Well, I said I had more to show. I wasn't lying! Here's Safume's updated character sheet with renditions of his install states, final intended form, and a new outfit. Extra information is in the alt text! Will be adding into the master thread soon too! #dboc #oc #db
Safume's base form rendition, done by KorallDIZ on Twitter.

Personality and General Info- 

Vindictive, cruel, calculating and petty to a fault. Safume possesses luxurious tastes and even loftier ambitions to match. One of my main villains for the U6 Sagas and by the time he reaches his peak? The strongest among them all.

One of the many moving cogs in the sixth universe's criminal underground and one of the primary sources of trafficking endangered species and artifacts across the cosmos, all of this is hidden with the exterior of a resort world by the name of Ajata, held in the far-off corners of the U6 Galactic Quadrants. 

Safume is a Solarian: a race of bird-like humanoids from Planet Galazio, a usually peaceful people who value knowledge, trade, and a religion tied to the stars. He hated them for their weakness and exiled himself from the planet, believing their way of life was a waste of potential that he lusted to seek after with his own hands.

His final goal is something few of his subordinates are aware of, but it is to defeat the Destroyer God Champa through whatever means he deems necessary. Zeus Plumage Safume. Same artist.

This power-up is induced through a permanent change in physiology caused by eating what are colloquially called volt candies, a confectionary from a planet bogged down by cosmic scale thunderstorms for most of the year. 

Safume's business pipeline just so happened to bring him some allies from there. The result of this install/powerup is voltage coursing through the user's body, hair or feathers becoming more jagged and shimmering gold with the raw amount of electricity on display, even being seen channeled through the fabric of his clothing. 

This state is geared towards quick-draw styled attacks, devastating strength, blistering speed, but the main flaw in it for him is that his movements appear to be straight forward and lacking somewhat in flexibility. 

A fighter who both possesses wit and enough speed to react to begin with, could possibly exploit this.  Helios Plumage Safume-

Currently the method of obtaining this state is unknown, Safume himself does not talk about it much. Helios Plumage is a fire-based state which makes his body burn brightly as the deepest most superheated depths of a volcano: direct contact becomes difficult, which compensates for the physiology of Solarians being weaker against blunt force compared to other species.

Any Ki attacks or contact with his scattered feathers can cause nerve destroying burns that are also capable of inducing paralysis into the opponent, albeit brief. 

Uoroboros Safume- 

The only true transformation among these three augmented states-- this form spawned from Safume reaching an epiphany over the course of the arc: a sickening twist of irony befalling his enemies. A battle against the Sun God, a duel with Treble who called upon the power of the world to fuel her, his people who value the stars more than strength, and finally the burning sun known as Chayot: a freak among the Saiyans whom Safume already detested from the offset.

His answer to all of them? To take Champa's throne? To blacken the stars themselves and force them to fuel his splendor, without care for synergy with the universe around him. 

The sheer power contained within this form distorts space and can hardly be contained within Safume's own body as it appears to be cracking at the seams. Uoroboros state Safume holds some control over stellar concepts and phenomenon in the form of gamma ray bursts, supernovas, plasma itself, and even gravity to some extent.

A truly fearsome opponent, and seemingly possessing only one weakness: his lack of finesse with the overwhelming might now at his fingertips.

Well since I've been here for long enough, reckon I'll start the master thread back up. With more text available this should be a little better. Starting with Chayot just like before! #oc #dboc #ocs #dragonball
Chayot's Sheet. Done by Hydito, and "brief" overview.

Chayot is a Saiyan born in the sixth universe, and one of my three main protagonists for my Dragonball story content. Born as a temporal anomaly, not meant to exist in his home timeline, and a member of the Citrine Lineage. A group of mutant Saiyans connected to the Super Saiyan God ritual. 

He was taken in by the Time Patrol to be studied at the tender age of 3 years old, raised by Chronoa's intended successor as her own. being raised in Conton City lead directly to a deep seeded ambition for the spotlight, an adoration for the Z fighters and a desire to be a hero like he viewed them as. 

