NAME: Judas
NICKNAMES: "Gigantor" (Sabbith)
AGE: 30
BIRTHDAY: October 8
GENDER: Male
NATURE: Careful
POKEMON / HUMAN: Golurk
HOMETOWN: Castelia City
HISTORY:
Originally Decimus Rufius Balbanes, a soldier from several thousand years ago. He offered up himself in the process that creates Goletts in exchange for financial security for his sickly sister Camilla. However, his town never saw battle and thus he remained dormant until being transported for research through the bustling city of Castelia. Where a bump knocked him from the back of the truck.

Awakened in the dirty streets Castelia by a street gang, Judas spent his Golett years serving as muscle and enforcer for his newfound "family." Through numerous turf wars and other engagements, he grew tough and battlescarred. However, when the chips were down, he was left to explain the situation to the police all alone after a rather nasty brawl. Initially, he stuck to his guns and refused to rat out his friends, thus ending up sentenced to prison for aggravated assault and destruction of both public and private property.

However, as the weeks turned to months and then to years, Judas' stubborn resolve waivered and he began questioning his lot in life. Sure it was the only life he had known, but was it what he really wanted? This epiphany brought a change in him, both mentally and physically. He evolved into a Golurk, much to the chagrin of his jailers, but the now gentle giant gradually allayed their fears. He spent his time working out - old habits die hard after all - and getting the basest of educations from the books in the prison library. He also started to teach himself Yoga as a sort of mental and spiritual tempering to go with his physical conditioning.

When several of his fellow gangmembers ran afoul of the law several years later, Judas quietly acquiesced to aiding the authorities in their prosecution. While he felt bad for "turning" on his old friends, he hoped their time behind bars would be as enlightening to them as it was for him. With his willingness to assist the police in this matter, and his general good behavior ever since his evolution, Judas' sentence was shortened and he was eventually released. While he was happy to be out of prison, the Golurk was at a loss as to where to go and what to do with his life now.

He tried to return to Castelia and start over in his hometown, but old grudges ran deep... and Judas found opposition from both the other gangs and his old gang-members that had eluded capture. That, along with his criminal record, made trying to start a respectable life anywhere near Castelia rather difficult. So, the Golurk took to wandering, living off of odd jobs and the stipend he had been given for his labor in prison. Eventually he ended up in the rundown town of Pokette and, with the assistance of Tom Zook, converted his first floor into a gymnasium and started on his new life as a physical trainer for the residents of this surprisingly peaceful little corner of the world.

HOBBY: Yoga, Working Out
JOB: Personal Trainer, also Hired Labor to help balance out the budget
FAVORITE FOOD: Berry Smoothies (A bit of a guilty pleasure)
FAVORITE BERRY: Jaboca Berry
CATCHPHRASE: "I guess.", uses a lot a vocalized pauses and tends to speak with a sort of a "street" accent.
ACCESSORIES: He's rarely seen without his shackles, and tends to prefer cargo pants for being both comfortable and functional. Due to his build, he tends to eschew shirts. Should the need arise to dress nicely, he has dress pants and a tie from back when he tried to get hired in Castelia.

TRIVIA:
* Judas was originally oblivious of his previous life. It was only through the combination of the Day of the Dead - where Ghost-types regain their mortal form - and the magical abilities of the Lunar Wing that he was able to regain his memories as Decimus.

* Judas' shackles are rather sentimental to him, and he tries to keep them in good shape. The ones on his arms were broken in order to stop his new friends in Pokette from getting hurt. Despite having not repaired them, he takes good care of these shackles since they have sentimental value to him.

* Judas... isn't very intellectual. He has a lot of common sense and is rather streetwise, but his education consists only of what he learned from books in prison and of life thousands of years ago. As such, his knowledge base is rather limited.

* Judas has very weak conversational skills, mostly because he tries so hard to not try and come across as threatening or mean. This often leads to a lot of vocalized pauses and stumbling over words when he gets nervous.

* However, should he get mad, he tends to "regress" a bit. His stuttering usually drops away and his street accent gets more pronounced. He also tends to get more overbearing and physical like the "enforcer" he used to be.

* Currently in a relationship with Clarisse ( [link] ), however his lack of knowledge on the subject tends to result as him treating it much like a close friendship than anything deeper. He feels much more comfortable and open around her, and tends to stutter and pause less when she's around.

* He doesn't like the rain. Not due to being weak to Water (though Golurks are due to their typing), but because it was raining the day he was arrested and when he was sentenced. Rain just has a negative effect on him emotionally, making him irritable and short-tempered.

* Even though he isn't a bruiser for a gang anymore, his constant physical conditioning means he can still be quite dangerous in a fight. However, he tends to avoid trouble when possible, and will only get into a brawl if no other options are available.

* Should he get into a fight, his moveset is as follows:
- Hammer Arm
- Bulldoze
- Heavy Slam
- Fly


* This may or may not be Judas' theme song: [link]

Man, I haven't thought about doing something like this in a while. Still, it's one of those things that ISN'T combat-related... and I might be able to do something despite not being that much of an artist. And a little RP is always fun now and then.

Also, fun fact, I was tempted to give Judas prison pants... but then I figured that'd be a little too over the top.

And yes, I was mildly inspired by Cody of Final Fight/Street Fighter fame. Visually, anyway.
Though, according to others... he seems to be some sort of strange mix of Cody, Robo from Chrono Trigger, and Apachai from KenIchi. Go figure. o 3o/


UPDATE: Decided to make some adjustments to the profile based off how things have gone in the pre-opening RPs in the chat before it closed and other places. Dropped some things that never really got used and added in some clarifications. Hope you enjoy!

UPDATE v2.0: With people updating their pics of their characters, I felt I'd jump the bandwagon. Now Judas has those ROCK-HARD ABS often mentioned. Also, his History and Fun Facts have been updated a bit due to progression via RP.
