Hi! Nice to meet you!;;
Sarah Nadine Aldahard (Yes, that’s right, she kept her mother’s maiden name, and is more proud of it than anything.)
Oh, please don't.;;
Sarah adores her first name, and demands that everyone calls her nothing else.
Haha, what else?;;
Female, though there isn’t too much to see.
I've been flying in my mind for;;
Sixteen years
Yeah, I was a bit early~;;
June 14th
You'd never guess!;;
Violet City, Johto Region
Aboard an English airline, first class, if you want to be specific.
I'm proud of my ancestry!;;
Mostly English – that’s England ‘English’, just in case anyone thinks she’s talking about American - following her father’s entire family as well as half her mother’s, and the rest is German.
Hehe, what am I?;;
Heterosexual, but who knows? Sarah likes to try things.
I love them both so much!;;
Father – James Parker, 40; still living
Mother – Lucia Aldahard, 39; deceased
Let's do this!;;
Trainer! But Sarah loves to try new things, so who knows?
________________________________________
They’re not so bright, but I make up for them by sparkling so much!;;
Sarah’s eyes are a hue of deep purple – or at least, she likes to call them that. It’s just as easy to consider them a deep form of navy blue, which is a bit more of a natural shade. Her eyes are as wide as any child’s, and are always filled with happiness and curiosity.
Isn’t it awesome? Too bad it’s not entirely natural…;;
Sarah’s hair is a similar color to her eyes, though it looks considerably more purple. This is because she took a tiny bit of dye to it a few years back, and it never did come out. How was she to know that certain brands of dye didn’t like to wash out of hair? It didn’t matter anyway, since she still loves the way it looks. Color aside, her hair is too long to be considered short, but it doesn’t go so far as to reach her lower back or anything. She could get away with considering it a ‘middle-back length’, but only when it’s wet. It’s hard to tell, since the edges of her hair are in a permanently flipped state, curving, as the rest of her hair does, towards the side of her face. This is partially natural, but the rest is attributed to the pair of red and gold squared goggles that she keeps constantly around her forehead. The top of her hair parts into two or three long bangs that sweep over the rim of her goggles, but those, too, part towards the side of her face, at times nearly coming into contact with the arching sections of lower hair.
So I’m small? So what?;;
While a bit short – Sarah stands around 5 feet, 4 inches – Sarah doesn’t care much except for when it hinders her ability to do reach the pedals of a car – which doesn’t happen often, but she has yet to see how it will affect her once she reaches her real goal.
Catch me if you can!;;
Constantly on the move, Sarah actually leans towards a slightly more skinny version of ‘average’, which ends up being around 115 pounds. This is due to her constantly being on the move, almost unable to stand still.
Haha, what a funny comparison.;;
Sarah is not heavily endowed. In fact, she could almost be considered lacking, except for when she wears what she likes to call her ‘old uniform’, which is a bit on the small side – at least, the shirt is. This shows that she does, in fact, actually have something hidden away, but not enough to bother too much about. Aside from that, she’s like a somewhat large twig. Though short, her legs are long and skinny; quite boney, in fact, especially around her knees. She doesn’t pay anything much mind, however, though some people are known to complain about such an attribute.
She does have the tiniest amount of muscle on the upper portion of her arms, though. And she also has quite the endurance for one her size. This is easily attributed to her constant motion.

Don't worry, I don't bite~;;
The best word to describe Sarah is probably eccentric. She delights over the smallest of things and can spend hours on end looking at something she’s decided is ‘neat’. There’s nothing she’s found to dislike as of yet, and once she’s decided to be your friend, you’re likely to find yourself dragged along on all of her little adventures.
A short attention span is also a good phrase to coin when using it on her, as it’s been used quite often in the past. She doesn’t really have a short attention span, however; her mind just wanders a bit, wondering of what next big adventure she can get herself into. Another thing that she uses to her advantage is something that ties into this trait. Despite her apparent lack of attention, she is quite good at following conversations and other such things. If you’re hoping to catch her off guard, good luck, as instead of fumbling for an answer she’ll know exactly what was being talked about.