Taking up martial arts and intending to become the leader of a Time Patrol Recon Squad, wrenches were thrown into this plan constantly as his childhood friends and intended squadmates drifted apart from him due to conflict stemming from his single-minded obsession with this cause. 

As a result of constant infighting between him and one of these childhood friends, who had become a more snobbish elite warrior. He was eventually sent off begrudgingly to perform recon alone, and offered the position he longed for as long as he could enscript allies.

This leads to T70, the main setting of things thus far and his fateful meeting with the other two main characters: Chayot's sister, Ruta, and her accomplice, Treble. 

Several arcs and over 4 years' worth of adventuring and fighting, Chayot grapples now with discovering the meaning to his own existence, the truth of his idols, and whether or not he can fill the lofty shoes his childhood ambitions set out for him.

Smaller details outside of the overview:
-Chayot is voiced by Junya Enoki in Japanese and Max Mittelman in English currently as VA claims.
-Huge fan of spicy foods, Tonkotsu Ramen and chicken wings especially.
-Born on June 1st. 
-Is skilled with the piano
-Collected superhero comics and merch until he was about 15. Including Clean God and Great Saiyaman.

Chayot sparring with Ruta, done by a friend on Discord with the tag Badumtss. He doesn't have a BSky or Twitter to my knowledge, but he's still goated. 

Combat related profile.

Practicing Martial Arts and Ki Control from about 6 years old, alongside the potent potential of a Saiyan? Chayot is of course, rather strong. Proficient in several fighting styles, including the Turtle School's signature, Monkey Style Kung Fu, and taking traits of Capoeria into practice. 

Heavily inspired by Goku, Yamcha, and a slew of Earth and Conton City's martial artists. 

His most notable accolades are having created his own variant of the Dragon Fist, mastery of converting his Ki into lightning, and being one of the few full blood Saiyans in the setting capable of manipulating magic.

This comes in the form of one of his signature techniques, the Lifeblood Fist or Seimei Sei-Ken. A powerful application of life magic that can overflow the victim's senses, skewing their reactions, amplifying any and all sensations, and when applied rigorously enough is capable of producing out of body experiences, hallucinations, or making the victim's heart explode in their chest outright. A technique taught to him by his first true sensei, and he is currently the last known living user of it. 

Taking inspiration from the North Kai's signature technique, he hatched the idea of turning this golden fist onto himself to amplify his own reactions beyond their peak, a risky gambit but one that's aided him in battle a few times to this point. 

As a Saiyan of course, he's capable of Super Saiyan transformations as well. Up to Super Saiyan 3, but commonly relies on a further mastered variant of Super Saiyan 2 instead, as its less straining and more supportive of his approach to fighting.

...However he has another ace up his sleeve.Citrine Essence Chayot. Part of a larger artpiece I got done by Amartbee. 

Detailing Citrine. 

A transformation that embodies the stone it's named after, alongside the sun itself. The Super Saiyan God ritual was something that DID happen as a pivotal event in the history of the Saiyans of both universes in my setting, the fate of the warrior race hinging entirely upon the ritual's outcome.

Intervention from outside sources, including the Planet's Kami, which yearned for peace and an end to the constant bloodshed, combined with the exposure of the participants to the incredible power of the Super Saiyan God lead to all 5 of the noble warriors who took part in the ritual to hold host to mutations.

Citrine is one of two that was not simply lost to history, showing up occasionally in records and folklore as a transformation which embodies the light of the sun, granting tremendous power to the user, but with dawn. . . dusk also comes.

This lineage is feared by many of those who are knowledgeable of it, due to the fact that every time it has manifested in historical records. Disasters soon followed, rumored to be the result of the user's mind and soul itself deteriorating into little more than a feral husk.

This transformation along with what is known as "Super Saiyan Berserk" (Kale's transformation in Dragon Ball Super) are often confused in U6 Saiyan myth as the fabled "Demon Saiyan" which shows up once every thousand years.

