Personality:
Roma is sweet and kind, loving nothing more than to dote on those in need and spread her wisdom where it is needed. She views herself as a Guru of sorts for the younger generation and prides herself on her knowledge. She can be strange at times due to her spiritual nature but she does whatever she deems necessary regardless of effort or any negative consequences upon herself. She isn't scared to fight when necessary, and in her old age she has decided to re-live her younger trainer days and travel once again. Despite her age she is quite feisty and spirited when angered, and it is best not to get on her bad side.
History:
When Roma was young she traveled the world as a pokemon trainer, taking on gyms and even participating in the pokemon league before settling down and having a family. When she was twenty-three she married a man named John and had their first child, Rosa, a few months later. Her and John lived happily through the years, having two more children along the way, two boys named Jazz and Thomas. She grew older watching her family grow and broaden, first as Rosa graced her with grand-children and then later as Jazz had a child of his own as well.
Sadly life often brings tragedy as it often did, and on a stormy night Rosa lost her grandkids and Jazz to a bus crash. She had been with them at the time. Her, Rosa, and Jazz had decided to take the kids to a fair and had a great time, but on the way home a mudslide forced the bus off the road and off a steep hill. It flipped into the trees and that is where Roma's memory fails her. She woke up in the hospital with John by her side and was told the horrible news, her grandkids and Jazz hadn't made it. Although Rosa had survived, the loss of her kids and brother drove her mad and after a year she took her own life.
Roma tried to be the glue that held her broken family together, moving Jazz's distraught widower into her own home to look after her and make sure she didn't share Rosa's fate. Thomas remained aloof and distant throughout all of this, and Roma often suspected he was getting in with the wrong sort of people. This was proven after a trainer took down a bad organization and Thomas was one of the bad people taken to jail. After she had heard of what he had done to pokemon under his care she hardened her heart and disowned him, instead focusing on the family she had left.
They lived in peace after that for many years until John passed on from old age. Mariam, Jazz's widower, had eventually taken on a new husband and moved out so without John around the house seemed quiet and lonely. Roma lasted a year in the lonely house before deciding to relive her earlier happy years and become a trainer once again from scratch. She knew her years were limited, but she was determined to make a difference in the world while she still lived. And so, she packed up her things and took to the road once more.
Appearance/Physical Description:
Roma is a short, sweet looking lady with long white hair often tied in a bun with a ribbon. She has a rounded face with plenty of laugh-lines and kind ruby eyes with a milky complexion. She is quite short but not yet frail, still sturdy on her feet despite her age. She loves to wear kimonos and the occasional sundress, and she always takes along her ebony walking stick carved to look like an Arbok with garnet eyes.
