Garchomp

Garchomp - also known by her actual name, Makya - is a high-levelled Dragon-type who found her way to AM when the mountain she staked out as her territory suffered a small landslide. She fell through a rift and wound up in a completely different world - one that didn't take all that kindly to dragons running about. Terse and fiercely independent, she is taciturn and rather obsessed with fighting, with clear scorn for the confusing ways of a completely new world.

History
Garchomp was born in Sinnoh and raised as a wild Pokemon, without any idea that humans existed for some time. As a Gible, she proved herself worthy of surviving in harsh conditions, and was soon abandoned by her parents to fend for herself. Her life consisted of hunting, defending herself from other Pokemon and sleeping, until a Pokemon trainer passed through the caves and she tried to eat him. She was defeated effortlessly by his own team of Pokemon, who were much stronger than she was, but then he, wanting a Dragon-type, offered to train her so that she could evolve and become stronger. Pride shattered by how easily she had been fended off, she agreed. He gave her the name Makya, meaning "hunter of eagles" and her journey began.

She stayed with her trainer for ten years, evolving twice and learning how to fight with others and to harness her natural energy. Travelling alongside him shaped all of her thoughts and conclusions about the world, as he was the one to teach her emotional restraint and control, using battle as a form of focus and meditation. The journey itself wasn't anything particularly special - they fought gymleaders and the Elite Four, and after failing a few times he instead switched to tournaments, becoming a minor celebrity due to the skills and strength of his team. After those ten years, though, she felt like she had nothing else left to learn when it came to power and her own skills, and took her leave of her trainer.

From then, she travelled to Mount Coronet and staked a claim on it - or at least the caves and tunnels running through it, as the frozen peaks were far too cold for her. It was her territory for three and a half years, until a sudden landslide plunged her through a rift and away from everything she knew.

AM Canon
Garchomp's arrival in AM was a rather momentous event - the rift carried her to a desert, where she met Dimention. They had a brief conversation before he took her to his private dimension, which prompted her to try to kill him when he refused to take her back. Since then, her erratic travels in search of other Pokemon or a way back brought her in contact with a motley assortment of people.

She first encountered Narret near San Francisco, and escorted her back to the city, mostly because as a child she wasn't a threat. Her later encounter with Loki Laufeyson, Terry McGinnis and Sora in Gotham was less peaceful, and since then she has haunted the larger cities. Her most common haunt is New York City, where she was first lost and ended up causing a minor disturbance. With Morgana Pendragon's help, she managed to get out... but since then she's taken to occasionally lurking in the alleys on the outskirts of the city, using the roofs to move around. She also managed to break into a haunted asylum - literally, as she just tore down the door - and started to explore it, alongside Raidou, Ruby, Bao Yu and Dean Winchester.

Most recently, she broke into a circus in which Oswin Oswald was trying to lure out a Krafayis, which she then engaged in combat because she felt like it. Her journey hasn't exactly been enlightening, but more out of a need to find something to fight and something to do besides hunt and sleep.

ICC Canon
Garchomp started off rather similarly - with no idea of where she was or what was going on, she was quick to try and find a way home. Meeting Oswin Oswald and the Eighth Doctor, she almost managed to get back - only to be foiled by her lack of knowledge. Not being able to give the Doctor the name of her own world, she remained stuck in the ICC, where she soon met Regina Mills, Morgana Pendragon, Raidou Kuzohana and a few others that she grew to tolerate.

Soon after her arrival she got into a number of fights - most notably attacking Nyarlathotep, Loki Laufeyson and Richard when they threatened the room at large. During this, she quickly built a rapport with Raidou, who was an impressive fighter, and grew closer to Oswin. They became friends, with Garchomp protecting her whenever trouble happened, and eventually she moved into the TARDIS as a drifting member of its motley crew. Since then, she has been slowly changing her outlook on the importance of battles, and attempting to define herself outside of fighting. So far she has kept her interactions ostensibly neutral outside of the circle of those she trusts and likes - while she will rush to defend Oswin or Regina, a complete stranger is far more likely to just be left on their own in case of a fight.

The actions of Loki in particular, as well as Nyarlathotep, Cora Mills, Pitch Black and Hazama all earned her enmity. Despite how own ineffectiveness against most of the villains who appear - as she simply proved useless against gods and the superior magic and skills of most of them - she took it upon herself to defend the area at large from them. That she is too weak to prove any sort of threat only has motivated her to get stronger once more, though it is a long and arduous process.

Personality
Rather unsurprisingly given her appearance, Garchomp does not talk much. When she does, it reflects much of her attitude - terse and to the point, dropping grammar whenever possible unless she deems it very important. She is quick to get to the point of things, with clear scorn and contempt for worrying about the future or quibbling over unimportant details. As fitting with her typing, she is proud - she is used to some measure of respect from others. She looks down on humans a little, and expects them to be weaker than her - but she also looks out for them, restraining her actions so as to not hurt them by accident. Befitting a Pokemon trained to battle, she is quick to fight, but for reasons beyond simply finding pleasure in violence.

Easily overwhelmed by emotion and prone to fits of unthinking rage, she uses fighting as a way to focus herself and attain a state of complete calm, ridding herself of negative emotions. Until she does so, she is snappish and easy to rile or goad, but afterwards, she can be quite companiable. Independent and fiercely protective of her space, she holds others at a scornful distance until she decides that she likes them - and those she cares for gain an incredibly loyal friend who will try to defend them from all danger.

Overall, Garchomp is rather straightforward and quick to act, with a fondness for rather sharp humour when at ease. She has a pragmatic approach to life - all things come to an end, even friendship or bonds or life itself - and accepts it with a complete lack of fuss.

Abilities
Garchomp is a naturally powerful Pokemon - an attribute only enhanced by her skill in battle. Her senses, speed, strength and endurance are impressive in comparison to a human. She can channel her own natural energy into Dragon-type moves and is capable of either firing a beam of that energy, strengthening her physical attacks with it or summoning meteors. She can break apart even dense stone and can dig through almost any material with ease. She can summon sandstorms to give herself a terrain advantage, and can also breathe short-range fire. She can glide for short distances, and if she takes a running leap, she can move incredibly fast.