The truth about this form however is that it allows the user to absorb the impurities of the world around them and an accelerated adaptation more similar to imprinting. This trait is imperfect however and leads to Citrine corrupting the user's mind and body. This exact thing has happened to Chayot before.

Something is missing to this transformation, and nobody truly knows yet what would happen if that missing piece was added to the puzzle.

Second one. #dboc #oc #ocs #dragonball
Treble's Sheet, done by Amartbee and overview. 

A girl born to parents who became renowned war criminals on Planet Sadala-- Treble was abandoned shortly after birth and grew up not only an orphan, but an outcast even among the undesirables. A passive and gentle Saiyan lacking the ambition or understanding of the thrills combat provides, let alone the concept of the war hero culture that runs rampant on Sadala.

She spent many of her formative years, essentially alone, not despised by any means, but moreso invisible, a background character in the lives of others. 

This all changed upon meeting her partner, and Chayot's sister, Ruta. A teenager at the time and a thief with an up-and-coming name in the slums of Saiyan Society. Having chosen to swipe fresh shipments of meat from that very same facility, a young Treble saw that this other girl was also alone and elected to leave her comforts behind and trail along, growing a sense of respect for her guts and ambition.

The two essentially grew up together fighting off soldiers of the Sadalan Army, attempting to take Ruta into custody or exile her off the planet, and repeatedly failing as a result of the duo's coordination. 

This was the case until a stronger soldier, one possessing eyes and aura of Jade Green assailed the two and beat them to the point of being at the edge of defeat. Treble's desperation in that moment, close to losing the nearest person to family she had, caused her to awaken as the first Super Saiyan of the main trio.

Following a narrow victory as a consequence of this transformation? Ruta begrudgingly agreed with Treble's growing sentiment to leave Planet Sadala behind, the pair stealing a ship.

As a result of outside forces, their voyage did not go as they expected, and they wound up crossing into Universe 7. Starting a chance encounter and a new chapter in their lives, one which Treble was receptive of.

...Ruta however...will be explained later. Mantra Treble done by Dazz/drag0nartzz. Combat Profile

Treble's role in battle is typically defined as that of the back-up dancer to Ruta, Chayot, or some other heavy hitter. Not quite as gifted in raw power, but compensating with having elemental magic in her arsenal, along with a fine attunement to the creation of energy constructs such as daggers, long-swords, shields, and other weaponry. 

Her knowledge on martial arts comes from secondhand gleaning from members of Sadala's military, Chayot, and her own ingenuity. Once close combat is on the table, she typically resorts to dismantling an opponent with dance-like moves, using either bladed constructs, ice, or lightning to outright prevent them from fighting back any longer.

If shortly described as an actual martial arts style on Earth. It could be best compared to Crane Kung Fu.

Treble's transformations shown onscreen included Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan 2 with enhancements, and the one pictured here which is labeled Mantra State. The result of a Genki Infusion technique from the Kai's. An ability that allows one to hear the voice of the planets and stars, synchronizing with them to become what can only be described as a living spirit bomb.

This technique's only known limitations are the universe itself and how much of it the user's body can draw in before losing that synergy and turning into stone. 

Treble emote done by kadproductionz. Misc stuff.

-Treble's inspirations include Tifa, Aerith. the partner from PMD2, and my attempt to do a take on Caulifla and Kale's dynamic.
-Is the only main character of mine training directly under a Kai at this moment.
-Is the only one who has custom voice work done, by Hannah Chapin. Not sure if she's on here yet.
-Despite Chayot initially being my main character. Treble has been more associated with me in recent times.
-I've considered giving her a life magic ability similar to the Kaioshin's ability to create, but having it work similar to alchemy from FMA. Not sure if I still plan on it.

Third. It's time for Ruta as well. Rounding out the main trio. #dboc #oc #ocs #dragonball
Ruta's character sheet, also done by Amartbee. Another overview.

The rude, brutish, and crass brawler of the Sadala Trio and the eldest. Ruta was born and raised on Planet Sadala unlike her brother by Lage and Mirli, both decently achieved warriors of the Sadala Defense force, until her father was exiled from the planet without much explanation.

