Vipul is one of my favorite characters, he's quite the opposite of what people expect a Lucario to be. Rather than be a quiet, serious fighter, Vipul is a flamboyant treasure hunter who seeks equal parts loot and booty. Using expert tracking skills, in lieu of his incredibly poor sense of Aura, he has gained a reputation for discovering rather rare caches of treasure and artifacts. He also has a reputation for chasing after skinnier guys that are in need of 'improvement' - or a plentiful feeding session.

His M.O. is to fatten attractive guys through smooth coercion rather than by brute force, taking advantage of his manipulative nature and thus usually finding someone he is easily fooled. If there is a strong resistance, he can make use of the move Attract, which works to his orientation of males only. Vipul is a vegetarian and a skilled cook but has no problem making meat dishes for his 'victims' if they so desire it. He generally cooks spicy Indian-cuisine but is also talented at making sweets of all kinds.

Vipul is a pacifist to the point of nearly lacking the ability to perform a damage-dealing move on opponents. Instead of attacks, Vipul uses a wide array of supportive status moves such as Follow Me, Swagger, and Confide to distract opponents and avoid conflicts. He is an especially gifted user of the move Substitute and is able to create decoys of any size or shape he wishes (provided he has enough HP to spare).
