Temana Tribe (She/Her)

Personality

Ari is a bit unhinged. She has a soft tone, genuinely calming voice that contradicts much of her actions and words. She often tries to step up and be a team player, overall a bit more on the extroverted side, but she can come off as a bit too invested at times. Even then it's easy for her to feel like flipping, as she's extremely gullible, with a surprising lack of loyalty. That is, unless she were to find a mon she is willing to assist, in which her status flips, seemingly willing to tank her own game if it means her new "boss" can get even just one vote further. Part of her character is her referencing back to mons she's been assistant to, using advice or actions they've done to justify stuff she suggests or does in the game - an example being that if she were to flip and vote out her best friend, she may tell her former allies that night that she was simply following the advice of an inventor she was the assistant for, Ilijinil the Pidgeot, who once told her that if an invention isn't going anywhere good, it's best to scrap it and start anew. That sorta thing!

Backstory

She grew up being homeschooled by her parents, and staying inside a lot, so she doesn't have the same social skills that many other mons would have. That hasn't stopped her from getting out there and trying to experience everything she can, to enjoy everything she missed out on growing up! This has resulted in her joining the AAI, Assistant Agency Incorporated, a company that specializes in supplying mons with personal assistants. Ari has been a special case as a mon that generally has not done a good job with whoever she's been with, typically lasting roughly a month with a mon before being sent back to the agency. She was hired at the age of 21, and at 27 now, has been an assistant for 68 different mons with a large variety of jobs! Her most recent position was as an assistant to one of the producers of Pocket Survival, who had decided that he couldn't let the opportunity for this mon to join the cast go to waste! So here she is, recruited by the very mon she was the assistant of! Regarding her gender and pronouns, she identifies as nonbinary, something her parents were not very fond of. Despite this, she prefers she/her pronouns, which is what she grew up with.