Ruta at the tender age of around 8 years old, eventually fled from home as a direct cause of this, seeing her mother become miserable and both of them were fearful that she'd be taken next. 

Growing up entirely living off the slums of Sadala, fruit of the land, and occasional assistance from members of Caulifla's gang, she grew up a delinquent and a thorn in the side of the lower rank soldiers sent to apprehend her. 

Eventually meeting a young Treble and growing bolder as she'd finally gotten a partner in crime, picking more fights, having a small haul of treasure under her belt rather than just food and necessities, and growing into more of an inconvenience. 

This directly causes the events stated in Treble's overview and the two choose to eventually leave Sadala behind, begrudgingly in Ruta's case.

Crossing entire universes and winding up meeting with a brother she never knew even existed, and only catching on later. She wound up roped into life on Earth, and despite her love for picking fights and thievery, she's started to acclimate to the Earth's customs. 

Despite harboring a newfound fondness for the varied fighters, delicious food, and people who truly seem to care about her despite a violent and crude nature? She still lived in the past for a long time, regarding the family she lost at a tender age, and sought to get that back at all costs, pursuing greater strength for that exact purpose.

The direct result of this being the Sadala arc.Ruta sparring with Chayot, combat related info time.

Ruta's fighting style is insanely aggressive, best compared to that of an in-boxer who is obsessed with pressuring her opponents with swift and powerful bombardments. 

Capable of transforming at will into three states; Super Saiyan, Super Saiyan 2, and surprisingly enough Super Saiyan 3. She was the first to make the ascension past the second level and as a result of witnessing the grievous stamina drain, Treble and Chayot both chose to focus on Super Saiyan 2 instead and enhance it further, running off the hypothesis that if Super Saiyan had variants like the Grades, that Super Saiyan 2 must be similar.

Super Saiyan 3 has been an active detriment with Ruta's fighting style for a long time, making her require support if she was up against an opponent strong enough to necessitate the usage of the form and sufficiently durable to survive the onslaught. She's been working on alleviating this, though.

Additionally, she is a master of a more niche fighting style known as the Spinning Iron Top Fist, or Beigoma Ryu. A technique which turns the very winds into the user's weapon, forming kiai which can be controlled and made into piercing shots, drill like rotating strikes, tornadoes, or even simply cutting slashes. This is coupled with the ability to forge fairly advanced ki constructs such as war hammers or great swords.

All in all, she is a fairly seasoned powerhouse fighter, and has the explosive strength to justify a straighter approach

I've left the master thread to rot for a while, gonna probably get two or three out this weekend though! A break from the Saiyans, meet Nichi! The Daybreak Kai. #dboc #oc #ocs #dragonball
Casual Hoodie Nichi art done by Daiku (friend of mine on Discord)

Nichi is a member of the Glind Tribe/Kaioshin, living in the sixth universe and at one point was a candidate to overtake Fuwa as the next overseer of the universe. 

This however deeply contradicted the admiration for mortal life which Nichi had gained through consistent visits to the lower realms alongside a companion. Despite being trained for the position of Supreme Kai? He refused this, and went rouge, intent on watching over mortals in a more direct manner-- believing that he could aid them on the right path to prospering, and that Universe 6's pitifully low mortal level following the Tournament of Power, could be blamed on the hands-off approach.

In his ten thousand years of life currently he has seen the rise and fall of empires, the birth of legends, and blooming cultures of all varieties. Causing him to gain a deep respect particularly for the human means of expression such as art or especially music. Having incorporated musical instruments into his variety of magical techniques and honing this craft to such a fine point that the songs he plays can not only give life but be felt in the soul of those who listen. 

Upon his debut into the story, he finds Treble, who had been left behind through a freak accident on Planet Sadala and enlists her assistance in taking down a threat to the stability of the sixth universe. One that Nichi fears could not only tear apart countless civilizations mercilessly but, be intent on slaughtering the God of Destruction Champa. The pair formed a partner/mentorship and through him? Treble has realized even a universe which treats her with apathy shouldn't be left to suffer. The first illustration of Nichi in Supreme Kai robe, done by LeraDraws on Twitter. 
Personality

In most cases Nichi comes across as a mellow and well-spoken individual, remaining cordial with most people he comes across and HIGHLY inquisitive on foreign cultures across the universe. 

