Scarlett Elizabeth Connery

Name: Scarlett [Red] Elizabeth [Pledge to God] Connery [Warrior - Lord]
Gender: Female
Age/birthday: Sixteen, January 10th
Godly Parent: Bellona, the Roman Goddess of War
Cohort: Second
Mortal Parent: Xavier Connery - The last thing Xavier had in mind when he entered the military was family. His intentions were forward and focused, he was to be honorable and serve his country. That all changed when he met Bell (Bellona, but y'know, mortal figure and such). She was everything he dreamed of in a wife, and then some. She was direct, motivated and original; perfect for him. When Bell told him that she was expecting a child, the man was overjoyed. Sure, it was taking place in a military setting, but he felt as if his world was falling into place. That all changed once she disappeared, leaving him with a beautiful child. Xavier named her after the color of her mother's hair; Scarlett. Ever since then he has been in and out of military deployment.
Biography: Being born under a parent with military origin isn't exactly all bread and circus. Scarlett's father avoided service until she was about five. His trips would leave her with a nanny, a new one for each deployment. When her father was home, she listened to him. Order was drilled into her head, but it also made her wary of trusting and taking rules from those with 'authority'. She deemed her father worthy of respect, but her nannies? They were always questionable, babbling on the phone about their breakups or hookups. Scarlett never fully trusted them, and would rebel against their orders. Xavier punished her for this of course, but she didn't mind. To her, she was fighting a worthy battle. School, on the other hand, was a completely different battle.
Scarlett was ADHD, and hated sitting still. She adored recess, and despised reciting the alphabet. Most considered her a normal child, who just had focus problems. Near the end of her sixth grade year, they were questioning that fact. Doctors suggested medication, which she quickly refused. They hadn't earned her trust, why should she give it to them so willingly? That was the day she decided to run away. The plan wasn't exactly thought out, and she soon got herself into trouble. Lupa, the wolf, found her, and told her about camp. Scarlett liked the idea of being special, and learned to respect the wolf. She was off to camp shortly after, and adored it. The fighting, action, and strategy was her strength, and she was sure to execute it as such. Camp Jupiter was her new home, a better home compared to the small apartment in Oregon.
Appearance: Standing at a tall 5'8", Scarlett attempts to stare down most that meet her. She may not seem like much, but under plain tee shirts and jeans the girl is surprisingly muscular. She doesn't really show it though, as the teenager prefers to dress in modest, gender neutral clothing. Fighting isn't really something you do in a skirt, is it?
Scarlett's face is rounded and smooth, like an oval. Her skin is tanned from training and natural color. Her eyes are shaped like almonds and a deep brown color. She isn't very fond of them, and would rather have a bright green or blue set of orbs. However, she doesn't really talk about it. Her hair goes past her shoulders in long, cinnamon/caramel colored waves. The most advanced hairstyle she ever wears is a ponytail, because she doesn't see need for anything else. Scarlett does brush her hair though, so it's not always in tangles.
Personality: Scarlett is a focused girl, depending on what you deem 'focused'. If you asked her the names of ten of her cohort mates, she would hesitate. That's because she stays driven on one topic. Fighting. She strives for everything about the topic of war, from leadership to strategics. The teenager wants to be confident with her skills, and will keep working until she is.  
When asked questions, the girl answers directly. Scarlett strives on being honest and direct, hoping that her replies leave few questions. She despises the sugar coating procedure, that most of her nannies would use. Despite her distaste in open ended questions, she doesn't mind hearing things from other people. If it means the improvement of camp or her skills, she will listen. Scarlett is also fairly original with her battle tactics. She isn't afraid of using methods from different cultures. The only thing she will avoid is any criticisms towards her. Scarlett's personal success or doings is something she will defend to no end. The demigod analyzes most of her choices, and hates hearing that she did something wrong.
The last thing you might want to know about Scarlett is that she doesn't really care about the problems of others. She is insensitive, and this might be due to her recent obsession with battle skills. Friends aren't something she is interested in.
Flaws: Scarlett is insensitive to the problems or concerns of others. She only really cares about her goals, such as improving herself and making new tactics. Anything else doesn't matter to her, and this could make her oblivious to issues.
Talents: Fighting and strategy.
