**NEEDS PICS STILL**
Amon Lekas
Name: Amon Lekas
Nickname/Alias: N/A (Just goes by Amon)
Age: 20
Hometown: Iteria
Appearance:
Amon is a sturdily built young man. Not quite stocky, but quite muscular for his build..which would have been slender if it weren’t for the intense excercises he had to do – such as obstacle courses, weight lifting, and long distance running…not to mention hand-to-hand combad spars. His height of six feet two inches and weight of 187 lbs (79.8 kg) was impressive as well. He has golden amber eyes that, with a stare, could pierce through anything…even one’s soul (no, not really, but that sounds cool, no?). He’s light on his feet despite the heavy-duty, steel-toed leather black boots he wears that nearly go all the way up his calf. The boots are a necessity for soliders in this area. Lots of construction goes on in this developing region. Once nothing but villages, tents, and cave dwellings. Now on the vergeof becoming a thriving metropolis.
His Black boots matches his thick leather gloves that go up to his elbow. However, they seem out of black amongst the thick tan military uniform. On various parts of the uniform is the region’s emblem: A Circle with a mountain in it and a Camerupt is perched on top of this Mountain and a bright orange sun is in the corner. It’s rays shining down on the Camerupt. Tucked within his military jacket was a gun – locked and loaded. Luckily, he has never needed to use it outside of training. Perched atop of this thick black locks is a tan black military hat that matches his black boots and gloves (but unlike them, it’s made from the same material as the uniform; the hat is for formal wear only).
Speaking of those thick black locks, his hair was short – the longest bit of his hair was in the back where it reached the nape of his neck. The shortest part on the front part of the side of his head wasn’t that much shorter and ended at the bottom of his ears. He doesn’t believe in “bangs”. His hair was always neatly parted and combed. He didn’t want to embarrass the military (and his father) with messy hair. His face is angular and masculine. His nose was a true Montisman (Roman) nose…except for the slight bend it had..like it had been broken and healed incorrectly. His skin an olive colour (similar to Mediterranean people on our Earth). His main injury issue was from his first pokemon (which you’ll learn about later). The pokemon’s “childhood” left him with a scar across his left cheek and scattered nicks on his arms, legs, and torso. But he also did his own body modification with a few piercings and tattoos. His piercings were just among his ears. A small diamon on each lobe and a sleeper on the top of his left ear. His total amount of tattoos was two more or less. He had tribal aerodactyl-like (dragon-like) wings on his back. His other other? A little more intricate. It was a bleeding skull with a Camerupt standing on top. Underneath was a scroll with the these words written: “Live For Montisma Or Die”. (found on his right shoulder). Tattoos like this were notorious among young, loyal soldiers. Amon, obviously, was no exception.

sprite: (optional)
Personality:
If there was one word that people would use to describe Amon it would be loyal. But there’s a question to this. Is he loyal because he wants to be? Or is he loyal because he needs to be? This is a question that not even Amon can answer. At least not at this time. You see…Amon’s father is a well-known and well –respected military General. He is the one that introduced Amon into the military. While Amon wasn’t so keen on that due to personal reasons at first…He never let that on to his very strict father. It was always a “yes sir” “no sir” type of relationship with his father. Disrespect was never an issue. Amon never disrespected anyone..at least not outloud. Did he do it in his head? Well, that’s between him and Arceus. Not that Amon or any of his fellow Montisman people believe in Arceus. However, while he doesn’t show disrespect…he definitely doesn’t take disrespect either. Amon takes no Bulls***. At least not anymore….If there’s one thing his first pokemon told him. It was to be fearless and strong and to be in control. In everything outside of following orders, Amon HAD to have control over. He doesn’t like surprises. He doesn’t like twists or turns. He likes it his way. Only Superiors can tell him otherwise. Amon has convinced himself Montisma is everything. His life. His love. His passion. His strenghth. But…deep down…deeeep deeep down..Amon longs for something more. He just doesn’t know what.
Biography:
Amon was a Happy and Normal <i>privileged</i> Montisman Youth until the age of ten. At the age of ten, Amon witnessed a horrible tragedy. His own mother was gored to death by a rogue Tauros that escaped from a farm. Amon was never the same. He used to smile all the time. After that and even now he hardly ever does and when he does it’s more of an upward lip twitch rather than a full-out smile.
