Pokepalace: Mason Kruz

God.... He is so overdue! >3< I remade this because his other forms featured a Pidgeotto. He was meant to be a pidgeot, so here he is as one!! My friend and I thought pidgeotto was the last form so that had to change. XP Kruz is registered originally as a pidgeot. So I only changed him a little bit.

He's grown quite a bit over the last two years, hitting puberty pretty late, but he's shot up like a fig.

I'll put one up of his entire outfit.

Also... I wasn't able to switch him over to becoming a ranger because he would lose everything he had gained as a courier, so I decided to keep him as a delivery boy. I wouldn't mind having him deliver me some fresh bread every now and again! Fufufufufuuuu....

NAME
Mason Kruz; I normally go by Kruz, F.Y.I. and Pandion’s my best inner conscience. Well, actually he is partner and my awesome Gramps.

POKEMON
Gijinka: Bird Type; Pidgeot

GENDER
Male

AGE
I think we’re 23, now? I was 17 years old when Pandion and I decided to become one entity. Only the Aerodactyls know how old Pandion really was. The old fart’s age sensitive so he won't tell me.

JOB
I’m now a Courier for the Oneiros. I used to fly for Pandemoria only because Pandion told me I needed to get to know more people. The only thing I like about this job is the flying.

I'm glad though I got to meet my bumpkin this way.


KINGDOM
[I was born in the Pandemoria Kingdom, but we're planning to move to Persephoneia. I don't see why. Pandemoria's fine.]

Oneiros has been the place for me now and I love it. Though I don't mind living elsewhere as long as I got to be by Faber's side.

ABILITY
Keen Eye

LEVEL
1

ATTACKS
N/A

LIKES
[I’m a meat-orientated kinda guy; the greens don’t do it for me. With my height, I need the proteins; I’m still a growing and strapping young man. I’m outdoorsy to the hilt. So, I can’t stand being cooped up in any confined area for any amount of time. The best thing for me is a good flight, be it sunny or hailing moewths and growlithes. I’m young and I like the thrill. I settle things by force most of the time; I don’t have the time for talking. When I fight, I prefer using my hands and claws rather than relying on extensions.]

I also like the dates Faber and I have. Maybe secretly I'm a girl...?

Dislikes
[I loath people who get in my face about my business. That’s my territory so they can lay off; I won’t get up in their grill as long as they don’t get in mine. I don’t like girls very much; for all I know, they still have as much cooties as they did ten years ago. Drinking’s not fun when you have to wake up in the morning; Gramps and I found out I have a low tolerance. Pandion tends to tell people I’m deathly afraid of fire and water so I usually end up telling him to shut the hell up.]

Anything that harms, scares, causes stress for my Faber is a HATE in my book. I'm taking notes. I also get jealous super easy so every woman is also fair game for my death glares.

Pandion: What he doesn't realize fer himself is zat he'z not a woman.

PERSONALITY
[In a social aspect, I’m more of a lone wolf kinda guy or would it be more appropriate to be a lone bird? Well, anyway, the only person I need is me and Pandion. Though, Pandion’s always telling me differently. So I’m rather awkward with others, trying to fit in is a hail storm in my eyes. As much as best friends we are, people tell me I’m more of a pigeotto than Pandion so we’re not incapable of arguing. But all that really matters is as long I am safe, Pandion is too. I would rather argue ten times a day than have him up and leave.

I don’t know why Pandion still exists in me but I’m glad. He’s the only family I got and I better be the only one he’s got too. But I have a feeling his consciousness sticks around cause he wants to see me grow up, get married, have kids, etc. I’m very, very fearful of the day when he won’t be around.

As for who I am, I’m a curser by nature, not to offend people or anything; it’s my way of being expressive. I grew up with it actually; Pandion’s a potty mouth but he won’t admit it. I think I’ve got a strong will and a tough hide so I can take one hell of a beating or thrashing. It’d be hard to get me to do anything if Pandion wasn’t around to tell me otherwise. I get frustrated easy when I know I can do better than what is given to me. Funny thing is I also cry easy despite my irritable nature. I’m too scared to trust anyone but Pandion, cause I know how close I am to the old man I don’t want anyone getting that close if they’re not going to stick around. I don’t have the confidence to believe in that kind of bond; I grew up without much social interaction so why would I need it now?