Powers: None
Weapon: Scarlett likes fighting with an array of weapons, but 'Custos Domus' (the Protector of Home) is by far her favorite. It was given to her when she first entered camp. The dagger is eighteen inches in length, and forged of imperial gold. It's grip is comfortable, and provides her with all she needs. The teenager will also use a shield occasionally, but she isn't specific.
Chosen Perk: Attack
Sexual orientation: Heterosexual
Other: Scarlett looks like Shelley Hennig

Carter James Fisher

Name: Carter [Transporter of Goods] James [Supplanter] Fisher [Fisherman]
Gender: Male
Age/birthday: Seventeen, July 3rd
Godly Parent: Nike, the Goddess of Victory
Mortal Parent: Micheal Fisher - Determined to make a name for himself, the man went to law school. It was during his twenty third birthday party (open to the public, of course) that he met the Goddess. She was radiant and confident, the ideal figure that Micheal had in mind for a girlfriend. They were supposed to be a little fling, but that all changed when he was given a child directly after he graduated. At first, he was furious. They had ended about ten months prior to the baby's birth, and Micheal hadn't expected anything more of the relationship. He married shortly after, just so he could stabilize a job before Carter got much older. His wife, Georgia, wasn't exactly the type of love he needed. She was a kind, sweet girl that he knew would take care of Carter as if he was her own child. Throughout the next few years, he had affairs left and right, all of which were unknown to Georgia.
Biography: Carter wasn't exactly welcomed into Micheal's home until he was proven to be his. After that, his father was quickly married by the time that the demigod was about fourteen months old. Carter wouldn't know the difference between Georgia and his actual mother until much later in life. Anyways, she took care of him, waking up when he cried, or playing with him during the day. Micheal spent most of his time working on cases, devoting his life to the firm. Georgia didn't appear to care, as she just enjoyed the time she spent with the little toddler Carter.
As he began growing, the demigod started causing problems. He was temperamental, and would get into small arguments with Georgia. The problems were minimal at the time, and she didn't think much of them. When he started going to school, Carter was always trying to one up the other children. Most of them simply ignored him, but he would get into fights with those who were as stubborn as he. Micheal wasn't one to discipline, he didn't have time, and Georgia was too kind to even try. Therefore, Carter just continued on his way until his father finally dropped the bomb on him. Unlike most demigods, he was enthused. He was so ready to get up in leave, that he packed his bags that night. Georgia drove him from their house in Manhattan to camp, and they haven't really checked up on him since.
When twelve year old Carter first arrived at camp, he had trouble making friends. The other kids didn't have time for his stupid fights or his meaningless statements. So, around the age of fourteen, he changed. The boy became more suave and charming, with his attitude on the side. People took to it, and he began getting friends. If anything, this increased his ego and made him more of a jerk, but at least people enjoyed his company now.
As Carter turned fifteen, he went on his first quest. Four other people accompanied him, a daughter of Khione named Isabelle, a son of Ares named Jarred, a son of Demeter named Kayden, and, his personal favorite, a daughter of Aphrodite named Melody. Their job was to head to Kansas and get back a wheel from Apollo's Chariot that had fallen off. It was supposed to be a quick and easy job, but when the storm spirits up, that changed. Jarred and Carter charged the monsters, and were blasted to the side. Isabelle attempted to freeze them, but it didn't work out. Melody was the last to attempt to attack them, and they electrocuted her. After her heart stopped, and she was truly dead, the storm spirits vanished and they found the wheel. Carter blamed himself for her death, and refused to talk about the quest. He will play around however much he likes, but when someone's life is on the line he refuses. The last thing he wants is someone's death to be his fault.
Appearance: Carter thinks he is attractive, it's one of his statements that is actually true. He towers over most, standing at 6'2". His shoulders are just a touch broader than his waist, making his lean figure just that more obvious. He is muscular, from years of training and his addiction to sports. He dresses well, as any semi popular member of camp should. Normally, that means v-necks and jeans, along with a pair of Nike's (ironic? maybe).
His jawline is very sculpted and well - defined, giving him a very original look. His dark brown curls sit atop his head evenly most of the time, occasionally differing in volume. The main point of interest on Carter isn't his muscles, curly hair, or fashion sense, but his ice blue eyes. Not the pretty sky blue that most have, but a clear, penetrating color that can be both attractive and intimidating.
