Mysto

**Mysto** is the main region of The Secret of the Idol. It is a unique land to the world due to its abundance of magic, shaping its environment and granting its inhabitants the ability to wield magic.

## History

Long before it was named, Mysto was widely regarded by its denizens as the first landmass forged by the gods as they shaped the known universe. As the starting ground to forming the world, much of the gods' power was infused into the land overtime. To oversee production and chronicle the history of its development, Uxie devised a library that would record the history of each lifeform residing in its land and their advancements as a culture. Eventually, the gods pursued to shape more lands across the world before returning to the Hall of Origin.

At some point, the chronicling center was decommissioned as Uxie developed more efficient ways to record life across the world. Not wanting his creation to be destroyed, Uxie sealed it away within a dimension outside mortal reach.

## Regional Zones

When magic started to be embraced by Mysto's people, it began to spread wildly across its far reaches and alter the environment. As time progressed, changes occurred that created different biomes for the Pokémon to reside in. These biomes were self-contained by magical forces, allowing their climates to thrive without the conflicts of weather or temperature affecting the natural order. This is how a colder environment can exist beside a zone with sweltering heat without complications.

### Earth Zone

The Earth Zone is known primarily for its abundance of plains and mountains. It is a land filled with open space and unique rock formations. Of the seven primary zones, it is the most habitable for all life. The land is fertile, making it a hot spot for farmers to grow crops. It is considered the most normal zone compared to the rest of the world's less bizarre weather.

The Earth Zone is bordered by the Desert and Fire Zone.

### Fire Zone

The Fire Zone is considered to be the least habitable biome, both for Mysto's denizens and sustaining life. The land is scorched and cracked as if ravaged by flames. It is known for its pockets of hot gas jettisoning from the ground and the dreadful ash storms that blow through on occasion. Plants struggled to grow due to the lands unfertile conditions, and the few flora that grows in the Fire Zone isn't useable beyond building material and some medicines.

The Fire Zone is bordered by the Earth and Aqua Zone.
The Secret of the Idol

The Secret of the Idol is an ongoing series of the PM64 Storyline, revolving around the region of Mysto that has developed a spring of magic through its land over countless generations. The story focuses on main character, Wes Ravenfield, and his ever-expanding team as they venture through the many lands and corners of Mysto to uncover a forgotten legend. In their adventure, they must fight back against the looming threat of the Tribe of Shadows.

Linota Pernelle

**Linota Pernelle** (Rattata) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. She is a knight of the Senbo Kingdom and a member of Erasmus Talbot's personal guard.

## Personality

Linota is headstrong and hotheaded, often the first to act when performing her responsibilities as a knight. She often seeks to get up close and settle problems directly. She is capable of showing restraint, but often acts first when danger arises.

Linota is blunt with her words, never sugarcoating what she has to say even if she knows it's wrong. She speaks critically to get to the point, often calling out others for their flaws or any quirks that irritate her. She tries to wrangle this side of herself in whenever she interacts with Erasmus, but never strays from stating what's on her mind.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-**

**Shield Proficiency-**

### Moveset

**Ability-** Hustle

* Flame Wheel
* Pursuit
* Super Fang
* Revenge
* Skull Bash
* Wild Charge

### Enhanced Moves

* **Wheel of Justice-** A combination of Flame Wheel and Pursuit. She coils flames around her buckler shields and pursues her fleeing target with increased speed.
* **Wheel of Vengeance-** A combination of Skull Bash and Revenge. She blocks an attack with her shields, then retaliates with a headbutt-shield bash combo, increasing the potency of the damage.
* **Wheel of Suffering-** A combination of Flame Wheel and Super Fang. She coils flames around her buckler shields, then curls into a ball to attack her target. This attack is most useful in prolonged stalemates. The heat of her flames and activation of Super Fang generates an effect that gradually depletes a target's stamina.
* **Wheel of Defiance-** A combination of Super Fang and Pursuit. This is a homing-esque attack designed by Linota to chase targets across any surface.
Klaus Geier

