EVE • NIVENEH • ARKS
I'll be a witness in the silences when words are not enough...
• Labels Do Not Define Me •
Name: Eve Niveneh Arks
Age: 20
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Straight
Status: Breeder
• On The Outside Looking In •
Hair: Green
Eyes: Gold
Scars/Markings: N/A
General Appearance: Peridot green hair, sparkling gold eyes and fair beige skin, Eve's slender build stands at five feet six inches. She normally keeps her long hair down, letting it sweep down below the hips and near the knee. All around her from head to toe, it's pretty much guaranteed that you can't find a single flaw in terms of physical appearance. She is a perfectionist and it perfectly reflects on her outward presentation, the way she dresses, the way she walks, the way she talks. Every single strand hair on her head has to be in its exact position. In everything she does, she portrays an air of grace.
Eve doesn't really have any sort of distinctive features that would deem her 'unique' except perhaps her green hair. Her attire changes from time to time to suit her mood but more often than not, she wears a simple wide collared white dress that modestly cuts around her knees. This dress doesn't have much design but that's just fine with her. However, one distinctive feature of her attire is that her sleeves are huge, and I'm saying that without the slightest exaggeration. The only way you would be able to see her hands is if she holds them up vertically. When placed down by her sides, her slender hands disappear entirely. Nobody knows for sure that there are some that suspect that she keeps her pokeballs within these large sleeves, making in convenient to draw them out at any given time.
Other than that, Eve is quite the sucker for accessories ranging from bangles to hair clips to earrings. This highly contradicts with her so called 'modest' themed outlook she had going about her so, as much as she's attracted the shiny, pretty objects, she only wears so many at any given time, very careful not to do an overkill. Her trademark accessories include two gold hairpins she clips on a lock of hair.

Personality:
As a breeder descended from a long line of breeders, most likely, the most distinctive feature of Eve in her arsenal of personalities is her patience. Eve possesses an endless pit of serenity and tolerance that amazes even her parents who have been breeding all their lives. Of course, this comes from constantly having to take care of young Pokémon. Practically nothing in existence has the ungodly ability to get on her nerves. If you do, then all that can be said is that you deserve a medal. Eve spends nearly every second of her life smiling a smile that radiates warmth and gentleness. She’s kind and caring, probably even to the extent of being too much for her own good. Her fragile little heart would shatter upon seeing the slightest heartbreaking scene.
However, at the same time, she’s a strong girl. Eve could go to pieces on the inside but on the outside, she’ll hold a strong front, at least until she can find a solitary place where she can breakdown on her own without any witnesses. She won’t allow herself to shed tears in the presence of others. In most situations, Eve tells herself that she has to be the one to comfort others; that she has to be there for others, to tell them it’s alright and that the storm will pass. They just had to hold on. How on earth could she possibly do that if she were to fall apart herself as well? Who would be there to voice the words that would comfort the souls of innocents? This is a subconscious side to her personality, of course. It’s almost second nature to her.
Eve is totally and entirely focused on her work and she takes it very seriously. However, even when looking at it like that, Eve enjoys what she does to the point where it seems more like a favorite pastime than an actual responsibility. Pokémon are her passion and she plainly adores them. Whenever she has spare time, she dedicates herself to improving and honing her skills to becoming the best breeder that she can be. She’s not entirely ambitious as to state that her goal in life is to become the world’s number one breeder but she does want to help to be able to help in whatever situation that call’s for a breeder’s expertise. She hates being helpless or useless. The frustration she gets out of it is practically enough to drive her to tears. She can do without the fame, she can do without riches and all the sort but one thing she cannot have is a situation where she’s supposed to have been able to help but for some reason, failed.
As stated above, Eve is a patient person that’s slow to any emotion even faintly and remotely related to anger. However, there’s one thing that can give you and instant ticket to her bad side and that’s mistreating Pokémon. If she catches you abusing Pokémon in any fashion, you’re instantly on dislikes list. Normally, Eve is against excessive violence but she is well aware that to protect the things that you love, you also need power. Neglecting training for her own Pokémon is not something that she would do but she is against picking fights just for the hell of it. Pokémon battles and league championships are alright with her but not something that she would pursue. She is a good judge on Pokémon behavior and their limits. She carefully moderates her own Pokémon, knowing exactly when to stop pushing. However, it is this same principle that faults her at times. Eve doesn’t have the heart to push any of her the Pokémon under her own care far beyond their limits so improving comes at only regular paces.
