Biography: Born and dropped off at an orphanage in the Kanto region, Marilee was adopted at age five by a couple from the Kalos region, which they moved to shortly after. Home was found in Laverre city, and to help Marilee feel more at ease they got her a Pokemon egg, which hatched into an Eevee that she named 'Nix'. With Nix, Marilee spent many a day wandering though the woods around Laverre, always trusting her friend to keep her from falling into any serious trouble.
When Marilee was ten, the two of them were separated while playing hide-and-seek, and Marilee became lost in the forest. Frightened and wandering ever deeper into the thick woods, Marilee dd not realize that the sun had nearly set, and that the Phantumps and Trevenants which called Laverre's forests home were stalking and herding her through the trees. Nix knew the danger though, and spent the entire night tracking Marilee's scent and footsteps through the tangled undergrowth. Nix found her friend just at the moment a Trevenant moved to steal her away, and attacked the Ghost with reckless abandon. Knowing that she was at an extreme disadvantage against the assembled Phantumps and Trevenants, Nix knew that she had no way to actually stop them all, but hoped that she could at least provide a distraction so that Marilee could run away; but then, to everyone's great surprise, Nix evolved into an Umbreon. Her selfless act in protecting Marilee had triggered the evolution, and gave Nix the strength to chase the Phantumps and Trevenants away.
Marilee's parents were furious and thankful in equal measure, when she returned home the next morning, and forbid her from entering the forest for the next six months. Not one to have her curiosity held back for any reason, Marilee entered the forest again not a week later, this time intentionally when the sun was setting. With Nix's help, she asked the Phantumps to take her to wherever it was they had been, before Nix had intervened. They led her deep into the forest, eventually leading her to a work site where a group of Trainers dressed in fancy red suits were illegally logging the trees at an alarming rate. The Phantumps and Trevenants were kept back by a handful of Darmanitan, which kept them at bay with Psychic attacks while in Zen mode. Marilee devised a plan, where the Phantumps and Trevenants would threatening the Darmanitans and make them enter Zen mode, at which point Nix would jump in to finish them off; a simple, though solid, strategy. The plan worked beautifully, and after the Trainers called back their Darmanitans the Phantumps and Trevenants quickly overran the operation, smashing the equipment and chasing the offenders out of the forest.
It was this event that inspired Marilee to become a Pokemon Ranger, a goal which she spent the next six years working towards, successfully become a Ranger a few months after her sixteenth birthday. She dedicated herself to combating the ecologically harmful activities of Team Flare. However, upon hearing of the invasion of Hoenn by the Rule Coalition Marilee suspended her battle against Team Flare, and raced to the embattled region to assist in its liberation.

- History/Personality: Nix was given to Marilee, while still an egg, by her parents. The two friends grew up side by side in the forests surrounding Laverre, getting into all sorts of trouble and adventure. Nix evolved into an Umbreon one night, while protecting Marilee from a group of Phantumps and Trevenants. Oddly enough, Marilee became fast friends with the spirits that wandered through Laverre's forests, though Nix never entirely forgave them for putting Marilee in danger. When Marilee went to train as a Ranger, Nix became her Parnter, and travelled with her friend wherever she went.
Nix is extremely proud of her bond with Marilee, and acts very aloof around Pokemon which she captures with her Styler. Nix will boss them around in an imperious manner, and sometimes has to be reprimanded by Marilee for taking things a bit too far. Though Nix knows that Marilee would never abandon her for another Pokemon (as if she would let her!) she can't help but feel a little bit threatened by any newcomer, however temporary they may be. Around the Partners of other Rangers, or Pokemon with Trainers, Nix is perfectly amiable if somewhat vain about her own abilities. When Nix knows ahead of time that she will be meeting such Pokemon she goes to great effort to preen her coat, and demands that Marilee brush it for her until it shines; very uncharacteristic under any other circumstances.
Optional Section:
Personality: Unlike her Partner, Nix, Marilee tends to be somewhat withdrawn from other people and very open with Pokemon. Which isn't to say that she has any trouble interacting with people, only that she feels more at ease in group social situations with Pokemon. She is also stubbornly devoted to the complete destruction of Team Flare, and has pursued that goal with a single-minded determination her entire career. Her end-game is to gather enough evidence to bring down Malva, of Kalos' Elite Four and a confessed member of Team Flare. As of yet, she has not found anything which would allow her to arrest Malva, or otherwise justify taking direct action against her.
Likes: Eeveelutions, sleeping under the stars, simple foods, beating up members of Team Flare.
Dislikes: Narcissism, arrogant pricks, and orange suits; so, basically, Team Flare. Oh, and people that try to hurt the environment, 'cause she's a Ranger and all. Also, bigots.
