Name: Nicholas (though he goes by Nick)
Age: 17 (just a few months from 18)
Gender: Male
Appearance: Cept his hair is more of a brownish color
Desired gym leader number: 6
Desired location: Tundra
History: Nick grew up in Kanto and had abusive parents at a young age. He was quiet and withdrawn during this time, sticking mostly to his room. But he constantly sneaked out of the house to look at the stars or just to get away from the fights. One day, when he was six, he saw a curious tent around his normal haunt. It turned out to be the circus. He managed to sneak in with the crowd and watch. During the show, he was amazed and fell in love with the acrobats and Handlers. When he went to leave, the staff found out he had sneaked in and made him help clean up to pay for the ticket he should have bought.
While cleaning out one of the Arcanine's cages, it shot fire at him and he somehow managed to flip out of the way. The circus owner saw this and decided to take him with them. He checked with Nick's parents, but they could care less what happened to him. In the intervening years, he's risen from a lowly cleanup boy to one of the circus' top acrobatic stars. He's an extremely skilled Handler as well.
One day, the circus came to the island and Ivra watched. She was highly impressed with his abilities and asked him if he wanted a gym leader position. He had just turned seventeen at the time and told him he would have to wait a while until he could take the full leader position. He agreed, completely loving the idea as long as he could battle how he wanted. She agreed since his battle style wasn't uncommon in Sedora.
Personality: Nick is generally a laid back, go with the flow kind of person. He loves to hang out with anyone and everyone he can, especially girls. He can come off as extremely charming at times, but prefers to not act this way. He can be highly immature at times, but generally isn't. He's very easy to get along with unless you get on his bad side. He has an extremely fiery temper when it comes out, though he's usually level-headed.
In battle, his personality completely changes. He's still somewhat aloof and enjoys himself, but underlying this is a master strategist. He can easily out think many opponents and startle them because of his involved battle style. He always tells people not to be afraid of striking him, but they often are.

Roleplay example:
Nick stretched out in his gym, staring at the ceiling. "Man, this is boring beyond all reason," he said. "Like, nobody comes around here..." He sat up when there was a knock on the door. "Come in." A girl of sixteen walked in, shivering.
"I c-challenge you to a b-battle!" She pointed at him and he smiled.
"WEll well. Looks like I got me my first challenger. But would you like a cup of hot chocolate or something to warm up first?"
She shook her head. "N-No! Let's just b-battle!"
"Kay." He stood up and pulled his coat on, walking outside. He pulled ice skates on and the girl loked at him, dumbfounded. "I'm a Handler. I like to be involved with my battles."
