-**Torinai** is an Artither belong to [[character:Batsen Reshigah]].
+**Torinai** is an [[species:Artither]] belong to [[character:Batsen Reshigah]]. Technically, by rights of pokémon lore, Torinai should be considered to have no gender, since the species is unique, but she goes by female gender pronouns and is biologically wired that way, though unable to produce eggs.
-===== Species =====
+===== Personality =====
-Artither is a [[:Sehto]]-specific unique pokémon that evolves to //Articuno// when befriended.
+Torinai (adequately) considers herself something special, making her fairly prissy and smug. She's full of energy, but rather unwilling to get her proverbial hands dirty by battling and is prone to upset fits at people expecting her to do anything of the sort. However, aware of her own inherent strength and wit, all it really does take to get her to battle is for her opponent to try to harm her. She'll take no battle advice from anyone except by coincidence, however - she's equipped with a powerful fighting instinct that makes training practically obsolete, as with all Legendaries.
-It's roughly palm-sized bird with soft white feathers that possess iridescence. It's cold to the touch,
+While she wouldn't use that phrase, she's a little afraid of humans that have the ability to recall her into her pokéball, and sports glum fantasies of being sold into worse slavery, lucidly placed into other contraptions and generally being plucked apart in some way because she's something special. As such, she's a little prone to overreaction - though that holds true for practically everything she does.
-which might on superficial inspection grant one the impression it's dead when it's really just asleep.

+==== Loyalties and Animosities in brief ====
+Ordered roughly from positive to negative, Torinai...
+  * ...kind of really liked [[character:Dejan Ravi]] in a grass-is-greener fashion and would have preferred him as a trainer to Batsen - not that she'd say as much, seeing as the preference of 'no trainer at all' is much stronger.
+  * ...tolerates [[character:Batsen Reshigah]] as an owner, figuring she owes him her life to some degree, but is not fundamentally happy with her continued 'incarceration', though she's developed an odd protective streak toward the human.
+  * ...holds her fellow pokémon in no particular high regard. It's best to consider her stance as 'pfft, commoners'. She finds their lack of wit irritating.
+  * ...is wary of human beings and spends much time during initial meetings thinking of escape plans for worst case scenarios.
+  * ...//deeply// mistrusts battle-prone pokémon trainers as 'the psychopaths they are'.

+===== Descriptions from Sessions =====
+Taken from [[plot:Reshigah]]:
+There are //legs// infront of her and they don't belong to Batsen or Dejan, not that Batsen or Dejan are necessarily soothing sights, but they're tolerable and they've yet to do something like expect her to actually listen to them by shouting or hitting her or threatening her with some other pokémon until she 'learns to defend herself' or something along those lines. She knows these things happen. For one, she's heard the two talk about that sort of thing in others. For two, she's witnessed it. Not often, just enough to be wary. She's not stupid, they'll probably get tired of her uselessness at some point and then what? Yep, yep.
+Either way this is someone else. Rather than focus on him like she should a potential enemy, her gaze whips around and… ah yes, there is Batsen. And Dejan, for that matter. She's not been traded away to some collector. Fantastic. Still in business.
+The avian, meanwhile, is quite happy to partake in this staring contest. She likes staring contests - largely because it's so easy to win them, seeing as she doesn't need to blink nearly as often as the squishy mammalian bipeds. Her right leg lifts, scratching idly at the scaled skin of her left leg, and she tilts her head. The human blinks. A light twitch like the vaguest acknowledging bob of her head results - oh yeah, another one won! She's pleased.
+Maybe if these humans are so keen on special moves, she should try one on one of them sometime. Maybe a bit of powder snow. Or even just a tackle. Or a peck. A peck would leave them guessing, wouldn't it? That was barely a special move at all, more like a regular move. It's weird, how humans have names for some of the things pokémon do and not for others. Why is Belch not a move? Why is Bristle Feathers not a move? She'd like Bristle Feathers to be a move. That'd be a thing she'd be quite happy to do for Batsen or Dejan. All. Day. Long.
+Innards? Those are //inside// her. As if following her prior thought, her feathers bristle, her beak opening, and she caws in warning protest, head tucked in between her shoulders.
+A //mate//? What an obscene suggestion. All right, she doesn't like this one. Batsen's better. Well. Batsen's better as long as he doesn't think this nutjob's advice is worth taking, at least, and Batsen's all human, and he's talking to another human, and he might be biased in that regard. On the flipside, she's confident she can peck out an eye or two if they try putting her in a pen with a Spearow in heat or something like that. Of her trainer, then of the pokémon, roughly in that order.
