Current Funds: 3 Star Coin of 9 in total recieved

Merits: 1

-------------------------------------

Zeta
Species: Zoroark
Nature: Calm
-Characteristic: Often lost in thought
Gender: Male                     Age: Yound Adult (26 Human Years)
Ability: Illusion

Strength: 2                   Agility: 3
Intelligence: 2 [+2]               Charisma: 3

Total Points Left: 10/10
Type Bonus: [+2] Dark -> Intelligence

Moveset:
Extrasensory - Zeta will release pulsating psychic energy towards the opponents mind caising their perception of time to stop until their vision shatters like looking throw glass and collapse from the sudden exhaustion. This move can be used to read minds ike a Psychic-type but with the added side effect of inflicting mental damage.

Hidden Power (Psychic) - A move used by Zeta, most often, to levitate light objects near him for a short time. If needed, he can use this to make heavy objects lighter to allow him to carry it with his own strength, though it strains both mind and body. A risk he doesn't take very often

Calm Mind - A mind-clearing meditation that helps Zeta concentrate during situations.

Agility - Zeta moves at a blinding speed too fast to follow.

Luke
Species: Absol
Nature: Bold
-Characteristic: Impetuous and silly
Gender: Male                     Age: Young Adult (19 Human Years)
Ability: Super Luck

Strength: 4                   Agility: 2
Intelligence: 0 [+2]               Charisma: 4

Total Points Left: 10/10
Type Bonus: [+2] Dark -> Intelligence

Moveset:
Psycho Cut - Luke's scythe will glow a deep purple and his eyes will glow a similar color as he soon gets ready to swing. The attack penetrates any armor or defense that would otherwise leave most attacks ineffective.

Blizzard - Luke's eyes will glow a cool white color that gives it the impression of a cloud. A gust of cold wind will soon blow behind Luke towards where he targets it.

Thunder - Luke's scythe will spark from collecting static. He will raise his scythe after enough collection of static and a lightning bolt will shoot towards the sky where it will be directed towards his target from above. The collecting phase usually takes long and his impatience will lead to a blunt strike.

Double Team - Luke has trained well enough with Zeta that he can now cast his own illusion and copies himself to confuse his opponent.


Inventory:

* Body Paint - This item allows members to add an additional color of their choosing to one of their Pokemon in the form of markings. It cannot be used to color the entirety of the Pokemon another color, and designs should refrain from covering 50% or more of the Pokemon's body.

* Hand-Made Kunai (June Task Reward) - An Iapon-style farming tool turned throwing dagger. Sturdy, but crafted from shoddy materials. It has a certain charm to it though, as if it was made with much love. Allows the use of the moves Fling and Recycle.

* Armband  (Luke's Starter Accessory) -  A golden armband that is strapped on both his left forelimb.

* Cloak (-3 Star Coins; Zeta) - A long black cloak. Zeta wears it where ever he goes.

* Satchel (-3 Star Coins; Zeta) - A black satchel bag Zeta carries around to place important items and documents.

* Full Customization voucher (Mission 1 Reward / Quantity: 2) - Allows a single free use of Chantelle's Accessory customizations

* Starter Accessory Voucher (Zeta) - Allows a free claim of your respective guild accessory.

* "Cultures of Parai" Document Book (Intermission; Zeta; Personal Item) - A book on various cultures throughout Parai.

* Dark Blue Binder Notebook (Zeta; Personal Item) - A notebook containing information and theories about the mysterious fog plaguing Parai. Zeta was holding on to this when he first arrived to Andalusst. Zeta can't remember where he got it.

* Spelon Bombs x3 (Cactus Field Tasks)

* Petroglyph shard x1(Cactus Field Tasks)


========== WRITTEN TEST ==========
Zeta was done and finished submitting his registration form and it's time for him to go back. As he round the corner he was stopped by a crowd of other guild members that seemed to have stopped on their tracks. Clearly at a distance, Zeta can see a Flygon bulldozing through the crowd as she heads towards him.

"Ohhh... Excuse me, pardon me, Leader's Assistant comin' through... C'mon guys, can’t you have your little meeting thing somewhere that isn't blocking a hallway? 'scuse me, sorry, jeez..."

After that struggle, the Flygon is clear from the crowd and is now heading her way towards where she needs. A large pile of paper scrolls fill her arms and a tube full of blueprints strapped towards her back connected by a metal clasp. Her arms are decorated with armbands - one on each arm, black on the left and silver on the right.

Zeta only had a small time interval to find this out, but as an unfortunate misstep sent the Flygon down on her chest, the papers were sent to fly everywhere as a laughter and gossip filled the hall. Zeta stepped in to aid the Flygon

"Oooof, so many papers... There we go," the Flygon mutters, balancing everything back into a manageable pile before straightening and breaking out into a cheery smile. "Thanks so much for helping me pick all these up. I swear, that’s like the fifth time I’ve tripped today; I’m such a klutz…" She blinks. "Heeeey, wait a minute. You don't look familiar. Are you visiting the Guild?"

"No, I'm new here, I just registered awhile back." Zeta enlightened her.

"Well no wonder I don’t remember you, you're new!" She inclines her long neck in the best bow she can manage without dropping everything all over again. "Welcome to the Researchers Guild! I'm Kali, I'm one of the Guild Leaders' assistants here. Pleased to meet you! And you are…?"