Personality: Carter doesn't go picking fights anymore, but if the situation presented itself, he would take anyone up at any challenge. Then again, it will have limits, because he will not do anything that could result in death. The memory of Melody dying his still fresh in his mind after two years. Anyways, he is still bold in his conversations and daily doings. He can be taken as rude, but he just likes giving his opinion, harsh or otherwise. He doesn't see the need in wasting time with little lies. If he is feeling some way, he will tell you upfront. This bluntness makes him easy to understand.
Carter often disregards rules, due to Georgia's lack of discipline. He doesn't mind taking risks, and tends to act out if he is bored or annoyed with the tasks in front of him. His lack of patience gets him in trouble, but he doesn't really care.
Flaws: Carter is cocky, and often brags of his successes. His pride could lead him towards a fight that he couldn't ever win.
Talents: Swordfighting and Sports
Powers: None
Weapon: A one handed sword with a leather grip serves as his main weapon. He hasn't named it or anything fancy, because it isn't really sentimental to him.
Chosen Perk: Attack
Sexual orientation: Heterosexual
Other: Carter looks like Daniel Sharman

Amelia Jane Parson

Name: Amelia [Worker] Jane [God's Gracious Gift] Parson [Clergyman]
Gender: Female
Age/birthday: Fifteen, November 27th
Godly Parent: Athena, Goddess of Battle Strategy
Mortal Parent: Andrew Lindstrom - Andrew was sinking in debt after he graduated from college, with a degree in American History. His dream was to own his own library, but first he would half to settle for a small, bare minimum job at the local book store. The man's first week of work was average and dull, until the shop got a calla requesting all of their literature mentioning Greek Mythology. At first, he expected it to be some nutty woman who had nothing better to do. However, when Athena showed up to collect the books, he thought differently. He asked her out for coffee, and after a few intense discussions on the Trojan War, the rest is irrelevant. They had a six month relationship before she was out of the picture, for some reason that didn't leave Andrew in the best of moods. Four months later, a little baby girl was left for him. He was shocked, but still tried to take the girl in for a few months. After that didn't work out, he sent her into the foster care system, hoping it would be her best bet for the young Amelia.
Biography: Amelia never got the chance to know her history-loving, compassionate father, thanks to the foster care system. By the age of one, she was in the care of the Hansberg family, a young couple that were unable to make children. They adored the child, and gave her everything a new baby could need, but eventually their funds ran slim. The last thing they wanted to do was let her go, but they had too. By the age of four, she was sent back into the system.
The next family was the Parson's, a strict, Christian family that already had two children. Amelia was six at the time, and had no idea of her parentage yet. However, she did enjoy reading through Greek Myths, which her new parents (John and Loren) were against. So, the demigod shared books with her new siblings, Lisa and Darcy. Amelia didn't think they liked her, as the two sisters always seemed to tattle on her whenever she was reading 'risky' material. The girl couldn't help it, myths and stories were just so much more interesting than the factual things the Parsons were hoping she would enjoy. At the private school they attended, Amelia felt lost. She questioned the things she was being told, and would be quickly shut down by her teachers.
At the age of nine, Amelia had packed her school backpack with clothes, a little bit of change, and fruit. She left the cursed home in Connecticut, heading in a random direction. The girl walked north (having learned that direction from one of her readings), and was off. It didn't take long before her supplies ran out, and she was in danger of being attacked. That was when a satyr, by the name of Nate, came to her rescue. She was grateful for the help and company, as he was the first person she remembered that was nice to her. A few days later, Amelia was in the safety of Camp Half Blood's protection system.
Her life since then has been strongly set in the library and target practice. She doesn't like close combat, and prefers bows and crossbows over blades. Mostly, Amelia likes sitting in the library so she can read. It's quieter, and the books don't judge her like the Parson's did.
Appearance: Amelia is small, and often overlooked by most passersby. She stands at 5'5", with a small frame and tiny feet. She doesn't really want to be noticed, so she dresses like that. The demigod still wears skirts and dresses, but the fabric is normally dull or simple. It would be hard to spot her without her favorite ballet flats, that she wears whenever she isn't training.