Alongside this he holds a deep distaste for the idea of standing idly by as the universe unfolds around him, inaction and neutrality in his eyes are simply allowing injustice to continue when something could otherwise be done.

Extra Details  

Nichi's fighting style would be most closely associated with Aikido and tactically speaking, he's keener on playing support. Due to techniques such as paralysis and the Kai Kai? He is plenty adept with this. 

A signature technique of his is the Kai Kai KO which consists of grabbing onto the victim and warping in a frenzy to induce nausea. 

Ironically enough, a consequence of his training for Supreme Kai not being fully complete: is that for long distance usage of Kai Kai, he usually requires exact locations of the destination (I.E. the general star coordinates of a planet) 

Aside from this it is also notable that Nichi has witnessed multiple notable races fall over time and these have influenced his choice to go rouge: Humans and Tuffles happen to be examples of this. Both examples hit Nichi rather hard as he had a fondness for Earth's culture and believed the technological prowess of the Tuffles could've brought greatness to the universe, yet the corruption running rampant through their people. . . brought them to ruin.

Details of Nichi's design include the stardust halo over his head as a common piece, eyes of a piercing blue (think somewhat similar to Gojo Satoru from JJK's Season 1.), 

Nichi's favorite foods are cheesecake and various seafood dishes from across U6's North Quadrant.

As promised, another one and continuing the brief Saiyan break. Karuba, my second try at a Namekian character. #ocs #oc #dragonball #dboc
Karuba render done by Daiku.

Overview

Karuiba is a Namekian from the sixth universe-- taking cues from sea slugs in the form of feelers across his arms and unique antannae. This is also reflective from his diet, that of a pescatarian, preference for oceanic climates, bioluminscence, and the ability to manipulate toxins from these feelers. 

These alternate Namekians are simply part of the bioversity in the sixth universe's Namekain population, albeit uncommon in comparison to the more well-known garden variety.

Karuba's own personal story is one known in folklore in the sixth universe, he as an individual is one wrought with both mystery and tragedy alike. As he was one of the few living creatures in the sixth universe granted immortality through the dragon balls, and the ten thousand years of misery which came from it, among other blunders, are the reason that the dragon balls are well guarded artifacts on Namek: unlike the seventh universe, the only way one will find them off of Namek's soil, is by hunting down the super dragon balls. 

Karuba was granted eternal life in an attempt to protect his tribe's home world from a threat destined to come to it, but it'd never come. The intended purpose behind his wish for immortality was moot, and instead of living to become the world's protector, he watched civilization shrivel up and the planet itself die steadily over time. 

Over ten thousand years have passed since that day according to folk tale and Karuba now lives as a hermit passing across the galaxy, lacking any sort of purpose or most attachments. 

He longs for either a proper death or a reason to continue living, despite the burden he was given. 
Second Karuba render done by Rasbipac on Twitter.

Extra Notes.

Karuba's favorite food is fresh caught and grilled fish with puff-puff fruit glaze (the fruit from the Dragonball Super Manga, which Beerus and Champa fought over on their birthdays.)

Karuba, much like Nichi, has witnessed the rise and fall of several civilizations. Unlike the Kai though? A "simple" Namekian was never meant to linger around for long enough to witness such things, never mentally prepared.

Witnessing people make the same mistakes and constant hardship coming from them, has caused him to choose a life of seclusion. No longer capable of tolerating the grief that comes with such things, and yet, constantly recording history in journals. The folk tales of those who had met him claim that this is a consequence of memory issues that come with having been this long lived, but nothing is known for sure.

Karuba at one point had saved King Sadala from an assassination attempt, gaining a respect for the Saiyan royal figure due to his valiant efforts of keeping his people on the path he deemed best, at any cost. Viewing Sadala as one of the few leaders of the universe with potential to avoid pitfalls that had struck countless others before him. 

