Auroris Round 2 by arkeis-pokemon on deviantART

[professor-xander]

Still alive

Looks like I've fallen into inactivity, but I'm still here. I've been slowly making my way through Round 2 and really hope to have something finished by the deadline. I look forward to seeing everyone else's entries. Best of luck to all who are still competing!

Have you ever been in or know of a relationship where one side loves and cares for the other with all their heart, and the other side completely ignores their feelings and barely acknowledges their existence?

Because that is what Xander and Tana's relationship is like right now.

[professor-xander]

Yes I have a question. Are the Pokemon up for rp without Xander? I have desire to rp with Tama yes yes I do

You mean Tana? Tama is Xander's robot.

And yeah, sure, anyone can roleplay with any of the Pokemon!

Watch out for the barbwire! ★~★~★~★~★~★

★ Xander only listens to music without lyrics. He doesn't particularly like the sound of anyone's voice. The only exception is the elusive recording of a Meloetta's song.★ If Xander considers someone or something to be "interesting", that means it is worth at least a few minutes of his time and attention. Otherwise, he won't give it a second thought and will retreat back to his lab.★ If Xander was given a magic lamp that can grant him three wishes, he would throw the lamp away because he doesn't believe in magic.★ Xander shows his approval with a single nod of his head. This generally doesn't happen often.★ Xander's very first word was "Done" when he was just 8 months old. This happened when he successfully build a miniature replica of his crib using wooden blocks.★ He has ticklish spots on the sides of his neck. Although he tries his best to avoid contact with other people, he will flinch if something happens to brush those areas.

★★★ uvu

★ He addressed his parents as "Mother" and "Father" instead of "Mom" and "Dad". ★ Xander is a speed reader. He can read about 1000-1200 words per minute with near 90% comprehension, compared to the average person who can only read 200-300 words per minute.★ Xander has exceptional memory when it comes to numbers. However, his memory is less stellar when it comes to visual information. He can memorize and recite up to 56,943 digits of pi, but he won't be able to remember the color of the shirt you were wearing two days ago.

★★★

★ At 5'9", Xander is the shortest male in his family. His brother and father were both 6 feet or taller.★ Xander goes to sleep at various hours of the night, but he always wakes up at 8 AM sharp. It doesn't matter if he's had 9 hours of sleep or only 2, he always gets up at 8.★ Lately, he has been eating a lot of nuts as a source of Vitamin E, which has been shown to help reduce cognitive decline.

[professor-xander]

[[~(★x★~ )]]

★ Xander created his own TM, which contains Boomburst. However, none of his Pokemon are compatible with it.★ Xander has never been drunk. Not even once. His research on the effects of intoxication on the brain has led him to steer clear of alcohol. Plus, he just doesn't like the taste.

★★★

★ Xander started growing his beard when he turned 20. It started as a simple goatee and eventually became a full beard within a year.  He has never shaved it since.★ His brother had a mischievous Aipom that would constantly annoy him, thus leading to a lifelong hatred of monkey Pokemon.★ 80% of his wardrobe is white or black. The rest are various shades of gray, blue, or green. He doesn't own a single article of clothing that is red, orange, yellow, or purple.

For every "★" I get, I will post a fact about my characters.

[frostysparrow]

You can specify any number of characters you want. You may also specific something you want to hear about, but not too specific. :>

ex: ★ Fears 

[professor-xander]

Before Xander, there was Janus, my other old man OC. Part of the challenge of creating Xander was thinking of how to differentiate him from Janus since they share similar personalities (as well as the same family name). Like Xander, Janus is stoic, keeps to himself, and doesn't care much for other people. However, he is very compassionate when it comes to Pokemon. And he's totally clueless about technology! He's rejected his aristocratic background and became a complete outdoorsman.

I enjoy working with both Xander and Janus. Maybe I'll reprise Janus again if another OCT comes up.

How to Talk like Xander

This is more for my reference, but it can be helpful if you ever want to include Xander speaking in your comics or RPs or whatever.

Xander never uses contractions like "I'm", "you're", or "can't".

He never uses any metaphors, hyperboles, or figures of speech, and he will never use profanity or slang words. He won't even use informal forms of words like "yeah",  "nope", or "hey".

He never shows any hesitation when he speaks. He never stutters or slurs his words and never says "um" or "uh".

He never yells or shouts. If he wants to raise the volume of his voice, he uses one of his inventions - the vocal amplifier.

He says only what is needed and nothing more. He will not engage in idle chatter. However, he can be long-winded when explaining something that is complicated.
