Naomi Westbrooke
Name: Naomi Elvria Westbrooke.
Nickname: Chanteur.
Gender: Female.
Age: Twenty.
Home Region: Kanto.
Class: Gym Leader.
Position: Pewter City Gym Leader.
Play By: Alphard Alshaya from CANAAN.
Description: Naomi is fairly tall on her own, standing at about 5'9'', but she often wears boots to make herself appear even taller. She has a slender build, though her body is rippling with tough, lean muscles, giving her quite a tough appearance. She weighs somewhere between 120-130lbs, but she'll never say exactly where. Her hair is raven black and is almost always tied back in a ponytail. She has large, dark brown eyes that almost appear to be black. Her outfits are almost always black, but she does also have a fondness for blue and purple. She likes clothing that looks good, and prefers style over comfort. Her left forearm is covered by a black tribal tattoo.
Personality: Naomi likes to make people think that she is tough, though really she is quite sweet. She has a soft spot for children and pokemon, and can rarely refuse to help someone when asked nicely. She has a fondness for nature, and often likes to go out for walks when she isn't busy in the gym. That said, there is a reason for her tough reputation. She is incredibly temperamental and will not take disrespect from anyone. Those who get on her bad side quickly learn how she managed to become a gym leader at such a young age.
She can often be quite gullible or forgetful; her mind betrays her rather often. For the most part, she tries to think the best of people. This has often lead her into trouble in the past, when cruel people took advantage of her trust. She is trying to learn to be a bit more careful around others, but she has not had much success.
Much of the time, Naomi can appear to be quite calm and passive. Usually, this just means that she is thinking about something and is lost in her own little world. Sometimes, she also does this to try to keep her emotions in check, or she just does it because she knows that it irritates people.

History: The first fifteen years of Naomi's life were quite uneventful. She was born in the Kanto region in Pewter City, and there she was raised, in quiet urban bliss. Her mother had died while giving birth to her, so it was just her and her father. The two of them had a simple but comfortable life in the city, where one day just seemed to blend into the next.
About a month after her fifteenth birthday, it all changed. Her father was killed in a rock slide on Mt. Moon, and Naomi was left in the world alone. She had to learn how to fend for herself. Over the next few years, she got herself into all sorts of trouble. She had begun to hang out with the wrong crowd, and they were driving her farther and farther down a dark path.
It wasn't until she met a young man, who introduced himself as Ares, that she began to turn her life around. He helped her turn away from her old life and start working towards a new one. He even helped her catch her first pokemon, a geodude she named Petra. Once, she decided to ask him why he had helped her. His only response was that, "she reminded him of someone he once knew."
A year after Ares came into her life, she applied for, and somehow managed to get, the gym leader position at the Pewter City gym. She kept on the gym's tradition of specializing in rock pokemon, partly because of her loyalty to the city, and partly because of Petra.
Since then, she has been doing her best to run the gym, though she often finds it rather difficult. However, she and Ares are still close, and she knows he will always be there if she needs him.
