npc intro - Morichika & Nobuchika

Morichika

Perfect Link: Oshawott | Dewott | Samurott

Morichika is the younger of Motochika’s two sons and is rowdy, much like his father. In fact, in many ways Morichika is much like his father, the same Pokemon line link, the same interest in seafaring and general attitude ( and of course, the jackassery ). Where Nobuchika is the far more government minded person, Morichika is infinitely more intrigued by military, and to some extent the economy.

As age dictates, Morichika will be the second in line for the Warlord title should Motochika die, with Nobuchika being the first. Due to this, Morichika doesn’t take his classes as seriously, often caught daydreaming or skipping in favor of visiting the docks or training with his companion Pokemon.

In spite of this, Morichika is a passionate individual who loves his family dearly ( damn near idolizes his father and thinks he’s awesome; wants to grow up and be just like him, much to the chagrin of his mother ).

Nobuchika

Perfect Link: Slowpoke | Slowking

Nobuchika, as the eldest son, is the next in line to become Warlord. Unlike his younger brother, Nobuchika is somewhat annoyed by the way his father acts and his seemingly less than serious way of dealing with things. As a result, Nobuchika is somewhat detached from the family, instead preferring to spend time alone with his partner Pokemon studying or at some of the newly finished religious sites.

Nobuchika is content to let his younger brother be the one spending all his time on the ships and at sea, as he himself is far more interested in the history and science books in his free time ( what they have available in Fontaine ). To an extent, Nobuchika is somewhat afraid of the mystery of the seas, having been raised on stories that the sea monsters that lived there had killed some who ventured too far, he’s completely fine with staying on land. While he knows his way around a ship ( he’s a Fontainian for Arceus’ sake ), he won’t be readily volunteering to sail all the way up to the North.

The one thing Nobuchika takes directly from his father is his love for music. However, rater than just play, Nobuchika enjoys singing and dancing, especially in religious circumstances. It is not uncommon to find the eldest son at one of the monthly or weekly festivals partaking in or even leading a song.
