Magic Tattoos
Elody has a wheel on her back which can store several magical drawings, she can freely lock them in it but instead has them constantly on her body unless they have to be hidden for reasons.

Each tattoo is very loyal to her and counting, she has 7 magical ones. She is able to summon them to a three dimensional plain and depending on the amount and size of her summoning them from her body, it can place quite a burden on her. The place where she summons them from will often feel drained after they return, any kind of precision work would be impossible and sometimes it might have other consequences too.

Elody got
-A Snake around her neck
-2 Spiders on her left inside arm
-A Dragon on her right arm
-6 Butterflies on her bottom left leg
-A Squid on her upper right leg
-A Scorpio on her lower back extending to her front
-2 small Wings on both her ankles

The best control she has, is over her snake tattoo. It is one of the first ones she got and sometimes summons it simply to talk to it. The purpose of the snake is mostly for sneak attacks, but can also be used to scare people when they get too close to her personal space. The summon itself is very weak and can easily be send back. If it is not used in battle, it can exist for 2 hours, if actively used, at most 1 hour. Because of being so used to having it around her neck, she can go a few days with feeling very vulnerable for using it in a fight.

She got the spiders mostly because they seemed cool to have, but sadly enough they do not have any combat abilities. She uses them sometimes to send notes or to threaten people with. Because they don't have any skills except movement, she can keep them invoked the longest, the two of them existing for 2 hours together and 3 hours if only one of them is summoned.

The dragon is a bit of a hassle to her, she got the design directly from her mentor and even though it is the most powerful summon she has, she can't seem to collaborate with it. The dragon refuses to fully leave her skin and often has his tail still wrapped around her lower arm. Luckily for her it can somehow breathe some kind of fire and it has a mean maw, it only wants to exist for 10 minutes at most and doesn't listen to her if it gets resummoned within a day.

The butterflies on her legs are mostly for aesthetic purposes,they have very little purpose except swarming her opponent and even that they can't do for a long time. Depending on which size and how many she summons, she won't be able to walk at all, her legs often shaking. The smallest one can exist for an hour while all together this time would be reduced to 10 minutes before she would not be able to support her own weight.

One tattoo she keeps almost always is her squid tattoo, not because she wants to surprise people with it, but because she has gotten weird comments about it and she rather avoids them. She mostly got it for swimming purposes, having a bad leg but still wanting to go for a swim, can sometimes take a bad turn for her. It can only be used in water and it can't attack, because of these conditions, she is not used to summoning it often, resulting in only being able to have it out for 12 minutes.

She is quite proud of her scorpio tattoo, it is the biggest one she got if you simply counted surface area. It can fight even if it is not fully summoned by swinging its tail around. For Elody that is the safest way of fighting with it, because the strain that it puts on her spine is tremendous when fully summoned. She can have it partially summoned for 15 minutes and she doesn't dare to test the current limits when summoning it fully.

The wings can only be used for anything ranking from an upwards jump or one in any other direction. This one cannot be used in succession and she hasn't figured out yet how to get a good landing. It can be used again if she takes the time to collect her thoughts, the quickest she was ever able to do it again was in 30 minutes, but she was left with a nasty headache for the rest of the day.


Summoning them all at once will lead to unconsciousness in +/- 2 minutes, Elody won't be able to use any of her summons for a few days after that and would be stuck in bed.

Ability:  Inner Focus Protects the Pokémon from flinching.

Hometown: Willowdale

Personality: 
||Brave||
Elody is not someone who is easily afraid of things, she would rather face it and punch it in the face. This does mean that she can easily be challenged to do dumb stuff

||Stubborn||
She can be quite headstrong with everything that concerns herself, she does not take kindly to the input of others however well meant they were. This often results in her being called stuck up and several other names, she just does not care about other peoples opinions

||Irritable||
For some reason, it is hard to be liked by Elody due to the soul reason that she can easily take things the wrong way, she wishes she could be somewhere on her own without people everywhere

||Rude||
She does not care, at all, so why should she be nice, it would only be a hassle for herself

||Lazy||
Elody is a quitter, she rather not does a thing than do it if is tiring and not necessary. After years of discipline, she gave up on being productive and often tries to find the easy way out of things