**Klaus Geier** (Morgrem) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. He is a member of the Foresters and one of the few nobles among their ranks.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** Klaus struggled to pass his Forester Entrance Exam, only managing to get in after several attempts. Due to his sickly condition, he struggles to keep up with his peers in combat. This forced Klaus to adapt how he fights in battle, acting more as a supporter for his allies by attacking from the shadows. However, when Klaus needs to battle on his own, he relies on being as unpredictable as possible to the point where not even he knows what will happen when he battles.

**Stealth-** Klaus' main method of fighting, relying on hit-and-run tactics while supporting his teammates.

**Creativity-** Klaus incorporated a fighting style taught to him by his adoptive father that utilizes creative improvisation, taking whatever he is given and turning it into an advantage through skill and luck.

### Moveset

**Ability-** Pickpocket

* Trick
* False Surrender
* Leech Life
* Metronome
* Foul Play
* Burning Jealousy

### Enhanced Moves

* **High Roller Style-** A personalized fighting style created by Klaus' adoptive father. It relies entirely on the usage of Metronome, using whatever move is summoned in combination with whatever the user is using. Klaus modified it with the addition of Trick, allowing him to hold up to six moves, or six charges as he calls it. This is indicated by the red number glowing in his right eye when used. The fighting style requires creativity and luck. Klaus' modifications allow him to make unusual move combinations that either work surprisingly well together or result in what he calls "bad rolls".
	+ **Jackpot-** Klaus activates all his charges at once, letting loose a motley array of attacks. Results vary depending on what was rolled.
JoJo

**JoJo** (Ditto) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. She is a merchant who sells fabricated products to scam potential customers. As of now, she is an honorary member of the Foresters.

## History

### Prior to Rising Stardust

JoJo immigrated from the Kanto region to Virdis a year prior to the events of the story. This is due to the Ditto species being ostracized from common society due to rumors of them being spawns of Mew or soul-stealing demons. She is considered the only known Ditto in Virdis. She came to Virdis to start a new life for herself and to make quick money wherever she can.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** JoJo is a wild card in Virdis due to her being the only known Ditto in the region. She utilizes her transforming abilities to change her body into anything she has seen, whether it be another Pokémon or an item of her choosing. Her malleable body also makes her difficult to kill as most fatal attacks pass right through her. Her control over her body allows her to even imitate allies and fake their death to get a surprise attack off on the opponent.

**Merchant-** JoJo is a skilled merchant known for her forgery skills and swindling. She's always aiming to make quick cash on the next big business opportunity.

### Moveset

**Ability-** Imposter

* Transform

### Enhanced Moves

* **Unrestricted Shapeshifting-** JoJo developed a unique method of using her Transform alongside her Imposter. As long as she has seen a Pokémon once in person, she can transform into it whenever she wants. She can modulate the form anyway she wants, often appearing as the feminine version of the species (or a feminine version of a male-only species). She can even mix and match traits of Pokémon to create custom forms for herself, such as her blue and white Buneary form. The downside to this technique is that JoJo cannot use moves (unless she transformed into a specific person) and has to rely on the natural strength and capabilities of the species. She also gets exhausted when rapidly switching between forms, causing her transformations to discombobulate.
Fabrice Crewe

**Fabrice Crewe** (Marshtomp) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. He is a member of the Foresters and a Greenwood Leader.

## Personality

Fabrice is a chill, relaxed Greenwood Leader. He advocates for a peaceful existence and rarely displays any outward aggression toward anyone. He maintains a stern authority when acting as leader, but retains his comforting spirit to put others at ease. He will even comment on his opponent despite fighting for his freedom or life.

