Brunhild Mol

**Brunhild Mol** was a Cipher Peon. She is known for being the daughter of Dakim, and sought to follow in her father's footsteps.

## Personality

Brash, headstrong, and proud of her physical strength, her battle style is fit to match, focusing on large Pokémon with high attacking and defensive power. She's as stubborn as rock with the courage to match, and won't hesitate to step in if her coworkers can't get something done.

## History

Much of Brunhild's past is unknown. Due to being born in Gaolé, she was given two starter Pokémon rather than one.

At some point, a quarrel between her parents led to her father leaving, and Brunhild was left with her transphobic mother. Upon coming of age, she left the abusive household to search for her father, with the secondary goal of becoming just as strong as him.

When she heard that a faction of Cipher still existed, she immediately sought to join, thinking Dakim might be there. To her disappointment, he wasn't, but she stayed in Cipher anyway, determined to follow in his footsteps.

After Cipher was disbanded, her location has become unknown.

## Relationships

### Familial

#### Dakim

Brunhild remembers Dakim fondly, and has a deep respect for him. That being said, she wishes he hadn't left, and is determined to find him again.

#### Emako

Initially close to her mother, they were divided when Emako did not support Brunhild's transition. As a result, Brunhild left on a Trainer's journey and cut contact with her mother. Maybe after all these years, Emako has seen the error of her ways...but reuniting would be difficult now.

### Romantic

Brunhild once had a partner, but the two broke up when Brunhild came out as transgender. Despite this, Brunhild seems to bear them no ill will, and they support her new identity even if their relationship didn't work out.

Brunhild has yet to find a new partner, but she does secretly have a crush on someone.

### Platonic

#### Ein

Brunhild respects Ein, but isn't particularly fond of how he keeps sending Freida out alone even though he knows how often she gets attacked.

#### Freida Agire

After accidentally scaring her in their first meeting, Brunhild became determined to protect Freida. In a Halloween event, Brunhild became an Emboar, and saved the now-Wishiwashi Freida from suffocating, and then stood guard outside her tank until everyone turned back. The two have since bonded, and Brunhild is often the first to come to Freida's rescue.

#### Maxime Incolore

Though initially just considering him a weird coworker, she slowly began to trust him due to his friendship with Freida. After unintentionally learning his secret, she understands his odd behavior now, and though the two have become friends, she also pities him because of it.

## Pokémon

### Current Team

#### Baharat (Male Houndoom)

Baharat previously belonged to Dakim, and has joined Brunhild on her journey. Due to his old age, he usually doesn't battle, but is still decently strong. Brunhild often calls him Old Spice or Ol' Spicy.

#### Killer (Male Shadow Nidoking)

Killer is Brunhild's Shadow Pokémon, and the combination of berserk energy and Nidoking's natural aggression has left Killer a brutal beast. Brunhild alone is able to control him, and he refuses to bow to any other authority.

#### Beast (Female Tyrantrum)

She wants food. At all times. She frequently tries to appear cute in the hopes of getting people to feed her, like a puppy begging for scraps. Of course, when that doesn't work, she can just rampage and get the food by force. But she tries to be nice!

#### Cannon (Male Blastoise)

One of Brunhild's starter Pokémon, and arguably the calmest member of Brunhild's team. He can be a bit smug at times, but his pride does not keep him from sticking his neck out for the team. He would love to accomplish Mega Evolution someday.

#### Jojo (Male Primeape)

Probably named after an anime character. The most recent addition to Brunhild's team.

#### Plague (Female Pinsir)

Plague prefers to wander outside of her Net Ball, but is usually outside of the base, devouring nearby leaves. Surprisingly, she is very afraid of Freida for reasons unknown. Perhaps she doesn't like scaring Freida?

### Other Members

#### Tanker (Male Chesnaught)

Brunhild's other starter Pokémon. Due to unknown circumstances, he remained with Brunhild's mother. Perhaps he is helping Emako to understand the error of her ways...

## Trivia

* Brunhild is one of few characters in the Prism universe to be related to a canon Pokémon character. In her case, these characters are Dakim from Pokémon Colosseum, who is her father, and Emako from Pokémon Ga-Olé, who is her mother.
