Welcome to Camp Half Blood...



Your Instructors (GMs) are...: VanceXentan Councilor of the Sons of Hermes, and Follower of Zechs Merquise, and ValenDreth Local Prisoner of the Imperial City.

=========================================



It has been some time since the gods have faced any real enemy and the Campers at Camp Half Blood have been little more than missionaries and helpers cleaning up the messes that the others have made. The pact of the Big Three has been loosened slightly and they were allowed to have a child if only to help the other half bloods get further in life. However there is a darkness brewing and the a Titan has escaped from the Nether World evading Thanatos the Lord of Death, sending a shockwave throughout Olympus as they try to cover it up and no one knows of his escape yet. The goal of the Titan is unknown however in this age of 2012 it is very ominous and a very scary prospect that this could be a dooms day scenario if not properly handled. At Camp Half Blood (Counselors are a man named Zane Harlen Son of Apollo who is a kind and gentle man. He is one of the few demi-gods to reach the age of fifty Joe Jackie Robinson Son of Athena and is the age of 19 and is a very lazy young man but very very smart. And Mr. Dionysus as the main councilor of the whole camp. The security chief is Hanzo a Japanese Half Blood, son of Ares, who proved his strength fighting in Iraq. He is very strict and does not let people cross the line out of camp.) Things are progressing as they always have and always will normal and peaceful with all the prospects of a Greek Military Camp and a Camp for normal kids. There is going to be a new quest soon and there will be destined demi-gods that will be choosen....

=========================================

Demigods have ADHD (although it varies between demigods), which hard-wires them for battle, and dyslexia, which they have because their brains are hardwired for reading Ancient Greek or Latin. Demigods inherit some control over their divine parent's domain, such as Percy's ability to manipulate water or Leo's mastery of technology and tools. Some demigods also show some control of magic or curses, such as when the Apollo cabin cursed the Ares cabin to speak in rhymes, or children of Hecate, who have an innate ability to use it. Demigods also have a wide variety of other abilities that they all share, but these abilities vary depending on their godly parent, including superhuman strength, speed, superhuman senses, agility, above-average healing-factor, durability, and endurance.

The Lost Hero mentions that the gods have influence over certain special powers that their children can receive, such as Hephaestus with his children's fire power (such as Leo Valdez), and Aphrodite with charmspeak (such as Drew and Piper McLean).

Blade and shape of sword:



Hilt:




=========================================

Personality: Unlike most of the cheerful and sneaky Hermes he is a bit of an emo kid. His main colors are dark and he is not normally very cheerful. He tends to enjoy being alone and solving puzzles and the like with his own. He has tendencies to get angry very easily under stress but is mindful on controlling himself. His hesitancy to go on quests is from the deaths of his first team and his failure to complete his second. He can be respectful and some what kind to others when he wants to be but does not seek to have friends. He sometimes has short periods of arrogance where he tends to get on peoples nerves or outright says something he would regret. However in his own right he is highly experienced and knows what he is doing most of the time. He is also a very competent warrior and strategist/tactician. His hardships have made him grow up faster than he should have as well.

=========================================

Bio:

Spoiler

Born to a hard working mother in New Jersey Daniel grew up as many others did in a rather decent neighborhood and was accustomed to being bullied and pushed around. He was rather good in sports however despite his bony frame and also did well in the classroom. When he joined Camp Half Blood it was a race more or less as he was nearly killed by lizardmen. He was rather adaptive to his new environment seeing as he came from a modern environment and was dumped more or less on his head when it came out he was the son of the Greek god Hermes. His first thoughts were of learning how to defend himself so he met with Chiron (who was still councilor at the time) and a few of the nice members of Aries cabin and learned how to fight and use close range tactics to his advantage. Though he was horrible with a bow. He also learned how to treat wounds after having to help one of his cabin brothers who broke his ankle during training and receiving further instruction from a member of Apollo Cabin.

His first quest was to save a half blood trapped in Canada he was paired with a couple a male from Aries cabin who he had befriended and his girlfriend from Aphrodite cabin who he disliked because she always was going on about her looks and how she thought everything was disgusting. By the end of the journey the Aries cabin male had sacrificed himself for the group mainly his girlfriend who unfortunately died of wounds when they reached camp. His second quest was being sent to retrieve a weapon that was capable of repelling monsters this time he was paired with two Apollo and a member of hephaestus cabins members. They eventually found it in a hot spring but lost it on the flight back unable to retrieve it they returned to the camp after nearly being killed by laistrogonians.

Daniel has since been practicing his combat skills in camp half blood refusing to go on a quest unless he has to and is found of sitting on the beach solving physical problems, reading, and every now and again trains with the satyns and other campers or sometimes by himself in the forest. He at one point during this time received a visit from Hermes and received a sword for his efforts and the condolences for his hard fought life. Daniel understood and pledged he would not end up like his half brother George who died a traitor to the camp after he tried to sell everyone out for gold.

