him were about five siblings, two drunkards of parents who could barely keep the farm running. Let alone hold a job. So life was difficult for Torben as a child, to say the least. Getting some schooling in but had to work the far as well, being a victim of their parents drunk rage from time to time too. Those times were not happy ones but they remain in his head to this day, some memories were terrible enough to be a blacked out blur though. Which he is thankful for. Nearing the age of twelve, he had to start sleeping with a gun under his pillow.
But that wasn't for long. The local authorities found out of the living conditions later on and the children were taken away. The youngest child, just a little younger than Torben, had been beaten severely before then and was rushed to the hospital where he died shortly after. Due to no longer having parents, they were sent to orphanages. Except for Torben who was sent to a psychiatric hospital, otherwise known as an insane asylum, mental hospital and so forth. Besides seeming a bit off, they thought he had been traumatized and therefore needed help. Help which wasn't wanted.
This was his new home for four years. A white cot, concrete walls, a steel door and the screams of other patients. Education was still provided for those who could handle it and Torben was one of the few. He had always been eager to learn after all, education helped him with so many things. So he did receive some education there but he also received some other things at the hospital. Things that cannot be mentioned and things Torben refuses to speak of.
At sixteen, he was finally released from the hospital and sent to a small orphanage. There he spent about a couple months before he was adopted by an elderly Asian couple. Both elders were about in their sixties, wanting to start a new life with a teenager to help them out and be part of their small family. Thus he was adopted. Shortly after adoption, Torben was moved to the Kalos region with the family. Helping unpack, sort things out and such.
In the Kalos region, he was finally given a better education. This education he continued, staying with the couple well past the age of eighteen. At twenty six, he finally did finish his years of education and took to the job of a researcher and scientist. It was an interesting job and it was one he liked. Yet shortly after obtaining such job, the couple who adopted him died. It was a sweet death, in their sleep and in no pain. So Torben was thankful but also pretty depressed about the loss. They had helped him so much and despite their age, he felt like he was legitimately loved and in an actual family.
So as years began to go by, Torben found himself growing with age and one of the better researchers in the Kalos region. He worked alongside Espurrs and other of such pokemon. His favorite pokemon were such creatures and Pangoro's too. He did have one Aurorus as well which was a species he was quite fond of. Other ones existed but these were just his favorites.
In over two decades, he had piles and piles of paperwork about all sorts of pokemon. Mostly ones from Kalos and Unova, despite how much he hated the Unova region in general. Yet a lot of his hard work was soon tossed away. This is because he started messing with things and doing things he shouldn't. When the government found out, they exiled him. More so, threatened if he wasn't out in two days he'd be exterminated. So with as much paper work, clothes and supplies he could bring- Torben fled to the Pheonix region. He misses his home dearly, slightly depressed how his research got destroyed and worried about the pokemon he had left behind. Yet it had to be done.
Besides the fact, he knows a couple workers are there to take care of the pokemon despite a careful eye on them. So hopefully he will be able to return to his lab, people and pokemon in one peace. Though Torben is growing old, nearly forty. So he knows there is the possibility he may not. Especially with potential bounty hunters after his head.
For now, he will remain in hiding in the Phoenix region.
Group: He is of neither groups [black or white].
Pokemon: n.a
Face Claim: Heinkel Wolfe from Hellsing.