"Zeta." the Zoroark muttered out as he rolled his eyes to the side, feeling a bit impatient.

She smiles again. "Nice name! I'm Kali. You know, I don't hear many names like yours around here, but then again Andalusst is kind of a mish-mash of a whole bunch of different kinds of names. It's always nice to hear 'em since Pokémon do tend to come in from all over the place, after all. And speaking of which, did you get here from the fog or something?"

Zeta looked surprised to find she has hit the bulls-eye. "Y-Yes. How did you-"

"Know? That's how it is for a few people around here. I'm not an Andalusst native myself, but I figured I'd stick around. Anyway, now that you're here and you've been registered as a team, what name did you pick?"

She waits for the response with an expectant look, Zeta muttered out, "Allure"

"Hah, that's so much better than the name I used when I signed up, wow. I was kind of, uh, young and silly back then, I guess you could say, so the name I used was... yeeeeaaaaah, pretty bad."

"So what's your reason for joining the Guild, anyway? There are three guilds here in Andalusst, and even if I like it here with the Researchers, I know it's not the best fit for everyone since we're kinda knowledge-oriented; you could've just as easily registered with the Hunters, or the Explorers. So why here?"

Zeta looked at the back of his mind for a clear answer. He didn't know why maybe it was just, "I used to be a researcher before. I went here other uh...'colleagues' before arriving in Andalusst."

"Wow, that's quite a tale! Not many Pokémon come through here with a story like that. Seems like everyone in the Guilds has a driving force behind what they do, and some reasons are... well, better than others."

She pauses, before her voice regains its chipper tone. "So that’s the "why" and the "how"; what about the "what"? What do you think made the Guild decide to accept you into the ranks?" She says this with honest curiosity, not a trace of taunt or teasing in her tone, and listens as your team lists off their skills.

"I do have a lot of knowledge under my belt. I think it's more than enough to get in their ranks." Zeta said with a trace of smug.

"Oh wow, that's pretty cool! You guys are lucky. Y'know sometimes I wish I had a better skill set like that; then maybe I’d be more help to the Guild. Pretty much the only things I do around here are draw and deliver papers everywhere and, well, get stuck helping Archie."

Knowing her tone, Zeta could guess she wasn't particularly fond of this "Archie". He asked why.

"I mean yeah sure he's one of the Guild Leaders, but he's just so... so... annoying, always bossing people around and taking credit for everything and acting like he's so much smarter than everyone else. And I'm always the one having to put up with him since someone has to help him but everyone else always runs off before they get stuck with him instead!"

She lets out a great huff of frustration, glancing away for a moment before remembering she has an audience. Giving an embarrassed chuckle as her face slowly reddens, she says, "And oh gosh, there I go running my mouth, ahaha! Sorry, I'm not talking too much or anything, am I? I kind of have a tendency to ramble on sometimes... And I probably really shouldn’t be bad-mouthing Archimedes...”

With a sudden, panicked expression abruptly crossing her face as she remembers the mass of paper in her arms, she blurts, "And OH MY GOSH I still need to take care of these!"

She starts running down the hall, then abruptly pulls an about-face - accidentally whacking a passerby with her tail while doing so - to stammer, "Uh, it was nice meeting you! I'll, er, see you later, I hope?" She attempts to raise an arm to wave back, but stops when the paper pile in her arms wobbles precariously, and instead flashes a quick grin before stomping briskly away.

Zeta waved back with an awkward smile as the he went on his way.
"Wow, people here are very outgoing. It's been a long time since I met people like that."
It took me two days to notice the final guild app is out. >:I 

*New* For up to date info and log, Team Allure is in Andalusst Atlas: pmdunity.org/team/view/670/tea…
*UPDATE* Deviantart is being a d**k so I can't link tumblr on the description. Zeta's visual references are in the comments below :\
Member Info:

Zeta:
Fullname: Zenith Nightshard
Species: Zoroark
Age: Adult
Gender: Male

Ability(s):

Illusion - Zeta can cast very convincing illusions, though only sparingly. His illusions require mental clarity or else they go out of control, changing landscapes that even he is fooled by.

Appearance:
Zeta is rather short for a Zoroark, a few inches shorter than most. He also has less fur than other Zoroaks but still droop down as long. Unlike most Zoroark, he stands very upright as opposed to usual hunched-back posture. His irises are silver but they also has this yellow "ring" around his irises that is reminiscent of a Watchog.

Behavior
Zeta is quiet, calm and collective who keeps his words to himself. He is an introvert but, contrary to popular belief, is sociable and won't mind the interaction with other Pokemon.


---


Luke:
Fullname: Lucas Storm
Species: Absol
Age: Adult
Gender: Male

Ability(s):

Super Luck - Super Luck helps get Luke out of very sticky situations. This prompts him to become very reckless when it comes to fighting, however his behavior is not influenced by his knowledge of this ability. In fact, he doesn't even know.

Appearance:
Luke is an Absol with a golden armband strapped to his left forelimb

Behavior: 
Luke is very obnoxious and rash. He cares deeply about his allies and tries to work his hardest around them. He has a tendency to pick fights as a sort of "test" for him.
