FAMILY TYPES; Virus Busters, Jungle Troopers, Dragon's Roar

APPEARANCE; casual clothes | winter outfit

Dawn has dark blue/black hair pulled back into a complicated hairstyle involving hairclips and ponytails. But then she just covers it up with a hat like the dork she is. Her eyes match the color of her hair. Dawn primarily dresses in that same black/blue with pink and red thrown in. She's skinny, mostly because her primary mode of transportation is riding a bike, and she's probably fairly short considering her age and build. (I'd headcanon around 5 foot or so!)

Since that dufflebag she carries around is huge, I'm going to assume that she comes wearing one outfit with the other in her bag. She spends all her time in the wilderness anyway, so assuming she has that on her person isn't too much of a stretch!

PERSONALITY;

Please keep in mind that my Dawn is from the Pokemon gameverse, therefore she is a silent protagonist. Though silent doesn't mean she's without a personality! I believe that her interaction with the plot and the other characters says a lot about her.

Dawn, first and foremost, is a person that loves pokemon. After all, she left home at twelve to battle gym leaders and raise pokemon. People don't do this on a whim, they generally have to have a passion for pokemon, and Dawn has that for sure. She also has a big heart. From saving the world (as mentioned above) to just helping out everyday folk, Dawn doesn't mind putting her own goals on hold to help other people. In fact, if she wasn't so charitable, she probably wouldn't have gotten mixed up in any of team Galactic's antics to begin with. I guess being kind comes with it's price sometimes, but Dawn doesn't seem to particularly mind.

She's also pretty determined to win through the gym leaders, the elite four, and everyone else that stood in her way. This also includes her going into an alternate dimension to fix the mistakes of an antisocial guy who decided to become a god which... is an incredibly fearless thing to do if you really think about it. Even with the weight of the world on her shoulders, Dawn tends to keep a level head. However, sometimes she can be a bit hesitant, unlike her childhood friend Barry who rushes into everything. I don't think this is cowardice by any means though, I just think she's being cautious. Dawn's a thoughtful person who thinks things out, but, ultimately, her big heart usually makes decisions for her. After all, if she was going purely off of brains all the time, she probably wouldn't have jumped into an alternate dimension to save the world.

There's also a lot you can tell about Dawn as she reacts to other people. She seems to earn the respect of others easily, including professors who study pokemon, showing that she's rather dependable. Dawn also stands up to Team Galactic and Cyrus. Her interactions with Cyrus are actually really interesting because I think it really shows that she's a good judge of character because she didn't trust Cyrus or buy into the idea that he wanted to make the world a better place, and Dawn was very right about that. I also think that her ultimate showdown with Cyrus shows that she's unwilling to back down from even the most dangerous situations. There's also her rival and childhood friend, Barry, who is... a bit energetic, to say the least. Okay, really, he's kind of a spaz. Though putting up with him for all of her life, I imagine that Dawn can't be without her patience, though I do headcanon some snark in there too. Though, it's all in good fun, as Dawn understands that Barry is a good friend considering how she's willing to follow him in his antics. As I've said, Dawn is a good judge of character, so if she didn't know that Barry wasn't a good kid she wouldn't have followed him outside of town in the very beginning of the game.

HISTORY; Dawn is taken from the end of Platinum, which has a similar plot to Diamond and Pearl with some changes. Since there really isn't a full plot of Platinum up on the net...

THIRD PERSON; 250 word sample

Dawn wakes up, rubbing her eyes. She sits up, discovering that she's on a train of some sort, with other people around her looking just as confused as she feels. She pulls her duffle bag close to her to take stock of what she has. Preserved foodstuffs, her change of clothes... her pokeballs... wait. Where were her pokeballs?

She began searching herself for her pokemon as the train pulled into it's stop. The other people filed off before her, before it occured to her that she should probably get off of the train. Wherever her pokeballs were, they obviously weren't on her person, and she wasn't going to get anywhere by sitting here and moping.

Exiting the train, she steps onto the platform to be greeted by... a talking pokemon? Something about destiny and a partner? She already had six partners that she was missing, but Culumon seemed to know absolutely nothing about them. She rubbed her face, wondering if they had gotten transferred to the pc, and were in Professor Rowan's care. Maybe she could call him later with this... D-Terminal, they called it? Dawn didn't particularly find it weird that she was being handed random technology, as this seems to happen to her fairly often.

She accepts the gifts, and then reads the message from Koushirou... this explains everything but her missing pokeballs. Before entering an alternate dimension to defeat a huge god pokemon, she might have not believed the digital world was a real thing. But now? Dawn's willing to accept pretty much anything. Though she did think of herself as done with her adventuring days, fate clearly had a different plan for her.

Now to find herself her partner. They should be around here somewhere, whoever they are...
