Ask to Join The Temple of Fandra Possible RP

Um, Hi there everyone. This will be my first, and hopefully not the last, RP on this Website. As I said before, I hope this RP goes well and doesn't get closed on the first post. Now on to the actual RP content:

In a time long before pokeballs were invented, the humans of the Fandra Continent thrived. The Fandra Continent was a huge landmass filled with a multitude of environments. In one side, you could find a scorching-hot desert, and if you walk a few feet away, you may come across a snow plains. The Fandra Continent is inhabited by Pokemon and humans alike. They lived side-by-side in complete harmony. Humans tamed Pokemon by showing strength and certain virtues that a specific Pokemon expected. Once the Pokemon is tamed through the Trial of Virtues, the Pokemon is bound to the human for eternity, unless the bond is broken in someway. However, some humans are unable to complete the Trail of Virtues to tame a Pokemon partner, causing some negative feelings. These people formed a group known as the Shadow Clan. Because of their inability to tame Pokemon, instead they captured Pokemon by force, making them do their bidding, even if it involves torture. The Shadow Clan goes through small towns and villages, ransacking them, stealing their resources, and kidnapping their Pokemon. In order to combat this looming threat, the people made a militia called The Vanguard. The Vanguard is composed of any capable, and willing, soldiers that are in partnership with a Pokemon. The two clans often go into struggles and minor battles, causing a sort of war in the continent. The main base of The Vanguard is known as the Temple of Fandra, there, recruits train, sleep, and eat. The Temple is located on the tallest mountain on the continent near the northern tip.

You will be RP-ing as a new recruit to the Vanguard or Shadow Clan. (Though if you contact me privately we could work out an alternative). You have just joined one of the two armies and are fresh to each of their ideals. Now for the rules: PLEASE READ!!!!!!

1. Follow the normal RP rules, I do NOT want this RP to get locked
2. No one-liners, if you do I will immediately report you, each post must be a minimum of 5 sentences.
3. Each person may only have ONE Pokemon, no matter what clan.
4. Remember, you have just now joined, you should not be the most experienced fighter ever.
5. This RP works like the anime in terms of battling; moves cause certain effects like Smokescreen causes the user to use a sneak attack, or Stone Edge can be used as a stepping-stone.
6. Have fun, but that kind of goes without saying right?

Past: Before he joined the Vanguard, he was a miner. He lived his life slowly, just going through the same routine everyday. It was just wake up, then eat, then mine, then eat again, then mine, then eat, then sleep. He followed this routine up until one day when his village was attacked. They came in large numbers, men dressed in all black, clad in swords and armor. He fought up until the very last one was dead; that was the 1500th man. With his hands bloody, face sweaty, and eyelids heavy he lumbered home and collapsed. He was the only survivor, and he was unaware of a watcher from high up in the mountain nearby. Later that night, his former watcher crept into his home and sat at his bedside. Arkus woke up with a jolt, when he noticed another presence in his room. The Daramuka, impressed with his performance, started to beam with pride. As Arkus placed his hand on the Pokemon's forehead, the Trial of Virtues was completed. Ever since that day, Arkus swore to get revenge on the people that murdered his village.

Name: Mathilde "Magnhild" Colsteinn. All that know her address her simply as Magnhild.
Age: 26
Gender: Female
Clan: Vanguard

Appearance:

Height: 5' 9"; willowy.
Weight: 140 lbs without armor.
Musculature: Little to none. What she lacks in this departure—entirely because of inexperience—, she ameliorates in quality armor.
Eyes: Hazel, close set.
Hair: Blonde, blatantly hacked off at the neck. The ramshackle bob cut leaves a boyish impression.
Clothing/Armor: Style of dress is very minimalist, though the lacy fragility of her blouses are reminiscent of a much prouder lifestyle. And if those are mere evidencing factors, her armor is a blatant sign. Made from polished bronze, it consists of a breastplate, plackard, pauldron, and fauld to defend her bosom and abdomen. A coat of arms is imprinted on the rightmost shoulder in gold. She acts as if she does know whose it is.
Weapon(s) of Choice: A one-handed battle-axe and wooden shield embellished with colorful images and inscriptions of warriors past and present.​

Skills:

+ A natural strategist who understands how to analyze a situation.
+ Adapts swiftly to unfavorable conditions.
+ No stranger to proper conduct. Uses flawless etiquette to lie cleanly through her teeth. Very talented at masking her intentions.​
Weaknesses:
- A spoiled upbringing has transfixed her with a childish perspective. She sees physical altercation as the only way to "prove oneself" and associates womanhood with weakness.
- Modesty silences her even in situations where she could greatly afford to speak.
- Immature to the art of battle, she still has much to learn.​

Personality:
Zealous and spirited, while at the same time, reticent and composed. She naturally shrinks away from other people and, aside from perfected manners, seems to struggle socially without having an exact outline of what to say. Nevertheless, her meticulousness is essential in some areas, though destructive in others. She is very hard on herself, pushing far past her boundaries in an effort to improve. She can be greatly tempestuous, though her fight to seem entirely stoic conceals this aspect of her by somewhat. Ultimately, her goal the greatest warrior she can is impeded by her obstinate refusal to regard her other personal strengths that don't fit her preconceptions, such as her potential as a talented strategist, and her overall naivete.

Past:
Before the organization of the Vanguard, a number of the people's strongest were enlisted under the Colsteinns, an aristocratic family of presumed nobles whose long lineage of merchants saw to their present opulence. Mathilde was born as yet another inheritor of their wealth and lived a very sheltered life throughout her adolescent years. The Colsteinns were a female-dominated family, but even in the presence of various matriarchs, it considered women to be more adept in certain areas than others, and thus strongly dissuaded its female members from partaking in anything overtly unladylike. Mathilde adhered to those terms just fine.

It appeared the Colsteinns were attempting to construct a militia of their own, one they could claim ownership over, but it would never be for certain as their assumed plans were cut short by a Shadow Clan ambush. Inevitably, the Colsteinns' prominence made them a target, and though soldiers in-the-making were present to combat the attackers, it was not as overwhelming a defeat as they expected. Clearly these "mere rogues" were more than that, capable now of holding their own against some of the strongest in Fandra. They were driven back, but not without departing with a large portion of the noble family's fortunes and many of its members assassinated.

Amidst some other brethren who were able to flee the scene, Mathilde survived the invasion, and looked upon the end results with despair. The Shadow Clan had left her home in ruination, the collapsed remains scattered with bodies and wounded Pokemon the invaders had heartlessly left behind. One of these was Valdis, stumbled upon in the forest surrounding the Colsteinn property. Clearly young, perilously injured, and traumatized from abandonment, Mathilde had to summon a sensational courage never once retrieved from within herself to get Valdís to trust her, and their partnership was sealed from then on.

It and was only her and the Archeops after that, no nobility to hide behind. In truth, Mathilde simmered with contempt for the Colsteinns who had allowed weakness to overtake them, and because she had adopted that womanly delicacy, she was homeless. In a fit of rage, Mathilde took a blade and chopped off her golden hair, proclaiming to anyone who could hear—basically, a confused Valdis—that she would no longer accept the frailty of womanhood, adopting the new title Magnhild.

After the Colsteinns destruction, the establishment of a militia force to combat the increasingly-destructive Shadow Clan became a heightened priority. Eventually, the Vanguard did grace the Fandra Continent and Magnhild, after roaming the forested landscape for a month or so, forced her way into its ranks.
