Personality:Aiden is the product of a tortured childhood, yet chooses not to be the man his father would want. Instead, Aiden gives off the feeling of a gentle soul. Always seeking to help others, protect others, and prevent them from going through hell like he has. Aiden is a romantic at his core, always seeking that connection with another. He is also one who keeps his emotions hidden, instead exuding a calm and gentle air. Never acting on emotion as he knows that could simply get everybody he cares about killed in seconds.
Under the armor he has built up for himself, Aiden is a bit hollow. The emotional trauma still leaving its scars on his physche. As a result of this, Aiden is deathly afraid of the dark and of chains. Two things that had been common signs that more pain was to come throughout his dark past. He is suffering from crippling depression thanks to the self-doubt that sprouted from his time with Lizzy. One of his biggest fears is succumbing to the darkness inside of himself, turning just as she did.
History:Aiden was born to a loving mother, thought such a reprive did not last long for the poor boy. When he turned four years old, he learned that he was the result of a rape... from the perpatrator of the act himself. Within minutes of learning, the boy watched as his mother was cut down before his very eyes. Then came the torture for himself, hated by a father who never wanted him to exist. The boy was victim to the chains of torture, alone in the darkness for many years and at the mercy of Kronos.
After many years, Aiden had a fellow to share in his pain. Going by Lizzy, Aiden learned that his fellow was a Daughter of Ares who dared to cross Kronos. The two grew close over the year that followed, a bond forged by their pain. Together, they escaped their hell that had been brought upon them. Aiden stealing his father's scythe as they left. For two years on the run, the two travelled all across England and did anything to survive. A time during which they had become engaged in a romantic relationship. Finally, they managed to get on a plane to the United States. Aiming to return to Camp Half-Blood, the home that Lizzy had spoken of during the time in captivity.
This was when Aiden's world fell apart. Lizzy had been showing signs of falling apart up until then, but Aiden thought that he could help her hold it together. As he didn't want to lose the girl he loved so dearly. His little fantasy of happiness with Lizzy was not to last... as on the eve of their arrival at Camp the girl turned on him. In her madness, she had reasoned that Kronos was building them up to be stronger with his torture and that Olympus had abandoned them. Perhaps it was Kronos' way that was the best, that a new empire would build under him. They could be Gods.
Aiden refused to turn back to his father, unable to forgive him for the slaughter of his mother. The result was a violent duel between the two former lovers. Aiden had gained the upper hand in this fight, but was unable to kill the girl for whom he lived. Lizzy escaped because of his mercy, running off to who knows where while Aiden was left to flee to camp. Broken-hearted and beaten down from the fight. It has been two-weeks since then.