Beyond this very responsible side of Eve that plays dominant most of her every waking moment is a playful part that is very capable of witty sarcasm and the like. When given the right motive, she enjoys depriving people of what they want out of good heart just for the sake of watching their reaction. She doesn't do this with everyone, of course. Just a few choice people that she finds close enough. A simple last item to note is that, in accordance to a fact stated above that Eve dislikes excessive violence, is that she is rather fond of pokemon that excel speed wise. This is because she wants to finish her battles in the quickest ways possible to lessen the chances of getting hurt, especially by attacks that hurt in the long run.

History:
Eve Niveneh Arks was born into the Arks family of breeders as the eldest child to Charles and Avalon Arks. Eve couldn’t ask for a better childhood as she was constantly in an atmosphere of care and kindness whether the love and affection was directed at her or the Pokémon that her parents took care of. The Arks family were never very ambitious people, always living a modest lifestyle. They would help any stranger in any form that passed along their humble establishments in search of aid. The Arks would never turn a blind eye to a stray pokemon they happened across that was wounded or otherwise incapable of taking care of itself for the time being. Through years and years, both pokemon and people were shuffled through the doors of their small but lovely home. The memories of some lingered more than others but either way, before long, all their guest would leave at the end of the day. Perhaps this was where a small part of her build up. No doubt, love, affection and her immense ability to care came from this upbringing but also, a small part of her came to subconsciously believe that no matter what you did, the things around you would fade away regardless of your efforts. Of course, this side was never very prominent, always lingering at the very back of her head until one day...
Avalon Arks was bedridden by an illness. Temporarily, Charles, Eve's father, closed down his breeding business in order to spend more time taking care of his wife. As a result, the atmosphere around the Arks Estate gradually changed to one much more akin to depressing and lonely. As Eve's mother's illness grew more serious, the more Charles started neglecting Eve and her sister, Erica, in desperate attempts to keep his lover by his side longer. She was ten at the time, Erica being two years younger. Although Charles was a gifted breeder, he had limited knowledge about dealing with sick humans so all of a sudden, the household started filling up with medical books along side breeding ones. With mostly nothing better to do, the sisters started picking them up and educating themselves. It was only when their children eyes started perceiving their father's helplessness did something snap within their minds. All of a sudden, their mother's sickness became a motivation for them. They couldn't do anything right now but that would change.
Day ran over day and nights rolled by, Avalon's illness would only get worst. Each day that passed, the Arks had to suffer the feeling of total helplessness. There was nothing that they could do to ease their mother's sufferings. No physicians or doctors could do anything to help either. Eve and her sister were never allowed to be in the same room as the doctor whenever he was giving a diagnostic so till this day, Eve doesn't even know the name of the illness that had brought along such a black cloud over their family. It became clear that there would be no cure available with the current standards of medicine. It was one day when these feelings entirely overwhelmed the girl of fifteen and she broke down in frustration. It became something like a silent vow to always contribute her life to the increasing of knowledge so that nothing like this would ever happen again. As if her mother's final wishes had finally been stated and accomplished, she passed not too long after, devastating her husband and children.
More than forcing herself to stay strong, she, seeing herself as the eldest child and older sister, convinced herself that she couldn't afford to shed too many tears. She had to take care of them, her father and sister. It took years more for the wounds to slowly stitch back together but they did in the end, somewhat. Life slowly resumed back to its previous state as they reopened their breeding services. Although life resumed, there were certain holes that remained among the household. Holes of which Eve would try to fill no matter what. It was only a few years later that everyone started to smile more often now. It was only then when Eve had the heart and confidence to make her own request: to travel. She wanted to travel across the vast lands of the Star Region in order to collect and learn as much knowledge as possible, be it concerning breeding or medicine for humans (she had gotten pretty good by reading all those books in her youth). And so, leaving her father and the Arks breeding center to her sister, Erica, she left one silverly morning.
