Chiyo, formally known as Iridium, is an escaped School subject and one of its longest lasting fugitives, having successfully evaded capture or liquidation for more than 20 years.
Appearance
Chiyo is about 5'3", has the general School phenotype of dark hair with purple eyes, the former she keeps in a ponytail, and has a light brown skin complexion. She tends to prefer clothes that don't stand out, partially out of personal style preference and partially to avoid School attention, but likes wearing light blue when she gets the chance. Around her neck is a birthday present from her Curium, a necklace with a star and a rainbow trailing behind it, which doubles as a keepsake.
Personality
Chiyo is generally kind, but decades of having to dodge the School has given her a ruthless edge when it comes to life or death struggles despite her dislike of killing and compassion for her fellow Schoolchildren. As a result of being a fugitive, she has trouble getting close to people out of fear of the School harming them and/or using them as bargaining chips to coerce her cooperation.
Abilities
Chiyo is a psychic who specializes in the use of barrier constructs. While she can use them defensively as expected, she can also use them offensively in the form of sending them crashing into people, creating small barriers with sharp edges in order to throw them at enemies offensively, or having Dactyl bounce off of them in order to increase his momentum. Chiyo can also form miniature barriers inside people's major blood vessels in order to give them lethal strokes, but the technique requires a lot of concentration and so it's impractical in open combat.
Relationships
- Tagg once saved her from Templars when he was starting out as a trainer, an action she's quite grateful for decades later.
- Gets along generally well with her fellow Oasis members, being particularly close to the Faller duo Nicky and Kendra.
- Was very close with the Curium of her batch, and was devastated by her premature death from cancer.
- Dactyl was her first Pokémon and remains her closest friend.
Trivia
- Chiyo has a great interest in astronomy.
- Her Aura is a unique rainbow color, but has no relation to the multicolored Aura commonly seen in Aura Vampires.
