History

Ophelia worked as a Librarian ever since she was a small Litwick, helping her trainer, who ran the Canalave Library, to sort through the books and order them. She had also helped trainers looking for specific genres and series to find them. Opehlia knew the library from the back of her hand, only she and her trainer did. Every day they at closing time they would challenge each other to find a single book in the massive rows of bookshelves, and whoever found their's first won.

When she had evolved into a Lampent, the Librarian taught her how to read and write, first feeding her large books containing works from Shakespeare, Edgar Allen Poe, and the likes and slowly going through each and every one with her. It wasn't long before Ophelia became obsessed with reading, and would sometimes even neglect her job just to finish a good book.

Eventually, she finally became a Chandelure, being more book-obsessed than ever. She began to write her own series of novels, about a zombie apocalypse upon the Pokemon world. However, she had no idea such a thing would ever happen to their world.

When the Epidemic hit, her owner was taken away to wherever the humans had been evacuated to, leaving her on her own to take care of the library. Ophelia took the duty to take care of the Pokemon that had come to the facility for shelter, and fended infected away. However, one day, several hoards bombarded the library, and it was chaotic.

Ophelia was unable to protect the library, so stressed and desperate, she released a Flame Charge and sped everywhere, killing the infected. However, the attack came with the price as the building burnt down, killing the others in it. She was helpless to dissipate the fire, being a fire type herself, and every time she swatted a flame it would only grow.

The Chandelure had lost everything she had that mattered to her. She grieved for days, sitting in the pile of rubble she once called 'home'. Eventually, she decided to move away from the site, taking a blank book with her. Nothing mattered anymore, because everything that did was now gone, but she decided. 'Perhaps I could make something matter.'

And without that final thought, she began to travel the world, recording her post-epidemic life into something that mattered.

User Notes-

- She writes down info about the infected/undead she meets and living.

- Ophelia likes reciting works from Shakespeare. Notably 'To be or not to be' from Hamlet.

- She loves story telling.

- She has a wider range of knowledge than most due to her reading habits, however, she was more biased into fiction books, and thus, knows more facts about fantasy stories than she does of things like Chemistry.

- Ophelia is reserved, and thinks before speaking. She takes all ideas and opinions into account and is a respectful listener.
