Personality:
"Hey, nice to meet you! I'm Hickory, what's your name?" which is more often than not the first thing that comes out of Hickory's mouth, followed by a barrage of question. Hickory is always full of energy, to make up for that he tries to always be doing something, may it be working on tasks, sharpening their carpentry skills or just helping around Castanet. Hickory loves meeting new people, so much so that he can be very in your face about it. While he can be exhausting at times, Hickory is truly well meaning and friendly.


Bio:
Born into a family of carpenters in a small town, Hickory spend most of his childhood not knowing anyone his age. This doesn't mean he felt lonely, he had his father and grandmother to spend time with. While still young, Hickory snuck into his family's workshop unsupervised and broke his left arm while playing with some of the tools. This incident prompted Hickory's father to teach him the basics of their field from a very early age. The Timburr spent the following years helping in his family's business by chopping wood from the nearby forest and assisting his father and grandmother in building. Hickory was content with his life, but it felt like it was missing something...

A tired and worn looking Beldum arrived at town and collapsed at the entrance. Hickory's town doesn't get a lot of visitors if any, so the Timburr was naturally curious about this strange new character. He carried the Beldum to his home, and after explaining what he saw to his family convinced them to let the Beldum recover at their place until they recuperated. When the Beldum came to, Hickory introduced himself and immediatly bombarded the poor Pokemon with questions. "What Pokemon are you? You're from outside of town right, what is it like? Are there trees like ours or are they different?" The Beldum wasn't sure how to respond at first, but eventually answered each of the Timburr's questions. The Beldum introduced themself as Scutch and started telling stories about grandeur and adventures. After listening the Timburr realised what he was longing for.

The following day when the Beldum was about to leave again, Hickory asked his dad if he could travel. While the Gurdurr wasn't entirely sure about the idea at first, he eventually caved, realising that his son was at the age to discover the world. He packed a bag with the essentials and gave it to Hickory. Hickory waved his family goodbye one last time before leaving the town he had grown up in together with the Beldum.

One day the pair was traveling through some dense fog, until they suddenly arrived at Castanet. When first hearing of the local Explorers guild, Hickory immediatly tried to convince his partner to join. Scutch objected to the idea of joining a guild and after a short quarrel between the two, the Beldum decided to leave back through the fog. However just as the Timburr was going to chase after his friend, the Beldum found themself back at Castanet. Scutch repeatedly tried to leave the city to no avail until finally giving up. That's when Scutch approached Hickory to join the Explorers.


Trivia:
- Hickory doesn't need to wear a brace around his right arm, but does so anyways so both arms match.
- While his left is his dominant hand, Hickory can't put too much pressure on it, so he learned how to also use his right hand for every day tasks, making him
 ambidextrous.
