Favorite Food: Chicken, chocolate, coffee
Favorite Possession: A picture her son Peter drew for her
Hobbies: Training/exercising, taking her students on field trips, talking with friends
Dreams: To be a good mother no matter the cost
Personality: Erika comes off as a wild/in-your-face kind of person. She doesn’t take crap from people and will laugh so she doesn’t cry. She enjoys being the center of attention and if she doesn’t like someone, she’ll never like them. She’s extremely stubborn but knows when to back down. Tries to lighten the mood no matter what the occasion is, so tends to be the kind of person that’s fun to be around.
Friends:Whoever makes a good first impression
Family: A mother and a father, two sisters, one older (Susanna) and the other younger (Mary), and a 5 yr. old son named Peter
History: The Humphreys were a well-off family, not rich, but not poor either. Erika and her two sisters were raised very traditionally, Susanna and Mary dealing with it fine, but Erika rebelled from the start. She hated the stuffy dresses, the tea parties, the embroidery lessons, everything their parents put them through to make them proper ladies. Erika would go out and tussle with all the boys of the neighborhood, usually causing Susanna and Mary to g out and find her before their parents did.
In time, her mother and father gave up trying to force her to be what she wasn’t. The tension in the family lessened, and everything seemed to be going well.
Then one day, Erika revealed to her family that she was pregnant. She had become involved with an older man and once they found out she was pregnant he left her. Having no one else to turn to, she went to her family, but her parent’s traditional views caused a greater chasm to open between them. They turned their backs on her, and Susanna was the only one who gave her the support she needed.
Once the baby was born (Peter), Erika moved into a house by herself and the baby. She was a good mother at first, but the restrictions that came with it started to weigh down on her. She was becoming less and less involved with Peter and took to leaving the house at irregular times. Susanna, who had continued to check in on Erika, confronted her about it, and the one good relationship she had with her family became tense. Erika left her son, just as his father left her, and Susanna took him in.
A few years passed with no word from Erika, then she suddenly turned up on Susanna’s doorstep. She saw Peter who was now 3 and fell madly in love with him. Once her parents found out that she was back again, they forbade her to see her son because of how she failed at taking care of him. She was ready to explode and attack back at them, but the thought of her son gave her restraint. She decided to get her act together and show her parents that she can take care of her son and will.
The best way to do that, she decided, was becoming a teacher.
Past Years at Poke-Magic Academy: At first she was extremely nervous, but hid it well. Soon she became used to the idea of being a teacher and excelled at it, enjoying her time with the students, but never admitting to it. Peter visits her every weekend.
Pokémon: Dragonite
Type: Dragon/Flying
Level: 47
Ability: Inner Focus - Erika calms her mind as difficult as that is for her and is harder to startle
Moves:
Dragon Rush - She calls forth her inner dragon magic and slams into her target, the magic strengthening her
Agility - She speeds herself up annnd… yeah. >.>
Twister - She calls forth a violent twister to confuse and harm her opponent
Dragon Rage - Her only ranged attack, she sends a circle of dragon fire at her foe with a fixed damage
Preferred RP Method(s): Comments mostly, but I’m always waiting to RP so notes are completely fine too. I can’t always go on DA chats (depends on what computers I’m on) but I use this site [link] and it’s pretty good.
So just let me know whenever you want to RP, drop a comment or anything!

Erika: *she leans back, always liking to talk about her son* Well... unfortunately he's got a lot of me in him, but my sister, the one taking care of him while I'm gone, has been able to tamper that a bit. *she smiled fondly, not annoyed which she had first felt towards her sister* He loves to draw too.

Carter: He seems like a cool kid, Peter *smiles, looking up from her clipboard* And it's lovely that you have someone you trust to care for him. Will they be visiting you any time soon?

Erika: *frowns a bit* Hmm... maybe in a few days actually, Peter's been dying to come see this place. *she smiled despite herself, her love for her son obvious*

Carter: *smiles as well* I would love to meet him, when he does come! *Nods in satisfaction at the clipboard and stands up* He might find something that fascinates him here *laughs a little* Maybe I should invite my brothers over sometime, too...

Erika: *laughs, thinking about how much Peter would love Carter's plants* I will make it my mission to bring him here, got to show him off to all my lovely friends. *she chuckled* I'd love to meet your brothers too if you do decide to invite them. We could have a party!

KayVeeDee In reply to RobotsWithCookies [2013-02-23 02:36:11 +0000 UTC]
Carter: *laughs at the mention of the party* That would be fun! Of course, I don't know if I want my brothers corrupting your son with their bad advice. They love to give bad advice. Sometimes they even know that it's bad. *smirks a bit* Aaron, mostly. He's the eldest. Bennet's not as bad- he's a teacher like us! Teaches music at a primary school back home.

Erika: *she smirked at that new information* Oh I see! Well then, I'll just have to show how a mother makes sure to not give her son bad influnces. *actually does what to meet Carter's brothers lol* Music, hmm? I always enjoyed it.

Carter: I'd feel sorry for them if they tried! Hopefully their little sis can keep them out of trouble before you have to worry about them *laughs again and then is directed to the topic of music* You do? What kind of things do you listen to? We're mostly folk and indie back home, family full of supposed-Socialist hipsters or whatever they call us. *grimaces a bit at the thought but returns to the question*

Carter: Can't argue that that's a good policy. Keeps one from sounding elistist, for one. But what a shame. I can only play piano so my original stuff might bore you. *looks out of the clear greenhouse roof and notices it's getting dark* Hm... I might have to lock up here... I'm just never tired, is all. Do you know of any interesting places nearby?

Carter: *raises eyebrows* That so? Well I don't know if there are any nice places to listen to live music around here, but this long weekend I'll be visiting Aaron where he works- lots of fascinating artsy types and whatnot there. I can almost assure you that there are free live performances there nightly. You're more than welcome to come, if you'd like! *smiles* It's about an hour and a half by the train though.

Carter: Really? Awesome! I'll be heading to the station at around 6 this Friday after school, so you can meet me there or we can head over together. You choice. *grins* It'll be just one full day there, but I've got my ticket back here for 4 pm on sunday... *thinks for a moment about whether or not tickets can be bought at the station*

Carter: That's perfectly fine! The ride to the station isn't the most interesting anyway; it would be nice to have the company.
((would you like to rp the actual trip in a note or different comment thread, maybe? A time break seems like it might make sense here ^^))

Carter: *smiles* Perfect! *looks out of the glass roof* I suppose I should be off soon... it's pretty dark out now. But I'll be seeing you on Friday, then!

1. I'm seriously surprised that each and every one of your character manages to be amazing, despite there being a large amount of them.
2. My birthday's the same as her's!
3. "Erika Humphrey" is one of the most British names I've ever heard. I like it.
