Eilam

sydchan

Pokemon Fankid

Son of Lucian and Aaron.

Hair Color: Light Purple, the same shade as Lucian's
Eye Color: Green, the same shade as Aaron's
Skin Tone: Light
Body Type: Eilam has an average build, slender like both of his parents and of similar in height to Aaron
Style: Eilam's style leans a bit on the punk side. Not overly so, but he likes a lot of black clothing with an edgy style. The most edgy thing he has is his tongue piercing, something Lucian in particular was appaled by when he got.

- His name, Eilam, is a variant spelling of Hebrew Eylam, meaning "boundless time, eternity." While I chose the name itself simply because I liked it, given the meaning, it can be viewed as the equivalent of a name to honor the creator, Arceus. Lucian was the one who named him, as his own traditional upbringing meant he was raised with a lot of spiritual beliefs as a common part of daily life. He's also a philosophical person in general, so he wished to give his son a name reflecting some of the core beliefs of Sinnoh spiritualism/mythology.
- Eilam has aspirations of being a world class artist. He greatly admires Burgh as both an artist as well as a specialist in Bug type Pokemon, so when the opportunity presents itself to tutor under him, Eilam jumps at the chance. He flies to Unova and apprentices under Burgh, learning all he can about art. He meets Bailey, Burgh's son, during this time. While there's a bit of tension initially (as Bailey is jealous Eilam is taking so much of Burgh's attention) the two grow closer with time, eventually dating.
- He gets his tongue pierced not long after he arrives in Unova, as it was something he had been interested in but knew his parents wouldn't approve of him getting. Plus Unova is more permissive of piercings in general, so why not embrace some of the cultural differences. Bailey ends up with a bit of a fixation on it, as all Eilam has to do it stick out his tongue at him to get him flustered.
