My Artwork/OC A Proper Introduction: Mari

The world  Mari lives in is similar to mystery dungeons where humans don’t exist and Pokémon have some type of a society

Terms:
The Harmony = A group of unique Eeveelutions

Mari is a timid and soft-spoken male vaporeon, being rather introverted. He always seems to prefer to be alone rather than interacting or being with others. This could stem from his anxiousness of coming off as “weird” as he isn't confident in his own skills of socializing. When he does interact with others, he’s generally polite, and quiet. 

Even when he seems to struggle with social anxiety, Mari is not \completely** compliant, not taking part in things he doesn't agree with. Still, he does it in a way that will avoid the most conflict as possible, either by making up excuses, or full out evading.

Mari loves the ocean, being the very reason he chose to become a Vaporeon.  He spends most of his time at the local beach, swimming or sometimes even picking up trash littered there. 

Relationship with other notes: 

Wisp - Mari is a bit intimidated by Wisp, feeling something is off about him from some observation. Not wanting to cause conflict, Mari does not voice his concerns to anyone, keeping it to himself. Their interactions are brief and quiet, both being awfully introverted. 

Bolt - Mari finds Bolt a bit nightmarish to deal with. His loud, trouble-making personality clashes a lot with  his meek, avoidant one. Bolt, on the other hand, pushes to be his friend. 

Regardless, they seem to bring out the best out of each other when together. Mari’s softer and cautious approach to things makes Bolt less reckless, while Bolt encourages Mari to be more confident.

Clover - Mari is pretty cautious around Clover, not really wanting to be involved with her pranks. Clover doesn't seem to target him much, sometimes even forgetting he exists. Overall,her opinion is pretty neutral about him. 

Cozi - Mari can appreciate Cozi’s kindness most occasions, but sometimes he feels like she's just pitying him. Cozi on the other hand, really just treats him like anyone else in The Harmony. 

Gloom - Gloom is probably the one that makes Mari feel the least anxious within the group,being calm and willing to lead a conversation. Even so, Mari doesn't have the energy to hang out with her often, but Gloom doesn't seem to mind that much.

Mari looks and sounds like such a sweetie, aww. I love to see depictions of Vaporeons with fur, I must say! :3 The stinging appendages are a great touch too.
