APPEARANCE
Hemlock is rather average in and of her own appearance. Her full height brings her to about 5'5", a decent height for someone of her fragile stature. Like a late blooming flower in the winter snow, she stands ready to wilt with shaky knees and a sickly appearance. Dark spots line under her eyes to show how little sleep she gets, and she's as pale as they come. Dark hair is cropped short on the brunette in a messy fashion, an obvious sign that she up keeps her own hair.
Unbeknownst to herself, she's fairly attractive. She has a pretty cute face and legs to die for. These are usually shown off in her short dresses; she particularly favors a yellow one she's had for a while. Simplicity is often her best friend when it comes to these. As an odd choice in fashion, she generally wears restraints on her wrists and neck, and occasionally her legs - often there is a chain between her wrists, long enough to allow her to function without tripping over herself.
She's usually completed by a thick book in hand - usually one with a decrepit looking cover and screaming of the occult. [/ul]
PERSONALITY
There's a certain degree of insanity within Hemlock Walters. She has some normal, redeeming qualities, of course. She's a sweetheart, and really enjoys caring for her Pokemon. She's pretty knowledgeable, especially if it has to do with anything beyond the grave, and it always eager to share what she knows. She also has a weakness for sweets, particularly suckers and lollipops, and will melt for one.
That said, she has social anxiety disorder, and locks up in most situations involving human contact. She has trouble conveying herself like this, and her inability to express herself properly leads to her feeling like people misunderstand her. She realizes that most of the time, people simply see her as shy or creepy, and this further exasperates the problem.
She has a bit of a darker element to her as well. Her steadily increasing frustration with both her own life and her inability to achieve what she wants has led to her having a bit of a violent temper; she dips into the darker resources of her mind and adds on a hoarse tone. This can also be seen as a bit of a defense against her own social inadequacies from her point of view, as when she gets upset she seems to find it easier to avoid her stutter and such.
Hemlock is also quite the masochist, and talking about people getting hurt [particularly herself] and detailed knowledge of such events seems to give her pleasure.
Ambitions:
- Actually finish a Contest without anything going horribly wrong
- Surround herself with Ghost, Psychic, and Dark type Pokemon
Find true loveFurther her occult studies.

HISTORY
Lilycove City is where the story of a poisonous girl begins. Her mother worked as an attendant on Mt Pyre, which helped expose the young Hemlock to the world she would grow to love; the world of the dearly departed. The little tyke fell head over heels in love with the graveyard world around her, almost feasting on the energy surrounding herself.
As she grew, this only manifested into a desire to learn more, which her mother encouraged; after all, if her child was interested in a subject, she should pursue it, right? This kept her recluse of a daughter happy and busy with life, although it caused her to develop inwards; why bother playing with other children when she could play with her Duskull and voodoo dolls instead? She invested herself deep within her school work in order to please her mother, who would in turn reward her by helping her purchase occult books and equipment she felt she needed.
Hemlock, being a resident of Lilycove, was no stranger to the concept of Pokemon Contests. After a bit of difficulty in getting any of her peers in town to so much as acknowledge her, she decided that becoming a contestant would help her gain something she so desperately struggles for: human contact outside of her home. However, her first Contest ended... well, in disaster. The girl on the receiving end of the fire attack did actually recover, but now Hemlock is stuck doing Contests so she can raise money to help pay off the lawsuit. It doesn't mean she can't enjoy herself, of course...
