7'1'' -- BISEXUAL -- MULTIPLE.
Group - Neutral.
Occupations -
- Aristocrat - Persephone doesn't flaunt it but he gained a lot of money from his relatives dying and him inheriting. It is locked away encase he ever needs it for anything, preferring not to just blow through it.
- Father - He doesn't come off as the person who wouldn't be a father figure but he is. Perse here has a daughter who is like a tomboy, she's about fifteen years old and is more like her mother than anything.
- War Veteran - Not as shocking because he wears his uniforms often but Persephone came from a region ravaged by war were he participated as a foot soldier.
- Business Owner - Persephone owns a Ski Resort near Ice City but relatively close to Route Fourteen. He inherited it from his grandparents after they passed away, having kept up with it for about five years.
- Store Clerk - If you find his house within the vast resort, he owns a store in it. Or somewhat close to it, because if you find him, he'll let you buy a pokemon that he has that isn't a type he specializes in.
- Ski Instructor - With his job came this, and this is basically him teaching others how to ski using the various slopes his resort and home have to offer.
- Special Coloration Breeder - On top of everything else, Perse decided he wanted to be a breeder. The other jobs more or less being forced upon him by relative deaths and wasn't something he was very interested in. Special Coloration interested him because he was quite curious about other appearances a pokemon can have, also being an ice and fairy specialist.

Personality -
When you first ask someone who has been around this male to describe how Persephone acts, one of the first things you'll get is either overconfident or lionhearted. The first one pretty much describes how Persephone thinks he can fix anything and overcome any challenge by himself- but not in the energetic and optimistic manner that some people with this trait would act with. No, he is more calm and slightly quiet. Especially towards strangers, and towards strangers he can actually come off as rather rude or blunt. So this does tend to leave a pretty much.. not-so-good dent in his impressions towards others, unlike the other trait he is described with. That being how lionhearted he can come off, which is also his pokemon side's nature.History -
To explain this trait further, it is actually quite easy. Considering that due to how he comes off as overconfident, he wants to seem like he can handle any situation even if he knows full well he can't. This comes with a more leadership-like personality which further leads into one of the traits of being lionhearted. That trait being bravery- and his bravery and overconfidence together make Persephone seem generally idiotic in lack of better words. This is because he is therefor ready to rush off into anything, which could be way over his head. And when things become to much for Persephone, he won't ask for help either. With all these traits compiled, to make it worse- this man is more stubborn than a stantler. Once his decision is made, there is no prying him from it. Unless you make the other option or deal seem better or you try to bribe him.
As for the other trait found in being lionhearted? That'd be determination. He will complete whatever task he is given, or do whatever he think must be done to get from point a to point b. Whatever mistakes he makes along the way are usually kept quit or hidden because he refuses to broadcast whatever tripped him up along the way to his goal or anything along that sort. And with this, Persephone has a large ego. If only to make the matters worse within his personality and their traits, but what did you expect from a man of this kind of nature? Certainly he would be far from a timid type of person due to being a war veteran, but he refuses to be the grump quiet type. Plus, he sees that he still can move fairly well due to keeping his body in shape because of the slopes.
A small family in Phoenix- two parents with a single son who was married to a wonderful little lady, newly weds at the time. They were living on ski resort their parents had, for the time being since they were ready to move to a different region which would be a major move. To the woman's home, since her parents just died and she was ready to take up their old home again. Having met her husband in Phoenix on a vacation to the ski resort. Yet after they leave home, this woman found out she was pregnant with her first child. Nine months later after settling down again in her home region with her husband, she had a child. Persephone Abakumov-Abalyshehv. No middle name and a combination of his fathers name- then mothers name. Persephone being named after a female figure in Greek Mythology. His mother had wanted a daughter, sensing an upcoming war since the tensions were high in the region but didn't want to leave. And she wanted a daughter to make sure they stayed out of the military encase war were to arise.Face Claim - Izac from Unlight.
