Current Technology: can't live with it; can't live without it. Trying to make a Powerpoint presentation for Volcanology tomorrow morning, and Office 365 Powerpoint keeps crashing. RIP

Going dark for a few days. I have a major project for Paleontology due Tuesday morning, and I'm nowhere near done with it, so I'll be away until I get that done. See y'all in a few days.

Isaac nodded at Chiron and dashed down the hill and into the Big House as quick as he could. He prepared a cot for the unconscious boy and was just about to walk back out when Chiron arrived. "Should I get a healer?" he asked the centaur. He had planned on doing that, but if the boy was just unconscious that was probably unnecessary, so it was probably a good idea to ask first rather than potentially waste someone's time.
Name: Velu
Age: 16
Gender: male
Species: human
Appearance: tall and slender, fair skin, white hair, wears a red fedora with a white feather, a red shirt, a red cape, brown pants, and brown boots
Brief Bio: Velu was just an explorer traveling the world until one day his travels brought him to the shrine of one of the four crystals in his world. The light of the crystals was dying as darkness began to rise in the world. To combat the darkness, the crystal gave its light and power to Velu, allowing him to become a red mage. Along with three other companions, he had to journey across the length and breadth of his world and into the very heart of the world to confront the darkness and restore the power of the elements to the four crystals.
Summons: Bahamut, Ifrit
Weapon of choice: sword
Magic: fire (1-3), ice (1-3), thunder (1-3), cure (1-4), heal (1-3?) (starting with these at lv 1, will gain others later) will also acquire: life (1-2), mute, slow, stop, sleep, dark, confuse, haste, break, exit
Abilities:
Weaknesses: his only real weakness is that he doesn't have any particular strengths
Strengths: as a red mage, he is versatile in his ability to use black and white magic as well as physical attacks, but about halfway through the game he tends to level off and fall into a second or third position in terms of usefulness. He is also unable to use any ultimate spells/weapons. Overall, a fairly well-rounded character with no particular strengths or weaknesses (jack of all trades, master of none).
Wait, so are we using established characters from the games, or can we make up our own original characters?

Isaac waved goodbye to his dad as he hopped out of the car and began the walk up Half-Blood Hill. He climbed up the hill and past Thalia's Pine, and then he saw the boy lying on the ground. He rushed to the boy's side. "Are you alright?" Isaac asked the boy, kneeling down and taking the boy's arm in an attempt to help him stand.

Name: Isaac

Age: 14

Godly parent: Athena

Appearance: short for his age, skinny but with some muscle definition in his upper body, lightly tanned skin, honey blond hair, gray eyes, wears an orange Camp Half-Blood t-shirt, shorts, and sandals

Background: Isaac was born from Athena and a military history buff. He was raised by his father, who never spoke about his mother besides the enigmatic phrase "she was a goddess." Isaac was home-schooled by his father and two professional tutors. When Isaac was 5 years old, his father began teaching him how to use various types of swords. Isaac took to swordplay like a fish to water and quickly became competent with most Greek and Roman styles of fighting and has also picked up some other styles, but he is less accomplished with them. At the age of 12, his father escorted him to Half-Blood Hill and sent him to Camp Half-Blood. There had been no attacks from monsters, but his father knew that this would not last much longer and Isaac would need to learn from more experienced teachers if he was to survive. Athena claimed Isaac shortly after his arrival, and he quickly made himself at home at Camp Half-Blood, though he still missed his home and his father. He goes home every fall, but comes back to Camp Half-Blood every summer and has grown to enjoy and look forward to his time at the camp.

Power: intelligence/cleverness, nimble and light on his feet

Weapon or gifts from godly parent: a knife that transforms into a sword. This was a gift for his 12th birthday. It has a handle shaped like an owl, and when in sword form it can change into any type of sword he wants with a single thought.
I call dibs on Tails, in that case.
@Akayaofthemoon I think working on the pod would probably be the best way to start getting my character interacting with the rest of the crew since having him in the med lab would leave him all alone for a while. And he'd probably have been in the med lab working on the Ulnar anti-venom up until that point anyway, which would make having him still doing that and having no further interaction with the crew rather redundant.

Well, most FF parties tend to be 4 or less, so having a small group makes sense.
