Physical DescriptionBackground
39
Rist is rather tall and imposing, standing at 6'1 and weighing in at 160 pounds. While his build is lean, he is obviously rather muscular. He has somewhat long, messy, sandy blonde hair and golden-hazel eyes. His normal clothes look rather out of place in normal, modern society, but he doesn't seem to mind. He always wears loose fitting travel clothes typical to what would be seen on a desert native in rather neutral light brown colors paired with dark brown traveling boots. The only thing to stand out on his ensemble is a faded red scarf that he wears at all times, adding some color to his rather dull, if strange, attire.Born to two wilderness survival specialists, Rist has always had a connection with nature. While his parents owned a house in Verdunturf they only lived there around half of the year. The other half was spent taking rich folks on exotic expeditions. For the first few years of his life, when his parents went off to play, he was forced to stay with one of their neighbors. Over the years, he formed a fast friendship with their daughter that lasted into his teenage years. Despite this, as soon as he was able to join his parents on their expeditions he was with them, tagging along and following in their footsteps. While he picked up after them rather quickly, his own love of the wilderness soon took him in a slightly different direction then random globe trotting all over the world.

When he was 11, he set off on his first solo expedition after a year of preparation. His parent dropped him off in the desert on route 111 with his modest supplies and then he was on his own for an entire month. This was expected to be a tough survival challenge, something that his parents were incredibly nervous about, but Rist had insisted, and for good reason. Instead of having to duck out early or have a tough time, as expected, Rist thrived in the desert. When he returned from his expedition he had instense sketches of the landscape of the desert and had even managed to befriend a rare wild pokemon, a Hippopotas that he had nicknamed Parah.

After that, he spent all the free time that he could planning and executing trips into the desert, with his faithful companion at his side. Eventually, things progressed with his childhood friend back home and they entered a relationship. When he was 16, he, his parents, and his girlfriend all went on a week long trip into the desert in celebration of his birthday. While they were on that expedition, they stumbled across some mysterious ruins that he had never seen before. While he was somewhat nervous about them, his girlfriend was curious about them and so she dragged him along with her, and they explored the ruins. As they were exploring, his girlfriend tried to climb an old crumbled wall that was unstable and it fell over onto both of them. When he woke up in the hospital injured, battered, and broken, he was delivered devastating news. While his girlfriend hadn't died immediately, she showed no signs of brain activity and was only being kept alive until her parents were ready to pull the plug.

It took him 6 months of physical therapy until he could move back home to Verdanturf, and even then he was far from fully healed. Not having come to terms with the entire situation he aimlessly wandered the house, rarely going outside and spending hours on end doing nothing but wasting time. Parah was with him through it all and eventually she was what helped him through it, encouraging him and comforting him. After 6 months of doing nothing, he had finally had enough of it and began working out and training himself once again. It was during this time period that he decided to become a trainer and he began throwing himself at this wholeheartedly, obsessing over battling. When the time finally came for the Verdantuf tournament he was more than ready, Parah and himself pushing through the competition with his harsh, focused glare and his connection with her. While it was a tough struggle, only having been battling for less than a year, eventually the barely managed to power through and beat the tournament.

PersonalityGoals / Dreams / Obsessions
41
In the past, Rist was an outgoing, rambunctious, curious, and socialable child. Growing up in the wild, spending time with large groups of people, he quickly learned to be social and always had outlets to explore his more curious side, traveling somewhere new every few months as a new trip began. As he grew older, he became quiet and reserved, but no less friendly, always able and eager to strike up a conversation with anyone he met.

After his overly dramatic backstory event, Rist's personality has made a sudden shift. He often avoids people and goes out of his way to say as little as possible, sneaking around the fringes and trying to be as unnoticeable as possible. While his love for the wilderness is still there, it has been dampened considerably, no longer providing him the comfort and solace he once used to get. As such, he's lost his way to relax and to let out tension, which makes him prone to sudden outbursts when his emotions grow too strong. He has an incredible drive to succeed in pokemon battles, not having much purpose besides them, and this intensity has spread to other areas of his life. It is incredibly rare for him to have a smile on his face, his expression either vacant, feircely intense, or a dark scowl. As for whether he stays this way or if he reverts back to his old personality? Well, only time will tell.
At the moment, Rist is somewhat lost and lacking a purpose in life, and has such has somewhat unhealthily latched onto pokemon battles as a coping mechanism. As such, most of his life is oriented towards that, but these are very likely to change as he changes.

Goal: Strength. To be as strong as possible, and to overcome any obstacle.

Dream: Truthfully, he doesn't have any dreams at the moment. He doesn't want fame, he doesn't want fortune, he doesn't even particularly want to beat the Elite Four. At the moment, he's hollow, with no purpose.

Obsession: Strength. Victory. Winning. Proving himself against worthy opponents. Everything he wants currently borders much more towards an obsession than a true, healthy goal.
