"Jealous? ME? Never...I'm in my own category" - Preston
(s)AINT by Marilyn Manson | Love and Marriage by Frank Sinatra | Cut the Cord by Shinedown
Name:
Preston James McTavish
Nickname:
Prezzy, Preston-James (usually when he's in trouble), Arrogant Ass—eh. Just don't call him "PJ" that name annoys the hell out of him.
Birth Date:
April 10, 1992
Age:
24
Gender:
Male
Sexuality:
Heterosexual (Bi-Curious)
In Depth Appearance:
Preston wears handsome like a prince, and that’s not even the worst part. The worst part is that he knows he’s handsome. He may not be as hot as the Children of Aphrodite, but the Children of Hera were one of the Top 3 during The Judgment of Paris. His hair is silky to the touch. When combed and nourished with oils, it looks like whipped chocolate. His hairline is always immaculate, mostly because he’s his own barber. He wouldn’t dare trust some amateur, touching his hair. His eyes are a bluish-grey and his skin without blemish—the finest cream. Preston always likes to dress his best, wearing clothes from suits to fancy sweaters. His figure is rather thin and lean. He stands 5’10” and weighs 165 lbs. He works out mostly to look good for his self-expectations are through the roof.
Clothing Style:
Suits, ties, leather shoes, sweater vests, sweaters, turtle necks, khaki,sunglasses, wristwatches—he wears the most expensive clothes, and he wears them for himself. So don't scuff what you can't afford. He will collect.

Personality:
The Son of Hera is quite the character. His arrogance has no peak, but unlike most assholes, he can actually back it up. Hera raised him to be the best and so he strives to always be above others. Some people loathe this characteristic about him, while others pay him no mind. There are a unique few who can tolerate his pompous behavior, and usually those people either: a) have a sense of humor, b) look up to him (as they should), or c) have a tough skin. Sensitive people will have their emotions exploited by Preston. His words can be rather cutting.
Now, after reading this, some people are expecting a braggart. No…not entirely. Preston doesn’t usually have to announce how great he is for most can see it in his looks, how he carries himself, and his scores. He does his best and that should be admirable enough.
While at Olympus Academy, Preston has set himself up a nice counseling business where he will listen to the relationship problems of others. He likes to know when a couple plans to get married, and he does his best to help couples facing discord to resolve their problems so that they can stay together. He highly frowns upon divorce and breakups for the wrong reason, and even more so on sexual assault. For a special fee, demigods can pay him to take out those mortals or other demigods who have wronged them. Good or evil; it depends on how one looks at it.
Preston actually has a personality disorder where he can harm and murder others without feeling a hint of regret. People who tend to consult that side of him are wanting that person who hurt them to disappear, and he will gladly make that happen if one were wronged.
Background:
Okay, wait, I’m telling this story. Once upon a time, my rich asshole of a father met my cold bitch of a mother at a banquet in Manchester, England, and then I was born! Heh, if it was that simple of a story. Their relationship is a complicated one. It even confuses me sometimes. My father is named, Richard James (see where I got my middle name?) McTavish, and he’s a pretty famous entrepreneur. He’s basically paid to travel and solve simple problems involving organization and talent management in corporations. My mother, well, she was drawn to him by accident but she says that my father radiated in the room and that she couldn’t resist a dance with him. They danced and lingered in each other’s company, and not once did they say anything kind to one another. It was a battle of wits or perhaps that was how it appeared to everyone else. The two were practically randy for each other and every time mother comes to visit, the room tends to get a little warmer.
I was told that while mother was pregnant with me, she left my father alone to lay in Zeus’s presence, harassing him with her swollen womb. Hm…I suppose I’m lucky to be alive. She eventually gave birth to me and carried me between the mortal realm and Olympus, flaunting me to the other members of the dodekatheon. I grew up with the silver spoon in my mouth as they say or fortunate that my mother was one of the most influential goddesses in the universe.
I was home schooled for most of my education for my mother feared my powers affecting the other children. I almost didn’t get to attend Olympus Academy because my father was so intrigued by my gifts that he wanted to use me for his business. I would have had a full-time professional job, and I wouldn’t have to get a degree. Sighs…Hera refused, and forced me to go to this school of demigod idiots, promising me that I’ll learn something. We will see. Maybe this school will be amusing.
Extra:
Hm...do I want to say the same gods and goddesses again? Nah.
Godly Parent: Hera
Relationship With Godly Parent:
Hera loves her son, and is actually pleased that he turned out looking better than her last son *coughshephaestuscoughs* Because of this, she absolutely spoils Preston. Since he enrolled in Olympus Academy, he hasn’t seen her around as much, but he knows that when he returns home for the summer breaks, Hera is always eager to hear about her son’s time at school.
Godly Abilities:
Mesmer – Preston has the power of speechcraft and when he uses a certain tone of voice that he calls Mesmer, he can influence others to do things they may not have ever done, might have done, or wouldn’t have done to such a magnitude. His powers work best on the mentally unstable, the emotionally weak, and those who let their emotions get the best of them. When he speaks, his voice bears an eldritch resonance that can easily reverberate and slip into the conscious of others, seemingly hypnotizing them. Most don’t know when they’re being affected by his suggestions until it is too late.
Vengeance – This is the dark side of Preston that shows itself when he is either avenging someone or himself. This power is a part of who he is and what his mother created him to be. When in this mindset, Preston’s strength, speed, and mental fortitude are increased until he has sated the wrong that was committed against him or others. In this mindset, his psychology is equivalent to that of a serial killer’s. It is quite scary.

Delving Deeper
Quirks/Oddities/Habits
- Preston has the bad habit of being painfully honest. The truth hurts and he's rather frank about it. Goodbye feelings.
- Sadistic; one might not have expected it, but then how could you not? He is the Son of Hera. If you thought the young man was going to be born on a bed of roses, you got another thing coming.
- Vain; he will get up early just to spend a good hour cleaning and grooming himself before he goes to class.
- Envious; now, he's not envious when someone tries to get on his level. Huh, they'll never reach it. But he doesn't like being cheated on, ditched, or side-lined for someone who he deems to be insignificant.
- Vengeful; when wronged, he will be avenged.
