HISTORY Years ago, while Ulysses was partaking in the gym challenge, Team Flare's fired weapon claimed the lives of his parents in during their honeymoon Geosenge Town. However, they weren't just his parents. Ruth, his sister, took the news the hardest. She was plagued by nightmares for weeks on end, and when she wasn't grieving, she was distant, no longer the fun and energetic sister he grew up with. No matter what Ulysses tried or did, he couldn't reverse the trauma that changed their lives forever... Until he began exploring the possibilities of hypnosis and hypnotherapy. With varying levels of success, Ulysses trained and worked with Pokemon that could eat dreams, and with time, Ruth's nightmares became less frequent. Despite this, Ruth was always reminded of her parents one way or another whenever she was awake, unable to quite move on. She wasn't the Pokemon trainer of the family. Her parents were all she had when Ulysses was on the road. He then decided to take things up a notch. Taking advantage of Ruth's dependent nature and high hypnotic susceptibility, he began making suggestions during their sessions. At first they were simple: With certain cues, Ruth would carry out commands without knowing she was ever given them. Over time though, Ulysses began changing around the details of what Ruth did and didn't know. Did her father teach her how to pick the best berries? No, it was her brother. Where was her mother? On a long honeymoon with father. Where were they? Too many questions opened up too many holes, so Ulysses conditioned Ruth into staying at the family orchard as much as possible, and he was quick to “reset” her memories if worse came to worst. He was on the right track on becoming a fine trainer. He had his own life to live. He lost it all... And yet... He couldn't bring himself to blame Ruth. If anything, “healing” and “protecting” Ruth helped him overcome his own grief. It was almost... Therapeutic taking away all the pain they've endured, and replacing it with whatever he pleased. He became utterly fascinated in what hypnosis could accomplish when in the right hands, and what Ghost and Psychic type Pokemon were capable of. If he continued his quest to simply become a great Pokemon trainer, he never would've learned how to appreciate the psychics and other telepathically capable trainers wandering the world, who've mastered so much more than he could ever dream of. Perhaps he was on to something. He can't reverse history, but perhaps he could help others forget about it. Initially, he believed the Knights of Arceus were no different from Team Flare: Power hungry thugs who're making more widows and orphans in the world. But they were winning, and if their goal was to be believed, the ends justified the means. Ulysses offered damage control, and his resourcefulness as a researcher. He would do anything to secure a safer world for he and Ruth, even if it meant researching ways to eventually alter the world's memory of the bloodshed that got them there. He has last been seen in Unova in search of Beheeyem to study, due to their claimed ability to manipulate memories. There have been claims that psychics, mediums, channelers, hex maniacs, and trainers with telepathic abilities in general go missing around him. | ||||||||
OTHER Height: 5'8" Eyes: Purple Hair: Brown Younger Sister: Ruth Iegriyega Wears glasses; He's farsighted, so things up close are especially blurry without his glasses. He does get headaches from eyestrain after working too long. "Iggy" nickname comes from occasions where people have difficulty pronouncing his surname. He doesn't like this nickname. Has a tendency to have his Pokemon attack trainers during battles instead of their Pokemon. Also tends to retreat, as getting caught would do little good for the Knights' cause. Is very aware that compared to most other researchers, who've been raised to study Pokemon from cradle to grave, he is a relative newbie to the field of science; Insists his fresh perspective offers him a distinct advantage over the others. Suffers from insomnia; Repeated exposure to his Pokemon's hypnotic abilities has resulted in him developing a resistance of sorts, though this isn't to say he's completely immune to all forms of hypnosis. Rumors about him dissecting telepathic trainers have yet to be confirmed, as they've been started by grunts. He neither confirms or denies these rumors, if only because he likes the reputation the rumors have given him. He gave Ruth a Pikachu, a Hawlucha, a Noivern, a Luvdisc, and a Ditto, all of which he caught before pursuing his research in hypnotism and memory manipulation. The Litwick is the offspring of his Chandelure. | ||||||||