History:
Elody is the youngest in a family of 4, she has a Floatzel father, Artemiy Matrianna, a Weavile mother, Irina Isidor and an older Buizel brother by the name of Klim. Both of her parents met in the army, and while her mother is still a swordswoman, her dad quit the army after he got injured so badly that he paralyzed his spine. Her father seemed very sober about this, but it was clear to see that he missed the battlefield and felt helpless, this often resulted in both her parents yelling at each  other in the middle of the night. Discussing the most pointless things from where the cheese went to, to even why his wife was still leaving every once in a while. Her brother and her were often the once who had to take care of their dad, sometimes neighbours would pop in and help with the harder work, but in the end, it were the two kids who had to watch after their dad at the times their mom was absent. Luckily, their mother stopped leaving for long missions and tried to keep a balance between family and work, which was very hard.

Her parents wanted only one thing, that both of their children would become succesful swordmasters, it had worked out well for them, it was an honorable job in their eyes. This meant that Elody's childhood was mostly constant practice, constant teachings, constant being told to go to the edge of her limits, that she had to make something of her life. But though she could have sworn that she was at least as well as her two year older brother, she could hear her father sometimes arguing with her mom about why their second child wasn't a boy as well. She couldn't help she was born a girl, she kept trying to improve, wasn't that enough for them? Elody felt worthless, she wished she had never known.

This kind of hard life style continued for several years until a certain day when Elody was 11, she had finally enough of the constant practice and decided to finally have a day of peace for herself and so she ventured into the Woods near their home. She had been there a few times with her family and so saw no harm in her small adventure. Sadly enough, this resulted in a very bad thing, while scavenging for berries, she had stumbled upon two Shinx pups and to say the least, their parents weren't happy at all. And that was how a tiny Elody became stuck in a tree while angry Luxrays were still trying to bite her.

Elody tried to fight back several times with a stick but it only resulted in her pissing them off more and eventually she even gotten bitten in her leg. Luckily the scream she sounded then was enough to have her mother finally find her. The girl was traumatised and couldn't walk straight for weeks, when her parents finally started her sword training again, they realised that the bite had done severe damage to some nerves and she would never be a proper swordmaster. Elody was crushed, maybe she didn't want to become a knight or a guard or whatever, but whatever eye her parents still had for her, was completely gone.

It was almost like her parents stopped caring for her and she would often just go out of the house, walk through her hometown. When she came back from one of her walks when she was 13, she saw her mother converse with a Scrafty covered in tattoos. She simply ignored whatever was going on, if they didn't care about her, she wasn't going to care about them. Eventually the Scrafty just sat in front of her on eye level, clearly amused by the enraged child. The mon introduced herself as Rosalynn and her new mentor, her mother had searched for a new life for her daughter and had eventually messaged an old friend of hers. Without even more explanation, her mother had packed a bag with clothes and send Elody off, the small child refused to cry about it, she knew she was unwanted. Her mother showed no signs of regret and all her father did, was yell at her brother to get him back out in the courtyard so he could asses Klim's

Rosalynn took Elody all the way to Murfovaara, and eventually started teaching her her trade, magic invocations. Elody liked Rosalynn, and slowly but surely, she realised that at least her mother still cared about her, she really had thought of her future and knew that Elody would just continue being miserable at home... For the first time in years, she finally cried again. When Elody turned 19, she thought she had learned enough and left Rosalynn, her teacher was sad to see her go, but ce la vie, she said. After travelling for a long time, she decided to join a guild, maybe some people would think she was useful and having a roof above her head was a plus.

Moveset:  
Double Hit her father taught her to, when left barehanded against an opponent, two quick strikes around the midriff would do significant damage 
Metal Claws she attacks with both her claws in an attempt to pierce skin, depending on how good the hit turns out, she might get more interested in hurting more
Calm Mind by keeping her cool, Elody tries to logically asses the situation and therefore boosting her strength and defense
Punishment the longer she is in battle and the more she seems to try to orden her thoughts, the more she just wants to punch someone