Fabrice is a romantic at heart, especially when it comes to Enora. They both have great affection for each other and shamelessly express those affections even in public.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** Fabrice underwent training with the Foresters and passed the entrance exam. He eventually ascended the ranks to become a Greenwood Leader. At one point, he trained with Sidney to learn about terrain manipulation, but with his own twist on it. Fabrice remains calm under pressure and typically relies on his environment to get the drop on his opponents, rarely engaging in direct conflict. According to most Foresters, Fabrice synergizes well with his partner/girlfriend, Enora Gagnon, considered to be an unstoppable duo.

**Leadership-** As a Greenwood Leader, Fabrice oversees the safety of his units when out of field missions, and is considered by most to be a compassionate and fair leader.

**Swimming-** Fabrice is a remarkably swift swimmer, faster than his allies

### Equipment

**Fishing Rod-** Fabrice's weapon of choice and an unconventional weapon that takes opponents by surprise. He utilizes it in combination with his terrain manipulation. The Marshtomp bobble at the end of the line not only hooks into a target's clothes/skin, but can be used as a blunt object.

### Moveset

**Ability**- Torrent

* Dig
* Dive
* Water Pledge
* Whirlpool
* Mirror Coat
* Avalanche

### Enhanced Moves

* **Mud Dive-** A combination of Dig and Dive. Fabrice can pass through any earthy substance and turn it into mud. He uses his remarkable swimming proficiency to navigate the muddy terrain.
	+ **Sinkhole-** A variant on the Mud Dive, Fabrice swims circles under his target and turns the inner area into mud, dragging down anything caught inside.

* **Solo Geyser Nova-** A combination of Mirror Coat and Whirlpool. Fabrice absorbs any special-type attacks and converts it into a condensed Whirlpool in his hands before firing a rainbow water vortex. Based on the name and implications from Fabrice, this attack likely has a variant used with Enora.
Leon Heathcliff

**Leonard Heathcliff** (Aron) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. He is a member of the Foresters and working toward becoming a Weald Ranger.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** Leon was trained by the Foresters and passed his entrance exam. Unlike most Foresters, Leon goes in with an all-defensive fighting style. He relies solely on his endurance and physicality to tank attacks before counterattacking. He uses his shield as a weapon, ramming into opponents or using the edges of the shield to deliver more damaging strikes. Of the original rookies, Leon is the toughest in terms of defense and can brush off any number of crippling blows. He was able to endure a fight with Seismic Frank, who was capable of tearing down buildings and jumping several hundred feet into the air.

**Kite Shield-** Leon's signature weapon. He amplifies its durability with his moves. He is skilled enough to wield it despite being a quadruped.

### Moveset

**Ability-** Sturdy

* Iron Defense
* Metal Burst
* Protect
* Mimic
* Body Press

## Trivia

* Leon is a part of the OC submitted characters. His original creator is AllKorean.
Asterio Visconti

**Asterio Viconti** (Shiny Frillish) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. He is the prince of the Echo Bell Kingdom and next in line to take the throne.

## History

### Prior to Rising Stardust

According to Asterio's family, he was much more relaxed despite his naturally gloomy state. He supposedly enjoyed attending the yearly festivals of his home kingdom. He and Evangelina had a closer relationship as siblings during this time, though still bantered with fits of teasing. Asterio was much more optimistic about undoing the burdens of their ancestry and restoring the Echo Bell Kingdom to a new glory.

## Personality

Asterio is an outwardly intimidating and spiteful prince, never seen without a scowl or a foreboding air hanging off him. He detests acts of happiness and presents himself as grouchy to anyone he interacts with regardless of his status. He has no interest in taking over the throne when his father retires, but doesn't say anything out of respect to his father's wishes.

However, much of Asterio's personality is merely him acting out the storm of internal despair he deals with. He claims to be burdened with unshakeable sins from his past. He is at his most volatile regarding a string of mass murders from a serial killer known as the Vermin Butcher.

