Lorias (Aura)

## Description

Lorias manifests as a multicolored, moving canvas of the user in a heroic action meant to bolster allies and intimidate opponents. With less experienced users the colors are faint and blurred, but as the user gets stronger in the aura it becomes more bright and concise. If the user becomes extraordinarily depressed or damaged emotionally the aura can manifest as the user experiencing defeat.

## History

Before the world-merge there was a young human girl by the name of Lorias whom, even at the youngest of ages was considered a prodigy. Whether it be singing, dancing, poetry, painting, or playing an instrument Lorias managed to pick it up and look like a professional within a few weeks of practice. Soon the dance performances, choir recitals, poetry readings, painting exhibits all bored her, so she sought to combine her many talents into playwriting. After spending years writing scripts, handcrafting sets, making music, and finding actors and musicians with the talent to fit her needs, she was only a few days away from her opening night when the world-merge came, destroying her sets, taking away her cast members, and worst of all, stealing her audience. Turned into a Vulpix she no longer had the alacrity or the precision to continue her art, but her willpower manifested as an aura that allowed her to continue her creations. The aura was hence named after her, and from then on was exhibited by any pokemon more consumed by the arts than a lust for battle.
