Likes: Berries and fruit, history, geography, exploring, dancing, books, adventures, unusual foods, pockets , boyish clothing.

Dislikes: Talking about herself, being interrupted while "studying", trying to be "creative", wanting something when she knows she can't have it, normal/plain food, really tight and hard to move in clothing.

Personality: Lucy is very curious and loves the learn about the world around her. Despite her hobbies often involving being alone, she is not really a loner and doesn't mind being with people but she's not that talkative, she would much rather listen to what the other person has to say. Because she's spent her life learning about others, she knows very little about herself (I mean about personal stuff) and has issue coming up with creative pieces as well as has a hard time with conversation is about themselves as a person.

She is described best as cheerful and not overly but somewhat energetic. The fact she's never really been in a serious hardship has made her somewhat naive and bit too trusting of others when they make a claim on something like a social event rather than a knowledge based one. She's not very observant and often misses subtle messages but her power of observation show much better outdoors since that's what she's used to.. She will be very passive in arguments with only presenting facts and statistics but not opinions or feelings.

If someone is angry with her she's quickly becomes very timid and her voice becomes high pitched. She can be very childish as well as she loves to collect things and if she takes it, she will not hand it over unless you can prove that you had the object first. When it comes to collecting things she had learnt her lesson in the past about "stealing" and what not to take.

She highly dislikes being disturbed whilst she's studying and will become stubborn if you try to drag her away from it. When she's fixed on something, it takes a lot to keep her away until she's finished with it. This focus was the only thing that kept her eyes on the white board when the teacher's talking and not on the display on the wall (but she will go to the display after the class has finished).

History: Lucy was raised in a trading town with a large market place. She would always love looking at the different products available. Her father was a travelling merchant who brought things back home to sell which meant she never saw him much. When she wasn't looking at that random stone on the floor, she was reading. She loved reading adventure novels and learning about the world around her.

When she was seven, a famous dance group on tour visited her town and gave a performance. It was really something that stuck in Lucy's head. In her spare time when she wasn't reading or exploring, she would try to imitate those dancers that she saw.

On her 15th birthday her parents gave her the opportunity to study dancing aboard. Lucy was more than delighted and took her chance to go on her own adventure.

Additional info:

-Lucy is right handed
-She always has an encyclopaedia with her.
-Lucy has a younger brother who is 2 years younger than her. They mostly get along but they argue when it comes to ownership of a new object they've found.
-Lucy has been accused of being a kleptomaniac as a child but a talk about what not to take has covered that and turns out it's just innocence.
-When it comes to her own observations, she will only say that x happens if you do y but will not come up with a reason why. (P.S. The first part >_> Oh the possibilities.)
-She is short sighted after reading too much in poor lighting. She also dislikes wearing contacts (she has tried them before and claims it made her feel uncomfortable).
-She generally dislikes anything getting too close to her eyes and will often have her glasses near the end of her nose.
-She has a very good sense of smell.

Artist's comments

I had a hard time coming up Lucy's personality. I wasn't sure about it, especially with questions like "should she be logical or not?" The answer seems obvious considering she's knowledgeable but it is possible to be smart but not all that intelligent. Continuing from that point there are people who seem dumb but in reality they have very deep but narrow knowledge.

With her electives I had some issues too as I had a hard time picturing Lucy in those classes.

I also forgot to draw her tail >3> Well I rushed this picture so meh. She does have one though.

I think I have a female Zigzagoon called Lucy.

Her original Pokémon ideas were (in no order): Mareep, Skitty, ralts, Lapras, Dratini, Misdreavus and Poochyena.

Her original name was going to be Isis.