Asterio tries to remain cordial with his family, though often gets into fights with Evangelina. He acts calmer around Monica, tolerating her upbeat attitude and even finding a comfort in her optimism. He is shown to be socially awkward and uncomfortable around other people, hence why he doesn't to take over as king and rather hand the position over to Evangelina.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** Not much is known about Asterio's combat experience, though he received training under the tutelage of Sir Salvo and is said to be a competent swordsman.
Nero Martius

**Nero Martius** (Krokorok) is a major antagonist in Bandits of the Forest. He is the emperor of the New Chariot Empire with the goal of subjugating the entire region of Virdis under his control.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-**

**Leadership-**

**Spearman-**

**Chariot Racing-**

### Moveset

**Ability-** Anger Point

* Power Trip
* Earthquake
* Brutal Swing
* Frustration
* Stone Edge
* Focus Energy
Enora Gagnon

**Enora Gagnon** (Glaceon) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. She is a member of the Foresters and a high-ranking member of the Weald Rangers.

## Trivia

* Enora has a few meanings depending on place of origin. The name comes from the feminine form of "Honorius", meaning "honor, esteem, dignity." Other meanings found in French and German propose it means "other, foreign."
* Gagnon comes from old French, meaning "guard dog." The name may have originated as a nickname for a aggressive or cruel person.
Armant

**Armant Dufort** (Machamp) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. He is a wandering bounty hunter working to pay off his numerous debts.

## Personality

Armant is a boisterous bounty hunter who speaks his mind when he wants to. When he first debuted, he took interest in the argument between his fellow bounty hunters, even encouraging a fight to start. He enjoys battling, going as far as searching out tough opponents to satisfy himself. He barely puts in any effort when fighting opponents clearly weaker in him, dishing out the bare minimum to win.

Despite his nature, Armant is far more learned and cultured than most would expect. He enjoys fine cuisine, engages in philosophy if prompted, and takes interest in fine art. He enjoys the theatre and attending operas. The reasoning behind his interests is that he uses them as a distraction from his obsession for an opponent that can match his strength, though he saw his obsession as potentially problematic. He took the time to ease himself away from this nature and enjoy the different cultures of Virdis, thus he is typically wandering about from town to town.

Due to his lifestyle, Armant has racked up some hefty debts just about everywhere he goes. He makes it a personal mission to pay off all his debts over the course of his life, even going as far as becoming a bounty hunter to do so. He is honest and true to his beliefs, always putting what he knows what's right first before other obligations. This is why, when he realized his new friend was Harlow of the Foresters, he decided to buy her and her team time to escape while fending off Grim Deadlock.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** Armant is regarded as the strongest Pokémon in Virdis by virtually everyone he meets. Aside from having a wealth of experience over his lifetime, his strength is immeasurable and unlike anything ever witnessed. With just his pinky, he was able to incapacitate the Thievery Twins with a quick jab to the stomach. He can shrug off buildings collapsing on top of him, break down walls by tightening his grip, and create shockwaves with a mere clap of his hands. He has full control of every muscle in his body, allowing him to move his limbs at maximum efficiency, such as when he's fighting or running. He is one of the only known Pokémon that could fight on par with Grim Deadlock, only losing by a technicality as he couldn't inflict damage on the reaper.

### Moveset

**Ability-** Guts

* Close Combat
* Darkest Lariat
* Giga Impact
* Bulk Up
* Earthquake
* Superpower

### Inherited Will

Armant is one of the eight inherited descendants of the Laurus Vanguard, possessing the Will of Dufort the Destroyer.

## Trivia

* The name "Armant" originates from the surname of Armant, derived from the Germanic elements of "heri" (army) and "man" (man).
* In the original conception of Armant, he was supposed to be a one-shot antagonist to battle the Thievery Twins. He lacked his cultured nature and was basically a "meathead" for the twins to humiliate. By the start of Part 2, Armant was updated with his new personality and given more relevance to the story.
Serell Olbrecht

**Serell Olbrecht** (Togetic) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. He is a knight of the Senbo Kingdom and a member of Erasmus Talbot's personal guard.

