Elite Four Will

Born in Sinnoh, Will had the unfortunate luck of being born a boy instead of the girl his parents had hoped for. The couple hadn't really wanted another child, but when his mother ended up pregnant anyway, they'd reconsidered the idea if their baby would be a girl. But when they had a son instead, they left their son in the care of other people and resumed their lives. It was Lucian, Will's older brother, who stepped up to provide the emotional nurturing the baby needed, spending time with him and, as Will grew, making sure to encourage his blooming personality and interests. He guarded him from their parents' indifference as best he could, though not always successfully-- their parents' favoritism of Lucian was painfully obvious.

Will fell in love with acting, participating in school plays, Lucian expressing pride in his brother's hard work, always willing to help the boy practice or do his homework, and never missing a single production he and his classmates put on. This continued until the boy was around fourteen  

:libra: Lucian: His brother and the person who raised him, Will adores Lucian and shares a strong bond with him. Like most siblings they enjoy teasing one another and occasionally argue, but despite their differences in personality and where life has taken them, they remain close. Though amiable enough with others, Lucian is the only human who Will truly trusts, and the notion of losing him or being separated from him in these end times terrifies Will to no end. He holds no ill will towards his brother for being their parents' favorite, but all the pretending in the world will not erase from his memory the faint realization that, should one of them be fated to die, his parents would wish death on Will, a fact that Will feels deepest shame over. His parents' dislike of him is one of few topics he would never willingly broach with Lucian.

He called his brother 'Lucy' all the time as a child but now only does so when the two are alone to avoid embarrassing him. 'Lu' is a nickname he'll use in public.

:libra: Bertha: Met her through Lucian. Bertha is the closest Will has ever known to a mother, the woman fussing relentlessly over him and Lucian whenever she is given the chance. In many ways she filled the hole inside him left by his parents' absence from his life, but in other ways it just made it--and continues to make it--more pronounced. Despite Will's best efforts, it has not escaped him how desperate he is for her approval, and deep down he's aware it's because unlike his mother, she seemed eager to get to know him. Will regrets not allowing her to get as close as he could have, and refuses to admit it's because he feared putting her in a position from where she could hurt him.

:libra: Karen: Met her at the Elite 4 shortly after becoming a member; Karen and Will had a very brief romantic relationship when Karen approached Will and confessed she thought he was cute and wanted to try dating. Having been searching for a wife in order to give his parents the grandchildren that Lucian had no interest in providing, Will was more than happy to accept, especially as he was flattered by the fact that Karen had approached him-- no one ever had before. Unfortunately he found out pretty quickly that he was not attracted to her in any sense besides friendship, with Karen adding that there was a good chance he was gay. Though not entirely sure he was, Will admitted that at the very least he was not attracted to her and the two ended the relationship on amiable terms, remaining friends. He worries for her but at the same time, like with Bertha, he's convinced himself that she's simply far too strong to have been killed.

:libra: Lance: The Kanto-Johto Champion started as a peer and became his boss. Though Lance kept to himself at first, Will didn't mind his company and began to enjoy it when Lance returned years later to become the Champion, becoming more social in the process. Despite this, the two were never close the way Lance was with other gym leaders and E4 members, and Will did not push to try to change that, respecting Lance's apparent choice to keep their relationship at the friendly acquaintance level.

:libra: Cynthia: His brother's boss. Will has met her a few times and thinks she is a strong, capable leader. He also finds her to be pleasant company and a brilliant mind; could listen to her talk about her mythology studies forever.

:libra: Gold: Met him briefly when Gold came through the E4 to challenge Lance. Will was impressed by his battling skill and enjoyed his warm and friendly personality for the few minutes he got to witness it, but was exasperated at his low intelligence. As it has been many years, the psychic specialist has mostly forgotten him.

-Will levitates his pokeball in his Gold/Silver/Crystal sprite, so we assumed he had psychic abilities like that of Sabrina.
-he is the only one of the brothers to have notable psychic powers, as Lucian's are still dormant
-he can't fight with his psychic powers quite like a Pokemon can, but he can use them to chuck something sharp at an attacker and has used his knife as a long ranged weapon this way
-he is a huge comic book nerd and based his Elite Four outfit off of a superhero called The Masked Magician
-has a habit of singing or dancing whenever Lucian plays an instrument
-unfortunately that version of the song is the best I could find, or else I would have used a normal lyric video; proceed with caution if you've never seen Homestuck or you might get spoiled
-the theme feels very much like a 'Will' song but doesn't completely fit grumble grumble