The next descriptive term has to be curious, as Sarah has a never-ending pool of curiosity hidden in plain sight, between her facial expressions and the look in her eyes. Anything that she doesn’t know, she’ll ask, and she has few qualms about stepping on a few toes to find the answer to her questions. She loves to explore and go on ‘adventures’, as it’s her own personal way of learning new things each day.
After curious comes something that ties in a bit – talkative. Yes, Sarah does have a bit of a mouth on her. Not one that utters nasty words or anything… just one that doesn’t tend to stop, especially when she’s got something on her mind. Rather than keep her thoughts to herself, she tends to voice them aloud – even when they’re not directed at anyone but herself. If you can’t tell, she finds it rather hard to remain quiet, even when prompted.
Sarah tries hard at everything she does, just for the pure enjoyement of accomplishing something. At times, this makes her appear to be stubborn, as she’ll not stray from a path she’s started down until she reaches the end of it, but there are ways of coaxing her into doing things, don’t worry.
Of course, there is a more mature side to Sarah, despite all the odds. This part of her tends to only come out under certain circumstances, however. You know, things like emergencies, or – more importantly – when she’s attempting anything to do with her favorite thing of all time; flying. She’ll be as attentive as a seagull eyeing the last piece of bread, hungrily taking in any information you can give her, and storing it all away to try when she gets the chance. You see, Sarah wants more than anything to be a pilot. She’ll do almost anything to find out more about her favorite pasttime. Just don’t tell her if you’ve ever been in the air before… she’ll never leave you alone, then.
Don’t be scared off by Sarah’s unyielding personality, however. Scratching the surface, not hidden at all, yet sometimes overlooked due to her more apparent traits, is a steadfast, loyal friend who may go so far as to get herself in trouble in order to help anyone she likes. She’s a wily one, mind you, and a quick one as well, but she’ll prove herself in her own little way.
STORYTIME!;;
Sarah came into this world a bit earlier than planned. In fact, she was about a month early – which was even earlier than any leeway the doctors suggested leaving, just in case. Because of this, her mother was completely surprised to find herself giving birth on a passenger flight – first class, luckily, else there would have been no room whatsoever - back to England. Her mother and father were returning from a business trip that had ended with a bit of a vacation, and it was a bit of good fortune that the flight was almost over when the contractions started. It was also good luck that there was a doctor on board who had a bit of experience in the birthing process.
The birth itself was swift, and Sarah, if not a bit on the small side for coming out so early, was born happy and healthy. Being on a plane, she was also given her first taste of flying before she even realized she was in the air. It stayed in her blood, let me tell you that.
Christened Sarah Nadine Parker – she took on her mother’s maiden name after her death when Sarah was eleven – she practically grew up on a plane. See, her father was an actual pilot on one of the airways – he had been the one actually flying the plane that she was born on, if you can believe that, which explained why her mother was on that particular one when the trip was over – and he was happy to tell Sarah about the circumstances of her birth, as well as everything there was to do with planes. He was just happy to see her interest.
And interest it was. That interest continued to grow as Sarah grew older, but she took up another keen interest aside from the idea of becoming a pilot in her own right. This other interest was Pok?mon, plain as day, and it started when one of her friends came back home with a little flying type, called a Taillow. Sarah adored the Pok?mon and played with it while her friend visited his family, and was rather upset when it was time for the flying type to leave with its partner, who was continuing their journey.
Sarah wasn’t about to let a little thing like that get her down, though. It wasn’t soon after that she began begging to be let out on her own journey. Her mother had first claimed that she was too young, but when Sarah took it upon herself to start learning what she could anyway, well, who was she to say no to her only little girl?
Sarah was let out into the world a little after her sixteenth birthday with two goals in mind. The first was the ever-present desire to fly high in the sky, piloting her own plane and exploring the world, but the other was to learn everything there is to know about Pok?mon – especially the flying types. After all, they shared a common bond of the sky, did they not?
Being the adventureous thing she was, Sarah insisted on not remain in Johto for her journey. No, she would go farther away, where even more types of Pok?mon roamed free – Kairuu.
