PMD Axis

Anyway I'm pulling this character from her "retirement" to use her again in the hopes that it will give me some motivation (I've hit a real slump of late art-wise).  Guess we'll see how it goes, huh?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Here are her stats with bit more detail (since I forgot to add it in when I submitted this):

Name: Axis (Formally known as Axis Glace)
Gender: Female
Age: 17 (often being mistaken for older because of how she talks and acts)
Species: Glaceon
Height: 2' 4" (slightly smaller than an average Glaceon)
Weight: 48 lbs (being smaller, she's also a bit lighter)

Nature: Serious - She never jokes, never laughs (out of joy anyway), and rarely smiles.  Everything is about survival with her, as well as getting her job done.  She is extremely task driven and tries to never let her guard down around anybody, barricading her self and her feelings away.
Characteristic: Thoroughly Cunning - As her survival hinges on everything she does, she never does anything without a reason.  She rarely, if ever, acts on feelings, and always thinks before doing anything.  For Axis, every step is planned, every hit counts, and every attack is precise; she can't afford to let it be otherwise.

Appearance:  She looks like a Glaceon save for a few things:  her crest is more fur-like than solid, and she also has a mane off the back of her head (something she inherited from her mother) that is tied back.  The strands off the crest, as well as her paws, are covered by a larger portion of dark blue than a normal Glaceon.  Her back is marked with black, and there is a stripe that swirls through her eye, mirrored on the other side.  She's also a bit scrawny for her species, and her muzzle is more defined.
Accessories:  A black scarf with a purple crescent moon (which points down).  Obtained when joining a small, crude Rescue division on her homeworld; both the color and symbol were chosen in memory of her mother.

Move Set:
Bite - A powerful bite from the jaws, almost always used as a disabling move to cripple and/or flinch the opponent.  Growing up feral, Axis almost always lands her bite in a vital region to do massive damage.
Hail - If the area around the battlefield grows suddenly and intensely colder, Hail has undoubtedly been activated.  Axis almost never goes into a battle without using Hail as a cover.  Not only does it damage her opponents (at least those who aren't ice types), but improves her speed and allows her to slowly heal over time.  It also makes sure her other moves of the ice variety almost never miss.
Ice Beam - A beam of ice shot from the mouth, freezing anything it touches.  Although this move is pretty straight forward, Axis has found many other uses for it that are much less common.
Blizzard - Only used on special or rarer occasions, Axis freezes the air in a large area around her, pummeling and inevitably burying those around her in thick ice and snow.

Hobbies:  Besides gathering intel for her personal mission, Axis likes collecting crystals and other shiny gems.
Skills: She is very calculating, which makes her skilled in combat and able to think up super-effective strategies.  She's also extremely quick, light on her feet and nimble, able to sneak around without being detected should she so choose.
Flaws: Because she is so introverted, she doesnt' do well in groups, even if she has nothing against them.  She always comes across as cold, uncaring and distant, which makes people wary of her.  Her feral background has also made it hard to capture or help others instead of kill them; as the urge to just kill and eat has come upon her more than once.  Because of growing up alone, also she's afraid of being touched, even if no harm is meant.  Physical contact often makes her flighty, and on some occasions, has caused her to lash out.  She also isn't as physically powerful as one would normally be, having to rely on quick wit and reflexes to get ahead.
Goals: To locate her mother and father, finding out why they left and having a family again

Personality:  Extremely distrustful of others and distant, she comes across as cold and apathetic when she talks due to a mostly low and mono tone.  She goes out of her way to avoid relationships of any kind, fearing both them and Pokemon due to past experiences.  Because of this she also has a habit of purposefully choosing to not get involved with the crisis of others unless she has a good, logical reason to jump in.  She's a minimalist in both life and combat: living on the bare minimum and taking only the most necessary of actions in battle.  She's often very depressed and lonely, but is far too afraid of being hurt to try and cure such feelings; thus she has learned to ignore the pain and drives herself to feel nothing at all.  To cover up her emotions, she pushes herself to work in the hopes of finding that which she searches for, and yearns to, more than anything, find her family and be happy again.  Despite the friendly attitude of others, she's also brainwashed herself into believing that no one could ever accept her because of being feral, further convincing herself to stay away from others and not even attempt to talk to them.

History:  Axis grew up in the snowy peaks of the Sinnoh region of a world where humans existed, living with her mother, an Umbreon, and her father, a Glaceon.  Although the life of the feral family was routine, Axis was happy in the loving care of her parents.  When she was six-years-old her parents suddenly disappeared without word or trace, leaving her to fend for herself.  Axis almost starved to death, not only because she didn't know how to properly hunt and scavenge, but also because other Pokemon would think her a threat, intruder or meal, thus driving her away.  She learned with time through studying others from afar, and eventually managed to live well.  Through a small series of events however, when she was eight, she found herself at the wrong end of a Sneasel's claws and was fighting for her life.  She evolved as the battle brought the two close to the mountain's Ice Rock, and only through that event survived.  She quickly found out that, despite being in an adult form, having evolved so soon had left her much more physically weak than what she would have been had she evolved later.  She thus forced herself to focus on strategy, reflex, precision and speed rather than physical power.  Years later, and once confident in herself, she set out in search of her family, coming into contact with a crude form of rescue division and joining them with the hopes of finding clues to her parent's whereabouts.  She didn't remain there long before getting pulled into Entali.
