APPEARANCE
Overall Summary :: Gail is flat out rebel, and dresses however she wants. Her favorite outfit, however, is a small green tee with a pattern of six checks across the chest, and black flared jeans. Any old pair of shoes work, as long as the laces can be tied and there aren't any holes in the soles. Her clothing is comfy, but not so tight as to constrict movement. She is rather clean for someone who travels so much, although it has yet to be seen if she cares about her appearance or not. She wears very little make-up, usually a small amount of black eyeliner and very light, shimmery pink lipstick.
Eye color :: Her eyes are olive, like her mother’s, tinting more toward a bright green. They are almond-shaped.
Hair color :: Gail's hair is naturally light brown, but she has it dyed with streaks of hot pink and dark brown highlights. She almost always has her long locks up in a waist length ponytail, leaving loose longer bangs.

PERSONALITY
Gail is the kind of girl who is layed back, the girl who takes things as they come. She's rather quiet around others, almost cold, preferring to stay in the background and let others lead. She is content in even letting others think of her in this way. She's sneaky too, letting others take the blame for things she's done...and can usually get away with it. Once one gets to know her though, she's rather outgoing and extremely fun. Gail is one that can keep people together, whether they want to be or not.
She mostly keeps her own matters and problems to herself, wanting to work them out on her own and pushing others away harshly if need be. Gail has a lack of motivation...only doing things she wants to do. However, her pokemon training is of top notch, and she cares deeply for her team. Perhaps a little reckless in battles, but her get-go personality is what endears them to her, and they are happy.
Likes :: parties, general rule breaking, making others rave
Dislikes :: simpering, getting caught, doing work
Strengths :: excellent offense
Weaknesses :: rules, candy
TIMELINE
Birth – Gail is born at home, with her grandmother serving as the midwife. There is heavy disappointment that she is not a boy.
3 yrs – Growing arguments between Gail's mother and father at her mother's inability to reproduce a male heir results in Gram Peterson moving in for support. Gail is three.
4 yrs – Finally, a boy is born: Dalton Avenir Wolfe. Gail is four. She is moderately happy at having a sibling, but grows slightly resentful as her father's attention focuses on him.
7 yrs – While she had shown several signs of having interest in pokemon before, shortly after Gail's seventh birthday, it becomes blatantly obvious. While throwing a tantrum (her brother got to go on a week-long vacation with their father), she ran into an orphaned Seel who was crying all on its own. The baby's needs overrode her own, and she brought the creature home to care for it.
10 yrs – Tensions between Gail's parents finally come to an all-time low, and they finally divorce. Her mother travels across the sea and Gail is left behind with Gram Peterson. Gail is ten.
11 yrs – Finally, Gail gets to attend her local Professor's pokemon lecture when she is eleven. Due to her mother not being there for support, she no longer had the motivation to do anything except what she wanted. And what she wanted was to travel with her pokemon. Shortly thereafter, the young girl chose Turtwig for a starter.
13 yrs – Having always been entranced by pokemon, Gail began having long training sessions with her new friends, wanting to become someone her father could be proud of. However, he never spared her a glance, and finally the young lady set off on her own.
15 yrs – Gail travels for nearly two years on her own without any contact from her family. Her mother, having not heard from her daughter in just as long, sent a long and admonishing letter via Poke Mail, carried by a skittish Taillow whom turned out to be a present from her mother. Gail gladly accepts the pokemon as a new member of her team, as her mother had wished.
16 yrs - Poochyena and Houndour were added to the team around a year later, Gail having rescued the caged dogs from the notorious Aqua and Magma groups, one pokemon each from the other team, to show that it was possible to find a common goal and to work together to acheive said goal.
17 yrs - It has taken Gail the most part of her 17th year to track down the elusive Absol, finally locating one. Drawn to it's rotten luck in life, much like her own, Gail catches the wild pokemon and her team is complete. The only thing left is that Victoria Region, known for its notorious reputation of having the best of the elite. She receives an invitation shortly afterward and is currently holding residence in one of the local towns.