Personality: Maxwell is a caring and takes time out of his every day to help people, this of how he meet most of his friend’s. His loves music and plays Piano, before he knew he was a demigod he was bragging about himself being so good a Piano player that he made people go into a hypnotic state. He is a very out spoken person, be mean to his friends and watch as hell fires rise in his eyes. His ADHD makes it difficult for him to focus so his mind is at most times somewhere else then where it should be,. He tries to be a ladies man, but he is a mess around girls.

Bio:
Maxwell was born a only child, and stayed that way for a very long time, he lived with his mother Raven in a small apartment just south of New York city. His mother tried everything to get him into a good school, but nobody would take a kid that had his issues.He could not keep focused for long periods of time, never learned to read well or spell. His mom told him it was okay and that it was nothing to be ashamed of being what he called himself a stupid nothing. He felt like nobody could ever like a kid like him and that the only reason his mother still had him was because she had to. He knew his mother loved him and only wanted what was best for him, but he felt like he was making her life difficult. The only joy he had in life was singing to himself and how ever to happened to hear him.

Then one day they were at a school for music and fine art and Maxwell sat down at a Piano and started playing. He was a natural talent and the school took him under it wing. He felt that someone finally accepted him and liked him. Quickly he got an audience that was listening to his songs. Then one day when he was playing for himself a kid came up to him and asked if he wanted to be his friend. This kid was Roger and Maxwell did not know it at the time, but this was going to be his best friend. They ended up spending all day at school together and when they had the chance the nights to. Roger was a always happy and made Maxwell feel better when he was blue, Roger also was the only one who seemed interested in knowing him and not just his music.

When Maxwell turned 14 he saw a kid getting beat up by some guy from his school, he ran over and yelled for them to stop, they didn't stop. This was one huge mistake by them, Maxwell placed his fist right in the jaw of the biggest of the bullies and the split quickly after. This was how Maxwell meet Henry, a kid that was the same age as Maxwell deep blue eyes and a cute smile. Henry had really low self image and Maxwell felt like it was him before he noticed his gift for music. Maxwell, Roger and Henry turned into their own little group, they spent every waking moment together and had loots of fun and they also looked out for each other.

Just a year after he had started school is mother married a guy from the marine, his name was Gordon and it did not take long before Maxwell felt like this was his new father. Together Gordon and Raven got a child named Elis. Elise was a wonderful kid and she was in fact the only girl other than his mom Maxwell could get close to without stumbling in his own words. He was rather a mess around girls, but still they came to hear him play and Maxwell did not mind that at all.

Around his 16 year birthday he was attacked one the way home from school, he was attacked by a gargoyle and hadn’t it been for a his friend Roger he would have been killed. Roger turned out to be a satyre and he killed the gargoyle fast and then took Maxwell home to tell the story of how his father was a Greek god, under this conversation a bow and arrow came over Maxwell’s head, Apollo claimed Maxwell as his on. Soon after a rather heated conversation with his mom about why she never told him he was a demigod Maxwell was sent to camp half blood

Hope its okay (2nd change is done)

[VanceXentan]

I take it Roger was a Satyr who was sent to look for demi-gods? Also add a bit more like how was he was a young child how were his friends and the like. What did he think of himself and stuff like that. (add this to history)

[TatsuaAiisen]

I have to say that, Only the 12 Olympians have cabins in camp half blood if we're assuming Percy and the events surrounding Kronos didn't happen. Also, Children of minor gods are a thing, they just don't have their own cabin and usually aren't claimed...

[VanceXentan]

This is a partial Non-Canon the gods decided to give some recognition to the lower gods sometime around the Vietnam War. Also if they aren't claimed they'd be put in Hermes cabin until they were claimed. I doubt Dionysus would send an unclaimed demi-god on a quest anyway.

[BigBullCrocker]

Name: Liwanu Yazzie

Age: 15

Gender: Male

Parent: Athena

Powers: He has a natural connection to animals, not a Eliza Thorneberry type where he can speak to them it's just he knows how to hunt and ally them.

Strengths: His small size and acrobatics makes it easy for him to sneak, he is good at climbing about the place, he knows how to make and set up a small trap

Weaknesses: He doesn't speak fluent English, he is too reckless, he is awful at long range he only uses his bow for hunting and so he will not use it in an actual battle.

Appearance: Appearance

Weapon: His tomahawk of the same name as him. It is the exact size and weight for him enabling him to use it in combat effectively.

His bow and arrow used for hunting and practice. It would only come to using this in battle if it was a dire emergency

A few traps.

Personality: He was raised far away from society and so he sticks to the ways of his tribe. He is very serious and hardly ever laughs at jokes even if they are hysterical to everyone else. That doesn't mean he is a scrooge though, he likes to have fun and is very adventurous. Once he climbed to the top of a small mountain just to get some birds eggs. He can be very sneaky and often wants to hunt the food he eats. He always tries to keep his cool, if he fell off of something into something soft that potentially saved his life then he would probably say "I meant to do that".