Let’s talk about Gramps, shall we? Pandion’s the patient one of us two. Hell, I wouldn’t have the stamina to take care of me when I’d be his age. He’s pretty held back and a little up tight but when he’s mad, he even scares me! Before he moved to the outer limits of Pandemoria, Gramps was very influential and popular and totally a lady’s man. You wouldn't believe what this bird did in his time. Out there in the tundra, boy, he did a one eighty; he won’t tell me why but I think it has something to do with the scar on the left side of his head. He’s a great father, but hell, an even kookier friend. Although he would never admit it, the old man’s a dirty perv, spying on all sorts of people and pokemon and hooking up with a plume of beauties and dames in his wild days. Ever since I turned fifteen, the stories I hear give me more goose bumps than feathers on a spearow. I don't think I can ever look at a female the same again. Damn, that old coot. I guess he won’t be having any grand children any time soon. If I told him I wasn’t interested in girls, he’d think I was gay and it’d totally make him cry. You see, he’s a bit of a crybaby too.]

Sooooo, it turns out the old coot was pretty okay with my coming out. Well... He'd have to put up with it what ever way. Hah!

Pandion: He'z very relationship illiterate... Can't even...

Kruz: Don't you dare finish that!!

HISTORY
[It was always Pandion and me from as far as I could remember. He was a geezer by the time I was what out of diapers? Gramps was half the pidgeotto he used to be, but the coot took his time and energy in caring for me. He lived on the outskirts of Pandemoria, something about the city being a bad place full of the worse sort of people? I dunno; I think he’s paranoid. Anyway, Pandion raised me on his own for a good decade: teaching me how to fend for myself outdoors, giving me this family love he keeps talking about, and being that looming father figure. I guess he had nothing better to do as a retiree for fifteen years. Everything was dandy before we lost our territory. I was turning seventeen when a wildfire broke out and took down our part of the forest. I had been out hunting cause Gramps felt sore and “ancient”. His age was really starting to show at this time.

The fire consumed everything; it was fast, but I was faster. I ran all the way back home with the heat on my heels. The old fart wasn’t there and I swear to god I just about freaked out. I tried running to the nearby sites we would visit; as wrinkly as he was getting, Pandion couldn’t have gotten far, but no matter where I looked, the old bird wasn’t there. I had spent so much time looking for him that the fire took no time in overwhelming everything around me. Just when I had just given in, a pair of three talons nabbed my arms. Through all his verbal reprimands and my tears, I felt grateful I wasn’t alone like I thought I was going to be.

Pandion took us higher and higher, but then we began to lose altitude. The smoke and heat rose to meet us. I realized: Of course, an old geezer like him wouldn’t be able to fly with a weight like me. I demanded him to drop me. He refused and pecked my face. If he was going to have it his way, we’d both go down. I struggled, if anyone deserved to live it was him. Pandion’s talons only gripped harder and his wings beat unevenly. He then made a speal about him being my guardian and if I died before him, he would be ashamed and have nothing else to live for. So it was either we both die or do something about it. We were both pretty stubborn in wanting the other to live.

In the end, we came together into one being. Like hell did we know what we were doing cause that day I learned how to fly for the first time. After a few days of Pandemoria, Gramps said it wasn't a place for a boy like me to growing up in so we headed towards Persephoneia, where a good friend of his resided. Why didn't he go there before? Hell, if I know. Maybe cause he can be young again, Gramps can do as he likes.

This friend named Aram got us a job as a courier. So we're making a living by playing delivery boy. I kinda don't like it.]

*On one of our journey to Oneiros in December, Pandion decided to stay an additional three days after we delivered our package. AND something amazing happened in these three days! I met Faber. It was love at first sight; I was sooo stoked to get the chance to kiss him on the cheek under a mistletoe. How lucky! After spending a New Years together, I decided to move to Oneiros to be with Faber and help him with his ceramic work. No matter how much Pandion scolds me for being a homo, I really don't care. I'll even take his last name; I love him so much!

ADDITIONAL INFO
The reason I don’t like water is from falling into the lake so many times as a child and having Pandion haul my ass out every single time. It’s the most embarrassing stains in my life. I have a stroke of bad luck when it comes to any form of water so being wet is totally OUT OF THE QUESTION! Heck, a glass of water can subdue me so in order to get my daily water I eat as much juicy stuff as possible. I like everything rare; Gramps doesn't.

My body has dual personalities, my own being the most dominate and Pandion being the supplement. He tends to come out when I get myself in trouble or when I can’t handle myself. When he takes over, I kinda go to sleep, but when I’m in control, I can have mental conversations with him. Maybe, he's the dominant one. I don't know; I just like the fact we can look after each other in the same body.