He grew up in a large city, only speaking Russian which was the main language of the village. A very happy child with two caring parents, a good education and a lot of friends even if he had a fair amount of bullies that teased him for his name. A very brilliant child too, he was straight a's and in all honors classes. Persephone's mother was proud of him to say the least because of this, opposite of his father who thought he needed strength and muscles. So at seven, this father began to start to train his son. Make him work out, day after day but he was careful with Persephone's limits- pushing them at times but not forcing him outside of it. In time, he became strong. Or well, strong enough to impress a pretty girl at fifteen. The two quickly hit it off, starting to date which his parents improved of. Up until they were sixteen which is when teenage pregnancy occurred- the two had taken it to far and were rather under educated at the time. And Persephone wasn't a gijinka at the time so it was all possible.
This girl was forbidden to see Persephone for two years and she had a daughter, the two were heart broke over the forbidding too but they managed. They made a contract, saying they'd get together at the age of eighteen again- when they'd be legal age and they didn't need to worry about adults opinions. Yet something changed this, Persephone joined the military at the age of eighteen by his fathers encouragement. Shortly before he got together with his loved ones and now two year old daughter, both of them finishing their education too. This lover of his soon got married to him, a happy marriage that the parents soon accepted. Persephone's grandparents came over to the region for the wedding as well but briefly before returning to their resort. His new wife becoming a stay at home mother.
Two years later, war fled the region they had been living peacefully in. It was a civil war between four groups of people. Activists for Human Rights who thought that humans should be treated better than everything else, Activists for Gijinka Rights who were trying to get gijinka's to be equal to humans since they weren't accepted and discriminated, the government who wanted them to stop and let them deal with the situation as they saw fit and the Citizens. The Citizens who just wanted to accept both as equals, wanted the government to take care of the situation but was not an activist in anyway. The Government soon sided with the activists for gijinka's rights, things quickly getting out of control which caused the citizens to eventually side with the activist of human rights. Riots began to break out, the military got involved but as the black market began to arm the other side with the weaker advantages- things began to escalate and more people were harmed.
Of course, in those fire years of civil war, Persephone was involved in the mix. His body got scarred, he lost an eye but he climbed the ranks. In his first battle, he had a female Arcainine companion. It stayed with him, all the way to the end. The end being when he was twenty five. Being brutally injured in the chest, along side his Arcainine, he was rushed to a hospital. Government hired medics hurried to save his life, frantic to keep the warrior alive with his companion. In the end, they decided that they could only save one of them. That being Persephone, not caring about his companion. Yet, Persephone being slightly awake due to them being afraid to put him under, didn't like this. Their operating tables merely feet away. Moments after she passed away, her soul took over. They, the scientist, also gave him a dose of her dna in an attempt to make them a gijinka. Either way, it was another battle. The end outcome? He was a gijinka, his pokemon side being an Arcainine who was his partner.
During his time in the military, his mother and father died. Not wanting to be in the violence, they killed themselves. A quick death by a shot. His wife died from military brutality which shocked him and he grieved but at least he had his daughter. And after being taken care of, a couple months afterwards, the civil war was over. The region was devastated and permanently had fallen. The military was all released from their duties, them and whatever citizens left were encouraged to leave the region and find something new to settle down with. To take all their possessions with him. So that is what Persephone did, up and moving to the ski resort with whatever he had left and his daughter- along with her possessions. With him was a shiny Mienfoo he found on the streets on his departure.
Not long after they got there, his grandparents passed away from old age. He inherited their ski resort and their entire wealth, he was twenty six then. As for the next five years? Persephone managed the ski resort and managed learning English, his little daughter not yet learning the language of the region. Just recently, Persephone decided to set out on something he had been thinking about for a while. His mother's side job, his wife's dream job and something that was generally interesting because it dealt with studying genes- considering special coloration was involved. A special coloration breeder.