Bio:

Liwanu was born to a native American tribe who followed a very strict rule of not making themselves noticed. They would rather be safe than in possible danger. But this was not the way Liwanu wanted to live, he liked to push the boundaries and travel outside the zone the elders determined as safe. He hunted regularly much to his fathers dismay, he wanted him to be a hunter like his father and his father before him and his father before him. But Liwanu found it boring to skin and hunted along with his friends. They were young so the best they could catch were foxes and that was on their best of days. They usually caught rabbits using traps or their bow and arrows. But a few years later they got to go on a hunting trip with one of the actual tribe hunters and Liwanu killed a deer using his tomahawk. This was his crowning moment, the moment where he knew he'd become a hunter when he grew up, no matter what his father said. His father never talked about his mother all he knows about her is that she came to the tribe one day and that was all he was told. On a day like any other he and his friends went out to play hide and seek, this was his biggest mistake. He attracted the attention of what can only be described as monsters. They followed Liwanu to his tribe and then burnt it to the ground. The last thing his father had said to him was shouted through a smoke filled barn. "Your mother, she was Athena go to camp half bloo-" and then he was crushed by a falling pillar.

Liwanu travelled for many miles, days turned into months and months turned into a year before he found his way to camp Half-Blood. He had wandered to the city of Boston. He had never seen anything like it, the buildings were as tall as the sky to him and everyone was so lively. He was engulfed with the amazingness of the modern world. But good times must come to an end sometime. The monsters had been following him since he got there. They started following him at night, when he would sleep on the rooftops of small buildings. He got into a fight with them, killing one and escaping the other two. He remembered what his father had told him about camp half blood, he had figured out the last word obviously. A few days after the attack he was approached by someone around 19. He looked to the boy wearing tribal clothes in the middle of Boston and knew he was different. He explained that people don't usually wear that before noticing something in his eyes. They were both children of Athena. The man transported him (by car) to camp half blood where he has been training for a year.

His arrival at camp half blood was met by people calling him weird. He refused to take of the tribal outfit he wore, it was all he had to remember his father. He trained the hardest he could, he wanted to make a name for himself other than 'the weird kid' and he did, 'Liwanu'. People bothered to learn his name and he was happy about this. That is until those people had left the camp. That's right the people who had learned his name left the following year, tough luck right? He still trained and hopes people will learn his name in the year coming up.

[VanceXentan]

Bull in all fairness I'm going to give the other priority over your guy since we have six or seven people from the interest check. So until we see the rest i'll hold off on reviewing it.

[TatsuaAiisen]

I'll be dropping out of this~

[Valendreth]

Name: Myles Dereth

Age: 17

Gender: Male

Parent: Hephaestus

Powers:
Pyrokinesis
Technokinesis
Expert builder
Expert mechanic
Can sense machines, mechanics, or metal
Can identify machinery type and use by touch
Can sense faults in metal ore
Can find and sense traps in the ground

Strengths: Good in close combat and decent in mid-range combat. Horrible at long-range. Also physically fit.

Weaknesses: Very hot-headed and quick to anger

Appearance:

Weapon: Earthshatter



Personality: Myles has always been a very keep-to-himself kind of guy. He will avoid a fight if he can, but won't shy away from one if necessary. He is quite the perfectionist, not deeming a weapon or piece of armor ready until it meets his standards. If someone were to meet Myles in his forge, he would seem focused, and determined. Outside of the forge, however, he would seem much more laid-back. Certain events in his past have left him much more mature than most other 17 year old boys. But that doesn't mean he's no fun. He loves a good joke or hanging out with his friends at the campfire.

Bio: Myles was born in Texas, to a loving mother. As a child, he always loved to tinker with things, and especially loved putting things together to make something new. It was strange, as he had lived in Texas for a long time, and never once got sunburn. He had always been told that his father had to leave them due to his job, and Myles believed it up until the age of 13. Myles went to a K-12 school, and was in 8th grade when strange things began to occur. During Gym he would return to his locker to find his regular clothes torn to shreds. He would hear strange sounds at night, and always felt like he was being followed. One day, Myles asked to leave the classroom to use the restroom. When he entered the restroom, the only other person in there was John Martin, a senior who was on the football team. John was an offensive lineman, so he was huge. Myles finished his business and began washing his hands. While he washed them, John turned around and stared at Myles. The 6'4" senior, that weighed 210 lbs. began to grow, until he was nearly 1 1/2 times his original size. John let out a soft growl, then jumped at Myles. Myles stepped out of the way as John slammed headfirst into the mirror. While John was struggling to stand up, Myles sprinted out of the bathroom as the bell rang, signaling the end of the school day.

Wasting no time, Myles sprinted for his bike outside the school and pedaled hard toward his house. When he got home, he told his mom what had happened, and that's when she explained everything to him. Who his father was. Who he was. Myles packed his things and his mom drove him to Camp Half-Blood, where he now stays year-round. Myles is in charge of the Armory at the camp, and is the head of Hephaestus cabin. He has become a respected member of the camp.
