HISTORY
I'd like to think that my life hasn't been bad. And it wasn't so bad up until Mt. Chimney erupted. But let me explain. My name is Faris Sans De'Artique. Now despite my long fancy name, it's just the Lineage really. In truth, my part of the De'Artique family lived in the nice, quiet area of Lavaridge town. We were the kind of people that lived out our lives working with others. My dad was assistant to the mayor of our quaint village, and his Grandfather before him helped come up with the system for the upkeep of the hot springs, which was pretty great since because of him, the springs could be bathed in a lot more privately than they once were, and with all the old wrinkly people that lived among us, I'm sure most of us younger residence were thankful for that.

I grew up around some pretty great friends. Willy, Anna, Mai, and one of my best friends, Flannery. Most of them lived around their Grandparents, so that was how there were so many kids in town to begin with. While the old people would chatter on about the weather and such, we'd be playing out on the overhang at the base of the Volcano. Though we were all taught to respect the power of nature, so we tried to be careful while we were out there.

It was on one of these trips we met a young, injured Skarmory. She was honestly one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen. Some people say you know that your going to be a type specialist when you suddenly have an affinity for one type, and you know what? They were right. Flannery, Willy and I would go up there every day to care for her, and nurse her back to health, because she was a bit too heavy for us to move, even though we were three. Eventually when she was well enough, she followed us back into town. Willy and Flannery decided that since I loved her the most, I could keep her. And so, I named her Applecake. a funny name I know, but i was still young, and at the time it sounded perfect. So Applecake the Skarmory and I became very close partners.

Eventually as we grew older, our friends began setting out on Journies, and eventually, it was just Flannery and I left in town. Though, Flannery was in training to become the next Gym leader,though still a couple of years off from doing so, so I had to find something to do in my free time. That became a journey of my own, that lasted for at least three or four years. Applecake and I traveled Hoenn, gathering as many Steel Types as we possibly could, though I never was able to best the Elite four as I had hoped. Didn't even come close. So, I returned to Lavaridge Town. By then, my best friend was already the new gym leader, and she was so excited, but at the same time nervous about her new position. I knew she would be great though, the greatest gym leader I would know. It continued on like that for a few more years, and my old man had even taken over as Mayor, after the old one passed away. Then,came the worst night of my life.

Screams of blind terror awoke Applecake and I that night. My parents were already awake, my father frantic as he tried to calm the people that had gathered just outside our house, mostly young because the old hadn't been able to move. My mother told me Mount Chimney had finally erupted. It hadn't seemed too dangerously active, or even much at all, but I suppose we underestimated nature. Maybe they thought it was safe because out house was nearest to the exit of Lavaridge town. But nowhere was safe. Without thinking too much for myself,I ran straight towards the deeper part of town. A few younger people joined me, among them Willy and Anna, and i found it was much worse deeper into the village.Globs of molten lava were falling from the sky like rain, and it was almost impossible to avoid them without ending up with tiny burns.

Flannery had already been there, trying to help the elderly out of their homes. We joined her, and more young trainers eventually did as well. We loaded as many people as we could onto various Pokemon, running, flying, any ones that we had.But the magma had reached us, and it was too late to try and save anyone else...there were still too many left...but Flannery didn't believe we had no time. I tried to urge her to leave with me, but she refused, trying to get over some Magma with her Camerupt in order to reach an old woman trapped inside of her house. I shouted for her, and suddenly felt myself lifted up by cold steel claws. I screamed, screamed for my friend as a sea of Magma swept over where I had been standing. Flannery was done for, the old woman was done for. Everyone we couldn't save, was gone. It was Applecake who had wasted no time saving my life that carried me to Mauville, which was the safe area. I looked around, finding the faces of the few people that had managed to get out alive. My father was there, but I learned that my mother had gone missing among the terrified crowds, and she had not made it. As grief stricken as I was about my mother, my eyes searched for Flannery. Maybe she had pulled one her miraculous escapes, and I hoped to see her cheeky smile one more time. But I knew better. But I knew I'd never see that smile again.

Though we had to move on. Once it was safe, we visited the remains of what had once been out home. My father ordered reconstruction, but I don't think a lot of old faces will be returning to the new Lavaridge. I was elected to be the new gym leader, for my courage, and because most people thought that was what Flannery really wanted. Though when my gym opens, it will be steel, to help ease the pains of Lavaridge's past.
OTHER

• She Travels region to region, collecting charity to help rebuild Lavaridge to come
• She often goes to Mt. Pyre, to mourn for the People and Pokemon lost in the eruption
• She often talks to herself, and some people swear they hear her refer to Flannery. But this is most likely just her asking her passed friend what she would do in her shoes. Even if she knows she won't get an answer.
