Now that Nero's back from a long trip outside the city (god kid, stop doing that), he has time to mess around with other people! And this means an obligatory plotting post for him.

Here are the basics for Nero:

• 21 years old (older than in canon due to background reasons)
• Shiny Gible Shifter, NidoranF starter named Blue Rose.
• Got picked up by a Ranger at a young age in the forest, nobody knows where he came from but he's definitely not Union-born. He prefers to keep mum about his origins (but in reality it's because he cant remember).
• Raised in an orphanage because he was a terrible little shit whom nobody wanted to foster, left the orphanage at sixteen, and joined the Rangers at seventeen. Tends to disappear into the wilderness for days at a time.
• Has issues with authority and prefers doing things on his own.
• Still an unrepentant shit.
• His right arm is blue, sandpaper-rough, and clawed. Enjoy.
ETA:
• Some people mistake him for Riku's brother because they're both outsiders and have light hair.

I'm completely fine with all of this being common knowledge in Union, by the way!

I'm looking for any CR, really. Probably people he's grown up around with in the orphanage, maybe kids he'd met on the street when he was younger (because he cant spend all his days behind walls), fellow Rangers, fellow dragon shifters, snark buddies and even enemies/rivals. I'd really like rivals and snark buddies for him because it just wouldn't be the same 8']

So I play a dragon Shifter who was around during the time of the Savior advocating for human-Pokemon peace and fell into a sleep for a few hundred years and lost most of her memories!

I'm kind of tempted to say that Tiki knew Nero's ancestor in some way.

[airguitarist]

Actually that would be pretty neat!

[thedivinevoice]

Awesome! She probably wouldn't remember but I read your app and thought it was pretty neat aha

[airguitarist]

Maybe she'd think he looks familiar or something. Though I still haven't set in stone what dragon his ancestor/Sparda proxy would be, just that his human form would have white hair too.

[thedivinevoice]

That works for me, sure!

Neroooooooo

He's not a dragon, but I do have this puppy Growlithe shifter video game protag who is always on the lookout for more snark buddies. He just came into town recently from hickville far, far away and is still getting his feet under him.

[airguitarist]

OOOOHHH okay Nero is very interested in outside settlements because he came from one so Hawke might get questions.

[hawkethat]

Hawke is totally okay answering questions! He's still getting used to life in the city so he stomps around outside town a lot with his tiny dog pokemon.

Chester's been in the Rangers since he was 13-14ish so they've probably met up before or been on teams. Snarky CR is definitely available B)

[airguitarist]

Hahaha, Chester may just know him as the guy who hates being in a group then.

[aniiue]

sounds good to him, chester hates it too lmao

[airguitarist]

They can like, get together and complain about assignments with groups.

Hello! Cordelia is a ranger, perhaps they're in the same circle of acquaintances?

[airguitarist]

Sure! Or she could know him by reputation as a loner and rebel who has issues with authority.

[bleeding_heart]

Hello! If Nero spends a lot of time in the wilderness, chances are he'll run into Merrill at some point since she's still sort of living in the forest herself. She only came to the city recently, so it's unlikely he's met her already unless it was in the past two weeks or so, but I'm always up for more CR.

[airguitarist]

I could work with the past two weeks or so, since I'm imagining he spent most of the past few months outside the city than in it!

[sunbath]

This is the wrong account. Pretend she's a Riku, but...

I'm still totally up for people mistaking Nero and Riku for bros if you are :3

[airguitarist]

YES that would be so hilarious
