[attr="class","end1"]about Madeline Cruz is, at the end of the day, just a woman with ambition. Child to trainers and mediums that never made much of themselves in either respect she hopes to excel in both. She approaches life and others with a cold detachment, putting her passions first and people second in almost every equation. Bluntness and honesty are two things you can count in just about any interaction with her for better or for worse. Madeline is trans, no you're not going to know that just by looking at her.

[break][break]friends Focus by its very nature means excluding periphery aspects of life for what you really want. For Madeline this has meant sacrificing a social life in the interest of knowing as much as possible about the road to achieving her goals. For this reason most any friends she winds up making will be those on a similar path; most notably trainers that she may encounter along the way. As a friend she's likely to leave much to be desired. She's not always the best listener and she's awful at comforting people. You can count on her to be honest and loyal, but beyond that who knows.

[break][break]enemies A tendency to keep people at arm's length from a young age has resulted in the most predictable outcome; Madeline is not a people person. She's rude with a distinct attitude and when it comes to her thoughts (good or bad) she's to the point and absolutely uncompromising. This stubborn and abrasive nature can rub many, some would say most, people the wrong way. While she does care for pokemon a great deal her concern for people is much lower, and so she has little empathy (or sympathy) for those she might upset and even less interest in whether or not they like her.

[break][break]loves Intimacy is a concept farther out of her mind than just about anything else. She's never had a boyfriend, never so much as kissed a person outside her immediate family, and if you're flirting with her chances are she'll assume you're trying to be snide and act venomous in response. I'm open to exploring relationships with people she encounters often on her road to the top and I'm happy to try and build a romantic relationship, but Madeline isn't concerned about settling down any time soon and as a result these plots will be bumpy and slow.