Her face is heart shaped, with her jawline being a little more square-like than she'd prefer. Amelia's skin is clear and fair, rarely getting tan in the summer. She doesn't really have a reason to go outside, so she spends most of her time in the library, even when the weather is nice. Anyways, she looks like your typical daughter of Athena, with blonde, mildly wavy hair, and grey eyes. However, Amelia's eyes are little bluer than that of her siblings. Secretly, she enjoys having something that makes her a little different. The teenager likes styling her hair in braids and ponytails, preferring her hair out of her face. Amelia also has glasses for her eyesight, but sometimes she wears contacts. It depends on the day, really.
Personality: Despite all she has been through, the teenager is still very supportive and understanding. She would rather listen to a conversation than speak. She doesn't really like conflicts, and prefers to offer compromise over judgement if at all possible. Some may call her weak for this, but she doesn't want to end her conversations the way the Parsons did. Amelia doesn't think anyone deserves to be shut out.
She is also very imaginative and creative. When she could get her hands on fiction books, she would indulge in the idea of fairytales and romance. However, she remains down to earth while enjoying the stories. Facts still remain stable, and Amelia likes stability. Even though she wasn't in the foster system for long, she would rather have had a real family. Consistent things are easier to comprehend in her mind.
As you might expect, Amelia is humble and shy. None the less, she is a loyal and fierce friend. The conversation just can't start with her, but if someone was open and friendly, she would be more than happy to talk with them. She isn't used to people being interested in her.
Flaws: Amelia is very selfless, and would lay down her own life for those she is working with, even if she doesn't know them that well.
Talents: She is knowledgeable in a variety of fields, and has great aim with her crossbow.
Powers: None.
Weapon: Amelia isn't strong enough to effectively pull back a bow, so she uses a crossbow. Her aim is actually quite good.
Chosen Perk: Evade
Sexual orientation: Heterosexual
Other: Amelia looks like Gabriella Wilde

Levi Alexander Harrison

Name: Levi [Joined] Alexander [Defending Men] Harrison [Son of Ruler]
Gender: Male
Age/birthday: Seventeen, December 5th
Godly Parent: Zeus, the Ruler of Olympus
Mortal Parent: Lydia Harrison - Fresh out of high school, Lydia knew what she wanted to do. Her family wasn’t rich, and she knew that getting a college education would be difficult without any tuition money. So, she joined the National Guard in California. She was physically fit enough, and ready for training. However, when training actually began, she had no idea how much dedication this would take. Not only did she need to be physically prepared, but mentally too. Anyways, she trained, and eventually was able to serve for six years, which made her twenty four when she met Jordan [aka Zeus]. The woman was ready for college now, but she took another gap year to spend time with her new boyfriend. After three months, the two were expecting a child. Lydia’s parents frowned upon this, the two weren’t even married, but the couple didn’t care. Shortly after Levi was born, Jordan left her all alone, to return to his godly duties. She was naturally furious, but determined to raise the child. After getting a degree in nursing, she was able to spend more time with her son. The woman worked most days and some night shifts, but she still focused on making snacks for Levi after school, and made sure he knew he was loved.
Biography: Levi was born in Napa, California, to Lydia Harrison. In his younger years, his mother was working on getting her degree online so she could raise him, and get an education at the same time. After the Nation Guard, being a nurse wasn’t exactly what she expected, but the woman was happy to be helping people again. Levi wasn’t a troubled child, in fact, he grew up quite nicely in his mother’s small apartment, seeing his grandparents every other weekend. Trouble began to form when he started school.
Levi’s kindergarten class was the average American kind of group, with troublemakers, crying kids, and silent ones. The demigod didn’t fit into any of those categories. He just couldn’t sit in one seat all day, listening to the teacher. He couldn’t sleep during nap time, like the other kids. By suggestion of the school nurse, Lydia took the young demigod in, to be tested. It turned out, that like so many others, he had ADHD as well as dyslexia. Levi’s mother was frustrated by this, but never told her son that. It only meant they would need to work harder for him to do well. He never did very well in school, but he had friends that he was close to. They would help him through the day to day struggles in school. His life was essentially normal, until six years later, when he was eleven.
