APPEARANCE --

As far as appearances go, Kerry-Anne was always pretty ordinary. On the petite side of things, she stands 4'10" tall while weighing 88 lbs. Her straight brown hair goes down to her waist, and she keeps it combed and free of tangles, but little more than that. The only odd thing one might notice are her eyes...

That's because Kerry-Anne was possessed by a Dhelmise, turning her into a Type C Dhelmise Pokemorph. The extent of externally visible changes was limited to her eyes, which were formerly brown, but now are red with slitted pupils the shape of a compass needle. On the inside, the ghost has had more influence. For reasons she can't explain, Kerry-Anne feels compelled to carry around a battered wooden ship's wheel on her back, and a polished brown anchor that weighs over 400 pounds either in her hand or, when she needs to free both her hands to do something, with one or both of her legs wrapped around it. However, the strain of holding these items is much lessened by her connection to the ghost, making it feel more like a 50 pound backpack would to an ordinary human.

She can transform into a Dhelmise, but she doesn't know she can do this and would probably have no intention of trying. In her Dhelmise form she looks like a normal Dhelmise but wrapped around her particular ship's wheel and anchor instead of a generic looking one.

Kerry-Anne knows the following moves:

• Rapid Spin: Kerry-Anne stands on tiptoe and spins herself around really fast. Does nothing, but it's super fun!
• Anchor Shot: Kerry-Anne swings her anchor, wielding it as comfortably as if it were an extension of her own arm. It's slow, and doesn't reach very far, but if it hits something, it's going to leave a mark.

As far as outfits go, Kerry-Anne only has the one, but it's quite durable, made of waterproof orange fabric and consisting of a jacket, sleeveless top with a picture of an anchor on it, pants, boots, fingerless gloves, a hat with a comical-looking skull and crossbones on it, and the odd bit of seaweed she discovers still stuck in it - these usually go into her mouth. The whole thing is held together with numerous belts that also secure Kerry-Anne's belongings on her person.

PERSONALITY --

Kerry-Anne is the kind of person who strives to bring a ray of sunshine into the lives of everyone she meets. Cheerful, generous, enthusiastic, and gregarious, she loves meeting new people and would do just about anything to help out a friend, and almost as much for a complete stranger. She truly tries to see the best in people as well as Pokemon, but her own naivete can get her into trouble. She hasn't quite figured out that not everyone she meets is, or even wants to be, a good person, though she will approach Pokemon known to be aggressive with more caution.

She has a few odd quirks when it comes to food. She will ravenously devour just about anything as long as it came from the ocean. She also has a fixation on eating seaweed, and if she isn't snacking on it from her own food supplies, she will attempt to get it "fresh" from the source.

One other thing Kerry-Anne loves is jokes. She will joke her way through even morbid situations, often poking fun at herself, but will never joke about someone else in a mean or hurtful way. Depending on the person involved, it might come across as endearing or annoying. For sure, Kerry-Anne is a child, and she embraces her childishness without guilt.

It's very unusual to catch Kerry-Anne not smiling or laughing, as she gets over most minor hurts easily. But there are two things that will cause her to become very upset. One is asking her anything about her past before she came to Torrenta. The other is trying to physically separate her from either her anchor or wheel. The latter, especially, causes the Dhelmise's latent instincts to kick in, and she will become extremely controlling and clingy over all of her possessions - and all of her friends. At worst she will throw a tantrum that is as unpredictable as it is volatile. Crying, screaming, and even physical violence may result, making it challenging for anyone to get to know her beyond a surface level.