## Personality

Serell is outspoken and brash with how he speaks, often saying whatever is on his mind without thinking. He has a poor view of women, attributing them as irrational monsters or she-beasts, which puts him on the receiving end of his female compatriots, especially Linota. He claims to be terrified of most aggressive women.

He has a meek disposition. He is the first to speak of a situation if it gets too insane and makes comments about retreating as a first action. However, this doesn't stop him from performing his duties as a knight. He serves to support his allies from the back and fight from a distance to avoid the most harm to him possible.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-**

**Spearman-** Serell is adept at using the spear, preferring to fight at a distance from his opponents.

### Equipment

* **Halberd-** Serell's main weapon of choice. Though he is proficient in using a halberd, its main function is to act as a focus for his enhanced moves.

### Moveset

Gaufroi Burchard

**Gaufroi Burchard** (Ursaring) is a supporting character in Bandits of the Forest. He is the head knight of the Senbo Kingdom and primary caretaker of Erasmus Talbot.

## Personality

Gaufroi is the stern head of the Senbo Knights, often taking in squires to keep up with his ironclad work ethic. He carries out his duties diligently and brutally, never straying from the assigned task. His loyalties are strictly to Erasmus, having been assigned to watch over the clever Glameow ever since he was a child. He is revered by the Senbo Knighthood, especially by three squires-turned-knights.

Gaufroi retains some of the Senbo Kingdom's bias towards outsiders. He looks at those from other kingdoms with an air of suspicion, never fully giving them his trust.

His experience on the battlefield has left him jaded to the consequences of his actions. Despite his distrust of the other kingdoms, he holds no contempt toward the soldiers who fought for their people or the countless soldiers he killed in battle.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** Gaufroi is one of the Senbo Kingdom's oldest living knights still in service to the crown. He has served in wars in the past and decimated armies with his own. According to him, he took on a previous emperor of the New Chariot Empire and ripped his arm off. He has survived severe injuries that have left him scarred into the present. Even in his old age, he still trains daily to maintain his physical abilities. Though he doesn't look it, he's highly intelligent when it comes to war. He uses this perception of himself to his advantage, scaring those smarter than him.

**Axe Wielder-** According to himself, Gaufroi uses the axe to intentionally handicap himself so he doesn't kill anyone. The blade is heavy, and Gaufroi has trained to match the downward force of a swing before it hits the ground, requiring exceptional muscular control.

### Equipment

**Treacherous Confidants** is the 2nd episode of Ultimate Arena, featuring Fang from The Forest of No Light and Zaros Delarosa from The Secret of The Idol in a battle of traitorous and power-hungry antagonists.

## Trivia

* The connections between Fang and Zaros are that they are both major antagonists that lie and manipulate their enemies and allies alike with the end-goal of achieving great power. Both are members of a large species of creatures that embody the pure evil of Pokemon (Darkmon and the Tribe of Shadows, respectively) and are the right-hand man of a high authority figure within those groups (Dark and Aeternus.) Both seek to purge and kill anyone that they believe will impede their goals (Fang wants to kill his fellow Darkmon who he deems as "weak links" and Zaros tries to hunt down historians and archeologists in order to rewrite history) and both have a title that represent their murderous natures (The Grim Reaper of the Darkmon for Fang and The Ancient's Assassin for Zaros). Both have the desire to overthrow their villainous leaders (Dark and The Shadow King, respectively) and take their place to reshape the world in their own image. Both have fought and left a main character near-death (Iris' Dragonite and Flint Ravenfield) but ultimately spared them due to a sudden change of circumstances.

The Ghost

**The Ghost** (Shiny Lucario) is a major antagonist in Bandits of the Forest. He is a bounty hunter of unknown origins allied with Last Autumn and their goals to overturn the current state of Virdis.