Levi grabbed the phone on the wall, clicking the speaker button. “Mom!” he burst excitedly, a grin spreading over his face. It was a Saturday, his mother would be home tomorrow from her trip with her friends. They talked for a good half hour about what Lydia had been seeing in Brazil. The animals, wildlife, everything. Levi wanted to know. “Did you see any jaguars, pythons?” The questions continued until his mother told him it was time for her to pack up her things. His day seemed to drag on by until he received another call, in the late evening. “Mom?” he asked, hopeful that he guessed the caller correctly. His babysitter was in the other room doing dishes at the time. When the line on the phone belonged to his grandmother, the demigod was confused. “Grandma? What’s wrong? Are you - you’re crying!” Levi’s eyes got wide with concern as he listened. ’You’re mother… Levi, honey… the plane crashed. She’s gone.’ He dropped the phone, summoning the sitter to run over as the eleven year old began to sob.
Shortly after his mother’s funeral, a satyr by the name of Philip came to collect the son of Zeus. After discussing things over with Levi’s grandparents, the two were one their way back to Camp Half Blood. Levi had endless questions for his protector, but most of them were answered when he got to camp and began training. He hasn’t gone on any quests since he arrived.
Appearance: Levi stands at six feet, evenly, and might grow another inch or so (if he lives long enough, you never know). He has a lean, but muscular build from seven years of Camp’s heavy training. While he may have muscles, the demigod isn’t one to show it off. The only time his chest would be visible is in the case of swimming, or something of that nature. Normally, the teenager dresses in jeans, sneakers and plain tee shirts. Maybe a sweatshirt on a chillier day, but nothing too dressy.
The son of Zeus has a heart shaped face, that supports a crooked grin with imperfect teeth on the average day. Levi has a small, brown mole on the right side of his face, under his lip, but the rest of his tan face is free of any other notable blemishes. His hair is orderly most of the time, but when he wakes up the light brown strands are sticking up in a random assortment of messiness, and vaguely resembling a nest. Levi’s eyebrows are the same color of his hair, and a little thicker than the average. His eyes are a dark chocolate color, with sprinkles of gold in them.
Personality: Levi is confident in his abilities, but rarely speaks of them. He may express his opinions or ideas, but he doesn’t like talking about himself. Any other topic, other than himself, is pretty open to the demigod. He enjoys being efficient, and strives to always improve his skills. The teenager can’t stand just sitting around doing nothing; he needs to move around. He’s very energetic and charismatic, and likes talking with people about things. While his sarcasm might not be very strong, he still attempts it at times. He prefers winks over witty remarks, anyways. However, Levi doesn’t really enjoy getting emotionally attached to people, considering how many people he has seen die over the six years he has been at camp.
When placed in a leadership position, Levi could be considered rude and harsh. He is very stubborn and dominant. He struggles with emotions, and doesn’t enjoy discussing them. He would rather make a plan, execute it, and move on. There isn’t time in life to waste on ideas or metaphors. Despite his potentially cold side, he still enjoys socializing and training. Yet, emotions are basically a waste of time for Levi.
Flaws: The demigod is very rational, and doesn’t really like dealing with emotional issues (like his mother’s death). He is also impatient, and doesn’t like waiting for things to be done, when he can do things himself. Levi is also stubborn, especially when it comes to his personal ideas.
Talents: Levi is skilled in the art of swordplay, but has no other significant talents. He is a notably decent horse rider, but doesn’t posses a horse to actually work with.
Powers: Electrokinesis - Due to his father’s power over lightning and storms, Levi has inherited the ability to manipulate lightning. He can’t use his power more than once everyday, for ten minutes maximum. The ways he uses the power depends on the situation, but most of the time he either creates balls of electricity or uses bolts, but as stated previously, only for ten minutes.
Weapon: Levi has tried a variety of weapons from the time he entered camp. A sword, two and a half feet in length, became his weapon of choice. It was forged of celestial bronze in the camp’s armory, and is quite average. He also uses a circular shield, forged of the same metal. His sword’s name is ‘Καταιγίδα’ or thunderstorm, in English. When not in use, Levi’s sword transforms into a simple, silver ring on his right ring finger.
