Appearance

Axis Hunter is a 21-year-old enby with medium-length blond hair and brown eyes, along with a fairly androgynous appearance. They are usually seen wearing a yellow shirt (the yellow representing their sign, Gemini) with the green Homestuck spirograph in the middle of it, as well as a Greek parthenon in the center of the spirograph. This serves as a representation of both their love of Homestuck and their love of Greek... everything, barring the language. They also wear blue jean shorts and a pair of white shoes.

Backstory

Axis was born on June 12th, 2000-- a date which would turn out to be prophetic for them. They spent most, if not all, of their childhood learning about Greco-Roman... everything, including the zodiac, constellations, mythos, and especially the gods and goddesses. On their tenth birthday, their love of the Greek zodiac led to them discovering a little thing called Homestuck-- and that date just so happened to be the one in which a certain thing called "Hivebent" started, and a group of characters called "trolls" were introduced. This fueled an interest in Homestuck so big that Axis declined receiving a Pokemon on said tenth birthday, wanting to wait instead until Homestuck was done. Eight years later, that happened, and in addition to that they had been accepted into a prestigious community college at 18 and learned Monese in their spare time. After graduation, their parents celebrated by giving Axis Poke Balls and allowing them to catch their first Pokemon- and this time Axis happily obliged. Deciding to catch an initial team of 12 Pokemon based on the Greek Olympians (and corresponding to a zodiac sign), they started with the god that corresponded to their sign of Gemini-- Hermes. This led them to catch their first Pokemon in the form of a fast-paced, fast-talking, advert-loving Ninjask that they named Tekkan. A few days later, they left for their Pokemon journey.

Personality

Axis is, in every regard, a nerd-- and not just because they have interests in Homestuck and Greek mythos, though both of those things are very much apparent at first glance. They are very knowledgeable about a lot of things, and like Kimberly Bond is extremely studious and hard-working, having gotten into a prestigious community college at the age of only 18 years old. However, despite their knowledge, they are also more humble than Kimberly Bond is-- they don't prefer to show off their knowledge directly unless someone asks them a question or notices their shirt. That having been said, though, their love of Homestuck and Greek mythos is very much apparent. They wear a shirt with the Homestuck spirograph and a parthenon on it, they refer to battles as "strifes", their chat handle is hellenicSburbia612, and they are setting up a team of 12 Greek-inspired Pokemon with six letters in their names. However, they are not able to speak the Greek language, being more invested in mythos than linguistics. They can be a bit nervous and awkward at times, especially when meeting new people, and can be a bit difficult when it comes to standing up for themselves. Despite this, however, they are for the most part a good-natured person who enjoys meeting new people and Pokemon, even if said people and Pokemon have little to no interest in Homestuck or Greco-Roman mythos. In a similar regard to Colton, they treat their Pokemon like a friend, rather than a pet, and can be a bit put off and/or embarrassed by Tekkan's excitability and antics. However, they very much love and care for him, and will likely do the same for the other eleven Pokemon they catch in the future.

Personality Profile

Your name is AXIS HUNTER.

You quite literally stumbled into this J-CON thingy. You don't even know what the J-TEAM is, since for most of your life you have been OBSESSED WITH HOMESTUCK, and only just now started on your POKEMON JOURNEY. However, you decided to check it out anyway due to your MASSIVE NERDINESS and desire to meet NEW PEOPLE AND POKEMON. You are VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE when it comes to certain things, including POKEMON. However, your two biggest INTERESTS are HOMESTUCK AND GREEK MYTHOS. In fact, your love of the former led you directly to the latter. Your love of HOMESTUCK in particular is so apparent that you have started to refer to POKEMON BATTLES as POKEMON STRIFES and refer to your POKE BALLS as BALLKIND ABSTRATII-- but you do not call your POKEMON LUSUSES-- LUSI?-- under any circumstances. You have memorized the TYPING QUIRKS of EVERY SINGLE HOMESTUCK TROLL, and sometimes find yourself typing with commas instead of periods on occasion. This is because, despite your sign being GEMINI, you identify the most with TAVROS-- and does it ever show.

In terms of your actual PERSONALITY you are rather HUMBLE despite your GREAT KNOWLEDGE OF HOMESTUCK. In fact, you seem to be a bit EMBARRASSED by your NERDY PURSUITS, despite your SHIRT and clear adoration of them. You don't usually prefer to show off your knowledge of GREEK MYTH or HOMESTUCK unless someone ASKS YOU ABOUT IT DIRECTLY or NOTICES YOUR SHIRT. You can be rather NERVOUS and AWKWARD around other people, and have trouble STANDING UP FOR YOURSELF, hence you relating yourself to TAVROS. However, you have a great deal of LOVE AND RESPECT for your SOLE POKEMON, TEKKAN, as well as ALL POKEMON YOU COME ACROSS. You enjoy MEETING NEW PEOPLE AND POKEMON, even if you are a bit awkward around them, and are generally a very AMICABLE and GOOD-NATURED PERSON. In a similar regard to one KIMBERLY BOND, you also have a bit of a soft spot for CUTE POKEMON, but are open to catching more INTIMIDATING or BEAUTIFUL-LOOKING POKEMON. This is very much FORESHADOWING FOR THE FUTURE. In fact, one of the reasons you caught TEKKAN in the first place-- other than his BLISTERING SPEED and LOVE OF ADVERTISING-- is that to you, NINJASK is a RELATIVELY CUTE POKEMON. Like BOND AND BRAKER, you think the cutest Pokemon in the world are FLOOFY ELECTRIC SPOODER FRENS-- even though you have yet to actually meet one. Yet. Besides, not only are they floofy, but VRISKA SER(S)KET exists!

...Anyways. MOVING ON.

You can sometimes find yourself a bit EMBARRASSED by the antics of your FAST-PACED and ADVERT-LOVING STARTER POKEMON, but you sincerely LOVE TEKKAN with all your heart and treat him like a FRIEND, giving him as much RESPECT as possible. Oh, and also your two favorite HOMESTUCK TROLLS are NEPETA LEIJON and FEFERI PEIXES, and your favorite of the twelve GREEK OLYMPIANS is POSEIDON, so...

You unfortunately do not have HASSLEMON yet, but if you did, your HASSLEMON HANDLE would be hellenicSburbia (HS) and you tend to speak slightly awkwardly, but mostly just sound a bit NERDY, especially if you are discussing one of your INTERESTS,

Trivia

• According to Goldenheart388, Axis' regular character theme is "How Far We've Come" by Matchbox Twenty.
• According to Goldenheart388, Axis' Hasslemon handle, if they had one, would be hellenicSburbia. This is reflected in their standard chat handle, hellenicSburbia612-- the "hellenic" part serves as a synonym for "Greek" (Greece is officially referred to as the Hellenic Republic), whereas the "Sburbia" half is a pun on the word "suburbia" as well as the Homestuck game Sburb.
• Axis' birthday, June 12th, is the date that Hivebent began and the trolls were introduced in Homestuck.
• Axis' name has the same naming scheme as the Homestuck kids: a four-letter first name and a six-letter last name. Likewise, Tekkan has the same naming scheme as the trolls in Homestuck- his name is six letters long, and assuming he has the last name "Hunter", it's twelve letters long. According to Goldenheart388, all of Axis' future Pokemon will have six letters in their names.
• Axis is the only one out of all three of Goldenheart388's main human player characters-- Axis, Leonard Braker, and Kimberly Bond-- to have a typing quirk, albiet a relatively subdued one. They are also the only one to have a text color tied to them: gold.