## Personality

To most who encounter The Ghost, he is a figure to be feared, but also someone who leaves all he confronts very confused. He takes himself very seriously, possessing a strong will toward the path of justice.

## Abilities/Skills

**Overall Abilities-** According to legend, The Ghost was a powerful bounty hunter that slayed targets in the name of justice. He possesses keen awareness of his surroundings and can intercept an opponent's attacks with little effort. He specializes in hunting down his targets and killing them, making him a looming threat to those on his radar. He is strong enough to fight off the likes of Althalos, Seismic Frank, and Ursula.

### Equipment

* **Disposable Guns-** The Ghost carries dozens of guns inside his jacket. Their main function is to act as a focus for his Steel Beam to increase their piercing power and to limit the negative side effects of Steel Beam. Since these guns are disposable, it is likely they aren't designed to fire bullets.
* **Chain-** Carries a chain for one of his enhanced moves.

### Moveset

**Ability-** Inner Focus

* Steel Beam
* Metal Claw
* Metal Sound
* Dragon Pulse
* Extreme Speed
* Detect

### Enhanced Moves

* **Blossoming Rain of Justice Descends Upon the Ruined Land-** He pulls out a chain and clips dozens of his disposable guns to it. Using the chain as a focus for his Steel Beam, he can fire off an AOE energy bullet storm, extending the number of shots he can produce. After the attack ends, the chain and guns break.
* **Rising Geyser of Justice Rejoicing from the Ancient Ruins-** A combination of Steel Beam and Dragon Pulse. A powerful spiral laser.

## Trivia

* The Ghost's character is a parody of spaghetti westerns regarding the unknown nomadic cowboy with a strong sense of justice, though presented in a darker manner.
* The tumbleweed gag attributed to The Ghost references his serious nature while coming across as comically inappropriate to the time and place. However, as more of The Ghost is revealed, the tumbleweed has become synonymous with death, much like a duel at high noon.
	+ The tumbleweed is later revealed to have a Flabébé named Whisper inside it, following The Ghost around on his adventures.
* Another gag attributed to The Ghost is his inability to catch or set down his drinks without it crashing to the floor or falling off his person. This is a reference to a scene in the CDTV videogame "The Town With No Name", where a bartender slides a drink to the player character and misses via a quick time event. His inability to drink properly is also a reference to a gag in the 1980 spoof film, Airplane.
Senbo Kingdom

**The Senbo Kingdom** is one of the ten mighty kingdoms in Bandits of the Forest. It is held up as one of the great military powers of Virdis.

## History

The Senbo Kingdom rose to power after the great invasion of Virdis. The ancestral explorers hailed from a land that granted them superior weaponry to hold their own against the other invading regions. When the war settled down and a tense stalemate between the newly established kingdoms formed, the Senbo Kingdom took precautionary steps to ensure the safety of its territory and people.

The Senbo Kingdom is home to gifted individuals specialized in scientific fields, most of which regarding engineering and crafting. The Talbot family prides itself on bolstering the talents of their subjects, thus they provide the resources and materials for all to explore their potential and further their education regardless of class or upbringing. This is what gave the kingdom its nickname of "The Kingdom of Innovation". All subjects have the right to explore their talents with the goal of contributing to the development of their kingdom.

With its advancements in technology, the Senbo Kingdom is recognized as one of the greatest military powers of Virdis. They revolutionized the potential of black powder, discovered by the Great Gate Empire, and utilized it to craft firearms. This research allowed them to improve on their kingdom's weaponry, though this development has started a rise in illegal weapon trades that have reached as far as the Outlands.

The Senbo Kingdom's years of isolation has developed a sense of mistrust in kingdoms outside their territory. Most civilians are wary of outsiders that enter their borders. While travel into the Senbo Kingdom wasn't entirely impossible, it was heavily regulated by knights. This mistrust of outsiders has led to instances of torment from Senbo's subjects, often with the expressed belief any outsider might have been a spy.
