Althea has often heard the words; "cute", "graceful" and "elegant" when she was growing up, though she wouldn't use those words on herself now. She is just above average height for a woman of her aged, accompanied by just the right weight. She has long, flowing soft pink hair which stops at her thighs which contrast against her piercing, ice blue eyes. Though she is a Rocket, they often give a feeling of gentleness, but don't be fooled as foolishness will lead to being stabbed in the back.
Through childhood, Althea was scarred, having to wear the most girlish, frilly and just over the top outrageous outfits by her parents. But now in the position to purchase her own attire, her parents may say back that her choice is equally outrageous. In her pink, flowing locks of hair, Althea wears a black headband with a gold colored diamond pattern. Attached to the headband are two equally shaped squares. Some people believe to think that they are large headphones, blocking out the sound of the world with music. Well, thats what she wants you to think, really, they are a part of a futuristic-looking headset and unfortunately she is able to hear everything which is going on around her. The headset is connected to her Poke Gear, so if she hears any news she can report straight to the higher-ups.
The rest of her outfit flows with the use of black, gold and aquamarine blue as the main colors. She wears a tank-top styled black vest, with gold edging. The collar of the top is decorated with a light blue gem. Althea also wears a long black skirt which hangs just below her knees, though along with a gold decorative pattern, there is a slit down the left side of her skirt. She also wears a loose-fitting gold studded belt. Her legs are kept warm with thigh-high black stockings and brown leathered boots which stop just below her knees. Her boots are decorated with a lattice styled lace.
But looking past her pink hair and blue eyes, something on her arm usually catches peoples attention. A small, red tattoo with the numbers 03 accompanied by an arm band sitting underneath it comfortably. Whilst the numbers may not mean anything, underneath the armband is a capital R, something which may catch attention easier.

♫HISTORY
> > >Ages 0 - 9yrs;
Althea was born in the winterly months in the city of Blackthorn, Johto. Her mother worked in the local Poke mart whilst her father usually traveled away on business. In her younger years, Althea was a bright and cheery child, hanging around with the other local children, getting into mischief and just enjoying life to the full. Her mother and father both had Pokemon themselves, so from her young age she had loved them. They had a pet Dodrio which pecked around in their back garden. Herself and her friends always had fun riding around on it, sometimes Althea would even get a little jealous when her friends paid more attention to the three headed bird than herself.
However, several rumors began to spread around Blackthorn City that the Lemouri family was some how related to the recent incidents with Team Rocket. Several other gossip loving families obviously started to believe this and one by one, Althea's friends were clawed away.
> > >Ages 9 - 15yrs;
Growing into her teens, Althea began to detest the people who lived around her. Every time her mother came back from work, there was an obscene story about an argument breaking out in the store, or even worse, she sometimes came home in tears. Well, until she was eventually kicked out leaving her unemployed. The rumors about Althea's father had turned into a fact, when they saw a short glimpse of him on the news in a Rocket uniform. Herself and her mother were immediately branded as being involved and the whole city seemed to give them the dirtiest of looks. It was so unfair seeing as the pair never had a clue in the first place... People were just so cruel.
Though a few months after her 15th birthday, a package arrived in the mail. It was a small cardboard box, the way the address was written made her mother rip open the box frantically... The handwriting was obviously from her father. Inside of the box were two white envelopes, one addressed to Althea and the other to her mother, aswell a Pokeball. In unison, the pair opened the letters hoping for an explanation about what the hell was going on. Though their heart was broken as they realised how short the letter really was. It was basically saying that he was sorry and that he wouldn't be coming home as he felt ashamed... but continuing the letter he hinted that they had moved to Kanto to deal with some unfinished business.
But there was also an extra part on Althea's letter, stating that the Pokeball and in the Pokemon inside was hers. Something special of which he had caught on his trip. Opening it up, Althea came eye to eye with her very first Pokemon. Vulpix.
> > > Ages 15 - 20yrs;
Wanting to know the full truth, Althea and her new partner was able to grab the train over to the Kanto region, after much needed persuasion and discussion with her mother. She wasn't interested with the gym leaders or other trainers, she only spoke to them to find out rumors about Team Rockets location or any unusual activity. She searched through forests and caves, where she gained a new companion, Cubone. The trio eventually ended up in Saffron City once more, where she found an old Team Rocket building also known as Silph Co. Unfortunately there were no leads, it seemed as if those months of traveling were a total waste. The only good thing was that she had received two powerful companions at the end of it all.