As a child before the incident, Amon had a deep love and respect for Pokemon. The incident changed that. Love turned to hate and respect turned to fear and disgust.
Before the incident, Amon wanted to join the Army and be just like his dad. However, after the incident, this was no longer the case since being in the military meant getting a pokemon handling license. However, his strict father wouldn’t let his son become just a normal citizen. He laid down the law and pretty much forced his son to face his fears. He made sure Amon interacted with his (the father’s) pokemon every day even though he could tell his son was scared sh*tless. He also made sure Amon did well in his pokemon handling classes. Thanks to his father and despite his fear never fully going away, he was able to scrap by and get his license at sixteen..the same year he was forced also to try out for the military. He had the charisma and patriotism and attitude to make a soldier..but his unease around pokemon showed through…the army didn’t accept him; however, the air force did. Thus begins our story.
Celebrating his acceptance, his father was able to pull some strings and get Amon a different pokemon other than the pidgey he was originally going to be assigned to. Instead, he got a peculiar, metallic egg. In any case, Amon was as ecstatic as a kid who got socks for their birthday. Despite his easiness, Amon still took care of the egg diligently, if just to impress his father. Eventually, the egg hatched into a Skarmory – Normally a skarmory would take to it’s “guardian” like it’s own true parent, but it sensed Amon’s fear and resentment and reciprocated it. In short, the two’s relationship was rocky at first..and this ruined his chance for a straightaway awesome bond. Amon would constantly have to battle with the young skarmory to get it to do what he wanted..resulting in quite a few scars for the young Amon, including a nasty one on his cheek. It was after a horrible incident that a bond started to form. When the Skarmory was two months olds (Malus), it escape from it’s cage and into the wild. Amon was forced by his father to look for it. For days, the search was fruitless until one day he entered a large cave and saw a gleam..there was Malus…unmoving. It looked dead and this brought horrible memories back from Amon’s past. Once again, he wasn’t able to save someone..something from a grizzly end. He eventually shook these memories away and went to gather the poor skarmory…seeing it more as an equal now than a monstrosity. To his surprise, the skarmory was shaking…It was still alive. It was just paralyzed by a zubat apparently. Using all his strength, Amon personally carried the young skamory back to his utility vehicle where a friend was waiting. He took care of Malus relentlessly until Malus made a full recovery. Thus, a bond was born..a strong one at that. Malus was the first pokemon Amon came to trust..and one did not gain Amon’s trust easily..even fellow humans had difficulty with that.
Skills:
*Amon is an excellent cook. He often was nominated as the head chef in his troop.
*Amon’s bond with his Skarmory (Malus) is so strong, that Amon and Malus can maneuver around the air almost effortlessly. It’s like they have an unspoken language.
*Amon is immune to girls so to speak. He is not interested in a love life at all at the moment. It causes a few people to wonder about him, but he assures everyone he’s just “not ready” and “not interested” in the current time. He calls himself “nonsexual” at times even.
*Hand-to-hand combat
Weaknesses:
*Despite working against this his entire life, he still has a fear of /slight/ fear of pokemon. It’s enough to make him flinch/grimace sometimes when approached by a pokemon that’s not his. His skarmory and pidgeotto are the only pokemon he has grown to be accustomed too. He’s even wary of his father’s pokemon, etc… Especially his father’s pokemon even, since they were used when he was a child to lessen his fear.
*He excels at hand to hand combat more than pokemon stuff such as warding off rogue pokemon and pokemon contests (which he and Malus tend to avoid). He wasn’t the best student at school to get his handling license and thus his knowledge of all attacks, etcetera, is limited. Often Malus has to bail Amon out by acting on his own free will..which is a risky move as stated by most Monstisman higher ups.

History: Talon was caught by Amon a few days past his nineteenth birthday. He was found with a broken wing around the Lacrymis mountains. Again, Amon felt the twinge of parental/protective behavior when spotting the injured pokemon so despite his slight fear, he gathered up the pokemon and nursed him back to health. Talon was given his name due to the scar on Amon’s arm which was caused by Talon freaking out when Amon gathered him up. But eventually Amon was able to calm the pidgeotto down and take him back to base. Eventually, they gained each other’s trust. In the end, Talon had no qualms being captured by Amon.