His current voice actor claim is Keith Silverstein 
Despite his natural ability to manipulate toxins due to the feelers on his arms-- he prefers to keep his usage of them in his fighting style to a minimum. He typically only uses these toxins enough to paralyze and knock out any opponents, viewing further use of them than this as cruel due to the pain it can inflict. 

Inspired by the possible ramifications of immortality and the characters of Hohenheim from Fullmetal Alchemist and AZ from Pokemon Gen 6.

Had my reserved theater visit today for Infinity Castle. I'll be honest if I was still an anime only for Demon Slayer that shit would've had me screaming. Ufotable's staff did a good job. I'm not into this series that much anymore, planned this just to get out TBH, but it was fun!

Well, I said I had more to show. I wasn't lying! Here's Safume's updated character sheet with renditions of his install states, final intended form, and a new outfit. Extra information is in the alt text! Will be adding into the master thread soon too! #dboc #oc #db
Safume's base form rendition, done by KorallDIZ on Twitter.

Personality and General Info- 

Vindictive, cruel, calculating and petty to a fault. Safume possesses luxurious tastes and even loftier ambitions to match. One of my main villains for the U6 Sagas and by the time he reaches his peak? The strongest among them all.

One of the many moving cogs in the sixth universe's criminal underground and one of the primary sources of trafficking endangered species and artifacts across the cosmos, all of this is hidden with the exterior of a resort world by the name of Ajata, held in the far-off corners of the U6 Galactic Quadrants. 

Safume is a Solarian: a race of bird-like humanoids from Planet Galazio, a usually peaceful people who value knowledge, trade, and a religion tied to the stars. He hated them for their weakness and exiled himself from the planet, believing their way of life was a waste of potential that he lusted to seek after with his own hands.

His final goal is something few of his subordinates are aware of, but it is to defeat the Destroyer God Champa through whatever means he deems necessary. Zeus Plumage Safume. Same artist.

This power-up is induced through a permanent change in physiology caused by eating what are colloquially called volt candies, a confectionary from a planet bogged down by cosmic scale thunderstorms for most of the year. 

Safume's business pipeline just so happened to bring him some allies from there. The result of this install/powerup is voltage coursing through the user's body, hair or feathers becoming more jagged and shimmering gold with the raw amount of electricity on display, even being seen channeled through the fabric of his clothing. 

This state is geared towards quick-draw styled attacks, devastating strength, blistering speed, but the main flaw in it for him is that his movements appear to be straight forward and lacking somewhat in flexibility. 

A fighter who both possesses wit and enough speed to react to begin with, could possibly exploit this.  Helios Plumage Safume-

Currently the method of obtaining this state is unknown, Safume himself does not talk about it much. Helios Plumage is a fire-based state which makes his body burn brightly as the deepest most superheated depths of a volcano: direct contact becomes difficult, which compensates for the physiology of Solarians being weaker against blunt force compared to other species.

Any Ki attacks or contact with his scattered feathers can cause nerve destroying burns that are also capable of inducing paralysis into the opponent, albeit brief. 

Uoroboros Safume- 

The only true transformation among these three augmented states-- this form spawned from Safume reaching an epiphany over the course of the arc: a sickening twist of irony befalling his enemies. A battle against the Sun God, a duel with Treble who called upon the power of the world to fuel her, his people who value the stars more than strength, and finally the burning sun known as Chayot: a freak among the Saiyans whom Safume already detested from the offset.

His answer to all of them? To take Champa's throne? To blacken the stars themselves and force them to fuel his splendor, without care for synergy with the universe around him. 

The sheer power contained within this form distorts space and can hardly be contained within Safume's own body as it appears to be cracking at the seams. Uoroboros state Safume holds some control over stellar concepts and phenomenon in the form of gamma ray bursts, supernovas, plasma itself, and even gravity to some extent.

A truly fearsome opponent, and seemingly possessing only one weakness: his lack of finesse with the overwhelming might now at his fingertips.