When heading back to Johto on the train, she heard two women talking about the head of Team Rocket, Giovanni, had disbanded the team altogether. Though it seemed far to good to be true, Althea couldn't help but feel somewhat relieved. There was a chance that her father could've escaped the madness and be on the way back home. The next day, Althea arrived back in Blackthorn, back to an abandoned home. Everything was gone, completely. All furniture, the windows were boarded up, there was no sign of dodrio. There was just a sign on the door with the words, VACANT plastered in yellow tape. There was only one place she could turn to for atleast some information, Clair, the gym leader. There was no way she would turn away a 18 year old in need, Team Rocket related or not.
The information Althea gained was quite a shock. Her father did indeed return home, only to grab her mother and all their belongings and high tail it back out of there. Leaving Althea all alone. There was no hint as to where they were heading, only as far away from Blackthorn City as possible. Confused on where to go next, she slowly walked back to her old home to have one final look at it, where she noticed two men in shady suits standing outside. They two obviously spotted her and they approached her with great haste. They revealed themselves to be ex team rocket members and they, too, were looking for her father. But young meat obviously seemed a lot more promising than an old sack of bones as they took her to Team Rockets new HQ instead.
With a mind full of confusion, Althea was forced to sign up to the team, in return, a promise that they would track down her parents. Though years started to pass and the team had began to slowly become... exciting? She was really getting into her role and before she knew it, her parents were sliding down the priority list whilst she was climbing the ranks. To be honest, she was starting not to care. Atleast in this position, she could get revenge from the years of torment.
Hell, the thought was great.

> > >Roleplay Sample;
"Aaaall right Altty... Your next mission is located in New Bark Town. Our head of info. has heard Proffessor Elm has a bunch of Poke eggs from a completely new region past Kanto! Can you believe it?!..."
The sun was beaming down, its soft rays bouncing off the green leaves and flower filled city of Cherrygrove. The bright-pink haired woman sat, her back resting against a shaded tree trunk located near the small lake which flowed through the city. A creamy-coloured, nine tailed fox, was curled into a ball, fast asleep in the sunlight close to the womans lap. A few trees down, a rattling of bones could be heard, it was most likely coming from the Marowak practicing its bonemerang, aiming with perfect precision to flow inbetween the range of trees. Within the lake, random splashes occured from a blue-scaled Seadra, each splash causing the drops of water to glitter brightly in the sunlight. Then finally, the cutest little teddy bear, rolling in the grass inbetween the shadows and lighter areas, licking it's paws furiously.
A soft sigh escaped from the womans lips, making the fox-like pokemon twitch its ears and lift its head, "Old Elm, hm? I suppose I can slide on over there. The fact you are asking me obviously means those grunts are no use." She seemed to snicker slightly to herself, though she was once a grunt herself, she could now understand why the higher ups would always shove her so hard. Grunts were always so whiney, they would say they are the best and then totally let everyone down the next minute. Pathetic. "Hyuck hyuck... Just go and find out what the old geezer has. Possibly grab a few whilst you are at it. yeah, YEAH! That'd please the boss! Go for it then, 'kay?" -beep- The surrounding Pokemon seemed to stop what they were doing as the woman stood to her feet, making the grass crunch and wither beneath her boots, "Come. We make haste for New Bark Town... I'm depending on you all." she spoke, her voice monotone.
She swiftly pulled two small, crimson red Pokeballs from her belt to recall her Seadra and Marowak. Attaching them safely back, she eyed her two remaining ones carefully. Ninetails had only just awoken from her nap, but either way, she was Althea's main partner and always stayed out of her ball. Her somber expression soon changed as the slightest curl occured in the corner of her lips. She gazed on as the fox stretched its front legs and proudly fanned out her extravagant tails. Althea's attention now turned to the small teddy bear rolling about at her feet, looking up at her pleadingly as if to say please let me stay out. Her eyebrow twitched slightly, the little bear always seemed to turn on the charm. "You. Just behave and stick close." she added a quiet hmph on the end, turning on her heel and starting to walk off into the direction of New Bark.
The loving Ninetail gently poked Teddiursa in the back with her snout, trying to get its attention, "Nine-niiine" she chirped. She slowly lowered her body, which was basically and invitation for the little bear to ride on her back. Boldly taking the offer, the pair were now chasing down the dirt path after their master. Althea had even paused for a moment to wait for them, "Come on! We haven't got all day!"
