Dislikes:
- Tight spaces - they make him feel trapped and uncomfortable. If in a tight space for a long time, Remus begins to hyperventilate
- Injustice - something about the unfairness of society has always boiled his blood

- Bleeding heart - Remus is the kind of person to take foolish risks in order to help out someone who needs him, even if it is none of his business

Remus also enjoys playing sports or games with others, even if he is terrible at them.
- Outgoing/Charismatic - One of Remus' greatest fears is being alone. He does his best to avoid becoming alone by spending as much time as possible with others.

- Loyal/Understanding - Remus is the kind of person to put himself in someone's shoes to try and understand their way of thinking. He's loyal to his friends and loved ones and will never abandon them, no matter what. He's accepting of other's weaknesses and never judges for something he cannot understand.
- Stubborn/Foolhardy - While Remus is definitely courageous, he is also very foolhardly. On many occassions, Remus oversteps his boundaries.

He struggles to accept help from others.
- Vengeful/Unrelenting - He holds onto the past with an iron grip and will never forgive or forget. Remus still holds onto the loss of his family, blaming Pravus and pokemorphs alike. He swears vengence and will not rest until he gets it.
BACKGROUND:
History:
- Early Life. Remus was born and raised in the household Nautilis. He grew up with his father, mother, and two older brothers. They lived in a large home on a more rural area on the outskirts of Nada Citadel. He spent most of his earlier years attending school, helping his mother around the house, and being bullied by his older brothers. His father was always away on business; so, Remus never saw much of his father or even knew him very well. At the time, it seemed rather normal.
- Finding Magz. When Remus was thirteen years old, he came home from school one day to his mother screaming. He raced into the house to find that a ghost pokemon had wandered in through the walls and it had frightened his mother. She was a young and small Mismagius. Remus managed to scare her away, in order to calm his mother down; however, for whatever reason, the Mismagius never left. She remained hidden around the home and grounds in secret for a few weeks. One day, while Remus was being bullied by his brothers, the Mismagius came flying into the room, making all sorts of noises, and scared the boys away. Ever since, Remus and Magz, which he nicknamed her, have been best friends. It took a while, but his brothers and mother eventually came to like Magz, as well.
- The Fire. Remus' life changed entirely when he was seventeen years old. His father returned home from a regular business trip. He seemed happy and everything appeared to be perfectly normal. However, at around one in the morning, Remus woke to Magz shaking him. Annoyed, he crawled out of bed and began hacking. Immediately, he realized the house was on fire. He managed to make it down the stairs to the living room before the flames engulfed the staircase and it crumbled. His mother had crawled into the living room and was lying unconscious on the floor. He managed to carry his mother out of the house; but, his father and brothers did not make it out. Before passing out, Remus recalled the sight of a strange being wandering the grounds.
- Healing. When Remus awoke, he was being treated in the hospital for burns and heavy smoke inhalation. He remained in the hospital for about a week, being treated for his injuries. After some pestering, he managed to learn that his mother was in intensive care and had been ever since the fire.
- Carrying on. After being released from the hospital, Remus got a job and began to make his own way. He was able to afford a small apartment in the slums; but, he never stopped visiting his mother. After being in the hospital for almost a month, she passed away. To this day, he has a phobia of fire and on occasion, suffers from his injuries. He has pursued and investigated the death of his family, believing it was a pokemorph who set the fire...

ROLE-PLAYING SAMPLE:
Remus walked along the side of the road until he crossed the mailbox that looked like a chicken; after all, mother loved to decorate almost everything with chickens. Once he passed it, something washed over him and drove him to begin running. Magz floated behind him in silence. He ran past the picket fence and the ugly orange trees; then, he was standing at what was left of the front porch.
The entire house was on the ground: black rubble and ash. The birch trees that mother had loved so much, that grew along the left side of the house, had all burnt down. The rocking chair that was never used, but always sat on the front porch, was completely gone. Everything that he remembered about this place was gone. He heard Magz make a sad noise; but, he decided to ignore it. He had to know why this happened. Remus rolled up his sleeves, stepped carefully onto the rubble, and began rummaging through it.