The new semester has quite literally JUST started and my tolerance for this bullshit is already fried. Never have I seen in my 4 and a half years of higher education a professor who has their shit so badly messed up that we couldn't even access the work for TWO. WEEKS.

Next college semester has started up already, and the professor of my finance class is just. Hilariously incompetent. Can't lie. Probably the most irritating start to a college semester I've dealt with so far. But I've probably got some stuff to talk about soon, on the brighter side.

Pulled another all nighter and decided to do some trainer cards for the Sadala Trio. If anyone else is interested in doing such for their OCs, I can link the site I used for it. #oc #dboc #pokemon
The reasonings behind all of my selections. 

- Infernape is a master of various martial arts that use all of its limbs and is constantly stated to be incredibly agile. Is a monkey. And in game is a mixed attacker. Reflecting Chayot not being NECESSARILY entirely inclined to either blasts or physical attacks. He has decent options for both avenues. 

- Lycanroc Dusk is naturally hard to train, calm which contrasts with Chayot's attitude nicely, but has a fierce fighting spirit. It only evolves at sunset and Citrine is constantly compared to either sunset or sunrise (mostly the former)

- Mimikyu's entire thing is that it wants to copy Pikachu so that people don't fear, and perhaps even love it. Chayot is very similar, initially wanting to copy what he THOUGHT Goku was to be adored. 

- Chatot is kind of a joke pick tbf. Just because they sound similar. But Citrine imprinting can count as mimicking and Chatot is a parrot. It mimics human voices and shit. And I could imagine him beefing with it because it gets him into shitty situations. 

- Orange Minior. He travels through space a lot and has picked up a few treasures. I could absolutely imagine he wound up saving a Minior that lost its shell and was going to die otherwise. Also a literal shooting star Pokémon. 

- Hitmontop is another martial artist. A Capoeria user. A style entirely based on gaining momentum in combat. Dance fighting little head ass.The reasonings behind Treble's selections. 


- Torterra is known as a walking and living garden and serves as a microbiome for much smaller Pokemon. Treble being a life magic cultivator/user, being friends directly with a Kai, and caring for nature means she would absolutely _adore_ having one of these around.

- Froslass is due to the Faber arc and is a stand-in for Aura. 

- Lapras is one of the few Pokemon that can understand human speech, doesn't like fighting, and actively enjoys simply helping people. Treble early in the story had no greater purpose to herself really, she simply wanted to help the people she cared about. 

- Much like Ruta? Treble was at one point a thief. Although I don't emphasize that thuggish nature with her ANYWHERE near as much because she's already tired of that life for the most part by the time the story begins. Meowth is a little shit who loves taking shiny objects. I'm sure you get where that's going.

- Articuno is said to show up to doomed travelers lost in blizzards and has near perfect manipulation over ice. The former thing SPECIFICALLY is exactly what the Faber mini-arc was as she showed up on a frozen planet and saved its people from having to waste away in geothermal vents until they eventually died out.

- Hisuian Lilligant is another testament to the life magic thing. It lives atop snow covered mountains and its known that trainers have IMMENSE difficulty making the flower on its head bloom properly. I could see her taking care of it and challenging herself to _make_ that happenExplanations for Ruta's Pokemon team. 

- The entire Piplup line are incredibly prideful Pokemon. Prinplup specifically prefers to live alone and deems itself the most important. Which reflects Ruta's attitude early in the story very much

- Staraptor is ALSO prideful and incredibly aggressive, this bird will actively choose to fight opponents out of its depth and keep fighting despite injuries.

- Midnight Lycanroc is a similar case to Staraptor where it is extremely aggressive and to boot is DEEPLY reckless, while also possessing a maddening love for combat like Saiyans; the stronger the opponent? The more fired up it becomes.

- Gholdengho, Sabeleye, and Weavile all hint at the fact Ruta is a thief, treasure early in the story is one of her bigger obsessions and even now to an extent it's an interest. And I'd imagine a lazy and chill Gholdengho would be a nice contrast to her characterization
