Character Sheet for (Cipher: XD345 Original name: Sternum)
Character Description
A very young, very traumatized little Shadow Cubone.
Personality
Always on edge and nervous due to mental illness. Doesn’t speak much, but will often stare blankly and mumble quietly to himself for hours at a time. Whether he mumbles gibberish is debatable. When he does speak, he also does this quietly and stammers. Despite this, he is very cunning for his age, and will violently lash out when crossed.

Background/History
Sternum is the only child of a single Marowak mother, though it is assumed his father was in the Aron evolutionary line, since he knows Iron Head. He was captured and taken out of his home in Sevault Canyon by a member of Team Cipher and made into a Shadow Cubone. He barely survived the transformation and was placed into a critical care unit at the Cipher labs for a month or so afterwards. During this time, he dared not move, and would silently cry almost constantly. When placed into a glass tank among the other Shadow Pokemon, he acted much the same, huddling in a corner away from the others and tightly grasping the Thick Club his mother had given him as a toddler.
Though he had (and has) absolutely no interest in battling whatsoever, he has shown great potential in it. When taken out of the tank for training, he would only cower away from his opponents at first, but when threatened or provoked too far, would violently and murderously lash out at them, taking advantage of his Shadow End move and his Rock Head ability, which keeps him from taking the considerable recoil damage normally endured by users of the move.
After the lab was destroyed and the Shadow Pokemon escaped, Sternum wandered around the desert, calling out for his mother, completely unaware that she was far away overseas. He was found by Drika and taken in to be cared for as her and Sky’s son, and still stays with them today, though he grieves for his real mother, who he has presumed dead for reasons unknown.
